Lin Yi used the Wind Law, moving along the wind to the small market town. After mastering the Wind Law, his perception of wind had strengthened. He was now not simply light-footed, but could even boost his speed by deriving support from his understanding of the wind.
At the entrance to the small market, he saw Li Yuan Qing standing upright, his demeanor solemn, a look of “stay-away-from-me” radiating from him. The outer sect disciples passing by all went around him.
Upon seeing him, Li Yuan Qing went directly towards a forest next to the market.
Lin Yi followed quickly and arrived at an open space in the forest where he respectfully greeted, “Senior Brother Li, recently evil spirits have been appearing in Qing Yun City, I’ve been making Exorcism and Rebirth Charms, I apologize for any delay.”
“Oh, what a coincidence. I was going to ask you if you could make these two talisman templates. Show them to me.” Li Yuan Qing’s face changed slightly, as he reached out for the talismans.
After hearing this, Lin Yi took out two talisman templates from his package, handed them over, and wondered if the Liu Yun Sect was going to act soon.
Otherwise, this immortal city would be emptied by the evil spirits in no time.
Li Yuan Qing took the two talisman templates and stimulated them with his spiritual power to feel their potential. His expression changed, “Do you have any newly made Raging Fire Talismans, show me.”
“I have a few left.” Lin Yi handed over a Raging Fire Talisman, suspecting that Li Yuan Qing had noticed the growing power of the talismans.
After taking the Raging Fire Talisman, Li Yuan Qing stimulated it with his spiritual power and threw it out. The talisman turned into a raging flame with astonishing power, smashing towards the ground.
Seeing this, he nodded slightly, “Your talisman crafting skills seems improved, oh, and your cultivation level as well, good.”
“Thank you for your praise, Senior Brother. I was lucky to have a breakthrough.” Lin Yi said with a smile.
Li Yuan Qing did not continue this topic and played with the two talisman templates in his hand, “How many of these two talisman templates have you made so far? Bring them out. I will give you the highest price.”
Without hesitating, Lin Yi took over three hundred talisman templates from the package, including two hundred Exorcism Charms and a hundred and thirty Rebirth Charms.
“Let me check.” After receiving and inspecting the talismans, Li Yuan Qing put them into his storage bag. Then, he took out a Sound Transmission Talisman, said a few words, activated it and threw it away.
Soon, a Sound Transmission Talisman flew over. He caught it and activated it directly in front of Lin Yi, revealing the current prices in Qing Yun City: a Top-Grade Evil Warding Talisman for four spirit stones and a Rebirth Charm for two and a half spirit stones.
“Two hundred Exorcism charms, one hundred and thirty Rebirth charms, that’s over eleven hundred spirit stones. But your talismans are stronger than typical top-grade versions. I’ll add half a spirit stone each for them, for a total of one thousand and three hundred.”
Li Yuan Qing took out another Storage Symbol from his storage bag, transferring the spirit stones onto it, and handed it to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi was taken aback, was this over a thousand spirit stones? He hurriedly bowed, “Senior Brother, this is too much, I accept the purchase price of Qing
Yun City.”
“Too much? Compared to the lives of disciples of Liu Yun Sect, over a thousand spirit stones are nothing. Take it, and don’t go outside recently.” Li Yuan Qing said indifferently.
Lin Yi was persistent and replied with a steadfast gaze, “Thank you, Senior Brother, but Qing Yun City is in danger right now. You are going to fight the enemy, and as an outer sect disciple, I should support and not profit from this crisis. ”
Selling to Wan Bao Tower, a shop that solely considers profit, is fundamentally different from selling to Li Yuan Qing.
Li Yuan Qing unexpectedly showed a gentle smile on his face, “It’s good that you have this intention. I previously went to the sect’s inner treasury to purchase talismans, but I’m dissatisfied with the Exorcism Charms and Rebirth Charms produced by the Talisman Hall. That’s why I came to you. After calculations, their talismans barely possess seventy percent of your talisman’s power.”
“Given the power of your talismans, it is reasonable to use the market price. Don’t decline any more, use these spirit stones well for cultivation. Contribute more to the sect in the future.’
Seeing the situation, Lin Yi didn’t refuse any longer. He cupped his fists in a salute, accepted the Storage Symbol, and said, “Thank you, Senior Brother. I will humbly accept. However, I have one request, please keep the origin of the talisman templates secret.”
