In the martial arts arena, after performing the fire talisman, Zheng Zibu began to show the five strong men talisman.
He took out a talisman with the names of the five plague gods Zhang, Liu, Zhao, Zhong and Shi written on the talisman.
After chanting the spell, the talisman turned into a ball of clear air. In the clear air, five strong men appeared three feet in the air. They were wearing five-colored robes and each holding an object. One held a spoon and a pot, one held a leather bag and a sword, one held a fan, one held a hammer, and one held a fire pot.
Zheng Zibu introduced, "These are the Five Powerful Warriors. In the sky they are the Five Ghosts, and on the earth they are the Five Plagues. They are Zhang Yuanbo, the Spring Plague; Liu Yuanda, the Summer Plague; Zhao Gongming, the Autumn Plague; Zhong Shigui, the Winter Plague; and Shi Wenye, the General Manager of the Central Plague. After setting up the altar and performing the ritual, I have borrowed a bit of the divine power of the five Powerful Warriors and sealed it in a talisman. I can directly activate it when necessary!"
After the introduction, Zheng Zibu waved his hand and said, "Go!"
The five strong men suddenly flew out into the air and directly pushed through the small woods in front of them. Then their strength was exhausted and they turned into a ball of clear air and dissipated.
Everyone was shocked and talked about it.
"Fuck! These five strong men are too powerful! I feel like if I go up there, I won't be able to defeat even one of these five strong men, let alone that Taoist priest!"
"What do you think? Making this Five Warriors Talisman is very troublesome. Even though he looks so impressive in the martial arts arena now, he might have spent several hours in private to make one. With such a long preparation time, it must be very powerful when used!"
"By the way, the old Heavenly Master is here today, right? He said he brought a disciple with him. If the Taoist priests of the Shangqing Sect are so skilled at using talismans, then how powerful must the Heavenly Master's disciple, who is the head of the Three Mountains Talisman Sect, be?!"
"I don't know, anyway, we are going to open our eyes today!"
At this moment, the disciple of the Heavenly Master, as everyone called him, was looking at Zheng Zibu thoughtfully, thinking:
"The warriors summoned by this Five Warriors Talisman are not just black shadows, they have complete divine appearances. This is because Zheng Zibu's magic scroll must have been enhanced."
Taoist talismans are divided into five grades after they are first granted, and each grade is equivalent to an upgrade of authority.
This is a bit similar to a divine mask. The higher the grade, the more powerful the pardon. For the same talisman, the power of the one made by a high-grade Taoist priest is far greater than that of a low-grade Taoist priest.
When a Taoist priest first enters the art of talismans, the talisman he is granted is called the "Tai Shang San Wu Du Gong Jing Lu", which is a fifth-grade talisman. Anyone who is granted this talisman will make talismans of the fifth grade, no matter what kind of talismans they make.
For example, Zhang Zhiwei’s talisman is the fifth-grade “Tai Shang San Wu Du Gong Jing Lu”.
Even if he doesn't practice talismans very much, he will have this talisman, because it is equivalent to his identity card in the Zhengyi Sect. Without this talisman, he is just a wild Taoist priest.
If Zhang Zhiwei spent more time on the art of talismans and condensed the magic talismans, he would be able to obtain an additional grant and upgrade the fifth-grade Tai Shang San Wu Du Gong Sutra to the fourth-grade Tai Shang Zheng Yi Meng Wei Sutra.
By then, the talismans he made would have the power of the fourth rank.
As the saying goes, if your cultivation level is one level higher, then there is no limit to it. The talismans made by a Taoist priest with a fourth-grade talisman are far more powerful than those of a fifth-grade one.
So don’t look at Lu Jin of later generations, who relied on the Tongtian Talisman among the Eight Wonders to cast talismans like scattering beans. But he was not a Taoist priest of the talisman school after all. No matter how many talismans he cast, they were just for show and their power was mediocre. This also led to the Tongtian Talisman being called the weakest of the Eight Wonders for a time.
If this amazing skill is in the hands of a Taoist master who is proficient in talismans, its power will be increased by several levels.
After Zheng Zibu finished his martial arts performance, a young man with a melon-shaped haircut came on stage. His name was Liao Tianlin and he was from Jiyun Society.
"Jiyun Society's Liao Tianlin sounds familiar. He seems to be one of the future thirty-six thieves, but his presence among the thirty-six thieves is not very strong!"
Zhang Zhiwei tried to recall the information about Liao Tianlin in his mind, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with anything. He only knew that he was a supporting role who died without even knowing how!
As for the Jiyun Society he belongs to...
The name sounds like a gang-like society, but it is actually an organization that inherits ancient magic tricks. It originated in the Southern Song Dynasty and has a history of nearly seven hundred years.
The people of this sect have cunning and varied methods. The more famous ones include the Thousand-Jin Corn Stance, the Immortal Rope, the Beheading Magic Trick, etc.
At this time, Liao Tianlin performed an entry-level magic trick called Immortal Picking Beans.
The name is mysterious, and it actually means using special techniques to launch hidden weapons, making them appear and disappear without a trace, pointing east and hitting west, making it unpredictable.
As for its power... it can easily penetrate tree trunks, comparable to firearms, which is quite good.
Because Jiyun Club is a traditional opera club, regardless of the power of Liao Tianlin's move, it is very entertaining to watch. The younger generation below cheered, and the older generation also admired his technique, which led to a wave of commercial praise between them.
After all, they are the thirty-six thieves of the future, and their abilities are quite good. In the entire world of extraordinary people, they are also the best among the younger generation.
Everyone was satisfied, except Old Master Lu. He pounded his cane on the ground and said to Lu Xuan:
"Xiao Xuan, didn't you tell me last night that there was a sparring session? You even asked for my opinion. What about sparring? It's good to be alone, but it's not lively. When will you arrange the sparring session?"
The old man couldn't wait to see his grandson on stage.
"Uncle, please stop talking. I know you enjoy watching the fun, so I didn't even ask you last night!"
Lu Xuan looked at the young talents who appeared today, especially Feng Tianyang and Zheng Zibu, and felt a little unsure. He was worried that his son would suffer a loss, so he didn't start yet. Unexpectedly, his uncle got anxious first.
Old Master Lu laughed heartily and said, "I'm happy to see young people so full of energy. Besides, it's just a game, so we should stop when we're done and avoid hurting each other!"
The Wang family's Patriarch echoed, "That's right, Brother Lu. The Heavenly Master and the Left Sect Leader are here. What are you afraid of? Come on, let Jin'er take action and open everyone's eyes!"
Lu Jin was standing obediently beside Zuo Rutong. When he heard this, he immediately said eagerly:
"Hey, from what the old man said, you still need to find someone to help me, right?"
"Of course!" The old man looked at the field and laughed, "Is there any young talent who wants to come on stage and help my Jin'er?!"
There was silence on the field. Lu Jin, the direct disciple of the Sanyi Sect's Daying Immortal, had defeated the other two members of the Lu family's twin brothers yesterday. His methods were so clever that for a moment, no one wanted to be the first to stand out.
"Tianshi!"
Zuo Rutong looked at Zhang Jingqing.
Zhang Jingqing coughed lightly and was about to call Zhang Zhiwei up.
"I'll do it!"
A red figure jumped into the middle of the martial arts arena. The person was wearing red clothes and had pigtails. It was Feng Ping.
"Huode Zong Fengping, come and help you!" Fengping said with a smile.
He and Lu Jin are friends. Yesterday, Lu Jin stood up for him and had a fierce fight with Lu Ci. In order to return the favor, he naturally had to come and support Lu Jin.
