Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 198 The Inheritance of the Treasure Talisman (10,000 words, please subscribe)

The host's voice was loud and clear.

"The next item up for auction is extremely rare; it is a talismanic tradition passed down from an ancient sect. It is a method for making a precious talisman."

"This precious talisman is unlike ordinary talismans; its power is so great that it can even threaten a True Person!"

"What's even more remarkable is that such a rare inheritance of talismanic arts can be obtained by a second-tier talisman master!"

The host's words echoed throughout the auction hall.

The many Foundation Establishment cultivators present were all in high spirits, their eyes burning with excitement as they looked at an ancient jade slip containing cultivation techniques on the auction table.

However, the following introduction was like a bucket of cold water poured on him.

"The inheritance of this precious talisman is rare. The city lord personally examined this jade slip containing the cultivation technique and confirmed it to be genuine. However, the jade slip contains a restriction that limits its cultivation to only one person at a time."

"The city lord confirmed that the precious talisman needs to be nurtured by the talisman master with their own spiritual power. Unlike the nurturing of magic treasures, the precious talisman needs to absorb the basic source spiritual power of the talisman master."

"Moreover, the production of precious talismans is extremely difficult. The materials used are very precious, and it is difficult for ordinary second-level talisman masters to master it."

Upon hearing this, the enthusiasm of everyone present immediately waned.

The cultivators' basic source of spiritual energy is so abundant that they can't even earn enough for themselves, so how could they bear to use it to nourish the treasure talisman?

The depth of one's Daoist fundamental spiritual power is related to breakthroughs in cultivation realm.

Not to mention that this precious talisman is not easy to make, the fact that it consumes the basic source spiritual energy of cultivators is enough to make everyone hesitate.

Spending so many spirit stones and collecting such precious materials will deplete your Dao source spiritual power and affect your breakthrough in cultivation realm.

For them, such a precious talisman would not be worth selling at any high price.

It would be better to just buy some special talismans with great power.

Such as Thunder Talisman and Ice Talisman.

but.

After all, it is an extremely rare inheritance from an ancient sect.

The starting bid for the precious talisman and cultivation technique jade slip is not low.

Start with 30,000 spirit stones.

Before long, the price was bid up to 50,000 spirit stones.

"A precious talisman? Its power can threaten a True Person?"

Shen Xuan was quite tempted.

In his view, any spiritual object that can save one's life is worth the price, no matter how high.

Besides, he was originally a second-tier rune master.

It possesses a mysterious jade talisman and a golden finger.

Once you get the basics down, you can increase your proficiency through Taoist techniques.

The successful creation of the talisman was a done deal.

As for absorbing some of one's own spiritual power.

Shen Xuan wasn't too worried.

He himself has a long lifespan and abundant Dao-based spiritual energy.

The lost spiritual power can always be replenished through a few more years of cultivation.

"This thing is destined for me!"

Shen Xuan started bidding.

Shen Xuan didn't want to miss out on such a precious legacy.

"Eighty thousand yuan!"

Seeing that the bidding had reached a certain point and was becoming somewhat lukewarm, Shen Xuan directly offered a high price.

Inside the auction house.

The previously sparse bidding suddenly quieted down.

No one was following them.

After all, the price is a bit high.

It's close to three Foundation Establishment Pills from a sect.

That's enough to buy a mid-grade flying sword magic weapon.

Shen Xuan's previous offer was only 68,000 spirit stones.

Many cultivators present couldn't help but look towards the private room where Shen Xuan was.

However, the identities of the cultivators in the private rooms are kept secret.

They couldn't see Shen Xuan's appearance at all.

The host called out a few times.

Seeing that no one was bidding, he brought down the gavel.

……

In the box.

Ruan Siting personally carried in the precious talisman inheritance box.

After checking it over, Shen Xuan put it into his storage bag.

Eighty thousand spirit stones were exchanged.

"Brother Shen, rest assured. The identities of our distinguished guests in the VIP box are kept secret; no one outside knows them."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Ruan."

Shen Xuan understood that Ruan Siting was deliberately trying to befriend him.

He was pleased with the outcome.

After all, having more friends means having more options.

He and Ruan Siting had been friends for many years.

There is still a certain level of trust between them.

As for whether the buyer's identity will be exposed.

Shen Xuan didn't actually care that much.

The host explained it very clearly.

