Chapter 62: Wind Blade Symbol

  When Guan Ming mentioned the name Tang Qing, everyone in the scene, including several appraisers, showed deep surprise. In recent days, Yongyang City has been discussing one thing, that is, a disciple named Tang Qing of the Qingyu Gate has formed a Tian Di Bao Ti, which is a treasure body, a special physique that everyone envies between heaven and earth. Unfortunately, it is the cheapest Da Di Zhi Ti. It is said that a few days ago, the master of the Qingyu Gate took Tang Qing to the Wujipai, but was rejected at the door.

  So everyone's gaze at Tang Jing also gradually changed from surprise and admiration to sympathy and regret.

  It is well-known that from ancient times to the present, all those who have formed the body of the earth, without exception, are unable to break through the boundary of air. As of today, the reputation of the earthly body has become a waste body known to all people. Even ordinary innate qualities have the opportunity to break through the boundary of air, but the earthly body does not even have this opportunity, which is truly regrettable.

  "So you are Tang Qing, the disciple of Qingyu Men who formed the body of the earth. What a pity, what a pity..."

  Master Hong looked at Tang Qing and also shook his head in sigh.

  "Hong Da Shi's words are wrong. Although no one has broken through the realm of Qi until now, it doesn't mean that it can't be broken through, it's just that no one has succeeded yet." Guan Ming criticized Hong Da Shi for his improper words and actions, this statement is not unreasonable, but everyone present could hear that he was trying to comfort Tang Qing.

  Tang Qing shook his head in dismay and smiled wryly to himself. He never thought that after living for half a lifetime, he would be comforted by these young whippersnappers.

  He has gone through nine calamities, the hardships of which only he himself is clear about. As for this earthly body, he never put it in his heart. When he was crossing the sixth heaven punishment calamity, someone had said that no one had succeeded so far, but how could that be? He still crossed over smoothly and lived well. When he was crossing the ninth life-and-death calamity, someone had also said that no one had succeeded so far, but how could that be? He still crossed over smoothly and lived well.

  Compared to the abnormal Nine Heavens Tribulation, the earth's body is really nothing.

  On the side, Bi Yi looked at Tang Qing with some worry and secretly thought, "Does Guan Ming not know that forming a Da Di body represents a kind of despair? It must be very painful for Tang Qing. Why does Guan Ming still want to expose Tang Qing's scars in front of so many people? How detestable!"

  "Guangming turned around and continued to comfort him, 'Tang Qing, you don't need to worry about it either. As long as you have perseverance, nothing is impossible. Two years ago, when I wanted to become a disciple of Master Gu Ta, he said that my aptitude was not good, and it would be difficult for me to achieve anything in the field of talismans... Haha... Now, I've already refined the Ice Rain Talisman, and with time, I'll definitely become a talisman master. If I can do it, I believe you can too.'"

  "Hehe..."

  For Guan Ming's comfort, Tang Qing just smiled faintly. He really didn't want to continue on this topic and said, "It's almost noon, let's hurry up and exchange our spirit stones."

  Guang Ming fanned himself with a paper fan, gently tapping his forehead, and said with a hint of self-reproach, "Ah! It's also my fault for forgetting this matter. Master Hong, please help Tang Qing appraise the talismans he has refined."

  "Oh? You can also refine Refining Symbols?" Master Hong seemed somewhat surprised.

  "Doesn't it look like?" Tang Jing handed over the eighteen talismans he had refined himself and smiled.

  Coarse yellow paper, inferior law ink, made from three kinds of law ink. Master Hong is indeed the number one appraiser in Yongyan City. With just a glance at the talisman, he has already figured out the general idea. He can even distinguish between the three types of law ink - Wind Law Ink, Qi Law Ink, and Floating Spirit Law Ink - from their scent. Usually, using these three types of law ink can only refine clean talismans, but the symbol on this talisman is something Master Hong cannot understand.

