Li Yuan returned to his residence, went to the table, and spread out the talisman paper.
He took out the Warning Talisman crafting method he had purchased and cross-referenced it with the experience in the Talisman Crafting Manual.
The spirit pattern structure of a Warning Talisman was slightly more complex than that of a Warding Talisman.
At its core was a perception-type spirit pattern circuit—after spiritual power was injected to activate the Warning Talisman, it would form a sensing area that lasted for a period of time. When fluctuations in external spiritual energy exceeded a certain threshold and disturbed the area, the talisman would emit a faint spiritual glow as a warning.
The difficult part lay in the precision of the perception spirit pattern. Every arc in the spirit pattern circuit had to be even and consistent in thickness. The slightest deviation would result in uneven sensitivity—either it would be too sensitive, with even a gust of wind setting it off, or too dull, failing to react even if people were fighting outside.
Li Yuan picked up his brush, dipped it in cinnabar, and set it onto the first sheet of talisman paper.
Although it was more difficult than a Warding Talisman, Li Yuan had gained considerably more Talisman Making experience than before. He successfully crafted a Warning Talisman on his seventh attempt.
The Panel popped up:
[Detected equippable item: Warning Talisman (Complete)] [Affix preview: Danger Perception (Gray)—slightly amplifies perception of danger, allowing earlier alertness when danger approaches] [Permanent condition preview: Spend a cumulative three hours in a dangerous environment (0/3) / evade one dangerous attack in advance during a battle (0/1). Completing either condition will suffice] [Current Equipment Slots are full (3/3). Replace currently equipped item?]
Li Yuan's finger paused briefly at the edge of the talisman
