chapter 18 What a waste ===

From this "bleeding talisman", a milky white halo soon emitted, spreading to the surroundings, making people feel calmer. Just as the milky white halo appeared, it was also accompanied by a faint fragrance. It smells a bit like jasmine. When the milky white halo emanating from this "bleeding talisman" reached its peak, Basi Yang narrowed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and held it still. After waiting for about five or six seconds, Basi Yang suddenly opened his mouth, and sprayed the breath of fresh air in his mouth toward the "bleeding charm" held by his hands. Suddenly, the milky white halo emanating from the "Bleeding Talisman" dimmed instantly. It turned into a "latex"-like thing. When you hold it in your hand, it's still a little sticky. Basi Yang took out a small plastic bag and put the "bleeding charm" in it. You can take it out at any time if you need it later. Next, Basi Yang began to refine the "Tortoise shell charm" and the "Linght Wings charm". The refining methods of these two runes are similar, and both require some special materials to be successfully refined. The "Tortoise shell charm" requires a bit of turtle shell powder. On his way back just now, Basi Yang stopped by the place where he had lunch and asked the landlady if she had any turtle shells. The landlady was very enthusiastic. In order to thank Basi Yang for his help in the afternoon, she went to several restaurants and found a piece of large turtle carapace for Basi Yang. This turtle shell can actually replace the tortoise shell. As for the bird feathers required for the "Linght Wings charm", it is even simpler, and can be replaced directly with feathers from chickens and ducks. Since these two runes are auxiliary runes, they are not too difficult to refine. Among these four kinds of runes, the most difficult one to refine is undoubtedly the last "Fire Sword amulet". This is the only attack rune that Basi Yang can currently refine. Once this "Fire Sword amulet" is activated, it can cause the runes to burn instantly, forming a "Fire Sword" that is connected to the mind. The attack is extremely sharp. Moreover, the entire blade of the sword is made of flames. Even if it doesn't hit anyone, the high temperature that can melt steel can burn the opponent with just a slight touch. This method is truly awesome. With this method, even the lowest cultivator can refine a powerful killing weapon like the "Fire Sword amulet". Compared to cultivators, ordinary people, even masters of martial arts, can only be considered weak. However, although this "Fire Sword amulet" is powerful, it is also very difficult to refine. After refining the first three kinds of runes, Basi Yang rested for a long time and felt that his spiritual power had returned to its peak state before finally starting to refine the "Fire Sword amulet". First, Basi Yang folded a piece of yellow paper into the shape of a small sword and placed it on the table. Then, he silently stared at the small yellow paper sword. After a long time, there was a sound of "Poof!", and a string of flames suddenly appeared on the index finger of his right hand. This is his natal flame, which is extremely powerful, but also consumes a lot of spiritual power. Although the flame was only as big as a thumbnail, it was extremely hot. As soon as the flames appeared, Basi Yang felt a scorching heat that began to permeate the entire room. Taking a deep breath, Basi Yang suddenly picked up the small yellow paper sword on the table. Then he tried his best to control his real flame and transformed mysterious talismans in the air. These talismans must be sketched out in an instant. If they are half sketched, they will disappear immediately. Basi Yang sketched it three times in a row before completing it once. Once completed, the talisman in the air formed a solid shadow of fire that would not disappear in a short period of time. At this time, Basi Yang was already panting, and his fingertips that were holding the fireball were trembling slightly. At first, it was just the fingers, but as time went by, his wrists, entire arms, and even his whole body gradually began to tremble. Suddenly, Basi Yang fingers trembled and he clicked on the small sword on the yellow paper. In an instant, the talisman in the air suddenly made a sound like fried beans, and then shrank rapidly. Then, with a "swish" sound, he got into the small sword in front of the yellow paper, "Crack!" The entire small sword yellow paper burned in an instant. Basi Yang stared at the burning yellow paper of the small sword, his face turned red from suppressing it. At the same time, he desperately activated the spiritual power in his body. After a moment, the flames on the yellow paper of the burning small sword began to sway. The flame above began to grow bigger and smaller, unable to maintain its calmness. After a while, it finally became smaller, turned into sparks again, and disappeared into the air. On the table, a black, steel-nail-like object was left. This is the "Fire Sword amulet"! "Huh...huh..." Basi Yang panted heavily and his whole body softened. However, when he saw that the "Fire Sword amulet" was successfully refined, his face was filled with joy. … After refining four paper talismans at once, Basi Yang felt that he was a genius in talismans. After resting for about an hour, Basi Yang felt that his spiritual power was almost restored. He finally took out the mutton-fat white jade and placed it on the table. At this moment, the moonlight shines down and shines on the mutton-fat white jade, making it appear delicate and warm, like butter. Basi Yang put aside the materials for the "Turtle Shell Talisman" and "Fire Sword amulet" that he had refined previously. Then, according to the above order, the two processes of "tortoise shell talisman" and "Fire Sword amulet" are all superimposed on the mutton fat jade. As long as someone attacks the owner of this jade, the turtle shell talisman can defend, while the Fire Sword amulet will actively attack. "Huh... I'm finally done, but I'm so exhausted." After struggling for more than an hour and exhausting all his spiritual energy, Basi Yang was as tired as a dead dog. He finally realized his genius idea. "Yes, yes, it's really beautiful. It's quite honorable to use it as a greeting gift. The old man will probably say that I am reliable in my work." Looking at the pure white mutton-fat jade in his hand, it became golden, like Basi Yang felt a great sense of accomplishment when he was so good at Huo Shaoyun. After all, this little jade talisman perfectly achieves "combination of offense and defense". If Basi Yang's thoughts were known to other cultivators, they would definitely say that he was a prodigal. You know, two first-level runes are superimposed without being mutually exclusive, but they are a standard third-level rune! Five hundred years ago, this jade talisman could have been used as a betrothal gift and married to a princess. After all, this is a jade talisman. It's not a disposable item like paper charms. As long as the jade talisman is not broken, even if the spiritual energy inside is used up, the jade talisman will automatically absorb the energy of heaven and earth to replenish it.
