The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, another three hundred years have passed.

Xiao Han is now a fifth-grade talisman master and is attacking a sixth-grade talisman master with all his strength.

However, the higher the grade of the runes you learn, the greater the cost.

Xiao Han, who had just bought a dozen blank talisman papers for sixth-grade talismans, sat at the table for drawing talismans, counting his belongings and sighing heavily.

The cost of talisman paper for high-level talismans is very high, and if you want to be proficient in drawing talismans, you need to practice using a lot of talisman paper.

Especially for a talisman master like her who does not have very good talent and wants to make up for her shortcomings with hard work and climb up step by step, the cost of learning each high-level talisman is astonishing.

Xiao Han sometimes wondered whether he should stop working so hard and just learn slowly over thousands of years?

But if she loses this passion for learning and this determination, she doesn't know if she will lose the direction of her life?

Indeed, the biggest task of cultivating immortals is to practice, to improve one's cultivation step by step, to climb to the top of the road to immortality, and the ultimate goal is to live as long as heaven.

But this goal is a hundred times more difficult than becoming a master of talismans.

Whether it is cultivating to the top of the path to immortality or becoming a master of talismans, for Xiao Han, they are all things out of reach.

But she felt that she could still think about becoming a master of talismans.

Daily practice is just like eating and drinking for ordinary people. It is a basic survival behavior, but other things are the meaning of life.

In life, one must always have a goal to strive for, so in addition to daily practice like eating and drinking water, she still needs to have a goal to strive for.

Therefore, no matter how difficult the path to becoming a master of talismans is, she must keep going without stopping for a moment.

However, even though she was determined to continue learning high-level talismans, the remaining practical problems were now before her. Her financial situation did not allow for unlimited practice.

She used to learn fifth-grade talismans, and now she can draw fourth-grade talismans and sell them for immortal stones. She uses this income to support the cost of hiring a tutor, as well as the cost of buying blank talisman paper and ink.

But now, in order to learn the sixth-grade talisman, the cost of a blank piece of talisman paper would require the immortal stones she earned from selling fourth-grade talismans in a month.

As for selling fifth-grade talismans, it was not that she was unwilling to sell them, but the higher the level of the talismans, the fewer people would buy them, and the sales were slow.

Slow sales naturally lead to a small number of acquisitions.

What's more, Quanfu Pavilion has its own dedicated talisman master after all. In the past, the number of her fourth-grade talismans purchased was limited, and the number of her fifth-grade talismans purchased was even lower.

If there is no major war in Yanzhou, the consumption of high-level talismans will naturally be very slow.

If Xiao Han did not have the support of her family or a powerful force to support her study expenses, she would not be able to make ends meet if she wanted to be self-sufficient.

In fact, her current level of talisman skills was in an awkward position, neither too high nor too low. If she could become a sixth-rank talisman master, there would be some small and medium-sized forces willing to hire her as a guest official, or she could go to the Talisman Alliance to teach and earn money.

Unfortunately, the rank of a fifth-grade talisman master is too low, and she can only teach those novice talisman masters. The income is too little, and it cannot support her to practice the sixth-grade talismans extensively.

So what she had to do was to find some more treasures to exchange for money.

Last time in the Abyss of Heavenly Prison, the only treasure that could be exchanged for money was a demon pill of the Earthly Immortal Realm obtained from the half-demon Liu Ruyan. Shui Wuhen refused to take it, so she took advantage of it and got it all for herself.

Then there are the longevity fish and the yin-yang fish obtained in the Milky Way.

The Yin-Yang Fish can help one attain enlightenment and break through the barriers of realms. This kind of treasure definitely cannot be sold.

Finally, there is the spiritual liquid obtained from the fox demon and the Netherworld Flower in the strange space.

Speaking of these treasures, the only ones that can be sold are demon pills and spiritual liquids.

Because she wanted to keep the longevity fish in case she, her relatives and friends might need it in the future.

The demon pills and spiritual liquids have been sold over the past few hundred years, so the problem Xiao Han faces now is that if he wants to practice sixth-grade talismans in large quantities, he needs to earn a lot of money to cover his expenses.

Thinking about it, I have been staying in Qianfu City for two or three hundred years since I came out of the Abyss of Heavenly Prison. It’s time to go out for a walk.

However, she still needs to think carefully about where to look for treasure, or where to make money.

In the past, the ignorant were fearless in places like the Abyss of Heavenly Prison, but now she dared not enter it anymore.

So, it's better to look for treasures in places where the risks are somewhat manageable. Don't try to make a fortune, just a little bit will do.

I don’t know how long I will be away this time, and my rent is about to expire.

She simply gave up the lease and packed all the daily necessities in the house, including the table and chairs she often used to draw talismans, into a storage bracelet. Then she took Croton and prepared to go out treasure hunting.

Above the Seven Star Mountains, Xiao Han looked at the towering ancient trees and high peaks reaching into the clouds below and decided to search for treasure here.

This is the place suitable for treasure hunting that she found from the limited information.

The Seven Star Mountains were a place where humans and demons mixed together. The relationship between humans and demons in the fairy world was not good, and there were a large number of demons in the Seven Star Mountains.

It’s just that this area has good spiritual energy, so the human race naturally also took a fancy to the resources here, and both sides occupied half of the territory.

The special area composed of seven large mountains in the middle of the entire mountain range, where the name of Qixing Mountain comes from, has become the dividing line between the human race and the demon race, and is also a treasure hunting place for many people.

According to the information Xiao Han obtained, even communication magic tools cannot be used inside Qixing Mountain, and the range that spiritual sense can scan is less than ten miles. Many rare spiritual plants are bred there.

As for danger, there is naturally a possibility of encountering transformed demon cultivators.

Xiao Han felt that with the help of Badou, the god of hearing, he could still make a breakthrough.

The mountain with seven peaks reaching into the sky is very recognizable, so Xiao Han randomly chose a place and landed.

There is thick fog and towering ancient trees at the foot of the mountain, and spiritual awareness is limited. No wonder anyone who comes in can always find some good things.

Xiao Han is now like a locust passing through the territory. She will not let go of any spiritual plants that are worth more than a hundred fairy stones, or even monsters in the human fairyland.

There is no other way. I am so poor that I can only sweep the area hard to recover my health.

Badou’s mission is to occupy the commanding heights and immediately notify Xiao Han if he discovers any monsters or human cultivators.

Xiao Han is now in the Golden Immortal Realm, and the only ones who can threaten her are the human cultivators and demon cultivators in the Nine Heavens Mysterious Immortal Realm.

Although she couldn't beat him, she had a small teleportation talisman, so she could still escape.

With Badou on guard, Xiao Han focused all his attention on the dense forest below.
