is a few points less than the other items, are both things Qin Sang urgently needs.>Needless to say, after breaking through the second level, Qin Sang discovered that the power of the killing talisman..."It's no wonder that cultivators in this world are adept at talismanry. They begin interacting with divine talismans from the very start of their cultivation..."
Qin Sang's heart flashed with this thought, and she secretly sighed.
What is called a "fascinating scroll" is that a divine talisman serves as a carrier.
Each talisman corresponds to a different divine charm. The talisman Qin Sang currently possesses corresponds to the Jade Purity Summon Thunder Charm!
This divine talisman is the foundation of talismans' existence, and also the basis for setting up an altar.
After receiving the talismans, disciples of Lei Ting Zuo Fu gradually comprehended and perfected the talisman altar as their cultivation improved.
The Jade Clearing Summoning Thunder Talisman is very complex.
These complex talismans are composed of multiple glyphs assembled according to specific patterns. The components that make up these talismans are called "scattered forms".
Every talisman, when drawn, has different patterns, scriptures, structures, spirits, and incantations; there is no room for error.
Some talismans are even inherently a kind of divine symbol.
All scattered aggregates, converge to become a whole, the divine symbol is formed, this step is called aggregation or integration.
>
To learn talismanic script, one must first understand how to read it. One should disassemble the entire talismanic form into each individual component symbol, comprehend the meaning of each component, and then recombine them into complex composite symbols to achieve mastery.
The shape structure of talismans has many kinds.
Simple ones, a few irregular shapes combined on the same plane, are easy to discern the glyph structure.
But complex grand talismans are formed by overlapping and layering various irregular aggregates, making their shapes invisible. One needs to consume heart energy to slowly comprehend them; it's not something that can be achieved without unwavering perseverance and profound cultivation.
But this is just the beginning. How to simplify, and use talismans skillfully, is also a university subject.
The Jade Pure Summon Thunder Talisman is this kind of complex large talisman, at least for Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment cultivators.

However, the talismans have already been dissected clearly. Otherwise, a newly initiated disciple of talismanry couldn't even decipher their scattered forms, let alone cast an altar.
When casting an altar, the talisman formation can be seen as the framework of the ritual space.
Once a cultivator comprehends the first form of the Jade Purity Summoning Thunder Talisman, they can begin forging an altar.
It can be likened to building a house. The first step is like laying the foundation, and then layer by layer bricks are added until it's complete.
Thus, step by step, a sturdy luo dan was built.
Before this, Qin Sang had never focused on refining fu dao, rarely having the opportunity to personally draw talismans. However, he used spiritual talismans a lot and understood the essentials of fu dao to some extent.
Moreover, the Jade Purity Summon Thunder Talisman was not particularly profound. Even if he had no knowledge of talismanry, understanding it wouldn't be difficult.
Without any effort, Qin Sang comprehended the first Dao of formlessness.
>
He opened his eyes, pondered for a moment, and raised a finger. With a gentle motion, he pointed it forward. Light flickered at his fingertips, leaving a trail of radiant brilliance in the void, and the first shapeless form appeared.
Looking at this irregular formation, Qin Sang's face showed a thoughtful expression.
The irregular shape hung in mid-air, its glow resembling water. Faint flashes of lightning flickered within it, like a mysterious rune.
The practice of drawing talismans also has its own set of rules and principles, just as mortals writing articles need to use words, talismanic magic also has its own special runes.
Runes are letters, scattered shapes are paragraphs, and gathered shapes form articles.
A single glyph might be a special rune, or it could be composed of countless runes.
The origins of runes stem primarily from monks who delved into the mysteries of heaven and earth, observing all phenomena. They drew inspiration from celestial patterns and the movements of stars, as well as imitating the writings found in insects and birds.
Fu Xiu is classified into various categories according to their efficacy and origin, such as Shenfu Yumen, Qiong Palace Lingwen, Yunzhuan Leiwen, and Long Hua Fengzhang, among others. There are many different types.
Various runes can be used individually or combined to form different divine runes, each possessing unique power.

