Chapter 511

"Have you read the content of the jade talisman?"

Seeing Shang Xia again, Kou Chongxue was still sitting in the pavilion without any image, as if he hadn't moved a bit in the past few days.

Shang Xia was quite tired and said: "Look!"

Kou Chongxue saw Shang Xia's expression of lovelessness, and immediately laughed gloatingly.

Shang Xia said unhappily: "You always recruit disciples, don't you just want to see their jokes?"

Kou Chongxue waved his hand casually, and suddenly a ray of brilliance appeared and flew towards Shang Xia.

Although Shang Xia didn't know what it was, until Kou Chongxue won't harm him, he stretched out his hand to draw it forward, and the brilliance immediately gathered in his palm.

"this is……"

Shang Xia watched the brilliance in his palm gradually condense and turned into a few grains of gravel-like crystals, but there were fascinating brilliance of different colors shining on it. His heart seemed to think of something, and his expression suddenly lifted .

"That's right, that's the 'Essence of Extraterrestrial Stars', which is the essential thing mentioned in the jade talisman to repair the Linyuan Divine Knife."

Kou Chongxue's words confirmed Shang Xia's conjecture.

"But don't be too happy too early. What do you think this little 'star essence' is enough to do? And how long did the old man stay outside the sky for this little thing?"

Kou Chongxue's words were like a basin of cold water being poured down, even though he was prepared in his heart, he was still frustrated.

This little bit of star essence is just a drop in the bucket for the repair of the Linyuan magic knife. As for how long Kou Chongxue has been collecting it in the outer space...

"After you left the Taihang Mountains, the old man discovered this jade talisman, and ventured off into the sky to try to pick it up. It took about half a year to get this few."

When Kou Chongxue said this, he paused for a moment, and said, "Of course, it may also be that the old man is not deep enough in the void of the astral world, and the efficiency of picking up starlight is not high enough..."

Shang Xia sighed helplessly: "You don't need to say more, since picking is so difficult, why do you keep giving these few grains of star essence to disciples?"

Kou Chongxue snorted coldly, and said: "The old man is just afraid that you will see him in the future but you will be blind."

Shang Xia's heart moved, and he said: "The meaning of Shanzhang is..."

Kou Chongxue said: "Although it is not easy to collect the essence of the outer stars, it does not mean that there are no other people to pick it, nor does it mean that there will be no crystals that are naturally generated by accident and fall into other hands. At that time, it will only be up to you Is there any way and ability to exchange it from others."

Shang Xia's spirit was lifted, and he said, "Does the head of the mountain know which ancestors are collecting or trading this thing?"

Kou Chongxue glanced at him, and said: "How does this old man know? Do you think this old man has a lot of friends in this outer dome? Or do you think that the fifth-order ancestors in the Cangyu world have the ability to cross the void of the astral world with their bodies, or are they alone? Everyone is very free, willing to spend a lot of effort to collect and condense these starlight essences that I don’t know where to use?”

Kou Chongxue's words made Shang Xia speechless, but at the same time, he did not forget to raise himself up by belittling himself.

Shang Xia could only give a thumbs up, and said something that Kou Chongxue didn't quite understand but could understand the meaning: "You are awesome!"

The discussion between the two on this topic ended here.

Kou Chongxue turned to ask: "How have you cultivated in the thatched hut these two days? Can you still adapt to the environment here?"

Shang Xia soon overcame the influence of the out-of-control vitality brought about by the origin of heaven and earth shortly after stepping into the vault of heaven and earth that day, but it was only a temporary adaptation after all, and there may be factors of forced suppression in it.

And Shang Xia stayed in the thatched cottage for several days, which obviously cannot be achieved by forceful suppression, it must be the result of Shang Xia's complete adaptation to the outer sky.

Shang Xia said directly: "If you have anything to do, just tell me!"

Kou Chongxue said: "Naturally, it is a matter of making talismans. Didn't the old man's Yuangang incarnation have already explained it clearly to you?"

Shang Xia said helplessly: "Even if the disciple wants to make a fourth-order martial talisman, he must have a fourth-order talisman paper. I'm afraid you don't know that before the disciple made the talisman in the mysterious world, I'm afraid it has already been made. The fourth-order talisman papers in the entire Tongyou City have been searched. Now, I am a disciple, and I am a clever woman who can't cook without rice!"

"Really shaved clean?"

Kou Chongxue asked him a seemingly casual question.

"Then there is still a fake..."

Before Shang Xia finished speaking, he saw Kou Chongxue's expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, and suddenly his heart moved, and he said, "Could it be that you, the old man..."

Kou Chongxue stretched out his hand and said, "Old Ji, come here!"

Vitality swelled up again on the ground outside the pavilion, and Ji Wenlong's avatar emerged again, but at this time he was holding something in his hand.

Suddenly Ji Wenlong raised his hand, and the object in his hand flew towards Shang Xia.

"Since there is a great talisman master in the academy, the head of the mountain and I have been paying attention to collecting fourth-order talisman papers since last year. You said that you scraped all the existing fourth-order talisman papers in Tongyou City, but you forgot about us! "

When Ji Wenlong said this, he glanced at Kou Chongxue in the pavilion, and said: "As for you mountain chiefs, hey, the popularity in the outer sky is really not very good, so this job fell on the old man's head instead. superior."

