“This is very interesting. Although it’s not powerful, it’s good for scaring people, how much is it?”
“One piece of Spirit Stone.”
“What, a Spirit Stone?”That cultivator was shocked: “So expensive, you might as well rob us.”
“What’s this, a Low-Grade Talisman is being sold for such a high price, wanting a Spirit Stone; don’t be crazy.”
…
In the face of the accusations of the cultivators, Liu Jing seemed to be aggrieved: “But it’s not an ordinary Low-Level Talisman.”
“So what, its power is still the same as a Low-Grade Talisman.”
It’s no wonder everyone’s angry, a Low-Grade Talisman, even dozens of them aren’t even worth one Spirit Stone. The price is really outrageous. As Spirit Condensation Stage cultivators, they’re generally poor, and couldn’t possibly afford it.
Seeing everyone scatter, Liu Jing sighed. At the Dao Talisman Mountain, he only has a medium-level Innate Talent, but his mind was very flexible. He often had a lot of whimsy ideas which he put into practice. This Low-Grade Talisman is his proudest work, but his Elder did not appreciate it, but instead denounced him for not doing his job but doing some inexplicable things.
Liu Jing didn’t dare talk back, but he was not convinced in his heart, so he took his work to the gathering, hoping to sell it for a good price and prove himself.
Knowing that not only did he not sell a single one, but was also accused of being degraded. He was very dejected.
“How many Talismans do you have?”
A kind voice sounded into his ear, and Liu Jing looked up and saw a young man wearing the Whirlwind Cloud Valley robe looking at him with a smile.
Unlike those people, Lin Xuan didn’t think that this special Low-Rank Talisman can only be used for scaring people. If it’s used properly, it’d be a Magical Treasure that can save his life.
He already thought about how he can use this in his mind, and Lin Xuan is ready to buy them all.
“There are nine, does Senior Brother want to buy?”Liu Jing looked up and was surprised and happy.
“Only nine?”Lin Xuan was silent, and then he took the Spirit Stones from his storage bag and handed them over.
With this Low-grade Talisman, which can deceive people, even if he meets a Foundation Establishment Stage Expert, Lin Xuan has a little more confidence in escaping.
He still had a lot of Spirit Stones left, and Lin Xuan is naturally not prepared to leave just yet. This trip is very dangerous and a lot of things need to be bought.
Although the harvest is good, his preferred High-Grade Talisman is still without a trace.
Lin Xuan continued to move forward, he did not pay much attention to the simple stalls on both sides of this street, in addition to the makeshift stalls, there are some beautiful stores, Wang Xin’s information was also not completely accurate, with the Talisman business expanding day by day, in addition to elder Tian Yuan, some of the other Elders in the Foundation Establishment Stage finally couldn’t bear the temptation of Spirit Stones and personally set up their own booths.
Of course, they are prideful and didn’t want to work with the Spirit Condensation Stage disciples.
So the Dao Talisman Mountain built stores and rented them to the Foundation Establishment Stage Elders.
This discovery made Lin Xuan happy, maybe there would be other people quietly selling High-Grade Talismans. However, after visiting five to six stores, he found nothing.
Lin Xuan, somewhat disappointed and ready to go back, his eyes were suddenly attracted by a talisman, in a stall at the end of the street, the stall owner was a white-haired old man, of more than 70 years old, although you can’t tell by looking, but from the imposing aura radiating from his body, Lin Xuan speculated that it’s an expert that has reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
Foundation Establishment Stage and without a cabin. Is it Elder Tianyuan? Thinking of it, whether or not he guessed it correctly, the Talisman at his booth made Lin Xuan very excited.
It was a blue Talisman, slightly larger than an ordinary Talisman. On the surface, a bird with a sharp claw was painted like a living creature.
Although on the surface, this Talisman does not seem to be eye-catching, but Lin Xuan is a person who knows his stuff, Beast Talisman, a term that jumped into his mind.
He just didn’t know what type of Spirit Beast Soul is sealed inside.
“Senior, how much is this Talisman for?”Lin Xuan bowed respectfully at the old man, without looking at him: “Two hundred Spirit Stone.”
Two hundred!
Lin Xuan was taken aback. Although a Beast Talisman is a special talisman, it shouldn’t be that expensive.
Lin Xuan thought of a possibility, but not too sure he cautiously said: “Senior, two hundred Spirit stones, isn’t it a little too expensive?”
“Too expensive?”The old man sneered and looked up at Lin Xuan. “Kid, do you know what this is?”
A Beast Soul Talisman.
“Eh? The old man was a little impressed, and the sneer on his face finally closed up: “I didn’t expect you to know about them, then do you know what kind of Spirit Beast Soul is inside the Talisman?”
“This junior is not clear and asks senior for guidance.”
“The Demonic beast inside of the Talisman is the Soaring Heaven Bird Soul that failed its Advancement.”
Soaring Heaven Bird, Water Attribute First Level Top Grade Spirit Beast, its strength is similar to the Armored Flaming Tiger, which is equivalent to a cultivator of the Spirit Condensation Stage Great Perfection.
But what’s that about the failure of advancing?
Both Spirit Beasts and cultivators can absorb and control the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth. Cultivators continue to improve through cultivation, from Spirit Condensation Stage to Foundation Establishment, from Foundation Establishment Stage to Core Formation…
The same is true for Spirit Beasts, a first Level Spirit Beast can absorb Spiritual Qi. After strengthening itself, the Spirit Beasts strength will continue to grow, from First Level to Second Level and from Second Level to the Third Level …
Though on the surface it looks similar, in fact, there is a difference, if a cultivator wants to advance, they need to break through the bottleneck, this process can be done multiple times, for example, Spirit Condensation Stage Great Perfection to Foundation Establishment, even if one failed he can try a second time, if you fail again, you can come back for the third time. As long as you don’t give up on your efforts, you can repeatedly attack the bottleneck.
But Spirit Beasts are different. They can only have one chance at Advancement. If it fails, they will never be able to try again.
Compared to cultivators, Spirit Beasts are clearly weaker in this regard, but they also have their own advantages, such as this soaring Heaven bird, First Level Top Grade Spirit Beast, it tried to advance to the second level but failed if it was a cultivator and couldn’t break through the bottleneck, then their strength would still be the same, but Spirit Beasts are different, although there wouldn’t be a chance for a second attempt, but even if they failed, their strength will still increase dramatically.
So the strength of this Soaring Heaven Bird is close to a cultivator of the Foundation Establishment. Although it’s not as good as one, it doesn’t differ that much.
