"Have some tea first, young brother, and let this old man explain the reasons to you in detail!"
The white-haired old man looked at He Pingsheng with a kindly expression and said, "As Immortals advance in cultivation, Immortal Talismans become increasingly useless compared to things like immortal pills, formations, and Immortal Artifacts!"
"Take immortal pills, for example. Many of them have irreplaceable uses even if they are low grade!"
"The same goes for Immortal Artifacts and Immortal Formations!"
