Under the guidance and guidance of Shang Xia, the great Talisman master, Futang's strength and foundation have been improved overall.
However, what makes the academy's senior management regretful is that although the number of third-level Talisman Masters in the Talisman Hall has now reached seven, there is still no one who has become the second fourth-level Talisman Master of Tongyou Academy after Shang Xia.
However, this is not due to Shang Xia's self-preservation, or due to other external factors.
The gap between the third-level martial talisman and the fourth-level martial talisman is even more difficult than the promotion of a warrior from the third-level martial arts realm to the fourth-level martial arts realm. If you want to cross this gap, you can only use the talisman master's own talisman. Find the reason in Tao attainments.
Although Shang Xia made all the fourth-level martial talismans inherited from Futang and publicly displayed them to all the talisman masters in Futang.
However, these talisman masters can gain some enlightenment by observing these talismans and thus improve certain aspects of their talisman-making skills. However, it still takes a certain amount of time to directly copy fourth-level talismans.
However, according to Shang Xia's expectations, it won't be too long before the second great Talisman Master appears in the Talisman Hall. It can take up to five years or as short as two or three years. A second fourth-level Talisman Master will inevitably appear in Tongyou Academy. division.
Of course, this kind of great talisman master cannot be compared with the nearly all-powerful fourth-level talisman masters like Shang Xia. At best, they can only study the inheritance of one of the fourth-level talismans and strive to increase the success rate to more than 30%.
And this is almost the path taken by most Talisman Masters in Cangsheng Realm to be promoted to Great Talisman Masters.
Bu Jingshuang and others who came back from Sanhe Island were also very efficient and quickly completed the handover of the traded materials belonging to Futang to Ren Huan.
As the fourth-level talisman craftsman with the highest skill in making talisman paper in Futang, the talisman papers made by Ren Huan are usually handed over directly to Shang Xia. Therefore, Ren Huan has already mastered the distribution of materials in the entire Futang very early on.
The reason why Shang Xia hurriedly returned to Futang was because Bu Jingshuang brought back a fifth-level exotic animal skin from Sanhe Island.
This fifth-level exotic animal skin should also come from the Lingyu world, and was obtained from the battle three years ago.
Different from the fifth-level talisman paper that can be made by using different ratios of various materials and going through extremely difficult processes, the skin of an exotic animal suitable for making talisman paper itself can reduce the difficulty of making talisman paper by about half. .
Although Ren Huan is only a fourth-level talisman craftsman, Shang Xia still hopes that he can try to make fifth-level talisman paper if he directly uses the fifth-level exotic animal skins.
Although the possibility of failure in such a risk is extremely high, this is the price that high-level talisman craftsmen must pay if they want to go further.
In addition to this exotic animal skin, Bu Jingshuang and others also brought back three fifth-level talismans from Sanhe Island, but the other party requested that after the Sanhe Tower is opened a year later, Tongyou Academy needs a fifth-level talisman. Pay compensation.
This transaction method of three pieces of paper turning into one talisman can be regarded as an established rule among the talisman masters.
In most cases, the transactions at the Sanhe Tower Trade Fair are conducted anonymously, but the fact that Tongyou Academy has a fifth-level great talisman master does not need to be anonymous. Moreover, because of Shang Xia's need to hone the fifth-level talisman-making skills, I wish more people would know.
In fact, every time the Sanhe Tower Trade Fair opens, Tongyou College's high-level trade of fourth-level and above high-level martial talismans has always been hot, and it can often be exchanged for Tongyou College for many rare and rare resources.
This is because the academy has always had extremely strict control over martial arts of level four and above. In the few years after the two worlds were unified, the situation in Youzhou was relatively calm. After the expansion of the state, the shortage of resources was greatly improved, so this was allowed. A small amount of high-level martial talismans are traded every year.
Even so, there is still an endless stream of warriors who come to the shops and pavilions opened by the academy on Sanhe Island to seek talismans every year.
With these three fifth-level talisman papers, plus the five fifth-level talisman papers that Shang Xia had traded and accumulated through various channels in the previous three years, the number of fifth-level talisman papers in Shang Xia's hands reached eight. If Ren Huan this time If the attempt is successful, this amount can be increased again, enough for Shang Xia to squander for a while.
Although he is not proficient in the production of fifth-level talismans, because this involves some transformation of fifth-level talismans by Shang Xia, he is extremely concerned about Ren Huan's making of fifth-level talismans.
In the end, Ren Huan couldn't bear the fact that someone was always staring at him while he was making the talisman, so he drove Shang Xia out under the stunned gaze of his assistants.
Shang Xia probably realized that he was too eager and his mentality seemed a little unstable, so he prepared to make a batch of fourth-level martial talismans to calm down the panic.
Several third-level talisman masters who were interested in going further hurried over after hearing the news. After getting the names and sequences of the fourth-level talismans he planned to make from Shang Xia, they automatically divided them into three batches and began to take turns observing his making of talismans. process.
Shang Xia is already very good at making fourth-level talismans. However, although the production cycle of each fourth-level talisman is extremely short, for third-level talisman masters who have not yet advanced to the martial evil realm, observing and practicing one The process of making martial talismans will still cause a great drain on his mind, and it will take a long time to recover.
Therefore, when the third-level talisman masters of Futang were observing Shang Xia making high-level talismans, except for the two talisman masters who had reached the fourth level of cultivation, everyone else would observe for a period of time and wait for a period of rest before observing again.