  Between heaven and earth, formations have formation images, talismans have talisman images, and weapons have weapon images.

  Only after success, the talisman will condense to form a symbol, for example, when refining a talisman, it is necessary to draw various mysterious talismans. After drawing, the talismans will all condense and form a special pattern. This pattern is also known as the symbol, which means that the talisman is completed, otherwise it fails.

  Since this talisman has formed a symbol, it indicates that it is a usable talisman.

  But this symbol is not the symbol of the cleansing talisman, if it's not the cleansing talisman, could it be other talismans? It shouldn't be! With the Wind Script, Qi Script, and Floating Essence Script, these three scripts, apart from the Cleansing Talisman, I've never heard of them being able to refine any other talismans.

  "Haha, Tang Jing, the talismans you've refined are quite strange. If I'm not mistaken, they seem to have used the Wind, Air, and Floating Spirit three kinds of law seals." Guan Ming couldn't help but say that Tang Jing had some talent in the field of refining talismans, as he was able to discern the law seals used. He continued, "But from what I know, these three law seals can only refine Purification Talismans? This talisman of yours doesn't seem to be a Purification Talisman... could it be a defective talisman?"

  So-called residual symbols refer to some talismans that have formed a symbolic shape but have no actual effect.

  "Excuse me, old man, but I've never seen such a strange symbol before. Tang Qing, what kind of talisman did you refine?" Master Hong also looked bewildered, and the other appraisers came over to take a look, all of them extremely perplexed.

  "I don't know what you call this talisman, but it should be a wind-cutting talisman, right?" Tang Qing hadn't been in the secular world for a long time, and his understanding of talismans was still stuck in the past few hundred years. He didn't know if there had been any changes over the years, and he wasn't very clear about it either.

  It is said that when the Wind Blade Symbol was revealed, Master Hong and other appraisers in the arena were all stunned, then burst out laughing as if they had heard some hilarious joke.

  "Tang Jing, aren't you exaggerating a bit? Master Hong is the number one appraiser in Yongyang City, and every day he appraises thousands of talismans. He won't make mistakes." Guan Ming still maintained his smile, saying with a chuckle, "Besides, Wind Blade Talisman requires the use of nine kinds of law seals such as Wind, Swift Wings... but your talisman only contains three kinds of refining and purifying law seals. Moreover, Wind Blade Talisman is a first-class combat talisman that can only be refined by a true seal master." Guan Ming intentionally emphasized the words "true seal master", making his meaning very clear, reminding Tang Jing not to be arrogant.

  Master Hong's expression turned solemn, and he said, "Young Master Guan is not wrong. Refining the Wind Blade Symbol requires nine different kinds of law ink, and the symbol pattern of the Wind Blade Symbol is not like this either. Forgive me for my poor eyesight, I couldn't see what kind of symbols you refined."

  Tang Qing chuckled and said, "Who stipulated that Fengren symbols can only have one symbol?"

  Tang Qing's words immediately triggered the dissatisfaction of Master Hong and other appraisers, who scolded Tang Qing for being arrogant and ignorant. Guan Ming's face was also unhappy, and he rebuked, "Tang Qing! You must not be rude to Master Hong!"

  Tang Jing smiled at him, but didn't say a word. At this time, Tian Jinguang ran over, frowning and rubbing his hands together, making a "ba" sound with his mouth, and said uncertainly, "I'm telling you, Tang Jing, I've also bought Wind Blade Talismans before. Although they're expensive, one piece is worth it, the power is not small, but only a first-rate Refining Master can refine such things. Are you sure what you refined was a Wind Blade Talisman?"

  "It's not even a Three Pure Ones' talisman, just a small Wind Blade Talisman, would I deceive you?"

  Feng Blade Symbol is a first-class combat symbol known for killing without a trace, now being said by Tang Qing as simple as the Purification Symbol. That's something that only a first-class Refining Symbol Master can refine. And yet, Tang Qing says it's just a small Feng Blade Symbol?

