Chapter 136 – Yan Family
”I’ll continue with a few of you as well.” The Red Lotus Scattered Man was quite dry.
”Good! Is Brother Han planning to do the same.” The Taoist priest looked happy and asked Han Li again.
Han Li hesitated upon hearing this.
In theory, for a newcomer like him, continuing to follow this small group should be the best choice, but in his heart, he somehow always felt that there was something wrong, as if he would definitely regret it if he really wanted to do so.
”I’d rather wait for the trade fair to end before making a decision! There’s no rush!” Han Li said with a smile as he decided to drag his feet first.
”Huh!” Han Li’s words were clearly unexpected by the others, causing Qing Ripple and the others to be a bit stunned.
”What does Brother Han have to hesitate about? It’s only when we loose cultivators are together that we won’t be bullied, not to mention the fact that I’m greatly interested in your brother’s ability to recognize my stealing skills, and I’d like to spar more in the future!” Wu Jiuzhi was somewhat dissatisfied.
Han Li didn’t get angry when he heard the youngster’s words, and just smiled without saying anything.
”Hehe, brother Han didn’t say that he definitely wouldn’t join us on the road, he just said that he wanted to think about it, which is also common sense!” Daoist Green Stripe hurriedly persuaded.
”Yes, Daoist Green Streak’s words, spoke to my heart, I do have some unspeakable hardships, that’s why I need to be more cautious!” Han Li seemed to be greatly grateful to Daoist Green Stripe, revealing a look that spoke to his heart.
”In that case, then count me as nosy!” The teenager felt as if he had become a stranger inside and out, and was greatly displeased.
The green-striped Daoist smiled helplessly, and with a look of an elder brother tolerating an obdurate younger brother, he secretly rushed Han Li with an apologetic hug.
Han Li naturally would not take this matter to heart.
However, since this matter had also been resolved, all of them rose and excused themselves to return. Han Li also found an empty house on the second floor and settled down.
On the second day, other than the monk and Han Li, everyone else walked out of the attic and went out to the stalls in a group.
At this time, the monk continued his meditation in the hall on the first floor, while Han Li was inside the house caressing a dozen talisman papers with his fingers as he fell into deep thought.
”This so-called Primary Lower Order Talisman Paper has a spirit light faintly flickering on it, it’s really quite different from ordinary mundane talisman paper, it seems that either its raw materials are special, or it requires some sort of spell to give it a boost.” Han Li thought.
Han Li took out this talisman paper, originally intending to practice the “Divine Fixation Technique” that he had learned in the past. However, it suddenly occurred to him that it seemed that drawing a Divine Fixation Talisman couldn’t be done with talisman paper alone, but also required something like a brush and dan sand. These two items seemed to be sold at the stalls of Immortal Cultivators. Could it be that these items, too, couldn’t be worldly things and had to be specially made by Immortal Cultivators?
Thinking of this, Han Li couldn’t sit still inside the house. He decided to go and find the monk, he couldn’t hide the fact that he was a novice Immortal Cultivator anyway, so he might as well ask directly in a big way.
”What you think is good, if you want to successfully draw a spirit talisman, in addition to the talisman paper that must be refined with special raw materials, you must also use the dan sand made from the blood of demonic beasts that contain spiritual qi in order to do so, as for the pen, it depends on the situation!” Monk Bitterthorn said calmly after hearing Han Li’s query.
”Master Bitterthorn, what do you mean by depending on the situation?” Han Li sat cross-legged opposite the monk and asked earnestly, without a hint of embarrassment.
”The pens that we Immortal Cultivators use to draw spirit talismans can be made with charcoal pens made from the spirit hairs on demonic beasts in addition to charcoal pens made from certain genius earth treasures and the like, and all of these can increase the success rate of talismans and the power of the talismans. But if there are no conditions, even ordinary pens from the secular world will do, it’s just that the success rate of that talisman making is really pitifully low.” The monk shook his head lightly, seemingly disapproving of Han Li’s use of the last method to refine talismans.
