Talisman scriptures were like writing words; every talisman script was like a Chinese character. Its strokes were created from left to right, and different sizes and distances had to be taken into account.
Qingfeng, who had just listened to Dark Night Emperor's lecture on talisman script knowledge, looked towards the inner walls of the Refinery King Kettle.
"Such powerful talisman scripts." Qingfeng only took one look at the Kettle's inner walls, and he was already in shock.
Before he learned talisman script knowledge, Qingfeng didn't know what these characters meant. However once Dark Night Emperor explained it to him, Qingfeng could recognize the power of the talisman script in the Refinery King Kettle's inner walls with one look.
Average talisman scripts were clearly separated into 10 veins, 20 veins, 30 veins, 40 veins, and with more veins, the more powerful the talisman script it represented.
The more powerful the talisman script, the more powerful the attack.
Qingfeng saw roughly 300 veins intertwined into one talisman scripture.
300 veins meant that 300 talisman characters were interconnected, even though the entire script was smaller than the size of a pea. Some were only the size of a needlepoint, which couldn't be seen without close inspection.
Despite the small size of these talisman scripts, it contained immense power inside.
These talisman scripts ranged in size and length. Some were thick, while some were thin, and they were interconnected in every direction, like a tightly knitted spider web. Every single script looked different yet similar.
Only self-cultivators who understood talisman scripts could understand these deep scripts. Normal people definitely wouldn't understand, and it would be like reading alien characters.
"Senior, these are all heavenly dao talisman scripts, ice talisman scripts to be exact. Every talisman script represents ice root energy, and every stroke contains frigid energy that can chill one to the bones," Qingfeng looked at these talisman scripts and said to Dark Night Emperor.
Dark Night Emperor nodded and looked at Qingfeng with appraisal.
Dark Night Emperor only passed talisman script knowledge to Qingfeng, but he never taught him how to approach it.
However, Qingfeng had used the basic knowledge in his mind to recognize the talisman script's category. He was definitely extremely talented.
"Little guy, do you know how to crack talisman scripts?" Dark Night Emperor asked Qingfeng with a light smile.
Qingfeng shook his head, and said, "Senior, I don't know."
Qingfeng had just learned basic talisman script knowledge, and it was limited; he still had things he didn't know and naturally didn't know how to crack the scripts.
Dark Night Emperor pointed at a talisman script before him, and said, "Look at this talisman script, there is a weakness in the left bottom corner of its veins, because it was too short, the heavenly dao ice energy didn't reach it."
Qingfeng nodded and said, "Senior, I see it, this talisman script vein is problematic."
Dark Night Emperor said, "Little brat, remember that talisman scripts represents the heavenly dao rules. Every stroke, every movement, every vein has its own rules. It can't be too long, too short, too thick, or too thin, or else it will be imbalanced, and its power would diminish."
Qingfeng listened to Dark Night Emperor's explanation while he looked at the inner walls of Refinery King Kettle and inspected the other talisman scripts.
On the inner walls of the Refinery King Kettle, there were dozens of talisman scripts tightly packaged together. These scripts each looked like an odd word, like prehistoric words, yet also like gibberish. It was completely different from modern words and were impossible to comprehend.
These talisman scripts were part of the heavenly dao's natural rules, so it wouldn't be easily understood. If it could be easily understood, then it wouldn't be heavenly dao laws.
Qingfeng suddenly realized, after he saw a flaw in the talisman script, that a powerful energy blossomed in his body. This powerful strength blocked off the Refinery King Kettle's attack and prevented the Kettle from invading his body and melting his physical vital essence.
Qingfeng's eyes appeared joyful as he continued to inspect these talisman scripts and applied the knowledge he had just learned. He began to recognize that there were differences in these talisman scripts' lengths, and every vein moved in different tracks.
"Senior, it is quite thin in the middle of these three talisman scripts. It must have been caused by the lack of force when the talisman script was sculpted," Qingfeng said as he pointed at the third talisman scripture.
Dark Night Emperor nodded with appraisal and said, "Good job, find more of these flaws. It will help your training later on."
With Dark Night Emperor's help, Qingfeng found nine flaws in the talisman scripts.
"Senior, I've only found nine flaws, but can't find anymore." Qingfeng shook his head with hints of regret.
Dark Night Emperor smiled and said, "Qingfeng, you've done very well, there are 18 flaws amongst these talisman scripts. You've already found half of them. This has already surprised me since you've only just learned about talisman scripts."
Dark Night Emperor exclaimed in his heart that Qingfeng was indeed very talented. Qingfeng could understand talisman scripts so quickly after only learning about it for a bit.
Dark Night Emperor was happy to have met Qingfeng and accepted him as a disciple. He believed that Qingfeng was destined for greatness, and no matter where, he would shine regardless.
He looked at the inner walls of the Kettle, and said, "Qingfeng the 18 flaws in the Refinery King Kettle talisman scripts are, the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth…."
Qingfeng looked in the direction of where Dark Night Emperor pointed and found all the talisman script flaws he missed.
"Senior, we've found all the talisman script flaws, but how do we break it?" asked Qingfeng.
The inside of the Refinery King Kettle was an independent dimension, and Qingfeng could just speak to Dark Night Emperor normally and wouldn't be heard by others.
Dark Night Emperor smiled and said, "Very easy. Use the golden flame to burn all the talisman script flaws and the kettle will crack. You'll then just have to punch it to break it."
Qingfeng was overjoyed, because he believed that if he followed Dark Night Emperor's orders, the kettle will definitely be cracked. It didn't matter if it was the saint's treasure; it had to be broken as long as it was in his way.
At the same time, outside of the Refinery King Kettle, everyone looked at the Kettle and heard nothing, so they all wondered if Qingfeng was still alive.
However, the kettle was Binger Zhao's treasure, and only Binger Zhao could feel it. No one else knew whether or not Qingfeng was dead or alive.
