This morning, Li Yuan finished painting and stacked a batch of Fireball Talisman and Heart-Locking Talisman, put Talisman Brush down and left the yard.
People were coming and going on the main street of Yunyang Marketplace, which was no different from the previous few days. Blue Stone The pavement was shiny with the footsteps of people coming and going, and the signboards of the shops on both sides stood side by side in the sunshine.
Li Yuan did not go straight to the Rogue Cultivator booth area, but walked slowly along the main street, holding nothing in his hands, walking slowly, and looking like he was wandering around.
Yunyang Marketplace has a much richer variety of items than Qinghe Market, and the grade is also a bit higher. Although most of the items in serious stores are intangible through spiritual barriers, you can occasionally come across some unexpected items at Rogue Cultivator stalls and street vendors.
Walking to the north of the middle section of the main street, five or six people gathered around a tea stall on the roadside.
Li Yuan didn't deliberately move closer, but slowed down a bit and walked past the tea stall.
Several Rogue Cultivator were talking, their voices not too low.
"...Yunyang Marketplace has become more and more strict recently, have you noticed?"
A middle-aged man with a beard, Rogue Cultivator, held a tea bowl and lowered his throat to the people next to him, but the sound still came out.
"Can you be less strict?" Rogue Cultivator, a tall and thin man next to him, answered.
"Last month Yuanyang Sect wiped out a group of the Demon Sect remnants in the south. They killed seven and escaped with three. Those three have not been caught yet. It is said that they ran north."
The bearded Rogue Cultivator hissed. "Demon Sect remnants? Weren't they destroyed a hundred years ago?"
"The sect has been destroyed, but not all the people." The tall and thin Rogue Cultivator put the tea bowl on the table.
"In that battle that year, several major sects joined forces to capture General Altar of the Demon Sect. The sect leader and several Elder were killed on the spot. However, many of his disciples fled, scattered to various places, and remained anonymous. Over the years, a few appeared from time to time. If they were discovered, they would be suppressed. If they were not discovered, they would remain lurking."
Another slightly older Rogue Cultivator interjected.
"It's not just the remnants of the Demon Sect. Don't you think that all the sects are tightening their territory recently? Yuanyang Sect has stepped up patrols in Fang City, and I heard that even more manpower has been dispatched to several peripheral strongholds. Qingyun Sect to the south is also moving, directly annexing the territory of several vassals Lineage."
The bearded Rogue Cultivator smashed his mouth. "Then Yuanyang will annex Wang Family Li Family Ji Family."
"It's hard to say, but these three companies have been sending people to the Yuanyang Sect many years ago, especially Li Family."
"I heard that Li Family is also gathering the materials for Foundation Establishment Pill recently and asking Alchemist He to refine Foundation Establishment Pill. There seems to be a genius in the family who has worshiped Yuanyang Sect. Will it be used by him?"
"If you accept Yuanyang Sect, it has nothing to do with Lineage. It must be for your own family."
Several Rogue Cultivator were talking about it, and then the topic turned to other places.
Li Yuan paused slightly, did not look back, and just wrote down the information.
Continue walking forward and turn into the Rogue Cultivator stall area.
In the open space surrounded by stone fences, thirty or forty stalls were crowded, the layout was similar to the previous few days.
Li Yuan walked slowly along the stall area, occasionally touching items on the roadside stalls with his fingers. He scanned a dozen stalls and found nothing that triggered Panel.
Walking to the east of the center, there is a stall selling groceries with various scattered things. A few pieces of ore, two bottles of medicinal solution, a cloth bag, a few rough-made Law Artifact accessories, and a palm-sized copper plate resting in the corner.
The style of the copper plate is somewhat similar to Spirit Detection Disk, but it is much thinner than Spirit Detection Disk. A circle of fine Spirit Pattern is engraved on the edge, and a dark cyan Small Pearl seed is embedded in the center of the plate.
Li Yuan reached out and picked up the copper plate.
The moment the fingertips touched the disk, Panel popped out.
[Equipable item detected]
[Item Affix level: white]
[Note: Items that do not belong to you, cannot be equipped, and detailed information cannot be viewed]
Li Yuan's fingers paused on the disk for a moment longer.
He turned the copper plate over and looked at the back. The workmanship was rougher than the front. The scratches on Spirit Pattern were of varying depths, but the overall structure was intact.
"What is this?" Li Yuan raised the copper plate in his hand towards the stall owner.
The stall owner was a thin man in his forties. He was eating a piece of cake with his head tilted. He raised his head and glanced at the words.
"Qi-Sensing Disk. After infusing spiritual power, it can sense the surrounding breath fluctuations. The range is smaller than the common system Spirit Detection Disk on the market, but the accuracy is higher."
He put the cake down and patted the crumbs on his hands.
Li Yuan asked.
"How much?"
"Twelve pieces Spirit Stone."
"Ten dollars."
The stall owner tilted his mouth and hesitated for a moment.
"Okay."
Li Yuan counted ten pieces of Spirit Stone and put them on the cloth, and put Qi-Sensing Disk into the storage bag.
Keep going.
When we walked to the southern edge of the stall area, a stall selling jewelry and sundries caught Li Yuan's attention.
The stall owner is a young Rogue Cultivator in his early twenties. There are seven or eight things on the cloth in front of him, most of which are pendants, bracelets and jade pendants of different shapes. It looks more like a stall selling decorations in a mortal market, and is different from the Law Artifact stalls common among monks.
Li Yuan squatted down and passed his fingers from left to right.
Li Yuan squatted down and passed his fingers from left to right.
When I touched a bracelet, Panel popped out.
[Equipable item detected]
[Item Affix level: gray]

