Talisman Reincarnation - All My Clones Are Dao Ancestors-Chapter 96: Instructions and sudden sense

Fu Xian led Ye Long around the courtyard, finally taking him to the library pavilion.

"This will be where we store all books, scrolls and other things containing our lineage’s inheritance."

Looking around, the furniture was very basic. Everything was of the second grade, which was fine for his standards. If he wanted to upgrade things, he would have to go on a shopping spree another day.

But considering his current situation, he wasn’t too inclined to do so now.

After showing Ye Long where he would stay, he took him out to the pond outside the inheritance garden.

"Here you can practice your spells. In the depths of this pond there is a second-grade spiritual spring, while the water on the surface is just spirited water.

How far have you gotten with the Water Control spell?"

"Master, after using it so much, I am about to reach the Minor Accomplishment stage!"

"That’s good. After you do so, don’t be quick to rush to the next spell. As a ’control’ spell, the Water Control Spell is among the core spells for all water spells. You should try to reach Major Accomplishment or even Perfection."

"The Perfection stage? Master, when did you move away from the Water Control Spell?" Ye Long was curious when he heard this. Even his own father had only told him to reach the Major Accomplishment stage for important spells, going further wasn’t necessary.

"Move away? Hmm... after reaching the Minor Accomplishment stage, I had to learn spells to draw talismans to afford my own cultivation. But even then, I never stopped cultivating it.

At the peak of Qi Refining, I had already progressed far into the Perfection stage.

Unfortunately, to reach the Great Perfection stage, one would have to awaken a water-type spiritual inspiration at the Qi Refining stage.

This is the area of Spell Masters. Even if you get a spiritual inspiration later, you can’t reach the next stage. This is a hidden law of Heaven. It doesn’t restrict us, but without a deep connection, it would be difficult for us to reach the Great Perfection stage.

You can, of course, still force it, but the work you would put in would be wasted.

Don’t worry about it.

Such a thing also happens in drawing talismans. Without a talisman spiritual inspiration at the Qi Refining stage, it would be impossible for you to draw Advanced Talismans... well that’s how those wannabe talisman drawers call it. For us, the simple talismans are Basic Talismans and the talismans we draw normally are just Talismans."

Ye Long listened with great attention and focus, and then at the end he returned to the previous topic, "Master, is it possible for me to awaken a second spiritual inspiration at the current stage?"

"Sure, why not? I don’t see an issue with that. You can even get a third inspiration!

The key to having so many is that it’s difficult to advance further if you have several.

But with my own powers and your talent, I can ensure that you can cultivate three inspirations.

Let’s see, which three inspirations would be good?

The talisman I gave you, the Inheritance Talisman I gave you last time carried the Dao of Talismans and also a bit of the Dao of Fengshui, which means you can practice both of them.

As for the third? Just wait and see, there is enough time to grow. You don’t need to focus on that right now."

Fu Xian wanted to offer the best to his first disciple. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Even he himself only had a single inspiration at the first stage!

Then again, looking at his clones through the invisible screen in front of him, he was sure that he could rise stronger without several Innate Inspirations.

Fu Xian sent Ye Long to learn the spell and returned to his first courtyard. Using the formation plate he had held for a long time, he pushed the formation to close the whole courtyard off. Since he wasn’t going to return, it would be better to just close it off and use it later.

Back at his current courtyard, he once more went to the main pavilion.

Here, he called forth the new formation plate –

Instantly, a formation plate flew to him. It looked different than the previous one. It was a depiction of his whole courtyard – the walls, paths, four outer pavilions and the main pavilion.

With a simple move, he could even change the spiritual power and properties across the whole courtyard!

Satisfied with it, he sat down and started refining it.

...

While Fu Xian was refining the plate, Mu Yan had already sent his two children away.

Everything took time, nothing was quick and could be done right away.

He even felt that compared to before, every step now felt like a thousand pounds of weight. Even a small choice might create ripples that spread far and wide.

During the day, he suddenly had an idea to get assigned to a special place. It was a feeling of opportunity, as if that place would be where his future led him.

"The Royal Office Assignment is under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Office, found only in the Imperial and Royal Capitals.

I hope they haven’t decided on our assignment just yet!"

Mu Yan walked out of the Royal Library and headed to another building.

Fortunately, every important building in the capital was close to the Eunuch Palaces. Whether the palaces were built around these places or whether the places were built around the palaces, he didn’t know.

In a short time, he arrived in front of a majestic building –

It was extremely large and had five stories. Left and right were towers like rising dragons.

From his position, he could even see that the building stretched far into the back.

Unlike the previous buildings he visited, which seemed to have a kinder appearance, this one was like a huge bureaucratic government office!

Entering it, he instantly saw rows upon rows of receptions.

He walked up to one of them, waiting in line behind a few others.

Here, rank seemed to have lost all meaning. Royals, nobles, scholars and generals all lined up to get what they wanted.