When he had previously sold talisman templates at Wan Bao Tower, he had disguised himself to hide his true identity.
“Okay.” Li Yuan Qing nodded in agreement. He then stepped onto his flying
sword and said, “You continue making talismans. When the need arises, I will
look for you. If you are short of materials, you can communicate with me.”
“I have enough materials. Farewell, Senior Brother,” Lin Yi replied, saluting again. He had bought materials for more than a thousand talismans but had only made less than five hundred at this point.
The day after Li Yuan Qing left, the Liu Yun Sect announced a full lockdown in
Qing Yun City, which was taken over by the Inner Sect. At the same time, Li Yuan Qing, a disciple under Gold Sword Zen Ren, was appointed as the pioneer in eradicating the evil. He led dozens of Foundation Building cultivators and hundreds of Qi Refining Cultivators to Qing Yun City to battle the evil.
By that time, the number of people mysteriously dying each day in Qing Yun City had reached over a hundred, most of whom were Qi Refining Cultivators, indicating that the number of the Evil Spirits was increasing.
This could have been a good opportunity to dispose of the bodies, possibly earning a related title quickly. However, Lin Yi made no moves. Going to dispose of the bodies at this time was akin to seeking death. He was not going to risk his life for a title.
Over the next period, besides cultivating and farming, Lin Yi dedicated his time to making talismans. After producing over a thousand talismans, his title [Talisman Craftmanship Novice] also reached 200 experience points, smoothly advancing from the second tier to the third.
His power increased by 20%, success rate by 30%, and production speed by 30%. Upon reaching the third level, his power increased by an extra 5%. This meant that the talismans he made had an additional 20% effect. Combined with the Grandmaster-Level Talisman Craftmanship skills, his talisman could already be considered Supreme-grade symbols.
He gave this batch of talismans to Li Yuan Qing, earning himself a large number of Spirit Stones. However, with the Liu Yun Sect’s intervention, the price of the talismans was starting to decline. Even so, he made a large profit.
He now had over three thousand Spirit Stones. But when converted to Medium Grade Spirit Stones, it was just around thirty.
Back in Qing Yun City, the battles were getting intense. Ordinary Evil Spirits, which normal Qi Refining Cultivators couldn’t deal with, vanished into thin air under the effects of the Grandmaster-Level Exorcism Charms.
As for the more powerful Evil Spirits, Li Yuan Qing did not waste any time and directly tossed an Exorcism Charm at them. The Evil Spirits screamed in pain before being eliminated by the Flying Sword carrying the Exorcism Charm.
Upon possession by Evil Spirits, the bodies were then dealt with by the
Grandmaster-Level Rebirth Charm, preventing them from turning into Evil
Spirits. As a result, the number of Evil Spirits in the city was growing smaller.
On the first day of the lockdown in Qing Yun City, a few Evil Spirits also appeared in the Outer Sect Spiritual Field Plantation Area of the Liu Yun Sect. However, their numbers were few and their power somewhat weak.
Nonetheless, Lin Yi plastered unactivated Exorcism Charms inside and outside his house. Once activated, the power of the talismans would gradually fade over time.
Even so, having some protection was better than none. As many creatures have a memory of fear, some Evil Spirits might have suffered from the Exorcism Charms before and couldn’t help but flee upon seeing them.
Seeing this, Old Huang joked that even if the Evil Spirit’s grandfather came, he wouldn’t dare to enter.
Lin Yi wanted to put some charms on Old Huang’s house, too, but was denied by the old man who claimed that being a skinny old man on the verge of death, he wouldn’t be a target for the Evil Spirits.
At night, when the old man was asleep, Lin Yi secretly smeared some Symbol
Water mixed with the materials of the Exorcism Charm on his door and walls. Given Old Huang’s help in dealing with the targeting from Zhang Yuan Cheng, it was only right for him to return the favor.
At night, Lin Yi continued to make talismans in his underground chamber, which was covered with dozens of Exorcism Charms. The walls were smeared with Symbol Water mixed with special Exorcism Charm materials. Even if Evil Spirits could penetrate walls and soil, seeing a room full of Exorcism Charms would stun them.
For safety reasons, he brought both Zhi Ling and Big Black into the chamber. Big black was one of the big dogs raised by Lv Qing Ming.
When he heard the name, Zhi Ling nodded in satisfaction and agreed. So, with two votes in favor, it was decided..
