Immortality and Cultivation: Starting with Harvesting the Talents of Demonic Beasts

Chapter 30 Trading Meeting
Soon.

Tantai Feiyue took the initiative to visit, bringing a gift basket.

Lin Changheng received them with great hospitality, but one of the talismans was strikingly beautiful, its strokes bold and elegant, radiating a vibrant spiritual light.

It was a high-quality [Frost Talisman], and his pupils shrank instantly.

"This was something I acquired by chance while working away from home, and I'm just passing on it to you, Brother Lin."

With a smile on her face and her red lips slightly parted, Tantai Feiyue explained.

How could Lin Changheng really listen to this woman's superficial words?

This talisman was likely drawn by her own hand, but she couldn't say it outright; it was probably an implication of her own worth.

"They must be like me, having refined exquisite pills, but daring not to show them to others..."

Lin Changheng understood this all too well; tsk tsk, this woman is quite a character.

After discussing the cooperation, the guests and hosts were all in high spirits. When seeing the guests off, Lin Changheng also gave them a gift in return.

……

Tantai Feiyue returned to her small courtyard carrying the two square boxes.

Recalling the way Lin Changheng's pupils had contracted just now, she couldn't help but smile.

He was quite pleased with himself.

You always put on a calm and collected act whenever we meet, but this time things have finally turned sour, haven't they?!

The exquisite talisman was indeed drawn by her, and it was also her intention to give it away.

It's all for the sake of having a voice.

In the world of cultivation, alchemists and talisman masters of the same rank stand side by side, with alchemists naturally holding a higher status and being implicitly respected.

After all, elixirs are closely related to cultivation level, and some even say that there are only two things that cultivators cannot avoid: fighting and taking elixirs.

Therefore, the status of alchemists is evident.

Therefore, when Tantai Feiyue took out her exquisite talismans, she wanted to use her superior talisman skills to maintain her voice and prevent Lin Changheng from completely dominating the situation in the future.

Full of self-satisfaction, she opened one of the wooden boxes. Hmm, [Wood Essence Pill], the aroma of the medicine is irresistible, the quality is quite good!
His alchemy skills were truly remarkable.

He immediately felt even more strongly that his thoughts, considerations, and actions were extremely appropriate.

Continue opening the wooden box.

Ok? ? ?
A perfectly round pill, as green as jade, appeared before my eyes. I took a light sniff and smelled its clear, refreshing aroma, which lingered and did not dissipate.

This is?

Premium [Mu Yuan Dan]?
He can also refine high-quality pills?!
After repeatedly confirming in disbelief, Tantai Feiyue's smile suddenly froze, her lips parted slightly, but she couldn't utter a single word.

Recalling Lin Changheng's strange expression when he returned the gift, she finally understood his meaning. She was immediately furious, her full breasts heaving violently, white waves crashing against them.
"Using my own methods against me?"
This guy... he's absolutely despicable!!

……

The end of the month is approaching.

The tribal trade fair is held on the inner bank of the Blackwater River and its location is rarely changed.

When Lin Changheng and Xu Fugui arrived, many Xu family cultivators had already moved tables, set up stalls on both sides, and were already hawking their wares.

Dozens of people were coming and going, selecting and inspecting items, creating a scene reminiscent of the bustling Zichuanfang of yesteryear.

"Brother Lin, let's set up here."

Xu Fugui found an empty space in the stall and quickly called Lin Changheng over.

"Alright."

Lin Changheng readily agreed and strode over, his eyes scanning the stalls on both sides. He noticed that they were all spirit grains, spirit teas, spirit herbs, and other items grown by the Xu family cultivators themselves, as well as talisman paper, talisman ink, and small pieces of ore... all of which were low-grade and of average quality.

Approaching Fu Gui's side, Lin Changheng took out the hammer-shaped magic weapon from his robes and placed it on the table.

They began to wait. "Brother Lin, this magical artifact..."

Xu Fugui also took out some second-hand items he had used in the early stages of Qi Refining and placed them on the table. But when he turned his head, he saw the hammer-shaped magic weapon and asked in surprise.

"This was obtained from the Jiexiu last time. It's a bit old and not very useful to me, so I might as well sell it."

He had barely finished explaining when a young male cultivator from the Xu family approached him, asking, "How much is this magic artifact?"

"Twenty spirit stones."

Lin Changheng quoted a reasonable price.

"So cheap?" The young male cultivator was initially delighted, then frowned, deliberately finding fault, "But the quality of this magic artifact is really average, and it has these chips, and..."

"Sorry, no bargaining."

Lin Changheng knew exactly what he was up to and cut off his bargaining efforts with a single sentence: "It's precisely because of these flaws that it's priced this way. Do you really want to buy a perfectly good magic weapon for twenty spirit stones? Or, I'll give you the spirit stones, and you can sell it to me?"

"This……"

The young male cultivator gave an awkward smile. Seeing that Lin Changheng was no longer looking at him, he fell silent. After another change in expression, he gritted his teeth and bought the magic artifact.

"Ok?"

Lin Changheng hadn't expected to sell so easily on his first time setting up a stall! After putting away the spirit stones, he greeted Xu Fugui, "You keep selling, I'll go browse the nearby stalls."

"it is good."

Watch as you walk.

Suddenly, Lin Changheng's nose twitched slightly as he caught a whiff of blood.

Turning my gaze, I saw a member of the Xu family opening the cap of a white porcelain bottle in front of a stall selling talisman-making materials on the left, examining something.

"Fu Mo?"

Lin Changheng had a sudden thought.

So he approached the stall selling talisman-making materials and began to examine them with great interest, constantly asking the stall owner questions.

After some communication.

A look of realization dawned on Lin Changheng's eyes.

It turns out that not only alchemy requires the essence of demonic beasts, but talisman making also needs it!
This point was overlooked because his focus on alchemy limited his perspective.

For example, the bristles of the talisman brush used to draw talismans are usually made of the soft hair of demonic beasts;

The talisman paper that carries spiritual power is made from the skin of a demon beast;
Fu Mo, on the other hand, is made by combining demon blood and cinnabar.

Among them, ordinary quality talisman ink is made with common demon blood, while only high-quality talisman ink uses the essence blood of demon beasts.

"Do you have any fine talisman ink for sale?"

"No..." The stall owner shook his head.

Lin Changheng then left, but planned to turn back and ask Tantai Feiyue about this matter, perhaps to find another way to obtain essence blood.

We returned to the stall we shared with Fugui.

Lin Changheng thought for a moment, then took out seven or eight genuine pills and placed them on the stall, chatting as he waited.

He casually mentioned that, logically speaking, clearing land and killing demons should result in an abundance of essence and blood, so why hadn't the clan seen any demonic flesh or blood? He still wanted to taste it.

"Flesh and blood of demonic beasts?" Xu Fugui was taken aback and scratched his head. "I have heard Han Ling mention this before."

"Oh? Tell me about it, I'm very curious."

Seeing Lin Changheng's eager eyes, Xu Fugui chuckled, "They say that on the border of the wilderness, the upper sect set up a supply and trade point to help cultivators convert their materials into cash. They joined forces with several major families and Foundation Establishment families to jointly purchase various resources in the wilderness, saving cultivators the trouble of carrying materials around everywhere."

"This supply and trade point is now quite large, comparable to a market town, and has all the necessary functions. It is similar to other places in our clan. We only bring back a small amount of urgently needed resources, and sell the rest on the spot."
