Am I not a nascent saint demon cultivator?

Time passed quietly, and several months later...

Qingyufang Market.

Inside a cave.

Xu Yun concentrated intently, unfolded a piece of talisman paper, dipped his talisman brush in spiritual ink, and began to draw patterns on it.

His hands didn't waver at all; instead, he remained calm and composed, as if he had drawn the patterns countless times before, making it an instinct. As the patterns increased, his movements became more and more skillful.

Buzz!

A moment later, as Xu Yun made the final stroke, the patterns on the talisman paper were completely connected, forming a complete rune, and it rippled with a fiery red halo.

It was clearly a first-tier talisman, the Fire Cloud Talisman.

Seeing this, Xu Yun put down his talisman brush and smiled sincerely. "Not bad. After all this time of hard work, I have finally become a true talisman master."

"Congratulations, Master! Congratulations, Master!"

At the same time, Daoist Tianlin bowed respectfully, his face filled with joy and respect.

Xu Yun accepted the gift with a smile. In addition to his extraordinary talent and hard work in studying the Dao of Talismans, the guidance of Daoist Tianlin had also played a crucial role in his success during this period.

After all, he was a remnant soul of the Foundation Establishment stage and extremely skilled in talisman making. His experience and knowledge were invaluable treasures to Xu Yun, greatly accelerating Xu Yun's progress towards becoming a talisman master.

"Now that I've become a talisman master, I can finally establish myself in Qingyu Market."

Xu Yun murmured to himself, "Although Daoist Tianlin is skilled at drawing talismans, I cannot rely on him all the time."

Ultimately, you can only rely on yourself.

Of course, more importantly, once you become a talisman master, when you go to sell talismans, others won't realize that you don't actually know how to draw talismans, and thus discover something unusual.

After all, with Daoist Tianlin around, the talismans he sells are of high quality, so it's inevitable that they will attract the attention of those with ulterior motives.

Thinking of this, Xu Yun shook his head and continued to improve his talisman skills under the guidance of Daoist Tianlin.

.......

The next day.

A street in Qingyufang City.

As always, Xu Yun set up his stall, displaying several talismans, some unused rare and precious herbs and pills.

Although he had specifically chosen the stall route to complete the task issued by the Initial Saint System, now that the task is completed, he should no longer need to set up a stall.

However, for Xu Yun, if he only set up a stall once and then Yi Fengyuan, who had bought his talismans, simply disappeared, it would inevitably make people with ulterior motives think that there was something wrong with him.

Therefore, in order to avoid such trouble, Xu Yun could only continue setting up his stall as usual, hoping to earn some more spirit stones for himself.

Of course, more importantly, Xu Yun was also thinking of using the opportunity of setting up a stall to see if there were any suitable prey like Yi Fengyuan.

It wasn't that he wanted to do it that way, but mainly that if the Initial Saint System issued a task similar to the previous one, he could complete it in time.

Xu Yun was also powerless to control his own destiny; everything was left to the whims of the Initial Saint System.

"Unfortunately, the customers who have come to buy things lately are either difficult to deal with or don't have anything of value on them, so they're not worth the effort."

Thinking of this, Xu Yun couldn't help but sigh, feeling somewhat helpless.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Xu, I, Lin, am here to patronize your business again."

Just then, a long laugh rang out. Xu Yun looked up and saw a middle-aged man in a jade-blue robe walking towards him with a refined and warm smile on his face.

"So it's Fellow Daoist Lin. I'm truly grateful for your care during this time."

Seeing this, Xu Yun smiled, stood up, cupped his hands, and said, clearly indicating that they were quite familiar with each other.

This man, named Lin Zuibai, had been frequently buying talismans from Xu Yun lately, and they had exchanged some information over time.

At first, Xu Yun naturally had some interest in him, but after carefully learning about his background, he had no choice but to give up.

Lin Zuibai not only has a cultivation level of five levels of Qi Refining, but also has some good friends and a great reputation in Qingyu Market.

More importantly, this person also has some connection with the Muyun Chamber of Commerce, and it is said that they are doing some business with them.

It should be noted that the Muyun Chamber of Commerce is the largest force in Qingyu Market, mainly because it has several Foundation Establishment cultivators behind it, making others dare not even think about it.

"I only have a Foundation Establishment remnant soul protecting me. If I were to attack Lin Zuibai, it might attract the attention of the Muyun Chamber of Commerce, which would be a greater loss than gain."

For Xu Yun, this kind of thing was more harmful than beneficial, and he didn't even want to gamble. He only did things that were sure of success.

Thinking of this, he reached out to greet him, smiling as he said, "Fellow Daoist Lin, are you still the same as always?"

"Indeed, Fellow Daoist Xu's talismans are not only cheaper than those in shops, but the quality is also quite good. I naturally need to buy more."

Lin Zuibai smiled slightly, his temperament was gentle and refined, and his words and actions were quite pleasing to people.

As Xu Yun spoke with him, he handed him several talismans. Suddenly, Lin Zuibai changed the subject and secretly transmitted his voice, saying, "Fellow Daoist Xu, are you interested in demon hunting?"

"Monster hunting?"

Xu Yun was taken aback upon hearing this and looked at the other party with some surprise, wondering why the other party would suddenly transmit a message and say such a thing.

Lin Zuibai nodded slightly and smiled, "I recently accepted a commission to hunt down a mid-stage first-tier Golden-Eyed Beast, but I'm short-handed, so I'd like to ask Fellow Daoist Xu for help."

"Fellow Daoist Xu has not only reached the fourth level of Qi Refining, but is also a talisman master. He will surely be of great help to us in hunting the Golden-Eyed Beast."

"Of course, I won't let Fellow Daoist Xu work for nothing. This is the reward I can offer. Fellow Daoist Xu can choose one of them."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Zuibai raised his hand, took out a jade slip, and handed it to Xu Yun.

Upon seeing Xu Yun accept the gift, Lin Zuibai bowed respectfully, saying, "There are too many people around here, so it's not convenient to discuss this in detail. If Fellow Daoist Xu is interested, you can come to my cave to find me."

During the conversation, Lin Zuibai left his location and contact information, then turned and left.

Seeing this, Xu Yun turned his gaze to the jade slip and subconsciously scanned it with his spiritual sense.

In an instant, a stream of information appeared in his mind, including pills, cultivation techniques, secret arts, and rare and precious materials.

"Hmm? This is... Xuanling Xinzhi?"

Suddenly, Xu Yun's rapidly sweeping gaze paused, landing on one of the pieces of information, and he was extremely surprised.

The Mysterious Spirit Mushroom is a spiritual medicine that nourishes the soul. It is usually used as one of the main ingredients in refining soul-type pills, but it has always been rare.

He never expected that Lin Zuibai would have one, but more importantly, this Xuanling Xinzhi was of great use to Xu Yun.

"If I could obtain this Mysterious Spirit Mushroom, I could have Daoist Tianlin consume it and regain some of his former abilities."

Xu Yun thought to himself, "Daoist Tianlin is ultimately just a remnant soul of the Foundation Establishment stage. His strength is insufficient, and even his past memories are somewhat blurry and incomplete."

If Xu Yun were to consume this Xuanling Spirit Mushroom, he could recover some of Tianlin Daoist's strength and memories, which would undoubtedly be of great benefit to him.

At that time, he will be able to extract more useful things from Daoist Tianlin!

"I am determined to obtain this Mysterious Spirit Mushroom!"
