Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?! - Chapter 277
Chapter 277: Chapter 229 Unbeatable Jiang Cheng_2
“`
Why is he so composed?
Does he have some odd Talisman like the Reverse Direction Relaxation Talisman?
I mustn’t take him lightly!
Liang Lu stared intently at Jiang Cheng, trying to see what trick he was preparing to use next.
Jiang Cheng indeed did not disappoint Liang Lu; faced with the myriad blades of Spiritual Power, he slowly took out a Talisman. Judging by the material of the Talisman, it was a Reusable Type, not a single-use one like the Reverse Direction Relaxation Talisman.
Jiang Cheng channeled his Spiritual Power into the Reusable Type Talisman, and then, right in front of Liang Lu, he tossed it onto the ground.
Liang Lu pushed forward with one palm, saying, “Eight-Sided Linglong Wall.”
A jade-colored light screen unfolded from the center of Liang Lu’s palm, quickly expanding into a greenish light screen.
This light screen was clearly a defensive spell in nature.
However, to Liang Lu’s surprise, after Jiang Cheng threw the Reusable Type Talisman on the ground, nothing happened.
Her light screen was not attacked by anything.
No!
It wasn’t that nothing happened!
Liang Lu’s eyes widened as she discovered that her recently cast “Six Harmonies Sword Meteor” was starting to crumble!
Above Jiang Cheng’s head, the dense blades of Spiritual Power began to shatter, each fragment falling to the ground and vanishing. The originally imposing and powerful attack spell had not even exhibited its might before it was completely dissolved by Jiang Cheng with some unknown move!
What exactly happened?
On the other side, Jiang Cheng said mockingly, “Liang, don’t be scared. I didn’t use an attack Talisman.”
Liang Lu retracted the Eight-Sided Linglong Wall, her slender fingers gripping the wooden sword.
“What move did you use just now? How could it dissolve my Six Harmonies Sword Meteor?”
Jiang Cheng said, “If you concede, Liang, I’ll tell you.”
“Dream on!”
Liang Lu did not want to concede.
She had already lost to Lin Yao too many times; she couldn’t keep losing to Jiang Cheng as well!
At least Lin Yao had a strong will and dared to fight fiercely; her losses to Lin Yao were not unjust. But what about Jiang Cheng?
Jiang Cheng was only at the seventh level of Qi cultivation, a full two levels below her.
If she couldn’t even beat Jiang Cheng, then she might as well give up.
Liang Lu held the wooden sword, employing her movement technique, her entire being transforming into a pleasing arc as she circled around to approach Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng was caught by the Earthen Prison Skill, so as long as she didn’t get too close, it should be very safe.
“Explosive Flame Skill!”
Liang Lu pointed her sword tip at Jiang Cheng, using a simple yet practical attack spell.
Some spells required incantations and gestures to coordinate, some needed the right time and place, but others, like the Explosive Flame Skill, could be unleashed just with the wooden sword.
Many traditional cultivators would intersperse spells with swordsmanship and movement techniques to achieve the goal of continuous attacks and constant pressure on the opponent.
Liang Lu was very proficient in connecting these small skills, but today, her Explosive Flame Skill was like a torch in the rain, leaving behind only a wisp of smoke.
“Explosive Flame Skill!”
Liang Lu tried to initiate the spell again, but still, there was only smoke.
Why had her spell failed?
Before Liang Lu had time to ponder, Jiang Cheng on the other side slowly took out a second Talisman.
Liang Lu watched helplessly as Jiang Cheng activated the Talisman, its effect turning into a ray of light that shot into her body.
Such speed!
Impossible to dodge!
But it shouldn’t be a big issue; attack Talismans are usually fast, but their attack power isn’t typically high.
Liang Lu stomped her foot, ready to abandon the spell and directly attack with the wooden sword, but at this moment, a sharp pain suddenly shot through the sole of her foot!
“Ah!”
Liang Lu’s long legs trembled and cold sweat appeared on her forehead; she couldn’t understand what move Jiang Cheng had used to directly attack the soles of her feet.
Fighting with Jiang Cheng was completely different from fighting with Lin Yao.
With Jiang Cheng, Liang Lu couldn’t even understand his moves.
The entire duel had given her the illusion that she had cultivated falsely.
Jiang Cheng broke free from the Earthen Prison Skill, squatted down, and looked at Liang Lu, “Liang, we don’t have to keep fighting, do we?”
Liang Lu frowned, “Why stop? I haven’t lost yet.”
“Try to grip your sword tightly,” said Jiang Cheng.
Liang Lu exerted strength in her hand, and then she also felt a severe pain in her palm.
“You! What on earth is going on?”