After being scorned by Ji Wenlong, even Kou Chongxue was speechless for a while, and only a self-deprecating smile appeared on his face.

Shang Xia found out what was in Ji Wenlong's hand, but found that it was actually just a large brocade cloud box, and the space inside was actually only one foot square.

But this object seems to have a different purpose, it is specially used to hold some special items.

"Hey, so many!"

Shang Xia looked at the contents of the box. There were a total of thirty pieces of fourth-level talisman paper, one piece of fourth-level talisman ink, two pieces of third-level talisman ink, and other items that might be used in the process of making talismans. All look good quality.

Ji Wenlong explained: "That day when you made talismans with great fanfare, and the entire Tongyou City was raising Tier 4 talisman papers for you, I also heard about it. But you forgot that most of the Tier 4 masters in the academy have already gone outside the territory. Continent, and their private possessions may be the most quintessential part of the whole Youzhou."

Shang Xia nodded subconsciously.

Seeing this, Ji Wenlong pointed to a part of the talisman paper in the box, and said, "Among the thirty pieces of fourth-grade talisman paper, about half were collected from them, and the remaining half is from your mountain chief's private collection. Five, and the remaining ten are the ones that the old man bought from other people at a high price in the Outer Sky Dome."

Shang Xia thought for a while, and said: "I have made some progress in making talismans in the mysterious world before. The thirty talisman papers are calculated with a 30% success rate. I will try my best to make nine to ten pieces."

"Twelve!"

As soon as Kou Chongxue, who had been silent all this time, opened her mouth, she directly set a new standard for Shang Xia.

"what?"

Shang Xia was stunned, and then said unhappy: "Twelve fourth-rank martial talismans, that's a 40% success rate. It's only been a few years since the disciple became a fourth-rank talisman master? Aren't you embarrassing me?"

Among the fourth-tier great talisman masters, a 30% successful talisman success rate is enough to start making talismans for everyone.

A success rate of 40% does not seem to be high, but for a fourth-tier great talisman master, every 10% increase in the success rate is almost as difficult as the span from a third-tier talisman master to a fourth-tier great talisman master .

It can almost be said that for every 10% increase in success rate, it is a qualitative change worthy of celebration for the great talisman master.

Even though Shang Xia's talisman-making skills seem to be on the rise now, he dare not say with absolute certainty that he can achieve a 40% success rate of talismans.

Kou Chongxue said: "Let's do this, the 40% success rate will definitely not change, but the old man can promise you that besides the twelve fourth-order martial talismans, as long as you have the ability to make more, they will be yours."

Shang Xia still refused to accept it and said, "You're throwing a carrot in front of the disciple, and you're playing the disciple like a donkey. With a 40% success rate, the disciple must have the ability to do it!"

Kou Chongxue ignored Shang Xia's complaints, but said: "Don't be unconvinced, you boy! You borrowed the martial talisman from the academy to hone your own talisman-making skills, and made the fourth-order martial talisman inheritance you know one by one. Over and over, do you think the old man doesn’t know?”

Shang Xia said eloquently: "That's because the disciple wants to leave a model for every fourth-order inheritance in Futang, for the reference of future generations."

Kou Chongxue sneered and said, "Don't think that this old man knows nothing about talisman-making techniques! Now you don't need to make samples for other people with these thirty pieces of talisman paper, you just draw the talisman that you are most sure of. Yes, the old man doesn't believe that you don't have a 40% success rate."

Shang Xia waited to say more, but he heard Ji Wenlong cough lightly from beside him, and said, "Son, don't forget 'Wu Dao Xiang'!"

"What's the matter with 'Wu Dao Xiang'?"

Naturally, Shang Xia would not ask this sentence, but his eyes really showed this emotion.

Ji Wenlong then explained: "If the function of 'Enlightenment Incense' is only the effort of that stick of incense, then it is not called Enlightenment Incense. Of course, the time of that stick of incense is when its effect is greatest, but the effect of Enlightenment Incense is What people praise is the long rest of the rhyme!"

Looking at Shang Xia's thoughtful expression, Ji Wenlong continued: "If the old man guessed correctly, since you used 'Wu Dao Xiang' until now, you have not only made great progress in making talismans, I am afraid that you have made great progress in other fields." We usually dare not say that everything is going well, and the improvement must be much greater than before, right?"

Shang Xia groaned for a while, thinking about it now, Ji Wenlong was right, since he returned from injury in Taihang Mountain, his improvement during this period has indeed come from all aspects.

Just looking at Shang Xia's expression, Ji Wenlong knew that his guess was inseparable, so he said with a smile: "So, before you know it, your talisman-making skills must have improved at this time, maybe you have already improved by now." It exceeds the 40% success rate, if it is true or not, you just need to verify it with your own hands."

At this time, Kou Chongxue in the pavilion also said: "You have drunk the old man's 'Enlightenment Tea', you should know the difference between the two."

Shang Xia knew that his arms could not hold back his thighs now, and if he wanted to take some benefits from the two of them, he might not succeed, so he simply said: "You two old sayings are on this point, if the disciple refuses to agree, then he will not understand. Uplifted, then the disciple will do his best."

"You're a smart boy!"

Kou Chongxue waved his hand like chasing flies to signal Shang Xia to leave quickly.
