The process of creating a Xuan Talisman cannot be disturbed. Once interrupted, the talisman fails, and the creator will suffer backlash, so light, so severe; light will consu the spirit, while heavy may pose life-threatening danger.
It was Beisitian’s first ti creating a Xuan Talisman in this world, and she must exercise extre caution. This body can no longer withstand any harm!
Thus, she chose the later part of the night, around one o’clock in the morning, when people are deeply asleep, leaving no worry of disturbance.
Beisitian patiently waited for the ti, quietly pushed the door open to step into the courtyard, intending to draw the talisman with the aid of moonlight.
She placed a palm-sized piece of yellow paper on her left palm, gripped a brush with her right hand, took a deep breath, and with a slight tremble of her wrist, seamlessly drew the talisman on the yellow paper as fluidly as flowing water.
For her first talisman creation, she chose the simplest Xuan Talisman which could strengthen the body. When paired with certain foods and herbs, it could replenish vital energy and blood in the shortest possible ti, thus enhancing physical fitness.
This shortest ti might be two or three days, or it could be two weeks. The effect varies for different people. If a person’s body has a repelling charm, the effect ti will be prolonged.
Drawing the talisman is relatively simple; Spiritual Pointing is the final and also the most crucial and difficult step!
The Spiritual Pointing process is where the talisman maker concentrates their spirit to make the Xuan Talisman effective. Many people fail to beco a Mystic Doctor because they get stuck at Spiritual Pointing!
The requirents for a Mystic Doctor regarding spirit are extrely high; only when the three are in harmony can Spiritual Pointing be completed!
Beisitian was not a beginner; when she drew the final stroke of the talisman, her eyes, bright like morning stars, suddenly widened. It seed like sothing flashed in her pupils, fleeting and so fast that it was impossible to see!
Just as the light flashed in her pupils, the talisman paper fluttered in Beisitian’s palm, then settled back into silence.
Talisman formation!
Beisitian breathed a sigh of relief. After all, she had only been using this body for two months; she really feared failing her first talisman creation. Fortunately, after drinking mushroom soup for half a month, her spirit had recovered a lot. With her previous life’s experience, she ultimately unified her spirit.
Beisitian had prepared a vat of clear water early on. After completing the Xuan Talisman, she placed it above the vat mouth, and it suddenly ignited without fire, swiftly turning into a small handful of grey ashes falling into the clear water.
Beisitian drank the talismanic water, and a faint warmth spread to her limbs, knowing that the Xuan Talisman was working.
Though weak, this body did not exhibit any repelling charm phenonon; otherwise, as a Mystic Doctor, it would be a great irony. More importantly, it would be a hassle, spending the sa amount of ti without getting the corresponding effect.
Drinking the talismanic water for two or three days before embarking on a long journey will prevent panting, making up for so vital energy and blood.
The last ti she walked back from Qingzhou Town, Beisitian, feeling as energized as if injected with adrenaline, went to herd sheep. Once the excitent wore off, it felt as if her body wasn’t her own; it took a week to fully recover.
Afterwards, just the thought of going to Qingzhou Town again made Beisitian shudder; her physical condition was poor, making her feel exhausted at heart.
If the body is well, everything will be energetic!
For three consecutive days, Beisitian kept creating Xuan Talismans for strengthening the body, her physique improving day by day with very noticeable changes!
After drinking for three days, although Beisitian still hadn’t gained much flesh, her eyes beca spirited, her walking steady, and her words carried more confidence.
The change isn’t rapid; Mystic Doctors are revered and admired worldwide precisely because of the mysterious Xuan Talisman. The Xuan Talisman acts quickly without causing any adverse symptoms.
The original owner’s body had been too depleted, which slightly lowered the Xuan Talisman’s effect, akin to the saying that an empty body doesn’t absorb nourishnt.
Beisitian prepared to make the next set of Xuan Talismans specifically for replenishing vital energy and blood, not only for body strengthening but also to improve her complexion.
She also wanted to go up the mountain to find so wild produce. Living on nothing but cornbread and salted vegetables, her body received no nutrition, so how could it gain any flesh?
In her mory, the original owner was quite adorable as a child. If she gained so weight and beca fairer, she should look beautiful.
Beisitian cared sowhat about this; after all, what woman doesn’t cherish her appearance?
One couldn’t rush the replenishnt of energy and blood. It had to be gradual. Relying on the strengthening Xuan Talisman to enhance so physical stamina was actually a process of replenishing energy and blood. Insufficient energy and blood cause uncontrollable sighs, labored breathing, and dizziness when standing up after sitting, all very noticeable symptoms.
Beisitian persisted in drinking mushroom soup. Besides creating Xuan Talismans to replenish energy and blood, she also made so to improve sleep. Otherwise, creating talismans in the middle of the night might still be manageable in the short term, but over ti, it would deplete her spirit.
Beisitian drank the talismanic water and imdiately returned inside to sleep. She had to leave early for Qingzhou Town the next morning. This ti, she again planned to walk, not to save money but to exercise.
Everything is interrelated, and nothing happens overnight!
Upon waking in the morning, Beisitian put an army-green satchel into a blue cloth wrap and left with the package. She planned to bring back so food; a single bundle might not suffice, so she ntioned it to Mrs. Qin, who gave her this army-green satchel.
Last ti, it took more than three hours; this ti, it only took two to reach Qingzhou Town. Beisitian was happy about the progress.
Arriving at Bao Niang Embroidery Workshop, Beisitian noticed a different woman, around her twenties, sitting behind the counter instead of Xiuling, likely a young wife. Her eyes curved in a smile, more amiable than Xiuling.
As soon as Beisitian entered, the woman stood up and asked, "Do you need anything?"
The woman gave Beisitian a once-over, her gaze clear, simply observing.
"I’m here to see Sister Bao Li."
Upon hearing this, the woman’s eyes brightened, and she eagerly asked, "Are you Little Tian’er?"
Beisitian nodded, it seed Sister Bao Li had inford her in advance.
"It’s really you, co with . Our boss said when you co, just directly bring you to her embroidery room! You can call Chun Ni." As Chun Ni spoke, she lifted the door curtain to lead her back.
Beisitian entered Zhang Baoli’s embroidery room, where she was busy embroidering in front of the fra.
It seed to be a door curtain.
Zhang Baoli had been sowhat anxious during this ti, as Beisitian hadn’t returned since she left. Although she knew the distance from Kao Village wasn’t short, the ti felt too long.
She regretted not retaining Beisitian’s address back then, but had she not returned soon, she was indeed planning to visit Kao Village!
Zhang Baoli worried that Beisitian had been poached by soone else, constantly replaying that day’s transaction scene, regretting deeply. That day, she was indeed foolish; regardless of the handkerchief’s material, the double-sided embroidery’s craftsmanship alone warranted a higher pay, which would ensure Beisitian stayed!
With so much on her mind, Zhang Baoli couldn’t still her thoughts even during embroidery. Upon hearing a noise, she looked up and was overjoyed to see Beisitian!
