After returning to the sect, Liu Qingyan first went to the main peak Zongwu Hall to hand in the task of Red-Eyed Snake Pill, and got 100 sect contribution points. Outer disciples need to complete the task of 10 contribution points every year, and these 100 contribution points are enough to pay for him. Ten years of work.
The role of sect contribution points does not end there. Sect disciples can also use their contribution points to exchange for materials, exercises, secret techniques, etc., and exchange them with the sect. It is 20% cheaper than buying them in the market. As long as there are enough contribution points, Rare treasures in the sect's treasure house can also be exchanged, which is very practical.
Most cultivators have fair skin. The higher the cultivation level, the fewer impurities in the body. Hei Chengliu Qingyan, a disciple of the Xuanyu Sect, is almost not like this. After a visit to the Zongwu Hall, he received a lot of side glances because of his skin color.
He used the juice of the spiritual grass to smear all over his body, and it couldn't be seen at all. For such a weirdo like him, everyone could only sigh with emotion, or at most laugh a few times. This was the most painless thing for Liu Qingyan. Just forget it.
After returning to the small courtyard of Zhenfeng, Liu Qingyan sorted out the storage bags of Ning Min and others. Apart from some commonly used talismans, elixirs, magic tools, etc., there were only spiritual stones. He had magic tools and medicine pills. He won't keep it. After all, other people's elixirs are not as good as his own. He only needs the sword for the magic weapon. After getting rid of the things at hand this time, it is time to change the mid-level silver sword magic weapon that he usually uses.
The talisman can be kept as a spare. As for the spiritual stones, no one can have too many.
In addition, Guo Wu's storage bag contained several pieces of good-quality ore, presumably to be used to build natal magic weapons after he established the foundation. Su Yuan's storage bag also contained some gadgets with strange effects. Liu Qingyan took them All stayed.
After resting for a day, Liu Qingyan went to Xuanyumenfang City. It was still the Zhenbao Pavilion. This time he was received by a female cultivator in the late stage of Qi training.
The female nun had a delicate appearance, and her attitude towards him was not different because of her dark complexion. She was very qualified.
Liu Qingyan knew the rules of Zhenbao Pavilion, so she put all the belongings of those people in a storage bag and handed it to the female cultivator.
The female cultivator took it, looked at it carefully, and gave an estimate of five thousand spirit stones. Liu Qingyan agreed after thinking for a while, and put the parts of the red-eyed snake except the demon pill in another storage bag and handed it to The female cultivator got seven hundred spiritual stones. Because the eyes of red-eyed snakes are excellent materials for refining weapons, the price is higher than that of ordinary fourth-level monsters.
The Treasure Pavilion has its own rules, so there is no need to worry about anyone tracing the origin of the items for sale. After getting the spirit stone, Liu Qingyan asked her if she had a sword-shaped magical weapon of good quality.
The female cultivator turned around and went to the treasure house. When she came out, she was holding three rectangular boxes.
First, open the first box. Inside lies a dark blue long sword with a blue spar inlaid on the hilt. The female cultivator introduced: "Fellow Taoist, please see, this sword is called the Lishui Sword. It is a top-grade magic sword." The weapon is made from the spine of a fifth-level green water beast, and has the effect of sound attack. The hilt is inlaid with a water storage stone, which can store water in the water storage stone in advance. When using the water sword technique, half of the spiritual power can be saved."
Liu Qingyan was noncommittal and turned her attention to the second box.
Seeing this, the female cultivator then opened the second box. Inside was a pale golden long sword. The sword body was only one-third as wide as an ordinary magic sword. The sword hilt was equipped with array patterns. Looking at the sword body, it exuded a faint scent. The aura of gold stirred in Liu Qingyan's heart, but there was no abnormality on her face.
The female cultivator introduced: "This sword is called a glazed sword. It is also a high-grade magic weapon. It is refined from Xinjin iron ore. It is extremely sharp. The hilt is equipped with a dazzling array. Once activated by spiritual power, it will appear instantly. Thousands of golden lights, with a little bit of the power of gold in them, can not only enhance the power of the attack, but also dazzle and disturb the enemy. However, it takes a lot of spiritual power to activate this formation."
Liu Qingyan was still speechless, so the female cultivator then opened the third box. In that box was a translucent short sword. There was no flash of brilliance around it, and it was impossible to tell what its attributes were. But she placed it in the third box. An introduction must be extraordinary.
"This sword is called the Shadowless Sword. It could have been a top-grade magic weapon. It was only because the refiner made some mistakes during the finishing process that it became the top-grade magic weapon it is today. This sword has no attributes and is made of a rare shadowless stone. If it is refined, There is nothing wrong with the timing. After injecting spiritual power, it can avoid the enemy's perception and achieve unexpected effects. Now, each time it is used, this effect can only last for five breaths. Of course, if you can find another shadowless stone, you can use it again. Refining it may not make it into a top-quality magic weapon."
As long as anything reaches the highest level, it can be encountered but cannot be sought. This sword has the potential to become the highest level magic sword, and its effect is also very satisfactory. Liu Qingyan is a little moved, but the shadowless stone is very rare. I wonder if I will be lucky enough to encounter it. superior.
After listening to the introductions of the three, Liu Qingyan did not express his preference for any magic sword, but asked lightly: "I wonder how much these three swords cost?"
