After grinding the ink and preparing the inscribing paper, Bai Li Hongzhuang began her inscription.
This time, she didn't intend to create a complex inscription. She believed that the inscription techniques taught by the old man were exquisite. Although the level of the inscriptions wasn't high, she felt that the effects were already remarkable.
For ordinary cultivators, imprinting such inscriptions on their weapons could greatly enhance their power. This seemingly small assistance could actually lead to a significant increase in a cultivator's combat strength.
Bai Li Hongzhuang focused her mind and picked up the inscription pen, dipping it into the ink. The fiery red inscription ink resembled cinnabar but carried a faint golden glow, appearing bright and dazzling.
As soon as the pen touched the inscribing paper, Bai Li Hongzhuang's spirit reached its peak. She concentrated all her mental energy on the inscription she was about to create. Being an alchemist, she had always been adept at focusing her mental energy, and at this moment, her mind was solely occupied by the inscription she was about to draw.
Even before she began, she had already visualized the pattern she was going to draw. So, without hesitation, she started inscribing.
Each inscription had to be completed in one stroke without any interruptions. Once a stroke was interrupted, the inscription would fail. Furthermore, variations in the strength and consistency of the strokes could also lead to inscription failures. That's why becoming an inscription master was even more challenging than becoming an alchemist, which is why there were fewer inscription masters compared to alchemists.
During the inscription process, Bai Li Hongzhuang noticed an issue that she hadn't encountered during her virtual practice sessions. The inscription pen felt slightly stiff during the process, resulting in a failed inscription.
However, Bai Li Hongzhuang didn't mind the failures. Failure is the mother of success, and she had prepared herself for it by having so many pieces of inscribing paper ready.
Second attempt, failure.
Third attempt, failure.
It wasn't until the eighth attempt that Bai Li Hongzhuang finally managed to draw smooth lines with the inscription pen. The previous stiffness was due to her inadequate control of the pen's pressure.
Ninth attempt, after completing most of the inscription, Bai Li Hongzhuang suddenly realized that there wasn't enough ink left on her pen. The previous lines had consumed too much ink.
Tenth attempt, failure.
Little Black, Little White, and the White Lion sat in a row, silently watching Bai Li Hongzhuang's continuous failures. They couldn't help but feel amazed by their master's determination.
When she became serious, she was truly formidable.
She seemed to have no concept of failure or discouragement. She only had an unwavering heart.
As long as she persisted, success would eventually come!
The three little beasts remained quiet, not daring to disturb Bai Li Hongzhuang in the slightest. They secretly cheered and encouraged their master.
It wasn't until the twenty-first attempt that Bai Li Hongzhuang finally succeeded in inscribing a piece of paper!
A dazzling red radiance flashed across the inscribing paper, resembling a splendid firework that swiftly disappeared, revealing the formation of a six-pointed star pattern.
A smile slowly appeared on Bai Li Hongzhuang's lips. After experiencing twenty failures, she had finally succeeded in inscribing a piece of paper!
"Finally, I've succeeded in creating one."
As she looked at the red six-pointed star pattern on the inscribing paper, a satisfied glimmer shimmered in Bai Li Hongzhuang's eyes. She placed it aside and continued her inscribing.
Having grasped the feeling after much difficulty, she naturally needed to press on with determination!
