C560 Self-mutilation

Lu Shan did not think that... It was far more difficult to create this kind of paper talisman technique than he had imagined.

In actuality, with the strength of his current Spiritual Force, he had only just reached the level of being able to release it externally. For him to start crafting paper talismans that required a large amount of Spiritual Force, it was truly difficult.

When he had just written down four runes on the paper, he felt that his spiritual force was almost drained. He had no choice but to take three bottles of spiritual force potions in succession to prevent himself from fainting.

By the time he finished drawing the entire paper talisman, he had already drunk nine bottles of Spirit Potion and barely managed to endure it.

He had originally thought that the spiritual potion was useless. After all, he rarely used his spiritual force to such an extent. And if it's used to treat people's illnesses... Generally speaking, life potion was more than enough. Unless the other party had a mental illness, this potion could only be of some use. And if it's pure psychosis... Even if he drank some Spirit Elixir, it would still be useless.

So... After Lu Shan concocted a few more Spirit Potions, he did not go to concoct any more, since he did not have much use for them anyways, it would be a waste if he made more.

But now, he didn't think that way anymore … If he were to draw talismans frequently in the future, then … Perhaps the consumption of this spiritual potion would be quite terrifying as well!

However, creating a Spirit Potion required Upgrade Box's consumption rate, so … Lu Shan felt that if he were to make these paper talismans more often in the future, it would be best to increase his Spirit Qi. When he was crafting talismans again, it wouldn't be so difficult!

However … Before this, he had to first see if this Jing Tian paper talisman had such miraculous effects. If this talisman was actually useless, then he naturally wouldn't bother with it. There was no need to increase his spiritual force attributes in order to make these talismans.

However … How was he going to test this?

He remembered that this talisman could be pasted on his body to stop the bleeding and pain. It could also be pasted on the leaking water to stop leakage. It could even be placed on the boat to protect himself …

The Talisman had a wide range of uses, but for him, sticking it in the water to stop leakage didn't seem like much of a use. If anything like a bottle or a bucket leaked, he could just change it to something new! It took so much effort to stop the glyph from being stuck... Wasn't this too much of a pain in the ass!

As for putting them on the ship to ensure their safety … He couldn't do it in such a short period of time! If you put it under your pillow, you won't have nightmares... This was useless against him. His body was healthy to begin with. If he wasn't, he could just drink a bottle of Life Potion and not dream about it. Then... It seemed like he could only test to see if he could stop the bleeding and stop the pain!

If this aspect was very useful, it would be of some use to him. At the very least, it could be used as a substitute for the elixir of life. Although he felt that it would be more reliable to consume the Life Potion if he was really injured, he still needed to use the Upgrade Box multiple times in order to make the Life Potion, so … If this could be mass-produced without the use of a spiritual potion, it would be great if he could make one every day and keep it as a backup.

Thinking of this, he steeled his heart and pulled out a black dagger, slicing down viciously at his arm …

His cut was not light. Blood splattered everywhere from the strike, to the point where it seemed as if one of his arteries had been cut off. If others were to see this … He had to think that he was cutting his own wrist to commit suicide!

Actually, he didn't want to injure himself so badly, but there was nothing he could do … His own Defensive Capability was already very strong, when the automatic rifle bullets hit his body, they could only scratch his skin a little, and not even blood would flow. If his actions were too light, and his blade did not bleed, then wouldn't he have been cut for nothing?

Furthermore, he was not sure how strong he was or how strong he was compared to the Defensive Power, so he used too much force. Adding to that, his black dagger was also incredibly sharp, it almost cut off his wrist!

The good thing was … Before, Lu Shan had even concocted a kind of black jade that was able to perfectly bind the severed limbs together, so even if he really cut off the wrist just now, it actually wasn't a big deal. At most, he would just suffer a little.

Seeing how ruthless the slash was, Lu Shan was also a little confused, seeing the blood spurt out from the wound, he immediately grabbed the paper talisman that he had drawn with great difficulty and stuck it to his wound.

In fact, he couldn't help but mutter to himself while he was posting the talisman. He felt that it wasn't too reliable. Could such a folded piece of A4 paper really stop the bleeding and stop the pain? He had been soaked in blood all of a sudden!

He never would have thought that... Once the Glyph Paper touched it, he felt as if his wrist, which was in extreme pain, was covered in an ice bag. A cool feeling seeped into his body, and the pain disappeared in an instant, and the blood that was gushing out of the wound also stopped, not a single drop of blood remained …

Damn, it really worked!

Lu Shan couldn't help but stare with wide eyes, for a moment he couldn't believe it … However, thinking about the effects of the Life Potion, he happily accepted this result.

He waited for a little longer, and when he felt that the place where he had been cut was completely healed, he took off the Glyph Paper, only to see... The cut on his wrist had been completely healed, and the effect was almost the same as drinking a life potion. In just a short period of time, the wound had healed without the slightest scar.

On his Glyph Paper, there was not even a speck of blood. It was just that … The runes on it seemed to be a little blurry, but Lu Shan could still feel that these runes still contained a lot of psychokinesis.

He had channeled psychokinesis into the rune by himself, so it was natural that he could clearly feel it. However, with psychokinesis on hand, the rune would still have some effect.

This talisman was actually not a one-time use item … Not bad, not bad … Under normal circumstances, using this rune another two or three times wouldn't be a problem if they were both injured in the same situation.

However, when he focused his senses on the runes on the Glyph Paper, he realised that the psychokinesis was slowly dispersing. This was because these runes were only written in ordinary ink. Although ink could also fuse with psychokinesis, it was unable to lock down this psychokinesis for a long time, so … If he did not use this talisman right after, it would not even take a day for this talisman to turn into scrap paper!

It seemed that in the future, if he wanted to mass-produce these talismans, he would need to purchase some fine cinnabar. Only by creating these talismans would they be able to maintain their effects for a long time.
