Chapter 1712: Grand Accomplishment of Talisman Dao
e.Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!At present, there are not many masters within the Demon Suppression Division. Now, either masters need to be transferred from other regio...With the last stroke falling.
The talisman, which was originally as white as paper, suddenly emitted a mysterious golden light, overflowing with an extremely terrifying Dao rhyme.
Even a cultivator's gaze falling upon it would be able to feel that terrifying power.
Got it!
Shen Changqing's face lit up.
After failing countless times, he finally succeeded once.
“An ordinary third-rank middle-grade Grandmaster talisman, equivalent to the full force of a Divine Lord at the fourth level. Although its quality is in the lower tier among ordinary third-rank middle-grade Grandmaster talismans, it's still considered part of the third-rank middle-grade Grandmaster talisman category.”
Shen Changqing clutched the talisman, feeling the power it contained. He was very satisfied with this.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
The successful drawing of the Sanjie Zhongpin Zongshi talisman indicates that he has reached the level of a three-tiered middle-grade talisman master.
According to Qing Yi, even in ancient times, a Tier 3 Middle Grade Fu Dao Grandmaster was still considered to be of no small stature.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
Moreover.
Now is not ancient times.
The status of a Third-Rank, Middle Grade Rune Dao Master is only higher.
As for the number of Fu Dao masters in the Netherworld, Shen Changqing had no way of knowing. However, within the myriad heavens, he was certain that Fu Dao masters were extremely rare and scarce.
To be precise.
Many side-door methods are quite rare.
Alchemical refining!
Refining tools!
Talismans!
Battle Formation!
And many other auxiliary methods, since the ancient cataclysm, have led to the loss of transmission. Coupled with the rise of Shintoism, becoming the strongest path in the world, it has further compressed the survival space of these auxiliary methods.
>
The decline of the heavens is largely due to the change in celestial rules, but the rise of Shinto and the decline of all other paths are also major contributing factors.
Take a deep breath.
Shen Changqing didn't think too much about it, but continued to study the Xuanling Fu Jing.
Although he has entered the ranks of a Third-Rank Middle Grade Fu Dao Master, he is just beginning at this level. Among masters of the same rank, he is almost at the bottom.
As for the success rate alone, it's extremely limited, not to mention the quality of the talismans.
So.
This content is empty! Let me know if you have something else you'd like translated.
Then, Shen Changqing continued to draw the same talismans.
Failure!
Failure!
> Failure!
Success!
Failure!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Failure!
Although Shen Changqing had the experience of successfully drawing once, his success rate afterwards was still shockingly low.
On average, his success rate is almost only one percent.
That is to say.
It takes 100 sheets of talisman paper for Shen Changqing to successfully cast a spell once.
This success rate.
He was speechless.
"If the third-rank talisman master had a ranking, I'd probably be at the bottom!"
Shen Changqing shook his head slightly, and couldn't help but mock himself.
But.
That's how it is.
But Shen Changqing also understood that in more than four years, being able to successfully draw three-rank middle-grade master talismans was already quite difficult.
A low success rate is also quite normal.
If an ordinary cultivator were to spend so lavishly, they would have long since been impoverished. But Shen Changqing's family wealth was abundant, and many materials had limited use for him himself.
Now that we have it all, to refine it into talisman paper would be nothing short of perfect.
So.
As for these losses, Shen Changqing didn't feel any pain at all.
After consuming tens of thousands of talismans, Shen Changqing's success rate finally increased from one percent to two percent.
A seemingly only one percent improvement, but the success rate has doubled.
On the other side.
Qingyi watched Shen Changqing lavishly spend money, and she also secretly shook her head.
That is to say, only someone of your esteemed status could possess such profound depth. If other cultivators were to attempt to achieve this level of understanding, it would be virtually impossible.
Even with such a foundation, I wouldn't squander it like this!
To increase the success rate of talisman drawing, there are actually two methods.
The first is to keep practicing drawing, regardless of the cost, and forcibly increasing the success rate.
Like what Shen Changqing is doing now, it tends towards the first kind.
Second.
Here is the translation of the provided text:
The most important thing is to focus on understanding heaven and earth, and comprehending the legacy while practicing talisman drawing. Repeatedly analyze the reasons for your previous failures and constantly adjust your state to increase your chances of success.
The advantage of doing this is very obvious, that is, it can save resources.
But the drawback is also equally obvious, which is that it takes relatively longer time to polish.
However.
It's still the same thing.
Even if someone possessed the same foundation and courage, it would be absolutely impossible to achieve Shen Changqing's level in over four years.
Other cultivators followed suit, only to end up losing everything they had.
But Shen Changqing was different.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The opponent's talent in talismanry can only be described as monstrous. Although this approach consumes a lot of resources, the benefits gained are tangible and real.
For three years.
Shen Changqing was like being possessed, drawing talismans day and night. The resources on his body were dwindling at a visible rate, but the benefits were also extremely obvious.
First is the probability of success.
Over three years of continuous accumulation, he has increased the probability of success to 20%.
That is to say.
Every time Shen Changqing drew five talismans, he could successfully complete one.
Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Then.
Those were all talismans drawn by Shen Changqing, and they weren't all ordinary-grade. Among them were some fine quality ones, even those of perfect quality.
Of course.
>
Among all successful talismans, the majority are still of ordinary quality.
Like fine-quality talismans, roughly one out of twenty successful ordinary-quality talismans can be produced. As for perfect-quality talismans, it takes about a hundred to produce one.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
"Ordinary quality talismans have about a 20% success rate, fine quality ones are 1%, and perfect quality is only 0.2%."
