Half a year later, Shaoyangfang City.
Although it is early spring, the weather is still a little cool.
Su Fan was wearing a half-worn gray cotton robe, sitting in front of a roadside stall, holding an ancient book and reading it with gusto.
"Xiao Fan, business is good today."
Hearing the words of the old man next to him, Su Fan put down the book and said with a smile: "Thanks to your old age, it's still possible..."
"It has to be you Talisman Masters. With this skill, you can expect great success."
Su Fan smiled, did not answer, picked up the book and continued reading.
The old guy next to me is a chatterbox. If you keep talking, he will never stop talking.
Compared with a few months ago, his image is completely different, and even the most familiar people cannot recognize him.
As a body builder, changing your body and appearance couldn't be easier.
Today's Shaoyangfang has long changed.
The last time the demonic cultivators invaded, the strength of the Shaoyang Sect was greatly damaged, and the foundation-building ancestor was also injured in the Qin Kingdom.
After the invasion of demon cultivators, Qingxuanzong of the Qin State took over the management of Shaoyangfang City on the grounds of its important location.
Shaoyangfang also became a transportation hub and was the only place in Chu where flying boats could dock during the war.
Every few days, a flying boat will come to Fang City, responsible for transporting personnel and training resources to the Qin War Zone.
Loose cultivators can also take a flying boat to other mortal countries in Yongzhou, but the price is three medium-grade spiritual stones.
With the flying boat docked, the number of people in Shaoyangfang gradually increased.
Qingxuanzong rebuilt Shaoyangfang, nearly doubling its area, strengthened the Fangshi formation, and sent a foundation-building monk to stay in charge for a long time.
A large piece of open space was also specially opened to centrally manage the scattered stalls in the market.
Now that the war is over, Qingxuanzong has no intention of withdrawing from Fangshi.
Facing the Jindan Sect, the Shaoyang Sect didn't even dare to let out a single fart. They simply sealed the gate and acted like a coward.
After the last catastrophe, many casual cultivators around Fangshi died.
In addition, at least half of the casual cultivators who went to Qin to participate in the war were reduced, and the number of casual cultivators in Shaoyangfang was reduced by 30%.
But within a few days, casual cultivators from other places began to pour into Shaoyangfang.
Instead of decreasing, the number of casual cultivators around Fangshi has increased a lot.
Su Fan also took the opportunity to change his identity and became a new Talisman Master who settled in Shaoyangfang. He would set up a stall to sell Talisman in the market every few days.
I've already thought of a name, it's Fan Su.
In addition, Su Fan changed his appearance again, rented two apartments nearby, and often rotated around the city with several identities.
It took more than two months to process the magical instruments, storage bags, and unused elixirs in Fangshi in batches.
It was not until last month that the dispute between immortals and demons in Qin came to an end.
It is said that the fighting situation in the final stage was extremely tragic.
The war has spread to several surrounding states, and the Demon Sect of Ningzhou, as well as the Sword Sect of Ganzhou and Lanzhou, are all involved.
Fortunately, several immortal and demon sects from the Western Wilderness intervened, and this was able to calm down.
In recent days, a large number of Xianzong monks and casual cultivators from all over the country have returned from Qin, and many of them will be repairing in Shaoyangfang for a few days.
Especially for casual cultivators, they might as well set up a stall here, deal with all the resources in hand, and exchange them for spiritual stones as soon as possible.
There were also the casual cultivators who survived the night when the demonic cultivators broke through Shaoyangfang, and they all gained some benefits.
Although Fangshi was raided by demon cultivators, they were in such a hurry that there was no way they could clean it all.
This group of casual cultivators also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to sell what they had caught.
Shaoyangfang has been unprecedentedly prosperous these days. Whether it's a shop or a market, there are crowds of people everywhere.
However, with the end of the war, the prices of various resources began to fall sharply.
Those casual cultivators who can survive the war between immortals and demons can save a lot of good things in their hands.
The first thing they did when they came back was to exchange these things for spiritual stones.
Especially for talismans and magic weapons, the prices are ridiculously low.
Some things are even more half lost than before the war, but no one cares about them.
Su Fan's business has also been greatly affected.
The price of the talisman is ridiculously low.
Anyway, Su Fan didn't mean to sell talismans to earn spiritual stones, so he simply cut the price by more than half.
Although the profit is less, the sales volume has increased, and the sales are booming.
As evening approached, Su Fan got up, packed his things, and left Fangshi.
He was carrying a worn-out baggage and staggered with a hunched and thin body.
His face was sallow and he looked sick.
The washed-white cotton robe on her body was obviously a few sizes too big and looked baggy.
No one could have imagined that the loose cotton robe covered the three storage bags hanging on his waist.
What's even more bizarre is that this guy actually wears a top-grade robe as an inner lining.
The place where Su Fan lives now is not far from Fangshi, only more than two miles away.
It used to be the residence of a casual cultivator in the late stage of qi training, but it was a pity that the senior died in Qin State.
Only then did he have the opportunity to rent it and make it his new home.
Su Fan walked into an alley and exchanged polite words with several neighbors.
Then he came to a yard, unlocked the door and entered the house.
