Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 131 Apricot Yellow Flag

Seeing the look on the other person's face, Wei Songnian understood, laughed twice, and changed the subject:

"There aren't many talisman plates circulating on the market. I need to inquire about their specific prices."

Come to think of it, if talisman plates were easy to make, they wouldn't be so rare on the market.

However, it may also be that his level was too low before and he had no access to similar business.

At this time, he realized that no matter how high the profit of the talisman plate was, as long as the quantity was not large enough, it would be better to sell talismans if he wanted to earn spirit stones.

Ji An nodded slightly. Making talisman plates was too time-consuming, but low-level talisman plates were bound to have low profits.

The reason for making the explosive fire talisman disk is to hone the craft and prepare for making more advanced talisman disks in the future.

The two returned to the stone house in Hantan and sat down. Wei Songnian leaned forward slightly and asked:

"Brother, what kind of talismans can you make now, and what grade are they?"

Although he often purchased talismans from here, most of them were mid-grade talismans, and he rarely got high-grade talismans.

“Currently, we only have Explosive Flame Talismans, both first-grade, mid-grade and top-grade.

I'm in contact with Senior Brother Liu Yu. If I can buy high-level animal hides and blood essence from him, I can try to draw a first-grade, top-grade Explosion Talisman, and I can sell it to you."

Ji An answered generously that high-level talisman-making materials were very expensive, so he would definitely sell a large portion of them.

Although selling by yourself brings the highest profit, the time cost is also high, so it is more cost-effective to find an agent.

He and Wei Songnian have been cooperating for many years, and the other party's purchase price is higher than those of talisman shops, so of course they can continue to cooperate.

The other party had lent him things on credit many times, and he remembered this favor.

Wei Songnian rubbed his hands and said with an apologetic smile:

"Thank you for your care, Senior Brother. However, I still suggest that you explore more types of talismans."

It is very difficult to find a reliable talisman maker. The talismans he draws are all fine products. He has accumulated many repeat customers over the years.

If the other party could draw more talismans, he wouldn't have to work so hard to find a cooperating talisman master.

“Yes, I practice the Wood Element Kung Fu, and I will definitely sell some Wood Element Talismans in the future.

Wood-type spells are better at healing, and these types of talismans consume a lot of energy."

Ji An said that after the outbreak of the demon disaster, the consumption of healing talismans has increased and the market prospects are broad.

After he has improved the Green Wood Transformation Technique to the great perfection level, he will prepare to explore other wood-related magics.

He paused and then said:

"Junior Brother, are the prices of various spiritual items on the market much different now than before the sect issued the mandatory mission?"

The other party is well-informed and has a wide range of interests. He should have the habit of recording various prices for a long time. It is definitely a good idea to ask him such questions.

"Ever since the sect's spiritual vein upgrade was completed, the price of these spiritual items has dropped rapidly. In the past two months, the price has remained at about 1.2 times that of fifteen years ago."

“Is there still room for decline?”

“I don’t think there’s going to be much room to fall anytime soon.”

Ji An nodded slightly and took out a jade slip from his storage bag:

"Please help me collect fifty spiritual objects here. You can calculate the price first, and I will give you the spiritual stones."

The price of spiritual objects has fallen, and it’s time to practice the Glazed Jade Bone Body.

He was looking forward to the effect of this body-refining technique, which was said to allow rapid progress in skin refinement as long as the external objects were sufficient.

I don't ask for anything else. As long as the defensive effect after the first level of skin refining can be comparable to the golden armor technique at the great perfection level, I will be profitable.

"What's it worth? I don't need a deposit, Senior Brother."

Wei Songnian took the jade slip with great courage and probed his spiritual consciousness into it to read the spiritual objects recorded in it.

At this moment, he only felt his expression stiff and his cheeks slightly burning.

According to preliminary estimates, it would take at least three thousand spirit stones to make fifty copies of the things here.

Now he has less than 800 spirit stones available, and he needs to keep some for purchasing magic arrays and spiritual vein nodes, as well as for the foundation-building ceremony.

"How many spirit stones will it cost?"

Ji An suppressed his laughter and said calmly that the quantity he needed was quite large and it was bound to cost a lot of money.

Wei Songnian coughed twice to hide his embarrassment, held up four fingers, and said:
"Three thousand spirit stones."

He realized something was wrong and bent another finger.

Ji An took out thirty medium-grade spirit stones and said:
"If it's not enough, I'll give you more."

The other party has just established his foundation and needs spirit stones in many places, and he doesn't have the financial resources to help him pay for it.

“When are you moving here?”

"After surveying the terrain today, I will return to the Xiaozhushan family headquarters, then go to Qingyun Immortal City to purchase the magic circle and equip these spiritual objects. I estimate that I will be back in about a month."

Wei Songnian calculated the schedule and said that his family helped a lot when exchanging for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Now that he had successfully established his foundation, of course he had to go back to his family to see if there was anything he could help with and to show off at the same time.

"Stay here for lunch. I'll give you a farewell party."

Ji An took out three more talisman plates and said:
"Take these things to Xiancheng and sell them together."

When Liangqiu and the other man came back and saw that Wei Songnian had successfully established his foundation, they were both delighted.

The four of them had a banquet at noon and were slightly tipsy.

In a flash, another half month passed. Ji An finished his training and immersed his mind in the stone turtle.

[Master: Ji An]

[Tao Yun: Gold 2.2, Fire 0.6, Earth 3.1]

[Spiritual Motives: Kan Spirit 22.8, Gen Spirit 17.4, Zhen Spirit 7.9, Xun Spirit 40.2, Kun Spirit 5.1, Qian Spirit 55.4, Dui Spirit 45.3, Li Spirit 31.1] [Spell: Green Wood Transformation (55% Complete)]

Thick Earth Returning to Origin Mantra (78% complete)

The Art of Spring Breeze and Rain (75% complete)

Golden Light Technique (50% Perfection)

Exploding Fireball (28% complete).]