The transmission of the precious talisman is subject to restrictions, and can only be practiced by one person at a time.

After Shen Xuan began his cultivation.

To others, the inheritance of the treasure talisman is nothing but trash.

...The next auction will feature the spiritual items.

Each piece is more precious than the last.

Shen Xuan was just looking around to broaden his horizons.

No further bids were made.

He spent 80,000 spirit stones in one go.

Even the White Lotus Fairy dared not mention borrowing the spirit stone again.

She didn't know if Shen Xuan still had 20,000 spirit stones.

However, according to her understanding.

Shen Xuan never does anything he's not sure of.

One can bid 80,000 spirit stones to acquire the treasure talisman's inheritance.

Does this mean that Shen Xuan can create a magic talisman?
Thinking of this, the White Lotus Fairy felt a surge of passion in her heart.

No wonder he's the man Bai Lian has her eye on.

In the future, they will be able to contend with Core Formation Realm cultivators!
Even if it's just for a moment, it's enough to make him famous throughout the Song Kingdom!

The auction in the hall ended quickly.

Shen Xuan and the White Lotus Fairy drank some spiritual tea and rested for a while.

The second half begins.

Ruan Siting came in, carrying a set of robes and a divine sense mask.

After Shen Xuan changed into the new clothes, not a trace of his aura leaked out.

"Brother Shen, rest assured. This was specially prepared by the sect for the distinguished guests of the Free Trade Fair. No one below the True Person level can even peek at it!"

"Moreover, the city lord will be personally overseeing the free trade fair, so it's absolutely safe!"

"Brother Shen, please remember your number, number eighteen."

"Ok!"

Shen Xuan turned to the White Lotus Fairy and said, "Please sit here for a while. I'll be right back."

The White Lotus Fairy did not receive an invitation and was therefore ineligible to participate in the free trade fair.

"Shen Lang, be careful."

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Shen Xuan followed Ruan Siting to the fourth floor of the auction house.

Enter a small meeting room.

There were only about thirty people inside.

They all wore the same style of robes and masks.

Without a serial number, it would be impossible to distinguish them.

"As expected. Even my [Insight] technique is no longer effective."

Shen Xuan tried it.

Approaching a cultivator at a distance of two zhang.

I cannot sense the energy within him.

This distance is already very close.

Outside, Foundation Establishment cultivators would not allow strangers to approach within two zhang (approximately 6.6 meters).

however.

At this moment, Shen Xuan suddenly felt an extremely sharp divine sense descend upon him.

The heart beats wildly.

Every hair on my body stood on end.

His whole body was stiff, his spiritual energy was stagnant, as if he had been frozen in place.

"Are you Shen Xuan from the Qingyun Sect?"

A weathered voice rang in my ears, shaking my very soul.

As the sound rang out.

That terrifying sense of fear finally disappeared.

"Shen Xuan of the Qingyun Sect greets True Person Wuchen!"

Shen Xuan transmitted his voice to the gray-robed old man on the platform.

He was Chu Wuchen, the city lord of Yunyuan Immortal City and a Core Formation True Person.

"Don't leave after the meeting. I need to talk to you."

"Yes!"

Shen Xuan replied respectfully.

This is a Core Formation True Person.

He dared not be negligent in the slightest.

While there are a few exceptions of Qi Refining cultivators who manage to advance to Foundation Establishment, there are still a few such cases.

For a Foundation Establishment cultivator to fight against a Core Formation cultivator is practically a pipe dream.

For a Foundation Establishment cultivator to escape with their life from a Core Formation cultivator is already legendary.

"Master Wuchen, what brings you here?"

Shen Xuan was secretly alarmed, but dared not make any wild guesses.

Fortunately, Master Wuchen knew his identity.

I don't think they meant him any harm.

If he truly harbored malicious intent, it would be as easy for Master Wuchen to deal with him as to crush an ant.

"In the future, try to avoid occasions where real people are present."

"so horrible!"

The feeling of having one's life and fortune in someone else's hands made Shen Xuan very uncomfortable.

Soon, the cultivators present began trading freely.

One by one, cultivators stepped forward, took out their cultivation artifacts, and stated what they wanted to exchange for.

When it was Shen Xuan's turn, he took out the five magical treasures he had seized from the pirates and offered to exchange them for the blood of a second-tier water demon.
