"Oh, I am somewhat interested in these puppets. They are good things to give to my disciples to save their lives. I wonder what Master Tianjing plans to exchange for them?" Another monk who seemed to be quite young, twirled his chin with his hands.
The long-bearded one said.
"Haha, what I am trading for is relatively rare. It is something called a "soul stone" in ancient times. A soul stone is exchanged for a puppet beast. These puppets were all made by ancient monks. It is estimated that this
There is no such high-level puppet in the world anymore." Master Tianjing said calmly.
"Soul Stone?"
Upon hearing this extremely unfamiliar name, all the monks present showed doubts on their faces.
They had never heard of this thing before, it was really unfamiliar.
When Master Tianjing saw this, he seemed to have expected it. He put one hand into the storage bag, and a green crystal stone the size of a thumb came out of his palm.
A quick glance at the crystal revealed that it was similar to a wood-attributed spirit stone. The person sitting there discovered with a quick glance that the crystal was not emitting the wood-attributed aura that all monks are familiar with, but a cold and chilly one.
Extremely inexplicable fluctuations.
"Perhaps some fellow Taoists have this thing in their hands, but they don't recognize it. I happen to have a piece here. Fellow Taoists, you can identify it first." The old Taoist held the crystal in his hand and said slowly:
"Huh! It's a bit weird, a bit like the power of the ghost, but it is much purer than the power of the ghost." A demonic monk who was surrounded by black energy asked in surprise.
"I don't know what is contained in this crystal stone, but it is definitely not an ordinary soul energy. Otherwise, how could I be willing to trade these puppets for such a stone." Master Tianjing was also very straightforward and replied directly.
"Oh! That's true." The demonic monk was sensible and did not continue to ask.
But when Han Li saw the crystal clearly, his face under the mask suddenly changed, and his eyes flickered uncertainly.
If he read correctly, this "soul stone" is clearly the "Yinming Beast Crystal" he collected from the Yinming Land. Of course, the name "Beast Crystal" is just the name of the natives of the Yinming Land.
The real name among ancient monks seems to be the so-called "soul stone".
"This Master Tianjing not only brought out so many puppets, he also wanted to collect many "soul stones" at the same time. Thinking that many of the puppets seen in Xutian Temple had these soul stones hidden in them, it seems that this person...
." Han Li began to think thoughtfully.
However, apparently very few people noticed this 'soul stone'. After a while, only one monk hesitantly took out a piece and stepped forward to replace it with a beast puppet.
After Master Tianjing asked a few more questions, he saw that no one came up again. Although he had expected this, he still couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Just when he was about to put away the remaining puppet beasts, another person suddenly stood up and walked over. This made the old man feel refreshed, and he looked at the visitor with some surprise:
"Fellow Taoist, do you also have a soul stone?"
The person who came forward was Han Li, who had finally made up his mind. He turned his palm silently, and a green crystal appeared in his hand.
However, this crystal is about the size of an egg, and a cloud of cold air that is almost visible to the naked eye emanates from the crystal, which is far from comparable to the crystals taken out by the veteran.
Master Tianjing was startled at first, and then he was ecstatic. But he couldn't help but said with a smile on his face:
"Fellow Daoist, this soul stone is so big, it's really rare. Let's do it this way. Fellow Daoist, just pick two of these puppets and take them. A poor Taoist will not let you suffer a loss."
"Two?" After hearing this, Han Li chuckled and shook his head.
"What? There are too few Taoist friends! I wonder how many friends you plan to exchange for?" Master Tianjing asked kindly without being angry.
"Shall I exchange this soul stone for all the remaining puppets of my fellow Taoist?" Han Li said calmly.
"In exchange for six! Don't you think you are too greedy, fellow Taoist?" Upon hearing this, the old Taoist frowned for a moment and said with some dissatisfaction.
"Hehe! You should be very clear whether you are greedy or not. This soul stone is not just about its size. Besides, such a large soul stone, for a real person..." Han Li stared at Tianjing, still not finished.
Suddenly stopped talking.
Upon hearing this, Master Tianjing's face changed slightly, he looked at Han Li deeply for a few times, and then he was silent for a while and said:
"Okay, such a large soul stone is indeed rare. I am in urgent need of this thing. I will exchange it as the Taoist friend said."
Hearing what the old Taoist said, the other monks in the attic were surprised for a while and couldn't help but stare at the egg-sized crystal in Han Li's hand.
You should pay more attention to something that can be exchanged for several rare puppets at once.
Han Li didn't look surprised. He handed over the crystal directly. Then he lowered his head and flicked his sleeves on the table. All six puppet beasts disappeared.
However, what the other monks didn't notice was that when Han Li lowered his head, his lips moved slightly. Tianjing's eyes flashed, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.
