Chapter 1305 Wooden Shield Talisman
Back at his dojo, Xu Changshou checked his identity token, which still had 600 merit points.
These 600 merit points represent his salary over the past three thousand years.
Twenty points every hundred years, six hundred points every three thousand years.
Six hundred merit points can be exchanged for sixty Great Spirit Pills, enough for Xu Changshou to cultivate for six hundred years.
Once his cultivation reaches his level, six hundred years is nothing but a blink of an eye. He's running out of merit points, so he has to find a way to earn more.
The only solution Xu Changshou could think of was selling talismans. He currently had over 1,600 blank seventh-grade spirit talismans. If seventh-grade sword qi talismans were allowed to be sold, he could convert them into cash by drawing them as sword qi talismans.
Unfortunately, his superiors forbade him from selling seventh-grade sword energy talismans.
Then we'll have to draw other symbols.
For the previous three thousand years, Xu Changshou not only cultivated his cultivation and magic, but also did not neglect his studies on spirit talismans.
Over the years, he has basically mastered the eighth-grade spirit talismans he knew, and the seventh-grade spirit talismans are a piece of cake for him.
Xu Changshou could use any kind of talisman—flying talisman, wind spirit talisman, sword qi talisman, fire attack talisman, thunderstorm talisman, soul-devouring talisman, illusion-breaking talisman, earth qi talisman—with ease.
The problem is that most talismans require the hide of a demon cultivator at the Heavenly Demon God realm, and the hide of a demon cultivator at this realm is not easy to obtain.
As for those talismans without attributes, such as the Soul Devouring Talisman and the Illusion-Breaking Talisman, talismans made from 100,000-year-old locust trees can be drawn, but these talismans are too unpopular, and no one wants them even if they are drawn.
"How to do?"
Xu Changshou fell into thought: was there any kind of talisman that could be drawn using talismans made from 100,000-year-old locust trees and still sell well?
There are undoubtedly only three types of talismans that sell best.
Attack, defense, speed.
Of the talismans related to these three, the sword aura talisman can be drawn but is not allowed to be sold.
In terms of speed, it requires the skin of a wind-attribute demon cultivator to draw talismans; talismans made by a 100,000-year-old locust tree cannot be drawn.
That leaves only defense.
Defensive talismans have more attributes.
A defensive talisman with water attributes.
A defensive talisman with a metallic element.
A defensive talisman with the wood element.
The most common type is the earth-attribute defensive talisman.
Water, earth, and metal are all unsuitable for talisman paintings made from 100,000-year-old locust trees.
That leaves only wood-attribute defensive talismans. The 100,000-year-old locust tree is also wood-attribute, so if you draw a wood-attribute talisman made from it, the attributes will match.
Do you have any defensive talismans with the wood attribute?
Have!
Xu Changshou's eyes suddenly lit up. Among the inherited talismans in the Jade Talisman Space, there is a type of talisman called the Wooden Shield Talisman. This talisman has extremely strong defense, no less than the Earth Gang Talisman, Earth Shield Talisman, and other earth-attribute defensive talismans.
Xu Changshou has done more research on earth-attribute defensive talismans, but he has never drawn a wooden shield talisman.
Previously, the highest level of wooden shield talismans Xu Changshou possessed was a fourth-grade wooden shield talisman.
Next, all he needs to do is deduce the seventh-grade wooden shield talisman.
With this idea in mind, Xu Changshou had something to do next.
Of course, we can't just focus on deducing the talismans; we need to deduce them while cultivating.
Go exchange some Greater Spirit Pills first.
Xu Changshou took to the air and flew towards Youbi Peak.
Soon, they arrived at the Void Spirit Hall on Right Assistant Peak.
Upon entering the Void Spirit Hall, several people were exchanging Void Spirit Pills. These cultivators exchanging Void Spirit Pills were all Void Refinement cultivators.
“Look, it is the Venerable Longevity.”
"Disciple pays respects to Martial Uncle Changshou!"
"Greetings, Uncle-Master Xu!"
Several cultivators at the Void Refinement stage bowed respectfully to Xu Changshou, each more deferential than the last.
The cultivation world is an extremely transparent world of information. Don't be fooled by the fact that Xu Changshou has just been granted the title of Venerable and just defeated Venerable Wanyan to ascend to the Great Ascension Golden List.
