Jiang Wulin's request was very simple. If Ye Kong was able to make talismans, then he would sell them at his stall. For each talisman, he would take one spirit stone as a labor fee. Of course, from then on, if Ye Kong needed blank talisman papers, he could get them directly from him, free of charge.
Ye Kong thought it was fine. After all, it took time for him to draw. If someone was willing to sell it for him, then he wouldn't need to set up his stall.
He immediately nodded and said, "Okay, it's settled then. I'll go back and make talismans first."
After Ye Kong told Jiang Wulin the room number, he hurriedly returned to the rented house. Just as he was about to set up a formation to create a talisman, he heard someone knocking on the door. It was a crisp female voice from outside.
"Fellow Daoist, let's meet when we have time. I live next door, can we get to know each other?"
"Get to know each other?" Ye Kong muttered to himself, then laughed and said to himself, "Could it be that it's the same as the hotel in my hometown, coming here to add a blanket?"
Ye Kong's words made Ancestor Acheron confused, "Add a quilt? Cultivators don't sleep, why would they need a quilt? "
Ye Kong opened the door and saw a female cultivator standing outside. Her appearance was quite attractive, pretty, and delicate.
Such a woman, good men would want to spoil her, and bad men would want to do violence to her. In short, she was a good woman.
Ye Kong scanned her cultivation level. Qi Refining Level 6, three levels higher than him. Such a woman, and a cultivator, was called a fairy in the mortal world.
Eh, fairies were also for sale?
"Fellow Daoist, what brings you here?" Ye Kong didn't quite believe that such a female cultivator was here to sell her body.
"Oh, I live next door. Just now, I heard a loud noise from your side. It scared me." The female cultivator patted her chest as if she was startled. There were two snow-capped mountains, incomparably towering.
"Oh, yes. En, I saw a mouse and threw a fireball spell." Ye Kong would not tell the truth to this woman. He was trying to guess this woman's identity. If he were to say that she was selling clothes, she was wearing very tight clothes and did not reveal anything. However, her actions and gaze were somewhat frivolous.
"Oh." The female cultivator clapped a few times before smiling and saying, "Nice to meet you. I'm Lu Ruyun from Qing Ming Valley. How should I address you, Little Dao Brother?"
"I am Xia Hui from the Bone Spirit Sect." Ye Kong also nodded politely. Up until now, he still hadn't invited a woman into his room. His goal was to craft talismans, and he didn't have the mood to do such things. Moreover, he didn't have the Spirit Stones to fool around with women.
Seeing that Ye Kong was not interested in her, Lu Ruyun pointed to the house and said with a smile, "Yo, your house is bigger than mine …"
As she spoke, she wanted to enter without being invited, but Ye Kong wasn't in the mood to talk nonsense with her. He blocked the door and said with a smile, "Big Sister Lu, I'm only in the third layer of the Aura Refining realm, and I'm very poor. Of course, I can only stay in this low-end room."
Ye Kong made it clear: "I'm very poor, so don't even think about it."
Lu Ruyun was also a sensible person. She immediately smiled and said, "Actually, Big Sister is also very poor. I also live in a low-end room." With that said, she threw a coquettish glance at Ye Kong and walked next door while swaying her slim waist.
After closing the door and returning to the house, Ye Kong asked doubtfully, "I'm just a poor man in the third layer of the Aura Refining realm. Will there be a woman who will like me? If I let her in … En, I've never fooled around with a female cultivator before. I wonder what it's like. "
Ancestor Acheron scolded, "Little wretch, wake up. If she sees that you're poor and still wants to come in, then she's not after your money. Since she's not after your money, then it's scary. Do you think that female cultivators are all fools?"
Ye Kong stuck out his tongue and nodded. "Maybe it's some kind of evil technique that absorbs people's power!"
"It's very possible!"
On the path of cultivation, there were traps everywhere. If one was not careful, he would be consigned to eternal damnation. Ye Kong thought for a while and nodded. He then busied himself with his own matters.
According to the book on basic formations, he set up a Spirit Cultivator Sitting Formation. This formation was actually quite simple. He just needed to place the formation disk in the middle, set the formation flags in a fixed position, and put in spirit stones.
Then, Ye Kong began to make talismans. All the steps were the same as before.
"Boom!" Before he finished drawing the talisman, it turned into a ball of flame and burned until nothing was left.
"The authentic talisman paper also failed." Ye Kong was not dejected. He took out another talisman paper and continued to work hard.
He drew three talismans in a row, but still failed.
Ancestor Acheron sighed. "Now you know how difficult it is for those famous sects to cultivate a talisman drawing master. Therefore, I advise you not to study this art. The investment in this art is not something a rogue cultivator like you can afford!"
Ye Kong felt depressed. My mind is just a talisman book. Apart from studying this, what else can I study?
Although the success rate of making talismans was low, Ye Kong's previous experience in drawing talismans was very mature. Moreover, he had tried drawing the various routes and structures of the talismans countless times at home. Therefore, he already had a plan in mind.
Therefore, his success rate was much higher than those who came into contact with talisman making for the first time.
"Success!" The fourth talisman was finally made.
