In a specially prepared talisman crafting room, Shen Wang’s talisman brush danced across the paper, swiftly forming a special P character, and instantly, a yellow light flashed, activating the Talisman.
[Talismanic Magic 1]
At Shen Wang’s current level, crafting a Lower Grade Exorcism Talisman was already a guaranteed success.
However, it took him crafting three in one go to gain a point of experience, indicating that the experience gained from Lower Grade Talismans was very low, only about one-third of a Middle Grade’s.
Fortunately, crafting this Talisman was easy and required little of his energy.
As for the lack of experience, now the Top-grade Treasure Talisman could provide three points of experience, more than compensating for it.
He placed the newly crafted Exorcism Talismans at the doors of the rooms where Chuni and Hong Ping were staying, and also stuck one by the side of his daughter’s bed.
Although the power of this Talisman was average, it could to so extent repel evil energy and had so effect on low-level evil spirits.
Having finished these tasks, he did not craft any more Talismans but instead began to adjust and restore his Spiritual Power.
Nightfall ca quickly. He had dinner before it got dark, and after finishing, Chuni hurried back to her room, clutching her son tightly as she skillfully slipped under the covers.
Rustle, rustle, rustle!
After nightfall, familiar wind noises arose outside, accompanied by faint ghostly cries and howls.
Even though she heard them every night, Chuni still trembled with fear, worried that the monsters outside would break in and devour her and her son.
The Exorcism Talisman just pasted at her door glowed, as did the mysterious runes on the wall.
Scratch, scratch.
A sharp sound of sothing scraping against the wall echoed from outside, especially jarring.
In the bedroom, Shen Wang held a Silver Radiance Talisman as he walked toward the source of the scratching sound.
"Husband, let it be. The dirty things outside can’t co in anyway."
Jia’Er called out, not wanting Shen Wang to take risks.
"Right, endure for now. Once we find sothing to eradicate the evil, we can deal with it then!"
Paper Kite was also inside, showing a worried expression.
"I have to see what exactly it is."
Shen Wang waved his hand, "You two stay here and protect Xue’Er."
After saying that, Shen Wang strode toward the northern wall, where a section of runes was now distinctly brighter.
Behind the wall, sothing was clawing, accompanied by beast-like roars.
Shen Wang perford a hand seal, with a puff, a Fireball condensed at his fingertip, quickly illuminating the surroundings.
At the sa ti, he took out a Silver Radiance Talisman and pasted it on himself, forming a circle of protection, the area around him growing even brighter.
In his other hand, he held a backup Fireball Talisman, ready as he approached the source of the noise.
Through the wall, the scratching sound beca clearer, and Shen Wang could sense a cold aura standing outside the barrier.
"Hmph!"
He leaped onto the wall with ease, his Fireball in hand thrown directly at the thing outside the barrier.
Boom!
A shadow was struck by the Fireball, exploding with a thunderous sound, emitting a wail as parts of its body were blown apart, revealing a monster covered in green fur.
In the flas, Shen Wang clearly saw this green-furred monster. Even with half its body charred black by the explosion, it struggled within the fire, its green-faced fangs and long black claws still visible.
"Green-haired Zombie!"
Shen Wang frowned; zombies were one of the evil spirits, categorized by strength into Green, Iron, Copper, and Flying Zombies. This green one was rely a freshly turned zombie, a low-grade specin, unable to pass through this wall even without the protection of the Runes.
"Such low-grade creatures dare co here? Must be driven by that thing."
He looked into the darkness, his heart sinking slightly.
Indeed, that creature had intelligence, now aware to use physical entities like zombies to wear down and damage his defenses.
Shen Wang’s expression shifted continuously.
Under the Fireball’s power, the Green-haired Zombie didn’t last long before ceasing its struggles, burning away entirely.
[You used the Fireball Technique to vanquish a Zombie to protect your descendants, Experience 2]
Unsurprisingly, his actions were rewarded, enhancing his Fire Attribute Spell Insights, making his Fireball Technique even more effortless to perform.
"Not bad at all."
Shen Wang observed as three more zombies glowing green reerged from the darkness, hopping and lunging toward him standing on the wall.
"Indeed, there are more!"
Shen Wang remained calm, forming hand seals without haste.
The runes on the wall detected the evil spirits approaching, emitting a circle of Golden Light, shining on the zombies like blazing flas, setting their green fur ablaze as if scorched by intense flas.
The zombies halted in pain, falling to the foot of the wall.
Shen Wang flung the Fireball he had successfully condensed at his fingertips at one zombie, engulfing the others in its blast, igniting them together.
Just as he deed these low-level zombies insignificant, a myriad of green, glowing eyes appeared in the night, a dozen more zombies wobbling forth.
"..."
Shen Wang’s pupils contracted, hastily forming hand seals with both hands, concentrating all his efforts as Fireballs quickly took shape and were hurled into the night sky to explode.
Only the first two zombies were blasted away, while the ones behind continued moving forward.
[Fireball Technique 1]
Among the three zombies at the front, one perished, and Shen Wang gained experience once more.
A pack of zombies screeched, suddenly separating to charge ahead, not standing foolishly together offering Shen Wang the chance.
At this point, Shen Wang no longer had the luxury of savoring the benefits of his experience gains. The Spiritual Power within his Dantian surged forth, condensing Fireballs as swiftly as possible, casting them at the zombies.
Boom!
A Fireball exploded on one zombie, igniting it.
Fortunately, the ancestral ho shielded against these zombies, allowing Shen Wang to concentrate wholly on condensing Fireballs without worrying about his safety.
Three, five, ten... Ten consecutive rounds of the Fireball Technique were cast, rapidly depleting Shen Wang’s Spiritual Power from his Dantian, significantly draining his Fire Attribute Spiritual Power.
[Fire Attribute Spell Insights 1]
The ten Fireball Techniques brought Shen Wang a general spell insight gain, not limited to the Fireball Technique alone.
Seeing seven zombies still attacking the runes etched on the wall in frenzy, Shen Wang knew he couldn’t let them continue their destruction.
After all, the Runes were the most basic barrier of the ancestral ho, having weathered the long years, now sowhat worn. Even though the zombies’ destructive power was limited, over ti, it could not withstand the wear and tear.
"I should have bought so Qi Recovery Pills."
Shen Wang gritted his teeth, not expecting the ancestral ho to be assaulted by zombies.
Crack.
A piece of plaster was scraped off by a zombie, and Shen Wang hastily activated the last Fireball Talisman to eliminate it, then mobilized the Dantian Wood Attribute Spiritual Power to continue casting the Fireball Technique.
The power of the Fireball Technique ford by the Wood Attribute Spiritual Power was sowhat weakened. Shen Wang pushed through fatigue, casting the Six Paths Fireball Technique to decimate the remaining zombies.
Having done all this, Shen Wang swiftly retreated from the wall, daring not to continue further.
"Heh heh heh!"
A sinister laugh echoed in the darkness, finally calming down. No more zombies appeared, nor did any evil spirits flit about in the sky.
Shen Wang knew he had been calculated against, that fellow deliberately lured him to attack the zombies to gauge his limits.
"Sixteen... sixteenth tis using the Fireball Technique, that’s my limit."
Shen Wang contemplated silently, "But that’s just for today!"
