The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

Chapter 98 Good things come in hard times (I beg you to order them all!)

A year and a half had passed when Xu Zhiyu drew all the two hundred talisman-making materials brought by his grandfather into invisibility talismans.

Perhaps due to the improvement in the success rate of making talismans, the time it took him to draw an invisibility talisman was also greatly shortened. What originally took two years to complete, it was now half a year ahead of schedule.

The harvest was good, I got one hundred invisibility charms, plus the original sixty, for a total of one hundred and sixty.

Although this quantity cannot allow every monk in the family to have one, it is not a problem.

The family also has many clansmen who are stuck in the early stage of Qi training due to poor qualifications. During the future beast tide, these clansmen should be arranged in the clan mountain and under the protection of the clan protection formation, instead of letting them go out. Fight with monsters.

Their strength is too poor, and they will probably die if they go to the battlefield. Only those who are in the middle stage of Qi training and above will be sent to fight against monsters.

There are currently about 120 monks in the middle stage of Qi training and above in the Xu family. This is what he learned from the family records when he was in the family. Even if the number has increased after six years, he estimates that it will not exceed one. One hundred and fifty people, each with an invisibility charm, is more than enough.

If it's really not enough, after he returns to his family, he can collect some more materials and draw more. It won't be a big problem.

Where there is good news, there is bad news. The bad news is that the silver-scaled eggs are not hatching smoothly, and the time may be extended.

That was three months ago, when Xu Zhiyu was concentrating on drawing a talisman. Suddenly, a message from the unhatched Silver Scale came to his mind, causing him to fail in drawing the talisman and wasting a piece of material.

Xu Zhiyu put down what he was doing, hurriedly entered the nursing room, and came to the formation of hatching silver scales.

After arriving, the message he received became more obvious, but Xu Zhiyu didn't understand what the message meant because it was very vague and difficult to understand.

This made him anxiously walk around the nursing room, looking for answers to his questions. While staring at the silver-scaled eggs, he racked his brains and thought, but he still had no clue.

He thought about ignoring it for the time being, but the message kept appearing over and over in his mind, which had a great impact on him making the talisman.

If this was a spirit beast that had already been born, he could order it not to disturb him, but this spirit beast that had not yet hatched could not understand such an order at all. It relied entirely on instinct to do things.

Xu Zhiyu thought about it for a long time and suddenly remembered the beast control secret book of his third brother Xu Zhipeng. He was in a hurry to hatch the Silver Scale Man, so he only briefly read the content related to the egg-laying monsters, and did not read the whole book carefully. There are solutions to the problem above.

He took out the secret book and sat in front of Silver Scale Egg, and read it carefully.

Don't tell me, he actually found some clues.

The book specifically states that "Mutated monsters are different from regular monsters, and their hatching methods may vary from beast to beast. The specific method depends on the situation, to change the hatching method or the required spiritual objects."

Seeing this, Xu Zhiyu felt a little clearer in his heart. There was nothing wrong with the formation that looked like Bagua. Otherwise, how could it have hatched well in the beginning? If something went wrong halfway, it should be a problem with the spiritual creature.

The spiritual objects used are also very simple, just the ice attribute spirit stone, plus his blood essence, but his blood essence can be completely eliminated. It is used for the contract with the spiritual beast and has nothing to do with hatching.

At this time, he was able to determine that the problem was with the ice attribute spirit stone. Of course, it was not the spirit stone itself that had a problem, but that due to the mutation of the silver scale, the ice attribute spirit stone alone might not be able to meet the hatching needs.

Thinking of this, he took out the various attribute spirit stones of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth in turn and began to test them one by one to verify what he thought. As he expected, when Xu Zhiyu approached with the metallic spirit stone, the egg shell shook slightly, and then another message came to his mind. This time he understood that it meant desire and need.

Now that the problem was found, he immediately took out sixty-four metallic spirit stones and placed them one by one around the silver-scaled eggs. Sure enough, just like the ice-attribute spirit stones at that time, the egg shells were slowly absorbing the spiritual energy in them.

However, what is different from last time is that this time the beast egg absorbs spiritual energy much faster than before. This may be because as the embryo continues to develop, more spiritual energy is required.

If the ice-attributed spirit stones were used to incubate, it would probably take two years to complete, but with the addition of metallic spirit stones, he estimated that the incubation time would increase a lot.

But now the incubation is in progress, and the process must not be interrupted. During the incubation process of the spirit beast, the eggs cannot be moved easily. If they cannot hatch successfully before the two-year period, then he can only hope My grandfather is already a late-stage foundation-building monk after all, so maybe he can solve this problem.

From then on until Xu Zhiyu finished drawing all the amulets, the hatching Silver Linmang never sent him any messages. It seemed that everything was going well.

After making the talisman, Xu Zhiyu had nothing to do, so he left the cave. He was going to see another spiritual beast that belonged to him, Huahua, who had been in seclusion for nearly two years.

When she came to the door of her cave, she found that it was still tightly closed. It seemed that Huahua's retreat was not over yet.

This was strange. As far as he knew, although the spirit beasts advanced slowly, it only meant the time they stayed in one stage. It did not mean that the time it took to break through and advance would be long.

When a normal spirit beast breaks through a small stage, it actually takes about the same amount of time as a human monk. For example, it took him half a year to break through from the sixth level of Qi training to the seventh level. In comparison, the time it took was a bit too long. .

"It can't be because of the unknown elixir he got from Wei Lishan's storage bag, right?" Xu Zhiyu began to be suspicious again, but then he comforted himself and said:
  "No, no, that elixir looks quite miraculous. It refreshes you after just one sip. There will definitely be no problem! Huahua must have received great benefits from seclusion for such a long time. She has been slowly digesting and assimilating it. It will cause the retreat time to be too long.”

Xu Zhiyu couldn't enter the cave either, for fear of affecting Huahua in seclusion, so he could only worry outside.

However, through the spirit beast contract, he could roughly sense that Huahua was fine and in a stable condition, otherwise he would have rushed into the cave a long time ago!
  "Hey, Zhiyu, when did you leave seclusion?" Suddenly a voice came from behind Xu Zhiyu. He was thinking about something, so he didn't notice anyone approaching.

"Oh, it's the fourth uncle. My nephew has just come out of seclusion. Isn't he here to see the spiritual beasts who are making breakthroughs in seclusion?" Xu Zhiyu turned around and found that it was the fourth uncle Xu Zhengxin.

"Does that mean you have nothing to do now? Anyway, the Spirit Beast Breakthrough is standing next to you and you can't help. It just so happens that the Red Flame Iron Mine is busy with the final finishing work, counting the quantity of raw ore, processing the raw ore and so on. There is no one to take care of me, and I am very busy. It just so happens that you can go and help me. What do you think?"

Xu Zhiyu thought for a moment and felt that he had never been to a mining area since he came here! The tribesmen who came with him had no idea how much work they had done and how much mining they had dug. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he thought of this!
  Although he went into seclusion to draw talismans for his clan members and contribute to his family.

But it gives others the impression that he just comes to this place for vacation, and is pampered and pampered! Not doing any work seems to have a bad impact.

So after thinking for a while, he smiled and said: "Okay, Fourth Uncle, I will go to the mine with you right now, and I will also exercise!"

Xu Zhengxin was equally happy to hear that Xu Zhiyu agreed. The uncle and nephew went to the mine one after the other.
