A+ A- Turn Off Light

Indeed.

Using spirit talismans, especially finished spirit talismans, which were not weak in power and did not consume one’s own spiritual energy, and most importantly, could also be instantaneous, were of course extremely popular among cultivators.

The Bai family, too, had apparently sensed the pressure from the Chen family and was making preparations in advance.

There was not just one small talisman store such as the Rune Edge Residence, and this store owner that Bai Shaofeng had notified was certainly more than just Wei Xingyuan.

“Talisman Master Zhou.

Since you are able to draw a finished spirit talisman, then there is a request that I would like to ask Talisman Master Zhou to be able to grant.”

Immediately afterward, Wei Xingyuan hurriedly spoke.

“Go ahead!”

tan san nodded his head.

“If afterward, Rune Master Zhou has produced a finished spirit talisman, please also sell it to me as well.

Of course, I won’t let Rune Master Zhou suffer, the Bai Family is all willing to pay a 10% premium, so I’ll pay a 20% premium, but of course only for finished spirit talismans.”

Wei Xingyuan even said.

“It’s not necessary, is it?

Boss Wei you only need to fulfill his acquisition task, why bother spending any more spirit stones in this regard?”

tan san froze and was surprised.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to earn more spirit stones, it was just that Wei Xingyuan was really honest and fair in his business, plus there was some news within the marketplace that wouldn’t be hidden from him, and he was still quite cognizant of this person.

“If it was just the Bai Family, it would be fine.

There’s also the Chen family.

Although no one has come from the Chen family yet, I think it won’t be long before someone orders them to turn in their spirit talismans.

These two sides, I don’t dare to offend anyone, otherwise, let alone after the conflict breaks out, I won’t be able to continue my business even now.”

At that, Wei Xingyuan said with a bitter face.

This was also the sorrow of the bottom cultivators.

Although Wei Xingyuan was the owner of the Rune Edge Residence store and had an industry in place, he was not considered to be at the bottom, but because of this, he was even more constrained by others.

The Bai family and the Chen family are both considered to be workshop managers, not a small force in the workshop, just which one to pinch, he can not stand.

Therefore, he could only please both sides.

As for defecting to one family?

He didn’t have the qualifications.

If one family pinches him, the other family won’t necessarily stand up for him.

“Boss Wei, don’t worry, if I want to sell the finished spirit talismans I drew, of course I will prefer you, Fu Yuan Ju.

There’s no need to pay a 20% premium, with the Bai family in general, a 10% premium will do.”

In the end, tan san still made a guarantee.

After leaving Fu Yuan Ju, tan san quickly changed his face and entered several other talisman stores, of course, the Six Directions Pavilion, the Bai Clan, and even the Water and Cloud Pavilion, all of which he went to once.

Although the prices of the talismans acquired by the big stores were lower, the amount of spirit talismans he produced, was just too much, almost one talisman paper could succeed in one spirit talisman, and it had to be spread out for it to sell well.

For this reason, he actually took on another identity separately, and several small talisman stores, and reached a partnership.

The last one summarized.

The spirit talismans he had sold this time had been exchanged for a total of eight hundred or so lower-grade spirit stones, and that was after deducting the fact that he had purchased enough beast skin talisman paper.

“Eight hundred lower grade spirit stones, that’s quite a lot.

If I come a few more times, I’ll be able to accumulate quite a few spirit stones as well.

Most importantly, the three First Grade Initial Stage Golden Light Shield Talismans, but one of them hasn’t been sold yet.”

tan san walked down the street, his mind calm.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to sell this Golden Light Shield Talisman.

It is just that the Golden Light Shield talisman is a middle grade talisman, a middle grade talisman maker can draw the corresponding ordinary spirit talisman, high-quality spirit talisman, are still very likely, but the finished grade of the first grade early stage spirit talisman, is bound to be striking.

After all, the talisman maker who could make a finished grade of mid-grade spirit talisman, in the entire Feng Ming Dock workshop market, were relatively few, and almost every one of them had a famous name.

When one suddenly appeared, it would naturally attract attention.

If there was no complete means to change the appearance and breath, tan san would not rush to sell it.

