Chapter 13 Crafting Talismans
" For creating different types of inscriptions, the main materials remain the same while auxiliary materials change."
" I have bought wood paper made of peach wood. It's a good paper for making talismans."
" I have already prepared everything and made the ink."
" I currently have 150 energy, eh?" Jun Tianyun thought.
" Sister Qingyao, What is this energy point representing? Is it the same as Internal Energy of Martial Artists?" Jun Tianyun asked.
" The energy bar represents your Soul Energy. Soul Energy is one of the most common types of energy that exists across the universe."
" It can be used in various types of things. And making rune is one of them."
" Moreover, The Soul Energy can be transformed into many kind of energy."
" I see. So, It's different from Internal Energy, eh?" Jun Tianyun nodded.
" There are nine ranks of runes. Rank one is the easiest to draw while rank nine is the hardest.
" There is only information till the rank three runes in the Rune apprentice diary. But that's enough for me."
" Each rank one talisman costs twenty energy to be formed. So, In the real world, I can make seven talismans at one time."
" It will take six hours to replenish my 150 energy. So I can easily make fifteen talismans daily." Jun Tianyun estimated.
But that is not how it works. In other words, Rune Inscription is a money burning profession. Not many people can craft a talisman perfectly.
For an apprentice Runemaster only has a 30% success rate while crafting rank one runes.
That means, out of ten, they might be only able to craft three talismans. The rest material would waste.
However, Jun Tianyun can simulate the process and practice in God's Space. And after learning there, he can come to reality and craft talismans perfectly.
" Keep the brush steady and let your energy flow in it. Dip the brush in the inscription ink and draw the rune diagram."
Jun Tianyun closed his eyes as his hands moved swiftly. Even if it's just a rank one Fireball Talisman, the rune formation is complex for the newbie like Jun Tianyun.
*BANG!*
Jun Tianyun made a mistake as the paper crumbled. Thankfully, He can use an unlimited amount of energy inside God's Space.
" I can't do it properly. Where is the problem?" Jun Tianyun frowned.
" Wait! Drawing rune inscription! Isn't that the same as calligraphy?" Jun Tianyun thought of something.
He already received the inheritance of God of Four Arts. He has a godly talent for calligraphy.
Jun Tianyun remembered the scene where the old man wrote a word with his brush. The word became imposing as if its an actual thing, rather than some ink and paper.
" Calligraphy, Rune Inscription, they are just different branches of the same tree." Jun Tianyun was enlightened.
He again tried making the rank one Fireball Talisman. This time, he also used his calligraphy talent.
This time Jun Tianyun felt a calm feeling like he was doing something he always has been doing. His hands moved like flowing water without stopping for a second.
Jun Tianyun felt that the rune diagram is nothing more than a complex calligraphy formation. The rune diagram was changing in his mind as he continued to draw it.
The rune diagram flashed as the paper turned bright.
" Impossible! You actually learn how to draw a talisman in just three hours?" Su Qingyao's face turned strange.
" Why? I think it's slow. After all, It took thirty minutes to make one. Moreover, I only made the Fireball talisman, which is most primary among the rank one talisman." Jun Tianyun sighed.
Su Qingyao felt she was about to punch Jun Tianyun.
In her world, it usually takes months for someone able to craft even the basic Fireball Talisman.
However, Jun Tianyun was still complaining after mastering it in a few hours.
" Sigh, This child is a little monster." Su Qingyao muttered.
Jun Tianyun spend ten hours inside, however only two hours passed in reality. Although Jun Tianyun didn't get tired physically in God's Space, he got bored after crafting talismans for ten hours.
" Alright, I have mastered Fireball Talisman, Windwalk Talisman, Earthshield Talisman, and Body Fixing Talisman." Jun Tianyun mumbled as he lay on the grass.
" Sister Qingyao, How do you cultivator just sit on a stone and cultivate for thousand years? Don't you feel bored?" Jun Tianyun asked.
" Heh, When the situation arises, you think nothing more than increasing your strength."
" So even a thousand years would feel like a blink of an eye." Su Qingyao gave a depreciating smile.
" Isn't it the same for you? Since you are powerless before your opponents, You are now sitting for hours to craft talismans." Su Qinyao chuckled.
" You are right. I understand now." Jun Tianyun was startled as he nodded.
" So, How did you come here, Sister Qingyao?" Jun Tianyun asked.
" I was fighting with Three Void Daoists. They were supreme powerhouses of my world."
" My clan happened to possess a treasure which they were greedy for. Therefore, They attacked us."
" I fought with them till the bitter end. At that moment, The treasure exploded as I was enveloped in a golden light."
" A voice asked me if I wish to be an artifact spirit. If I became an artifact spirit, then there will be a chance when the master of that divine artifact would help me to rebuild my body."
" That's how I became the spirit of your so-called System." Su Qingyao chuckled.
Jun Tianyun got up as he looked at Su Qingyao.
" Sister Qingyao, do you miss your home?" Jun Tianyun asked slowly.
" I do. But, It doesn't matter anymore." Su Qingyao smiled.
" Sister Qingyao, don't worry. When I will become powerful, I will take you back to your world. I will build the most powerful divine body for you." Jun Tianyun patted his chest.
" Pfft. Hahaha."
Su Qingyao couldn't help but laugh. A teardrop subconsciously appeared in the corner of her eyes.
" Fine, Little Jun. You must fulfill your promise. Otherwise, this big sister won't talk with you." Su Qingyao chuckled.
" Hehe, As long as Sister Qingyao is happy." Jun Tianyun smiled.
Jun Tianyun came back to the real world as he saw it was already past midnight. The things he experienced in God's Space, he tried in the reality.
It took him three hours to make them. His 150 points of energy were nearly depleted.
He tried five times and made three talismans successfully. Two Fireball talismans and one Earthshield talisman.
" Alright, I finally have some life saving measures." Jun Tianyun nodded.
The Fireball talisman is very simple. It will turn into a ball of flame and burn the enemy.
As for the Earthshield talisman, it's a defensive talisman. It creates a pale yellow shield around the body, which can stop normal attacks. It works for 15 minutes.
" I should take some rest now. After all, Tomorrow, I will go to the Purple Star Academy."