The new home is not only in a good location, but also quite large. The yard in front of the house alone is nearly 100 square meters.
The yard is paved with large blue stones, stone tables and chairs are arranged, and a flower bed of more than 20 square meters is left.
Su Fan has already thought about growing various vegetables here in the future.
What kind of flowers can be planted on a good piece of land? Can they be eaten?
Entering the house is a hall with a talisman making room and a training room on both sides. Further inside is a bedroom. The kitchen and storage room are located at the back of the hall.
Su Fan rearranged it according to his own needs.
The furnishings in the house are simple, the hall is covered with blue bricks, and there are only a few pieces of wooden furniture. There is an Eight Immortals table, a matching coffee table, and a long case.
There is a rosewood wooden table placed by the window, and two pearwood chairs stand on either side.
There are two rows of bookshelves in the talisman-making room, and a rosewood talisman-making table.
An animal skin tablecloth was spread out on the table, and a set of fine talisman-making tools was placed on it.
Next to the table, there is a high table with a brass incense burner. The fragrance is light and elegant, and the smell is calming and relaxing.
The training room was empty, except for a futon in the middle of the room and a small incense burner next to it.
Below the house, there is a basement of more than 100 square meters. Several luminous stones embedded in the wall make the basement as bright as day.
This is the place where the senior used to practice spells and magic weapons.
The surrounding walls and floors have been repeatedly reinforced with "fossil talismans", and there are several black ironwood targets placed inside.
The senior has lived here for decades and has taken good care of every aspect of the house.
Of course, the rent for this house isn’t cheap either.
Ten spirit stones per month, and the rent must be paid for a full year each time.
When Su Fan came across such a good house, he rented it without even thinking about it.
Fortunately, he rented it early. In addition, it was the most depressed period of the city, so there were many vacant houses.
If he had waited a little longer, the house might not be in his hands.
Su Fan has lived a very fulfilling life in the past six months.
Except for going to the market to set up stalls for a few days every month, the rest of the time is spent practicing exercises and spells.
Su Fan came to the training room and sat cross-legged on the futon.
He opened the panel. After several months of practice, all aspects of data had changed greatly.

The first is the realm of cultivation. A few days ago, the third level of Qi training was completed.
As a result of taking Huang Ling Dan, the progress of the third level of Qi training on the panel has nearly doubled, and it can increase by about fifteen points every month.
In the past few days, the bottleneck has been loosened a little, and the breakthrough will only happen in the past few days.
In addition, he now takes some time to practice the "Youmo God Forging Technique" every day.
Because of the assistance of the "Soul Refining Pill", he quickly broke through to the second level. As the pill was exhausted, the speed also slowed down.
The spiritual consciousness has not increased much, but the divine soul has become purer and more solid.
He also ate all those bottles of "Qi and Blood Pills". Not only did he become a lot more powerful, but his physical strength also increased.
I don't know how much it has increased, but the proficiency of "Heng Lian Body Training" has increased by dozens of points.
The two elixirs were indeed extraordinary, but it was a pity that they were gone.
The most annoying thing is that even if you have spiritual stones, you can't buy them on the market.
Xingyiquan and Jiuji Chain Slash have been refined to the smallest detail, and they have finally undergone a qualitative change.
Not only is the power greatly increased, every move is extremely powerful, and it also has some changes.
As for what kind of changes, Su Fan couldn't tell.
The new spells include "Void Spirit Magic" and "Object Control Technique", and now they have reached a small level.
As for the soul required for practicing the "Void Spirit Method", it is also very simple.
Su Fan deliberately created several opportunities for the bandit cultivators, and he extracted the souls of several desperadoes.
And he practiced the "Object Control Technique" just to add some different attack methods when fighting in the future.
Su Fan carefully studied the "Secret Collection of Heavenly Corpses" and specifically learned the "Corpse Control Technique" and the "Spiritual Corpse Control Technique".
"Corpse Control Technique" is known without explanation.
"The Art of Controlling the Corpse of the Gods" is a very magical spell.
You can put a ray of your own consciousness into the zombie's body, and when you control the zombie, you can control it as easily as you can.
After half a year of accumulation, Su Fan's experience in making talismans has greatly increased, and he can now make six types of talismans.
Although they are all low-grade auxiliary talismans, they are essential talismans for casual cultivators in the wild, and they are among the best-selling ones.
And the success rate is more than 50%, especially the "evil evil talisman" has reached 80%.
Since he accepted the talisman-making inheritance of Shuiyun Sect, the talismans he made were more effective than most of the wild talisman cultivators.
Moreover, he set up a stall selling talismans in the market not to earn spiritual stones, and the prices of talismans were not high.
Therefore, the talismans made by Su Fan are very popular among casual cultivators in the city.
Although he doesn't make much, his monthly profit is around a dozen spirit stones.
For a casual cultivator, this is already very impressive.
The two magical powers of "Thunder Eyes" and "Thunder Ghost Steps" have already entered the realm of great achievement.
Especially the "Thunder Ghost Step", he attached great importance to it and spent a lot of time practicing it.
This magical power is definitely a magical skill for a physical practitioner.
When fighting, combined with the subtle "light body technique", the combat effectiveness will increase exponentially.