At the same time, several third-level talisman masters in Futang have concentrated their research on fourth-level talismans on a certain talisman. Therefore, when observing the talisman made by Shang Xia, they usually focus on their own talisman. On a certain fourth-level talisman that I researched.
Shang Xia spent nearly two months in seclusion this time to make talismans, squandering nearly twenty talisman papers accumulated by Fu Tang in the past year.
I have to say that Tongyou Academy has accumulated quite a lot of wealth in the past two or three years. It can easily accumulate nearly twenty fourth-level talisman papers almost every year, which was almost unimaginable before.
I still remember that after Shang Xia became a fourth-level great talisman master, the entire Tongyou Academy and even the entire Youzhou, from Kou Chongxue to every warrior, almost all the family wealth accumulated over the past decades was wiped out, and it was nothing more than a meager amount. I gathered thirty pieces of fourth-level talismans, which were simply shabby.
In Shang Xia's hands, these twenty fourth-level talisman papers turned into four types, totaling 13 completed talismans, with a success rate of 65%. This was mainly because he chose to make the more powerful and difficult fourth-level talismans. Martial talisman.
Some of these thirteen completed talismans will be handed over directly to the academy for reserve, and some will be handed over to people seeking talismans from other states. If there are any left, the Talisman Hall will accumulate them as chips for future transactions of various resources.
Of course, according to the established rules, there are naturally some benefits of Shang Xia, but this has already been taken into account other aspects.
After completing the production of this batch of fourth-level talismans, Shang Xia took a break to recover his lost energy and spirit, which also gave him time to calm down and prepare for the production of fifth-level talismans.
Regarding the transformation of the new talisman, Shang Xia had already deduced it countless times in his mind, and now he just had to verify it with his own hands.
Several fifth-level talismans have now been prepared. Even though there are not many fifth-level talismans, they still continued the friendship from the battle three years ago and traded a complete piece from Yi Jingzi of Tianxing Palace in Yizhou. The fifth-level talisman is enough to be used at least three times.
Only the use of talisman pens in Shang Xia is still lacking. Whether it is a purple bamboo pen or a white bone talisman pen, the grade of the top-grade sharp weapon is just right for making fourth-level martial talismans. It can be used to make fifth-level martial talismans. It seemed a bit forced.
But it would be difficult to make a talisman pen with a quality higher than these two talisman pens.
You must know that even these two talisman pens were obtained from other states. The tool hall of Tongyou Academy currently does not have the ability to make high-quality talisman pens. As for Ren Baibai, although he has good skills in repairing sharp weapons, let him He made a complete talisman pen and still got blinded.
However, Ren Bainian once made another suggestion to Shang Xia, that is, if he can find a fifth-level animal bone suitable for making a pen holder, then he may try to replace the holder of the Bone Talisman Pen, so that the Bone Talisman Pen Although the pen will not complete a qualitative change in grade, it will probably enable Shang Xia to obtain a talisman pen that has always been similar to a "demigod weapon".
Of course, if Shang Xia could find a fifth-level purple jade bamboo, then Ren Baibai could also try to transform the purple bamboo pen.
Shang Xia stayed in the Talisman Hall for nearly a month and held an internal Talisman meeting within the academy and two small Talisman gatherings within the Talisman Hall. He patiently explained to many Talisman Masters many of the problems they encountered in the process of making Talisman. to the problem.
Three months passed in the blink of an eye, and news finally came from Ren Huan. Although it was not very good, two fifth-level talisman papers were still made.
For a fourth-level talisman craftsman like Ren Huan, the key to fifth-level talisman paper is not how many can be made, but the ability to make it, which is a leap forward in his production of talisman paper.
Including these two newly made fifth-level talisman papers, the total number of fifth-level talisman papers in Shang Xia's hands has reached ten, and what Shang Xia is about to start is his third journey of making fifth-level talismans.
Because there were only ten opportunities, Shang Xia had to plan carefully and make thorough preparations in advance. For this reason, he spent nearly a month adjusting his state and constantly making deductions to find the best opportunity to write. .
This can be regarded as an original talisman-making technique with a strong personal style created by Shang Xia.
Although he did not sense the hidden inspiration, after a month of careful preparation, Shang Xia finally found an opportunity to best match his own state with the external environment, and immediately began to draw the fifth-level "Ling". Yuanfeng Xufu".
Shang Xia, or the entire Tongyou Academy, currently only has two complete fifth-level martial talisman inheritances.
Compared with the fifth-level "substitute talisman", the production of "Linyuan Fengxu talisman" is much simpler.
Because they had made sufficient preparations in advance, Shang Xia successfully made a "Linyuan Fengxu Talisman" in just two opportunities.
This martial talisman was given by Tongyou Academy at the request of others and needs to be returned to them at the next Sanhe Tower Trade Fair.
However, according to the rule of "three pieces of paper make one talisman", this time Shang Xia earned an extra fifth-level talisman paper for Futang.
After cultivating for a period of time and adjusting his condition to its peak, Shang Xia began to make a "substitute".
Shang Xia personally was quite eager to make a "substitute talisman", especially when Shang Xia had not refined the complete Yuangang of Heaven and Earth and could not condense the incarnation of Yuan Gang, the "substitute talisman" was almost equivalent to giving him more Give a life.
