Chapter 982 - 981
At this moment, Jing Changle was muttering all the key points of the Spiritual Talisman!Luo Yirui was greatly surprised, how could he know this? He immediately looked at the bead in his hand; is the bead the source of the problem?
Putting that aside for now, he noticed Jing Changle’s spirit was insufficient, and he was on the verge of dispersing. If his spirit wasn’t replenished immediately, Jing Changle would be doomed!
Luo Yirui turned around and left the room. In the corridor, he entered any room he came across. The Mystic Doctors didn’t have any valuables, and they generally didn’t lock their doors.
After entering, Luo Yirui found their bundles. Indeed, although the Iron Triangle didn’t use chicken skin bags when they arrived, they used bundles. The material of the bundle was from the headscarves discarded by the village women...
He opened the bundle and indeed found several small bags. Luo Yirui dared not take too much, only taking what was needed and then rewrapped it.
After ransacking the Iron Triangle, he finally gathered the auxiliary herbs needed for the Essence Qi Talisman.
The quantities were very small, and if they didn’t use them at the time, even if they discovered later, they wouldn’t think of him as the culprit.
Luo Yirui was very fast and immediately returned to the room to start making talismans. This time, he was creating the Essence Qi Talisman, which was quite difficult.
Luo Yirui had scavenged thirty-seven types of herbs, while his limit was twenty-eight... He had to take the risk and try, because a talisman made from twenty-eight types of herbs wouldn’t help Jing Changle!
Thirty-seven types were the minimum he estimated.
"If those old guys come looking, you have to cover for me!" Luo Yirui said as he pulled out the Yellow Talisman and his brush.
The talisman making began, and he became fully focused.
The talisman drawing for the Essence Qi Talisman was incredibly complex. Luckily, Luo Yirui wasn’t drawing it for the first time and was quite adept, but incorporating the herbs made his forehead sweat!
Luo Yirui nearly couldn’t persist several times, but he ultimately held on, for a person’s life depended solely on this Essence Qi Talisman!
Thankfully, Luo Yirui finally crafted the Essence Qi Talisman with thirty-seven herbs!
Luo Yirui ignored his own progress in herb incorporation and immediately turned it into talismanic water, massaging Jing Changle’s throat to make him drink it.
At that moment, Jing Changle was completely unaware, only noticing the image of the beautiful aunt in the bead becoming increasingly blurry, which made him very anxious.
How should he recharge this aunt?
As the image of the beautiful aunt grew blurrier, Jing Changle felt dizzy and unwell, his body discomforted.
His vision blurred, and it seemed like everything around him was about to vanish, causing Jing Changle to struggle to maintain focus, knowing he couldn’t let it disappear!
He had a feeling that if it dissipated, he’d never see that beautiful aunt again.
Jing Changle struggled hard, his head began to ache, even beating like an unruly rubber ball thumping against his skull.
Just as Jing Changle could barely hold on, a cooling sensation suddenly spread through his mind, easing the pain, and the scene before him became clear again, with the beautiful aunt’s face reappearing in his vision.
However, this time the beautiful aunt wasn’t drawing a talisman; instead, she quietly stood there, motionless, as if waiting for something.
What is the aunt waiting for?
In the room, Luo Yirui felt Jing Changle’s spirit, which was nearly exhausted, quickly being replenished and enhanced by the Essence Qi Talisman, providing great benefit to him.
Luo Yirui noticed that Jing Changle still showed no signs of waking up and became worried, wondering what was going on?
He stood there pondering, recalling what Jing Changle said about the bead glowing, indicating that the issue lay with the bead. If he removed the bead, would everything be fine?
Thinking this, he reached for the bead, and just as his hand was about to touch it, Jing Changle suddenly spoke.
"Divine strokes... Consistent and strong..."
Jing Changle continued mumbling about the Spiritual Talisman process.
Luo Yirui withdrew his hand and carefully observed Jing Changle, feeling like he wanted to perform the Spiritual Talisman but lacked the method?
If that’s the case, should he guide him through once?
It was Luo Yirui’s mom who guided him the first time he accomplished it.
Thinking this, Luo Yirui picked up his brush and Yellow Talisman again and said to Jing Changle, "Watch me perform the Spiritual Talisman, I’ll slow my pace."
Perhaps it was the words ’Spiritual Talisman’ that attracted Jing Changle, for his gaze lifted and settled on Luo Yirui.
Seeing this, Luo Yirui started painting.
This time, performing the Spiritual Talisman resembled his first attempt, slow but smooth, creating the Essence Qi Talisman as Jing Changle still needed its nourishing supplement.
Luo Yirui slowed down to the maximum, taking over ten minutes to complete the Spiritual Talisman.
During this time, Jing Changle’s gaze remained vacant, yet it gave the impression of careful observation.
It was quite paradoxical; there was clearly a vacant gaze, but why did it give him the illusion of careful observation?
"Do you need me to demonstrate again?" Luo Yirui whispered.
Jing Changle didn’t respond, his sight returning to the bead, this time without muttering the key points.
Just as Luo Yirui thought he would remain like this, Jing Changle’s hand suddenly lifted and began gesturing in the air.
Luo Yirui immediately understood he was simulating the Spiritual Talisman process, swiftly handing his brush and a Yellow Talisman to him.
Jing Changle stared at the brush and Yellow Talisman for a moment, then placed the bead on the table... Witnessing these actions, Luo Yirui nearly doubted whether he truly was in a daze, knowing he needed to put the bead on the table?
Jing Changle picked up the brush and Yellow Talisman, gesturing twice, then looked up at Luo Yirui.
Luo Yirui: "...Old pal, you..."
Momentarily, he was at a loss for words; the eyes never lie, and he knew Jing Changle was indeed in a daze.
With a sigh, Luo Yirui picked up a ballpoint pen from the table to use as a brush, aware that it was impossible to genuinely conduct the Spiritual Talisman with it.
Luo Yirui maintained slow movements, Jing Changle mirrored his actions.
It was imaginable that, despite Luo Yirui’s guidance, Jing Changle’s first attempt at the Spiritual Talisman ended in failure.
Outside, people were unaware of what these two kids were doing inside. If they knew, they’d probably be astonished.
If Beisitian found out her son was doing this, she’d likely gasp.
The Spiritual Talisman isn’t something that comes forth naturally; even with guidance, it requires prolonged preparation, and the spirit must be nourished for years to make it possible, else failure might lead to madness!
