"But this is quite lucky. I thought I would have to start with refining essence, but I didn't expect to turn into qi so quickly!"
Su Feng smiled.
There are four major realms: refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, and refining emptiness into the Dao.
If we break it down further, there are eight realms: Refining Essence, Transforming Qi, Refining Qi, Transforming Spirit, Refining Spirit, Returning to Emptiness, Refining Emptiness, and Uniting with the Dao. Each realm has nine levels.
As for why the process of refining essence was skipped, it's actually quite simple.
According to the book, conditioning and nourishment involve practicing martial arts, eating certain foods to replenish what is needed, and taking special baths, etc.
Tianyan had previously helped him expel those impurities, which allowed him to skip the stage of refining essence and now successfully embark on his path of cultivation.
Once you reach the Qi Transformation stage, your primary focus becomes absorbing spiritual energy.
In the current environment, there are generally two paths: absorbing spiritual energy to improve cultivation, or improving cultivation through combat.
For example, he is only at the first level of Qi Transformation now, but the talismans he draws already have power and can mobilize spiritual energy on their own. As he grows stronger, he can even draw talismans in the void.
"Just thinking about it is so cool!"
Su Feng was slightly excited.
After becoming powerful, he encountered a vengeful ghost. Other Taoist priests and monks would have to put on airs, draw talismans, and chant scriptures, but he didn't need to do any of that. He simply drew a talisman in the air and pointed it out with one finger. The vengeful ghost was instantly annihilated, shocking all around.
"It's a pity, though. Even after it's been completed, there's still no content on refining the void and merging with the Dao. I guess there's still half left. The book my second uncle gave us only has a part on refining the spirit and returning to the void, which is still pretty good. We can't be too ambitious at the beginning!"
Su Feng stretched and asked Tian Yan to bring up his attribute panel.

"Only one hour left, perfect timing to go out for lunch!"
Su Feng smiled.
The Complete Collection of Maoshan Talismans was just as helpful to him as the Ghost Scripture and the Jade Emperor's Cultivation Method were before!
After the meal, Su Feng continued to absorb spiritual energy to enhance his strength.
[Didi, completion complete]
Suddenly a voice appeared, and Su Feng couldn't help but open his eyes to check the completed content.
"There were only a few dozen talismans before, but now there are hundreds? There are also various ways to draw and use talismans, and even combination talismans!"
Su Feng was very surprised, but at the same time, he felt a little impatient.
"Uncle Fu, Uncle Fu?"
Su Feng walked out of the room and shouted loudly.
"What's the matter, Master?"
Uncle Fu's voice came from the doorway.
"Uncle Fu, could you go outside and buy me some high-quality yellow paper, cinnabar, and chicken blood?" Su Feng said before going inside.
Looking at the closed door, Uncle Fu opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.
Actually, he wanted to suggest that Su Feng not be too obsessed with these things, and to go out more often and get to know pretty girls.
Ah, it's so good to be young!
Uncle Fu sighed, then took the silver dollars and left.
……
"Demon-suppressing talismans, corpse-suppressing talismans, raging fire talismans, immobilization talismans, Vajra talismans, illusion-dispelling talismans, evil-dispelling talismans, luck-changing talismans—there are just too many to count!"
Su Feng excitedly sketched in the air with his brush.
There are hundreds of symbols, corresponding to many different situations.
"I wonder how powerful it will be once the Huangting Scripture and Baopuzi techniques are complete, but now I can say that I have truly stepped into the world of cultivation!"
Su Feng sighed and put down his brush.
He had originally planned to ask Uncle Fu to look for something like a peach wood sword or to buy some lightning-struck wood, but then he thought that such good things were hard to come by and that it would be useless to ask Uncle Fu to do so, so he gave up on that idea.
Before long, Uncle Fu returned with a large bag of things.
"Young master, these are the things you requested, all of them are top-quality!"
Uncle Fu took everything out and placed it in the study.
