Talisman Brush, Talisman Paper, Talisman Ink Doubled by Replication—A Huge Profit!

Before long, Li Qingyuan hurried away and returned to the Small Courtyard where he lived alone in quiet cultivation.

He shut the gate, entered his bedroom, then eagerly took out all his talisman-drawing materials.

Half a jin of talisman ink, worth 5 Spirit Stones.

Twenty sheets of Low-grade First-tier Talisman Paper material, worth 20 Spirit Stones.

And the Low-grade First-tier talisman brush Grandpa Clan Leader had given him, worth 30 Spirit Stones.

Finally, Li Qingyuan took out one Lightness Talisman he had successfully drawn.

Holding the Lightness Talisman, Li Qingyuan silently recited, "Take it in!"

The next second, the Lightness Talisman entered the Mysterious Feminine Space, then split into two—a perfect replication.

Li Qingyuan took out the two Lightness Talismans and examined them back and forth. He reached a conclusion and pondered, "It should be a replication function. The talisman rune curves are exactly identical."

The Lightness Talisman he had drawn had only barely succeeded, as his skill was not yet refined enough.

The replicated Lightness Talisman gave the same impression; its workmanship was likewise unpolished.

"Next, the Low-grade First-tier talisman brush."

"Take it in!"

The next second, Li Qingyuan's eyes lit up, and he was wild with joy. "It replicated successfully."

Inside the Mysterious Feminine Space were two talisman brushes, exactly alike—a perfect replication.

After that, the half jin of talisman ink doubled through replication, becoming a full jin.

Finally, the twenty sheets of Low-grade First-tier Talisman Paper material also doubled through replication, becoming forty sheets of talisman paper material.

"All resources have doubled. This time, I've made a killing."

Even Li Qingyuan's breathing grew heavier. Calculated in full, his current wealth had already surpassed one hundred Spirit Stones.

Other than the Clan Leader, the Great Elder, and the Second Elder, practically none of the other cultivators in the clan could compare to his wealth. Hahaha!

"Huff~" Li Qingyuan took a deep breath and calmed himself.

"Mysterious Feminine Space, learning begins~"

Li Qingyuan steadied his mind and linked his spiritual power to the Mysterious Feminine Space. Within it, he saw a shadowy figure inscribing a talisman paper—the Lightness Talisman.

The mysterious figure's talisman-drawing process was exceptionally detailed and flawless, worthy of a textbook.

Li Qingyuan held the talisman brush, dipped it in talisman ink, and closed his eyes. His spiritual power followed the steps of the mysterious figure in the Mysterious Feminine Space as he moved his brush and drew the talisman.

This time, he was even more practiced and deft than when he had first succeeded at drawing a talisman. It was completed in one smooth stroke.

Buzz, buzz!

The Lightness Talisman was complete, and spiritual qi hummed.

The talisman paper buzzed, the runes condensed, and the spiritual qi drew inward. The inscription had succeeded.

As long as a cultivator infused this talisman paper with spiritual power, it could be activated.

Li Qingyuan's eyes shifted as he pondered, "Can a Lightness Talisman drawn from replicated talisman paper material be replicated again?"

"Take it in!"

Yet this time, the Lightness Talisman could not be taken into the Mysterious Feminine Space and could not be replicated.

Li Qingyuan came to a conclusion. "It seems talisman papers drawn using replicated materials cannot be replicated again. There's no endless nesting of dolls."

"Continue drawing talismans."

Li Qingyuan continued drawing talismans. The Mysterious Feminine Space's guidance on talisman drawing gave him the feeling of clouds parting to reveal the sun, of enlightenment pouring straight into his mind. His progress was immense.

Drawing talismans, restoring cultivation... drawing talismans, restoring cultivation...

It was not until nightfall that Li Qingyuan cooked himself dinner: Spirit Rice, Spirit Beast Meat, and Spirit Medicine stewed into soup.

After eating and drinking his fill, he slept soundly to recover his energy.

Early the next morning, Li Qingyuan rose early and continued drawing talismans.

Having tasted the sweetness of successful talisman drawing for the first time, he was already addicted.

After a day of effort, out of forty sheets of talisman paper, he failed eight times and successfully drew thirty-two Lightness Talismans—a success rate as high as eighty percent.

For a beginner, this was simply inconceivable. The success rate was outrageously high.

After drawing the final Lightness Talisman, Li Qingyuan slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

"If not for the Mysterious Feminine Space's guidance, my success rate would have been at most forty percent."

