Chapter 626 – Preparing to Draw Inscriptions
”Hongzhuan, you’re back!” Before Baili Hongzhuang had the time to open her door, the door opposite had already been opened and Xia Zhiqing stuck out her head, her expression filled with excitement.
Baili Hongzhuang smiled gently as she nodded her head, “when did you come back? There is still some time left of the vacation.”
“I returned two days ago. I was simply too bored at home, so when I saw the chance I returned to the college,” Xia Zhiqing laughed.
While speaking with Baili Hongzhuang, she looked back, but she found that she had not even seen a trace of Di Beichen and could not help but wonder, “Hongzhuang, did he not return with you?”She knew how close those two were. If Baili Hongzhuang was here, then Di Beichen should definitely also be here.
“He had some things he needed to deal with and left first. I guess that he will return after a few days.”
Xia Zhiqing’s face lit up in understanding, “You are right, with the status of Di Beichen, he has a lot he needs to deal with.”
Now the identity of Di Beichen was no longer a secret. As the young lord of Tiangang Sect he had to be very busy.
For the sake of accompanying Baili Hongzhuang, Di Beichen must have suffered a lot of pressure.
After talking a bit with Xia Zhiqing, Baili Hongzuang returned to her room.
As of now, she had been studying inscriptions for a while. Although she had practiced many times within the Chaos Ring together with the old man, she had actually still not created an inscription.Taking advantage of the time she had now, it was the best chance to draw an inscription.
Practice makes perfect, and every inscription artist needed a large quantity of materials.
It was just like an alchemists also need to be cultivated under the use of numerous herbs. Only after many times would they gain an understanding of the profession.
This kind of understanding couldn’t be ignored by others. It was an understaning of how many and how much of each material to add, and for an inscription artist, it was especially impotant to know how much force to add.
If you had this kind of understanding when writing inscriptions, then the success rate would become much bigger.
Baili Hongzhuang had bought some materials for inscriptions before. The inscriptions she wanted to draw were not difficult and thus the materials were easy to find.
Inscriptions were constructed by different lines and and shapes. Different patterns had different effects, and when they were placed on top of one another the effects would change.
In the eyes of others, it may be that the patterns were difficult to understand and it was hard to see the difference between them, only the inscriptionists would be able to understand what these patterns meant.
Yet just as the alchemist’s formulas were confidential, the inscriptionists would not draw their inscriptions while others were looking. Once the inscription was formed only a simple pattern would be visible – not even all the structures of the inscription could be seen.
Inscriptions were extremely tiresome to make. It took a long time to create an inscription.
If there was a problem while making the inscription, one needed to redo it from the start.
Baili Hongzhuang had followed the old man’s methods for a very long time in order to master it. The materials required for the different inscriptions were not the same, at the same time, the better materials, the better the inscription’s effect became.
