"You little rascal, am I really that amazing?"
Ruan Xinxue's eyes twinkled as she smiled, evidently pleased. In her mind, as long as she didn't hold Qin Yang back, it was enough.
"Yes, of course you are."
Qin Yang smiled and said.
"Sister Ruan, what I just talked about is the basic knowledge in the Immortal Cultivation Realm. For cultivators on the path of cultivation, besides cultivating spiritual power to gain great strength, some are also skilled in Talisman Dao, Array Dao, and Alchemy Dao, which can also enhance one's strength."
Qin Yang said with a smile.
"Talisman Dao, Array Dao, Alchemy Dao?"
Ruan Xinxue's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly as she repeated.
"You little rascal, are the talismans you gave me the Talisman Dao?"
Ruan Xinxue looked at Qin Yang.
"Yes, that's right. Some cultivators specialize in Talisman Dao, drawing various talismans to throw during battles to attack enemies. Talisman Dao, when cultivated to a certain level, is quite formidable. It can be used for offense, defense, and as a means of survival or escape. Some top-level talismans can even tear through space to aid in escape."
Qin Yang nodded and said with a smile.
"I see."
Ruan Xinxue nodded. She had received many talismans from Qin Yang and knew how to use them, having witnessed their wonders.
"As for Array Dao, Sister Ruan, what do you think those Spirit Gathering Grass resemble?"
Qin Yang pointed to the side of Bu Xian Pavilion at the patch of pale silver Spirit Gathering Grass, gently swaying in the breeze.
"It looks like a windmill."
Ruan Xinxue, with her bright eyes, said after a glance.
"Yes, within this patch of Spirit Gathering Grass is actually a hidden array, known as the Spirit Gathering Array. The Spirit Gathering Grass is planted in a specific formation by me, gathering the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to this place at a speed dozens of times faster. If the Spirit Gathering Grass were planted randomly, it wouldn't be able to absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi as quickly."
"This demonstrates the power of arrays. No Immortal Cultivation sect can do without an Array Master. The Spirit Gathering Array and the sect's Guardian Sect Array are indispensable."
Qin Yang explained to Ruan Xinxue.
"This array is really amazing too."
Ruan Xinxue blinked her clear eyes and said. Talisman Dao has its advantages, and this Array Dao seems to be just as strong.
"The path of arrays is divided into Killing Arrays, Defense Arrays, Trapping Arrays, Illusion Arrays, Support Arrays, etc. Killing Arrays are naturally used to attack or kill enemies with arrays, and Defense Arrays are primarily for defending against attacks."
Qin Yang explained.
"And what about Trapping Arrays, Illusion Arrays, and Support Arrays?"
Ruan Xinxue nodded and asked. These arrays are easy to understand from their literal names.
"Trapping Arrays and Illusion Arrays have some similarities. However, Trapping Arrays are relatively easy to set up, generally used to temporarily trap enemies. Trapping Arrays can drain the enemy's strength, allowing one to defeat the enemy or gain time during escape. On the other hand, Illusion Arrays are more complex to arrange. Many Illusion Arrays can impact a cultivator's consciousness, and potent ones can trap someone forever, leaving them unable to escape, ultimately destroying both body and soul."
"Support Arrays are not offensive; they are used to aid cultivators in their cultivation, like the Spirit Gathering Array."
Qin Yang explained.
"Compared to Talisman Dao, arrays are generally less used in direct confrontational battles against enemies, as setting up arrays requires time, which enemies are unlikely to give you."
"Oh, so that's what Array Dao is about."
Ruan Xinxue nodded.
"As for Alchemy Dao, it's quite straightforward. It's about alchemists refining various elixirs to assist cultivators in their strength enhancement during regular cultivation, or to cause a sudden surge in strength during battles. There are many types of elixirs. Some can restore consumed spiritual power and assist in cultivation, like the Primordial Spirit Pill. Some play a crucial role during advancement, while others can temporarily boost combat power."
Qin Yang explained one by one.
"You little rascal, you know all of this? You're really impressive."
Ruan Xinxue's eyes sparkled as she rested her chin on her hand, looking at Qin Yang.
"Haha, actually, the great Dao is vast, and what I know is just a drop in the ocean. In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, apart from the Talisman Dao, Array Dao, and Alchemy Dao, there are other paths like Beast Taming Dao, where cultivators can control demon beasts to fight, Puppet Dao, which involves controlling puppets in battle, and so on. When these Daoist Techniques are mastered at a high level, they grant cultivators immense power and can earn them esteemed positions in the Immortal Cultivation Realm."
Qin Yang said with a gentle smile.
"I see."
Ruan Xinxue nodded.
"Sister Ruan, although you haven't activated your spirit root yet and cannot directly cultivate techniques, you have a rare Ice Skin Jade Bone physique. Your bones already contain a trace of spiritual power. I plan to begin by teaching you Talisman Dao."
Qin Yang said. This is the advantage of extraordinary talent—spiritual power has already begun to gather in the body even before cultivating any technique.
"Talisman Dao? Sure."
Ruan Xinxue's beautiful eyes lit up momentarily before she agreed. The talismans Qin Yang gave her were all very magical. Learning Talisman Dao from the little rascal meant she could draw talismans too.
"Sister Ruan, as it's your first time learning today, I'll start by teaching you one hundred basic Ice Runes."
Qin Yang said with a smile.
"Sister Ruan, watch closely."
Saying this, Qin Yang channeled spiritual power from his fingertips and drew in the air, forming an ice-white rune.
The rune glowed a faint ice-white light, emanating a slight chill.
"This is the first Ice Rune among the basic runes."
Qin Yang looked at Ruan Xinxue and said.
"So magical."
Ruan Xinxue extended her slender hand and traced the rune drawn by Qin Yang, and immediately, the rune flickered and disappeared.
"Did you memorize it?"
Qin Yang asked with a smile.
"Yes."
Ruan Xinxue nodded.
Qin Yang then effortlessly drew the second Ice Rune, a curved rune emitting a faint ice-white glow.
Ruan Xinxue traced it with her finger. Once she got the strokes right, the second rune flickered gently and vanished.
An hour later, Qin Yang had finished drawing the most basic one hundred Ice Runes.
"Did you remember them all?"
Qin Yang asked softly, looking at Ruan Xinxue.
"Yes, I remembered them, little rascal. These runes are so intriguing."
Ruan Xinxue's eyes sparkled as she nodded, not understanding why but finding these runes not that difficult.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yang smiled slightly. Sister Ruan's physique had already awakened somewhat, and her memory and talents were beginning to show.
"Sister Ruan, next, I'll teach you how to make talismans."
Qin Yang said.
"To make ordinary low-level talismans, three essential elements are needed: talisman paper, beast blood for drawing the runes, and someone who has mastered a certain number of runes."
As Qin Yang spoke, with a wave of his right hand, a light and soft piece of talisman paper appeared in his palm.