At this time, Han Li had already returned to his seat with the puppet.
Next, Master Tianjing announced that the exchange meeting was over, and many monks went downstairs to leave. Han Li and three others also left the Jinglong Pavilion among them.
When the three of them left the attic, no one said anything, but when they crossed two streets and were a little further away from the attic, the Fire Dragon Boy spoke angrily.
"Two fellow Taoists, I have another appointment. I won't be with you two."
"Brother Lan, if you have something to do, just go and do it. The residence I am waiting for is not far away, and there are many opportunities to get together again." Lu Luo said with a smile.
"Well, then Lan takes his leave!" The Fire Dragon Boy said without politeness. After greeting Han Li, he walked to another street.
"This fellow Fire Dragon Taoist is really a wonderful person!" Han Li looked at the boy's retreating back and suddenly said with a smile.
"Fellow Taoist Lan has always maintained the appearance of a boy because he accidentally ate a strange weed when he was young. But he is forthright and forthright, and he is one of the few fellow expats he can befriend. He is also the only one in the Ancient Sword Sect.
An elder who is friendly to our Luoyun Sect."
After hearing this, Han Li raised his eyebrows and thought in his heart:
"From what I heard, the other elders of Gujian Sect don't think much of Luo Yun Sect."
"By the way. What are Junior Brother Han's plans next? Now go back to your residence and rest for a while, or go shopping elsewhere." At this time, Lu Luo looked around and asked.
"I need to buy some special materials, and I plan to go to a few nearby markets alone. Maybe there will be an unexpected harvest." Han Li said directly without any intention of hiding it.
"Just in time. I also plan to go to the auction house to send something for auction. Then Junior Brother Han and I will be separated here for the time being." Lu Luo heard Han Li's intention to act alone and agreed without any objection.
Therefore, Han Li and Lu Luo immediately broke up here and went their separate ways.
…
Several markets in Khotan City are very large, at least many times larger than those of the three sects of Yunmeng Mountain.
Han Li was walking on a street in Fangshi, west of Tiantian City, and kept looking at the shops on both sides.
The words Han Li and Lu Luo said about purchasing materials were not lies.
He does plan to purchase some rarer talisman-making materials and prepare to refine some high-grade talismans.
Although he has many spirit animal skins and spirit blood left over from those days, refining high-grade talisman paper and high-grade cinnabar naturally requires the assistance of other raw materials.
This also allowed him to make preparations in advance for refining the spirit summoning talisman that he had already intended to do in the future, and strive to improve his talisman-making skills to a higher level.
Although the spirit-dropping talisman has not been carefully studied, the power of the spirit-dropping talisman mentioned on the bone fragment is really extraordinary. It can save his life at a critical moment, so Han Li is naturally not willing to let it go easily.
However, the difficulty of refining this talisman is not ordinary complicated and difficult, far exceeding the ordinary five elements talisman.
In this way, in order to increase the success rate, in addition to improving his ability in making spells, he must replace his spell-making pen.
The original talisman-making pen should have been eliminated long ago.
Unfortunately, Talisman-making materials are easy to buy, but satisfactory Talisman-making pens are hard to find.
Among the first two shops in the market, there were also a few selling talisman-making pens. Some of them even sold rare top-level talisman-making pens. But after looking at them, they just shook their heads and left.
These talisman-making pens may be enough for making ordinary high-level talismans, but they are obviously not enough for drawing secret talismans such as spirit summoning talismans.
Talisman-making pens are a kind of spiritual weapon that can only be used by talisman-making masters, so they are not very common. Even if they do exist, they are mostly of low and middle grades.
Because for a Talisman Maker, if he does not have enough mana, forcibly using a high-end Talisman Making Pen will not only fail to increase the Talisman Making Rate, but will actually increase the chance of failure.
As for the Talisman Makers, because they were distracted from practicing the Talisman Making Technique, most of them were not very advanced, and nine out of ten were still hovering below the foundation building stage.
There are only a few full-time Talisman Masters who can form elixirs in the entire Tiannan Immortal Cultivation World.
As for the Nascent Soul Talisman Maker, as far as Han Li knows, there seems to be no such perverted guy.
Most of them are old monsters who have reached the Nascent Soul stage, and some old monsters also practice talisman making skills on their own. They are not specialized talisman makers.
The talisman-making skills of these Nascent Soul monks are also very different. Basically, they specialize in one or two high-level talismans that are useful to them. However, because of the scarcity of high-level spiritual animal skins and high-level animal blood, they naturally cannot practice more.
The success rate can be imagined.
This also leads to the strange phenomenon that high-level talismans are sometimes much more expensive than top-level magic weapons in the world of immortality.
