As soon as he entered the Thousand Talismans Hall, Wang Changsheng saw a large hall that was about an acre in size.
The hall was bright and spacious. There was an extremely long counter made of precious blue radish wood. More than a dozen attendants in blue robes stood behind the counter. Forty to fifty cultivators gathered in front of the counter and were talking to the attendants behind the counter.
"Martial Uncle Wang, the first floor of the Thousand Talismans Hall sells all kinds of low-level talismans. They mainly rely on mid-level talismans to attract customers. In addition, the discount of five spirit stones for a full hundred spirit stones is also very attractive," Li Yang explained.
Wang Changsheng nodded. Suddenly, his expression changed and he walked towards a counter. Li Yang hurriedly followed him.
There were two Qi Refining cultivators at the counter. One of them was holding a blue jade pendant.
The blue jade pendant was engraved with a few worm-shaped talisman characters. Apart from that, there was nothing special about it. There was no magic power fluctuation.
"Can you make it a bit cheaper? One hundred spirit stones for a Water Mirror Jade Talisman is too expensive," the Qi Refining cultivator holding the blue jade pendant bargained.
"Fellow Daoist, this price is already very cheap. The Water Mirror Jade Talisman can record everything within a radius of three hundred feet. Although it only lasts for a quarter of an hour, it is enough to record a battle. Only the talisman masters of our Shui Ying Sect can draw this talisman. Other shops don't have it. If you don't believe me, you can go to the Heavenly Talisman Pavilion and take a look. If the Heavenly Talisman Pavilion doesn't have it, you can come back and buy it later," the blue-robed woman behind the counter said with a smile.
"Alright!" The Qi Refining cultivator nodded and put down the blue jade pendant. He then turned around and left with his companion.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Changsheng took two steps forward and pointed at the blue jade pendant on the counter. He asked, "Can this Water Mirror Jade Talisman really record the battle?"
"Yes, Senior. However, the furthest recording distance is three hundred feet. The image beyond that distance is a bit blurry. This talisman has no defensive properties. If it is affected by the battle, it will be easily destroyed. Therefore, the Water Mirror Jade Talisman is generally used to record the appearance of demonic beasts. The Water Mirror Jade Talisman that records information about demonic beasts can be sold to other shops for a profit. We are also willing to pay a high price for this kind of Water Mirror Jade Talisman," the blue-robed woman said in a neither servile nor overbearing tone.
"It can also record voices? Will there be mana fluctuations during the recording? "Wang Changsheng continued to ask.
"It's possible under normal circumstances. There will definitely be mana fluctuations during the recording. However, the fluctuations are relatively small. If one doesn't observe carefully, they won't be able to discover it."
"Okay, give me two Water Mirror Jade Talismans," Wang Changsheng thought for a moment and ordered.
After paying the spirit stones, Wang Changsheng instructed Li Yang to stay on the first floor and walked towards the stairs leading to the second floor.
On the second floor, Wang Changsheng saw a middle-aged man in his early thirties drinking tea and chatting with an ordinary-looking middle-aged woman with a hot body.
When the middle-aged woman saw Wang Changsheng walking over, she stood up and bid farewell to the middle-aged man. "Fellow Daoist Song, it seems that business is here. I'll take my leave first. Let's chat over tea some other day."
"Fellow Daoist Li, don't worry. I'll definitely draw the talismans you want in three days. Just come and get them then," the middle-aged man said with a smile.
The middle-aged woman nodded and walked towards the stairs in large strides.
"I'm the shopkeeper of the Thousand Talisman Hall, Song Hua. How should I address you?" The middle-aged man cupped his hands and greeted him with a smile.
"Wang Bin," Wang Changsheng gave a fake name and lightly said.
"So it's Wang Daoyou. Wang Daoyou, is this your first time in our shop?" The middle-aged man led Wang Changsheng to sit down and politely asked.
"This is indeed my first time in your shop. I hope you can come up with talismans that will satisfy me," Wang Changsheng lightly said.
"Hehe, Fellow Daoist, you've made the right choice by coming to our shop. Our shop will definitely satisfy Wang Daoyou," the middle-aged man said confidently. Then he suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, may I know if Wang Daoyou wants to buy talismans or custom-make talismans? If you want to order a talisman, the total cost must be no less than five thousand spirit stones. Moreover, you must pay half of the total amount as a deposit. Of course, if you can't deliver the goods on time, our shop will pay you three times the deposit."
"May I know what middle-level talismans are for sale in your shop?" Wang Changsheng calmly asked.
"Our shop has Firebird Talisman, Golden Silk Talisman, Thousand Blades Talisman, and Water Shadow Talisman." The middle-aged man faintly smiled and listed more than a dozen middle-level talismans.
"Water Shadow Talisman? What kind of talisman is that? What's the use of it? "Wang Changsheng was slightly surprised and asked curiously.
Wang Changsheng was born in the Mysterious Talisman Branch, and what he learned was also the talisman technique. There were many kinds of talismans that he didn't know how to draw, but he had heard of most of them. However, it was the first time that he had heard of a middle-level talisman like the Water Shadow Talisman.
