Chapter 172 Reward

When Lin Bufan heard Zheng Fa ask this, his expression became complicated.

But Li Nuo was obviously relieved.

"Brother Lin has been reluctant to cooperate these days." Li Nuo complained to Lin Bufan in a small way. Zheng Fa couldn't help but turn his head to look at this former disciple of the Demon Sect. The muscles on the man's face slowly stiffened, revealing a sense of guilt.

It seems that what Li Nuo said is true.

After he left Jiushan Sect, Li Nuo could no longer suppress him.

"Tell me about the talisman you tested." Zheng Fa didn't say anything to Lin Bufan, but continued to ask Li Nuo.

"I have tried it before. Brother Lin's blood has some miraculous effects on soul-related talismans." Li Nuo said excitedly, "At first I made a soul-nourishing talisman, and later I made a soul-shaking talisman, a soul-piercing talisman... So far, I have about eight or nine kinds."

"Spiritual...what about other types of sigils?"

Zheng Fa was hesitant for a moment. He had always felt that Lin Bufan’s blood could be used to make soul talismans because of the special spiritual talismans in his blood.

"Other types are not possible, only the talismans related to the soul are extremely successful."

"How much blood does it take to make a sigil?"

"Taking into account the loss, one pill per liter of blood can be guaranteed." Li Nuo said after thinking for a while.

"Is the blood of the Foundation Establishment Stage the same as that of the Qi Refining Stage?"

"I don't know. Brother Lin is in the Foundation Establishment Stage. His blood was used to make the talisman, and the talisman he drew is a Xuan-grade talisman." Li Nuo said honestly: "I speculate that if he is in the Qi Refining Stage, the talisman should correspond to a Huang-grade talisman."

"I remember that the talisman made of beast blood can print a thousand talismans?" Zheng Fa remembered the data that Li Nuo told him before, and asked.

"The talismans made from Brother Lin's blood can only print one hundred Xuan-grade talismans." Li Nuo said this with a somewhat depressed expression.

Less blood than the spirit beast, it seems that the blood of this demon sect disciple is not all good...

"Are there any other costs besides blood?"

"Yes, the talisman paper costs money, the spiritual ink costs money, and the rest are small things." Li Nuo said honestly: "Almost all of them are mundane things."

Zheng Fa nodded.

Among the talismans that can be made with Lin Bufan’s blood, the Soul-Nourishing Talisman and the Soul-Thorning Talisman are considered relatively precious.

The prices of the others were also a bit more expensive than other talismans - even for most cultivators, the soul was extremely mysterious.

He glanced at Lin Bufan and had some thoughts in his mind - could it be that the Great Free Demon Ancestor had made special achievements in the field of spirit and soul?

When Lin Bufan was looked at by him, his face became even more panicked, and he admitted his mistake and said, "Sir, I was wrong!"

Zheng Fa looked at him without saying anything.

No one wants to have their blood drawn.

But this is Lin Bufan's own choice. To some extent, this is called buying life.

This person was born into a demon sect, so he does have more thoughts than others.

"You think that since you are mine, after I leave Jiushan Sect... others won't dare to punish you? Maybe they will even have to provide for you?"

He looked at Lin Bufan and said, his tone devoid of emotion.

Even though Lin Bufan was born into a demonic family, he is now Zheng Fa's servant.

His status in the Jiushan Sect was actually somewhat special—aren’t the housekeepers in the Zhao Mansion also servants? “I…”

Lin Bufan broke out in sweat, it was obvious that Zheng Fa had mentioned some of his secret thoughts.

He fell to his knees, with his head down, unable to speak for a long time.

Zheng Fa looked at him and didn't say anything for a long time.

The cold sweat on his face was getting more and more.

"Get up." Zheng Fa waved his hand and asked him to stand up, as if he had let the matter go.

Lin Bufan looked at Zheng Fa with some disbelief in his eyes.

"I don't like to torture anyone." Zheng Fa looked at him seriously and said.

“…”

"I won't be mysterious, I will just tell you clearly." Zheng Fa touched the soul seal in his hand and said softly: "If you still have these little thoughts, well, I am a soft-hearted person..."

Senior Sister Yuan on the side curled her lips.

"I'll give you a good time.

Senior Sister Yuan: “?”

"Do you understand?"

"Yes!" Lin Bufan shuddered.

"Do you know how to do this special training for the Nine Mountains Sect disciples?"

"Understood!" Lin Bufan said loudly: "I will do my best!"

"You guys should step back first."

…

Watching them slowly walk out of the room, Senior Sister Yuan asked, "Junior Brother, are you really going to kill Lin Bufan?"

"Sister, there isn't much else here, but there are too many disciples of the Great Freedom Demon Sect."

“…”

Zheng Fa didn't care about Senior Sister Yuan's silence.

He walked towards the hall where Uncle Pang was.

Senior Sister Yuan asked from behind: "Junior Brother, where are you going?"

"I have something to discuss with Uncle Pang."

"I'm going too!"

…

In the main hall, after listening to Zheng Fa's thoughts, Uncle Pang opened his mouth, a little shocked.

"You mean... using a magic talisman in the market to buy, no, offer a bounty... for the blood of a disciple of the Great Freedom Demon Sect?"

"right."

"Two liters of blood from a Great Freedom Demon Sect disciple at the Foundation Establishment stage can be exchanged for one hundred Xuan-grade talismans?"

"We won't lose money. For a Xuan-grade talisman, one talisman can print 100 pieces." Zheng Fa calculated for him: "Two liters means 200 pieces. Excluding the consumption of talisman paper and spiritual ink, there will be at least a profit of ten spiritual stones."