For this reason.

tan san bought a set of Four Seasons Formation and the corresponding Formation Flag in the Hexagonal Pavilion, and after spending a hundred lower-grade spirit stones, he hurried to the Scattered Cultivator Bazaar, and from the hands of a cultivator, he bought a copy of the Facelift Bone Shrinking Skill.

This Facelift Shrinking Skill was not a spell, but a physical cultivation technique similar to a martial art.

It was able to fundamentally change a cultivator’s height and appearance.

With the hallucinogenic type of spells, there is a fundamental difference.

Hallucinogenic spells, if encountered with the cultivation of spiritual eye art cultivator, it is extremely easy to be broken, and this facelift shrinkage, directly from the root to change the cultivator’s face height and body type, any eyes of the gods, can see through all the illusions, but also can not see the slightest bloom.

The only drawback.

It was only the cultivator’s personal breath.

However, locking the breath is a means that only a true cultivator of the Foundation Establishment Realm who possesses Divine Sense can possess.

Ordinary cultivators, even if they were at the ninth level of qi cultivation, would not be able to use the cultivator’s breath to determine if the other party was someone they knew well.

In the scattered cultivator bazaar, there was news everywhere about the upcoming performances of the performing troupes.

Information about several of the performers were also circulating.

The Flying Rat Wu Yun Tian who performed flying stunts, the Green Moon Fairy Zhao Yueqing who performed the Dance of Spells, and the Imperial Beast Master Zhuge Hongyu who fought with a human and a snake…….

Each and every one of them, was a great expert at the seventh level of Qi Practicing or above.

tan san looked at the distance, the North District Plaza that was surrounded by a huge black cloth, and as could be expected, when the performance started, it was bound to be very lively.

Even if the performance time was set at night, there would be quite a few people who would be willing to spend spirit stones to watch.

“Ten lower grade spirit stones for the base ticket.

The front row seats are even as high as one hundred lower-grade spirit stones.

The VIP seats, on the other hand, are not for sale ……”

tan san just looked in that direction and left directly.

Compared to the performance, he was actually more interested in watching the final ring duel.

It was said to be two cultivators in the marketplace who had a blood feud, borrowing the platform of the performance troupe to have a duel, and the spirit contract of life and death had already been signed.

On both sides, only one person could walk down from the ring alive.

The party that lives can even get a certain amount of ticket draw.

But ten lower grade spirit stones to watch a show.

tan san felt that it was too extravagant.

He hadn’t forgotten the days when he had toiled for half a year to earn those ten or so Lower Grade Spirit Stones.

Nowadays, the spirit stones themselves were very tight, so he felt that it did not matter if he watched this performance or not.

When he returned to the courtyard, the sky had already darkened.

tan san hurriedly completed the process of giving alms in the backyard before returning to the front yard, washing the rice to make the meal, and then directly entering the talisman room to begin the routine of drawing talismans.

Now that he knew, the needs of the upper echelons within the workshop market.

tan san naturally wasted even less time on other ordinary spirit talismans.

With all his might, he began to refine the Fireball Talisman, the Thunderbolt Talisman and the Spirit Light Shield Talisman.

The three types of spirit talismans were drawn alternately.

From time to time, there were flashes of spiritual light after the spirit talisman was made.

And every once in a while, the unique spiritual light of the finished spirit talisman would rise.

Nowadays, tan san’s probability of making a finished talisman was around 10% when it came to drawing fireball talismans and lightning talismans.

It was almost equivalent to the fact that for every ten spirit talismans he drew, one would be a first grade early stage spirit talisman.

Such a probability was not low.

An ordinary talisman maker, first of all, had to ensure the success rate of talisman making, that is, how many sheets of talisman paper, before being able to draw a spirit talisman.

Often, even experienced first-grade middle-ranked talisman makers were able to maintain a success rate of 50 to 60% at most, while low-ranked talisman makers were mostly only able to maintain a success rate of 10 to 30%.

Then in the talisman produced, but also to ensure the quality of ordinary spirit talisman, if it can be made into a high-quality goods talisman, can be a small surprise, a first-grade early-stage spirit talisman? That has to hit the big luck.

Most of the hundreds of times to make talisman success, only then there will be one or two times, will make a first grade early stage spirit talisman.

This was also the reason why many people had a complicated set of rituals before making a talisman.

Sometimes, it was really the favor of the God of Fate that allowed them to make a finished talisman.

And a finished talisman was often three to five times more expensive than a fine talisman.

