Chapter 8: Sideline - The Method of Refining Talisman Paper and Talisman Ink
The first-level low-grade water wall technique is Zhao Shoushou's long-awaited and the only defensive spell among water-attribute spells; the first-order low-grade water curtain technique seems to be the same, but its main function is to confuse the enemy and buy some time in the battle; 1.
After practicing the low-level water skills, you can hold your breath under the river for a stick of incense. It is an excellent spell whether it is underwater treasure hunting or escaping.
The first-level mid-level spring rain spell is a spell used to water spiritual grass and spiritual rice. It can condense rainwater containing a trace of spiritual power through its own mana. It is a necessary spell for spiritual farmers in many sects who specialize in farming; the first-level mid-level spell
The water scroll spell can control the water flow to change into various shapes, and is a powerful attack spell.
"I want this collection of water attribute spells. I promise you two low-grade spiritual stones." Zhao Shoushou simply took out two low-grade spiritual stones to make a deal. As of now, he has bought both the first-level low-grade Qi Powder and the incomplete first-order water attribute spells.
Here, the destination of this trip has been basically reached, but I am unwilling to leave immediately.
There is still a first-level low-grade spiritual stone left in his arms. Zhao Shoushou will carefully observe each stall to see if he can buy some high-quality and low-priced treasures. This is commonly known as "Operation Missing", but at the Cormorant Lake meeting, he wants to achieve
The purpose is obviously more difficult, and the low-level casual cultivators here are eager to sell all the consumed spiritual stones.
What's more, Zhao Shoushou has been practicing alone near Cormorant Island. Most of the meager common sense about the world of cultivation was heard here, and with his current knowledge, he doesn't have the strength to pick it up.
"A stack of talisman paper (hundred pieces) is recycled for one low-grade spiritual stone, and a jar of talisman ink (ten kilograms) is recycled for one low-grade spiritual stone. This stall owner can recycle unlimited quantities for a long time. You only need to pay one low-grade spiritual stone in exchange for refining.
Do you have any questions about the production methods and tools?" When he inadvertently passed by a stall that was also surrounded by three layers inside and outside, the voices inside instantly attracted him.
As we all know, Talisman seals are an indispensable treasure for every monk when traveling outside, and their daily consumption is huge. As one of the four major side jobs in the world of cultivation, Talisman seal masters, as long as the success rate of refining Talisman seals is more than 30%.
It can realize the great dream of making money every day, and the consumption of talisman paper and talisman ink, which are the basic resources of talisman and seal script, is even more staggering.
These basic resources have low technical content, low price, and low income, but they require a large investment of time, strength, and patience. The input and output are not proportional at all. In some powerful sects, families, and even some slightly stronger casual cultivators,
I don't want to do it, and that's why I showed up at the Cormorant Lake Meeting, which is known as the beggar's trade.
"Refining a stack of blank talismans at least ten trees that are over thirty years old, and taking the essence of the tree heart for condensation, it will take at least a month to successfully refine it; the first-level low-grade talismans need to be hunted and are at their peak damage
The powerful ligers, tigers, elephants and other beasts are condensed by taking the heart essence and blood and adding one-third of a spiritual stone. It is not economical to make ends meet with a low-grade spiritual stone."
"The failure rate in the refining process exceeds 10%, which means losing money and making money. The purchasing price of various sects and families is higher than two pieces of low-grade spiritual stones. This fellow Taoist still raises the price."
"What you fellow Taoists say makes sense. However, the purchase price of each sect can only be completed after removing all transparency below 50%. How big the difference is? Fellow Taoists can judge for themselves. Each unit
A piece of low-grade spiritual stone is already the highest price Qian can afford." Faced with the burning opinions of the public and the rising and falling opposition, the stall owner seemed to have expected that he was unmoved at all.
As a member of a large team of casual cultivators, he understands how difficult it is for casual cultivators to earn spirit stones in the early stages of Qi training. All they practice are the most widely spread entry-level techniques. There are no powerful spells around them, and the price is even higher.
There is no one in a hundred who owns the magic weapon, so there will definitely be many first- and second-level qi-training monks who have just entered the door of cultivation willing to join.
After all, for most casual cultivators, they can exchange some time, physical strength, and spiritual power for one or two low-grade spiritual stones, which is considered a good deal. These guys at the bottom of the cultivation world are like ants, with nothing left in their bodies, and only
Lower body and labor power can be sold cheaply.
"Junior has just gathered his spiritual energy and stepped into the threshold of the first level of Qi training. I wonder if I can refine talisman paper and talisman ink? Please give me some advice, senior." The first person to eat the crab was a timid man who looked like a scholar. As a practitioner,
The newbies in the world are obviously in the initial stage of knowing nothing.
"Refining talisman paper and talisman ink only requires injecting a small amount of spiritual power during the condensation process, but you need to pay a low-grade spiritual stone as a deposit. Do you understand?" The stall owner didn't mind explaining it. From what he said,
You can easily see the persistence for a low-grade spiritual stone.
"Junior understands that I was lucky enough to get a low-grade spiritual stone a few days ago. I am willing to pay it as a deposit and ask senior to teach me." The scholar had a pained look on his face, and after some groping, he took out the only low-grade spiritual stone.
"You and I are both fellow-minded, so why should we be so polite? If you don't mind, you can call me "Old Money". A cauldron, a shovel, and a wooden stick are all special tools used to refine talisman paper and talisman ink.
This book is about precautions in the refining process. Every three months, Mr. Qian will open the purchase here. When the business opens, the stall owner named Qian has a completely different face, and he is a master of the magic of face-changing.
The Cormorant Lake meeting only lasted for one day. After the sun set and the sky darkened, the originally bustling island fell silent again. Loose cultivators from all directions had left one after another. Zhao Shoushou had also boarded a small fishing boat and was about to leave, but
At the stern of the fishing boat, there is an extra small tripod with a diameter of about 30 centimeters.
The guesses of all fellow Taoists were correct. This small tripod was exchanged for a piece of low-grade spiritual stone, a tool specially used to refine talisman paper and talisman ink. It turned out that when the stall owner surnamed Qian was about to leave, Zhao Shoushou finally chose
Take out the last low-grade spiritual stone on your body and exchange it.
However, his purpose is not to trade with the stall owner named Qian in exchange for a meager income. Learning to refine talisman paper and talisman ink can be regarded as laying the foundation for trying to make talisman seals in the future. Now he is refining talisman paper in exchange for spiritual stones in his spare time, and will refine it in the future.
Making talismans and seals can also be self-sufficient. Saving a lot of expenses is an excellent plan that kills two birds with one stone.
"I bought four Qi Xing Powders and returned to the pre-liberation period overnight. Whether I succeeded in practicing the second level of Qi, I will see the real results in a few days." All the goals of the Cormorant Lake meeting were achieved, and I was swaying in excitement.
A limerick came out spontaneously, and for a while the sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling disturbed the tranquility of Cormorant Lake.
After spending all the spiritual stones he had accumulated over the years, just for an opportunity to improve his cultivation, Zhao Shoushou took it all in. If he could not successfully advance to the second level of Qi training this time, he would at least continue to work in Cormorant.
He spent three years dormant on the lake and became a fisherman.
