Chapter 28: The Great Rain Symbol
"Then kneel down."
Tang Qing's slender body slowly straightened up, his expressionless face calm and composed, his eyes serene and tranquil. He spoke unhurriedly, his voice as calm as ever, without a hint of joy or anger, as if he were talking about something very ordinary, in a gentle and carefree manner.
"Hahaha!"
Gao Yingcai burst out laughing, his contemptuous gaze fixed on Tang Qing, pointing with a flourish as he loudly declared, "Even someone of my exceptional talent needs to draw over 300 talismans and spend three quarters of an hour to refine a single Cloud Rain Talisman. And you, you dare to call yourself a Cloud Rain Talisman just by scribbling a few casual talismans? Do you even know how to write the three characters for 'Cloud Rain Talisman'? Do you think you have what it takes to refine a Cloud Rain Talisman? Ha ha ha!"
Tang Qing didn't say much, his index and middle fingers pinched the talisman, his wrist shook, and the talisman flew into the air about five meters high, stopping abruptly. After stopping, the talisman seemed to be standing in mid-air, its mysterious patterns flashing wildly on its surface. Suddenly, the talisman burst apart, dispersing into a dark cloud about seven or eight meters in diameter, which stood towering in the void like a majestic mountain range, making people feel a sense of oppression.
Good heavens! This dark cloud is too big!
To think that the spiritual symbol refined by Gao Yingcai just now was only transformed into a small cloud the size of a human head, and the spiritual symbol refined by this guy has actually turned into such a huge cloud!
Is this Yun Yu Fu?
No one was clear, everyone looked up with their heads held high, tense and staring, just as they were suspicious, dark clouds gathered, whoa! The heavy rain poured down like a waterfall, almost instantly, the apprentices within a 10-meter radius were all drenched to the bone by this crazy downpour, however, the rain did not stop, continuing to pour down wildly.
The people around were all stunned, amazed and bewildered, staring at the dark clouds above, staring at the pouring rain, they couldn't believe their eyes no matter what, each and every one of them was deeply immersed in shock, even being drenched by the heavy rain to the point of being soaked to the bone, yet still oblivious.
How is this possible!
No one believed it was true, they couldn't figure it out and didn't understand that the young man in front of them who looked weak and frail had actually successfully refined a Cloud Rain Token. The Cloud Rain Token that Gao Yingcai had just refined had turned into a cloud no bigger than a head, with rain that lasted only two or three seconds, while this guy's Cloud Rain Token had turned into a cloud as vast as a mountain range, with rain pouring down like a torrential downpour.
How did he manage to do it?
Everyone present, including Bi Yi, clearly saw that this guy only drew more than a dozen symbols, and it took less than thirty seconds. Is this possible? Isn't it said that refining the Cloud Rain Symbol usually requires over three hundred symbols? Only a true symbol master can complete it with a small number of symbols, but it's also impossible to complete it with just over a dozen symbols! Bi Yi gazed deeply at Tang Jing in front of her, and her inner shock was much greater than anyone else. She had thought that this guy was just arrogant, but she never expected him to actually refine the Cloud Rain Symbol, not only did he refine it, but also refined an extremely exaggerated Cloud Rain Symbol.
Never seen him practicing, yet he can integrate and master the Qingquan skill.
Although he had no cultivation at all, he could slap Zhang Yuanbai, who was in the fifth layer of foundation building, into a pig head with two palms.
He had never mentioned runes before, not even a single word, yet he was now able to create an astonishing and shocking Cloud Rain Rune.
Bixi suddenly remembered that he had shown him the purification symbol he had refined earlier, and he said it was okay. Bixi thought he didn't understand but pretended to, being arrogant and perfunctory. Now thinking back, when he said "it's okay", he really was just humoring himself. He not only understood, but also understood much more than Bixi had imagined. Gradually recalling the strange behavior of this guy in front of him, sometimes it was a bit too casual, until now Bixi finally realized that he wasn't being strange, he was truly arrogant, with an air of randomness and nonchalance.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! You've only drawn a dozen or so talismans, how could you possibly refine a Cloud and Rain Talisman in just a few tens of seconds?! Not even my father could accomplish that, what makes you think you can?! You must have used some kind of demonic magic! Definitely!"
Gao Yingcai's mouth was agape, his expression shocked and horrified, his eyes wide with incredulity. He couldn't believe it, nor could he accept such a fact.
"Open your dog eyes and take a good look!"
Tang Qing remained still, his expression unchanged. His left hand once again raised the Array Pen and stroked the Law Ink, which fell onto the yellow paper. The pen moved in a majestic dragon-like motion, this time at an even faster speed. After finishing the stroke, his right hand's index and middle fingers pinched the Spirit Symbol, and with a flick of his wrist, the symbol flew swiftly and landed precisely on Gao Yingcai's brow.
Wow!
The spirit symbol transformed into a dark cloud about 7 or 8 meters in diameter, and the torrential rain instantly enveloped Gao Yingcai like a waterfall.
"You!!"
Gao Yingcai was in a panic, constantly wiping his eyes with his hands. He felt like he was trapped in the ocean and couldn't breathe freely. As soon as he opened his mouth, rainwater poured in, causing him to cough uncontrollably.
"Take a good look!"
No end, no stop. Tang Qing's left hand refined the spiritual symbols, while his right hand threw them out. The coordination of his hands was seamless, as layer upon layer of spiritual symbols stuck to Gao Yingcai's brow. The dark clouds also piled up, one layer on top of another. Originally seven or eight meters in size, the dark cloud had transformed into a true mountain range of clouds, enveloping Gao Yingcai within, completely obscuring his figure from view.
Until the yellow paper on the stone table was gone, this finally stopped. Tang raised his sword eyebrow and shook his head, as if he still had something to say, but also somewhat unenthusiastic. After waving at Bi Yi, he turned and left.
When the crazy rain gradually stopped, the dark clouds also dispersed, and everyone finally came back to their senses from their deep shock. When they saw Gao Yingcai, who was laughing recklessly just now, lying on the ground with his belly bulging like a drowned chicken, although he had lost consciousness, his body convulsed and spat out clear water from his mouth in waves.
Biqi also came back to her senses from the shock, and when she saw Gao Ying being drenched by the rainwater, her expression changed greatly. She looked around left and right, didn't see Tang Qing, and couldn't be bothered to deal with the purification talisman she had refined, hastily leaving.
It wasn't long after Biyi left that the news spread to the Tianyao Array Tower, and many talisman makers came out from it. Among them were two who still had a high reputation in Yongyang City. When they saw the accumulation of puddles inside the manor, they were extremely puzzled. When they heard that a young man had just used only a dozen or so talismans to refine a cloud and rain talisman that could transform into a dark cloud seven or eight meters in size, they shook their heads in disbelief. However, as more and more disciples came out to testify, they also began to be shocked.
When they tried to find that so-called mysterious young man, the other party had already disappeared without a trace. However, a young man named Ah Lang used only a dozen or so symbols to create a shocking cloud and rain talisman. This event not only shocked many symbol cultivators in the Tianyao Array Tower but also began to spread throughout Yongyang City.
