Chapter 33: Han Yunzhi! If you are new, practice more! (Please read and recommend!)
"I didn't expect that even Master Yun Cang was defeated! The strength of this group of independent cultivators is really extraordinary!"
Seeing that the battle was over, everyone left, but they agreed to go earlier next time. This time they didn't see anything and only heard a few noises.
Han Li didn't refuse because he wanted to watch the fun.
After the competition ended, all the stalls at the Tainan Fair returned to normal and Han Li started shopping again.
At the trading stall of Tainan Hui, Han Li saw a wide variety of talismans, which aroused his interest in talisman making.
During this period, he also obtained a primary high-level flying talisman.
At night, Han Li returned to the gathering place of the wandering cultivators and joined their chat.
During the conversation, everyone also talked about the predicament faced by independent cultivators after joining the sect.
"I've also heard from friends that even if we, the independent cultivators, are lucky enough to become disciples of an immortal sect, only a few can successfully build a foundation after taking the foundation-building pill!" Hei Mu said dejectedly.
"Not only that, because cultivators who come from a background of independent cultivation will be bullied by those family cultivators if they join a sect, they will be forced to carry out those hard and tiring tasks with little benefits and high risks, and they will have no time to practice at all."
Taoist Master Song Wen also had a lonely look on his face and glanced at Han Li.
"Even if we, the independent cultivators, unite together, we will have no place to stand in that sect."
When Han Li and the other two heard this information, their expressions looked a little grim, but they also felt a little bit lucky.
"I joined the sect with the Immortal Ascension Order, so I should be different from those casual cultivators, right?"
"Maybe"
Because the date of the Ascension Conference was approaching, more than a thousand people gathered in Tainan Valley.
Because Li Mufeng brought the Loose Cultivators Guild to intervene this time, there were more people, and those cultivators who got the news were still rushing to the Loose Cultivators Guild in an endless stream.
"Today's challenger is Qin Yeling, Ye family, Ye Lang!"
"Han Yungang!"
“Mingxi Han family, Han Qiu!”
"Successful defense!"
"Cook! Just practice more!"
There is no doubt that these people could never be the opponents of the people sent by Li Mufeng. Even An Puyu, the weakest among the three, had two top-grade magical weapons on him, one of which was a top-level ghost shadow shoe.
Possessing this top-level magical weapon, his speed far exceeds that of others.
Although Han Li and the others arrived early today, the place was still crowded. However, this time, the three of them managed to grab a place where they could see the battle scene.
Han Li also took a closer look at the three people from the Loose Cultivators' Union.
Jiang Jing practiced illusion, An Puyu relied on his speed to leave several phantoms in the arena, and Jiang Chuan practiced an earth-attributed technique and wielded a huge heavy sword, which looked terrifying.
"These three are so powerful, I'm afraid they will have a place in this Ascension Conference!"
Huang Xiaotian sighed.
"Fellow Daoist, you are wrong. I'm afraid these three people will not participate in the Ascension Conference."
Song Wen smiled and spoke meaningfully.
"That's right. Once they enter a sect, they don't have the freedom as casual cultivators. I'm afraid no one can snatch the foundation-building pills from them."
Huang Xiaotian thought about it and sighed.
"Okay, today's competition is over. Let's try again tomorrow."
As the Tainan meeting progressed, it became longer and longer.
More and more people were defeated by the Loose Cultivators' Union.
"boom--"
"What a great guild of casual cultivators!"
In a secret room, several foundation-building monks gathered here, and one of them slammed the table in anger.
"How brave!"
"Hehehe - if that's the case, then send another disciple up."
Another voice said mockingly.
"Humph--"
After hearing this, the man sat down gloomily. The strongest cultivator of their family had been defeated by the other side and was no match at all.
"Everyone, don't you understand yet? This loose cultivator union is probably really not simple."
"Among the three people this time, apart from the boy surnamed An who relied on the magic weapon, the other two boys surnamed Jiang are not ordinary people."
"If we don't send out our family's core disciples, we will definitely lose face this time."
After the man finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the person sitting in the first seat.
"Mr. Ye, what do you think?"
"The four jackals, tigers and leopards of your Ye family have all been defeated."
"Do you want to continue hiding?"
The old man being looked at was none other than the current head of the Ye family in Qinyeling. The Ye family, which had now absorbed the Qin family, was also the leader of the outer cultivator families of the entire Lanzhou sect.
The old man opened his eyes calmly.
"Don't be impatient. The best dishes should be saved for last."
On the other side, Taoist Song Wen was strolling on the street when suddenly a figure passed by him.
"How is the task assigned by the young master being completed?"
"It's almost done. I guess that kid no longer has any expectations for the so-called sect."
"What about the surveillance of those families?"
"We have people watching over us. Everything is under control."
"The young master has ordered that someone be sent to contact Master Yuncang, Monk Siming, Master Yuanji, and Taoist Yongfeng."
The two people just passed each other, and the voice transmission was completed immediately, without anyone noticing.
"Well, everything is done according to orders."
Han Li was strolling around when he was suddenly attracted by an exclamation.
"Look, what a big bird!"
A male cultivator suddenly exclaimed.
Then, a huge black shadow passed over the heads of Han Li and other cultivators on this road.
Han Li was shocked and looked up quickly.
They saw a strange two-headed bird the size of a calf flying over their heads.
