310 Spirit Stones, Tier 1 Talisman Crafting Inheritance (Please Bookmark)

"180 Low-grade Spirit Stones? Too little!"

Hearing the Old Man's offer, Qi Chuan shook his head and reached out to pick up the Half-destroyed Top-grade Magic Tool from the counter, looking as though he intended to take it back and no longer sell it.

Seeing this, the Old Man knew he could not easily swindle Qi Chuan. Fearing that Qi Chuan would truly withdraw it from sale, he hurriedly said, "Esteemed guest thinks it's too little? You can make a counteroffer, you can make a counteroffer..."

"1,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones, and this Half-destroyed Top-grade Magic Tool is yours," Qi Chuan said expressionlessly, immediately raising the price to 1,000.

"1,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones? How is that possible? Even if we sold Clear Wind Pavilion, we couldn't scrape together that much! At most, 200 Low-grade Spirit Stones..."

The Old Man seemed to have been startled badly enough to nearly leap up. His face flushed red as he spoke.

Qi Chuan also knew that this Half-destroyed Top-grade Magic Tool was naturally not worth so many Spirit Stones.

The poorest Top-grade Magic Tools generally sold for around 1,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones, while the finest could even fetch 2,000 or 3,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones.

As for this Half-destroyed Top-grade Magic Tool, the Talisman Array engraved upon it had been utterly destroyed, leaving only about half of its primary and secondary materials.

Moreover, Qi Chuan happened to know a little about its primary material, Blue Silver Silkworm Silk Iron.

Top-grade Magic Tools refined with Blue Silver Silkworm Silk Iron as their primary material would not be particularly poor, but neither could they be particularly outstanding. They were merely average.

Therefore, even if the remaining primary and secondary materials of this Half-destroyed Top-grade Magic Tool were dismantled, they would be worth at most a few hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones.

Qi Chuan had merely opened his mouth like a lion before.

In the end, after haggling back and forth with the Old Man, Qi Chuan finally settled on 310 Low-grade Spirit Stones.

This price met Qi Chuan's expectations. This shop would make a little profit, but it would still need to dismantle the primary and secondary materials, while Qi Chuan could turn his cultivation resources into cash as quickly as possible.

It could only be said that each took what they needed.

"At this price, Clear Wind Pavilion is taking quite a loss this time..."

The two exchanged Spirit Stones for goods, and the Old Man still wore a pained expression.

Qi Chuan ignored him outright.

He merely tucked the Brocade Pouch containing the Spirit Stones into his robes, then walked straight down from the third floor beneath the Old Man's watchful gaze.

"Clear Wind Pavilion certainly has deep pockets, to even take in Half-destroyed Top-grade Magic Tools."

After leaving Clear Wind Pavilion and returning to the Marketplace street, Qi Chuan glanced back at its signboard and thought to himself.

Originally, seeing the state of this Marketplace, Qi Chuan had thought he would be unable to sell it at all. He had already prepared himself to bring the Half-destroyed Top-grade Magic Tool back to the sect and deal with it later.

Unexpectedly, Clear Wind Pavilion had taken it, and even offered a decent price.

After all, at 310 Low-grade Spirit Stones, Clear Wind Pavilion might make a little profit, but it definitely would not make much.

"Perhaps Clear Wind Pavilion has some strength because it is considered the best shop in this Marketplace." Qi Chuan shook his head.

After giving Clear Wind Pavilion another glance, Qi Chuan temporarily stopped dwelling on the matter and headed along the street toward the Marketplace exit.

As he walked, there were stalls set up by Rogue Cultivators along both sides of the street.

Qi Chuan had not paid much attention on his way here, since he had intended to first try selling the Half-destroyed Top-grade Magic Tool.

Now that he was leaving, he could take a casual look around. Although the items on these stalls were of poor quality, who knew whether gold might be hidden in the sand? Perhaps he might discover one or two good things?

Yet the truth was that Qi Chuan had overthought it.

After passing many Rogue Cultivator stalls, he did not discover anything worthwhile.

The stalls of these Rogue Cultivators mainly sold Low-grade Magic Tools, Tier 1 Low-grade Talismans, and the like.

Many of those Low-grade Magic Tools even bore unmistakable signs of wear.

As for those Tier 1 Low-grade Talismans, many were Fireball Talismans, Water Arrow Talismans, Gold Skin Talismans, Earth Wall Talismans, and Wood Vine Talismans. Invisibility Talismans were much rarer.

