Primordial Symbols Law

## Primordial Symbols LawGong\_12\_None

### Description

A school of teachings thought to come from the Golden Immortal Yunzhong Zi. It found a new way outside of the traditional system of Golden Core Cultivation. Seizing the moment of breakthrough, one would be able to congeal five Natal Talismans, which have fascinating uses.

### Description on Selection

As you become more cultivated in this Law, you can coagulate five Natal Talismans to this skill to obtain the permanent blessing of the power of Talisman. However, the Law falls short in the field of Magic, being not very good at fighting.

## Xiandao Aspects

### Skills

* Bestow
* Protect

**Primordial Symbols Law** is an unusual None Non-Taiyi Law that focuses on Talismans and incorporates them into Cultivation in a unique fashion with Natal Talismans, making them extremely versatile. They also have exclusive access to some of the most powerful Talismans.

## Methods of acquisition

Unless He Zudao is Withdrawn or Greedy, you'll need a disciple with 14 or more Social Skill Level (not Ability Rating). If you have an outer fitting the requirement, you can invite He Zudao to your sect to break her guard instead of doing it on her Sect grounds.

1. Buy Territory Access from Skydome Palace.
2. Equip a Talisman Paper (or a Blood Talisman or Sacred Talisman) ideally with an inner having 14 or more Social skill level.
3. Camp and enter Heavenstep Peak with the mentioned inner,
4. Using the Social Minigame, acquire information on He Zudao's personality by talking to other Skydome Palace members.
	* If she's Withdrawn or Greedy:
		+ Get her Favor to 60 and invite her to your sect.
		+ When she arrives, beat her unconscious (without killing her) and take the law manual by force.
		+ Alternatively, you can roast her: drop hot materials like Blazing Feather in her assigned room after trapping her until she falls unconscious, rob her then heal her.
	* Otherwise:
		+ Find out one of her obsession by talking to her fellow sect members
		+ Break her emotional guard by talking about an obsession of her.
			- If it fails, raise favor to 60 and try again if it fails.
			- You don't need to know about several obsessions of her, just one will do
			- This can't succeed without 14 or more Social skill level, regardless of your other skills and attributes.
		+ Raise her favor to at least 70
		+ Gift her the Talisman Paper
		+ She will **drop the Law on the ground**, pick it up

In the second case, if you leave the sect map without having picked up the law it will not be obtainable anymore without a Mod like MODModifier.

The highest possible Law Matching value with capped stats and without any Undefined Law Matching Bonus for Primordial Symbols Law is 165%.

## General

Primordial Symbols Law gets most of its power from the chosen Natal Talismans, which give it a range of bonuses others laws can't compete with. As it is possible to inscribe several versions of a "fake" Talisman and a real one, one can get up to 6 times the same bonus. The power of the natal talismans also depend on the Max Qi of the cultivator.

The law has a relatively long cultivation time, provided you don't inscribe a Talisman of Oblivion Comprehension as Natal. It however gets most of its power fairly early, as it receives everything besides the Demi-God bonus and the last Natal Talisman with 260,400 cultivation EXP, on par with the fastest laws.

You can refer to the list of talismans to get an idea of the possible builds. Here are some suggestions of very powerful and commonly used talismans:

* Impermanence Talisman: +6% base Alchemy Yield Bonus (`AddV`), 5 fakes and 1 real talismans will give you the best alchemist.
* Heavenshrouding Talisman: -3 base Attainment Bonus (`AddV`), for an extremely cost-effective cultivator (easily surpassing Jade Purity Immortal Law's Meticulous Revision exclusive manuals)
* Spell power, base spell power, artifact power, base artifact power talismans

Obviously this is not a full list. Despite all its adaptability, Primordial Symbols law cultivators will struggle to be competitive Artifact wielders (until you can Sub-Spirit enough max artifacts) as they have no extra artifacts as exclusive manuals, and the law's None element deprives the cultivator of Artifact Elemental Compatibility. They are very competitive spellcasters however.

The law also has exclusive access to some of the most powerful talismans, making it a frequent early option for your first generation of cultivators. And for Sub-Spirits, their Soul-splitting Book of Eastwood line of exclusive manuals give up to 9 Subspirits (10 with the non-exclusive manuals).

Primordial Symbols Law has no mutually-exclusive manuals.

## Manual List

The Cultivation Level corresponds to the Manual requirement which may not correspond to the Inspiration Tree level. It is the one considered when learning from the Manual Pavilion.

## Cultivation

### Feng Shui

One benefit of the Law, since it has no Element, is that its Cultivation and Golden Core Breakthrough aren't restricted by Season, Weather or surrounding Gather Qi items' Elements. However, this is also a disadvantage, as they cannot benefit from them either, being restricted to ++ from Weather for example.

### Natal Talismans

At five stages during Cultivation, you draw special Natal Talismans on your soul with with Qi instead of ink. These are permanent increases to the Cultivator's traits/stats, that do not take up a Talisman slot and cannot be swapped out. They make Primordial Symbols Cultivators powerful and versatile.

#### Effect

You can significantly increase their effect by greatly increasing the Qi cost when drawing them.

## Early Adoption

If focused on, it's possible to get the Primordial Symbols Law before any other, before your spirit pet appears, or even before the Mysterious Cultivator leaves.
