In the following days, Li Yuan's rhythm stabilized.
Teach Han Qing for one to two hours in the morning, Talisman Making in the afternoon, Alchemy in the evening, and practice in the evening.
Han Qing's progress is much faster than at the beginning.
The basic skills of holding the pen and transmitting spiritual power have been corrected, and Fire-Gathering Pattern can draw completely, although the success rate is not high.
While Li Yuan taught Han Qing, his own Talisman Making did not fall behind either.
The success rate of Restriction-Breaking Talisman has increased from 70% to more than 80%. The spiritual power compression accuracy at the end of Piercing Pattern is getting higher and higher, and the diameter of the apex of the cone can be stably controlled within the thickness of a hair.
The progress of Detection Talisman is also advancing at the same time. The combination of Sensing Pattern and Expansion Pattern has no technical difficulty for Major Accomplishment level Talisman Making divisions, it mainly depends on the accumulation of Proficiency degree.
This afternoon, Li Yuan finished drawing Restriction-Breaking Talisman and put it away.
A dark silver luster appeared on the surface of the rune, which was darker and sharper than the previous finished product.
Panel jumped a little.
[Talisman: Restriction-Breaking Talisman-Proficiency(0/400)]
Then I drew a few more pictures of Detection Talisman.
[Talisman: Detection Talisman-Proficiency(0/400)]
Two kinds of Talisman arrived at Proficiency at the same time.
When practicing at night, the exercise of Soul Condensation Art is interspersed with the weekly cycle of Spirit Guiding Art.
Entry Level After practicing for so long, every cycle of compression and stretching is more comfortable than the last one.
The speed of condensation of the power of the soul continues to increase, and the ultimate depth of compression is also explored bit by bit.
In the middle of the night, after Li Yuan completed a set of Soul Condensation Art cycles, I felt a change.
It's not that one cycle is particularly different, but the overall feel has changed.
The process of compressing the power of the soul no longer requires deliberate concentration.
The consciousness only needs a gentle push, and the power of the soul will gather, compress, and stretch along the path that has been practiced countless times.
As natural as breathing.
[Cultivation Method: Soul Condensation Art-Proficiency(0/400)]
Proficiency.
After Soul Condensation Art Proficiency, the strengthening speed of the soul is much faster than that of Entry Level.
Although the increase in soul density in each cycle is still small, the cumulative efficiency is higher.
Coupled with the superposition of Soul-Illuminating Mirror, Alchemy Comprehension and Soul Tempering and Condensation triple Permanent Affix, the overall strength of the soul has reached a new level.
The next morning, Li Yuan took a batch of finished products Talisman to Ziyuan Trading Firm for delivery.
Shopkeeper Han was flipping through the ledger behind the counter. When he saw Li Yuan coming in, he closed the ledger.
Li Yuan placed Talisman on the counter.
Shopkeeper Han stretched out his hand and took out two pieces from the middle, turned it to the front and looked at Talisman Pattern, and pressed his finger on the surface of the charm.
Then I drew two more and looked at them the same way.
His movements were slower than usual, as if he was looking carefully.
"Fellow Daoist Li, your recent Talisman is in good condition again." Shopkeeper Han put Talisman back in the stack, and looked up from Talisman to look at Li Yuan.
"This condition is absolutely top-notch among the entire Yunyang Marketplace."
Li Yuan nodded without explaining the reason. After Spirit-Essence Refining became permanent, the quality of Talisman Making improved by 20%, and the effect was indeed obvious.
Shopkeeper Han stacked Talisman, forget it and pushed Spirit Stone over.
"One more thing." Shopkeeper Han pulled out a cloth bag from under the counter and placed it on the counter.
"The material you asked me to look out for before. Emerald Heart Lotus found one."
Li Yuan's eyes fell on the cloth bag.
Shopkeeper Han Open the cloth bag.
Inside is a Spirit Herb, the size of a palm, with thick rhizomes, emerald green leaves, and a Flower Bud that has not fully bloomed in the middle.
The outer layer of Flower Bud is dark green sepals, with a hint of light golden luster showing through the gaps.
Emerald Heart Lotus.
The quality is not top-notch, but the spiritual power fluctuations are pure and the medicinal effect should be above the normal level.
"Where did it come from?"
"An old customer brought it from the Secret Realm."
Shopkeeper Han pushed the cloth bag in front of Li Yuan.
"He is in a hurry to use Spirit Stone, and the price is not high. Nine hundred Spirit Stone, I charge an additional thirty Spirit Stone."
Nine hundred and three.
Nearly 30% lower than the market price.
Although the quality is not the best, buying one Emerald Heart Lotus for 900 Spirit Stone is indeed a good deal.
"I want it."
Li Yuan Talisman Making has saved a lot of money these days Spirit Stone, but Jiubaisan Spirit Stone still emptied most of his fortune.
Count out the code Spirit Stone on the counter. Shopkeeper Han puts Spirit Stone into the drawer under the counter, and pushes Emerald Heart Lotus together with the cloth bag to Li Yuan.
Li Yuan carefully put Emerald Heart Lotus deep into the storage bag and put it together with Spirit Origin Fruit.
There are already two flavors of the four main ingredients. Nine-Turn Lingzhi and Purple Mansion Profound Liquid are still missing.
"If you have news about the other two, please tell me."
"Don't worry." Shopkeeper Han nodded, then remembered something and spoke again.
"By the way, Fellow Daoist Li. Recently, there have been a lot of customers coming to the shop to order Talisman Making, and a few of them asked for your Talisman. If you are willing, I can help you take the customized order."
"Okay." Li Yuan nodded.
"Okay." Shopkeeper Han smiled and patted the counter. "I'll let you know when I have an order."