"You succeeded on the fourth one?" Ancestor Acheron was still a little skeptical. However, holding the talisman that glowed with silver light and had faint spirit qi fluctuations, he had no choice but to believe in his success.
"You can't be a fake product like that baldy, right?" Ancestor Acheron held the talisman and looked at it from left to right.
"Generally speaking, it's impossible." Ye Kong thought about his route structure and the amount of spirit qi he used. He felt that it was impossible.
"Impossible. The power of this Thunder Fire Incantation is definitely the same as the authentic Thunder Fire Incantation," Ye Kong said with certainty.
"Why don't we go out and find a place to try it?" Ancestor Acheron said with a smirk.
"No!" Ye Kong shouted. He was so poor now that he hoped to sell this talisman for some money. As for the effect, it was not his concern. Anyway, he did not want to use it himself.
"Since you succeeded, then continue to draw. If you draw 80 or 100 a day, won't you be rich?" Ancestor Acheron urged again.
Ye Kong said angrily, "Do you think I don't need spirit qi? I drew five in a row, and my spirit qi has been used up. What's the point of drawing? " After saying that, he gritted his teeth and cursed, "Damn, if it wasn't for the Cloud Talisman Pavilion's fake product, I would have two successful ones!"
Ye Kong did not have spiritual force to continue making talismans, but Ancestor Acheron was eager to try. Then he picked up the brush that Ye Kong put down, only to find that he could not draw the Thunder Fire Incantation.
When making different kinds of talismans, the talisman maker injected different spirit qi into the brush.
When making this kind of Thunder Fire Incantation, it must be written with fire and metal Spiritual Qi. Ancestor Acheron was a triple-spiritual root with fire property but no metal property, so he could not draw it.
While Ancestor Acheron was depressed, he also realized the advantages of the penta-spiritual root. Like Ye Kong, who had a Full Attribute Spiritual Root, could he make any talisman?
The penta-spiritual root was the worst qualification in the Cultivation World. But because of the Five Elements Immortal Ascension Sutra and the comprehensive collection of talismans, it made Ancestor Acheron envious.
"Little brother, Little Ye, Little Kong." Ancestor Acheron's old face was full of smiles. "Can you teach me how to make talismans? That way, when I possess the penta-spiritual root, I can make all kinds of talismans. "
"Didn't you say that you don't need to learn talisman making even if you want to learn alchemy formations?" Ye Kong mocked him.
"That's because I didn't know that the penta-spiritual root was so suitable to be a talisman maker."
"Well, then you should perform the ceremony of apprenticeship."
Ancestor Acheron was a little angry. But thinking about it, talisman making was a very profound and mysterious knowledge. At the same time, it was also very popular. He did not know how many people wanted to learn it, so he just kowtowed.
In fact, Ye Kong just said it casually. Seeing that Ancestor Acheron was really going to kowtow to him, he hurried to stop him.
"Alas, Ancestor, why are you so honest today? You are not usually like this. I am just teasing you."
Ancestor Acheron also laughed. "Do you think I will kneel three times to you, a Qi Refinement cultivator? I am also teasing you."
"In that case, don't think about learning."
"If you don't teach, can't I see?"
As the two bickered, Ye Kong took out another talisman paper. He couldn't make the Thunder Fire Incantation because the metal attribute Spiritual Qi in his body was already very little. But he had abundant Spiritual Qi of other attributes, so it was not a problem to make other types of talismans.
"There doesn't seem to be any good low-grade talismans. Fireball Incantation, Ice Bullet Incantation, Golden Light Incantation, these are all trash." Ye Kong flipped through the Talisman Encyclopedia and was somewhat hesitant.
In fact, he already didn't want to make low-grade low-grade talismans. He had already opened many pages of low-grade mid-grade talismans. He wanted to draw those.
But he couldn't afford low-grade mid-grade blank talismans. He also didn't have low-grade mid-grade spirit herb seeds, so he could only give up for now.
"Ancestor, let's make a talisman for a spirit cultivator."
The talisman was very simple. Spirit Qi of any attribute would do. Moreover, Ye Kong also clearly remembered the stroke structure.
"Success!" What made Ye Kong excited was that the first talisman was made.
What made them even more excited was that Patriarch Yellow Spring had succeeded in drawing one as well.
"Yay!" Ancestor Acheron imitated Ye Kong's happy look in the past and made a V shape with his fingers. He never thought that he could make a talisman on his first try.
Then, they made the remaining six talisman papers into talismans. Except for Ancestor Acheron who scared himself and thought that he was right, the other five talismans were all successful!
"I'm rich!" Ye Kong looked at the several talismans on the table and couldn't stop smiling. He didn't expect the success rate of talismans to be so high.
In fact, this talisman array was the most basic of small arrays. Its level was one grade lower than low-grade talismans. Therefore, a talisman crafting master like Ye Kong, who was already very experienced, had a very high success rate in crafting this kind of talisman. As for the Old Ancestor of Hell, his success rate was also very high because he was in the Nascent Soul Stage.
"Let's go and sell them to Jiang Wulin." Ye Kong had already thought about it. Since talismans were so easy to make, he would make a batch of talismans first and make a lot of money. Then, he could practice other talismans with peace of mind.
