"This is..."

Seeing the clear text before him, Zhao Huai appeared somewhat surprised.

He had flipped through this sheepskin scroll before, but he had given up struggling with it because he couldn't understand it at all.

But now, with the talent of the Heavenly Heart Wisdom Eye, the obscure text had indeed become simple.

"Three Thousand... Thunder Talisman Secrets?"

Zhao Huai looked at the first line of words on the sheepskin scroll and slowly read it aloud.

The densely packed tadpole-like characters on it could easily be misread if one wasn't careful. Fortunately, Zhao Huai had the Firm Dao Heart to support him, making his mind clear and his mental strength strong.

So even though there was an invisible force protecting the parchment, he could still read the contents without any obstacles.

After reading for an hour, Zhao Huai had a preliminary understanding of what the Three Thousand Thunder Talisman Secrets was generally about.

It turned out that this was a textbook on making talismans, specializing in Thunder Dao Talismans. It could be said that it encompassed all kinds of Thunder Dao Talismans.

For example, there were top-tier talismans specifically for large-scale extermination of demons, such as the Nine Heavens Yin Thunder Talisman, the Terrifying Extinction Thunder Talisman, and the Myriad Thunder Radiant Cry Talisman; and suppression-type talismans for protecting homes and warding off evil, such as the Universe Suppression Thunder Talisman, the Black Wood Dao Thunder Talisman, and the Dragon Thunder Dao Reverse Talisman.

There were also some more basic talismans, such as the Five Elements Thunder Talisman, the Yin Yang Thunder Talisman, and the Five Thunder Righteous Method, and so on.

Zhao Huai was dazzled by what he saw.

He became increasingly curious about the identity of the Mysterious Ring's owner.

The Three Thousand Thunder Talisman Secrets was a good thing, and the unknown treasure sword was also handy. He didn't dare to eat the pills randomly for now. The wealth left behind was very useful to him and he could give it a thumbs up.

The owner should be a powerful figure in an Immortal Sect, otherwise, they wouldn't have these magical things.

This Mysterious Ring could also serve as a storage ring, carrying some items, which was still very useful to Zhao Huai.

Zhao Huai yearned for Immortal Sects.

But if one could enter a sect to cultivate, who would open a small pawnshop and practice in seclusion all alone?

In his first year settling down in the south, it wasn't like he hadn't visited those so-called Immortal Sects, but they simply wouldn't accept him.

One reason was that he was too old. Entering a sect at the age of twenty was too late for cultivation. They believed that even if he was a late bloomer, it would take him nearly fifty years to reach the Qi Refining Completion, which was too slow.

Another reason was that they all said his spiritual root was too poor and his potential was too low. They estimated that breaking through to Foundation Establishment would be his limit, which wasn't worth nurturing.

From that day on, Zhao Huai became more detached.

Fine, there were so many annoying things about cultivating immortality. He might as well slowly upgrade his fate. Why join a sect and get angry? It was really unlucky.

Initially, his cultivation speed was indeed very slow. He had practiced the outer sect skills to the peak, but his Qi Refining efficiency was still stuck at the second or third layer.

At this level, he was at most at the level of those biao shi who were guaranteed jobs in the private sector, and opening a children's martial arts hall would be barely passable.

Want to cultivate immortality? You wish! Who would have thought that Zhao Huai's accidentally obtained Mysterious-Grade fate of Diligent Achiever would directly increase his cultivation speed threefold, and the speed of his realm improvement would also rise accordingly.

In a year, he only needed to sleep in every day, water the flowers, listen to music, and watch Tofu Xi Shi when he had nothing to do, and practice casually, and his cultivation quickly reached the Qi Training Ninth Layer.

Such a life was great, but Zhao Huai discovered another problem.

What the Immortal Sect had said was true. His potential was indeed a bit low. He had been at the Qi Training Ninth Layer for so long, but he hadn't broken through to Foundation Establishment.

