Cultivation: I have an equipment slot

Chapter 142 Elder Huo's Admiration
For a while.

Elder Huo even felt a little terrified.

He only gave Zhang Yan a basic understanding of talismans, but the other party actually learned it quite well.

No.

It's not just about looking good.

This is exactly the same.

Elder Huo scratched his head.

Isn't this a bit too outrageous?

If you say, "I'll teach you step by step, and you'll learn exactly the same thing," he can understand.

But how come you've learned almost everything from just one book on talismans?
This is too outrageous!
He took a deep breath, his eyes filled with shock as he looked at Zhang Yan.

now.

He suddenly understood a principle.

That's why Zhang Yan is so popular!
Don’t say anything else.

We'll say that you see a young person operating something, and their actions are exactly the same as yours, even their thoughts and ideas are exactly the same as yours.

How could you not be tempted?

Can you remain unmoved by pity?
Okay, even if you can stay still.

So would you deny this young man's abilities?
Of course not!
The reason is also very simple.

Because denying him is the same as denying yourself!

No one can deny themselves.

Except for the losers.

But many people regret that they took many detours when they were young.

Although they cannot go back to the past and change their fate.

However, if you can guide a young person who is very similar to yourself, that would be a good thing.

Elder Huo could tell from Zhang Yan's actions that he had never drawn talismans before.

Because his movements appeared very clumsy.

but!】

Despite being clumsy.

But he learns really fast.

Only half of the talisman was drawn.

He already seemed very familiar with it.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Elder Huo would never have believed that Zhang Yan had just begun learning to draw talismans.

"finished!"

Suddenly.

Zhang Yan finished his last stroke.

He wiped away non-existent sweat from his forehead.

He looked at the talisman on the table.

This is a very basic talisman, a speed talisman. Once activated, it allows one to move as lightly as a swallow, achieving the effect of flying.

"Is that all?" Elder Huo's aged face showed a puzzled expression.

He doesn't understand.

He really doesn't understand.

How can someone be such a genius!
It would be fine if someone was only a genius in one area.

But, damn it, he's actually a genius in all departments.

It's not just about the speed of cultivation.

Even weapon crafting and spiritual value!
The other party is proficient in everything.

They were even highly skilled in magical combat.

Although Zhang Yan rarely engaged in magical duels with others.

But Elder Huo wasn't stupid.

He was at the late Foundation Establishment stage and could clearly sense the fluctuations of magical power within Zhang Yan's body.

That was clearly not the kind of mana fluctuation that an ordinary early Foundation Establishment cultivator could have.

It is not only pure, but also profound.

In addition, there was the previous attitude of the Qingheng faction's higher-ups towards Zhang Yan.

He could easily deduce it.

Zhang Yan is definitely a foundational cultivator in magic.

Moreover, the supernatural abilities he has cultivated are at least no less than those of the sect leader, Mo Changqing.

This kid is practically the next sect leader.

For an instant.

Elder Huo had already formed a sliver of a judgment in his mind.

His gaze towards Zhang Yan revealed a complex emotion.

Such a good disciple.

It's a pity it's not from their Wanfu Peak.

It's from Muling Peak!

Muling Peak is one of the main peaks of the Qingheng Sect.

Although the lineage has never been broken, no one has ever been able to become the leader of the Qingheng Sect.

As the main peak primarily composed of spirit masters, Wood Spirit Peak has never experienced a break in its lineage, thanks to the large group of spirit masters. It is practically a mid-tier main peak.

However, just as the Spirit Master was both their strength and their weakness.

Although the Spirit Value Masters provided a huge base for Wood Spirit Peak.

However, this also limited their development.

After all, it's different from professions like weapon refiner, alchemist, and talisman maker.

In the later stages, it becomes somewhat difficult for Spirit Value Masters to quickly monetize their skills.

Each medicinal herb takes decades or even hundreds of years to mature.

Even high-grade elixirs require even longer processing time.

Therefore, it's extremely difficult, almost impossible, for a single Spirit Value Master to quickly convert their wealth into cash and acquire a large number of Spirit Stones.

Talisman makers, alchemists, and weapon refiners are all professions that can quickly generate income.

After all, they are all consumables.

It is something that every cultivator needs.

Even if a Spirit Master manages to cultivate spiritual materials, they will still be in a weak position in the entire cultivation world.

Therefore, talisman makers, weapon refiners, and alchemists of the same level look down on spirit value masters.

But that's the spirit value master they looked down on.

It's that Muling Peak that we look down on.

Such a brave disciple has appeared!

Elder Huo was so envious he almost cried.

now.

Zhang Yan had no idea what Elder Huo was thinking.

His attention remained focused on the Swiftness spell.

"What a pity."

Zhang Yan picked up the Swiftness Talisman, glanced at it, and immediately sighed.

This Swiftness Talisman has been completed.

However, it wasn't made perfectly.

There are three minor flaws inside.

It can only achieve 80% of the effect of a true speed talisman.

It's not 100% effective.

This was truly beyond Zhang Yan's expectations.

After all, he had the blessing of the initial understanding of talismans.

He had originally thought he would be able to draw a perfect talisman on his first try.

In retrospect, he really overestimated himself.

Elder Huo: "..."

Seeing Zhang Yan's dissatisfied expression.

Elder Huo felt a knot of resentment in his heart at this moment.

This is the first time I've drawn it like this, and I'm still not satisfied.

"Master Zhang, I never imagined your talent in talisman drawing was so outstanding!"

Elder Huo couldn't help but speak to Zhang Yan.

"To be honest, I don't have much talent in talisman making. The reason I've performed so well is simply because I've studied and practiced diligently," Zhang Yan said humbly to Elder Huo.

He just wanted to appear humble.

Moreover, he really doesn't have much talent in the art of talismans.

His performance was so good, regardless of whether he used cheats or not, it was truly because he worked incredibly hard!

"???"

Observe how humble the other person is.

Then think about your own disciples.

Elder Huo gritted his teeth.

Look, look, that's why we say they're the true inheritors of the teachings!

Talented, polite, and humble.

If such a person cannot become the true successor, then who can?
"Elder Huo, I wonder if my performance was satisfactory?"

Seeing Elder Huo standing there in a daze, Zhang Yan quickly came over and asked.

"Yours..."

Elder Huo looked at the talisman in Zhang Yan's hand.

For the first talisman I've ever drawn, it's already perfect.

It's almost impossible to find any fault with it.

Not to mention the three minor flaws.

Even in the Iraq war-damaged mode, as long as the talisman can be made to function.

That's fine with me.

"It's alright, just so-so, I'd say it's not bad."

Elder Huo glanced at Zhang Yan, then put his hands behind his back and said coldly.
