Talisman Hall's residential area is more spacious than Li Yuan expected.

Rows of stone houses line both sides of the courtyard wall. There are at least thirty or forty rooms. Most of the doors are closed tightly, and there is no smell in most of the rooms.

Li Yuan walked from the east end to the west end, and met two people on the road. One was walking out with Spirit Ink Bottle, and the other was squatting at the door and showing off Talisman Paper.

Talisman Hall There are not many people.

Li Yuan chose a stone house near the back. The house was much more spacious than the low house of Mine. A stone table was enough to spread out four or five Talisman Paper. The windows faced east and the lighting was acceptable.

Things are put away and the door latch is inserted.

Li Yuan first sits cross-legged on the bed and runs Spirit Guiding Art.

The concentration of Spiritual Qi in this area is higher than that of Mine, but not as good as He Family Herb Garden.

Pure Spirit Power is hung on Equipment Slot. When Spiritual Qi enters the body, the impurities are removed first, and the spiritual power settled in the Dantian is clean and solid.

After several weeks of walking, Li Yuan stood up and took out the second round of Body Tempering medicine solution from the storage bag.

Iron Bone Liquid.

The wax seal on the altar was opened, and the spicy medicinal smell came out. Li Yuan poured the medicinal liquid into the wooden basin prepared in advance, mixed it with water, took off his clothes and sat in.

The medicine penetrated into the skin, and the dull soreness spread again.

It's a little milder than the first round - the body has already adapted to some extent, and the muscle fibers are not so resistant to the drug. Medicinal Power Refining Affix operates as usual, the active ingredients are efficiently absorbed, and gray-black impurities are precipitated from the surface of the skin.

After two hours, the liquid was exhausted.

Li Yuan stood up, Cleaning Spell swept and changed into clean clothes.

After that, I continued to practice, interspersed with the second round of Mystic Armor Decoction medicinal bath.

When I came out of the basin all red, the sky outside the window had turned white.

On the morning of the second day, there were two knocks on the door outside the stone house.

Li Yuan Pushed the door, and there stood a monk in his forties with a square face and a Qi Refining Sixth Layer aura. He was wearing a Talisman Hall standard blue and gray robe. On his waist was a sign slightly larger than the ordinary patrol badge, with a symbol engraved on the front.

"Li Yuan?"

"Yes."

"Follow me."

The two walked west along the stone road in the residential area for a while and entered a slightly larger stone house.

There were piles of books and wooden boxes on the shelves against the wall in the room, and several books were spread out on the table. Behind the table sat another monk, in his early fifties, with the aura of Qi Refining Late Stage, flipping through a book.

"Li Yuan, Qi Refining Sixth Layer."

The monk leading the way said something to the man behind the table, and then stepped aside.

The monk behind the table raised his head, his eyes paused on Li Yuan for a moment, then he took out a new waist badge and a thin document from under the table, and placed them on the table.

The waist badge is made of copper, wider than Patrol Inspector. It has characters engraved on the front and Li Yuan's name and a line of small characters - Grade C Talisman Master on the back.

"Your identity has been transferred from Patrol Squad to the Talisman Hall, and the original Patrol Inspector waistband has been withdrawn."

Li Yuan took off the old waistband, put it on the table, and replaced it with a new one.

"Grade C Talisman Master, the lowest level."

Steward turned over a page of the book and spoke in a leisurely tone.

"Talisman Hall has no monthly salary."

He raised his eyes and looked at Li Yuan.

"Unlike Patrol Squad and Guard Squad, here Spirit Stone and Talisman Hall are issued on a fixed monthly basis and run by contributions. Receive materials, exchange for Talisman preparation methods, and exchange for Cultivation Resources, all with contributions."

"How do contributions come from?"

"Complete the Talisman Making task. Talisman Hall will issue tasks regularly, produce Talisman and hand it in, and the contribution will be settled according to quantity and quality."

Steward Close the book.

"Your previous contributions to Patrol Squad will also be transferred, but the process will take time, about seven or eight days."

"And the contribution prices on both sides are not the same and will be converted."

He took out a cloth bag from the wooden box under the table and pushed it in front of Li Yuan.

"Basic Talisman Making supplies are available for new Talisman Hall. One hundred pieces of Green-Veined Paper, four bottles of General Spirit Ink, and one box of Cinnabar. It's enough for you to use for a while."

Li Yuan took the cloth bag and weighed it.

"But you can't accept the Talisman Making mission yet."

Steward added. "Newcomers have an adaptation period. During this period, you should first familiarize yourself with the environment."

He leaned back in his chair and looked at Li Yuan.

"What do you need for now?"

"Talisman Making material for Breath-Concealing Talisman."

Steward nodded.

"Okay, I'll make a batch for you later."

"There is another one." Li Yuan said. "I want to go to the Talisman Hall Scripture Pavilion to exchange for Cultivation Method."

Steward paused for a moment.

He opened the book at hand, checked a few breaths, and closed it again.

"Do you have a quota for the Scripture Pavilion?"

"Yes."

Li Yuan took out the document he had obtained when he was stationed at the He Family and handed it over.