The female monk said: "The Li Shui Sword requires 3,500 spiritual stones, the glazed sword has 4,000 spiritual stones, and the Shadowless Sword requires 7,000 spiritual stones. However, fellow Taoists sell a lot of materials in my pavilion. If you spend enough, Five thousand spirit stones, I will make the decision to reduce the amount of five hundred spirit stones for fellow Taoist."
Zhenbao Pavilion is still so good at doing business. After thinking about it, Liu Qingyan said: "I want both the glazed sword and the shadowless sword. Can I reduce the cost of a thousand spirit stones?"
The female cultivator smiled broadly and said, "It's natural." After saying that, she took back the box containing the Li Shui Sword, while the glazed sword and the shadowless sword remained in place. It was so easy to make a deal of ten thousand spiritual stones. She can also get a lot of commissions herself, and her mood is naturally beautiful.
In addition to the 5,700 spirit stones obtained from selling those people's things and the red-eyed snake, Liu Qingyan spent more than 4,000 spirit stones on his own to take down the two swords.
In addition, some talisman papers and cinnabar were added. Seeing his generosity, the female cultivator also gave a lot of talisman papers as gifts.
As a result, there were not many spiritual stones left from selling the talismans. Liu Qingyan, who had an empty pocket, had to draw more talismans to save rations for Amao.
Next, Liu Qingyan resumed his days of practicing, making talismans and taking classes.
But this time, in addition to going to Fu Feng to attend classes, Liu Qingyan also attended some formation courses at the formation peak where he belonged. It would not work for someone like him who knew nothing about formations to be away from home. He did not want to be able to set up formations, but wanted to After falling into the formation, you can find the opening of the formation and break out of it.
In addition, he also used his sect contribution points to go to the library and copy several jade slips about spiritual herbs, spiritual beasts and ores. He knew some basic knowledge well and could no longer do what he did before. , there is a treasure in front of you, but you don’t recognize it.
The Xuanyu Sect is very humane in training its disciples. Those disciples who have no masters can also freely go to the classes set up by each peak to study. After a period of precipitation, Liu Qingyan finally got rid of the habit of only focusing on cultivation. , a state of turning a blind eye to other things.
After being able to skillfully make first-level talismans, Liu Qingyan began to try second-level talismans. This time, he chose to start with the divine walking talisman.
As a second-level talisman, the Divine Walking Talisman can be attached to the legs to speed up walking, and the flying magic weapon can be attached to the flying magic weapon to speed up the weapon. The former is for Qi-training monks, and the latter is for Foundation Builders and above. For monks.
However, after all, the magic walking talisman is only a second-level talisman. The bonus effect of a single talisman on the flying magic weapon is not obvious. The effect of the talisman is one-time. Only a large number of magic walking talismans are superimposed together to have an impact on the speed. There is an obvious bonus effect, but the talisman also costs spiritual stones to buy. Generally, if monks want to speed up the flying speed of flying magic weapons, they will tend to buy higher-level magic weapons.
Compared with first-level talismans, making second-level talismans requires higher spiritual power control. After comparing "Fundamentals of Talismans" and the records on the stone chamber's jade slips, Liu Qingyan began to draw divine lines on the talisman paper. The runes of the talisman.
The magic walking talisman is based on the power of wind. Mutated wind spirit root monks are born with extraordinary affinity for wind. Wind spirit root is mutated from wood spirit root and fire spirit root. It imitates the trajectory of wind force and needs to strengthen its power against wood spirit. and control of fire spiritual power.
Liu Qingyan concentrated the wood spiritual power and the transformed fire spiritual power on the right hand holding the talisman pen. He held his breath and concentrated, visualizing the runes of the magic talisman in his mind, and slowly started writing.
The red and blue spiritual energy gathered at the tip of the pen and slowly condensed into a stream. Together with the cinnabar, they drew a rune on the talisman paper. As expected, within a breath, the talisman paper was scrapped due to spontaneous combustion.
This was just the only way to learn a new kind of runes. Liu Qingyan didn't take it seriously. He took out another piece of rune paper, adjusted his spiritual power, and continued to draw the runes of the magic rune on the rune paper.
In addition to striving to become familiar with the shape of the runes, Liu Qingyan also tried his best to visualize the feeling of wind in her heart, flowing and ethereal, and using the wind's force to follow the force.
The sky outside the window went from bright to bright, then bright to dark, and in the cycle, Liu Qingyan was still concentrating.
More than ten days later, as the runes drawn with cinnabar emitted a bright light, Liu Qingyan's first magic rune was finally completed.
If he hadn't taken Bigu Pill beforehand, he would have been so hungry that his chest was touching his back.
When drawing a new type of rune, he always likes to finish it in one go and will never give up until he achieves his goal. Every failure is to accumulate experience for success. In order not to let the little insights lost when he fails, he draws the familiar line over and over again. Rune, every time you make a little progress, the accumulation of thousands of failures is success.
The reason why Liu Qingyan's success rate in making talismans is so high is, first, because the concept of natural talismans contained in the stone chamber jade slips is superior to the current talisman-making methods circulated in the world of cultivation today, and secondly, because With his stubborn heart, every time he made a talisman was a training that he forgot all about food and sleep.
After he succeeded in drawing the first divine walking talisman, he thought back to the smooth flowing feeling when he successfully drew the divine walking talisman, and he continued to work hard to consolidate this feeling.
It wasn't until all the blank talisman papers at hand were exhausted that he put down the talisman pen in his hand, went to the living room next door, fell down on the bed, and fell into a dark sleep.