"The Water Shadow Talisman is a middle-level illusion talisman, which can only be used by cultivators in the Foundation Building Stage. Unless one's Divine Sense is extremely powerful, it's very difficult to see through the illusion created by the illusion talisman. This kind of talisman can only be drawn by the talisman masters in our Shuiying Sect. Other talisman masters can't draw it." In the end, the middle-aged man's face showed a trace of complacency.
"Illusion talisman?" Wang Changsheng's eyes flashed with a touch of surprise.
He had read about the illusion talisman in the ancient books in the sect. Compared with other spells, the illusion talisman was extremely mysterious in the Immortal Cultivation World. No matter how high the cultivation level of the cultivator was, it could be deceived by the illusion talisman. The illusion talisman was the product of the combination of illusion and talisman, and the difficulty of drawing it was no less than that of the array talisman.
Unfortunately, Wang Changsheng looked up a lot of ancient books and didn't find a way to draw the illusion talisman. Later, he couldn't help but ask his master, Zhao Qingshan, why there was no way to draw the illusion talisman in the sect.
In the Immortal Cultivation World, some special talismans with incredible magical powers were called secret talismans.
These secret talismans were difficult to classify, and often each sect had a unique refining method. It was difficult for others to imitate it.
The Taiqing Palace had a long history, and there were countless talisman books, but only the talisman soldiers and array talismans could be called unique secret talismans. Except for the talisman masters in the Taiqing Palace, very few outsiders knew how to draw talisman soldiers and array talismans.
For the same reason, the illusion talisman was the unique secret talisman of the Shui Ying Sect. Except for the talisman masters of the Shui Ying Sect, it was almost impossible for other talisman masters to draw it.
Every sect had a strict confidentiality mechanism for their unique secret talisman, and it was almost impossible for outsiders to learn it. Even if an outsider learned their unique secret talisman, the sect would kill the outsider who knew their secret talisman at all costs. They would never allow their unique secret talisman to be spread out.
When he left the sect to practice, Wang Changsheng went to several large markets, but he didn't see any illusion talisman for sale. Now that he saw it, he naturally wouldn't let it go.
"How much is one Water Shadow Talisman?" Wang Changsheng's eyes flashed, and he asked with some interest.
"One thousand five hundred spirit stones, but since Wang Daoyou came to our shop for the first time, you only need to pay one thousand four hundred spirit stones. What do you think, Wang Daoyou?" The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.
Hearing this, Wang Changsheng frowned. He didn't expect the price of one Water Shadow Talisman to be as high as one thousand five hundred spirit stones. Although it was a discount of one hundred spirit stones, one thousand four hundred spirit stones was still a very terrifying price. One thousand four hundred spirit stones could buy a talisman treasure in the Song Dynasty.
"Okay! Give me two. "Wang Changsheng thought for a while, and finally bought two. The Water Shadow Talisman was a little expensive, but it was still within the range of his affordability.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man smiled slightly. He gently touched a string of blue beads on his left wrist, and a foot-long yellow wooden box appeared in his hand.
Seeing this scene, Wang Changsheng's eyes flashed with a touch of surprise, but he didn't say anything.
After receiving the wooden box, Wang Changsheng opened it and looked inside. There were two foot-long blue talismans.
The talismans were covered with dense blue magic characters. The magic characters were faintly discernible, and it was quite mysterious.
Wang Changsheng held the two Water Shadow Talismans in the palm of his hand and carefully observed them. He had a look of fondness on his face. After a while, he put the two Water Shadow Talismans back into the wooden box, and said, "I want these two Water Shadow Talismans. Fellow Song, check these spirit stones to see if the number is correct."
After saying this, Wang Changsheng took off a storage bag from his waist and poured it on the tea table. In the blink of an eye, there was a pile of colorful spirit stones on the table.
The middle-aged man glanced at the pile of spirit stones on the table. After a while, he nodded, stretched out his right hand, and gently shook it. The string of white beads on his right hand glowed with white light, and covered the spirit stones on the table. The pile of spirit stones quickly shrank. After shrinking to a certain extent, they were sucked into one of the white beads by the white light.
Wang Changsheng's eyes flashed with a touch of surprise again, but he didn't say anything. He put the wooden box containing the Water Shadow Talismans into his storage bag, and left.
On the first floor, Wang Changsheng described the string of beads on the middle-aged man's hand to Li Yang. He wanted to know what the string of beads on the middle-aged man's hand was.
"Uncle, that string of beads is actually a string of storage magic tools. Each bead is a storage magic tool, and the space is about the same as a hundred times storage bag. It's just that the storage beads are put together so that it's more convenient to take things out. Only the shopkeepers of those shops would wear this kind of magic tool string of beads," Li Yang explained word by word.
"Putting multiple storage beads together, not bad." Wang Changsheng heard this and couldn't help but praise. Then he said, "By the way, do you know where to buy this kind of storage bead? Take me there. "
There were eight storage bags hanging on Wang Changsheng's waist. Each storage bag contained different things. Some were for elixirs, some were for making talismans, and some were for attacking talismans. Although each storage bag was different in color, Wang Changsheng sometimes confused them. After seeing the storage beads on the middle-aged man's hand, he was tempted.
