Lin Ming used True Essence Transmission Sound to quickly tell Wang Yuheng a series of material processing methods, many of which were quite complex.
However, Wang Yuhan has a solid foundation in seal carving and she has an excellent memory. Lin Ming said a lot, but she only responded with "I understand" before starting to work on those complex materials.
Wang Yuheng's skill in handling materials is extremely pure and skilled. Various materials in his hands are like magic tricks, constantly changing colors and luster. Such intricate operation steps, under Wang Yuheng's white and agile fingers, have a kind of beauty like clouds and flowing water.
Lin Ming also felt that, in terms of processing materials, Wang Yuhan did better than himself. After all, most Linming apprentices started learning the art of inscription from processing materials, but Lin Ming skipped this step directly.
With Wang Yuhan's assistance, Lin Ming's symbol drawing became more handy.
Operating the "Taiyi Soul Incantation", Lin Ming waved his hand, and a drop of deep blue liquid emitting intense cold air jumped onto his palm. Then, with the movement of Lin Ming's fingers, this drop instantly transformed into a string of dazzling rainbow light.
The first basic pattern was drawn, and Lin Ming waved his hand again. The second drop of liquid jumped onto the palm of his hand, and the bright rainbow light lit up once more. At this time, the crowd's irises still retained the residual glow left behind by the first basic pattern...
One after another brilliant symbol appeared in mid-air, continuously superimposing and accumulating, Lin Ming's failures were very few.
Wang Yuhan, who had already processed all the materials, stared at Lin Ming's every move with a pair of beautiful eyes that didn't blink, afraid of missing any detail.
However, in reality, it is impossible to learn the method of making a rune symbol just by observing. It involves complex soul force control, and even if the basic pattern is slightly deviated, it will have a thousand-mile effect. These are all things that can't be seen with the naked eye.
Wang Yuhan naturally understood these things, but through such observation, she could still gain some inspiration. Her grandfather Wang Xuanji's skills, she had learned everything that could be learned, and what couldn't be learned was that her martial arts cultivation wasn't enough, and even if she wanted to learn, there was no way. As for Lin Ming's Mingwen technique, it was completely different from the Tianyun country style, and apparently more mysterious and profound. She didn't expect Lin Ming to teach her hand in hand, but just observing from the side was also a rare opportunity.
Time passed bit by bit, and Wang Yuheng's eyes widened in shock as he watched. Lin Ming's movements seemed to require no thought at all, as if it were an instinctive action, done with a casual flick of the wrist. There was no sense of hesitation.
These actions seem simple, but outsiders watch the excitement, insiders watch the doorway. Wang Yuhan can clearly feel it. Lin Ming's casual brushstrokes contain seven or eight changes in soul force intensity. Such rapid changes, if not through long-term practice, would be impossible to achieve.
After a moment, dozens of glyphs floated in mid-air. The glyph that was formed by the accumulation of dozens of glyphs was considered to be a relatively complex glyph, and only high-level glyph masters or even glyph grandmasters could draw it, because the true yuan of low-level glyph masters was not enough to support it.
However, Wang Yuheng was not too surprised by this. Lin Ming's strength had already approached that of a Bone Forging Great Perfection warrior, and it was not unusual for him to have such dense True Essence.
Another moment passed, and the seventy or so talismans floating in front of Lin Ming had accumulated. At this time, Lin Ming's hands closed together, and all the talisman characters in the air flashed with light one after another before gradually collapsing. For a time, the Talisman Hall was as if it were filled with starlight, and finally all the talismans merged into one.
Lin Ming added another stroke, and the inscription transformed into a flame-like pattern that slowly drifted down onto the armor.
With a "whooshing" sound, flame-shaped inscriptions appeared on the chest of the armor, and at this moment, a stunning scene occurred. The armor slightly shook, with the flame-shaped inscriptions as the center, layer upon layer of blue light circles spread out like ripples, and the originally dark-colored battle armor actually changed to ice blue within these light circles!
"Huh?" Wang Xuan raised her eyebrows in surprise, could it actually change the color of the treasure?
Wang Xuanji widely read classics and knew that the classics recorded some inscriptions, because they had strong five-element attribute powers, when engraved on treasures, they could change the color of the treasure.
For example, the fire attribute rune can make the treasure present a fiery red color, the ice attribute rune can make the treasure present an icy blue color, and the gold attribute rune can make the treasure shine with golden light...
However, this was only recorded in the classics. The inscription technique of the Tianyun Kingdom had limited foundation, and although some inscriptions contained the power of the five elements, such as the Li Shui symbol and the Jin Zhong symbol, Wang Xuanji had never heard of anyone creating an inscription that could change the color of a treasure. Today, he saw it for the first time.
The middle-aged warrior looked at his armor and saw that it had turned blue, before he could figure out what was going on, Wang Xuanji had already taken a step forward excitedly, took the armor, infused her true yuan into it, and felt the effect of the inscription symbol.
