Chapter 1347
The Icicle Talisman was the same as the Fireball Talisman. They were both low-level yellow talismans, but their attributes were different. Xiao Hua was eager to refine the Icicle Talisman because he wanted to confirm his conjecture!
Because it was his first time refining the Icicle Talisman, it was somewhat difficult. After trying several times, he barely succeeded. The difficult part wasn't the drawing of the talisman nor was it the insertion of the incantation. It was just that when he urged his magic power to wrap the world's spiritual energy with the talisman ink, it was much more difficult than refining the Fireball Talisman!
Xiao Hua didn't use a talisman brush to refine the Icicle Talisman, but when he rested for a moment and took out a talisman brush from his storage pouch to refine the Icicle Talisman, the difference was even more obvious!
He drew a low-level Icicle Talisman over a hundred times, but he didn't succeed even once!
In the beginning, when he used his magic power to urge the talisman brush, it was very difficult for the talisman ink to wrap the world's spiritual energy. Later on, before he could finish drawing the talisman, the world's spiritual energy would break through the talisman ink and dissipate in the air!
Xiao Hua's self-confidence was greatly damaged. After failing dozens of times, he could only change the talisman and refine a few high-grade Fireball Talismans or middle-grade Confinement Talismans to comfort himself.
This kind of slow practice, when it became boring, he would comprehend the Heavenly Dao and cultivate his mental cultivation method. When his mind was clear, he would practice again. Time passed extremely quickly. After an unknown amount of time, when Xiao Hua used up all the low-grade talisman papers he bought from Yi City, the refining of the Icicle Talisman broke through to the final stage and was stuck at the stage of writing the talisman.
Putting down the talisman brush, Xiao Hua moved his slightly sore and numb wrist. Looking at the somewhat messy room, he smiled bitterly and thought, "It seems that the five elements of the physique are also related to the refining of yellow talismans. I myself have a fire attribute physique. Using my own method to refine fireball talismans, I can easily refine fireball talismans that surpass high grade ones. Even if I use a talisman brush to refine them, I can barely refine them to mid grade ones. But if I were to change it to a water attribute yellow talisman, which is incompatible with the five elements, even if I were to use a talisman brush to refine them, I can only refine them to mid grade ones. And if I were to use a talisman brush, it would be even more difficult.
How many days have I spent using thousands of talisman papers?
I actually … still haven't succeeded! "
"Alas, no wonder Senior Ma said that this is a process of accumulation of experience!"
Xiao Hua had long agreed with Ma Qingcheng's point of view in his heart. "Also, this … how long has it been? Presumably, Heaven Qi has already forgotten about me!
Think of a way yourself! "
Xiao Hua immediately left the house and went straight to Yi Bazaar. Although Yi Bazaar was the same as usual, Xiao Hua who had seen Yi Bazaar before felt that it was absolutely desolate. After walking around for a while, he bought some talisman paper and talisman ink. Xiao Hua then left Yi Bazaar. Just as his figure appeared at the entrance of Yi Bazaar, a scarlet red brilliance quickly flew in front of him and quietly floated in the air!
"Hmm?"
Xiao Hua stared blankly for a moment before coming to his senses. He couldn't help but be overjoyed. He stretched out his hand and took the light. A familiar voice rang out. It was Ma Qingcheng's message. "Fellow Daoist Xiao, I've made you wait for so long. If you have time today, quickly come to Hua Yun Park. I, Tian Qi, have an absolutely great opportunity. I want to see how Fellow Daoist's fate is!"
"An absolutely great opportunity?" Xiao Hua's face lit up with joy. "Could it be that you have some cultivation method to give me?"
Xiao Hua excitedly walked a few steps, then unconsciously slowed down. He slowly pondered in his heart. If he wanted to join Heaven Qi, then he had to reveal his talisman crafting technique. This was the key for Xiao Hua to join Heaven Qi. However, although Xiao Hua could refine low-grade fireball talismans, and high-grade ones at that, he could even refine high-grade confinement talismans. However … his technique was different from the technique used to refine yellow talismans in Dawn Rain Continent. He didn't use a talisman brush to refine them!
