After Ye Shanhu left, Xu Changshou closed the courtyard gate, then opened the storage bag and took a look.

At this moment, there were twenty-three spirit stones in the storage bag.

Xu Changshou looked at it again and again, as if he couldn't believe it was true. It was the first time in his life that he had seen so many spirit stones.

"Xu Changshou, don't look at it. It's nothing special. You will earn more spirit stones in the future."

Xu Changshou secretly comforted himself in his heart.

After clearing away all distracting thoughts, Xu Changshou took out the fur of the yellow fox.

Then, use a fine steel sword to cut the fur.

The fur of the yellow fox was extremely hard, and it took a lot of effort to split it into twelve pieces. Each piece was as big as cut jute paper.

The yellow fox is too small, and dividing its fur into twelve parts is already the limit.

The yellow fox's tail was left untouched and was used to make pen refills.

Then, Xu Changshou took out the magic brush and began to draw talismans with the split fur of the yellow fox.

He drew twelve in a row, all of which were Earth Gang Talismans. The Earth Gang Talisman was the most defensive talisman he knew.

There is a kind of talisman on Green Ink Peak called the Earth Shield Talisman, which is also a defensive type of talisman.

The defense power of an ordinary earthen talisman is three times that of an earthen cover talisman. The defense power of an earthen talisman drawn with the fur of a yellow fox is two to three times higher.

Therefore, the defense of the earthen talisman drawn with the fur of the yellow fox can be said to be invincible in the Qi Refining Stage, and it cannot be broken by anyone except a Foundation Establishment cultivator or a magical weapon.

Moreover, this talisman can be used three times.

If it were sold, it would definitely be more expensive than the Wind Talisman.

But Xu Changshou had no intention of selling such a good thing. Of course, he had to keep the good things for himself.

After drawing the Earth Gang Talisman, Xu Changshou placed the Earth Gang Talisman, the yellow fox's tail, and the twenty-three spirit stones into the jade talisman space.

In the storage bag, there were only some ordinary talismans and some scattered spirit stones.

Xu Changshou usually puts valuable things in the jade talisman space. Not only is there a lot of space inside, but it is also more convenient to store and access than a storage bag. It can be stored and retrieved with just a thought.

If Xu Changshou wanted to use the Tugang Talisman for defense, he could get it in his hand with just a thought.

Of course, in order to conceal his presence, Xu Changshou would usually pat the storage bag when taking something.

After finishing everything, Xu Changshou continued to draw talismans, ordinary wind talismans.

Next, Xu Changshou prepared to stockpile a large amount of Wind-traveling Talismans, at least enough for one year's mission. After stockpiling enough Wind-traveling Talismans, he began a long period of seclusion to prepare for breaking through the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Each step of cultivation advancement takes longer.

Xu Changshou roughly estimated that it would take at least one and a half years to cultivate from the eighth level of Qi Refining to the ninth level while taking the Qi Gathering Pill.

If you don't use the Qi Gathering Pill, it will take at least five years.

Now that Xu Changshou has the resources, he naturally wants to cultivate to the ninth level of Qi Refining as quickly as possible.

Draw the talisman first.

Xu Changshou began to work hard on drawing talismans, which took him more than nine months, and he did not stop until he had drawn 5,000 Fengxing Talismans.

Of course, while drawing the talisman, Xu Changshou did not forget to practice, but the progress of practice was slower, and the effect was only half of the usual.

During these nine months, Ye Shanhu came every month and took away ten wind-traveling talismans from Xu Changshou every time.

Xu Changshou's wealth has grown rapidly in the past few months and has now reached 108 spirit stones.

At this time, Xu Changshou had just turned eighteen years old.

A day off.

"Is Junior Brother Xu Changshou here?"

A strange voice sounded outside the door.

"Who?"

Xu Changshou ran to open the door. He had never heard this voice before, but it sounded familiar.

"Hey, Junior Brother Xu, you'll know once you open the door." The voice outside was a little naughty.

Xu Changshou pushed open the gate and saw a tall and imposing young man standing at the door.

The boy's face was filled with a smile, and his facial features were very familiar.

When he saw Xu Changshou, the smile on the boy's face disappeared: "Eighth level of Qi Refining, impossible, how could you also be at the eighth level of Qi Refining?"

"Who am I supposed to be? It's Junior Brother Jiang. Long time no see."

Xu Changshou smiled.

After not seeing each other for two or three years, Jiang Xiaochuan has changed a lot. Not only has his voice changed, but he has also grown taller and is almost as tall as Xu Changshou.

"Long time no see, Xu, Senior Brother Xu."

Jiang Xiaochuan gave a bitter smile.

He hadn't come to see Xu Changshou in the past two or three years. He planned to come again when he broke through the eighth level of Qi Refining and let Xu Changshou call him senior brother.

You know, Xu Changshou's cultivation was higher than his, but his talent was not as good as his.

He came from behind and broke through to the seventh level of Qi Refining earlier than Xu Changshou, so it was natural to think that he would definitely break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining earlier than Xu Changshou.

Look, he came to Xu Changshou to show off right after he made a breakthrough, but ended up getting slapped in the face.

What Jiang Xiaochuan didn't know was that Xu Changshou had no resources and was less talented than him before. He definitely couldn't have been as fast as him just by practicing diligently.

But it's different now.

Xu Changshou can make money on his own and has no shortage of resources. In terms of resources, disciples from small families like Jiang Xiaochuan can no longer compare to him.

With the resources and Xu Changshou's diligence, it is natural that his current cultivation speed will surpass Jiang Xiaochuan.

But Jiang Xiaochuan didn't know Xu Changshou's situation. In his opinion, Xu Changshou was not as talented as him, had fewer resources than him, the conditions on the mountain he was on were not as good as his, and the work he was doing was more difficult than his.

Taking all the above into consideration, there is no way Xu Changshou can surpass him in cultivation speed.

But unfortunately, Xu Changshou also entered the eighth level of Qi Refining, which Jiang Xiaochuan found incredible.

"Junior Brother Xu, tell me the truth, how did you achieve this breakthrough?"

Jiang Xiaochuan's tone was very unwilling.

"Nothing much, just a small opportunity." Xu Changshou said casually.

"No wonder, that's how it is. I said you couldn't be faster than me, it turns out it was just luck." Jiang Xiaochuan spoke with a jealous tone.

"Junior Brother Jiang, I heard you visited the medicine garden at Taiyi Peak. How was it?"

Jiang Xiaochuan straightened his body upon hearing this and said proudly, "Of course the conditions on our Taiyi Peak are better, much better than your barren Green Ink Peak. Besides, the affairs of the medicine garden are very easy and do not interfere with cultivation."

"That's fine, that's fine!"

Xu Changshou nodded slightly.

Jiang Xiaochuan's voice and appearance have changed, and he has changed a lot. He has lost his childhood innocence and has become a bit materialistic.

Of course, this is not Jiang Xiaochuan’s personal wish, but the environment of the sect is like this.

Back when they were in Chu Xiufeng, firstly they had no vested interests, and secondly they were all young, so they could get along very well.

But now, I'm afraid it's no longer possible. They have all grown up and have their own ideas. I'm afraid they can never go back to the innocence that Chu Xiufeng had back then.
