The Lord of Void and Real
Chapter 406

Chapter 406: Chapter 402: Ma Xiuxiu's Visit Chapter 406: Chapter 402: Ma Xiuxiu's Visit Shen Luo had been troubled by this, he only had less than two hundred Immortal jades on him. It might be considered a fortune to an ordinary Grain Avoidance Cultivator, but for the Spirit Fire, it might not be enough, even though he had a few magical artifacts left, they were all for self-protection, and the Thousand-Year Spirit Milk was a life-saving spiritual medicine, all of which he couldn't possibly sell.

“Chang'an is the capital city, most of the shops here do business very legit, the Charm and Talisman Shops are no exception. When I was in the Bai family, I heard that Daoist friend Shen Luo is good at making talismans. Are you thinking of making talismans to earn Immortal jade? It's just that the Grand Annual Celebration is fast approaching, and making money from making talismans may not be very fast.” Xie Yuxin gave Shen Luo a glance and said.

“Earn as much as you can.” Shen Luo sighed lightly and said.

“As far as I know, in Chang'an City, the Hundred Talisman Hall, Jade Treasure Pavilion, and Treasure Hall all have good reputations, but each of these shops has a stable source of talisman masters supplying talismans. If the talismans of foreign masters are either not plentiful or not valuable, they may not necessarily want to buy them.” Xie Yuxin thought for a moment and added.

Shen Luo chuckled, and roughly told Xie Yuxin about the Thunderfall Talisman, Binding Talisman and other talismans he was able to draw.

“I really didn't expect that, Daoist friend Shen Luo, you can actually draw high-order runes! There are not many high-order talisman masters within Chang'an City, if you can draw such talismans, what difficulty would there be to earn Immortal jade?” The more Xie Yuxin heard, the more surprised she was, and she suddenly stood up.

“I'm not very proficient in these kinds of talismans, the success rate isn't high, whether I can earn Immortal Jade is still unknown,” Shen Luo wasn't as confident.

“According to the success rate of your previous talisman making, earning Immortal jade is almost certain. However…”Xie Yuxin waved her hand, suddenly fell silent, as if considering something.

“However, what?” asked Shen Luo.

“If you are successful in drawing these high-order talismans, those shops would naturally be happy to buy them, but the price is bound to be suppressed. If you trust me, why not give me the talismans you've drawn to sell, the price will be much higher than selling them to those shops.” Xie Yuxin looked up at Shen Luo and said.

“If Elder Brother Xie is willing to take the trouble of selling, then it would be best, but I am afraid this is a laborious and time-consuming task that might take up your time,” Shen Luo hesitated.

“I have many freelance cultivator friends in Chang'an, selling talismans is not difficult. Now I also have nothing important to do, I'm just waiting for the Grand Annual Celebration. And by helping you sell talismans, I can also gain some benefits, it's not in vain.” Xie Yuxin blinked and smiled.

“In that case, I will no longer refuse, and as for the reward for selling the talismans, Brother Xie may take two-tenths.” Shen Luo said with a bowing gesture with both hands.

“Daoist friend Shen has misunderstood me, the benefits I'm talking about are not these. In fact, the times now are kind of chaotic, and the talismans you have are all good things. While I sell them, I can also get to know fellow cultivators. Just for this friendship alone, I have benefited a lot. Besides, earning money from making talismans is difficult as it is, if I take a share of the profits, how can you gather enough Immortal jade?” Upon seeing Shen Luo's misunderstanding, Xie Yuxin quickly explained.

“Even so, how can I take all the benefits and let Elder Brother Xie do all the work for nothing?” Shen Luo shook his head.

“Brother Shen, I consider you a friend, why do you have to be so formal, if you insist, you are belittling me!” Xie Yuxin's pretty face darkened, and she spoke seriously.

Shen Luo had benefited greatly from Xie Yuxin's kindness over the past few days, hence he intended to repay her with a small token, but seeing the strong reaction from Xie Yuxin, he gave up.

“Brother Xie, I have a question to ask you, are there any skilled alchemists here in Chang'an?” He remembered something and asked.

“Are you looking for someone to refine an elixir, friend Shen? Chang'an City is the center of the Great Tang Dynasty, there are indeed alchemists here. However, they are all within the Great Tang Dynasty Government or in some large sects with high status. We, as freelance cultivators, are nearly impossible to contact them. I'm afraid you will be disappointed,” Xie Yuxin grimaced and shook her head.

“Really not a single one can be found?” Although Shen Luo had expected this, he still couldn't help but ask unwillingly.

“I cannot do anything about it. Let me ask around among my fellow daoists, maybe they are able to contact them.” Xie Yuxin shook her head.

“Then I'll have to trouble Elder Brother Xie.” Shen Luo bowed again.

As he was short of funds and had no leads on the alchemy master, he was a bit mixed up, and no longer in the mood to go and experience the West Market.

But Changping Alley here was quiet and secluded, considered a rare place of tranquility in the bustling city, it was suitable for cultivating while drawing symbols.

Shen Luo went outside, paid the agreed reward to Guan Feng and sent him away, then returned to the small courtyard.

He immediately took out all the Immortal jade he had on him and asked Xie Yuxin to buy the various materials required for drawing talismans on his behalf.

Since he had decided to let Xie Yuxin help, he simply entrusted the task of purchasing the spirit materials to her, so he could fully devote himself to drawing talismans.

Half a month soon passed.

Xie Yuxin didn't boast, the talismans Shen Luo drew were all sold by her at a fairly reasonable price.

Shen Luo's success rate in drawing these high-level talismans wasn't high, but the value was still quite good. During this period, subtracting the cost, he had also earned nearly a hundred Immortal Jade, which was twice as fast as the time he was drawing Small Thunder Talismans in Jianye.

Excited, he quietly determined that if he had a chance to enter the dream next time, he would definitely practice these high-level talismans again to accumulate experience. If he could increase the success rate to half of the Small Thunder Talisman, then the speed of earning Immortal Jade could double again.

The process of earning money by drawing talismans was going smoothly, but the search for an alchemist was going nowhere. Despite Xie Yuxin's many inquiries, she couldn't find a suitable path.

“Forget it, let's think of a way after the Grand Annual Celebration.” Shen Luo sighed, picked up a piece of Green Frost Paper, and was about to continue drawing talismans.

“Knock knock knock,” a soft knock sounded from outside.

Shen Luo's brow furrowed slightly. Only he and Xie Yuxin knew about this place. Xie Yuxin had gone out early in the morning to sell talismans, and she usually wouldn't come back until the afternoon, and she wouldn't knock on the door when she came back.

“Could it be the blacksmith?” He got up and went outside, opened the courtyard door, and stood still.

A young girl in blue was standing outside the courtyard, and her skin was white as snow with bright eyes and rosy lips. In the middle of her eyebrows, there was a bright red flower spot, it was Ma Xiuxiu, who he had met in Jianye City.

“Miss Ma! How come it's you?” Shen Luo did not conceal the surprise on his face.

“What, doesn't Master Shen want to see me?” Ma Xiuxiu adjusted her hair, and smiled beautifully.

She now exuded an air of elegance and poise in every move, completely different from the shy demeanor she had in Jianye City, almost like a different person.

“Of course not, it's just that you seem like a completely different person now, Miss Ma, it just took me by surprise, that's all. Please come in.” The surprise on Shen Luo's face soon faded, he said with a slight smile, leading Ma Xiuxiu into the courtyard and to the living room.
