Without the obstruction of the Tianhun Society, Ye Li's progress was very rapid. He headed all the way to the coast of the East China Sea. In just a few days, he had arrived at the Pheasant Valley.
Although Ye Li was the last person to set out for Pheasant Valley, he was the first to arrive with his speed.
He estimated that it would take at least five to ten days for everyone to arrive, so he simply rested in the Pheasant Valley.
Previously, in the ruins of the Ascension Palace, Ye Li obtained a golden sword talisman and a fifteen-layer talisman, but he never had the chance to study them.
During these ten days, he should be able to master the use of the golden sword, and perhaps even gain a preliminary grasp of this high-level talisman.
Ye Li’s Great Golden Sun Phoenix Talisman could be considered a high-level talisman, but with only one talisman, it was still a bit small-scale when used in battle.
Especially since Ye Li's spiritual energy and spiritual power were enormous, it was obviously a waste to use them only to maintain the operation of a high-level talisman.
Ye Li tried to activate two Great Golden Sun Phoenix Talismans at the same time but was always unsuccessful, and even if the second talisman could be successfully released, it could not summon a second Phoenix incarnation.
He always felt that there was a secret in the Great Golden Sun Divine Phoenix Talisman, but he did not uncover it for the time being.
Ye Li found a secluded place in the Pheasant Valley, and then took out the top-grade divine golden sword.
A top-grade divine talisman must first undergo a ceremony of recognizing its master. He held the golden sword in his hand, and instantly poured his divine power and spiritual essence into the golden sword.
A golden rune flashed inside the golden sword that had not recognized its master.
With Ye Li's ability to recognize runes, he instantly memorized this rune.
A rune light flashed in his hand, and Ye Li imprinted the golden rune mark on the golden sword.
The golden sword suddenly rose into the air and floated in front of Ye Li, constantly vibrating and making bursts of buzzing sounds.
This vibration method is very strange. Not only is the speed extremely fast, but it also has an inexplicable trajectory.
This high-speed vibration trajectory instantly cuts through the air around the sword, emitting a continuous buzzing sound.
This vibration continued uninterruptedly. Ye Li, the weaponsmith, instantly understood that the purpose of this vibration was to allow the sharp power of the released gold-type spiritual energy to be more fully exerted.
The display of this kind of casting technique was extremely advanced, even Ye Li himself could not do it.
Of course, this does not mean that this weaponsmith's weaponsmithing skills are better than Ye Li's. It just means that in terms of the use of the power of the metal element, Ye Li is no match for him.
However, the opponent may not be able to surpass Ye Li in the use of fire power or other attribute powers.
Ye Li stretched out his hand and touched the golden sword. A stream of spiritual energy in his hand poured into it. The vibration of the golden sword became faster, and the whole sword turned into a blurry and hazy golden shadow.
The spiritual energy of the gold element was densely covering the golden sword. Just by shaking the sword lightly, it could tear a big hole in the air.
After Ye Li established a connection with the golden sword, countless rune marks flashed through his mind. These runes were the control runes that came with the golden sword.
The golden sword also has a spirit, but the spirit of an ordinary talisman is not as concrete as that of a Dao-level talisman or some special talismans such as the one in the Liuyanyan Suanlu.
Generally, the soul power of the spirit of a talisman is relatively weak, and it can only gradually grow after many years of nurturing.
Ye Li silently went over the various ways to control the golden sword in his mind, and then he understood the characteristics of this golden sword.
A rune light flashed in his hand, and the golden sword instantly split into two in the air, turning into two blurry golden sword shadows.
Although the two sword shadows looked exactly the same, only Ye Li himself knew that only one of the two sword shadows was actually a real talisman sword, and the other was completely transformed from the gold element's spiritual energy.
Although this sword is not a physical entity, its power is no weaker than that of a physical golden sword. Moreover, this golden sword can not only release one sword shadow, but will transform into more sword shadows as the user continuously injects spiritual power and soul power.
As Ye Li's spiritual power and soul power continued to be activated, the golden sword began to split continuously, and sword shadows condensed in the air, and thirty-six golden sword shadows appeared in an instant.
The thirty-six sword shadows consumed a total of half of Ye Li's spiritual power, while the consumption of soul power was less than one-third. After all, Ye Li's soul power was far greater than that of ordinary people.
"These thirty-six sword shadows should be the limit that ordinary Talisman Saints in the early stage can reach. They can no longer split out more sword shadows.
And even if they can split out more sword shadows, their minds will be difficult to control, and the sword shadows will become very disobedient."
Ye Li said secretly.
Upon hearing this, Tunri said, “This talisman is quite good and suitable for you to use. With your spiritual power and soul power, you should be able to release more sword shadows.
If these sword shadows were combined into a sword formation, they would surely form an offensive as violent as a storm.
And if the sword shadows can be concentrated together to launch an attack, the destructive power formed should exceed the limit of your current realm."
Ye Li nodded when he heard that, and continued to pour his spiritual energy into the golden sword.
His spiritual power and soul power were also constantly increasing, and in an instant seventy-two golden sword shadows appeared in the air.
The buzzing sound made by the vibrating sword shadow was like countless wasps flying, and it made people feel numb all over.
The sharp force of the sword shadow when it vibrated cut the air in the air into pieces.
Under Ye Li's control, seventy-two sword shadows were constantly flying in the air. Sword beams shot out from the sword shadows, cutting deep marks on the surrounding ground, trees and rocks.
However, at this time Ye Li could only perform the simplest control on these sword shadows. If his movements were a little more complicated, several sword shadows would collide with each other, and finally the forces between them would cancel each other out.
After all, it was the first time that Ye Li used this talisman. Even if he could divide his attention and do multiple things, it was difficult for him to control the seventy-two sword shadows to make changes in attack and defense as easily as with his own arms.
However, Ye Li has already figured out how to use the golden sword, and also understood how powerful this talisman is. Once he can smoothly control the sword shadow to launch attacks, such a talisman will be enough to replace several talismans.
The power of his spiritual consciousness and soul should have surpassed the initial expectations of the talisman master who forged this golden sword.
So even though this golden sword is only a top-grade divine talisman, in Ye Li's hands, it has clearly exerted a power that is almost as powerful as a talisman of the Dao level.