  This Tang Jing is really too arrogant, too self-important, and simply has no bounds.

  Suddenly, Tang Qing picked up a talisman, held it between his index and middle fingers, and with a slight flick of his wrist, the talisman flew out and instantly transformed into a swift beam of light like a crescent moon!

  Whoosh——

  The crescent moon's swift light struck the wall of the great hall, and with a hiss, a neat and tidy crack appeared on the wall, about the same length as the crescent moon, sternly.

  The entire hall was silent, all the appraisers and apprentices were staring at the crescent-shaped crack on the wall, their faces shocked, eyes wide with horror, mouths agape, tongues tied, and their stunned expressions mixed with various disbelieving emotions.

  "Feng Ya Fu, you actually refined a real Feng Ya Fu... how is this possible..."

  After a long while, Master Hong finally came back to his senses from the deep shock, staring at the strange symbol on the talisman in his hand, but then fell into deep confusion again, muttering to himself, "The wind blade's symbol is clearly not like this, how could it..."

  "Wind, Wind Blade Symbol?"

  Guan Ming's expression at this moment was even more complex, with shock, horror, and more envy and jealousy. He never thought that Tang Jing would actually refine a Wind Blade Symbol, which meant that Tang Jing had already become a first-rate symbol refiner. This made Guan Ming, who had always been proud, unable to bear it. What he couldn't accept even more was that not only did Tang Jing refine the Wind Blade Symbol, but also used the resources needed for the Purification Symbol to refine the Wind Blade Symbol. If this got out, it would surely cause a sensation in Yongyang City.

  An ordinary talisman master needs nine kinds of law ink to refine a wind blade talisman, while he only needs three kinds of law ink, which are also very inferior law ink. What kind of concept is this? With the resources of one clean symbol, refining a expensive wind blade symbol, how powerful should this technique be, what value should it have!

  On the side, Bi Yi was also extremely shocked. The last time she saw Tang Qing personally refine a very exaggerated cloud and rain talisman with just a few symbols, she didn't expect that now he would actually refine a powerful wind blade talisman using three kinds of law ink. First, it was the fusion of the green fist, then the body of the earth, and now the wind blade talisman. It seemed like every time Tang Qing appeared, he brought her endless shock. She stared at this mysterious young man, just staring at him in a complicated way, getting lost in his gaze, and shouting in her heart: "Heavens! How many more unknown secrets is this guy hiding?!"

  The originally closed hall suddenly had a ray of sunlight shining over, and everyone looked up to find that the source of the sunlight was actually that narrow slit!

  Got it?

  The Tianyao Formation's tower was actually pierced through by Tang Qing's Wind Blade Symbol?

  Master Hong and the other appraisers' eyeballs almost fell out, they were very clear about the thickness of the array tower's walls, and even if the ordinary Wind Blade Talisman was powerful, it couldn't penetrate, let alone the Wind Blade Talisman, even a second-grade combat talisman would have some difficulty penetrating, now...

  My goodness!

  Tang Qing's Wind Blade Symbol, refined from the resources of the Purification Symbol, not only didn't weaken in power, but was instead over ten times stronger than an ordinary Wind Blade Symbol!

  This is unbelievable!

  Everyone in the field was shocked, except for Tian Jinguang, who showed a kind of crazy enthusiasm beyond shock. He rushed over, grabbed Tang Qing's arms excitedly and said, "Tang Qing! Master Tang, Old Master Tang, you are really awesome! You're actually a first-class Refining Symbol Master, too awesome!" As he spoke, he rushed over to the stone table, picked up the symbol flags, pointed at Master Hong and others, and shouted, "You guys hurry up and pay back the money! I used to buy so many Wind Blade Symbols here that were not even one-tenth as powerful as Tang Qing's. This is what a real Wind Blade Symbol looks like! It turns out that what I bought here before was all inferior stuff! I don't care, pay me back! Pay me back!"