After hearing this, Uncle Pang slowly closed his mouth.

He pondered for a while and said, "There are so many talismans now, shouldn't the price also go down?"

"At most, it's just not profitable. Isn't this bounty... under our control? We can just stop offering it when the time comes."

Zheng Fa explained.

Uncle Pang was convinced. He pinched his chin and said, "We don't want the ones in the Qi Refining Stage?"

"Uncle Master, the biggest threat in the Thunder Pool is still those in the Foundation Establishment Stage... As for the Qi Refining Stage, are our Nine Mountain Sect disciples so useless?"

Zheng Fa wanted to use the reward to reduce the casualties among the disciples of Jiushan Sect.

But he is not an old hen, can he protect all the disciples of Jiushan Sect?

"It's good that you can figure this out." Uncle Pang nodded, his tone quite approving.

"Li Nuo... Li Nuo." Uncle Pang shook his head and looked at Zheng Fa with an inexplicable admiration: "I heard that it was you who wanted to give him the spirit stone for research, and even nephew Zhang couldn't stop him."

"Who would have thought that he would actually cause such a big trouble!"

Uncle Pang sighed and said, "Li Nuo and his son have been hanging around in my Jiushan Sect for more than a hundred years. We old people are really blind!"

"Uncle Master, you can't say that..."

"Especially the one with the surname Huang! Li Nuo's father has some connection with her!"

“…”

Zheng Fa twitched his lips and said truthfully: "Uncle Master, it is understandable that everyone didn't take Li Nuo seriously before. If it weren't for now, I wouldn't have taken out this talisman technique."

"...Yes, whether it's money or life, I, the disciple of Jiushan Sect, am not stupid."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The art of talismans was not popular in the past because it would destroy the livelihoods of most of the disciples of the Jiushan Sect.

The situation now is different from what it was then.

On the one hand, Zheng Fa's current method is equivalent to hiring mercenaries to deal with the Great Freedom Demon Cult.

To put it bluntly, it was to save their lives.

No one can say it's bad.

On the other hand, the Great Freedom Demon Cult is already close at hand, and the struggle is intensifying.

Most people are busy fighting against the demons.

No time to draw talismans.

To put it in a not very accurate analogy, it is equivalent to destroying workers' jobs when you play with automation.

When the war breaks out, all the workers go to the front lines, and automation is used to make up for the shortage of labor.

"Then what do you want to ask me?"

"I'm afraid of offending the Great Freedom Demon Sect too much."

Zheng Fa honestly expressed his concerns.

This thing is too unfriendly to the Great Freedom Demon Sect.

"Whether to offend or not, do we have a choice now?" Uncle Pang sighed and said, "Why do you think your master would never leave Jiushan Sect even if he died?"

“…”

"There is another question. After the bounty is released, will anyone really go to fight the Great Freedom Demon Sect?"

Uncle Pang glanced at him with a strange look.

"One hundred Xuan-grade talismans and dozens of spirit stones, who wouldn't be tempted?"

“…”

"Junior Brother Zheng, you don't understand those independent cultivators." Uncle Pang sighed, "They are so poor that it's heartbreaking."

…

Zheng Fa called Senior Brother Yang and others, told them the content of the reward, and asked him to publicize it in the market later.

"...Junior Brother Zheng, this reward isn't quite fair..." Unexpectedly, Senior Brother Yang hesitated and refused to leave, and even seemed to have some opinions to offer.

"Um?"

"This is for people outside. Can we, the disciples of the Nine Mountains Sect, also participate?"

“…”

Zheng Fa looked at Senior Brother Yang.

Didn't he come up with this idea just to prevent these people from dying in vain?

result……

Senior Brother Yang looked at Zheng Fa, as if a little embarrassed, but said in a loud voice: "Slaying demons and eliminating evil has always been my dream..."

“…”

Seeing the others nodding, Zheng Fa couldn't help but cover his forehead and said, "Whoever wants to go to the Thunder Pool must pass his test."

He pointed at Lin Bufan beside him.

Senior Brother Yang and others looked at him with sharp eyes and rubbed their hands ready to fight.

Lin Bufan: “…”

…

What Zheng Fa didn't expect was that the reward had just been issued.

A person who didn't look like someone who would be interested in these spiritual stones came to the door.

"Brother Zheng Dao!"

When Zheng Fa heard Uncle Pang say that Yan Wushuang was coming to visit, he was a little puzzled.

"Brother Yan." Zheng Fa greeted him warmly. It was thanks to him that he was able to get the news about Chen Ting.

"Is the bounty in your market true?"

As soon as Yan Wushuang came in, he asked about the bounty that had just been offered.

"It's true, but Brother Yan, you..."

Who is this person?

The true teachings of the Tianhe School.

Can this be missing?

"Brother Zheng, you don't know that I have to travel all over the world, make friends with people who share the same interests, and build an organization - everything requires money." Yan Wushuang sighed, "I am so strapped for cash!"

“…”

Zheng Fa remembered that when this man was resisting the thunder, he really had nothing under his crane cloak.

At that time, he also thought that this was the fashion of the Tianhe School.

Now it seems - is it because of poverty? After figuring this out, Zheng Fa said to Yan Wushuang: "The reward is real."

"That's fine." Yan Wushuang was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "If I... catch you a live one, how much will you give me?"

Zheng Fa was stunned.

He looked at Yan Wushuang, who had a square face and a righteous expression.

Are you the evil demon slave trader?
