Xiuxian: My skills have entries

Chapter 5 Tokens
They are Fireball Talisman, Rejuvenation Talisman and Clean Dust Talisman.

Each talisman encapsulates a spell of a corresponding level.

The Fireball Talisman can release a fireball the size of a human head.

The Rejuvenation Talisman can stop bleeding from wounds and restore vitality.

The dust-purifying talisman can clean the dirt on the body, and the effect is outstanding.

The first two are in greatest demand, while the dust-purifying talisman is relatively rare, and is mainly purchased by female immortal cultivators.

Yang Hao decided to start by drawing the fireball talisman.

He spread the talisman paper on the table, picked up the talisman pen, dipped it in spiritual ink, took a deep breath, and began to carve the runes with concentration.

Carving runes requires one go at a time without any pause.

Moreover, there cannot be any deviation in the rune pattern.

This obviously consumes a lot of energy on the person who makes the talisman, and this is also the biggest difficulty when learning how to make talismans.

Although Yang Hao's skill panel is strong, he still needs to succeed once to form a skill.

Therefore, he did not dare to slack off at all when drawing the runes.

Fortunately, only one rune needs to be drawn for a low-grade first-level talisman.

About a quarter of an hour passed.

He just finished drawing the first talisman.

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Yang Hao put down the talisman pen and began to infuse spiritual power into the talisman.

This step is the key to judging the success or failure of drawing the talisman.

Obviously, although Yang Hao felt good, something went wrong in drawing the runes.

After the infusion of spiritual power was completed, the talisman immediately burst into flames and burned itself.

First try, failed.

Yang Hao had already expected it, so he rested for a while and then continued drawing.

……

Three days passed in a flash.

After instilling spiritual power for the 98th time, finally, the talisman did not burst into flames and just lay calmly on the table.

There is a faint light flashing in the rune pattern outlined by the spirit ink, which means that the drawing of this talisman is successful!
Seeing this scene, the listless Yang Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief. He lay down on the bed and closed his eyes to rest while calling up the skill panel to check the situation.

Name: Yang Hao

Essence: 0
skill:
1. Xiaoyunyu Technique, lv6 (perfect), 273/3200
2. Talisman making, lv0 (not yet started), 1/5000
(1) Fireball Talisman, lv0 (not yet started), 1/500
When he saw the huge experience value behind the talisman, Yang Hao was stunned.

Although I expected that making the talisman would be more difficult than the Xiaoyunyu Technique, I didn't expect it to be so much more difficult.

The experience points required to get started are more than the experience points required to reach the extraordinary saint level in Xiaoyunyu Technique, which is really scary.

However, a sub-skill of the Fireball Talisman is also generated under the Talisman Making, which requires much less experience points.

But even so, it's a huge number for him.

Fortunately, after forming skills, experience points can be increased regardless of success or failure. Otherwise, it would be too difficult to get back the money with a success rate of almost 1%.

After experiencing it himself, Yang Hao also deeply understood the difficulty of making talismans.

No wonder so many people just try it, it’s too difficult.

Fortunately, he has a skill panel.

……

A week later.

Waimenfang City.

Because he could not afford the cost of setting up the stall, Yang Hao could only sell the seven fireball talismans he drew to Zhenbaoxuan for the price of two spiritual stones.

Of course he was a little unhappy that he was charged a fee for nothing.

But there's nothing wrong with being unhappy. Who makes him a poor man now?

During the transaction, the clerk of Zhenbaoxuan also wanted to win over him and make him a full-time talisman maker.

Materials for making talismans are provided free of charge. There is no strict requirement on the quantity of finished talismans in the first three months, but half of the income from making talismans will be given to Zhenbaoxuan for a period of three years.

It sounds attractive, but Yang Hao doesn't like to be restrained by nature, and his skill panel is powerful.

The benefits brought by upgrading the talisman-making skills are far greater than the resources spent by Zhenbaoxuan.

Yang Hao's vision was not that short-sighted and he could only see immediate benefits, so he decisively rejected the invitation.

Now it's the beginning of the month again, and with the previous monthly salary, he has six more spirit stones in his hand.

In order to continue to gain experience in making talismans, he decisively purchased another [-] talisman-making materials.

