"Brother Lu is joking. We don't have much money. We are in a hurry to raise spiritual stones to buy martial arts. Where are the extra spiritual stones to buy consumable spiritual talismans. Those can only be consumed by the children of powerful families." Luo Yuan smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Lu Xiaotian also wants that alchemy furnace that can be used by senior alchemists. You won’t have to worry about the alchemy furnace for a long time in the future. And after getting rid of the old man in black robe, he immediately started refining the Qi Gathering Pill.
However, he was also worried that if there were not enough spiritual talismans by then and he was unable to eliminate the black-robed old man at once, he would be able to collect more than a hundred spiritual stones by selling almost everything he had on him. If he failed, he wouldn't have a chance to do it again.
He was only at the second level of Qi Refining and had no way of understanding the true strength of Dzogchen in the Qi Refining Stage. However, Luo Yuan was a master at the sixth level of Qi Refining and must know more than him.
So Lu Xiaotian asked, "To be honest with Brother Luo, I have an enemy who is in the Great Perfection stage of Qi Refining, probably at the eleventh level of Qi Refining. Although he doesn't know my whereabouts, I have to buy more spiritual talismans." Defend yourself in case of emergencies. According to Brother Luo, how many spiritual talismans are needed to deal with a master of Qi Refining Dzogchen?"
"A master of the Great Perfection of Qi Refining Stage?" The expressions of the two brothers and sisters suddenly changed after hearing this.
"Yes, my master was harmed by it, and the things I have in my hands now are also left by his master. I didn't want to sell them, but other than that, I couldn't find any other way to protect myself."
Lu Xiaotian said with a wry smile. He was not willing to lie to others at will, but many people around him saw that he had just sold his skills and even the middle-grade Vitality Pill, and some people had already regarded him as a piece of cake. For this reason, he had to find a suitable reason to dispel some people's bad ideas. Firstly, he wanted to show the outside world that he only had these belongings on him. In addition, after changing the spiritual talisman, he had the spiritual talisman with him, so he was not easy to mess with.
Sure enough, hearing what Lu Xiaotian said, some fear flashed in the eyes of several people around him, but they didn't know whether they were afraid of the Dzogchen Master in the Qi Refining Stage behind Lu Xiaotian, or because they were afraid of the large number of spiritual talismans that Lu Xiaotian wanted to redeem later.
Luo Yuan thought for a while and said, "It's hard to say. I'm at the sixth level of Qi refining now. Three or four immortal cultivators in the early stage of Qi refining won't take it seriously. But if there are one or two more, it will be quite troublesome. If we don't do it right, both sides will suffer losses. If the opponent uses a better spiritual weapon, I will have no choice but to run away."
"By analogy, masters at the later stage of Qi refining should be able to defeat five or six people like me. There may be seven or eight people in the Qi refining stage. However, they should be more difficult to deal with. As for the spiritual talisman, although the power is compared to Immortal cultivators casting spells directly are slightly inferior, but the advantage is that the spell casting speed is fast enough. However, it is estimated that it will take one or two hundred primary spirit talismans to threaten the life of Qi Refining Dzogchen."
"If the opponent has a powerful defensive spiritual weapon, it may be more difficult."
"What if the opponent has no offensive or defensive spiritual weapons in his hand?" Lu Xiaotian asked with squinted eyes. When he was fighting with Situ Jing, the opponent only had a few elementary spiritual talismans in his hand and he was confused. The master of Qi Refining Dzogchen is actually so powerful.
"How is this possible without a spiritual weapon? If there is no spiritual weapon, it would be easier. It is estimated that a hundred or so spiritual talismans can kill him. After all, the body of an immortal cultivator is still a mortal body, even if it is hit by the lowest-level small fireball spiritual talisman It can also cause serious injuries." Luo Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then said.
Hearing what Luo Yuan said, Lu Xiaotian began to think twice. If he faced the black-robed old man himself, he had no interest in being hostile to him. The other party could kill him with just one strike from the golden flying sword. Even with these talismans, they may not really work. At most, they can hurt the old man in black robes. However, the opponent is now in the spirit state, which is easier to deal with than using bare hands. Speaking of which, it is enough to sell the earth-based skills in your hands and add the spiritual stones on your body.
"Thank you, Brother Luo, for clarifying my doubts. Let's do this. I want your alchemy furnace, but I won't exchange it for this local skill, but for this water skill."
"Water-based skills? We don't need them." Luo Yuan shook his head with regret.
Lu Xiaotian explained, "Listen to me, I mean, you use the spiritual stones in your hands to buy the "Hui Tu Zhen Jing", and the spiritual stones that are still missing can be offset by other spiritual objects of equal value. Then I will use This book of water-based exercises will be exchanged for your alchemy furnace. Anyway, Miss Luo Qing also runs a stall. If you don't need the water-based exercises, selling them at a stall might be better than selling the alchemy furnace."
"So that's the case, then it works." Luo Qing agreed quickly. Just as Lu Xiaotian said, the skill was easier to sell than the alchemy furnace in her hand.
Luo Qing spread the package on the ground, "You can pick out whatever you like."
"What I want most is naturally the spirit stone. I will keep the earth-based exercises for now. Let's set up a stall while there is still some time in the afternoon. Brother Luo, you can also find friends to raise money. But whatever the result is, I will tell you in the evening. I'll sell you the technique." Lu Xiaotian said.
"That's very good. I'll go get the spiritual stones right now."
Luo Yuan looked anxious, and walked away quickly with the wind at his feet, looking for acquaintances to collect spiritual stones.