Qin Sang's face was lit by a swirling, formless lightning pattern.
>The Taishang Shenxiao Lu, which worships the Lei Zu (Grand Patriarch of Thunder) and cultivates the thunder way, so the basic components of the Yuqing Zhaolei Fu (Jade Purity Summoning Thunder Talisman) are mainly thunder patterns.
Qin Sang shifted his gaze, landing on a special aperture within the scattered formation. This was another crucial element of the divine talisman – the spirit aperture!
As the saying goes:
To draw talismans without understanding the secrets, only invites laughter from ghosts and spirits.
When drawing symbols, one should know the secrets. Even ghosts and spirits are startled by it!
This acupuncture point is extraordinary. It is formed by the synthesis of heaven and earth, and its name is Shenqi acupoint.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Like the human body's acupoints, it channels qi within, connecting heaven and earth. Qi flows through its form, divine intentions converge, it can be called a talisman of courage.
A scattered aggregation is not simply a superposition. The superposition of holes and forms, the connection of spirits and qi, and the unimpeded circulation of energy are necessary to form a talisman.
The more complex the talisman, the more spiritual apertures it possesses.
The first strike of the Jade Purity Summoning Thunder Talisman was in the shape of a single spirit aperture, the very eye that Qin Sang had been looking at.
After the dharma altar is cast, the dharma talisman resides within this spirit aperture. From then on, every time one seals and merges apertures into a form, it uses this spirit aperture as the foundation.
Qin Sang's heart moved, and several rays of light flew out from the Qianjun Ring, landing in front of him.
Among them were two vials of golden blood, one glittering gold, the other slightly duller.
There was also a piece of withered wood that constantly stimulated Qing Lei's spirit, and a plant with leaves full of lightning-patterned veins.
The withered wood is the root of Qingshao tree, and Lingcao's name should be Leichao.
Both bottles of blood were collected by Qin Sang when he infiltrated the Lei Ying demon country on behalf of Thunder Left Manor. They were both golden-winged thunder eagle blood, one from the royal family and one ordinary.
The four kinds of spirit creatures are all prepared for casting the altar.
The Golden Seal Altar and the Military Array Altar, one is a real altar, and the other is a virtual altar.
The military array formation needs to integrate and connect the energy of all soldiers under its command, working together to achieve a unified form. When one's cultivation reaches a high level, it can even allow generals to command from other spiritual apertures.
The casting of a golden seal altar is for refining spirit creatures and constructing talismanic forms.
The grade of spiritual items used in the casting ritual will have a certain impact on the talisman array and divine talismans, but it's not necessarily better to have a higher grade.
Even a simple, scattered talisman requires extremely high-grade spiritual materials. The immense power it contains could potentially shock one's spirit aperture, leading to the talisman collapsing.
Qin Sang's gaze swept over the four spirit creatures. He first took out a drop of the golden-winged thunder eagle royal blood, tried it slightly, and sure enough, it failed.
He did not force it, taking out ordinary blood essence once more. He drew a single drop, suspending it above his palm.
A novice cultivator like Lu Sheng lacked the ability to refine spiritual artifacts. As long as he could construct a talisman array using crude essence blood or medicinal power and keep it from collapsing, he could gradually refine it later.
Qin Sang naturally didn't need to do so. With a slight movement of his true essence, he refined away all impurities in his blood essence, retaining only the purest power of his bloodline.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
A single drop of essence blood, retaining only a trace of pure bloodline thunder power, followed by Qin Sang plucking with his fingers, merging it into the formless shape.
Visible to the naked eye, a spark of lightning danced among the shapes, its power as ink, sketching thunder patterns in one continuous stroke!
It transformed into a bolt of lightning, its spiritual energy surging, resonating with the spirit apertures.
Qin Sang's heart moved, and the talisman shot into her spirit aperture.
In an instant, the platform is complete!
This is my talisman altar.
Qin Sang stared at the talisman altar.
The altar was divided into three levels, and there were four pillars symbolizing heaven, earth, sun, and moon. Eight gates and ten directions were set up, which was the same as the previous talismans he had seen.
Because it was the Golden Seal Altar, compared to the military altar of Dao Court Immortals, it seemed less grand and magnificent.
Because only one scattered talisman was completed, the talismans array looked like a virtual shadow. Inside the shadow, several lightning strands intersected, surrounding the central spirit aperture and forming the framework of the talismans array.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
At this moment, a seal hovered within the spirit aperture.
The Divine Decree: Supreme Heavenly Revelation!
The seal is the true form of the talisman, it is precisely the famous Shenxiao Lei Seal from Mount Jiuhua!
Qin Sang put away the talisman altar and carefully pondered for a moment. Suddenly, he opened his palm, and a talisman flickered in his palm.
Please provide me with the content you want translated. I'm ready!
A deafening thunderclap echoed through the air, and a bolt of lightning struck the corner of the cave dwelling.
It was the dead of night, and an eerie silence hung over the cave dwelling.
Qin Sang managed to conceal the power of the thunder and lightning, so as not to alert the cultivators outside.
He is now casting the Jade Pure Summon Thunder Talisman from the talismans.
Because talismans are special, cultivators only need to construct the first formless talisman pattern to cast the corresponding divine runes.
Of course, it starts weak, but as the talismanic altar is built, its power gradually increases.
Most importantly, wield this talisman as if it were your own divine power, forming it with a thought and unleashing its magical prowess with a flick of your hand.
>
Qin Sang's just-executed thunderclap was the manifestation of the Jade Purity Summon Thunder Talisman, formed with a flick of his finger.
Lingqiao, dispersal form, gathering form, every step must not be wrong.
Although divine talismans are powerful, drawing them is very complex. Especially intricate ones like this, they can't be completed in an instant. When engaging in a duel against another person, the time it takes to draw a talisman at the last moment would allow your opponent to act and potentially seize an advantage.
>
Therefore, monks tried every means to shorten the time.