"I understand. Also, if Zhu Dachang comes looking for me, remember to let me know!"
Su Feng looked at the yellow talismans and was already quite impatient.
Uncle Fu nodded, slowly left the study, sighed, and continued with his own business.
"Indeed, cultivation is the most time-consuming and expensive thing!"
Looking at the huge pile of stuff, which had cost him over two hundred dollars, Su Feng couldn't help but sigh.
But despite his admiration, once he bought something, he naturally had to use it. Su Feng used the new brush to apply chicken blood and cinnabar, and began to learn how to draw talismans.

Chapter Sixteen: Zhu Dachang's Secret Revealed – Yueying's Acting Skills, Like an Actress, Completely Deceive Everyone
They practiced for an unknown amount of time, and it was already getting dark. There were many discarded yellow papers on the ground, but only a dozen or so talismans had been drawn on the table!
[Data fusion 15%...]
Tianyan's notification sound rang out.
"That's really difficult!"
Su Feng sighed. He had practiced all afternoon and had only learned fifteen types of talismans.
Drawing talismans was more difficult than he had imagined. If even one detail was not correct, the yellow paper would easily become unusable. He needed to infuse his spiritual energy into the talisman to maintain its continuity.
In short, the size or style of the writing can vary, but the strokes and points that need attention must remain unchanged; otherwise, the symbol will be useless.
"It's not bad, though. I should be able to learn it all in a few days at most!"
Su Feng smiled, looked at the yellow talismans on the table, casually picked one up, and tossed it toward a stool next to him.
The yellow talisman was pasted onto the stool with a loud bang.
The stool burst into flames, and the fire seemed to be growing larger. Su Feng raised an eyebrow, poured a pot of tea over it, and extinguished the flames.
"That's quite powerful!"
Su Feng put down the teapot with satisfaction and leisurely walked out of the room to have dinner.
……
On the second floor of the Ma family's house, Yueyang poured a packet of powder into the tea.
The two were discussing how to seize control of the Ma family's assets.
"When will they be able to give birth? That's over 100,000!"
Yueying spoke up rather impatiently.
"Don't worry, this is labor-inducing powder. Normally, a woman needs to be pregnant for nine months to give birth to a healthy child, but being pregnant half a month early won't cause any problems. At that time, we can not only get the Ma family's assets, but also this 100,000 silver dollars!"
Yueyang stood up, smiling, and handed the tea to Yueying.
"I really want to give birth to this baby soon, so that the 100,000 silver dollars, these houses, and all that land will be ours!"
Yueying downed the tea in one gulp and gave a cold laugh.
Time flew by, and it was now the third and final day.
There were a lot of people at the Ma Family Ancestral Hall, all there to eat at the funeral feast and pay their respects. It was packed from noon until evening!
"Hey, Zhu Dachang!"
The town mayor grabbed Zhu Dachang, who was looking around!
"What's wrong, Mayor?" Zhu Dachang was a little confused.
"What's wrong? Didn't you say Su Feng was coming? Everyone's almost finished eating!" the town mayor asked, somewhat puzzled.
"He'll be here soon, Mayor. Don't worry, Young Master Su is a man of his word, he'll definitely come!"
Zhu Dachang hurriedly explained, but he was also anxious!
The town mayor reluctantly released Zhu Dachang and turned to look at the brother and sister who were chatting with someone.
Meanwhile, Su Feng took the silver needles out of the storage room.
"Kid, don't say I didn't help you, but there's a risk involved today!"
Su Feng looked at the silver needles and said slowly.
Ma Linxiang emerged from the silver needles, looking helpless, and said, "Su Feng, you're a cultured man and a man of honor. You absolutely have to help me this time. Zhu Dachang is a good man, but he doesn't have the ability!"
Su Feng hesitated slightly.
Seeing this, Ma Linxiang quickly said, "How about this, Su Feng? If you help me, you can take half of my family's assets, how about it?"
