Hearing this, Wang Changsheng's face lit up. This Junior Brother Song from the Divine Pill Division had a stronger Spiritual Sense than the average Qi Condensation Stage cultivator. He had helped the team avoid danger many times. If he reached the Qi Condensation Great Circle, his Spiritual Sense would not be weaker than that of an average Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator. [Latest Chapter Reading …]
Wang Xuan chatted with Wang Changsheng for a while before leaving.
Wang Changsheng closed the door and activated the restriction. After calming himself down, he continued to draw the Firebird Talisman.
In a room of an inn in the market, a short and stout grey-robed old man was sitting at a table. A man and a woman were standing in front of him with respectful expressions on their faces. A ten-feet-wide green shield had enveloped the three of them inside.
The man was in his thirties and had a scholarly appearance. He was Zhou Zheng. The woman wore a black dress and had ordinary facial features. She was in her twenties.
"Did you send the item? Did he suspect anything?" The old man in grey robes looked at Zhou Zheng and asked in a low voice.
"No," Zhou Zheng shook his head, but then thought of something. He hesitated and said, "Master, this is the territory of the Taiqing Palace. Moreover, the Taiqing Palace also sent a group of disciples to guard the market. According to my information, there is a Core Formation Stage cultivator among them. Let's not do anything to him."
"Core Formation Stage cultivator?" The old man in grey robes heard this and frowned. Then he sneered and said, "After we finish this job, we will leave this place immediately. So what if he is a Core Formation Stage cultivator? Could it be that you regret it and want to tell on him?" At the end of his words, a cold light flashed in the old man's eyes.
"I wouldn't dare. If it weren't for Master, I would have been killed a long time ago. I wouldn't have turned from a scholar into a cultivator. Master has given me a new lease of life. I would never betray Master," Zhou Zheng hurriedly explained. His expression was extremely frightened.
"Father, Senior Brother is thinking for us. With my understanding of Senior Brother, he would never betray you," the woman in black begged.
"Hmph, I won't dare. Alright, I have something to discuss with Rong 'er. You can leave first." When the grey-clothed old man saw this, he snorted lightly and waved his hand as he instructed. After he finished speaking, the green barrier disappeared.
"Yes, Master." Zhou Zheng nodded and bowed. He then turned and left, closing the door behind him.
As soon as Zhou Zheng left, the grey-robed old man waved his hand and a green shield protected the two of them.
"Father, why do you always give Senior Brother that attitude?" The woman in black said with some dissatisfaction.
"Hmph, you only know how to protect him. If it weren't for you liking this brat, I wouldn't have saved him back then, let alone teach him cultivation. Furthermore, do you think I asked him to tamper with the Spiritual Grass for my own sake?" The grey-robed old man frowned as he spoke.
"If it's not for you, do you think it's for me?" The woman in the black dress retorted with a pout.
"A market square in Fengdu County of Feng Province is going to hold an auction. There will be a Foundation Establishment Pill in it. If I can get the valuables of those disciples of the Taiqing Palace, I will definitely get a Foundation Establishment Pill for you. When you succeed in reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage, I will host the wedding ceremony for you two," the grey-robed old man said with a kind face.
"Foundation Establishment Pill? That's great, I know that Father is the best. "When the woman in black heard this, her eyes revealed a touch of surprise, followed by ecstasy. For a rogue cultivator like her, the Foundation Establishment Pill was an irresistible temptation.
Foundation Establishment Pills were generally in the hands of Cultivation Sects or Cultivation Clans. Occasionally, a Foundation Establishment Pill would be sold at an auction. Each pill could be sold at a sky-high price.
"Alright, your Senior Brother sprinkled some Thousand Miles Incense on the Spiritual Grass. When the Symbol Master examines the Spiritual Grass, he will get a little bit. But just in case, you sprinkle some Thousand Miles Incense on the other three people. Try not to arouse their suspicion." The grey-robed old man pondered for a moment and commanded.
"Understood, Father." The woman in black nodded and complied.
Wang Changsheng had no idea that he had been targeted by a Foundation Establishment cultivator. After seeing off Wang Xuan, he didn't leave the courtyard.
For three days in a row, he stayed in the courtyard and drew the Firebird Charm. After failing over a hundred times, he drew another Firebird Charm. However, he also used up all of his Medium Grade Charm Papers.