The most common method is to use special spirit objects to make talisman paper, talisman brushes, and cinnabar. Spirit talismans are refined beforehand and can be directly struck against the enemy during combat.

There are also talismans, such as
the talisman discs used by Su Zinan and Wu Lao in the past.
There are also those who are exceptionally gifted, deeply understanding the ways of talismans. They have meticulously studied certain divine talismans, bringing their comprehension to an unparalleled level. Their spiritual apertures overlap, and the talisman forms simplify to their purest essence, retaining only the true meaning. With a mere point of their finger, they can manifest a complete talisman.
Such genius is ultimately just a minority, moreover, most divine talismans can only be used as means against enemies, requiring enormous effort to comprehend, making it ultimately not worth the cost.
This realm's talismanry flourishes, not only due to its complete transmission but also because the talismans hall allows ordinary cultivators to achieve the point of summoning talismans with a single finger.

All cultivators of the Leiting Jade Mansion practiced the High Heaven Divine Thunder Script, and they all understood the Jade Purity Summoning Lightning Talisman. This was their most commonly used and handy talisman because it could be cast instantly.
To some extent, the Yuqing Summoning Thunder Talisman can be considered their natal talisman, and after ascending to a higher rank, they will obtain even stronger talismans.
The role of the talisman altar is not limited to this.
Besides one's true divine symbol, other divine symbols formed gradually during the comprehension process will leave a divine symbol mark, stored in the talisman altar.
When using the talisman, one only needs to activate the divine talisman mark, and talismans can be conjured out of thin air. This saves cultivators a great deal of energy and time.
Even if the divine talismans have not been fully mastered, using a luo altar can increase the success rate, shorten the talisman casting time, and reduce the consumption of divine consciousness and mana.
When cultivators fight, the outcome is decided in an instant.
If they are all thunder department talismans, they can also obtain the empowerment of the talisman platform, enhancing their power, and there are countless benefits that cannot be expressed.
The Thunder Jade Manor's thunder techniques are unparalleled in the skill of Master Gui Shan, and there must be a corresponding Leibu divine talisman inheritance. By comprehending it through the altar, it would surely be much easier. Unfortunately, it is impossible to bestow such knowledge upon him, an outsider.
Qin Sang was not very interested in these divine talismans. He sought to recover his cultivation by receiving the talismanic inscription.
Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Then, Qin Sang began to recall the Morning True Jade Talisman, preparing to store his spirit.
“Sincerely decree from Heaven, nine heavens' great mandate. I, entrusted to receive, behold the glorious radiance... Supreme Divine Lightning, submit to the Precious Throne..."
Incantations flickered through Qin Sang's mind.
According to the Taoist method of storing gods, one must first recite the *Pure Heart Mantra*, the first of the Eight Great Divine Incantations, to purify the body and mind, eliminate distracting thoughts, and calm the spirit before storing a god.
Qin Sang naturally didn't need that much, and this wasn't the first time he had thought about it.
At the beginning of one's cultivation in 《天妖煉形》, visualizing the divine beast Qingluan is also a kind of thought contemplation.
At this moment, he was deeply immersed in stillness, revolving the "Cházhēn Yùfǔ Zhòu" mantra. His contemplation wasn't focused on deities or sacred images, but rather on the divine within himself.
Through tranquil contemplation, seek the true essence within. Observe your form and shadow.
My God, save my soul.
If one contemplates the Heavenly Gods, perhaps it would take some time. However, contemplating one's inner truth quickly evokes a response.
According to Taoist legends, there are 36,000 gods within the human body.
>
In the depths of his being, Qin Sang felt a glimmer of divine will stirring within him. With every thought, it rose and fell, ethereal and enigmatic, drifting like smoke. It seemed to be drawn towards the talismans platform, beckoning him closer. He sat within the protective embrace of the talisman, using it as a vessel for his being.
After an unknown amount of time, Qin Sang woke up leisurely and found that the divine sense was still there, not dissipated because of his distraction.
“This is the guardian deity of the altar”
Qin Sang muttered to herself, suddenly feeling a new sense of wonder.
In fact, the practice of visualizing the image of the Heavenly Deity (天神) is not about truly inviting a deity down from the heavens. What it involves is an even more profound and mysterious divine intention.

