The leather scroll had no title, clearly handwritten by someone.
Lan Xiaobu guessed it wasn’t written by Nian—if it were, Nian would’ve told him directly that it was his work.
Lan Xiaobu knew how to craft talismans, but his skills only extended to third-grade immortal talismans.
He had learned that much back when he was studying how to make formation flags.
The talisman-crafting methods described in Nian’s scroll were completely different from what he had learned before.
Just as Lan Xiaobu was about to take out materials to try crafting a few talismans using these new techniques, someone called out to him.
"Captain, may I have a word with you?"
The speaker was Liu Zhi, an early-stage Heavenly God cultivator who wasn’t particularly outstanding among the twenty-odd members of their squad—fairly average, in fact.
"Liu Zhi? Of course! Come, take a seat."
Lan Xiaobu waved warmly.
Liu Zhi approached and, before speaking, first cast a soundproofing barrier.