“`
“It’s still one of my inventions, the Perception Transmission Talisman. It can amplify your sense of pain, making the mere act of stepping on the ground or gripping a sword feel unbearably painful. It can also directly amplify your sense of hearing, but doing that would knock you out on the spot because of my loud voice, so I chose to amplify the sense of pain.”
“I can still use spells!” Liang Lu protested.
Jiang Cheng smiled and asked, “Can you really?”
Liang Lu was stunned, the Explosive Flame Skill that she couldn’t perform just a moment ago suddenly flashed before her eyes.
“Why has my spell failed?”
Jiang Cheng calmly picked up the Reusable Type Talisman from the ground, held it up and introduced it to Liang Lu, “This is the Spiritual Energy Blockage Talisman, a first-grade offensive talisman. However, its target isn’t people, but the spiritual energy in the natural world. The inspiration comes from radio jamming, of course, you don’t know what radio is. In short, you can still cast a spell, but you can’t borrow power from the world around you. You must rely entirely on your own spiritual power to release it.”
Liang Lu clasped her head with both hands.
The Reverse Direction Relaxation Talisman, Perception Transmission Talisman, Spiritual Energy Blockage Talisman, what are all these unheard-of things!
“Do you have any normal talismans on you?”
Jiang Cheng stroked his chin and thought for a moment.
Liang Lu was on the verge of collapse, “Do you really need to think hard to answer that question?”
“There are some,” Jiang Cheng said. “After all, I am a Talisman Master, how could I not use normal talismans? Look.”
Jiang Cheng took out his Reusable Type Communication Talisman.
Liang Lu gave him a look of speechlessness.
Jiang Cheng glanced at the time on the Communication Talisman and said, “Liang, do you still intend to play tricks in this competition?”
Liang Lu’s face flushed red, and her mouth was filled with incomprehensible mutterings. Phrases like “How can this be considered losing,” “It’s clearly you who played tricks,” “I wasn’t prepared this time, I’ll let you have this one,” filled the air of the gym with a lively atmosphere.
“Liang.”
“What now?”
“I always thought you were quite serious, but you’re actually quite cute when you’re being stubborn.”
Liang Lu’s already flushed face turned so red it seemed it could drip blood.
“You, you’re mocking the princess, what’s the punishment for that!”
Jiang Cheng hurriedly defended himself, “I was complimenting you, not mocking you.”
“You’re still laughing! You’re clearly laughing!”
Jiang Cheng suddenly felt a headache, he had just been honest, really complimenting her, he didn’t understand why Liang Lu was angry.
The thoughts of a female cultivator are so hard to guess, much more difficult than drawing talismans.
“Let’s have another match!” Liang Lu stood up and said to Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng said, “No more matches.”
“Are you afraid I’ll win back?”
“You can’t beat me.”
“How can I not beat you, my cultivation is at the ninth level, my technique is meticulous…”
Jiang Cheng killed off Liang Lu’s fantasy with a single sentence, “What if I still have the Reverse Direction Relaxation Talisman, how do you plan to fight then?”
“Purification! As long as I have the Purification Talisman, your Reverse Direction Relaxation Talisman won’t work at all.”
“Purification is for eliminating after-effects, but the Reverse Direction Relaxation Talisman is a healing class talisman, accelerating digestion is a spontaneous action of your body’s muscles, the Purification Talisman won’t solve it.”
“But, but there must be other ways.”
Jiang Cheng said with a smile, “But you can’t think of any at the moment, can you?”
Liang Lu fell silent.
On Jiang Cheng, she felt a sense of powerlessness that she felt when facing Lin Yao.
She couldn’t win no matter what.
What to do?
Wait a minute!
If Jiang Cheng and Lin Yao were to compete, who would be stronger?
No, that’s not right!
Jiang Cheng doesn’t need to fight Lin Yao, but what if I took Jiang Cheng’s talismans and went to fight Lin Yao?
Jiang Cheng’s talismans don’t have a high casting difficulty; anyone with hands can use them.
As long as Jiang Cheng is willing to draw some for me.
Liang Lu’s thoughts and perspective suddenly broadened at this idea!
First, use Jiang Cheng’s talismans against Lin Yao and see how Lin Yao copes.
If Lin Yao can cope, then I can learn Lin Yao’s coping methods and then turn back to deal with Jiang Cheng.
If Lin Yao can’t cope, then I can directly defeat Lin Yao and wash away my humiliation!
“Jiang Cheng! The talismans you used just now, can you draw some for me?” Liang Lu asked politely.
Jiang Cheng looked at Liang Lu who had taken such an abrupt turn in her attitude and asked carefully, “What are you planning to do with them?”
“I want to take them to torment, no, I mean to test them out in a match with others.”
