This was equivalent to a painting that had been passed down for hundreds of years. Not only was it well-preserved, but it was also made by a famous master of the previous generation. Naturally, it was priceless.
Shopkeeper Ma asked Shen Luo to wait for a moment while he went to the inner hall to prepare the immortal jades.
"Shopkeeper Ma, don't be in a hurry." Shen Luo stopped him after a moment of hesitation.
"Young Master Shen …" Shopkeeper Ma thought Shen Luo was going to go back on his word and became nervous.
"Don't be in a hurry to get the immortal jades. I want to buy a few more things. It won't be too late to get them after we've calculated the price," Shen Luo said with a smile.
Shopkeeper Ma's expression relaxed when he heard this. He smiled and asked if there was anything else he needed.
Shen Luo silently thought for a moment and then began to list out the spiritual materials one by one. "Green Phoenix Wood, Crimson Pearl Immortal Nectar, Moth Gold Powder, Iron Bone Holly …"
When Shopkeeper Ma heard Shen Luo say the first name, his eyebrows slightly twitched. However, the more he heard, the more serious his expression became. After hearing Shen Luo say more than ten names in one breath, he was already stunned in place.
These things were all used to make high-grade talismans such as Armor Breaking Talismans, Flight Talismans, and Thunder Falling Talismans. Every one of them was a precious high-level spiritual material.
"Shopkeeper Ma, I don't want all of these things. I just want to ask you, what do you have in your store?" Shen Luo hurriedly explained when he saw his expression.
"Young Master Shen, you really surprised me. Our Treasure Record Hall doesn't even have half of these things. There are even many that I've never even heard of." Shopkeeper Ma swallowed his saliva and said.
"What do you have?" Shen Luo quickly asked.
"Green Phoenix Wood, Iron Bone Holly, and Moth Gold Powder. There aren't many Mountain Piercing Thorns and Crimson Pearl Immortal Nectar. We don't have the rest." Shopkeeper Ma thought for a moment and replied.
Among them, except for the Mountain Piercing Thorns, which were used to make Armor Breaking Talismans, the other four were all used to make Flight Talismans. Among them, Green Phoenix Wood and Iron Bone Holly were the main materials and the other two were auxiliary materials.
Shen Luo was secretly delighted and quickly asked for the price of these spiritual materials.
"Azure Luan Wood is the most precious. Two of them cost one immortal jade. As for the Ironboned Holly, it's one immortal jade for ten stalks. As for the Stemborer Gold Powder and Crimson Pearl Immortal Nectar, it's one immortal jade per bottle. "Shopkeeper Ma said.
"Can I take a look at it?" Shen Luo's eyes scanned the hundred treasures grid and asked.
"It's not in the hundred treasures grid. Young Master Shen, please wait here for a moment. I'll go get it." Shopkeeper Ma turned around and walked into the inner hall.
After waiting for a while, he came out with a tray with a few things on it.
Shen Luo's eyes swept across the room, and he saw a pair of two-foot-long pieces of green wood placed on the leftmost side of the room. They were only as thick as a child's arm, and seemed to be shrouded in spiritual energy. They were covered in a thin layer of light, and didn't disperse.
On the right side of the wood, there were ten greenish-black tree branches. The branches were covered with small, oval leaves that glowed with a greenish-black light. They looked as if they were made of fine iron.
Further to the side were two inch-long white porcelain vases, one green and one white.
"In addition, I want to buy ten pieces of Purple Cloud Charm Paper and fifty pieces of Blue Frost Charm Paper. Also, do you have a charm furnace here? "Shen Luo thought for a moment and asked.
"Yes, yes. But, the quality isn't high. It can only be regarded as an ordinary craftsman's tool. It can't reach the level of a magic tool. Young Master Shen, if you want to use it to refine charm ink, you'd better use it with a few Blazing Fire Charms. The effect will be better. "Shopkeeper Ma's eyebrows relaxed as he said.
