Because the talisman armor is divided into different levels, each level has three grades: low, medium and high.
Taking the Lingwu period talisman armor refined by Ye Li as an example, if his talisman armor can withstand the attack power of the late Lingwu period, then the first property will be perfect and get one point.
The second property is that after the talisman armor has fully exerted its defensive capabilities, the aura shield will not be completely destroyed when it is shattered.
Even if the talisman cannot be used for a short period of time, if it can be opened again after a period of recovery, it is of perfect nature and can get another point.
The one that can get two points at the same time is the top-grade talisman armor.
If the Lingwu Period talisman armor refined by Ye Li can defend against one or more attacks from the late Lingwu Period, and can, after being fully activated, not damage the rune formation inside when the shield is destroyed, then it can be considered a top-grade Lingwu Period talisman armor.
A mid-grade talisman armor has only one point in each of the two attributes.
That is, it cannot defend against attacks from the late Lingwu period, or it can defend against attacks, but once the shield is broken when it reaches its limit, the rune formation inside will be damaged and can no longer be used.
The low-grade talisman armor has zero points in both properties, which is considered to be a relatively poor grade. It can neither defend against attacks in the late stage of this realm, nor can it recover on its own. Once it is broken when it is fully exerted, it will be damaged. In a sense, this can be considered a consumable.
This type of talisman armor is the most common on the market and is relatively cheap. Even ordinary talisman masters can afford it and have the ability to replace it.
After Ye Li's spiritual energy channels on the rune armor were unblocked, he immediately began to draw the rune formation.
The six runes were definitely not easy for him, but since he didn't need to engrave the original runes, he only had to consider the fusion of the spiritual energy veins and the runes. He didn't have to consider the fusion of the spiritual energy veins, original runes and talismans like when refining talismans, so the difficulty was much lower.
Ye Li had already thought clearly beforehand about what kinds of runes to engrave on the talisman armor to form the formation, so he did not hesitate at all and directly began to guide the drawing according to his plan.
His movements were slow but very steady. After all, the casting of talisman weapons and armor of the lower level of the Lingwu Stage could have been done before the Lingdan Stage. Now that he had reached the Lingdan Stage, his control over spiritual energy and consciousness had become more subtle, so naturally, refining them was much easier.
Very quickly, he used the guidance pattern to transform and engraved all six runes onto the armor. Although his movements were a bit slow, fortunately he managed to complete them all.
Next, Ye Li poured the spiritual energy into the talisman armor, and walked along the six runes and spiritual energy veins. After all the runes were engraved and finalized, the casting of the talisman armor was basically completed.
He gradually reduced the flame and extinguished it, and when the rune armor began to cool and completely solidified, his first rune armor casting was completed.
After the temperature of the talisman armor dropped to normal temperature and was no longer hot, Ye Li held it in his hand and examined it carefully.
The breastplate looks silver with gray in color, a little dull, and is very plain overall, without any patterns or decorations that are irrelevant to practicality.
However, there are still many rune marks on the surface of the rune armor that were naturally formed during the casting process, which add a lot of beauty to the rune armor.
Ye Li designed the structure of the entire armor according to the drawings in the Fu Jia Lu, with movable blades for easy wearing and size adjustment.
After activating the entire talisman armor with spiritual energy, Ye Li felt the changes in the spiritual energy and the situation of the rune formation inside.
In general, the six formations inside can basically operate smoothly, and the power of the spiritual energy shield can definitely withstand the attack from the late spiritual mist period.
However, there were still many flaws in the casting of the six runes, and there were many problems in the flow of spiritual energy. Ye Li estimated that once the shield was fully exerted and was hit beyond its load, it would inevitably vibrate the rune formation inside, causing damage to the formation.
His talisman armor was not perfect in the second property, so it could only be considered a mid-grade talisman armor.
After looking at the first piece of talisman armor he had forged for a while, Ye Li finally showed a smile on his face.
Although the talisman armor cast for the first time failed to be perfect and become a top-grade talisman armor, it was generally very satisfactory. Ye Li's shortcomings were purely in experience and proficiency.
His understanding of runes was better than that of most people, so he was not bad in this aspect. He basically mastered the six runes perfectly in the first casting and was able to arrange and combine them in special positions.
This makes the first property of the talisman armor almost perfect and able to withstand the attacks of the late Spiritual Mist Period.
It was just that his experience and proficiency made the marks he carved not so smooth and precise, which caused flaws in the overall look and made it impossible to achieve the perfection of the second nature.
Putting away the talisman armor in his hand, Ye Li roughly knew where his problem lay. There was no way to solve the problem of proficiency and experience by taking shortcuts. He could only rely on continuous practice in the future to improve.
Looking at the fire collection box, he discovered that the red color of the three fire spirit stones at the bottom had been reduced by nearly a quarter. This meant that if he continued to cast the talisman armor, he could only use it four more times before he would have to replace the fire spirit stones.
After covering and putting away the fire collection box, Ye Li began to practice the Purple Talisman Technique to restore his own spiritual energy and consciousness power. After all, casting weapons consumes a lot of both.
As he continued to practice the Purple Talisman Technique every day, the chaotic power within his spiritual essence had become increasingly strong, and now the power of his talismans had increased significantly.
Moreover, his speed in drawing talismans reached an astonishing 405 strokes in a blink of his fingers, which means that he could draw a talisman of nine words and five characters in a blink of his fingers.
Therefore, his Extreme Flame Finger has also reached the level of Nine Characters and Five Elements. The color of the flame is blue with some purple. Ye Li knows that the color of the flame will be more difficult to change as time goes by. However, at this level, even if it only changes slightly, the power will be much greater.
And after practicing for almost a month, he also trained his Flame Gathering Talisman to the Earth Level.
The reason why it couldn't reach the Heavenly level was naturally the same as the Extreme Flame Finger, it was an incomplete talisman.
He once tried to use the Flame Gathering Talisman combined with the Extreme Flame Finger, and its power was beyond his imagination. When he pointed his finger, a column of flame as thick as a human head spurted out and directly opened a bottomless hole in the rock wall he was using for the experiment.
He felt that the power of the two talismans combined was at least five times greater, and the attack range was also greatly increased. When used to fight against huge monsters, the lethality would be much greater than that of a tiny flame.