In desperation, Wang Changsheng could only make Medium Grade Charm Papers himself.
Wang Changsheng patted the storage pouch on his waist and a palm-sized red cauldron flew out. After a blur, it grew to a meter tall and steadily landed in the courtyard.
This was a Top Grade Charm Furnace. Wang Changsheng had spent a large amount of Contribution Points to exchange for it from the Duty Tower.
This Charm Furnace had an exquisite design. Nine fist-sized dragon heads were engraved on top of the Charm Furnace. The dragon heads were slightly tilted downwards.
He then took out a storage pouch from his bosom. The opening of the pouch fell down, and a large pile of items spouted out from the pouch. There were several wooden boxes, ores, demonic beast claws, bones, and several pieces of black wood.
Wang Changsheng placed a piece of black wood under the Charm Furnace and casually threw out a Charm Seal. A red light flashed and a red fireball flew towards the wood.
With a "Pu" sound, the fireball pounced on the wood and exploded. As soon as the black wood came into contact with the flame, it immediately burned fiercely. The surging flames immediately wrapped around the bottom of the Charm Furnace.
This type of wood was called Black Sun Wood. It was very resistant to burning and was a refining material. However, Wang Changsheng used it to make a fire and provide heat for the Charm Furnace.
If he used magic to provide heat for the Charm Furnace, it would consume too much magic power. Anyway, one kilogram of Black Sun Wood only cost ten Spirit Stones. It was enough for him to use several times.
Wang Changsheng waited until the Charm Fire Furnace was burning red. Then, he opened the wooden box on the ground. He took out a few stalks of hundred-year-old Spirit Herbs that he had obtained a few days ago and threw them into the Charm Fire Furnace. He also poured in the ores, demon beast claws, bones, and other materials.
After a while, the flame under the Charm Furnace was extinguished.
Wang Changsheng took out several square molds and placed them around the Charm Furnace. Then, he cast a spell on top of the Charm Furnace.
An astonishing scene appeared. Some viscous red liquid flowed out of the dragon heads' mouths and fell into the square molds below.
Wang Changsheng put aside one of the molds that was filled with the red liquid. Then, he quickly took out another mold and placed it in its original position.
After half an incense stick's time, Wang Changsheng's face was full of sweat. There were many square molds around him. These molds were empty. However, there was a thick stack of red Charm Papers on the table. There were dozens of them.
Wang Changsheng rested for a while. After wiping the sweat on his face, he took out a batch of Spirit Herbs and ores and continued to refine blank Charm Papers.
Two hours later, Wang Changsheng was exhausted and lying on the ground. He was gasping for breath. On the table, there were hundreds of Charm Papers of various colors.
The red talisman paper that was refined from Spiritual Grass that contained Fire Spirit Qi was naturally the best choice for drawing Fire Attribute Talisman Seals. The talisman paper was refined from Spiritual Grass that contained Earth Spirit Qi, so it was the best choice for refining Earth Attribute Talisman Seals. The power of the Talisman Seals drawn by this method would be greater. Of course, the talisman paper was universal. Any kind of Talisman Seal could be drawn on the talisman paper, and it was up to the Talisman Master to decide.
The Charm Papers in the market were all refined from Spirit Herbs of different attributes. The Charm Papers refined in this way were very inclusive and could be used to draw any kind of Charm Papers. However, the power of the Charm Papers was mediocre.
Ever since Wang Changsheng saw this in a certain Martial Uncle's talisman crafting experience, he consciously divided the talisman paper according to different attributes. After his experiments, it was indeed as this Martial Uncle had said. The Fire Dragon Talisman was also a Fire Dragon Talisman, but the Fire Serpent Talisman paper that was refined from Fire Spirit Grass was a bit more powerful than the Fire Serpent Talisman paper drawn from other talisman papers.
After refining hundreds of Intermediate Charm Papers, Wang Changsheng had used up all the Hundred Years Spirit Herbs. If he wanted to increase the success rate of drawing the Fire Bird Charm, he would need a large number of blank Charm Papers.
After resting for a while, Wang Changsheng put the Charm Fire Furnace and the Intermediate Charm Papers on the table into his storage bag. He went back to his room and changed his clothes. Then, he pushed the door open and walked out.
The Hundred Herbs Building was the largest Elixir Store in the Hundred Spirits Market. In addition to selling all kinds of Spirit Pills, they also sold Spirit Herbs. There were many Spirit Herbs that were more than a hundred years old. Of course, the price was not cheap.
