Chapter 461 Spell



Chapter 461 Spell

The white Land Rover was parked by the seaside road. After turning off the engine, Cheng Feng opened the window.

A slightly salty sea breeze blew into the car.

Lighting a cigarette, Cheng Feng placed Zhao Li's painstaking work on the steering wheel and began to intently read through it.

He kept looking at it from noon until dusk, until only the last trace of sunset remained on the horizon, before Cheng Feng finally turned his gaze away from the detailed explanation of the talisman in Zhao Li's version.

In a short while, a golden talisman appeared out of thin air in the desolate sands of Venus, where Cheng Feng's body was located.

On this planet without even an atmosphere, bolts of purple lightning struck the boulder in front of the talisman one after another.

After a total of forty-nine bolts of lightning, the boulder had completely disappeared, leaving only a dark, deep pit.

"The art of talismans is indeed profound and extensive. With just a trace of power as a catalyst, it can drive the power of laws and cause damage far exceeding that of brute force."

Inside the car by the sea, Cheng Feng opened his eyes and sighed softly.

The detailed explanation of talismans explains the origins of talismans and the principles by which they work.

In the beginning, writing appeared between heaven and earth. Although these writings were primitive, they were simple in their essence, and each of them contained the ultimate truth of heaven and earth.

Therefore, writing these words will evoke a response from the laws of heaven and earth.

It allows all living beings to use power far exceeding their own.

Finally, these beings who mastered the spells derived even more uses for the spells based on the original text.

For example, based on the power they possess, they can develop talismans that share the same origin.

This allows future generations to use the power of their ancestors and teachers according to the talisman.

There are also talismans that conform to the various rules of heaven and earth, making clothing, food, housing, and transportation more convenient.

The purification amulet connects with the wind, using a gentle breeze to carry away impurities from the body, eliminating the need for washing clothes or bathing.

Talismans for transmitting information, talismans for protecting the home, talismans for ensuring food safety, talismans for quick travel, talismans for safe passage, and so on.

Finally, Taoism brought the art of talismans to its peak.

For example, exorcising evil spirits, protecting the home and bringing peace to the people.

Cheng Feng's true form is a transcendent being. After understanding the origin of talismans, he quickly applied what he learned to other situations and mastered this ancient technique.

"This will make it easier for me to use the power of my main body. I'll go get some raw materials first."

Before it got completely dark, Cheng Feng started the car and headed towards the city.

On the way, Cheng Feng called Zhao Li to ask where he could buy the materials for drawing talismans.

Following the address given by Zhao Li, Cheng Feng parked his car in front of a funeral home half an hour later.

There are always some trades that will not disappear even as times change.

For example, actors, matchmakers, barbers, and of course, funeral workers who also sell metaphysical materials.

At the funeral shop recommended by Zhao Li, Cheng Feng bought all the materials he needed to draw the talisman.

Items such as wolf-hair brushes, cinnabar, and yellow talismans are quite expensive, but there's a reason for the high price; at least the quality is guaranteed.

Instead of assembling the 'guns and ammunition' he had bought, Cheng Feng first went to a restaurant for a big meal.

It wasn't until after 8 p.m. that Cheng Feng finally parked his car next to the No. 444 convenience store under the streetlights.

The somewhat haphazardly made stall was no longer there.

Instead, a shed with a white aluminum alloy frame was erected.

The sign for his metaphysical convenience store hung on the front of the stall. It was unclear whether it was Zhao Li's idea, but some astrological elements had been added to the side of the sign.

Arriving at the door, Cheng Feng opened it and stepped inside onto the light gray carpet.

Press the switch next to the door.

Soft lights shone from above, and Cheng Feng looked up to see the starry sky through the hexagonal transparent ceiling.

Rose gold LED strips are inlaid in the corners.

A curtain in the same color as the carpet covered the ceiling, creating a separate little space.

Cheng Feng's original small table was replaced with a much larger workbench, which was covered with a leather table mat.

A rocking chair was placed in the main seat, while an exquisitely designed armchair was placed opposite it.

There were also a few small stools nearby, showing that more than one guest was present.

Other details are also well done, such as the Monstera deliciosa in the corner and the Bagua pendant hanging below the curtain.

The most amazing thing is that they even provided a crystal ball and tarot cards, which is quite in line with the preferences of modern young people.

"No wonder Zhao Li is so successful in the underworld; which boss wouldn't like someone with his competence!"

Silently giving Zhao Li a positive review in his heart, Cheng Feng hung the "Open for Business" sign outside the door with considerable satisfaction.

Then he went back into the shed and began turning the talismans he had just bought into 'guns and ammunition'.

The talismans drawn by Cheng Feng differed from traditional talismans; they did not contain any complicated strokes.

It is just a simple, ancient rice seedling, representing the agricultural meaning contained in the character "Cheng" in Cheng Feng's name.

These talismans are merely a medium, allowing Cheng Feng to better utilize his divine power. Anyone else wishing to use these talismans needs Cheng Feng's consent for them to be effective.

Otherwise, it's just a piece of waste paper.

Soon, Cheng Feng drew hundreds of talismans that were granted permission to borrow divine power.

Feeling that it was about time, Cheng Feng put away the materials and then put the finished talismans into his pocket.

With surplus provisions in hand, Cheng Feng regained his leisurely demeanor. This meant that even if he encountered a difficult situation, he wouldn't need to expend physical strength and energy to directly utilize his physical power.

His body was, after all, mortal, and every time he used his strength, it would cause some damage.

If it's not carefully maintained, its lifespan will be greatly reduced, and it will take a lot of time to sculpt a new body.

At this moment, a day shift clerk is minding the store.

Convenience store No. 444 does not have a dedicated night shift employee. Usually, the owner, Zhao Li, works the night shift himself. Occasionally, when there is something going on, he will ask the employees who are off the day shift to work overtime.

Some shop assistants gossiped behind the scenes, saying that the boss was stingy and would rather suffer himself than spend money to hire a night shift waiter.

Little did they know that the position had already been reserved by a person named Xia Dongqing.

That night, Cheng Feng's shop had no customers.

But Cheng Feng wasn't surprised; Zhao Li's shabby shop was in a bad location to begin with.

In feng shui, a T-junction is called a "clashing energy" intersection. The 'dynamic energy' brought by the flow of vehicles and pedestrians is like a sharp blade slashing at the inauspicious location.

This means it's a shop run by ghost messengers. If anyone else were in this location, they would be struck by lightning and have evil spirits enter their home.

Therefore, it's normal for businesses to have few customers or even no customers at all when they do business here.

Otherwise, Zhao Li wouldn't always be complaining about being poor.

After returning home, Cheng Feng ate breakfast and took a nap as usual.

Around 10 a.m., Cheng Feng was woken up by a phone call.

After removing his blindfold, Cheng Feng stretched leisurely, loosening his muscles and bones, before picking up his phone to answer the call.

"Hello, is this Mr. Cheng? I'm Noon Sunshine, who posted a request for help on your Weibo account."
