Chapter 104 A Losing Transaction
"Junior sister, is this the rune you drew? It's so special!"
“…Sister Ying’er, this is a special way of writing my name.”
"Junior sister, you are so amazing that you can even integrate your name into the rune. Then can you also sign my palm world?"
Zhong Ling'er looked at her signature and twitched her lips. What Xuanyuan Ying'er said was right. In modern times it is called an artistic signature, in ancient times it is called a cursive signature, and in the world of immortal cultivation it is called a rune signature. It is a very vivid and incisive summary.
After signing the remaining names, Zhong Ling'er collected 10,000 spirit stones and started talking about some interesting things that happened in the competition.
Zhong Ling'er was very good at telling stories, and Xuanyuan Ying'er smiled and picked up several pieces of meat for her. The two of them soon began to talk about everything.
Under Zhong Ling'er's deliberate trickery, Xuanyuan Ying'er cooperated and told her a lot of information.
The children of the Xuanyuan family can enter the Divine Weapon Valley when they reach the Golden Core Stage. The purpose of their entry is to obtain weapons that suit them. The weapons inside are indeed of high grade and very difficult to obtain. For example, she had her eyes on a water-based Yunshang sword, but she couldn't get it after chasing it for a day and a night, and was ridiculed for a long time.
The reason why the Xuanyuan family was willing to give the family secret realm to the Dongzhou sect for use was not only to use the Dongzhou sect's hand to explore the secret realm, but mainly to do it for everyone in the immortal cultivation world to see how big the gap between them and the Tianji Pavilion was. Moreover, Dongzhou and Nanzhou are adjacent to each other, and the two states are on good terms, which serves as a warning to the Tianji Pavilion not to stretch its hands too far.
Although the decision of the five of them to enter the secret realm with Dongzhou's direct disciple was a spur of the moment decision, it was also based on the plan of the head of the Xuanyuan family. He wanted to use Dongzhou's direct disciple to highlight his own descendants and announce to the world that the new generation of the Xuanyuan family has grown up, and that they are all geniuses who can crush Dongzhou's direct disciple.
Zhong Ling'er was speechless. "Just so you can step on us to become famous, then your master has not considered your safety?"
"Safe, of course it's safe. That's our family's trial ground. We've been to the developed areas so many times, how can it not be safe? The map you see is only a part of it. The actual places our family has explored are much more than what we've shown you."
"To be honest, the Patriarch doesn't think you can help us explore many unknown areas. Your strength is there. And the Patriarch is not afraid that you will get any good things. After all, we have taken out the real good things in advance."
“Are there really magical weapons there?”
"Junior sister, let alone the magic weapons, even the heavenly grade top-grade Yunshang sword I just mentioned is hard to get. When you go in, all you can really do is kill monsters and ghosts, and then get some merit."
"A little merit?"
Zhong Ling'er was shocked. This was something they had overlooked. Everyone was excited to hear about the merits, but they didn't know how much merits there were. Yes, if there were really a lot of merits, why would the Xuanyuan family give them for free?
"Yeah, think about it, we have explored those places, killed a wave of monsters, and the level of the monsters in the periphery is not high. How much merit can we get no matter how many we kill? If merit is so easy to get, why don't we see it in our world?"
Zhong Ling'er suddenly felt that the meat in her mouth was not tasty anymore. She thought she could make a big profit, but in the end it felt like she had made a loss.
After taking a vicious bite of the meat, Zhong Ling'er decided to make some preparations. She, Zhong Ling'er, only eats meat and would never suffer any loss.
Zhong Ling'er and the other person didn't hide for too long, as Pavilion Master Xuanyuan came over with an old man.
"You two girls ran pretty fast, but it took Elder Nanming a long time to find you."
Elder Nanming laughed loudly and said it was okay, but his eyes were always looking at Zhong Ling'er, as if with some nostalgia.
"You must be Zhong Ling'er, right? My father and I are good friends. He used to often brag about how smart his daughter is. I thought he was just being affectionate towards his daughter, but now it seems that you deserve the praise."
For some reason, Zhong Ling'er felt a sense of familiarity when she heard him mention her father.
"Is Elder Nanming also a formation master?"
"No, I'm a talisman master, so when I heard that you also practiced talismans, I regretted it so much that I really wanted to rush to Taiqiong Sect to snatch you back. If I had visited your home earlier, you might have become my disciple."
Zhong Ling'er smiled but did not comment on this. Not long ago, no one was willing to accept her, forcing her to do everything she could to keep her place as a disciple. Now that she has made a name for herself, everyone wants to be her master, and she is not someone that everyone will accept.
Elder Nanming seemed to know what Zhong Ling'er was thinking. He sighed softly, took out a talisman and asked, "This talisman for marking the route was drawn by you, right? I have tried to draw it several times, but I always fail to grasp the subtlety of it. Are you willing to teach me how to draw this talisman? You can set the conditions. This talisman is for the Xuanyuan family, and everything needed will be provided by the family."
Zhong Ling'er's eyes lit up and she turned to look at Pavilion Master Xuanyuan. Pavilion Master Xuanyuan looked at Elder Nanming and smiled bitterly, but nodded to Zhong Ling'er.
"Yes, the Xuanyuan family will definitely explore the secret realm of the Divine Weapon Valley completely. After you leave, they will arrange people to clean up each area one by one. The demand for this kind of road-recording talisman will be very high, so there must be someone in the family who can master the drawing method of this talisman. You can ask for anything you want to exchange."
"Does Elder Nanming know space magic?"
"Space magic?" Elder Nanming was stunned for a moment, then shook his head in embarrassment, "So it was space magic, no wonder there were so many things I couldn't understand."
This is a difficult problem. Space magic is so mysterious. If one needs to practice space magic before being able to draw this talisman, then he may have to wait for hundreds of years.
Zhong Ling'er gestured with her hand as if it was a gun, and thought for a while with her chin in her hand.
"If you don't know how to do it, it will be difficult for me to teach you, but it's not impossible to learn it."
Upon hearing that there was still a way, Pavilion Master Xuanyuan immediately said, "Little friend Zhong, as long as you can learn it, then please take the trouble."
"I'll teach you how to draw talismans, but do you have to teach me something else? If not, can you let me go to your library to read for a day? If not, you can give me any book on formations, talismans, or swordsmanship, but I only want the best quality ones."
Pavilion Master Xuanyuan laughed, "Little friend Zhong, there is no need to choose. I will make the decision. You can stay in the Xuanyuan family's library for a day. You can read the exercises in it. What do you think?"
Zhong Ling'er was overjoyed. She stretched out her little hand and clapped it with Pavilion Master Xuanyuan's. "Then it's a deal. I'll go find Elder Nanming after I finish eating the meat."
Pavilion Master Xuanyuan achieved his goal and left happily with Elder Nanming. Xuanyuan Ying'er touched Zhong Ling'er's head but sighed.
"Junior sister, you are at a disadvantage. Our library has five floors, and each floor has nearly ten thousand books. You can't even read all the titles in one day, let alone find a book that suits you. You should have just asked for a heaven-level technique."
