Chapter 38: True Success
Chapter 38: True Success
"Stinky boy, you want to murder your own father!" Han Xiaojiang's roar was the loudest among everyone.
"Accident! It was a pure accident! Not next time, not anymore. Han Luojiang was also shocked by the power of the explosion, and hurriedly bowed around to apologize after hearing everyone's words.
"And next time! Lao Tzu is still far away from you. ”
"That's it! Again, I'll be scared to death if I don't get blown up. ”
In the midst of everyone's shouting and scolding, Han Xiaojiang was the first to take the lead, and quickly slipped out of the room without looking back as if he was hiding from the plague god. Han Luojiang was the only one left in the huge room, standing alone, unable to say a word with his mouth wide open.
"Am I that scary? It's not just a small fireball, but this small fireball is a bit powerful. Hee-hee. Han Luojiang, who comforted himself, once again recalled the process of successful drawing for the first time: "The time when the successful drawing was filled with true qi at the end, it seemed that there was still one step to be completed before it succeeded, what was ......?"
Han Luojiang, who was deep in thought, couldn't sense the outside world at all, and forgot to sit down. The whole process of successfully drawing a flame sigil is repeated over and over again in my mind, trying to see all the details, and sometimes I can't help but reach out and scratch through the air.
Time passed unconsciously, and Han Luojiang, who was thinking hard in the room, gradually felt a little dizzy and swollen because of his high concentration to understand the mysteries, and he was a little unstable even standing up.
"What is the reason for the failure? I've thought about it so many times and I still haven't found it. I feel so tired!! Tired ......" Just when he was so tired that he was about to fall, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed: "Tired! That's right! Mental power! The last step is to use spiritual power to seal the infused true qi in the rune paper in order to succeed in the end. After successfully drawing the pattern for the first time, I felt a little dizzy in my head, and I wanted to take a good rest, probably because I had consumed a lot of mental energy, but I was too excited at the time to care, and now in retrospect, it should have been like that. Hahaha...... I finally understood that I was a genius. Hahaha......"
After figuring out the reason and understanding the final key, Han Luojiang immediately meditated cross-legged on the ground, trying to see if his judgment was correct by recovering to his best state as quickly as possible.
With the operation of the exercises, the thick aura in the dojo was attracted and continuously absorbed and refined into Han Luojiang's body, and gradually the true qi consumed in the meridians was replenished, and it was filled with true qi again, and Han Luojiang's essence, qi, and spirit slowly returned to the best state.
Han Luojiang, who had already recovered his state, did not rush to make a move, and once again carefully thought about the process of drawing the flame talisman in his mind with bated breath, and felt that there was no other omission, before he took out a blank talisman paper and put it on the stone table, lifted the pen and stained it with the blood of the fire attribute brute beast, and drew it on the talisman paper with calm concentration.
After drawing the last stroke, a flexible flame pattern full of hot breath jumped on the rune paper, and a suction force came out of the pattern to absorb the true qi from Han Luojiang's body through the rune pen and infuse it into the rune pattern. When the entire flame pattern was about to be filled with true qi and ignited the firelight, the spiritual power in Han Luojiang's mind surged, surrounding the uncontrollable true qi that was about to burst open, and suppressed and stored it in the rune paper little by little, as the true qi was suppressed, the bright fire in the talisman slowly dimmed, and when the last trace of light was extinguished, the talisman no longer had any movement, and lay quietly flat on the stone table like an ordinary piece of paper.
"Whew." Han Luojiang, who finally succeeded in completing the drawing, let out a deep breath of turbidity, gently wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and supported his slightly trembling body with his hands on the stone table: "This work is really not done by people!" Completing such a small talisman actually consumed one-fifth of my true qi, and more than a quarter of my spiritual power; If it weren't for the fact that my cultivation was about to reach the middle stage of the martial arts, my true qi would still be some, especially if I was lucky enough to refine the leaves of the "Seven Leaf Condensing Divine Bamboo" a few years ago, which made my spiritual power soar, otherwise, completing a talisman would have made me tired. At my best now, if I had given it my all, I would have only been able to successfully complete three drawings. ”
After making a simple estimate of his ability, Han Luojiang excitedly picked up the talisman that had just been drawn: "This is what I really completed with my personal ability, how about trying the power?" Hee-hee......"
