Report

Ye Kong took seven array talismans and a Thunderfire Incantation, and put away the array flags before opening the door and coming out.

Immersed in crafting talismans in the house, he did not notice the time. When he came out, he realized that it was already night time.

The small building was already lit up, but it was different from the ordinary candlelight or oil lamps. Inside the lamp, there was actually a kind of fluorescent stone.

"When I leave this place, I must steal a piece of this stone. In the future, it can illuminate the dark places."

Ancestor Acheron could not help but scold him with a smile, "You are so poor that you are crazy. This kind of moonlight stone is not valuable at all! There is a Moonlight Mountain in the north of Cang Nan Continent, and it is filled with this kind of stone! "

Ye Kong sneered, "Come on, those are old records from 100,000 years ago. The prices of goods have changed."

"Even if it changes, trash is still trash."

The two bickered and walked out of the illusory array outside the small building. From afar, they saw that there were fewer people in the market square. Those who rented the stalls were unwilling to waste the last bit of time, and shouted loudly.

"All kinds of animal bones, spiritual grass seeds, for foundation strengthening elixir, Fortune Elixir, Yellow Dragon Elixir."

"Selling middle grade defensive artifact, Ancient Wood Shield, made of three thousand years old Black Stone Wood, only four hundred spiritual stones."

Ye Kong stuck out his tongue. It was true that defensive artifacts were more valuable than offensive artifacts. This middle grade small shield could be sold for four hundred spiritual stones. He did not know how much the Ink Shark Armor he was wearing could be sold for.

Passing through the shouting stall owners, they came to the front of Jiang Wulin's stall. That kid was buried in a book.

"What are you reading?" Ye Kong walked over.

"Hehe, the basics of talismans." Jiang Wulin blushed and put down the book.

Ye Kong's interest was piqued, and he asked, "Can I take a look?"

Jiang Wulin handed over the book and said with a smile, "I make blank talisman paper myself, so I wanted to learn how to make talismans. But the success rate is really too low."

"Oh, yes. What is the success rate of making a fireball talisman?" Ye Kong asked casually and took the book. He casually flipped through it and found that it introduced more than ten kinds of the lowest level talisman making methods, which were far inferior to the talismans in his mind.

Jiang Wulin smiled bitterly and said, "I once drew 200 pieces of talisman paper, but I did not succeed in drawing a useful talisman."

Ye Kong's eyes widened. "No way, the success rate is so low? Are other beginner talisman craftsmen like this too? "

"That's how it is. A Talisman Crafting Master is a money-burning profession. Even if you master the Fireball Incantation, you still have to practice the other Talismans from scratch." Jiang Wulin continued, "However, as long as you are proficient in one or two types of talismans, you won't have to worry about food and drink."

Ye Kong still didn't quite believe it. He felt that although the success rate of talisman crafting was low, it shouldn't be so low. Out of 200 talismans, not one was successful? This was too exaggerated.

Patriarch Acheron's voice resounded in his mind. "This kid is right. The success rate is indeed frighteningly low at the beginning. This is also the main reason why I didn't recommend you to craft talismans in the first place. You really can't afford the investment. Think about it, even his own family can't afford to make talismans, let alone a rogue cultivator like you."

Ye Kong was unconvinced and said, "If everyone is like this, then why am I an exception? I don't think the success rate is that low. "

"Who knows where you come from, monster?" Patriarch Acheron scolded and said, "The success rate of making talismans, I guess it depends on the perception and perception of Spiritual Qi. Although you are useless, you are very sensitive to Spiritual Qi. In addition, you have made a lot of talismans in the past, which improved your perception, so it is normal for you to have a higher success rate."

Ye Kong nodded. It seemed that it was because he came from Earth, which was lacking in Spiritual Qi. Otherwise, how could he have such a high success rate?

However, Ye Kong thought about it and felt that something was wrong. He asked, "Patriarch, your guess is reasonable, but you have never made talismans before. How did you succeed in drawing talismans?"

