After Weng Xia's explanation, Shen Lian learned about the auction at Zhanyun Mountain.
The auction did attract quite a few cultivators, and it also produced many magical instruments, pills, talismans, etc. that were rare even for cultivators in the late stage of Qi training.
But the three major markets only recruited independent cultivators, and there were too many strange people mixed in.
In the market town, everyone was still trying to restrain themselves.
It is said that Zhanyun Mountain is at the same distance from the three major markets, but it also means that this place is not close to any of the three major markets.
Without the restraint of the sect's law enforcement team, that guy and the other independent cultivators went crazy trying to gain points for the King of Hell.
It can be said that the first joint auction of the three major cities suffered a serious blow.
After expressing his feelings for the unfortunate experiences of his fellow Taoists, Shen Lian took out the miasma-removing talisman he had drawn.
When you're out there in the world, what matters is stability. There's no point in fighting and killing.
"Recently, the three major markets have been closely connected. Some powerful Taoist friends have been traveling back and forth across the mountains and fields, and they inevitably need high-level miasma-removing talismans. Brother, you really came to the right place by coming to the market."
Weng Xia took the talisman to dispel miasma and examined it.
"Of course, my brother has this skill, so he is popular wherever he goes."
"Bring me three bottles of top-grade spiritual ink, five dozen top-grade talisman papers, and two top-grade talisman pens."
A bottle of first-grade superior spiritual ink costs one hundred and fifty spirit stones.
A dozen of talisman papers cost thirty spirit stones, and talisman pens are even more expensive, 50% to twice as expensive as magic tools of the same tier.
A bottle of spiritual ink can be used twenty times, and each use costs seven and a half spiritual stones.
A talisman pen costs 150 yuan and can be used for drawing about 100 times.
By this calculation, the cost of the miasma-removing talisman is just about twelve yuan.
"By the way, there's a new fun thing. You'll definitely like it."
After settling the bill, Weng Xia suddenly thought of something and lowered his head to search in his storage bag.
The storage bag on him did not belong to him, but to the public treasury of Jubao Tower.
"Look, this is something specially made for you talisman masters."
A magical instrument one foot in size with two layers, which could rotate coaxially like a compass, appeared in Shen Lian's hand.
"Talisman array plate."
Shen Lian recognized the magic weapon at a glance.
The talisman array plate is a special magical tool, which is specially created for talisman masters.
Compared with the monks who specialize in killing, the talisman master is always a step slower in activating talismans on the spot.
Sometimes, the sword energy has already hit the head before the talisman is activated.
He practiced talismans for several years and composed dozens of talismans. But when he first met in battle, before he could use his talismans, his head was chopped off by the sword.
Alas, how sad is my talisman master.
The talisman array plate is one in which talismans are stuffed in advance, so that it is in a quasi-activated state before attacking the enemy.
When fighting, all you need is a thought to release the prepared talismans.
He can also quickly send out dozens or even hundreds of talismans at a time while consuming very little of his own spiritual energy.
It has the same function as the talisman array he inherited.
Shen Lian looked at the talisman array plate in his hand again and again, and he liked this thing.
After being attacked at home by someone in the market town and then going to the black market twice to kill the robbers, he became more and more proficient in the talisman array.
Ordinary cultivators in the late stage of Qi training are no longer a threat. He has currently adjusted the danger level to himself to the old monsters in the ninth stage of Qi training and the foundation-building cultivators.
Otherwise, he would not have collected poisons and refined the Bailing Poison.
It helps to protect yourself. Only by preparing in advance can you be prepared for any eventuality.
The more cards you have, the stronger your counterattack ability will be, creating unexpected effects.
You can do without it, but you can’t live without it.
"Three hundred and fifty spirit stones at least."
Weng Xia spoke softly.
Shen Lian did not think it was too expensive, as the talisman array plate was more expensive than magical instruments of the same level.
After a preliminary inspection, he found that this talisman array plate could embed twenty-seven different talismans.
"Just this one?"
"This is the only one I saw in the warehouse and I kept it for myself."
Especially after Shen Lian became a top-grade talisman master, the quality of the top-grade miasma-removing talismans became better and more in short supply, and the commission he received also increased a lot.
He has a high status in the building, and the most direct benefit is that every time spiritual objects are delivered, he can select them before other managers.
"I want this one."
Having obtained a magical weapon that suits him, Shen Lian was in a good mood. He went to buy some spiritual rice and then slowly returned to his residence.
Courtyard No. 23, Ding.
The medicinal herbs growing in the spiritual fields sway.
But I never saw anyone growing the medicine.
Shen Lian returned upstairs and happily began to refine the talisman array disk he had just obtained.
Most first-level magical instruments have no names, and are named by the users according to their own preferences.
Only when the magic weapon reaches the second level will the weapon refiner give it a name.
Spiritual power was slowly injected into the talisman array, and three curved restriction marks appeared inside the array.
In the middle of the three prohibitions, there are nine energy supply positions inlaid with spirit stones.
The talismans embedded in the array plate require spirit stones as energy to activate.
While refining the talisman array, Shen Lian was thinking about how to arrange the combination of twenty-seven talismans to unleash the greatest power.
After becoming a top-grade talisman master, he inherited thousands of talismans of various kinds.
"Trapped... killed..."
After some thought, Shen Lian felt that the two types of talismans, trapping and killing, were not safe.
A trapped beast will still fight, let alone a monk.
"I still need to add some poison..."
Among the top-grade talismans passed down in history, there is a kind called the Spirit Poison Talisman, which needs to be drawn with spiritual ink made from poison.
There is no ready-made poison ink in the market, but Shen Lian has taught himself.
While trapping, it releases a deadly poison.
Buzz——
It took less than half a day to refine the talisman array disk, turning into a disk flashing with red light, and flew around Shen Lian.
Shen Lian stood up and walked to the balcony, stretching his body while looking outside.
Then I saw a group of monks from the Bishui Sect patrolling the street outside the courtyard.
The sun rose from the west today.
The uncles of the Bishui Sect's law enforcement team finally knew when to take up their posts.
Shen Lian watched the law enforcement team go away quietly.
A little strange.
In the past, the monks of the Bishui Sect's law enforcement team almost only received wages without doing any work.
Especially when there are demonic practices or fighting in the outer houses of the market town, it depends on your mood whether you go or not.
What's the point of patrolling the streets in such a serious manner? Shaking his head, Shen Lian returned to the talisman making room and prepared to start drawing talismans.
After a busy whole day, near evening, Shen Lian ran to the balcony to steam the spiritual rice and looked at the street.
I discovered that there was another team of law enforcement monks patrolling the streets.
In the next few days, every time Shen Lian felt like eating spiritual rice, he would look outside.
The Bishui Sect's law enforcement team has really changed their disposition and become good team members who punch in on time for work.
This made Shen Lian feel a little confused. The disciples of the Bishui Sect, even the servants, looked down on the independent cultivators and regarded them as pigs and dogs.
It is difficult to change one's nature, and the law enforcement team is composed of disciples from the sect. Their arrogance towards independent cultivators has long been ingrained in their bones.
A group of proud immortal cultivators from a sect were patrolling for the low-level spiritual root cultivators. Would they be willing to do so? Shen Lian, who cared most about his own safety, was very sensitive to changes in the surrounding environment.
He felt that there might be some changes in the market.