Han Luojiang, who was a little excited, ignored his fatigue, rushed all the way through the second floor to the first floor of the martial arts arena, and selected a large stone about half a person high as a target in the training ground to test the power of the flame talisman he had successfully drawn. Stopping at a distance of about 5 zhang from the target, he injected a breath of true qi into the talisman and threw it vigorously towards the stone, then turned around and quickly retreated back to ten zhang away.
The flame talisman was stimulated by this injected true qi, and when it flew towards the stone in the air, there was a faint hint of red light bursting out, and when the talisman approached the big stone almost a zhang away, the whole talisman burst open, and a fist-sized fireball flew out of the talisman, blasting towards the big stone with dazzling firelight.
"Bang!" A huge explosion resounded throughout the dojo, and the half-human-tall stone was suddenly blasted into a pile of large and small rubble by the fist-sized fireball that emitted high temperature. The blasted stones splashed into a radius of 5 zhang, and the rubble scattered all over the ground was charred black as if it had been burned by flames, and even Han Luojiang, who was 10 zhang away from the target, felt a wave of hot air rushing towards him after the explosion.
"Zizi...... That's a lot of power, and if you throw three or so cards at an enemy by surprise when you're fighting him, then ...... Hehe...... "Seeing the power of the talisman, Han Luojiang had a conjecture picture in his mind, and he laughed with a look that was completely opposite to his appearance.
"However, it takes about 4 to 5 breaths from the time the talisman is activated to the time it hits the target, and the power of the explosion is the greatest in the range of about 1 zhang from the center of the explosion, and it is estimated that even a strong person who has cultivated to the realm of a martial artist will feel uncomfortable when attacked by the talisman in this range, right? The effective lethality of the flame talisman is about 3 zhang or so, beyond this range it is basically difficult to cause effective damage to the opponent, if you encounter a monk who cultivates a speed-type body method, you can also rely on the speed of the body method to get out of the range of the explosion at the moment before the explosion, unless you use a large number of talismans to attack in a large area, otherwise it will not form a good effect on the enemy. ”
"It's not a small power, but it still doesn't seem to be enough. Is there any way to shorten the time it takes for a rune to burst? Or increase the power of the talisman. ”
"That's not right! Stupid! Han Luojiang slapped his forehead vigorously: "When I drew this talisman at that time, it seemed that I was using the essence blood of the second-level brute beast "Savage Fire Bull", if I used the essence blood of other third-level, fourth-level or higher fire-attribute brute beasts to draw, then wouldn't the power be even more powerful." ”
"Luo Jiang, what's wrong with you? Isn't it sabotage to make such a big move? Just as Han Luojiang was thinking about how to make the talisman more powerful, a bright voice sounded behind him.
"Brother Ming, you're back." As soon as he turned around, he saw Han Ming, who had been arranged to go back to the village and bring people over, standing in front of him.
"Uncle Shui, Uncle Shi, Uncle Nian...... You're all here. Seeing the familiar figures behind Han Ming, Han Luojiang happily rushed forward to greet them one by one.
"Xiao Jiang, what are you doing here? Why is it just you and everyone else? "In the crowd, the cultivator has reached the peak of martial arts, and Shui Bo, who is also the oldest, asked Han Luojiang.
"Well, I'm here to test the power of the talisman I just drawn; Everyone else is on the top floor. That's right, Shui Bo. How many people came from the village? How many people have entered the dojo? Seeing that Shui Bo asked about his situation, Han Luojiang hurriedly changed the topic.
"Everyone who can come has come, but there are about 200 people who can enter the dojo. According to Han Ming's description, we sorted out some transportation equipment and brought it over, and all the thousands of people in the village tried the dojo formation, plus the formation also has age restrictions, and those over 45 years old are blocked from the outside and cannot enter the dojo. It took us 5 days to get here together. Shui Bo said to Han Luojian while looking at the surrounding environment.
"What? 5 days. It's been 5 days? I didn't feel like time was running out in the dojo. Could it be that I have been thinking about the drawing of the talisman for a few days? Han Luojiang was very surprised when he heard that it had been so many days since they had entered the dojo from the village.
"Xiao Jiang, you take us to meet your father and them, and then discuss the next thing. On the way, you told us about the situation. Shui Bo urged Han Luojiang to take them to the rain and the others to converge.
