Chapter 62 Aoki Ape

The team rested in the market for another day, and then the team members went out together to buy supplies.

Ji An learned that items such as insect repellent powder, talismans, etc. are all part of the team's expenses and do not require individuals to use crystals to purchase them.

Of course, everyone will buy some extra talismans to prevent the public reserves from being insufficient.

If a member uses a privately-stored talisman while out hunting monsters, the team will compensate the member for the loss at the market price upon return.

Everyone walked out of a talisman shop, and Chen Moxuan sighed slightly:

“Junior Brother Ji, the two talismans you made are not the best choices for purchase.

For defensive talismans, people prefer to buy the Golden Armor Talisman, which lasts long enough and does not require a tight grasp of the timing to release it.

In terms of attack spells, Explosive Fire Spell is the first choice. After all, most monsters are naturally afraid of fire.

If it weren't for the current huge consumption of talismans, it would be difficult to sell the talismans you made."

Yesterday, when he heard what kind of talismans Ji An was good at drawing, he felt it was a pity because none of them were the talismans the team needed most.

Otherwise, the team can buy directly from the other party. They don’t ask for any discounts, but at least they can get sufficient supply.

Nowadays, popular talismans are in short supply in various talisman shops and are often sold out within a few days of being put on the shelves.

"Human energy is limited, so I can only choose to research more advanced talismans on my own."

Ji An felt helpless. He also wanted to choose the Explosive Flame Talisman, but he didn't have Li Zhi's inspiration to refine it, so he could only practice and comprehend the spell slowly.

At this point, fire spells have lower priority than metal spells.

"Any talisman has conditions for use, but Junior Brother's Water Curtain Talisman and Gengjin Talisman have a narrower range of use.

If the quality of the talisman is good enough, people are willing to buy one or two of them as backup, even if they are unconventional.

Captain, have you forgotten that two months ago we wanted to buy a mid-grade golden armor talisman, but all the mid-grade defensive talismans were out of stock in all the stores. We had no choice but to buy two mid-grade water curtain talismans from a stall to make do.

If it weren't for these two water curtain talismans, our team would have suffered casualties."

Jiang Qiuyue comforted them, saying that none of the team members had expected the defense of the two mid-grade water curtain talismans to be so strong and last so long.

The defense during the spell's duration is much stronger than that of a mid-grade golden armor talisman.

"A talisman like that is already a top-tier mid-grade talisman, and it's hard to come by. Did you find the stall selling the Water Curtain Talisman yesterday?"

Chen Moxuan asked. He was also deeply impressed by the two water curtain talismans.

“I found it, but I didn’t buy the talisman.

The stall owner said that he gets his goods from the sect, and that he has received fewer mid-grade talismans these days, as they have all been reserved by regular customers."

"Did you reserve any?"

Jiang Qiuyue sighed helplessly: "I also want to make a reservation, but the stall owner said that there will be no stock in the next two months, and I have to wait until three months to make a reservation."

Ji An scratched his head. Could it be that the talismans he was selling were the ones he drew?

Wei Songnian said that there are not many talisman makers who can draw mid-grade water curtain talismans, and most of the people he cooperates with are street vendors like him.

Unless it is a bulk commodity transaction, the price sold to the store is relatively lower.

Jiang Qiuyue turned her head and asked:
"I haven't asked Junior Brother what quality the talismans he prepared are, and how many there are?"

"Yes, medium-grade Water Curtain Talisman and Gengjin Talisman, twenty each."

Chen Moxuan and his companions looked at each other. The total number of mid-grade talismans stored in their team was only about thirty, half for defense and half for attack.

"Yesterday, Junior Brother said he wanted to quickly earn crystals to exchange for Foundation Establishment Pills. Now I believe him."

After finishing their shopping, they rented a few caves to rest. The veteran team members gave Ji An various instructions, and Ji An listened carefully, memorizing them one by one.

Finally, after everyone discussed the monster hunting plan, they went back to rest.

Silent all night.

On the second day, when the sun was high in the sky, the team members left the market.

Meeting some small teams on the road, Chen Moxuan greeted the people he knew.

Everyone boarded the talisman bird and flew towards the distant mountains. The teams gradually dispersed and were submerged in the vast green.

Not long after the morning mist in the mountains dissipated, the air became cool and fresh. Ji An could clearly feel that the wood spiritual energy here was a bit richer than that in the spiritual field of Bishui Lake.

Scattered among the Ten Thousand Mountains are many tiny spiritual veins that have just entered the realm of quality. The area covered by these spiritual veins is not large, which is just enough to support the growth of some spiritual medicines.

"When we become rich, we must buy a small flying boat. The Fu Bird is too slow."

Tian Yulei complained that he also raised a spirit-seeking rat, but he did not have the secret method to tame the beast, so the spirit-seeking rat was not smart enough and was a little stupid.

Among all the rat-like monsters, the soul-seeking rat is relatively weak and often hybridizes with other monster rats. The soul-seeking rat with pure bloodline is extremely rare.

"To fly at high speeds using a flying boat magic tool consumes a lot of mana. Even a ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator wouldn't be able to sustain mana for more than a quarter of an hour.

If we move forward slowly, it won't be much faster than riding the Talisman Bird, unless we use spirit stones to provide spiritual power.

How many crystals do we earn in a month? How much will be left after training?"

Chen Moxuan shook his head. A small flying boat would cost three or four hundred spirit stones, so he was reluctant to buy it.

He has now saved up half a crystal for a foundation-building pill. If he works hard, he still has hope of building a foundation at the age of sixty!
After flying for half a day, they heard a sharp and cold monkey cry in the distance, followed by a series of monkey cries.

Chen Moxuan shouted in a low voice:
"We are very close to Cangyun Ridge, flying low."

Cangyun Ridge was the first target discussed last night. There was a group of green wood monkeys, about thirty in number, living there. These monkeys were guarding several green spirit fruit trees.

The Biling Fruit is one of the auxiliary ingredients for the Foundation Establishment Pill and contains rich wood-element spiritual energy. The team members discovered that the Biling Fruit is ripe recently.

The Ape King is only one step away from the Foundation Establishment Stage. There is also a Green Wood Ape at the ninth level of Qi Refining, who is the Ape King's spouse.

There was one Green Wood Monkey at the eighth level of Qi Refining, four at the seventh level of Qi Refining, the remaining sixteen Green Wood Monkeys at the middle level of Qi Refining and some young monkeys at the early level of Qi Refining.

Ji An followed everyone in lowering the altitude, and the Fu Bird flew above the treetops.

He was a little nervous, but more excited.

Everyone changed their formation. Chen Moxuanfei was in the front, Jiang Qiuyue and Chu He were on the left and right, and Tian Yulei was at the end. The four of them formed a tilted square.

Ji An was in the center, about four feet away from each person.

Chu He whispered, "Be careful, some snake monsters will coil in the treetops and prey on flying birds."

"Don't worry, I won't be careless."

Ji An took out the stone turtle shield and prepared to activate it at any time.

After landing safely at the destination, Chen Moxuan whispered:
“We have studied the habits of the Aoki Monkeys, and our plan is to lure out some of the monkey monsters and kill them first.

The Ape King will soon notice something unusual and will certainly send a few ape monsters in the late Qi Refining stage to lead some lower-level ape monsters to check it out.

At that time, we will bypass the ape monster that comes to check and rush forward to snatch the Biling Fruit.

The purpose of this trip is only to obtain the Jade Spirit Fruit. Don't linger in the battle. Then everyone should cover each other and escape on the Talisman Bird."