What gave Xiao Hua the most headache was that his cultivation was only at the second layer of Qi Refining. With such a low cultivation, it was absolutely impossible for him to refine high-grade fireball talismans!!
Even if he used a talisman brush to refine a mid-grade fireball talisman, it was inevitable that he would reveal himself in Heaven Qi. And the direct consequence of revealing himself was that he might be noticed by Hundred Herbs Gate.
Heaven Qi was a self-help organization for rogue cultivators. It didn't have the obligation to protect every single rogue cultivator. If Hundred Herbs Gate found out, Heaven Qi definitely wouldn't stand up for Xiao Hua. After all, Heaven Qi didn't even forbid its own members from fighting!
"This is a rather troublesome matter!" Xiao Hua stroked his chin in a daze. He was indeed in a dilemma.
After walking a few steps, Xiao Hua's eyes lit up. He smiled and said, "How can I be so dumb now?
First, I'll use a talisman paper to refine an Icicle Talisman. Although this Icicle Talisman hasn't been successfully refined, it's not too far away. If Heaven Qi really doesn't approve, then I'll take the risk and refine a fireball talisman with a talisman brush. In any case, I'll just have to be extra careful in the future! "
After making up his mind, Xiao Hua quickened his pace. By the time he arrived at the Huayun Park, it was already afternoon. Seeing rogue cultivators entering and exiting the Huayun Park from time to time, Xiao Hua was somewhat puzzled. The last time he came here, it wasn't this lively, right?
After entering Hua Yun Park, there were indeed many rogue cultivators inside. They seemed to be busy with something. When they saw Xiao Hua enter, they ignored him.
Seeing this, Xiao Hua's original misgivings disappeared without a trace. Thinking about it, Zhang Zhihao attacking a rogue cultivator in the second layer of Qi Refining wasn't something to be proud of. Moreover, this bastard definitely had the mentality of hogging it all for himself. He definitely wouldn't let others know.
Xiao Hua's heart was at ease, and his brows also relaxed. According to his previous memory, he arrived in front of the room from last time. Just as Xiao Hua was about to step in, a middle-aged rogue cultivator coincidentally came out from inside. He looked at Xiao Hua with astonishment and asked, "Fellow Daoist, I'm not familiar with you. Are you … a new Fellow Daoist?"
Xiao Hua cupped his hands and said, "I … haven't joined Heaven Qi yet. This time, I'm looking for Fellow Daoist Ma Qingcheng!"
"Oh, so you're looking for Fellow Daoist Ma." The rogue cultivator suddenly understood and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Ma isn't here …"
"What?
Not in Jingbo City?
But … Fellow Daoist Ma sent I a Summoning Talisman just now! "Xiao Hua stared blankly.
"This …" The rogue cultivator smiled bitterly. "Fellow Daoist, don't be anxious. I only said that Fellow Daoist Ma isn't in this room. I didn't say he wasn't in Hua Yun Park or Jingbo City, right?"
Hearing this, Xiao Hua's face became embarrassed. He smiled apologetically and said, "I was impatient and misunderstood Fellow Daoist!"
"Haha, it's fine, it's fine." The rogue cultivator smiled and said, "Hua Yun Park is relatively busy today. If Fellow Daoist has a Summoning Talisman, there's no harm in sending one. Otherwise … it really won't be easy to find Fellow Daoist Ma!"
"Of course, I forgot about this!" Xiao Hua slapped his head and came to a realization.
Afterwards, after expressing his thanks, he took out a Summoning Talisman from his storage pouch. After sending the Summoning Talisman, Xiao Hua waited for a long while before he saw Ma Qingcheng hurrying over.