Since the various Dao seeds were upgraded to the lower level, the efficiency of various spells has increased by 20% compared to before.

With the help of inspiration, after five years, all planting spells can be upgraded to the level of great perfection.

He has already obtained nine out of ten Dao seeds. In the future, he will focus on the Dielang Jue to obtain the Dao seed of the Renshui Dao.

Ji An walked out of the cave and released his magic power to nourish the red cloud pine. The tips of the pine needles shone brightly like a fire tree.

Perhaps the time has come, or perhaps it is due to the benefit of the spiritual vein upgrade, the spiritual pines have both been upgraded to the first-grade top grade.

After spending two quarters of an hour to warm up the spiritual pine, Ji An used the shuttle to leave Chiyan Peak.

Ten years have passed, and he no longer believes that there will be assassins lurking in ambush. Even if there are, as long as they have not reached the Chaoyuan period, he feels that he can fight.

Although he is only at the third level of foundation building, he possesses spells of the perfect level, and his combat power should be no worse than those cultivators at the late stage of foundation building.

Thinking of this, Ji An felt that he should find a time to make an appointment with Senior Brother Liu Yu to exchange ideas.

Red Copper Mountain.

A strange look flashed in Zhang Yuanshan's eyes, and he smiled kindly:
"Congratulations, Junior Brother, on breaking through the third level of foundation building. You've broken through two levels in ten years. This is truly commendable."

He only broke through to the third level of foundation building two years ago, but he had established the foundation six or seven years earlier than the other party.

He felt a sense of urgency in his heart. If this continued, the other party would surpass him in a few years.

Ji An bowed:

"Congratulations, I have been trying my best to keep up with my senior brother."

"It's really not easy to meet my junior brother outside of Scarlet Flame Peak."

Zhang Yuanshan smiled secretly in his heart. He had also heard that the other party was called "Stone Turtle Monk" by some alchemists.

Ji An laughed and said:

"I'd like to bother you more, but I'm afraid it will take up your time for refining.

I came here today to consult with you. I want to refine a defensive spiritual weapon. I wonder if you can help me?"

The other party has a talent for refining equipment. If his conditions can be met, of course we have to take care of his business.

If the other party is unable to refine it, we can also help introduce a skilled refiner.

"Junior brother, you are so generous! The first move you make is a spiritual weapon!

However, controlling a spiritual weapon consumes a lot of mana, and at your current level, I'm afraid you won't be able to control it for long."

Zhang Yuanshan bared his teeth, shook his head somewhat helplessly, and said with a wry smile:
"My cultivation level is not high enough, and my spiritual awareness is not strong enough. I can't refine it now."

"This is to deal with demonic disasters, so of course we need something solid to feel safe."

Ji An replied that when the demon disaster broke out, he should be able to break through to the middle stage of foundation building, and the situation would be much better then.

"Well, Junior Brother has a long-term vision.

I will introduce Brother Zhao Lei to you, my junior. He is a disciple of Uncle Zhu Xiangrong and his weapon refining skills are much higher than mine."

Zhang Yuanshan said, took out the communication sword and activated it, then said:
"Let's wait a moment. Senior Brother Zhao's cave is at the top of Red Copper Mountain. He will be able to reply to us soon."

The maid brought spiritual tea, and the two began to exchange their experiences in cultivation, each gaining something.

Half an hour later, a rough voice came from outside the cave:

"Brother Zhang, I'm Zhao Lei."

"Senior Brother Zhao is here, I'll go to greet him," Zhang Yuanshan stood up.

Ji An then stood up and said, "Let's go together."

It seems that the task of refining the spiritual weapon will most likely fall on Senior Brother Zhao, so go out to greet him as a sign of respect.

The two of them left the cave, and the man said "Huh" and laughed:

"Ji An, are you here too?"

Ji An hurriedly bowed: "Greetings, Senior Brother Zhao!"

On the day when the Red Flame Peak erupted, his two uncles Zhu Xiangrong and Jia Yu helped him refine the formation plate. This uncle was the cultivator who took out the wind-grinded copper.

"Do you know?"

Zhang Yuanshan was surprised. Junior Brother Ji had not left Chiyan Peak for many years, and Senior Brother Zhao also stayed in Chitong Mountain most of the time. The possibility of the two knowing each other was very slim.

After listening to Ji An's brief account of what happened that day, Zhang Yuanshan was filled with envy.

"You can even pick up spiritual objects. How could I not come across such a good thing!"

Zhao Lei was impatient. As soon as he sat down in the cave, he asked:

"It seems that Junior Brother Ji wants to customize a spiritual weapon. I wonder what your requirements are?
"Old Zhao, I've been refining weapons for a hundred years, and have refined no fewer than eighty second-grade, low-grade spiritual weapons. I've also managed to refine four second-grade, mid-grade spiritual weapons."

He was obsessed with studying the art of refining weapons, and every time he refined them was a happy moment for him.

"A defensive spiritual weapon. The stronger the defense, the better. It's best if it doesn't affect flight."

Ji An felt relieved. The other party was able to refine a second-grade mid-grade spiritual weapon, so his craftsmanship must be excellent.

"The strongest defense must be the Earth Element. I can refine a spiritual weapon called the Apricot Yellow Flag, which can gather the Wu and Ji Earth to protect the entire body. Ordinary spiritual weapons will find it difficult to break through this layer of protective spiritual light.

However, with Junior Brother's current level of cultivation, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to control it for a long time."
