Splitting the Heavens
Chapter 1242: State of Inspired Flow, Deeper Understanding of the Dao of TalismansShang Xia seemed to have received a huge setback when he crafted the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman. He used 16 sheets of rank six talisman paper but only managed to complete 2 talismans. Moreover, he relied mostly on luck.
Even after so many attempts, he hadn’t fully comprehended the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman.
However… After his consecutive failures, SShang Xia comprehended one thing. Even if he knew the method to craft the talisman, the Wanyun Association might have hidden the key to crafting it in the talisman paper.
After all, the talisman papers Shen Chongshan just delivered were similar to the 10 sheets he sent in the past.
Shang Xia didn’t notice it in the past, but the talisman paper didn’t merely seem better than ordinary rank six talisman paper. Instead, they seemed to be specially used to craft Myriad Tinted Cloud Talismans.
For him to succeed twice even though he hadn’t fully comprehended the method of crafting the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman… The special talisman paper might have something to do with it.
Of course, that didn’t mean that other rank six talisman paper couldn’t be used to craft Myriad Tinted Cloud Talismans. It was just that the success rate was probably a lot lower than if he used special rank six talisman paper.
However… If Shang Xia could fully comprehend the talisman by crafting it with the 5 new sheets of rank six talisman paper… He might not need special talisman paper in order to succeed in the future!
He only had 5 chances…
Shoving all his random thoughts away, Shang Xia composed himself before focusing on crafting the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman.At the moment, he was merely a single step away and all he needed to do was to cross the final threshold.
Even though he knew how close he was, his first attempt gave him a harsh awakening. He made a mistake just as he passed the 50 percent mark, causing him to lose a precious chance.
Fortunately, Shang Xia was an experienced Taisman Grandmaster and he wasn’t too affected by the failure. After adjusting his condition, he quickly started his second attempt.
Everything went pretty smoothly and he quickly arrived at the 90 percent completion mark. The only thing left for him to do was to comprehend the final portion.
He was fully focused. Every stroke was made with perfect concentration and with every movement of his brush, he inched a little closer to the completion and comprehension of the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman.
Right at the very end, the streams of energy contained in the rules lost control and caused him to fail. However, right before the talisman paper was ripped to shreds, Shang Xia was able to see the resonance of the runes that had lost control.
He could determine that the talisman didn’t just focus on the attributes he discovered in the past. It also seemed to contain the effects of stability, which was somewhat contradictory to the effect that could allow something to remain suspended in the air.
However… That was indeed a very practical use…
The moment Shang Xia discovered the final effect of the talisman, the fog in his mind cleared. He finally comprehended the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman. What was even more important was that from a certain perspective, Shang Xia could start breaking down the talisman into its individual components and craft 6 different high-level talismans if he wished!
Without mentioning the other talismans, if he were to craft the talismans that focused on defense, concealment, and the ability to keep things suspended in the air, they would definitely be rank six talismans.
Fully comprehending the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman also allowed his understanding of the dao of talismans to grow once again.
Even though he wouldn’t be able to become a rank seven Talisman Grandmaster that way, he could be considered the best rank six Talisman Grandmaster!
Perhaps it was due to the excitement of comprehending the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman, Shang Xia didn’t bother resting too much before his next attempt.
It might also be related to how he failed previously, but the third attempt went really smoothly, allowing him to complete the talisman.
Just like that, Shang Xia completed everything the Wanyun Association required.
Naturally, he wouldn’t be content with that. Taking out several days to adjust his condition so that he wouldn’t make the same mistake as before, he started the fourth attempt.
He might have comprehended the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman, but that didn’t mean that he would succeed every time, and that was exactly what happened.
After a few more days, Shang Xia attempted to craft another Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman with the last piece of special rank six talisman paper he was given.
Since he was no longer feeling the pressure of having to complete another talisman, Shang Xia felt a sense of ease like never before when crafting Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman. The feeling was so strong that he felt he had a 90 percent chance of succeeding.
As soon as he picked up his brush again, he felt as though everything had aligned. The strange state of enlightenment he felt when crafting talismans in the past descended and it took him less than 9 days to complete another Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman.
Even with the fourth talisman complete, his special state of mind didn’t disappear. He might not have any more special rank six talisman paper, but he didn’t hesitate to grab an ordinary sheet to continue his craft.
He took 11 days to craft another Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman, and the difference in time might be related to the difference in talisman paper, but that didn’t matter. All it proved was that he could still create the talisman with ordinary talisman paper.
After completing 2 Myriad Tinted Cloud Talismans in a row, the sense of inspiration disappeared.
He used to be able to craft more talismans when he experienced the strange state of mind, but he only managed to craft 2 this time. It wasn’t because he could only stay in the strange state for a short time. Instead, it was because crafting high-level talismans took too much time.