Ma Qingcheng had a smile on his face from far away. When he came closer, he cupped his hands and said, "I've troubled Fellow Daoist Xiao to wait for so long!"
"I don't dare, I don't dare!"
Xiao Hua hurriedly returned the greeting and said with a smile, "Seeing so many people in Hua Yun Park, I know how busy Fellow Daoist Ma is. Did something happen in Heaven Forsaken?"
"Hehe, naturally there's an absolute opportunity. Otherwise, why would I be in such a hurry to have you come over?" Ma Qingcheng said with a smile.
"En?
So it's not a cultivation method! "Xiao Hua was somewhat surprised and asked curiously," I wonder what Fellow Daoist Ma is talking about? "
"Hahaha, this is a major matter in Heaven Forsaken. Fellow Daoist Xiao still hasn't joined my Heaven Forsaken, so forgive me for not being able to give you a detailed explanation!"
Ma Qingcheng said very happily, "That's right, Fellow Daoist Xiao, that Fireball Talisman … has it been successfully refined?"
"Not yet!"
Xiao Hua said without hesitation, "I … failed to refine the Fireball Talisman. Later … I found a book on refining the Icicle Talisman and had some insights. Although I haven't been able to completely refine it, I'm not far from it. I wonder …"
As Xiao Hua said this, he carefully observed Ma Qingcheng's expression. Unexpectedly, Ma Qingcheng's expression was as calm as water. He simply didn't care about what Xiao Hua said. After Xiao Hua finished speaking, he clapped his hands and said, "That's very good. I already told Fellow Daoist Xiao that although refining talismans depends on one's aptitude, if you don't have the guidance of a wise master, it's definitely not an easy task. For Fellow Daoist Xiao to be able to cultivate to this extent in such a short period of time is already very commendable!"
As he said this, he clapped his hands and took out a Summoning Talisman. With a push of his transcendence energy, the Summoning Talisman flew away. He turned his head and said to Xiao Hua, "Fellow Daoist Xiao has always been very busy. I also haven't been able to see him for several days. If you don't use the Summoning Talisman, it's really hard to find him!"
Xiao Hua smiled and nodded. Ma Qingcheng seemed to have a very good impression of Xiao Hua. He looked Xiao Hua up and down and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, during this period of time, I have been very worried about you. I was afraid that with only one mid-grade spirit stone, you wouldn't be able to survive in Jingbo City.
But seeing that Fellow Daoist didn't come to Hua Yunyuan or send a message, and … to tell the truth, the longer the test dragged on, the more advantageous it would be for Fellow Daoist. Therefore, I didn't urge Fellow Daoist Xiao too much. But now, it seems that Fellow Daoist Xiao … is also mingling very well in this Jingbo City. You even got a storage pouch! "
"Haha," Xiao Hua smiled and untied the storage pouch. "Fellow Daoist Ma will naturally know when you take a look!"
"What?"
Ma Qingcheng took it and casually looked inside. There was a somewhat strange expression on his face. He handed it over again and said, "Although this is … a storage pouch with an extremely small space, it's still a storage pouch after all. Fellow Daoist Xiao's ability can be considered to be at a glance!"
"I wouldn't dare … I was only slightly fiddling with some things in Yi Zhong. If I didn't have a storage pouch, it would really be inconvenient …" Xiao Hua already had a countermeasure and explained with a smile.
"Haha, there's no need to say anything.
This is Fellow Daoist Xiao's own matter. I, Tian Qi, have never been interested in it, hahaha. "Ma Qingcheng stopped Xiao Hua's explanation. Just as he was about to speak, a voice came from outside the door." Fellow Daoist Ma, why are you so happy? "
Hearing this, Xiao Hua hurriedly got up and took a few steps forward. He cupped his hands and said, "Junior greets Senior Qing …"
The person who came was Qing Fengmin. He was also happy to see Xiao Hua and returned the greeting. "Long time no see. Fellow Daoist Xiao, how's your yellow talisman refining coming along?"