"And now, after just one day, my success rate has reached eighty percent. Inscribing Lightness Talismans is no longer difficult for me."

Li Qingyuan pondered, "Based on my original comprehension ability, at a forty-percent success rate, twenty sheets of talisman paper material would only yield eight successful talismans."

"So, I'll hand eight Lightness Talismans to Grandpa Clan Leader and pretend my talisman-drawing success rate is forty percent."

"I'll keep the remaining twenty-four for myself."

Li Qingyuan knew that being too shocking was not necessarily a good thing.

Judging by his original comprehension ability and learning speed, a forty-percent success rate was already astonishing. He needed to conceal some of his ability.

Before long, Li Qingyuan found Clan Leader Li Guangao and took out the eight Lightness Talismans he had "successfully inscribed."

"A forty-percent success rate?" Li Guangao was stunned. "Out of twenty sheets of talisman paper material, you succeeded in drawing eight Lightness Talismans."

"Hiss~" Li Guangao sucked in a sharp breath. "You've only been learning talisman drawing for one day, yet your success rate is already this high?"

"Hahaha, worthy indeed of being the Kirin Son of my Li Clan."

Li Guangao stroked his beard and laughed heartily. "Haha, you've only studied talisman drawing for one day, yet your success rate has already let you break even, with a slight profit besides."

"Qingyuan, your talent in the Talisman Path is not the least bit inferior to your cultivation talent."

Li Guangao was exceedingly excited. "It seems this old man's Talisman Path Inheritance will have a successor."

"Qingyuan, over the next few days, continue familiarizing yourself with inscribing the Lightness Talisman."

"Once your success rate reaches fifty percent, this old man will teach you the method of inscribing the next type of talisman paper."

Li Qingyuan nodded happily. "All right, Grandpa Clan Leader."

Thus, over the following days, Li Qingyuan still focused mainly on meditation and cultivation, setting aside only a small portion of his time to make Lightness Talismans.

The news that he had learned the Lightness Talisman in one day and achieved a forty-percent success rate also reached the Great Elder, the Second Elder, and his father, Li Dingzhou.

The Great Elder and Second Elder were incomparably excited, their old tears streaming down their faces as they repeatedly cried that the clan had produced an unparalleled genius.

One month later, Li Qingyuan, who had been spending a small portion of every day inscribing talisman papers, "pretended" one day that his talisman-making success rate had reached fifty percent.

Thus, he gained the opportunity to learn a second type of talisman paper.

Grandpa Clan Leader Li Guangao taught him with great care, patiently guiding him with endless praise and encouragement.

Li Qingyuan studied earnestly, and his astounding comprehension allowed him to get started quickly. Combined with the Mysterious Feminine Space's private one-on-one instruction, his talisman-drawing skill advanced by leaps and bounds.

Gradually, Li Qingyuan also discovered that the First-tier Talisman Path Inheritance controlled by Grandpa Clan Leader was incomplete.

The Talisman Path Inheritance Grandpa Clan Leader had acquired by chance in his youth contained only six kinds of Low-grade First-tier talisman papers, three kinds of Tier 1 Mid-grade talisman papers, and one Tier 1 High-grade talisman paper.

Moreover, the sole Tier 1 High-grade talisman paper was a damaged version with greatly reduced power, capable only of displaying the might of a Tier 1 Mid-grade talisman paper.

This was practically a castrated version of a First-tier Talisman Path Inheritance, and a severely castrated one at that.

A truly complete First-tier Talisman Path Inheritance had to include Low-grade First-tier talisman papers, Tier 1 Mid-grade talisman papers, Tier 1 High-grade talisman papers, and even First-grade Top-rank talisman papers.

Grandpa Clan Leader said that First-grade Top-rank talisman papers were so powerful that they rivaled the full-force strike of a Qi Condensation Tenth Layer cultivator. Below Foundation Establishment, nothing could withstand them.

From this, it was clear just how severely incomplete the Talisman Path Inheritance in Grandpa Clan Leader's possession was.

Even so, this severely incomplete First-tier Talisman Path Inheritance was an important source of industry income and a vital combat support method for a third-rate Qi Condensation minor clan like the Li Immortal Clan.

Therefore, Li Qingyuan naturally had to master this craft.

His studies continued in this manner.

In the blink of an eye, half a year passed.

In just half a year, Li Qingyuan had obtained hundreds upon thousands of talisman papers.

Along with that came another worry.
