'Heaven Communicating Talisman Art' is one of the best spells in that world and is recognized as the most prominent ability of Talisman Magic.
The process of producing talismans is very complicated and time-consuming, starting from the initial preparations to choosing the right time to draw the talisman, and then continuing with the details of drawing the talisman itself.
Each step requires significant effort, and the rituals for each type of talisman also vary. Therefore, it takes at least several hours for a Taoist Priest to draw a talisman.
However, after mastering 'Heaven Communicating Talisman Art', one can easily draw talismans in emptiness, disregarding all complicated limitations.
I must admit, this is clearly a very good start for Lance.
However, to unleash all the best capabilities of 'Heaven Communicating Talisman Art', there is an important requirement: mastering a sufficient number of talisman types.
Lance was not a Taoist Priest in his previous life, so how could he know how to create talismans?
After searching online and asking ordinary people, Lance found that all the information he obtained—both from the internet and books—was all false.
Feeling desperate, Lance decided to go to Hong Kong Island to seek a true hidden master.
There, Lance met a woman named Wu Guiyue. Wu Guiyue is one of the guardians of the Hong Kong Sanctum, which is one of the Three Sanctums recommended by Kamar-Taj.
After entering Kamar-Taj to practice magic, Lance was unsure whether his success came from the 'Heaven Communicating Talisman Art' given by the system, or because Lance had an extraordinary magical constitution.
Wu Guiyue then recommended Lance to practice at Kamar-Taj, and Kaecilius was appointed as Lance's instructor.
Kamar-Taj does not restrict the freedom of its students. They are welcome to stay and help fight against dimensional invasions, but it is also fine if they want to leave and start their own ventures.
Lance studied at Kamar-Taj for three years, but despite studying hard, he found it difficult to progress. In the end, Lance decided to leave Kamar-Taj and go to New York to open this mysterious shop, while occasionally going out to 'kill demons'.
Do not underestimate it; the mysterious side of the Marvel Universe is not only made up of Kamar-Taj Sorcerers and Ghost Rider.
In fact, this world is a very rich world of magic. In addition to the mystical lineage of Kamar-Taj, there are also male and female sorcerers studying Elemental powers, Druid sects capable of controlling plant powers, and shamans from primitive African tribes.
There are also individuals who make sacrifices to the gods and many more who contribute to the diversity and richness of magic in this world.
There are countless dimensional demons out there, yearning for the material world on Earth. These powerful demons are blocked by the magical network of Kamar-Taj.
However, the eyes of the Sorcerer Supreme cannot see every corner of the Earth, and some 'fish' manage to escape the net, sneaking into the human world and silently devouring human souls.
Lance relies on hunting these demons to 'level up.' Unfortunately, the number of fish that manage to escape the net is too few.
Lance often finds himself in situations where his desire to work hard is hindered by his inability to find a 'monster' to kill.
In fact, hunting supervillains is also a promising option. The experience they offer is no less valuable compared to ordinary demons.
Unfortunately, many of them are still in an immature stage of development. It is not easy for Lance to find a few 'elite monsters' that qualify to start a fun game.
All these factors limit Lance's progress, making him feel trapped in an endless cycle.
Kaecilius, who has a gloomy personality, often serves as a mentor to the apprentice Sorcerers and is quite popular among low-level Sorcerers.
Lance has a good relationship with Kaecilius, who often uses stealth attack methods to test the qualifications of the apprentice Sorcerers. Even after Lance left Kamar-Taj, Kaecilius occasionally appears to test Lance's magical progress.
"Until you fully mature," Kaecilius reminds him with an emphatic tone. This time, Kaecilius returns his magical weapon and continues, "But I haven't seen you for five months, and your progress does not satisfy me."
"You know my situation," Lance replies with a nod, shrugging. "I'm not just a practitioner of magic, but I'm also training in various other things at the same time. Is it fair for me to fall behind in magic?"
Kaecilius stares at Lance sharply, as if assessing the truth in Lance's words. On one hand, Lance understands that training outside of Kamar-Taj is important.
However, on the other hand, Lance knows that magical power is the foundation that a Sorcerer must prioritize.
Kaecilius remains expressionless. "Then... prove it to me!"
In the past, all the tests given by Kaecilius could be easily passed by Lance. After all, time always felt limited, and usually, the tests were conducted casually during mission execution.
But today, the atmosphere is different. Lance is genuinely intent on fighting Kaecilius seriously.
Feeling a bit strange with the tension between them, Lance doesn't think too much about it. He simply points to his shop and says, "Okay, but please move to another place. Everything here is made with my hard work."
"Hmph." Kaecilius glares into Lance's eyes, as if scrutinizing his disciple's resolve. With a firm step, the scene in front of Lance immediately changes.
Mirror Space!
A spell that can only be used by high-level Sorcerers to create a mirror dimension, where everything that happens will not affect the real world. The space is filled with sparkling light, creating an illusion that makes anyone feel as if they are in an endless maze.
"Now, can we begin?" Kaecilius asks, his voice firm and unwavering, indicating that this is not just an ordinary test. Every movement, every spell cast here will be a true measure of Lance's abilities.
Lance takes a deep breath, feeling the rising pressure. He knows he must utilize all the lessons he has learned so far.