gray.
Li Yuan turned over the bracelet. It has a dark blue metal texture and simple workmanship.
"How to sell this?"
The young stall owner raised his head and glanced at the bracelet in Li Yuan's hand.
"Um, three pieces of Spirit Stone. I used to wear a Rogue Cultivator, which was said to refresh my mind and make me feel better when I practice. I wore it for a few days after I received it, and it did have some effect, but it was not obvious."
Li Yuan did not bargain. Spirit Stone put it down and put the bracelet into the storage bag.
Li Yuan walked around the stall area again and didn't encounter any other responsive items.
Go back to the yard and close the door.
The table in the main room is still covered with several pictures of Herb Talisman Paper that I drew this morning, and Spirit Ink Bottle is placed in the corner. Li Yuan puts Talisman Paper aside to free up the table.
First take out Qi-Sensing Disk.
The dark cyan Small Pearl is slightly glowing in the center of the disk, and the Spirit Pattern on the edge is vaguely visible under the light.
Put your fingertips on the plate.

[Affix preview: Aura Imprinting (white)--Enhance the range and accuracy of breath perception. Can actively remember the characteristics of the breath you have been exposed to, and automatically recognize the same breath again when you encounter it]
[Preview of permanent conditions: Reduce one's own aura to that of a mortal (0/1)]

White Trait. Aura Imprinting.
Two-fold effect. First, it enhances the range and accuracy of breath perception. Second, it can remember the breath it has been exposed to and automatically recognize the same breath next time.
The condition for permanentization is to reduce one's aura to that of a mortal.
Li Yuan places Qi-Sensing Disk on the table.
Aura Concealment and Permanent Affix can already reduce the breath by 30%, from Qi Refining Seventh Layer to the level of Fifth or Sixth Layer of Qi Refinement.
But there is no difference between ordinary people, which means that the breath must be completely converged to nothing, without a trace of Spiritual Qi fluctuations.
Thirty percent suppression is far from enough.
Li Yuan didn't think much about it and put Qi-Sensing Disk back into the storage bag.
The conditions are there, if you can't do it now, just leave it alone.
Then take out the bracelet.
The dark cyan metal bracelet felt slightly cold in the palm of my hand.
Put your fingertips on it.
[Equipable item detected: Spirit-Awakening Bracelet (complete)]
[Affix preview: Comprehension Speed Boost (grey)--Law Technique Entry Level's speed increased by 50%]
[Preview of permanent conditions: Cultivation reaches Mid Qi Refinement(0/1)]
[The current Equipment Slot is full (5/5), do you want to replace the current equipment?]
Gray Trait. Comprehension Speed Boost.
Law Technique Entry Level The speed is increased by 50%.
The permanent condition is that the cultivation level reaches Mid Qi Refinement.
Li Yuan is currently Qi Refining Seventh Layer, which has long passed Mid Qi Refinement.
Once equipped, it becomes permanent immediately.
Li Yuan turned the bracelet around in his hand.
The speed of Law Technique Entry Level is increased by 50%.
At his current level, most First-Order Law Technique can be Entry Level after just two readings, and ordinary Entry Level-level Law Technique can take the psychic path in half a day.
After Talisman Crafting Art Mastery, the accuracy of spiritual power control has reached a very high level. In addition, the soul is continuously strengthened by Soul-Illuminating Mirror and Spirit-Refining Talisman. The speed of understanding and getting started with the new Law Technique is already very fast.
If it's 50% faster, the difference isn't that big.
Equipment Slot All five positions are full.
To install Spirit-Awakening Bracelet, you have to remove one.
Now Law Technique Entry Level speed is not urgent for his current needs. He does not lack Law Technique Entry Level's ability. What he lacks is finding the right Law Technique and enough training time.
It is not cost-effective to remove any existing equipment for a Gray Trait that is currently useless.
Li Yuan stows Spirit-Awakening Bracelet deep into the storage bag.
In the future, Equipment Slot will be made permanent after it is freed.
He spread the table again and picked up Talisman Brush.
Spirit-Refining Talisman still needs to continue practicing. The accumulation at the Proficiency stage is far from over, and there is still a long way to go before Mastery.