He felt that he was still lacking a Foundation Establishment Pill. With a Foundation Establishment Pill, it should be twice the result with half the effort.

However, Foundation Establishment Pills were not easy to buy on the market. They were in short supply and highly sought after. People without a strong background simply couldn't buy them.

Maybe he could count on this bottle of pills? Zhao Huai decided in his heart that he would go and test what kind of pills were in this bottle in a few days.

Although he was thinking in his mind, Zhao Huai's hands were not idle.

After reading the Three Thousand Thunder Talisman Secrets once, he had memorized the contents in his mind.

The next step was practical operation, turning the talisman knowledge in his mind into usable real talismans.

Zhao Huai took out a stack of blank yellow paper and began to outline on the paper with a brush according to the memory in his mind.

Thinking about it in his head was very simple, but he only realized after drawing that these bizarre symbols were really difficult to draw, especially those top-level talismans, which he couldn't draw at all. This required extremely strong mental strength! Therefore, Zhao Huai decided to start learning from the simplest ones.

The most basic Fire Thunder Dao Talisman, one of the Five Elements Thunder Talismans.

Fire Thunder Dao Talisman: Fire for dispelling demons, thunder for attracting objects, using Thunderclap Wood as the base and cinnabar brush for inscription, the combination of the two complements each other, a basic thunder talisman.

"Your requirements are quite high. Thunderclap Wood can ward off evil, but it's not cheap. It costs ten taels of silver per piece on the market."

Zhao Huai was slightly surprised.

This engraving of Thunder Dao Talismans was actually an extremely costly affair. The price of the materials inside was probably unbearable for the average person.

From this, he concluded that cultivating immortality was indeed a money-sucking activity.

But it's okay, this brother has plenty of money.

After preparing the materials, and going through repeated attempts and failures, Zhao Huai quickly drew his first Thunder Dao Talisman.

His martial arts talent was now surprisingly high. No matter how difficult the cultivation technique, mental cultivation method, or skill, he could quickly learn it. In the end, he still had to thank his Heavenly Heart Wisdom Eye.

Zhao Huai picked up the newly drawn Thunder Dao Talisman, just wanting to test the power of the Fire Thunder Dao Talisman.

But there was a knock on the door.

"Knock, knock."

The knock was very light and the rhythm was slow.

Zhao Huai heard it and couldn't help but wonder who would come to him when it was already dark.

Although his relationship with the neighbors near and far was not bad, no one would come knocking at this time.

Outside the window, the sun was setting in the west, and the lanterns in front of the shops were lit up. The atmosphere of human life was very strong. At the Vegetable Market Entrance, the neighbors were starting their stoves to cook, and all kinds of steaming snacks made the streets smell fragrant, and the night market was opening one after another.

Zhao Huai came to the door, opened the latch, and opened the door nimbly.

But the person he saw when he opened the door stunned him.

A graceful lady was standing at the door, smiling at him.

Yu Qinghan was holding a small wooden food box in both hands, wearing an elegant long dress, with a smile on her lips, her Phoenix Eyes narrowed into slits.

"Miss Yu, why are you here?"

Zhao Huai rubbed his eyes, not daring to believe what he was seeing, and asked in surprise.

The two of them had only agreed to meet on the day of their wedding, but unexpectedly, she came after only an afternoon, and with luggage. What kind of divine development was this? "Young Master, have you eaten?"

Yu Qinghan blinked her beautiful eyes expectantly.

"Uh, not yet."

Zhao Huai scratched the back of his head, feeling embarrassed.

He had been drawing Thunder Dao Talismans for a long time, and had forgotten everything else, including eating.

Yu Qinghan smiled and said, "I heard that the Tofu Xi Shi in East City sells good tofu, so I bought some to try and made it into dishes. I also troubled the matchmaker to find out the Young Master's residence, so I brought some over."

"Why don't we eat together?"

Zhao Huai smiled when he heard this.

Eat tofu? That's great.

He really liked to eat tofu.
