Longevity: Never leave the mountain until you are invincible

"Things in the world of cultivating immortals are really expensive. One hundred medium-grade talismans cost thirty low-grade spiritual stones. A book of talismans is even more ridiculously expensive. It cost me a full 300 low-grade spiritual stones, which is equivalent to a year's rent. "

Chu Chen looked through a stack of talisman papers and a book in his hand and couldn't help but complain.

After setting up the stall, he went to a shop selling talismans and bought a thousand pieces of middle-grade talisman paper that could be used to draw intermediate talismans. He also went to the Gongfa Pavilion in Chiyanfang City and bought a "Complete Collection of Intermediate Talismans".

One thousand pieces of mid-grade talisman paper is equivalent to 300 low-grade spiritual stones. In addition to the 300 low-grade spiritual stones purchased from the intermediate talisman collection, the total expenditure is 600 low-grade spiritual stones.

In other words, after working all day today, not only did he not earn any spiritual stones, he actually lost a hundred low-grade spiritual stones.

But that’s not how the accounts work out.

Talisman paper is necessary for drawing talismans, and the intermediate talisman encyclopedia allows Chu Chen to learn how to draw new talismans.

The intermediate talisman collection contains a total of six talismans, including the flying sword talisman, the diamond talisman, the flying talisman, the thousand-mile talisman, the fireball talisman, and the immobilization talisman.

Needless to say, the Flying Sword Talisman, the Diamond Talisman and the Flying Sky Talisman are advanced versions of the Divine Power Talisman and the Light Body Talisman respectively.

The Vajra Talisman is a defensive talisman. When activated, it can form a layer of Vajra Shield on the body to withstand a full blow from a sixth-level Qi-training monk.

The Flying Talisman is a flying talisman. After being activated, it can stay in the air for a short time.

The Qianli Talisman is a musical instrument that can transmit information within a certain range.

Fireball Talisman, as the name suggests, can directly activate a fireball spell after being activated.

The Immobilization Talisman can immobilize the body of a monk below the seventh level of Qi training.

"The best-selling mid-level talisman in Chiyanfang City is undoubtedly the Fireball Talisman, followed by the Flying Sword Talisman, the Diamond Talisman, the Flying Sky Talisman, etc."

This is easy to understand.

The mana required to activate the Fireball Talisman is less than using the Fireball Technique directly, and it is also less than activating the Flying Sword Talisman.

In the case of equal mana, the number of fireball talismans that a monk can activate is twice that of the flying sword talisman. Naturally, the monks are more inclined to purchase the fireball talismans.

Moreover, the power of the Fireball Talisman is not inferior to that of the Flying Sword Talisman, and the price is almost the same.

"Learn to draw the fireball talisman first. After selling out the flying sword talisman drawn with true energy, I will sell the fireball talisman."

Chu Chen changed his mind and set his next goal.

Make money, not shabby.

Compared with the Flying Sword Talisman, the Fireball Talisman is easier to sell and easier to earn spiritual stones.

"You also need to learn the Vajra Talisman, Feitian Talisman and other talismans."

The Diamond Talisman and other talismans are not as easy to sell as the Fireball Talisman, but he has many skills and he also needs the Diamond Talisman and other talismans.

"It's a pity that a high-level talisman collection requires three thousand low-grade spiritual stones. Otherwise, if you can learn high-level talismans, both the power of the talismans and the market will be greater."

Chu Chen felt a little sorry.

certainly.

He was just thinking about it. Not to mention that he didn't have three thousand low-grade spiritual stones on his body. Even if he bought a complete collection of high-level talismans, he would not try to draw high-level talismans for the time being.

For the intermediate talismans, he only knew one type of flying sword talisman and lacked experience. Forcibly drawing high-level talismans would only end in failure.

It's better to play it slow, practice with intermediate talismans first, and then draw advanced talismans when you have enough experience.

"Compared with other Talisman Masters, I have another advantage."