A real contrast in spirit stone income.

Of course it made many talisman makers, inexplicably believe in metaphysics.

tan san, on the other hand, was ten times more expensive than them.

And there would be no chance of failing to make a talisman.

“Unfortunately, the probability of a finished talisman for the Golden Light Shield Talisman is relatively a bit lower, only half a percent.

Often, it needs to be refined twenty times before it can succeed that much once.”

tan san thought in his heart, and his hands did not stop moving, already transforming into a talisman making machine.

The next day, in addition to his daily routine of cultivation, tan san practiced the Transfiguration Bone Shrinking Technique as an additional item.

In addition, he also had to spend time studying the newly purchased formation atlas, the Four Seasons Formation.

The Four Seasons Formation, compared to the Soundproof Formation and the Misty Formation, was much more complex, and although it was nowhere near the Small Spirit Gathering Formation that he had been studying, the difficulty of laying the formation was not small.

tan san spent three days before and after, before he finally understood this formation, and accordingly arranged it in the five acres of spiritual fields in the backyard.

At once, under his control, the weather in the backyard can be alternately converted.

If you want to be warm like spring, just pinch the array, the weather will change, want to summer heat, the array can immediately simulate the corresponding environment, even if the outside world is freezing cold, stand within the array for a while, will sweat like rain.

Three days later at night.

tan san had just finished a day of drawing talismans, and was about to enter the cultivation room to dive into cultivation, when he saw in vain that in the distance, the sky suddenly brightened.

Then vaguely, a clamor was heard.

“There it is, in the direction of the Northern District?

Right.

The performance troupe is performing just this night, and I didn’t expect it to be over yet.

Looks like, it’s quite lively?”

tan san’s face showed a look of surprise, but he wasn’t too curious.

He had seen quite a few performance troupes like this in his previous life, and although the form was different, it was always something like that.

In his opinion, the more people there were, the worse the experience actually was.

After having been there so once or twice in his previous life, he was no longer lazy to get together, it would be better to stay at home and look at the beautiful women and look at the legs to be happy ……

Thus, he quickly entered the cultivation chamber and directly began his daily routine of cultivation.

There were no words in the night.

The next day tan san woke up and again played three sets of Tian Yuan Eight Styles one after another.

This set of Physical Cultivation Art Forms, almost every time he practiced them, he was able to feel his physical body getting stronger, and the effect would not diminish as he practiced more times.

Because, every time he performed it, he was fighting against the heaven and earth, using the power of the heaven and earth to oppress and strengthen himself.

The stronger the power, in turn, the stronger the oppressive force descending from heaven and earth, naturally the better the quenching effect.

“In addition, it seems that with every realm breakthrough, the movements of this set of physical cultivation art forms are also being optimized.

Now, the Eight Heavenly Yuan Styles have been cultivated by me to the level of (Proficient 197/200).

It is estimated that tomorrow, I will be able to break through to the realm of minor accomplishment.

At that time, the cultivation effect, will be even faster. It can be much more useful than eating those qi and blood pills, and body forging pills.”

tan san inexplicably also had some expectations.

And he had also discovered it.

Although his qualifications were weaker in terms of practicing qi, but in terms of body refining, his could be called a genius, and his progress was even more visible to the naked eye.

At this time, he already felt that the strength of his physical body was not far from the third layer of body refining.

I believe that tomorrow, if the Tian Yuan eight styles of small success, his physical cultivation realm, will certainly break through to the third layer of the realm of body refining accordingly.

In the meantime, he used a cleansing technique to cleanse himself.

tan san was about to head towards the kitchen when a knock came on the door.

“Who?”

tan san answered vigilantly.

“Head of the Square Market Escort, Yan Zhenxi.”

A low voice came from outside the door.

“Square Market Escort Captain Yan Zhenxi?”

tan san froze, but he had also heard of the name Yan Zhenxi, one of the eight guard captains of the Market City, with a cultivation level of the sixth level of Qi cultivation.

As a matter of fact, the eight guard captains in the market were all in this realm, and their combat power was not weak.

And this Yan Zhenxi, before he became the neighborhood guard captain, in fact, he was also a little famous demon hunter in Fengmingwu neighborhood, tan san’s father, had worked in the other side’s squad for a period of time.

