Talisman skills, alchemy skills, weapon refining skills, and formation skills are the four basic side jobs after the spiritual energy is revived.
Anyone who is a cultivator will choose one of them as their side job.
Fu Lu Shu is the side job chosen by the most people and has the widest influence. The other three major side jobs cannot keep up.
Without him, the other three side jobs can only be mastered by cultivators. Although the same is true for the Talisman Technique, even ordinary people who cannot practice Talismans can use them at will.
Generally, ordinary people cannot practice because the spiritual energy absorbed into the body will dissipate quickly.
However, the use of the talisman is activated by spiritual energy, so as long as a patient ordinary person, with a little thought and regular exercise, can still manage to introduce a trace of spiritual energy into the talisman and activate the spell engraved on the talisman.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you can't grasp even a trace of spiritual energy.
The spiritual energy confinement device developed by New Era Group can easily confine spiritual energy as long as it is worn on the body. By relying on the internal formation, the trapped spiritual energy can be used at will to activate the spell in the talisman.
Although he can't practice, he can use the talisman, which is a bit of comfort.
This is also the reason why talismans are so popular all over the world.
Although the elixirs of alchemy can cure diseases and even prolong life, they are too expensive and generally cannot be used by ordinary people.
The magical weapons and spiritual weapons of the weapon refining technique are not easily used by ordinary people.
Although the formation can be constructed as long as one understands the knowledge, and can also be activated using spirit stones, it is still a bit far away from ordinary people.
Only Talismans can truly meet people's daily needs.
Although more and more people are choosing this side job of talismans, the price of talismans has dropped rapidly, but this is a consumable item, and both monks and ordinary people have needs.
The high demand, suitability for daily life, and the convenience of talismans naturally led many impoverished monks to choose this side job.
Although some ordinary charms in the previous life were almost fifty yuan a piece, and there were even various discount packages, they were consumed quickly, and the materials for drawing the charms were high-quality and cheap, so there was still money to be made.
This is the main reason for the extremely rapid development of talismans.
Of course, the main reason why prices have plummeted is because some groups have developed the use of mechanical water drawing symbols. Focusing on formations, controlling machinery, and removing failed talismans, a factory can produce 100,000 talismans every day.
When the news was first revealed, ordinary people were overjoyed, and the lower-level monks continued to complain, and a round of scolding wars started on the Internet.
Although there are as many types of spells as stars, there are not too many spells engraved on the talismans. The state strictly controls the depiction of dangerous talismans, and anyone caught will be imprisoned.
The most consumed items every day are cleaning talismans. According to official Chinese statistics, the number of cleaning talismans consumed every day has exceeded 100 million.
The function of the cleansing charm is very simple. After use, it can remove dirt from the body, even if you don't wipe your butt after going to the toilet. Of course, generally speaking, you still have to wipe your butt after going to the toilet. After all, if you don't wipe it, you will be psychologically miserable.
Now there are three kinds of talismans that Kimura Kazuki wants to draw.
Ghost-repelling talisman, spirit-suppressing talisman, and spiritual fire talisman.
These three kinds of talismans are also talismans often used by ordinary people after their spiritual energy has been revived.
Speaking of which, the development of talismans cannot be separated from the help of ghosts.
When the spiritual energy revived and all human beings could see ghosts with their naked eyes, a long-lasting chaos broke out. Ghost culture is prevalent all over the world. In the eyes of most humans, ghosts are synonymous with weirdness, terror and inexplicability.
Especially ghosts in horror movies are all caused by bugs. Many protagonist teams in horror movies end up being destroyed.
Regarding ghosts, the thinking of all mankind is deeply ingrained and cannot be changed in a short time.
Therefore, in the early stage of spiritual energy recovery, due to the appearance of ghosts, the side business of Talisman Technique was like a wild horse running wild, leaving the other three side businesses far behind.
Monks can easily fight ghosts with their own strength, but ordinary people can only rely on the spells in the talismans to fight against them. Therefore, the development of talismans developed rapidly in the early days of Reiki.
The ghost-repelling talisman, the spirit-suppressing talisman, and the spiritual fire talisman are the three basic talismans for dealing with ghosts.
If the ghost exorcism spell is engraved on a jade pendant, it will prevent the ghosts from approaching easily. If it is engraved on a talisman, it will cause great pain to the ghosts and weaken their strength in a short time.
If it is used on the soul of a small animal, its soul can be easily destroyed.
The main function of the Soul Suppressing Talisman is to imprison the ghosts, making them unable to move and can only be powerless and furious.
The Spirit Fire Talisman is the only offensive talisman. It is also the only offensive talisman that has not been banned by the country after the country stabilizes.
Because the spiritual fire talisman produces a spiritual fire when activated, this spiritual fire can directly act on the soul body. Ordinary people have physical protection, and without other means, ordinary spiritual fire talismans cannot break ordinary people's physical bodies.
Although ghosts were included in the civil system in previous lives, they even became a new nation.
However, there are always some evil spirits that use their own special characteristics to disrupt public order, so ordinary people will also keep spiritual fire talismans on their bodies or at home. The country tacitly allows residents to attack ghosts that break into private homes.
Of course, in addition to these three kinds of talismans, there are other talismans that can cause damage to ghosts. But ordinary people do not have access to these talismans. Even if they do, they are not allowed to purchase and use them under laws and regulations.
Although Mucunheshu is an ordinary person, he cannot practice. But in his previous life, he was a doctoral student at a spiritual academy, working in the Talisman Department, specializing in the study of new types of spells.
After all, the characterization of the spell itself has rules to follow. If you find these rules and make slight modifications in the subtleties, it is very likely that a spell with completely new functions will be produced.
There are many people like Mucun Kazuki. Although they cannot practice, they all silently contribute to the country.
The research on activating sword spirits was also proposed by Kimura Kazuki, and the Spiritual Training Institute also supported his work. After all, if it really succeeds, China's national power will develop rapidly.
The reason why Kimura Kazuki chose these three kinds of talismans is because these three kinds of talismans are easy to draw and not easy to fail.
The monks who chose the talisman art as a side job in their previous lives basically maintained a 90% success rate with ordinary talismans. Even the assembly line drawings of those groups can guarantee a 70-80% success rate.
Of course, this is just an ordinary talisman. Like those higher-level talismans, it is impossible to make them with running water. This is also the reason why those monks just trolled the Internet and did not protest on a large scale.
Only monks can carve higher-level talismans. There is no way a machine can succeed.
But Kimura Kazuki knew that this was not the previous life, a world where spiritual energy had not yet recovered, and the spiritual energy in the air was thin, so it was impossible to draw the talisman smoothly.
Because drawing talismans requires one go, and if you want to do it in one go, abundant spiritual energy is the basic condition.
If the output of spiritual energy is intermittent while drawing the talisman, it will basically end in failure.
Unfortunately...the basic conditions are not there. Kimura Kazuki knows that if he wants to draw the talisman smoothly, he will inevitably fail many times.
He is ready.