With this trial, Wang Xuanji took a deep breath, and the effect of her True Essence gathering increased by 30%.
An increase of three tenths is nothing on ordinary artifacts, but this artifact was already slightly damaged. If the artifact were intact, it would have increased to at least three and a half tenths. Even if Wang Xueyi herself had personally inscribed the talismanic symbols on an intact artifact, the best result would be only four and two tenths.
Three tenths and six parts of the distance, four tenths and two parts, only six parts apart. Lin Ming was only 15 years old, but in terms of his attainments in inscription techniques, he was only this far away from himself who had been immersed in inscription techniques for nearly a hundred years?
This gave Wang Xuanji a deep sense of frustration.
Moreover, the inscription symbol drawn by Lin Ming will also transform into a protective membrane of icy air when Yuan passes through it, increasing the defensive power of his armor. Although the increase is not much, it is extremely rare for an inscription symbol to produce two effects. In the Inscription Technique school of Tianyun Country, there are no more than thirty inscription symbols with two effects, and each one is worth over 3,000 taels of gold!
A monstrous talent in the field of inscription, and also a martial arts prodigy who has grasped the essence of combat and possesses astonishing intuition. With so many halos concentrated on one person, even the heavens would be jealous!
Wang Xuanji threw the armor at the middle-aged martial artist and said, "Check it out."
The middle-aged martial artist poured the true yuan into the armor, and after a moment, a hint of surprise appeared on his face. As the master of the armor, he naturally knew the original situation of the armor clearly.
"Are you still satisfied?" asked Wang Xuanji casually.
"Satisfied! Satisfied!" The middle-aged martial artist nodded repeatedly, then looked at Lin Ming again, with a hint of respect in his eyes. However, the middle-aged martial artist was not a master of the ancient texts, and he didn't know much about the art of inscription. He only knew that this young man was extremely exceptional, but as for just how extraordinary, he didn't have a clear concept.
"Is this Wang Huichang's apprentice? Indeed, a great master produces outstanding students! Unbelievable! Unbelievable!"
"My disciple?" Wang Xuanji smiled self-deprecatingly. "I couldn't possibly teach a disciple as formidable as that."
"Director Wang is too modest, but little brother is indeed the most talented inscription master I've ever heard of." The middle-aged man was about to say a few more flattering words and get acquainted with Lin Ming. After all, knowing an inscription master with such great potential would be beneficial in the future. However, just then, Wang Xuanji said indifferently, "Do you have any other business? If not, you can leave now."
The middle-aged martial artist had a sentence stuck in his throat, so he could only smile awkwardly and say, "Then I won't disturb you, I'll come visit another day to thank you." The middle-aged martial artist left with an apologetic smile on his face.
At this time, Wang Xun's mood was not very good. He had invested all his heart and soul in Wang Yuhan, hoping to cultivate him into the most powerful inscription master in Tianyun Country in nearly a hundred years. However, he didn't know where Lin Ming came from, but it made Wang Xun feel extremely frustrated. To say nothing of Wang Yuhan, even if it were himself, he would probably be surpassed by this abnormal kid in just a few years.
Having studied epigraphy for most of her life, could it really be so inferior? Wang Xuanji couldn't help but think this way.
Lin Ming was not clear about Wang Xuan's idea, he took a short rest and prepared to solve the second problem. The second client was a young master of a wealthy family in his twenties or thirties. He had already witnessed Lin Ming's incredible inscription technique before, and when he saw Lin Ming beckoning him, he hurried over, stated his problem, and laid out a pile of materials.
Seeing these materials, Lin Ming's heart moved again. This guest was indeed a good match for him. With so many precious materials to practice with, his inscription skills would make rapid progress. It wouldn't take long before he could inscribe the Symbol of the Body.
................................
In the afternoon, Lin Ming had been solving various problems. To avoid interference factors, Lin Ming asked the Mingwen Master Association for a separate Mingwen room. After the materials were brought in, the door would be closed, leaving only Lin Ming and Wang Yuheng inside. Wang Yuheng was responsible for adjusting the materials, while Lin Ming began to draw the Mingwen symbol.
Drawing talismans consumes both spiritual energy and true yuan. Generally, low to mid-level talisman artists can only draw one or two talismans before exhausting themselves, while high-level talisman artists and grandmasters may be able to draw three or four at most.
Lin Ming had already gone through five rounds of drawing in this one afternoon, and now he was about to start the sixth!
This made Wang Yuhan's heart skip a beat, and even she, who was only in charge of material processing, had already exhausted some of her true yuan, while Lin Ming seemed like an tireless machine.
In fact, after each painting is completed, Lin Ming's consumption is also very severe. At this time, he will operate the "Taiyi Linghun Jue" to nourish the lost soul power and use the "Hunyuan Zhenyuan Jue" to supplement his true yuan.