Although the probability of achieving perfect quality is extremely low, with my current Daoist cultivation level, I should be considered top-tier even among third-rank mid-grade Talisman Masters.
Even the Xuanling Divine Monarch, who was on par with leaving behind the Xuanling Fuling Jing, was not much different!
Shen Changqing looked at the thick pile of talismans in front of him, all completely drawn successfully, and there was a sense of pride in his heart.
Less than eight years.
From being unable to draw even basic talismans to now being a top-tier talisman master at the peak of the third rank,
Such a transformation, if it were to spread, would be enough to shock the world.
According to the records in the Xuanling Fu Jing, even Xuanling Shenjun himself, with a success rate of perfect quality, was only about 0.1 to 0.2 percent at most.
In a sense.
Now, Shen Changqing's mastery in talismanry has even surpassed that of the Xuanling God Monarch.
And.
As long as he keeps practicing, the probability of success will only be higher.
One day.
Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!
Even if one were to perfectly refine a third-rank mid-grade master craftsman like Lu, it would be no problem at all.
But——
Shen Changqing did not continue to draw talismans.
The reason is very simple.
He now has nothing left to refine talisman paper.
To refine talismans, one needs the pelts of ferocious beasts. And to bear a third-rank master's talisman, one requires the pelt of a divine beast.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Otherwise.
The talisman paper couldn't withstand the power of the talisman, resulting in a 100% failure rate.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Even though Shen Changqing had killed countless powerful beings from various races and plundered a large number of storage rings, the beast hides were ultimately not very numerous.
After years of continuous digestion, it is normal for the announcement to be exhausted.
"For years, I have immersed myself in the art of drawing talismans. This has undoubtedly propelled me closer to achieving unity. Without unforeseen circumstances, given my current state, I am certain to succeed within the next five hundred years."
But if one could obtain other talismans' transmissions and more fragments of the Great Dao's rules, this time period could be shortened considerably!
Shen Changqing pondered silently.
Over the past few years, he has been deeply engrossed in the study of talismans. This has given him a deeper understanding of the convergence of various cosmic principles.
It's a pity.
This level of comprehension is insufficient for him to successfully enter the realm of great power.
The transformation from Dao Fruit to Great Power is countless times more difficult than any previous realm breakthrough.
Even with his current talent, he wouldn't be able to break through successfully in a short amount of time.
As for other people.
Waiting for hundreds of years is not a problem.
It's still the same thing.
Divine Monarch Dao fruit experts have long lifespans, often measured in millions of years. A mere few hundred years is just a nap for them.
But.
Shen Changqing is different.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Now that the great tribulation has arrived, no one knows when the situation will change again. Moreover, he is in the underworld and has offended many powerful people.
Peace has lasted for over two hundred years now, but that doesn't mean it will continue forever.
If he were truly to become complacent and relaxed at this point, when a great tribulation came upon him, he would be doomed.
As for a sense of crisis, Shen Changqing had always taken it seriously.
So.
>
If there was a way to quickly improve his skills, Shen Changqing would definitely not miss it.
Right now, the only two paths available for him to quickly break through to become a powerful being are:
First.
Gather other fragments of the Great Dao rules, in order to comprehend others' Great Daos and help oneself hasten the steps towards the unification of all paths.
>
Second.
It means searching for a deeper Daoist inheritance and a large amount of materials for drawing talismans. When the talisman is drawn, Shen Changqing himself is also in a state of realizing the Dao.
>
"The fragments of the Great Dao Rules, now at least require the level of a Divine Emperor to have some effect on me. Other fragments of the Dao Rules at the Divine Lord level are negligible, to say nothing of having no effect at all."
However, the God Emperor was a top-tier powerhouse throughout the Netherworld. It would definitely not be easy to obtain the Dao Rules of such a powerful being.
>
This leaves only the second option, then!
>
Shen Changqing muttered to himself.
The easiest way to obtain fragments of the Great Dao rules is to slay powerful beings. When a God Emperor falls, the Great Dao crumbles, and fragments of its rules naturally scatter.
The mighty Divine Emperor was a figure of immense power and respect, practically a sovereign ruler. If he were to run amok in the Netherworld, slaughtering indiscriminately, Shen Changqing had no doubt that Divine Sovereigns would arrive at his doorstep within half a day.
Although the Netherworld and the dark forces currently have an agreement, forbidding the Divine Lord from directly intervening, this agreement binds both the dark forces and the Netherworld.
While Shen Changqing himself, didn't seem to belong to either faction.
After all, the Black Demon God is considered a member of the Underworld forces, while the Four Imperial Dynasties are part of the Dark forces.
Strictly speaking.
He had offended both sides.
That's it.
Both sides' deities, I fear, will not truly abide by the Heavenly Contract.
To step back a bit.
Even if both camps' Divine Venerables were affected by the Heavenly Dao Contract, what could Shen Changqing do if a Divine Venerable chose to break it
After all, the price of transgression is only to be met with retribution. It won't truly bring about the downfall of a Divine Sovereign.

If a truly powerful deity were to become enraged and take matters into their own hands, regardless of the cost, then things would become very troublesome.
So, no matter how you look at it, Shen Changqing doesn't want to be too high-profile right now.
"Perhaps this old ancestor of Hongling should move around a bit!" into the Taixu Realm, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him the first.”"That person from Tianzong who could suppress him must have extraordinary strength!"Then, the Heavenly Thunder Saint Master...