"How much is the Blazing Fire Charm?" Shen Luo asked.
"Although it's an offensive charm, its power is limited. So, it's not expensive either. You can buy it for fifty silver taels. How many pieces do you need?" Shopkeeper Ma asked.
"Let's buy ten pieces first." Shen Luo thought for a moment and said.
"Well, I'll prepare the goods for you." Shopkeeper Ma was overjoyed as he had made a big deal.
After everything was ready, Shen Luo checked the goods. A trace of surprise flashed through his eyes as he asked:
"How come there are seventy-two pieces of Blue Frost Charm Paper?"
"The Blue Frost Charm Paper is calculated according to one immortal jade for twelve pieces. In addition to the previous one, there are six pieces in total. So, there are seventy-two pieces. The Purple Cloud Charm Paper can't be discounted. It's worth ten immortal jades. The Blue Phoenix Wood and other spiritual materials are worth four immortal jades. So, it's worth twenty immortal jades. As for the other things, they're worth eight hundred silver taels altogether. "Shopkeeper Ma explained.
"Thank you, Shopkeeper Ma." Shen Luo cupped his fists and thanked him.
Shopkeeper Ma packed these things and put them in an exquisite wooden box. Then, he took out ten immortal jades and put them in a brocade bag. Then, he handed it to Shen Luo.
Shen Luo received it and paid the money. Then, he left.
Not long after he left, a beautiful girl came out of the inner hall. It was Ma Xiuxiu.
However, the moment Shopkeeper Ma saw his' daughter ', his expression suddenly became respectful and cautious.
The girl pinched the 'Soul Suppressing Golden Tablet' between her slender fingers. Then, she looked at it carefully. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed through her eyes.
"Elder Ma, you've underestimated the value of this thing. Next time, I'll compensate him with ten immortal jades." The girl said. Her tone was quite mature. She didn't look as timid as before.
"Young Master, thirty immortal jades are a lot. Could it be that I've misjudged it? This thing isn't the Soul Suppressing Golden Tablet?" Shopkeeper Ma changed the way he addressed her in the past. He was slightly surprised.
"You didn't misjudge it. You just underestimated its quality. The Soul Suppressing Charm on it is of a very high grade. It can calm the soul and eliminate evil karma. It can even help a thousand-year-old resentful ghost return to the underworld. It's a pity that although the appearance is complete, the spirit energy inside is less than ten percent. "The girl said with a little regret.
"This person can take out such a valuable thing. Could it be that his identity is extraordinary?" Shopkeeper Ma muttered.
"Looking at his aptitude and aura, he doesn't look like a disciple of a big immortal sect. Most likely, he had a fortuitous encounter. You've seen the things he bought. They're all required to refine high-grade charm charms. Have you ever thought that he's just a guest of the Bai Mansion? How can he come into contact with these things? "The girl muttered.
"This …" Shopkeeper Ma was at a loss for words as he heard this.
"Today's matter was just a spur of the moment thing. I thought that it would be fun. You don't have to care too much about it. Just maintain your current relationship with him. It won't be too late to make friends with him if he comes to us with high-grade charm charms to sell in the future. "The girl smiled and said in a casual manner.
"Yes," Shopkeeper Ma replied.
Shen Luo returned to his room in the Bai Mansion. He couldn't wait to study the charm charms.
He had learned five kinds of high-grade charm charms in the Fangcun Mountain. Only the materials for the Thunder Charm and the Flight Charm could be found for the time being. The Thunder Charm was only an alternative material.
In the beginning, he didn't use the newly bought charm paper to experiment. Instead, he used the ordinary yellow charm paper for practice. He unceasingly practiced the complicated writing of the two kinds of charm characters. He strived to familiarize himself with the operation of the brush strokes.
It was somewhat similar to the practice of martial arts. He had a successful experience in his dream when it came to drawing charm charms. Therefore, he was very clear about the key points of drawing. However, it was very difficult for him to combine his heart, eyes, and hands into one.