Li Yuan Exit Ziyuan Trading Firm and walk back along the main street.
When we reached the entrance of the side alley, a person walked towards us.
A monk in his thirties, wearing a clean gray cloth blouse, with an ordinary face and cultivation level Qi Refining Fifth Layer.
Li Yuan didn't know this person, but he obviously knew the direction of Li Yuan's residence and had been walking back and forth near the side alley, as if he was waiting for someone.
After seeing Li Yuan, the man walked over quickly.
"Fellow Daoist Li?"
"Yes."
"Senior He asked me to come to you."
The man took out a small wooden sign from his arms and flashed it. On it was engraved the runes of Alchemist He, which prohibits the passage of the yard. "Senior He, please come over."
Li Yuan looked at the wooden sign and nodded.
Follow the man to the west along the main street and turn into the street where the Alchemist He courtyard is located.
The courtyard door is ajar, and the forbidden gap has been opened.
Li Yuan pushed the door open and walked in. The monk on duty did not follow him and turned back to the door.
The yard is the same as before. There are stone tables and benches, wooden boxes in the corners, and the aroma of medicine wafting from the door of the main house.
Alchemist He is sitting behind the stone table, holding a white porcelain teacup in his hand, drinking tea.
"Sit."
Li Yuan sat down on the stone bench.
Alchemist He placed the teacup on the table and looked at Li Yuan.
"Let me tell you something, have you heard about the Ji Family's situation?"
"I've heard of some. One of the three Foundation Establishment Lineage subordinate to the Yuanyang Sect, who is good at Artifact Refining Dao. There is only one ancestor left, and his life span is about to end."
Alchemist He nodded.
"Absolutely. Ji Family's current situation is very bad. It's hard to say how long the ancestor can last, but it will definitely not be too long."
"The family urgently needs a new Foundation Establishment Realm monk to take over, otherwise Ji Family will not be able to maintain Foundation Establishment Lineage's status once the ancestor leaves."
He lightly drew a line on the table with his fingertips.
"The problem is, Ji Family has had very bad luck these years. I used a total of three Foundation Establishment pills before, and tried Foundation Establishment three times, but all failed. Of the three most promising juniors, two died and one was useless."
He lifted his fingers from the table.
"Now Ji Family is out of business. So they can only think of ways to continue working on Foundation Establishment pills and let existing people try again."
Alchemist He picked up the teacup, took a sip, and put it down.
"You said before that you wanted to ask me to refine Origin Breaking Pill. If you gather all the materials, I will help you refine it. The probability of getting two in one furnace is not low."
He looked at Li Yuan.
"If two coins come out, what are you going to do with the second one?"
Li Yuan did not answer immediately.
Alchemist He continues.
"Ji Family has an urgent need for Foundation Establishment pills. If you are willing, the second pill can be sold to the Ji Family. The price and transaction method are determined by you, and I will not interfere."
He folded his hands and placed them on the table.
"I'm just mentioning it. If you don't agree, just pretend I didn't say anything about it. Ji Family won't know about your existence, and I won't reveal any information."
His tone was extremely calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
"I have been practicing elixirs for so many years,"
Li Yuan thought for a while.
If Origin Breaking Pill really comes out with two pieces, I only need one.
Keeping the second one is of no use. Selling it for Spirit Stone or other resources is the most reasonable way to deal with it.
Ji Family is in urgent need of Foundation Establishment pills, and the bid will not be low.
But the materials haven't been gathered yet, and Medicinal Pill hasn't been refined yet. It's too early to discuss how to deal with the second one.
"I'll think about it."
Alchemist He nodded and did not ask any further questions.
Li Yuan didn't leave in a hurry and asked another question.
"How much do you know about Senior He, Underground Trading Fair?"
Alchemist He's eyes paused on Li Yuan for a moment longer.
"Are you going to Underground Trading Fair?"
"Origin Breaking Pill's materials are still short of two main ingredients. It's hard to find them through normal channels. I want to try other methods."
Alchemist He didn't ask any more questions, took out a piece of Token from his sleeve, and threw it towards Li Yuan.
Li Yuan reached out to catch it.
The palm-sized bronze medal is rough in workmanship, with a simplified rune engraved on the front and smooth on the back. It is slightly heavy in hand, and there are weak spiritual energy fluctuations slowly flowing on the surface.
"With this, you can participate in three or four Underground Trading Fair."
Alchemist He Pick up the tea cup.
"There are more than one circle of Underground Trading Fair in Yunyang Marketplace, there are seven or eight large and small ones in total. This piece of Token can only fit into a few of them. It's not particularly rare, but it's easier to find than the ones on the market."
He took a sip of tea.
"But these Trading Fair are not often opened."
He tapped his fingers on the table a few times.
"The latest one will be eight days later, in a secret room underground in the east of Fangshi. The entrance is in the basement of the teahouse at the end of East Street. Just show Token to the person at the door."
"I don't know the time of the second and third games, so I have to wait for news. Token has a subpoena function, and you will receive a notification before the show starts."
Li Yuan puts Token into the storage bag.
"Thank you Senior He."
Alchemist He waved his hand, picked up the tea cup and continued drinking.
Li Yuan stood up and walked out of the yard, the restraint closed again behind him.
Walk back to the yard you rented along the original path.
Close the door and sit at the table.
Continue Talisman Making.
Spirit-Essence Refining and Permanent Affix stabilize the quality of every finished product at a very high level.
Red, light blue, and dark silver lusters floated from each Talisman Paper, stacked into neat piles one after another.
There are two medicinal materials left, so we must seize the time to continue Talisman Making Spirit Stone.