It was said that he was extremely strong and fair, and that he was not overly harsh towards bottom tier innate ‘porters’ like his father, and that the pay was also quite generous.

However, the sudden arrival of this escort leader still made tan san a little surprised, and also afraid that it was the matter of him beating and killing the Insect King Xue Tong that was exposed, he quickly asked, “What is it about?”

“You open the door first.

There is something to inform.”

The other party quickly returned.

Upon hearing this, tan san could not afford to delay any longer, and hearing that the other party was only notifying matters, he let go of a hint of worry and opened the door.

Only to see that outside the door, there was a somewhat majestic looking middle-aged cultivator standing, the other party was dressed in a workshop guard uniform, with slightly thick eyebrows and a stern gaze, only that there were claw marks on his face, which added a bit of ferocity to his body.

And not far behind him, there was also another workshop market guard, who was saying something to his neighbor, the tomb raiding cultivator, ‘Ghost Eye’ Zhao Shanhe.

“I wonder what Captain Yan is here for this time?”

tan san calmly asked.

“Last night, there were a few assassinations in the marketplace.

There were a few rebellious robbing cultivators that were killed in public, while there were others that took advantage of the chaos and escaped.

I’m here to ask you about it, yesterday night, did you hear any movement?”

Yan Zhenxi first explained, then asked.

“The assassination?

Where?”

tan san was surprised and asked back, then quickly said, “I didn’t hear any movement, I stayed at home the whole night and didn’t go out.”

“After the night performance troupe ended.

By the way, this is the likeness of a few robber cultivators that have been seen, so identify them or make a note of them, and if you find any, report them to us in time.

We will also give a certain reward.”

Yan Zhenxi glanced at tan san, since he would not suspect that tan san had any connection with the assassins.

As a matter of fact, long before the investigation, they had all ‘viewed’ the rental information from within the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, and knew that tan san was a native of Fengmingwu Square Market, and before that, he was even a Spirit Farmer, with a low level of strength, so he would not have any connection with those robbing cultivators at all.

Then, he took out a few portraits and displayed them in front of tan san.

tan san swept a glance, three men and one woman, naturally none of them recognized.

However, Immortal Law cultivators, countless means, it is hard to guarantee that there are people who have practiced Transfiguration Shrinking Skills, or who have performed Transfiguration, Facelift Illusion-type spells, and their faces may not always be true.

tan san first shook his head, then asked curiously, “This reward, how much is it?”

“Reporting the location of a Hijacking Cultivator is rewarded with one hundred lower grade spirit stones, and if you can kill a Hijacking Cultivator, you will be rewarded with one thousand lower grade spirit stones.”

Yan Zhenxi spoke first, then swept a glance at tan san and said, “Forget about you, don’t get into this mess.”

Then, he paused and said, “Actually, I know your father.

He is considered a rather capable and thoughtful innate martial artist.

Unfortunately, he was born at the wrong time and didn’t have a spiritual root, otherwise his achievements would never have been small.

However, I haven’t seen him for several years, and it was only when I saw his name when checking your rental information earlier that I remembered such a friend.

How is he, nowadays?”

“I didn’t expect Captain Yan to remember my father? My father did mention Captain Yan, saying that he had taken care of him in the hunting team before.

As for my father nowadays, he has returned to the secular world and is considered to have retired to his hometown to enjoy life.”

tan san said unexpectedly, then hurriedly explained.

As for the other party being able to find out this information from the rental information, he was not surprised.

The house on the outskirts of the marketplace that he had previously lived in was one that he had rented in his father’s name, and now that he had changed residences, he naturally needed to record it under his name.

It was normal for the other party to see a familiar name and pay attention for a moment or two.

“Returning to your hometown from old age?

That would be good.

Returning to the world is indeed a good choice for him.”

Yan Zhenxi was also relieved when he heard this, he was also afraid of hearing the news that his old friend had died.

“Then Uncle Yan, I wonder this time, who were the assassins? How many died?

If it’s an ordinary person, it shouldn’t be enough for you to make a big deal out of it, right?”

tan san was also well aware of borrowing a donkey to get on the slope, and hurriedly changed his address, inquiring in passing.

“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask.

In short, go out less during this time, and don’t mess around with what’s going on.

I still have to be busy here, so I won’t talk more with you.”

