Heavenly Spiritual Root!
At this point, Chen Mobai fell into silent contemplation.
He thought of the unused Wood Spiritual Talisman he had stowed away, an idea sparked in his mind, but immediately he mocked himself for his fanciful thinking.
“Friend Qi, I wonder when this battle for the island will end. Although I have already reached Qi Cultivation seventh layer, my combative methods are still lacking. Do you have any spare Crimson Flame Sword Talismans to sell me?” After a bit of conversation, Chen Mobai once again returned to their initial topic.
The Crimson Flame Sword Talisman was powerful, Qi Rui had used one in the battle just now, slaying a Black Plague Bird.
Moreover, it had directly shattered the Black Feather Shield.
In comparison to Chen Mobai, who had to exhaust all means, including his cultivation techniques and the assistance of the Cold Ice Technique, Qi Rui seemed at ease.
“You’ve asked the right person. In our sect, besides completing tasks, I rely on making talismans to earn Spirit Stones.”
Upon hearing this, Qi Rui’s eyes brightened, and he immediately pulled out three Crimson Flame Sword Talismans from his storage bag.
“One talisman costs 8 Spirit Stones within our sect, but it’s sold for 10 Spirit Stones in the Fang Market shops. I’ll give you the internal price. How many do you want?”
“I can only afford one.”
Chen Mobai rummaged through his bag and reluctantly took out eight Spirit Stones.
Qi Rui accepted them with a laugh, handed him one Crimson Flame Sword Talisman, and carefully explained the essentials and techniques of using it.
“I heard there are also dual-sword and triple-sword talismans, what are their prices?”
After buying one, Chen Mobai asked about what truly concerned him. Upon hearing this, Qi Rui actually began earnestly advising him.
“A single-sword talisman costs 8 Spirit Stones, but a dual-sword talisman costs 20, and a triple-sword talisman is as high as 80 Spirit Stones. It’s completely not worth for us Qi Practitioners to invest that much.”
“A dual-sword talisman basically seals two Crimson Flame Sword Lights. The complexity and difficulty of its creation are several times greater than a single-sword talisman. Generally, even if we have the ability, we wouldn’t create dual-sword talismans. They aren’t easy to sell, and the possibility of failure is high. It’s easy for the investment in a talisman to go down the drain.” “Moreover, a dual-sword talisman’s power hasn’t fundamentally changed. It just seals an additional sword light. Using two single-sword talismans is the same as using a dual-sword talisman, only it’s cheaper.”
“As for the triple-sword talisman, since it can form a small sword array, it’s worth it if you’re able to create it. But, a triple-sword talisman, even though it is classified as Rank-1 premium grade, actually requires a Rank-2 Talisman Maker to truly craft it. I don’t have the capability to do that.”
After hearing Qi Rui’s explanation, Chen Mobai finally understood why only single-sword talismans were sold in the market.
Dual-sword talismans are simply not cost-effective.
And triple-sword talismans require too high of a crafting requirement. Even though they’re classified as Rank-1 premium grade, they will be displayed on Rank-2 counters, usually only being purchased by Foundation Establishment cultivators.
“That’s a pity, I actually wanted to buy a triple-sword talisman to study.”
Chen Mobai feigned regret.
“Oh, are you also a Talisman Maker, Friend Chen?”
“No wonder you always have so many talismans.”
Qi Rui, Shi Pengyi, and Luo Lin all had realization dawn on them, but Chen Mobai hastily waved his hands humbly, indicating he was still at the beginner stage.
“Isn’t it because I want to join the Divine Wood Sect? I started learning how to make talismans in advance, to avoid getting cut from the entrance tests next year.”
“Hahaha, don’t worry, Friend Chen. Given your age and realm, as long as you can master one of the five Life Talismans, any of the senior uncles will take you into the sect.”
Qi Rui was pleased with Chen Mobai’s expressed longing for the Divine Wood Sect. He revealed a bit of the sect’s customary practices in recruiting disciples, which benefited the other three members of the small team greatly.
“If you truly want a triple-sword talisman, Elder Brother Wang just happens to have one. It’s just a matter of whether he’s willing to part with it.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai was visibly surprised, but thinking of Wang Yuanwu’s Red Sword, which was clearly a result of practicing the Red Flame Sword Jue, he suddenly understood.
“Isn’t the Divine Wood Sect’s unique cultivation technique the ‘Longevity Sutra’? Why do Friend Qi, Manager Wang, and Elder Qi all practice the Fire Attribute cultivation technique?”
About this, Chen Mobai was a bit confused.
Shouldn’t disciples of the Divine Wood Sect be practicing Wood Attribute cultivation techniques?
“Although our Divine Wood Sect originated from the Wood Vein of the Five Elements Sect, the five veins have shared their ancient techniques with each other for over a thousand years. The fundamental techniques of the five veins have all been excerpted.”
“Precisely because of this, our Divine Wood Sect and Golden Cliff dared to break away from the Five Elements Sect. Our two sects’ inheritance all comes from the same Book Pavilion, and we possess techniques of all Five Elements.”
“However, it is said that the supreme divine skill of the Five Elements Sect, the ‘Primordial Dao Fruit’, has always been kept within the Earth Vein.”
“But the ‘Primordial Dao Fruit’ can only be perceived by those who have reached Gold Core Perfection and possess a Heavenly Spiritual Root. So, whether our Divine Wood Sect and Golden Cliff possess this technique doesn’t really matter.”
“Moreover, in my opinion, the simplified version of ‘Primordial Dao Fruit’, the ‘Dual Phase Technique’, is more suitable for us regular cultivators. It provides us with a glimpse of a chance to Core Formation.”
Qi Rui’s words left Chen Mobai a bit confused.
Many terms were foreign to him.
What is the ‘Primordial Dao Fruit’?
What is the ‘Dual Phase Technique’?
In contrast, Shi Pengyi and Luo Lin, a pair of senior brother and sister on the side, wore expressions of awe, as if they had long heard of those famous techniques.
Chen Mobai couldn’t help but play the part of a cultivator from the countryside and humbly sought advice.
“This ‘Primordial Dao Fruit’ is the number one divine skill in the Eastern Wilderness. Our forebear, the Old Ancestor Hun Yuan, used this divine skill to sweep over the Eastern Wilderness, and even made a big name in the Central State, earning the title of ‘Number One Nascent Soul of the Eastern Bound’. Unfortunately, since the Old Ancestor Hun Yuan’s demise, no one else has mastered this divine skill.”
“The ‘Dual Phase Technique’ is a simplified version of ‘Primordial Dao Fruit’, which requires the cultivation of two attribute techniques among the Five Elements.”
“For instance, disciples of our Divine Wood Sect, generally choose the Wood Attribute ‘Longevity Sutra’ and Fire Attribute ‘Red Flame Sword Jue’. The initial stages might be slow, but when you reach Foundation Establishment Perfection, the Spiritual Power cultivated by the Red Flame Sword Jue will utilize the Spiritual Power from the Longevity Sutra as nourishment, increasing the chances of Core Formation by thirty percent.”
“It is said that the ‘Primordial Dao Fruit’ uses the ‘Dual Phase Technique’ to successively practice the techniques of the Five Elements, finally unifying the Five Elements into one ‘Primordial True Qi’, thereby overcoming the Five Element techniques..”