That was right—Talismans formed by inscribing Basic Five Elements Spells.

They were probably Talismans drawn by those Rogue Cultivators themselves. They were incomparably crude, and their power was likely not very strong. They were all inferior to the Talismans Second Master had given him back then.

"Ah, it seems the thought of picking up bargains really cannot be indulged..."

With a slight inward sigh, Qi Chuan withdrew his gaze from the Rogue Cultivator stalls and prepared to leave directly.

However, just as he withdrew his gaze, his eyes paused. He then turned to look back at one of the Rogue Cultivator stalls he had just passed.

"This is..."

At that Rogue Cultivator stall, a wooden board had been placed in front of every displayed item, with information about the item written upon it.

At that moment, on the wooden board in front of what appeared to be an ordinary booklet in the corner of the stall, several hastily scrawled words read: "Tier 1 Talisman Crafting Inheritance"!

"A Tier 1 Talisman Crafting Inheritance? How could that be..."

Looking at the crude handwriting on the wooden board, Qi Chuan could not help but stare blankly.

Wasn't a Talisman Crafting Inheritance supposed to be a precious and rare thing? Yet it was simply laid out for sale on a stall in the middle of the Marketplace street, in plain public view?

Wasn't that a little too absurd?

Still, despite thinking so, Qi Chuan approached the Rogue Cultivator stall somewhat hesitantly, intending to give it a try.

"What do you want?"

The owner of this stall was a burly, stout middle-aged Rogue Cultivator. Whether in dress or bearing, he looked exactly like a farmer from a mountain village.

When the man saw Qi Chuan standing before his stall, he raised his head. However, unlike the courteous and gentle clerk from Clear Wind Pavilion, he spoke in a rough, booming voice that nearly deafened the ear.

"May I take a look at this Tier 1 Talisman Crafting Inheritance?" Qi Chuan pointed directly at the ordinary-looking booklet in the corner of the stall.

"Go ahead. Just don't look for too long." The burly middle-aged Rogue Cultivator spoke with an unconcerned expression.

Qi Chuan was even more surprised at this.

But since the other party had agreed, Qi Chuan made a beckoning gesture. The ordinary booklet on the stall flew up and landed in his palm.

"So this is a Tier 1 Talisman Crafting Inheritance?"

Qi Chuan was deeply curious as he casually flipped through the booklet a few times.

Then, very soon, words appeared before his eyes.

You roughly browsed the Tier 1 Talisman Crafting Inheritance and attempted to comprehend how to draw a Fireball Talisman. Fivefold Critical Hit triggered. You gained fivefold rewards. Your understanding of drawing Fireball Talismans increased slightly.

You roughly browsed the Tier 1 Talisman Crafting Inheritance and attempted to comprehend how to draw a Water Arrow Talisman. Sixfold Critical Hit triggered. You gained sixfold rewards. Your understanding of drawing Water Arrow Talismans increased slightly.

As Qi Chuan continued flipping through it, lines of text related to Talismans based on Basic Five Elements Spells appeared one after another before his eyes.

At the same time, his mind gained some understanding of talisman crafting.

After digesting that understanding, Qi Chuan looked once more at the stall before him. Many crude Tier 1 Low-grade Fireball Talismans, Water Arrow Talismans, and other Talismans were displayed there.

Adding that to the "Tier 1 Talisman Crafting Inheritance" in his hand, which merely contained some simple talisman-crafting methods, records of how to draw five types of Talismans such as Fireball Talismans and Water Arrow Talismans, as well as a jumble of sloppily written notes...

Qi Chuan immediately gained a rough understanding of the situation.

He glanced at the burly middle-aged Rogue Cultivator and asked, "Did you write this Tier 1 Talisman Crafting Inheritance yourself? And were all these Tier 1 Low-grade Five Elements Talismans on your stall drawn by you as well?"

"That's right!"

Hearing Qi Chuan's words, the farmer-like burly middle-aged Rogue Cultivator nodded openly, then reached behind his backside and pulled out another stack of booklets.

He then looked at Qi Chuan with an innocent expression, his eyes filled with anticipation, and asked, "Do you want them? I have plenty more of these Tier 1 Talisman Crafting Inheritances. I wrote them all myself. If you want them, one Low-grade Spirit Stone per book. I can sell you all of them!"
