Five Transformations Umbrella
"This is really the lowest price. You know the price of gold. Why don't you take a look at these two other defensive magic Magic Artifact? They are the work of two Artifact Refiner I know, and the price will be a bit cheaper."
Wu Wan produced two printed documents, which were his appraisal certificates, clearly showing the images and functions of the two Magic Artifact.
Chen Mobai glanced at it; one was Long-sleeve Magic Robe, and the other was an umbrella.
The Long-sleeve Magic Robe offers better defense than Helmet, but it lacks the ability to enhance Spiritual Sense. Its price is 89,000 Merit Points.
The Wooden Umbrella, on the other hand, is the cheapest, costing only 75,000 Merit Points. Its defensive capabilities are actually quite high, but it places high demands on the user, requiring the umbrella to be opened for each defensive maneuver.
However, once the umbrella is opened, it will continuously draw spiritual energy from the user, so it should generally be closed when not in use.
When Chen Mobai saw this, he felt it was perfect for him. Besides the reasonable price, it was also because he was a skilled cultivator, and the Magic Artifact's design matched the style of the Sky River Realm; Wu Wan's golden Helmet was simply too eye-catching.
"Is this umbrella from the same city, or from Weiyu Cave Heaven?"
"From the same city."
"Let's take this one. Where is it? We'll take a taxi there, we'll be there soon."
Chen Mobai's eager attitude surprised Wu Wan, but since he was paying for the ride, Wu Wan naturally had no objections.
"It is the work of a student from the Vermillion Cinnabar Academy. The umbrella handle and frame are made of first-tier Wutong Tree, and the umbrella surface is covered with First Grade Talisman Paper."
"It's more Magic Artifact to call it a talisman than a Talisman Artifact."
"There are five Defensive Talisman drawn on the umbrella surface. Theoretically, it can defend against spells of the Five Elements Attribute. However, after my verification, it can only withstand attacks from the Late Qi Cultivation at most."
While waiting for their ride, the two discussed the advantages and disadvantages of the Magic Artifact.
Although Wu Wan didn't sell his Magic Artifact, he could still make a profit from the Wooden Umbrella since it was listed in his online store, so he was quite happy.
"This student has quite a lot of ideas. The design of this Five Transformations Umbrella is excellent, aiming to transform all the five Five Elements magic in the world. It's just a pity that it's broad but not deep. It can resist the Five Elements magic cast by cultivators below the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer, but once that limit is exceeded, the Defensive Talisman will immediately become unbalanced."
"But this Wooden Umbrella has another hidden feature: after the Defensive Talisman fails, you can find a Talisman Master to redraw the Talisman you want and turn it into an offensive weapon."
"Of course, I won't write this on the certificate. If the law Police Department comes knocking on my door, I'll definitely say that you, the buyer, illegally modified it without my consent."
Wu Wan's guidance broadened Chen Mobai's horizons, and he was filled with admiration for the design of the "Five Transformations Umbrella".
This Magic Artifact can be considered half Talisman, and its usage can be changed by replacing the umbrella surface and the Talisman drawn on it. Chen Mobai certainly wouldn't have come up with such an ingenious idea without someone's guidance.
After spending 260 Merit Points to take a taxi to the Vermillion Cinnabar Academy, the student who had received Wu Wan's notification was already waiting at the gate.
They introduced themselves to each other.
"Luan Jingsheng, a sophomore."
"Chen Mobai an ordinary person."
Luan Jingsheng was a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He didn't talk much, and when he took out the Wooden Umbrella Talisman Artifact, he seemed a little reluctant to part with it.
After the two became friends, Chen Mobai immediately transferred the Merit Points to Wu Wan's shop in front of him. Then he took the Wooden Umbrella and left. As for how Wu Wan and Luan Jingsheng would handle the accounts afterward, that was none of his business.
He only had one request: to Points. For this, he paid an extra 3,750 points Merit Points a tax.
Even if the Immortal Sect Tax Bureau audits the accounts later, he was the one who paid the money, and the procedures were all legitimate and there were no problems. Even if Wu Wan went to jail for tax issues, he would still be innocent.
Chen Mobai took a taxi back home again, and then teleported to Green Light Island, just one hour before the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
Luan Jingsheng even provided a long cloth bag for the Wooden Umbrella and said that if there were any problems in the future, Chen Mobai could contact him for repairs. After their first meeting, Chen Mobai felt that this person was quite nice and that he could consider long-term cooperation.
He put the Wooden Umbrella into the cloth bag, which had a rope at the opening that could be tied to his belt.
Chen Mobai tied his Needle Box to his left wrist, slung a satchel full of more than two hundred Talisman over his shoulder, and arrived fully armed at Steward Wang's office hall, the place where he had rented the wooden house before, a place he knew well.
When he arrived, it was already quite late, and everyone was waiting for him.
"I'm sorry, I went to buy some Magic Artifact and Talisman from some friends, which took up some time."
Chen Mobai immediately apologized. Seeing that he was fully armed, the Rogue Cultivator who were initially a little impatient calmed down. After all, the better equipped their companion was, the safer they would be.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, our team of twenty-eight cultivators is responsible for guarding one of the array flag nodes of the ' Heavenly Wood Divine Light Array.' Here is the basic information."
Steward Wang handed a small booklet to Chen Mobai, then patted a blue cloth bag at his waist, and a flying boat floating in mid-air appeared in front of everyone.
"It's a storage bag!"
A female cultivator recognized the origin of the blue cloth bag at Steward Wang's waist and was greatly surprised.
Keep in mind that even the smallest storage bag costs 100 Spirit Stone. But Steward Wang's storage bag can hold a 20-meter-long flying boat; its value is probably equivalent to a Foundation Establishment.
"It's a storage bag that the sect uses specifically for allocating large quantities of goods. Uncle Zheng gave me one, and the daily Spirit Stone supply for all the fellow cultivators is also kept in here."
Steward Wang patted the storage bag at his waist with a smile, and his words made several Rogue Cultivator present show interest.
However, in this group, besides Steward Wang, who was at the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer, there were also four Divine Wood Sect disciples at the Late Qi Cultivation. They were able to completely control the situation, and no one dared to have any crooked thoughts.
But envy is still unavoidable.
Chen Mobai calculated that this group of twenty-eight cultivators, apart from five disciples of the Divine Wood Sect, were all Rogue Cultivator. Including himself, there were four Late Qi Cultivation, seven mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators, and twelve early-stage Qi Refining.
The cost of hiring them is 46 Spirit Stone per day. Generally, when Demon Beast attack an island, it takes at least a month to hold out. That means there are at least a thousand Spirit Stone in my storage bag.
With such wealth, it's no wonder that Rogue Cultivator are envious.
Under Steward Wang's command, the group boarded the flying boat. With the help of Spirit Stone, they arrived at the location of the array flags they needed to protect in just a few words.
It is a cliff on the shore, with a 10-meter-diameter piece of land enclosed by Qingshi, and a bare tree planted in the middle.
After reading the booklet, Chen Mobai knew that this was the flag.
The "Heavenly Wood Divine Light Array" is the most famous Array Formation of the Divine Wood Sect. It uses trees as array flags. The sect's main camp, Giant Wood Ridge, is protected by thousands of spiritual trees, so even Nascent Soul Ancestor would not dare to easily enter.
On this Green Light Island, a total of 36 spirit trees were transplanted from Giant Wood Ridge by the Divine Wood Sect. At their peak, these trees could reach the Third Grade.
It is precisely for this reason that the disciples of the Divine Wood Sect and the Rogue Cultivator have the confidence to defend the island.
"They're here!"