But news about him, as well as his portrait, had already spread throughout the entire Donghua Immortal Sect. Now, no matter where Xu Changshou goes, people can recognize him.
"Uncle-Master Xu, please go first!"
The cultivators queuing ahead stopped exchanging for the Void Spirit Pills and bowed to Xu Changshou, indicating that he should exchange them first.
"Ok!"
Xu Changshou nodded slightly, and without being polite, walked over directly.
"This old man pays his respects to the Venerable Longevity!"
Upon seeing Xu Changshou approach, the elderly man surnamed Xu, the person in charge of the Xuling Palace, hurriedly bowed and clasped his hands in greeting.
At this moment, the way he looked at Xu Changshou was filled with awe.
Although the old man surnamed Xu was also a cultivator in the mid-stage of the Mahayana realm, he had not been granted the title of Venerable, nor had he been listed on the Mahayana Golden Ranking, so his status was naturally not as high as that of Xu Changshou.
"Senior Brother Xu, you're too kind," Xu Changshou said with a smile, clasping his hands in a fist salute.
The elderly man surnamed Xu respectfully asked, "May I ask, Venerable Longevity, are you here to exchange for a Great Spirit Pill?"
"Yes!"
Xu Changshou took out his identity token, tossed it to the old man surnamed Xu, and said, "Exchange all of them for Great Spirit Pills for me."
"You have a total of 600 merit points, which can be exchanged for 60 Great Spirit Pills. Are you sure you want to exchange them all?"
Yes, exchange them all.
"Ok!"
After the exchange was completed, the old man surnamed Xu respectfully handed the Great Spirit Pill to Xu Changshou.
“Venerable Longevity, please examine this.”
"The pills are fine. Farewell!"
"Venerable Longevity, please wait!"
"Take care, Uncle Xu..."
After leaving the Void Spirit Palace and returning to his own dojo, Xu Changshou began his seclusion.
While refining the Great Spirit Pill, they also deduced the wooden shield talisman.
Time passed, and six hundred years went by in the blink of an eye.
Xu Changshou refined all sixty Great Spirit Pills. At the same time, the Wooden Shield Talisman was successfully deduced to the eighth rank, not the seventh.
After deducing the wooden shield talisman, Xu Changshou casually drew about ten copies, not daring to draw more, fearing that if the authorities didn't allow him to sell the wooden shield talismans, drawing too many would be a waste.
After drawing the talisman, Xu Changshou flew towards the Thunder God Temple with it.
In the void, Xu Changshou took out his identity token and glanced at it. The token showed 120 merit points.
Soon, Xu Changshou arrived at the entrance of the Thunder God Temple.
Xu Changshou's purpose in coming to the Thunder God Temple this time was to find Zhu Miaoshan and ask her to check his talismans and whether they were allowed to be sold in the Donghua Immortal Sect.
"Is Uncle Zhu here? Your disciple Xu Changshou requests an audience." Xu Changshou bowed respectfully to the door.
"Hehe, Xu lad is here."
A voice came from inside, but it wasn't Zhu Miaoshan's voice; it was Hu Ruilong's.
Then, Zhu Miaoshan's voice rang out: "Come in."
Upon entering Zhu Miaoshan's main hall, Xu Changshou discovered that not only Hu Ruilong was there, but Gao Jianmin and Situ Xianchang were also present.
At this moment, Hu Ruilong and Zhu Miaoshan were playing chess, while Gao Jianmin and Situ Xianchang watched from the sidelines.
"Wait a mininute!"
Upon seeing Xu Changshou enter, Zhu Miaoshan spoke, gesturing for him to wait.
Xu Changshou nodded and watched the game from the side.
Soon, the game ended, and Zhu Miaoshan unexpectedly lost to Hu Ruilong.
"I'm done playing. Junior Brother Xu's chess skills are superb. I concede defeat."
Zhu Miaoshan put away the chessboard, looked at Xu Changshou, and asked, "Young Xu, what business do you have with me?"
Xu Changshou smiled and said, "This disciple has recently developed a new talisman and would like to ask Uncle Zhu to take a look."
"Oh?"
"What kind of talisman?"
"take it out!"
Zhu Miaoshan and the others became interested.