If an ordinary talisman master wants to try to practice a new talisman, he not only needs a lot of time to practice, but also consumes a lot of talisman paper to practice drawing the talisman.

But Chu Chen didn't have this learning cost.

He practices the magical power of dream marriage and can practice it continuously in dreams without worrying about wasting talisman paper.

"Fellow Taoist, are you there?"

Just when Chu Chen was about to enter the dreamland and try to refine the fireball talisman, a voice came from outside the cave.

"who?"

Chu Chen's expression tightened and he took out the Qingtian Spiritual Mirror to check.

Outside the cave, stood an old Taoist with white beard and hair who looked to be in his seventies or eighties.

The old Taoist's aura is not overpowering, it is about the sixth level of Qi training.

"I am Taoist Xuancheng who lives next door. I saw fellow Taoist people moving in, so I came here to pay a visit."

The old Taoist said with a smile on his face,

"It turns out to be Taoist Brother Xuancheng. I'm in Qinzhou today. I was busy setting up a stall today. I forgot for a moment that I should be the one visiting Taoist Brother at his door, but I shouldn't let him come to visit him."

Chu Chen thought for a while, opened the magic circle outside the cave and walked out.

"No, it's me who's causing trouble."

Taoist Xuancheng glanced at Chu Chen, who was blocking the cave and showing no intention of inviting him in, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

However, he didn't pay too much attention to it. The monk's cave is a very private place. Generally, people who are not close relatives and friends will not let people enter the cave at will.

When they were not familiar with each other, even if Chu Chen invited them, he would not enter Chu Chen's cave at will.

"We are all neighbors, and I hope we can take care of each other in the future."

Taoist Xuancheng put a smile on his face again, and as he spoke, he handed over a pot of home-brewed spiritual wine.

"It's natural."

Chu Chen nodded, took the spirit wine, and handed over five spirit-gathering pills as a return gift.

The two chatted for a while, and Chu Chen gained a lot from what Taoist Xuancheng said about Chiyanfang City.

Taoist Xuancheng also mentioned some recent events in Chiyanfang City: "I heard that a casual cultivator came to Fangcheng today to sell defective flying sword talismans. A flying sword talisman only costs five low-grade spiritual stones, but its power is relatively small." The ordinary flying sword talisman is much weaker."

"Is there such a thing?"

A look of surprise appeared on Chu Chen's face at the right time.

"That's right. If I were there, I would have bought a few. Unfortunately, this person's behavior has caused dissatisfaction among many talisman masters in the market. Some talisman masters said that if this person appears again tomorrow, they will teach him the rules of the market."

"Oh?"

Chu Chen was shocked, but asked calmly on the surface: "I wonder what rules this person broke?"

The Taoist Xuancheng stroked his beard and said: "The talismans in the market are basically controlled by several talisman masters. This casual cultivator set the price at will. What rules did you break?"

"I see."

Chu Chen nodded in understanding.

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and Taoist Xuancheng found a reason to leave.

"Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and Chiyan Market is no exception."

Back in the cave, Chu Chen's expression instantly became solemn.

He had expected this situation, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.

"Fortunately, I disguised myself when I went to set up the stall today."

Out of caution, Chu Chen disguised himself a lot when he went to set up the stall. He not only changed his appearance, but also changed his height with the Hundred Transformations.

After the stall was over, he deliberately walked around the market for a few times to confirm that no one was following him before returning to the cave.

"I can't set up the stall tomorrow."

Chu Chen had a headache. If he couldn't set up the stall, he might not be able to support it for too long with his current savings.

"It seems that I can only sell all these flying sword talismans drawn with true qi to the talisman shops in the market."

The talisman shops in the market will also purchase talismans, but the price is lower than that of the stalls.

Generally speaking, unless there is really no other way, ordinary talisman masters will not sell the talismans they draw to talisman shops.

But given the current situation, selling to talisman shops is the best choice.