Steward took the document, glanced at it, confirmed the seal on it, and nodded.

"Okay, Scripture Pavilion can go at any time. Turn left when you go out and walk along the stone road to the end. The two-story building Stone Tower at the end is there."

He returned the document to Li Yuan.

"Is there anything else?"

"No more."

Steward hummed, lowered his head and continued to flip through his book. The monk who led the way sent Li Yuan out of the door, pointed in the direction of the Scripture Pavilion, and left.

Li Yuan did not go to the Scripture Pavilion immediately and returned to his residence first.

Arrange the Talisman Making materials in the cloth bag into categories. Green-Veined Paper is stacked on the corner of the table, Spirit Ink is placed next to it, and Cinnabar is placed separately.

Then roll out Talisman Paper, dip in ink, and continue with Talisman Making.

I drew a few pictures of Fireball Talisman, and the yield rate was still stable at over 70%. Then I switched to Rejuvenation Talisman for practice, and drew two more pictures of Vajra Talisman.

In the afternoon, the door of the stone house next door rang, and footsteps passed by the door.

Li Yuan put down Talisman Brush, pushed the door open and went out.

The door of the stone house across the aisle was open, and a monk in his early thirties was squatting on the stone slab at the door, laying talisman paper. He was wearing the same futang standard green gray robe as Li Yuan, his fingers were stained with spiritual ink, his complexion was yellowish, and his hair was not tied neatly.

Qi Refining Fifth Layer.

The monk raised his head when he heard the noise and glanced at Li Yuan.

"New here?"

"Just arrived yesterday."

"Oh." The monk nodded and folded the Talisman Paper in his hand. "My surname is Wei."

"Li Yuan."

Talisman Master Wei stood up and patted the dust on his trouser legs.

"There are not many people living here. Talisman Hall There are only so many Talisman Masters in total. Most of them have been sent out, and there are only a few left here."

He glanced at the closed doors on both sides of the residential area.

"What can you draw?"

"Fireball Talisman, Rejuvenation Talisman, Vajra Talisman, etc."

Talisman Master Wei hummed without commenting further.

Li Yuan followed the sentence and continued.

"What are the Talisman Making tasks of the Talisman Hall now?"

Talisman Master Wei put the Talisman Paper in his hand into the house, then walked back and leaned against the door frame.

"Fighting Talisman, it's all fighting Talisman. Attacking, healing, whatever you want above."

He counted with his fingers.

"In the past, tasks were divided into levels, and you could earn contributions by simply doing Basic Talisman. It's different now. The front was fierce, but the top only collected combat symbols."

"Is it easy to save money by contributing?"

Talisman Master Wei twitched the corner of his mouth.

"It depends on what you say."

He lowered his voice.

"The requirements for the Talisman Making mission are not low. The quality of the Talisman submitted must meet the standard, and those that do not meet the standard will not be accepted. The higher the quality, the greater the contribution, but the material consumption is also large. You will know by doing the math - you have to contribute when exchanging Talisman Making materials, and you will earn a contribution by turning in the finished product, and the loss of waste products will be deducted in the middle. After calculation, the cost performance is actually not high."

He clasped his fingers.

"For example, if you cash in one hundred Green-Veined Paper and spend fifty contributions, and draw Fireball Talisman, the yield rate is even sixty to seventy percent, and you can produce sixty or seventy finished products. After handing it in, you will probably get back seventy or eighty contributions. After deducting the consumption of Spirit Ink and Cinnabar, you will actually earn twenty or thirty when you get it."

"It's better to pick up odd jobs outside."

"There's nothing we can do about it." Talisman Master Wei spread his hands. "Talisman Hall's people can only do the tasks of the Talisman Hall. Taking jobs privately from outside is another matter, but the only way to contribute is through tasks."

Li Yuan did not answer this sentence and asked another question.

"I heard that you can make overdraft contributions?"

Talisman Master Wei nodded.

"It's an overdraft, and the limit is not small."

He took his hand away from the doorframe and crossed his arms across his chest.

This is also one of the benefits of the Talisman Hall, helping Talisman masters to improve quickly."

"The contribution made through can be redeemed in materials."

He paused, stretched out a finger and pointed upward.

"But there is one thing, the overdraft contribution can only be paid back with the Talisman Making task, and if you want to change to other Talisman making methods, you have to complete the Talisman Making task to get the contribution, and the overdraft contribution cannot be counted."

The rules are clear.

Li Yuan didn't say much and nodded towards Talisman Master Wei.

"Thank you."

Talisman Master Wei waved his hand and turned around and entered his room.

Li Yuan returned to the stone house, closed the door, cleaned the tabletop, and sat cross-legged on the bed.

First, after running Spirit Guiding Art for two weeks, the spiritual power sank into the Dantian.

Then take out the last jar of Crimson Marrow Paste, pour it into a wooden basin, add water, and perform the second round of last medicinal bath.

Two hours later, the medicine was exhausted, and Li Yuan got up from the basin.

The second round of all three Body Tempering solutions is completed.

Li Yuan felt it and his physical fitness improved slightly.
