After Instructor Fang announced the end of class, some disciples took out their lunch boxes, and some went to the Taoist canteen in twos and threes.
Zhou Ling looked at Instructor Fang who was cleaning the table, walked over, and asked respectfully, "Instructor, I want to practice the seal, I don't know which seal to choose?"
Instructor Fang saw that it was Zhou Ling, felt the change in Zhou Ling's aura, a faint smile appeared on his face, and nodded with satisfaction, "Not bad, you have entered the third level of Qi training!"
"Practice well, there is a great chance to become an inner disciple in the future!"
After praising a few words, Instructor Fang said,
"You have the five elements spiritual root, and you mainly practice fire attribute skills. It is best to choose the basic five elements seal, which is a relatively standardized and universal seal."
"It is suitable for laying the foundation, which is just right for you."
"Your current level of refining is outstanding among your peers in the Taoist Academy."
"If you can't understand it for a while, practice a few more times, or ask me!"
Zhou Ling nodded and responded respectfully.
With the talents of [More courage after setbacks] and [Primary analysis], even if there are inscriptions that he doesn't understand, he can figure it out by practicing a few more times.
Fang Lan called another assistant and gave him a few instructions, and the latter left.
Then Fang Lan reminded with a smile, "The consumption of drawing inscriptions is much greater than that of inscriptions."
"Not only does it require mana, but it also requires a high level of inscription pens, spiritual paper, and spiritual ink, so you must be mentally prepared for this investment and don't be anxious."
"The current situation is still to ensure that in the next two years, in terms of cultivation, you can enter the middle stage of Qi training."
"This is the only way to ensure that you can continue to practice in the Taoist Academy."
In the next two years, he will reach the fourth level of Qi training and pass the Taoist Academy's diversion test.
Zhou Ling is still very confident. Although his qualifications and resources are not as good as those of the children of the aristocratic families, he works hard and has the blessing of talent.
The chance should be great.
At this time, the young assistant came back again, holding a jade plate in his hand, with a jade slip placed in it.
"This is the Five Elements Basic Inscription. It contains thirty-six basic inscriptions and drawing points involving the Five Elements. They are basically first-level low-grade inscriptions."
"In addition, there are five first-level middle-grade inscriptions at the back. It's too early for you to draw them at your current level. Don't try it easily."
"Disciple understands!" Zhou Ling replied seriously.
Instructor Fang nodded with satisfaction. He usually doesn't talk much, but he has seen Zhou Ling's performance. He
is a casual cultivator with no outstanding talent, but with his own efforts, his cultivation has not fallen behind, and his weapon refining skills are quite outstanding.
He is very appreciative of him. He
is obviously more interested in teaching Zhou Ling.
"Inscriptions are all made up of basic inscription patterns connected in a specific arrangement. A basic inscription consists of six inscription patterns."
"The greater the difficulty of the inscription, the more and more complex the inscription patterns are." "
The distribution and arrangement of the various inscription patterns, the greater the difficulty of connecting and combining them."
"But no matter how things change, they remain essentially the same. As long as the foundation is laid, the rest will be easy!"
·······.
Instructor Fang handed the jade slip to Zhou Ling, and introduced some information about the practice of seals.
Zhou Ling listened carefully.
Finally, Instructor Fang reminded him, "If you want to become a true weapon refiner, you need to spend a lot of effort and resources, and you must have perseverance and patience!"
After a pause, he said,
"At the same time, you can't be too ambitious and blindly practice some seals that are beyond your ability."
"Disciple understands!" Zhou Ling said respectfully.
Of course, in the end, he handed over thirty spirit stones in exchange for this five-element basic seal.
Although the sect's fee seems a bit too black, this kind of basic seal may cost more than this price on the market.
And the key point is that the sect belongs to the tutorial range, and there will be some difficult introductions and annotations. It will be much easier for people to comprehend.
It is not comparable to those ordinary techniques outside.
······.
After class in the afternoon, Zhou Ling went to the market on West Street and went straight to the stall of Old Man Zhao.
The spirit stones that he had saved for several months were gone in an instant, and he was back to the days before liberation.
He was also anxious to earn some spirit stones.
Seeing Zhou Ling with sweat all over his forehead, Old Man Zhao greeted him with a smile, "Brother Ling, I haven't seen you for several days!"
During this period, Zhou Ling's repairs made him earn a lot more.
Zhou Ling reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead, looked at the objects on the stall, and asked, "Are there any first-grade inferior or defective magic tools?"
"First-grade inferior magic tools? Can you repair them?" Old Man Zhao glanced at Zhou Ling in confusion.
"Don't worry! Do you have any?" Zhou Ling said.
"Yes, there are." Old Man Zhao bent down, rummaged through the sack beside him, and then carefully took out a somewhat old three-legged furnace.
"This is a first-grade, low-grade fire furnace. I've had it for a few years, and I don't know what's broken."
"If you can repair it, I'll give you five low-grade spirit stones!"
"Five low-grade spirit stones! Do you think I'm a beggar?" Zhou Ling glared at him.
Although he said this, he still reached out to take the furnace.
A first-grade, low-grade furnace, the current market price is at least 20 to 30 low-grade spirit stones.
Even if it is a defective product, as long as it is repaired and can be used normally, it will cost more than 10 to 20 low-grade spirit stones.
Zhou Ling carefully observed the fire furnace and found that there were inscriptions on its inner wall, two of which he had never seen before.
[You are observing the fire-condensing inscription, elementary insight +1, fire-condensing inscription proficiency +1]
Under [elementary insight], he found that among the six inscriptions in the inscription of the furnace, only one was damaged, and the situation did not seem to be very serious.
Although he found the problem, Zhou Ling was still a little hesitant. If he couldn't repair it, and accidentally destroyed the furnace, he would have to pay a lot of spirit stones.
After all, he had just started to work with Mingyin.
"Let's take a chance. I can see the problem. I'll go back and analyze it carefully.
If I'm more careful, I won't make mistakes!" Zhou Ling thought to himself. Even if he couldn't repair it, as long as he was careful enough, it shouldn't cause the furnace to be damaged.
It's unrealistic to want to earn more spirit stones without any risk.
"Ten low-grade spirit stones!" Zhou Ling put down the furnace and smiled harmlessly.
"Ten, how can you double the price like this!" Old man Zhao rolled his eyes at him.
But then he thought to himself, "If it can really be repaired, this furnace can be sold for at least a dozen spirit stones, which is better than leaving it in a sack and gathering dust!"
"Are you sure you can really repair it?" Old man Zhao asked again worriedly.
"I'll give it a try!" Zhou Ling said.
"You have to be careful, this furnace is very valuable!" Old man Zhao carefully wrapped the furnace in a sack and told Zhou Ling with a serious face.
"Also, you have to pay for the materials to repair the furnace!" Zhou Ling continued.
"You?" Old man Zhao blew his goat beard and was speechless for a moment.