"You are so stupid!" Patriarch Acheron scolded again, "It is because of my perception and perception. I am a Yuanying Realm cultivator, so of course my perception of Spiritual Qi is stronger than the average person. Moreover, that talisman is of such a low level. Do you really think that the Yuanying Patriarch is inferior to you?"

"Oh, oh, oh." Ye Kong nodded. It seemed that a high realm was also helpful in making talismans. It was not difficult for the Yuanying Patriarch to make such low-grade, low-level talismans.

But then again, which Yuanying Patriarch had nothing better to do and would make low-grade, low-level talismans?

Jiang Wulin saw that Ye Kong was suddenly in a daze. He was a little puzzled and looked at Ye Kong before asking, "Brother Xia, I wonder if you are proficient in making talismans?"

"Oh." Ye Kong ignored Patriarch Acheron and came back to his senses.

However, the other party's question was a little difficult to answer. He was not proficient in making talismans. His goal was to be a Talisman Master of all the five elements of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. He wanted to be proficient in making all kinds of talismans.

"Uh … I can draw anything."

Ye Kong's awkward answer made Jiang Wulin despise him. Originally, he did not expect this Qi Refining Stage 3 to be able to make any powerful talismans. The reason why he wanted to win over Ye Kong was because he hoped that Ye Kong would buy blank talismans from him in the future.

Of course, if Ye Kong could really make one or two Golden Fireball Incantation Talismans, he would also be very happy to sell them. In any case, he had nothing better to do.

"Then little friend Xia, how many talismans did you casually draw this afternoon?" Jiang Wulin asked with a smile.

"Hehe." Ye Kong laughed. He patted his storage bag and took out a brand new talisman.

"You really succeeded. Little friend Xia, you are really good." Jiang Wulin was a little surprised. To be able to succeed with one out of twelve blank talismans was already quite surprising for him.

Calculating from the cost, a dozen talismans cost one spirit stone. A successful low-grade talisman would normally cost ten spirit stones. That was a net profit of nine spirit stones!

"This is an array talisman. A spirit cultivator will be in charge of the array."

Jiang Wulin was shocked. "Array talisman? I have never seen an array talisman before! "

He held the array talisman and looked left and right, looking at it endlessly. One must know that the array talisman that Ye Kong obtained from Fan Jiushe was left behind by a cultivator from 100,000 years ago.

Nowadays, there were very few records of array talismans. Only a few people knew how to make them. Therefore, this array talisman was definitely a rare item.

However, after Jiang Wulin was excited, he shook his head and said with a smile, "Little friend Xia, although this array talisman is rare, it is not worth much."

"Why?"

"Think about it. A set of basic array discs and array flags is only two spirit stones. Moreover, it can be reused many times. Who would spend ten spirit stones to buy your one-time use array talisman?"

"Is there anyone who doesn't know how to set up an array?" Ye Kong said.

Jiang Wulin laughed. "Ask around this square. How many spirit cultivators don't know how to set up an array talisman? Even those who have just started cultivating don't know how to set it up. However, books on basic array formations are everywhere. If they have the money to spend ten spirit stones to buy an array talisman, they might as well spend two spirit stones to buy a book. There are more than ten types of array formations in it."

"Uh … I just bought one." Ye Kong was stunned. He thought that he had made a fortune. It turned out that it was all for naught. This array talisman seemed to be a bit useless.

Jiang Wulin put the array talisman on the stall and said, "But it's okay. You won't lose anything. This array talisman will be sold for two spirit stones. After all, it is a rare item. There should be people who will buy it." Jiang Wulin thought about it. Originally, he said that he would get a commission. Forget it.

The other party spent one spirit stone as capital and only earned one spirit stone. If he got a commission, then he would have done it for nothing.

Forget it. I'll help him sell it. As long as the spirit stones he earns are from me, I'll buy blank talisman papers.

But who knew, Ye Kong said 'okay' and actually took out a stack of array talismans.

"You actually succeeded so many with a dozen blank talisman papers!" Jiang Wulin's eyes almost fell out.

My God! I drew two hundred talismans and didn't succeed in one. He drew twelve and succeeded in seven! This is too unreasonable. He is just a little cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage 3!