So-called "guardian deities of the altar" are actually divine will hidden within talismans. They cannot truly manifest, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people questioning Taoist legends.
Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!
However, as cultivation level improves and one cultivates diligently, day after day focusing on their divine essence, cultivators can feel the divine will gradually growing stronger.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
It is this divine intention that protects the cultivator's consciousness, preventing it from becoming confused.
Qin Sang pondered carefully, mainly perceiving the divine intent within. Although not very clear, he faintly felt a slight vibration of the Jade Buddha.
Just like his soul mark, it was imbued with the power of the Jade Buddha, its might undoubtedly extraordinary.
Qin Sang nodded secretly.
Then, he no longer hesitated and repeated the casting of the altar countless times.
One after another, the talismanic shapes continuously layered into the talisman array. When others saw Qin Sang's speed in casting the array, they were all dumbfounded.
With the ordinary blood exhausted, Qin Sang used the royal blood again. The talisman altar was nearly complete and could be barely used.
Soon, the talisman altar will be complete!
At this moment, the array of talismans exudes a power far exceeding that just now. Within the array, the divine thunder seal slowly rotates.
Lei Xi seemed to be composed of lightning, his entire body crystal clear.
Fleeting bolts of lightning surrounded Lei Xi, interweaving into a complex electrical net. These flashes seemed to be alive, their electric beams flickering. With just a slight thought from Qin Sang, thunder would erupt and the lightning would vanish.
Everything happens silently and imperceptibly. These flashes are the manifestation of symbols and will not leave the altar.
Here's the translation:

Having cultivated the Spirit Official General's Talisman of Taishang Zhengyi to its peak in one go, Qin Sang felt no fatigue.
As for the divine intent within the talismans, it's not as fast-acting. Qin Sang would need to continuously cast the Spirit Nurturing Art for a while. With his cultivation level, it wouldn't take too long.
He silently circulated his cultivation technique, his Qi sea churning. He breathed in the essence of heaven and earth, refining it into his body and maintaining his true essence at its peak level in the Foundation Establishment stage.

There is no need to suppress one's spiritual awareness, and true essence remains stable. However, before ascending to higher levels of the legal texts, the total amount of true essence and the speed at which it absorbs celestial energy reach their limits.

At the same time, Qin Sang also discovered another powerful function of the talisman altar: it could assist cultivators in their practice and enhance their cultivation speed!

He secretly thought, no wonder that in this world, cultivators from the moment they enter the Dao, must devote their minds to comprehending the shapes of talismans and pondering the divine beings. Both are time-consuming and laborious endeavors.
Even though the spiritual energy in this world is abundant, it's still too difficult. The talisman platform solves a major concern for cultivators to some extent.

To plan so much for the qualifications of a conferred rank, yet casting an altar is so simple.
Qin Sang shook his head slightly, stood up, and pushed the door open.
Before dawn broke, he glanced at the time and with a flash of his figure, he vanished.
Next, we should seek out the Flowing Gold Firebell Scroll of Thunderous Right Manor.
Not long after leaving the island, Qin Sang drove his escaping light towards the direction of Huozhi Island, preparing to visit Master Qi first. restrictions and spatial rifts intertwine everywhere. There are also terrifying ancient beasts hiding within, no weaker than Yuan Ying cultivators. Without a safe route, this old Daoist wouldn't dare...