”Thanks for the guidance, Master, huh? Then I’ll go out and see if it’s possible to exchange it for a talisman-making pen!” Han Li stood up and rushed at the monk with a clasp of his fist.
”Take care, monks!” The monk closed his eyes once again and continued his Zen meditation.
It seemed like it wouldn’t work if he didn’t go out today! One remembers that the pen and the dan sand weren’t cheap, they probably cost about six or seven low-grade spirit stones. Is it really necessary to sell the “flight talisman” that just arrived?
As Han Li walked, he thought about it, and left the pavilion, heading toward the trading floor.
It was now morning, so the Immortal Cultivators on the road were in twos and threes, not really cold, but looking at their direction they all seemed to be heading towards the Trading Ground, and it seemed that most of them were the same as the Taoist priests and their kind of people who set up stalls.
”Look, what a big bird!” A male Immortal cultivator suddenly exclaimed.
Then, a huge black shadow swept over the heads of Han Li and the other Immortal cultivators on this road.
Han Li was startled and hurriedly looked up.
He only saw a two-headed strange bird the size of a calf flying over their heads.
This bird resembles an eagle is not an eagle, full of gray feathers, wings spread out a few feet wide, underneath the body there is a pair of claws as sharp as a scythe, and the neck of the two bald top of the vicious head of the bird, there are four small eyes with a slight green light.
What a vicious demonic bird!
”So ugly!”
”So big!”
”Quickly grab it, it’s just right to use as a mount!”
……
The Immortal cultivators below stopped their feet and talked, and some of them even jumped up to try it out.
”You guys don’t want to die! This is the ‘Twin-headed Rasps’, a captive spirit bird of the Yan Family of the No. 1 Immortal Cultivation Clan, Gouyu Mountain, and there must be someone from the Yan Family up there, do you want to seek your own death?”
A few cold words doused the beautiful dreams of certain people.
”The Yan family? That only Immortal Cultivation Family that stocks JieDan Stage cultivators outside of the major Immortal Cultivation Schools?” Someone lost his voice.
”If not this Yan family or which Yan family? I came here earlier than you guys, so I’ve seen this ‘Twin-headed Rascal’ once. I also know that this time, the Yan family has sent two siblings to participate in the ring match of the Immortal Ascension Conference!” Another Immortal Cultivator proudly showed off.
”No way! The Yan Family has also sent someone to participate in the Immortal Ascension Conference, but they never sent anyone in previous years! This way, won’t there definitely be two less spots!”
”That’s right, in case we run into two people from the Yan Family in the ring, won’t we be out of luck!”
……
These Immortal Cultivators, their faces were all a bit unsightly, and some even sighed and sighed!
Han Li, however, coldly looked at the distant strange bird without saying a word, look at the image of this demonic bird, clearly is that Xi Tie Niu had seen the strange eagle, and that pair of fairy men and women should be Yan family brother and sister!
Han Li was thinking ponderously, while the nearby Immortal Cultivators went about their business again after this small storm.
In the end, he smiled faintly and sparedly left as well.
There were already quite a few people within the square now, and although it wasn’t quite as lively as what he had seen last night, it was still considered popular.
Han Li touched the multiple bottles of pills still remaining within his arms and decided to see if he could exchange them for something else.
Thus, instead of going in through the original entrance this time, he cut through the other end of the plaza, and he planned to start strolling from the other side.
Along the way, Han Li’s eyes glanced left and right from time to time, looking at the various materials and talismans on the stalls, as well as some ancient and odd magical artifacts that dazzled him.
Suddenly, Han Li’s footsteps stopped in front of a certain stall. He looked at a not-so-thick book on the stall, somewhat lost in thought.
The price tag in front of the book was labeled: ‘Evergreen Merit’, Wood Attribute Immortal Cultivation Basic Merit Technique, valued at two low-grade spirit stones.
”This book, I’ll take it!” Han Li slowly lowered his body and picked up this book and flipped through it slightly before raising his head and calmly saying to the stall owner.