With the support of the skill panel, although the Fireball Talisman skill has not yet been upgraded, his success rate has gradually begun to increase. It has now reached 4%, and he is not far away from making money back.

……

"Brothers in front, please stay!"

On the way back to the cave, Yang Hao was simulating the drawing of the fireball talisman in his mind, when a shout suddenly came from behind, startling him.

He subconsciously looked back and saw a figure also wearing a black robe to hide his appearance, running towards him.

"Who are you?"

Seeing this, although this was within the sect, no one should be stupid enough to attack him openly, but Yang Hao was still secretly vigilant. While asking, he was ready to release his only attack skill, the lv6 Xiaoyunyu Technique.

"Sorry to stop you suddenly." The man stopped suddenly in front of him, and after showing that he meant no harm, he explained, "Let me introduce myself first."

"My name is Kong Guang. I entered the outer sect six years ago. My current cultivation level is at the sixth level of Qi Refining."

"So? What do you want from me?"

"Hey, that's it. Just now I happened to bump into you selling fireball charms at Zhenbaoxuan, so I took the liberty to follow you."

"You want to buy a fireball talisman?" Yang Hao raised his eyebrows, somewhat confused about what this guy meant, "I'm sorry, all the fireball talismans in my hand have been sold to Zhenbaoxuan. If you want to buy it, go there and buy it. That’s fine, you don’t have to look for me, right?”

"Hey, of course I know this. It's just because I don't want Zhenbaoxuan to make this money that I approached you, brother."

Kong Guang sighed and began to explain the reason to him.

It turned out that Kong Guang and several of his friends were not very talented. After entering the outer sect six years ago, they formed a small team with each other and jointly performed some difficult tasks to quickly earn spiritual stones and other resources.

Four years ago, they accidentally found a large area of ​​natural three-flowered grass growing land during a mission.

Three-flowered grass is the main raw material for talisman paper. From then on, they began to produce talisman paper in large quantities and then sold them to talisman makers in the market.

A first-level low-grade talisman is exchanged for a hundred talisman papers. Both the talisman makers and their raw material suppliers are very satisfied with this.

It was not until later that Zhenbaoxuan changed owners.

His behavior became cunning and unscrupulous.

First, he used the attractive conditions of providing free Talisman-making materials to win over the Talisman Makers. After tying most of the Talisman Makers to himself, he changed his original behavior.

He began to use various despicable methods on the remaining wild Talisman Makers, constantly forcing them to either join Zhenbao Xuan or directly change careers.

Anyway, I just don’t want to go against Zhenbaoxuan.

It's not that no one reported it to the sect, but unfortunately, the new owner of Zhenbaoxuan had some connections above, and they acted cautiously, leaving no basis for criticism.

In the end it was over.

There are only the Talisman Makers from Zhenbaoxuan and a few Talisman Makers with strong backgrounds left in the city.

From then on, the outer disciples who wanted to buy talismans could basically only buy them at Zhenbaoxuan. In addition, although the price of talismans sold by Zhenbaoxuan had increased a bit, they would pay ten for every fake one, so the outer disciples had no objection.

Then, Zhenbaoxuan, which basically monopolized the market, began to attack their raw material suppliers.

Either sell the talisman paper and other raw materials to Zhenbaoxuan cheaply, or they will rot in their hands.

At the same time, they cannot directly exchange raw materials for talismans. They must first exchange them for spiritual stones and then purchase talismans.

Over and over again, all the profits were eaten up by Zhenbaoxuan.

As a result, working in this industry is no longer as comfortable as before. Many raw material suppliers directly package and sell their production sites to Zhenbaoxuan.

In the end, only Kong Guang and his team were left to continue working.

Firstly, they have enough three-flowered grass in their hands, and they can guarantee a certain profit in large quantities; secondly, they are very dissatisfied with Zhenbaoxuan's overbearing and rogue behavior, and do not want it to completely monopolize the market; thirdly, they are very dissatisfied with Zhenbaoxuan's domineering and rogue behavior. Since then, they have been very cautious in their actions and have not allowed Zhenbaoxuan to touch the location of the production site.

　I've been here for a while.
