After finally graduating from university, she booked a tour group to 'reward' herself for years of hard study, but unexpectedly ran into falling rocks and was killed. Her wonderful life had...

Chapter 166 The Forsaken Disciple is Not to be Trifled With (Twenty-Eight)

Chu Xuan didn't have spirit stones to buy these things, and besides, he didn't think he had the eye to tell which ones were treasures.

Lin Xue started browsing the first stall with great interest, carefully examining each item.

"Boss, how much is this jade manual?"

If Lin Xue sees something that looks good, she will ask about the price.

"20 mid-grade spirit stones!"

The stall owner didn't even look up before quoting a price, which startled Lin Xue so much that she quickly and carefully put the item back.

If she accidentally hits someone, she can't afford to pay for it.

"Excuse me!"

Lin Xue apologized and then continued walking to the next stall.

Immortals like Lin Xue are not uncommon, so the stall owner wasn't surprised. He simply kept his eyes closed, lost in thought.

"Boss, how much is this talisman pen?"

Although he has received the inheritance of the Talisman Immortal, he has not yet begun formal cultivation.

He was simply sketching the runes on the talisman paper in his mind.

To draw a talisman, you need a foreshadowing brush and special talisman paper.

Ordinary paper and brushes cannot bear the spiritual power of immortals and cannot be used to draw runes.

Only those with extremely high cultivation and talisman-making abilities can draw talismans in the air. That's almost the level of a great being, something a mere cultivator like her couldn't do.

"This talisman brush was discarded by Master Yu Fei of the Wangyue Sect. Although it is very old, his talisman drawing skills are still better than those talisman brushes on the market!"

"If you want it, little one, just give me 100 low-grade spirit stones, and I can even give you some free talismans!"

This price was completely beyond Lin Xue's expectations. You should know that the lowest grade talisman pen on the market should cost around 200 mid-grade spirit stones.

Even discarded second-hand talisman brushes are priced at around twenty or thirty mid-grade spirit stones.

Lin Xue asked about the price of the talisman pen not because she actually intended to buy it, but purely out of a desire to find a bargain.

But when the shopkeeper quoted the price, Lin Xue couldn't help but feel uneasy. Could this talisman pen be fake?

"Don't worry, young lady, this talisman pen is absolutely genuine!"

"The reason I'm selling it at such a low price is because I didn't spend much money when I got this talisman brush. Secondly, I'm currently short of money!"

The shop owner wasn't lying. The reason he set up his stall here was because he had his eye on a magical artifact, and he was only two hundred low-grade spirit stones short of it.

Even this small amount of 200 low-grade spirit stones is not something an ordinary immortal could gather in a short time.

That's why he came to this place called Immortal's Visit, where he set up a stall to sell some miscellaneous items that he no longer needed.

Before Lin Xue arrived, he had already sold items worth about 120 low-grade spirit stones.

Now, if he could sell this talisman pen for 100 low-grade spirit stones, he would still have a few left, so he wouldn't need to keep guarding this place anymore.

"Boss, can I try it?"

Although the shopkeeper seemed sincere, Lin Xue didn't dare to believe him easily. Even though 100 low-grade spirit stones were nothing to a wealthy person.

But for someone as poor as her, she really has to break a single gemstone into ten pieces to use it.

"Young lady, feel free to try it; this pen is absolutely genuine!"

As the shopkeeper spoke, he handed over two talismans.

Talisman paper is relatively cheap; you can buy about 100 ordinary talismans for one low-grade spirit stone.

For intermediate-grade talismans, one or two hundred can be bought with one mid-grade spirit stone.

Top-grade talisman paper can only be purchased with high-grade spirit stones, and it is extremely rare and practically nonexistent on the market.

Lin Xue was delighted by her boss's generosity.

She squeezed right up to the stall owner and placed the talisman on a low table in front of him.

Then she took out the ink that her master had prepared for her long ago from her space. This ink was made by mixing the blood of different ferocious beasts with many other materials.

Lin Xue, having dipped her brush in ink, naturally dared not attempt the difficult task.

I chose the simplest one from my memory and then began to depict it.

Lin Xue had sketched this talisman in her mind countless times, and had also drawn it on paper with an ordinary brush.

Although it lacks the effect of talisman paper, it can still achieve continuous ink flow.

"Buzz!"

A flash of light appeared, and Lin Xue raised her brush for drawing talismans, then looked at the completed Fiery Talisman.

"It's done! I never expected that this young girl would be a talisman maker at such a young age!"

In the cultivation world, talisman masters are just as rare as alchemists.

Although drawing talismans may seem like simply using a pen to draw specific patterns on talisman paper.

However, there are many intricacies involved, and it is essential to ensure that the input of spiritual energy conforms to the structure of the runes.

The techniques involved are simply impossible for someone without any foundation in calligraphy or painting.

"Is this a Fiery Talisman? Young lady, are you selling this talisman? I'll offer five low-grade spirit stones!"

The stall owner picked up the talisman drawn by Lin Xue and examined it carefully. He found that although the talisman was a bit immature, the spiritual power it contained was very stable.

Such talisman paper has very stable properties. Unless it is activated, it is not likely to spontaneously combust or explode.

"Boss, to be honest, I don't have many spirit stones on me. If you're willing to take the talismans, I can draw a few more Fiery Talismans. How about we price them at 5 low-grade spirit stones each?"

Lin Xue's body was full of spiritual energy. If she could exchange it for some spirit stones, she could save a lot of spirit stones when buying this talisman brush.