Lu Xiaotian took advantage of some time to help Luo Qing set up a stall and asked some questions about Wangyue City.
In the evening, Luo Yuan returned with a happy face and raised seven more spiritual stones. However, the effect of setting up the stall was not good. He only sold one Qinglang brush in the afternoon. The two brothers and sisters counted, and only three Ten spiritual stones, three more to go.
"How about we set up a stall for a while? The night market in Wangyue City is also very prosperous, and there may be some people who want to buy."
Luo Qing was a little reluctant to say that there were only a few green wolf brushes used for drawing talismans on the stall. There are also two pieces of snow spirit wood used to make talisman ink. If she took one thing, it would be worth less than three spirit stones. If she took two things, she would be at a loss. In normal times, it wouldn't matter to them two brothers and sisters, but now they are in debt and spend everything they have to buy the exercises. At this time, Luo Qing had no choice but to make careful calculations.
"No, let's do this. I'll get another Qinglang brush and we'll be clear." Lu Xiaotian saw the embarrassment of the Luo Qing siblings and said with a smile.
"Thank you so much Brother Lu. I will repay you if you have the opportunity in the future!" Luo Yuan said with great joy when he heard this.
Lu Xiaotian returned the gift with his hand, completed the handover, and put the alchemy furnace into his bag with satisfaction. Together with his previous savings, there were 108 spiritual stones, enough to buy more than 100 low-level spiritual talismans.
"Sister, if it weren't for your full support, my eldest brother doesn't know when he would be able to buy the right technique. Now that the two of us are impoverished, I'm afraid you will have to live a hard life with my eldest brother."
After Lu Xiaotian left, Luo Yuan held the "Hui Tu Zhen Jing" in his chest as if he had found a treasure, but when he looked at Luo Qing, he looked ashamed.
Luo Qing smiled with relief and said, "We two brothers and sisters, what are you talking about? It's difficult to cultivate immortality. If it weren't for the fact that Lu Xiaotian had the late-stage Qi refining technique in his hands and went to the store to buy it, we don't know when we would be able to get it together. Enough spiritual stones."
"Besides, I still have a copy in my hand, which can be sold for dozens of spiritual stones. As long as I sell it, we will have the spiritual stones to use." After speaking, Luo Qingyang raised the water-based technique in his hand.
"Hey, this Immortal Chief, you are here again. How about it? The power of my magic talisman is not bad."
The shopkeeper of Ling Fu Store is a middle-aged man with a stout body and a secular warrior. He was settling accounts when he saw Lu Xiaotian. His eyes lit up. To do business, you need to have bright eyes, good memory and quick reactions. He remembered that Lu Xiaotian had been here in the morning, and he was considered a repeat customer this time.
Lu Xiaotian finally understood why Wangyue City, as a city of casual cultivators, had so many secular mortals.
Some of them are indeed relatives and family members of loose cultivators in the city. There is another type of people who, like the middle-aged shopkeeper in front of me, do some menial jobs. To hire such a shopkeeper, a company only needs to spend some gold and silver for mortals, while hiring a cultivator needs to spend spiritual stones. The cost between the two is very different. It is really a cost-effective deal.
"Well, if you buy more, will the price be lower?" Lu Xiaotian asked.
"Well, Immortal Chief, you also know that the talismans under my name are all clearly marked with prices. If you are honest with me, the price will not be less."
The middle-aged shopkeeper smiled carefully and said, although in Wangyue City, immortal cultivators cannot do anything to mortals, the middle-aged shopkeeper still has a sincere respect for immortal cultivators.
"Other casual cultivators at the stalls also sell spiritual talismans. The price is still low, but the quantity is relatively small. I found it troublesome, so I came to your store. I want to buy nearly a hundred spiritual talismans. If your store doesn't sell them, I will have to go elsewhere. Look again.”
Lu Xiaotian frowned and said, when he and Luo Qing set up a stall together, Luo Qing knew that he wanted to buy a lot of talismans and specifically told him that even if he was in a store, he could negotiate the price if he bought more. Lu Xiaotian naturally didn't want to be easily taken advantage of by the spirit stone.
"Nearly a hundred spiritual talismans?" The middle-aged shopkeeper was surprised and said quickly, "Immortal, wait a moment, I will inform the owner of the shop. If the immortal has anything to say, you can talk to the owner directly."
"Okay, I'll wait for you for a moment." Lu Xiaotian nodded.
"This little brother, I am the owner of the Tianwei business. I heard from my shopkeeper that he wants to buy nearly a hundred spiritual talismans? Is it true?"
Soon, an old man with white beard and hair and kind eyes walked out of the door behind the shop. He asked with a pleasant smile.
"Of course it's true. Which kind of talisman is the most effective against Yuanshen here?" Lu Xiaotian asked.
"The most powerful thing against the soul is naturally the Thunder Spirit Talisman. The thunder magic exorcises evil spirits and has a restraining effect on spirits and ghosts. However, the production of the Thunder Spirit Talisman is more difficult than the basic Fireball Technique and the Earth Shield Technique, so the price is also higher. Several times. The ordinary first-level Fireball Talisman and the Earth Shield Talisman only cost one low-grade spirit stone. But the first-level Thunder Spirit Talisman costs five."
The white-haired old man felt a shiver in his heart. It was common for cultivators to fight for treasures, and it was not uncommon for them to beat people to the point of physical and mental loss. However, it would be too ruthless for someone like the young man in front of him to buy thunder talismans specifically to deal with other people's escaped souls.