Liu San was an attendant of the Hundred Herbs Building. Although he was also a cultivator, he was only at the fifth level of Qi Refining. He was only responsible for recommending Spirit Herbs to the customers. If the transaction was successful, he would get a commission. He was much better off than those rogue cultivators who went deep into the mountains to hunt monsters.
"Customer, take care." Liu San smiled as he sent a middle-aged man out of the door. Just as he was about to go back, he saw a cultivator wearing a black cloak walk in.
Because of the black cloak, Liu San could not see the person's face clearly. However, this person did not hide his aura. With one look, he knew that this person was a Qi Refining Stage Ten expert.
When some customers came to buy things, they would wear a cloak or a mask. Liu San, who had worked in the Hundred Herbs Building for many years, was not surprised.
He quickly squeezed out a smile and quickly walked up to greet him. He said, "Welcome to the Hundred Herbs Building. How can I help you?"
"I have some Spirit Herbs. Hmm, Spirit Herbs that are more than a hundred years old. The more the better." A man's voice came from behind the cloak.
When Liu San heard this, he was slightly startled at first. Then, he revealed a look of ecstasy. He knew that he must have met a big client. Therefore, he hurriedly said, "I can't make this decision. Please follow me."
"Lead the way."
Liu San nodded and personally led him to the VIP room on the second floor.
The second floor wasn't very big. There were only a few tables and chairs. A fat middle-aged man was sitting beside a wooden table. There were a few books on the table. The middle-aged man was holding a yellow abacus in his hand. He was calculating something.
"Shopkeeper, this customer wants to buy some Spirit Herbs that are more than a hundred years old." Liu San walked up and said to the middle-aged man with a respectful expression.
"I know. You can leave!" The middle-aged man glanced at the cloaked cultivator and nodded.
When Liu San heard this, he turned and left.
"I am the shopkeeper of the Hundred Herbs Building, Zhao Xin. How may I address you?" The middle-aged man put away the books and abacus and greeted him with a smile.
"Bai Xing." The cloaked cultivator said lightly. The cloaked cultivator was none other than Wang Changsheng.
Before he started learning how to draw middle-level talismans, Wang Changsheng spent more than ten thousand Spirit Stones to buy a large number of hundred years old Spirit Herbs in Tai Qing City Square. However, as time passed, these Spirit Herbs were gradually used up. Bai Ling City Square was very far from Tai Qing City Square. He planned to buy some from Bai Ling City Square and buy some from Tai Qing City Square when he returned to the sect.
"So it's Brother Bai. Brother Bai, please take a seat." Zhao Xin nodded and led Wang Changsheng to the table.
"I won't say much. I need a batch of hundred years old Spirit Herbs for alchemy. If your building has any hundred years old Spirit Herbs, take them all out!" Wang Changsheng said lightly. He forged the identity of an alchemist for himself. There were several kinds of elixirs for Qi Refining Stage cultivators that needed to be refined with hundred years old Spirit Herbs. It was reasonable for him to say so.
"It turns out that Brother Bai is also an alchemist. Sorry for the disrespect. I happen to have some hundred years old Spirit Herbs. I don't know if Brother Bai is satisfied." Zhao Xin's eyes flashed a touch of surprise when he heard that. After he finished speaking, he took out a storage bag from his arms and waved it on the table. With a flash of light, several wooden boxes appeared on the table.
Wang Changsheng did not stand on ceremony. He opened these wooden boxes one by one and carefully checked them. He said, "Yes, these Spirit Herbs are all a hundred years old. However, your building has more than these! Shopkeeper Zhao, why don't you take out all of your hundred-year-old spirit herbs? This Bai won't hesitate to accept them. "Finished speaking, he took out a storage pouch and emptied it. A pile of colorful spirit stones appeared on the floor.
Seeing this, Zhao Xin's eyes flashed with a touch of surprise. There were at least thousands of spirit stones on the floor, which was enough to buy a few hundred years old spirit herbs on the table. It seemed that this cultivator surnamed Bai in front of him was quite rich.
Thinking of this, the smile on Zhao Xin's face deepened. He opened his mouth and said, "Since Brother Bai has said so, this one will not continue to hide it." After saying this, he took out several dozen wooden boxes from his storage pouch and placed them on the table.