But what surprised him even more was what happened next.

"A total of eight successful talismans. I still have a Thunder Fire Talisman."

"Thunder Talisman!" Jiang Wulin's jaw also fell to the ground.

Among all the series, the most powerful talisman was none other than the Thunder Fire Talisman. And to make Thunder Talisman, it was best to use a cultivator with Thunder Spirit Root. Thunder Spirit Root was not an ordinary Spirit Root. It was a variant Spirit Root. In each of the major Immortal Cultivation Sects, it was raised as the successor!

"Little friend Xia, do you have Thunder Spirit Root?" Jiang Wulin's voice trembled.

"Nope." Ye Kong hurriedly shook his head, "I happen to have Metal Spirit Root and Fire Spirit Root. Actually, my Spirit Root is very messy."

"Oh." Jiang Wulin calmed down. How could there be so many variant Spirit Roots?

But then he thought that if one did not have Thunder Spirit Root, then the success rate of making Thunder Talisman must be very low. But this kid succeeded in one out of a dozen talisman papers. Excluding those array talismans, his success rate was already so high that it was speechless.

The way Jiang Wulin looked at Ye Kong was completely different. He guessed that this Bone Spirit Sect must be an extraordinary sect. This kid was also the focus of the sect to be trained. He wondered how much money the sect spent to be able to train this kid to have such a high success rate.

Actually, today was the first time Ye Kong made a talisman. If Jiang Wulin knew this, he would probably be so scared that his pants would tear.

"How much can this Thunder Fire Talisman be sold for?" Ye Kong asked again.

Jiang Wulin found it hard to answer. Although he had been doing business here for a long time, he had never seen a Thunder Fire Talisman.

But no matter what, this was only a low-grade talisman. The middle-grade low-grade talisman was only sold for 40 Spirit Stones. How could a low-grade talisman be more expensive than a middle-grade talisman?

"How about selling it for 30 Spirit Stones?" Jiang Wulin thought for a while and asked. Since he guessed that the other party was a core disciple of a big sect, he became more cautious with his words.

"30 Spirit Stones?" Ye Kong shook his head. He did not expect to sell it for so much. He had only spent one Spirit Stone. Seven array talismans could be sold for 14 Spirit Stones. This one was even more astonishing.

"How about this, I think we can sell it for 25 Spirit Stones." Ye Kong thought for a while and then said, "If you want to exchange it with elixirs, it would be best if it is Vitality Cultivating Elixir."

"Vitality Cultivating Elixir?" Jiang Wulin was stunned for a moment. He looked at Ye Kong and said, "Daoist Xia, is your Primordial Spirit injured?"

"No, a friend of mine helped him to exchange it. I am not very clear about the price. You can decide how many Spirit Stones you want." Ye Kong said and prepared to leave. Before he left, he said, "Oh, Brother Jiang, for each talisman we talked about before, you can take a Spirit Stone as a commission."

"Well said, well said." Jiang Wulin quickly took out three bundles of blank talisman papers and stuffed them into Ye Kong's hands.

At night, the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range was pitch-black, but the Hundred Insect Village's market was brightly lit. Moonstones were inlaid and hung everywhere. Although the brightness was not as dazzling as the lights on Earth, the hazy light had a different kind of atmosphere.

This kind of moonstone had a variety of colors. From a distance, it looked hazy. It was like the misty rain of Jiangnan, red lanterns and green willows. The scenery was very charming.

"Ancestor, this scenery is not bad. How come no one is in love?" Ye Kong asked.

"Immortal cultivators cultivate whenever they have some free time. How can they have so much leisure time?" Ancestor Acheron answered. He suddenly asked, "Why do you want to exchange for Vitality Cultivating Elixir?"

"Because you need it."

"But I have only said it once."

"It is a friend's need. Of course, I will always keep it in mind. If a friend says it to you several times, but he does not take it to heart, then he is definitely not your true friend."

"…"

"Hey, Ancestor, why aren't you saying anything? Are you so touched that you are secretly wiping your tears? "

"Get lost! Don't think that you can move me with this kind of small favor! "