Yan Zhenxi glared at tan san, but also reminded him.

Then, he hurriedly headed towards the other house.

And at this time, the opposite side of the ‘Ghost Eyes’ Zhao Shanhe also ended his cross-examination, and at this time, he walked to tan san and unexpectedly said, “I didn’t think that you, Taoist Friend, would still have this layer of relationship with Captain Yan.”

Obviously, he also heard tan san called that ‘Uncle Yan’.

However, tan san knew his own family’s business.

That is, the other party took the initiative to mention his father, he only had an excuse to climb up the relationship, really want to think that the other party to read the old feelings, and then rushed to flatter, in turn, upset people.

After all, his father at the time, but also in the other team to do some searching for demons to explore the road, carrying demonic beasts corpses of miscellaneous work, is not the other side of the official team members.

There is no strength, and then deep friendship, will also fade away.

Of course the other way around, if there is strength, a little bit of relationship, will also gradually strong.

“Just a little connection between fathers.”

tan san faintly shook his head and said.

“That’s not bad, to know that this Captain Yan, but among the eight guard captains, the strength of the strongest one, but also several people, the most likely to break through to the seventh level of qi cultivation one.

Once the breakthrough, he is very likely to borrow the position of the commander of the market, at least is also the deputy commander.

Strength, potential are not small.

To be able to climb into a relationship with the other party, within this workshop market, Dao Friend Zhou hardly needs to worry about anything.”

A trace of envy duly appeared on Zhao Shanhe’s face.

tan san just had a flat face.

What he preferred to believe in was always his own strength, and how the others were was of little relevance to him.

“By the way, this time, the commotion that has been created is not small, it seems that there is going to be a period of uneasiness within the workshop market again.”

Seeing that tan san didn’t pick up on it, Zhao Shanhe was slightly embarrassed, then hastily changed the topic and said.

“Oh?

This time, what’s going on?”

tan san did have some doubts, just now asked Yan Zhenxi, but did not get an answer, now listen to Zhao Shanhe’s meaning, seems to have some understanding, of course, want to ask about it.

“The matter is actually very simple.

It’s that there were cultivators who, after the end of the performance troupe, assassinated some cultivators.

It’s just that the identities of those few who were assassinated were a bit uncomplicated.

Seven dead and thirteen injured.

All of them were people from the White Family.

Immediately after the assassination ended, there were robber cultivators who took advantage of the situation and very much intercepted and killed some low-ranked cultivators.

This is what led the marketplace guards to start eyeballing and checking early this morning.

The open questioning is just the beginning.

Secret tracking, can never be less.

Seven Bai family people, although they are only beginner, middle-ranked cultivators, but each have skills in the body, two alchemists, two talisman makers, a formation master, a spirit plant master, refiner.

If such people die, the Bai Family’s loss is huge.

It would be strange if they don’t go crazy.”

Zhao Shanhe shook his head and said with emotion.

“I see.”

tan san also nodded his head.

Low-ranked cultivators, middle-ranked cultivators, were all good to cultivate and only required a small amount of resources.

But alchemists, talisman makers, array masters, spirit plant masters, and weapon refiners …… almost every one of them, the resources that need to be invested are not small.

Especially alchemists refiners and array masters, the resources needed to grow up were ten times that of an ordinary cultivator.

Losing seven at once.

Even the Bai Family would be incomparably heartbroken and would go crazy over it.

“Once the marketplace is in chaos, when the time comes, it will be difficult to guarantee our safety.

Fellow Daoist Zhou, I think it’s better for us to stay away from the center of chaos that is the Square Market for now.

My last proposal, I think it’s better for you to consider it.

In this way, I am willing to sign a spirit contract with you before we act, not to attack or harm each other.

Then the distribution of benefits will also come according to a fifty-fifty split.

The tomb of a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator, ah, the treasures are very precious.

Moreover, I’ve already checked the information and pretty much confirmed the identity of the owner of that mausoleum, the other party is a loner, and if there are good things they will inevitably hide them in their own mausoleums ……”

Zhao Shanhe sighed, the topic changed, and he hastened to rehash old matters, wanting to invite tan san to explore the Foundation Establishment Mausoleum with him.

“Not interested, farewell!”

tan san sniffed and ignored the words, directly arching his hand and turning around to return to his courtyard.