This bird looks like an eagle but is not an eagle. It is covered with gray feathers and its wingspan is several feet wide. It has a pair of sickle-like sharp claws under its body. On its neck are two bald, ferocious bird heads with four small eyes that glow green.
What a vicious monster bird!
"So ugly!"
"So big!"
"Catch it quickly, it's perfect for use as a mount!"
……
The immortal cultivators below stopped and started talking, and some were even eager to give it a try.
"You guys are courting death! This is a spiritual bird called the 'Double-headed Duck' that is kept in captivity by the Yan family of Guyushan, the first great immortal cultivation clan. There must be someone from the Yan family on it. Do you want to seek death?"
A few cold words woke up some people's sweet dreams.
"The Yan family? The only immortal cultivation family outside of the major immortal cultivation sects that has cultivators in the Jindan stage?" Someone lost his voice.
"Is it this Yan family or which Yan family? I came earlier than you, so I have seen this 'two-headed duck' once. I also know that this time the Yan family has sent a brother and a sister to participate in the competition of the Ascension Conference!" Another cultivator boasted proudly.
"No way! The Yan family also sent people to participate in the Ascension Meeting. In previous years, they never sent anyone! In this case, there must be two fewer places!"
"That's right. If we run into the two people from the Yan family on the stage, we will be in big trouble!"
"Look! That strange bird is landing in front of us!"
Suddenly someone pointed at a strange bird falling in front of them, and an idea came to everyone's mind.
"Could it be that the Yan family is really here to participate in the Loose Cultivator Guild Arena Competition?!"
"What?! The Yan family is going to participate too?!"
"The enemy of the Loose Cultivators' Union this time is no ordinary one!"
"The Yan family is truly the number one immortal cultivation family in Yue Country. It is said that there is a Jindan ancestor in the family. The cultivators of the Yan family are not ordinary people like us ordinary cultivators."
A casual cultivator said sourly. Han Li smiled faintly and turned away.
Suddenly, he found a familiar figure standing in front of a sweet and lovely girl's stall.
"Li Mufeng?! Why is he here? With his level of cultivation, he shouldn't be interested in these ordinary things, right?"
Because he had made up his mind to join the sect and stay away from Li Mufeng, Han Li decisively chose another direction when he saw Li Mufeng over there.
On the other side, Li Mufeng was picking and choosing at the girl's stall.
"This Ice Talisman is very powerful, and this Rejuvenation Talisman can greatly restore your physical strength."
It was the first time that the girl had seen a man as handsome as Li Mufeng, and she couldn't help but step forward and recommend him.
Hearing this, Li Mufeng smiled.
"Your technique in drawing talismans is very good."
Li Mufeng praised the girl with a smile on his face, and the girl blushed because of this.
Looking at the shy girl in front of him, Li Mufeng was sure that she was Han Yunzhi, the woman who sold the Golden Zhu Talisman Pen to Han Li.
However, in the original novel, he said that he had no talent for talisman making. It seems that this was because of his self-persuasion that he fell in love with the Yellow Dragon Pill in Han Li's hand.
You should know that the siblings Han Yunzhi and Han Yungang passed the Ascension Conference and entered the Spirit Beast Mountain.
The Han family is also a super clan that practices immortal cultivation, but there are so many branches of this super clan that it is difficult to count them.
When Han Yunzhi and Han Yun had just been reduced to participating in such a cruel meat grinder competition as the Ascension Conference, one could tell to what extent their branch had fallen.
Han Yun had challenged Jiang Jing before and was quite powerful. I think he passed the Ascension Conference with his own strength.
So how did Han Yunzhi pass?
And if she really didn't know how to make talismans, this stall would be full of things related to talismans, a large number of elementary and primary level talismans, and a small number of elementary and intermediate level talismans.
Han Yunzhi's cultivation is slightly lower than his brother Han Yungang's. He is only at the tenth level of Qi Refining, and he is not a combat type of cultivator. Obviously, the only means by which he can pass the Ascension Conference is talismans.
Later on, Han Yunzhi was valued by the Nascent Soul ancestor of the Han family, probably because of her unique talent in making talismans, rather than her dual spiritual roots.
Otherwise, there are probably at least a hundred cultivators with dual spiritual roots in the entire Han family, if not two hundred. Why did they choose you, Han Yunzhi?
Seeing that Li Mufeng was staring at her, Han Yunzhi blushed and lowered her eyes shyly. She mustered up the courage to look at him, but was afraid of being discovered, so she could only gently stroke the messy hair on her forehead to hide her embarrassment.
"younger sister!"
At this moment, a huge roar broke the awkwardness.
A burly giant whose body was no match for Qin Gang came running towards this side, knocking down some immortal cultivators along the way. Those immortal cultivators were originally furious, but when they saw that the giant's body was far beyond that of an ordinary person, they all showed horror on their faces, hesitated for a moment, and had to accept it with a pinch of their noses.
The girl saw the giant's actions clearly and felt a headache. This brother was too reckless. Wasn't he making enemies with other immortal cultivators for no reason?
The giant man ran to the girl and stared at Li Mufeng with a hostile look, as if he was afraid that Li Mufeng would abduct his sister away.
"Sister, let me tell you, pretty boys like this are the most unreliable. If you want to find a partner in the future, look for someone like me who can protect you. Those pretty boys are useless just because they look good."
Hearing her brother's message, the girl glared at him fiercely.
The angry one replied, "I don't want to!"
"Fellow Daoist, your skill in making talismans is quite good. I wonder if you have any jade slips of this kind. If so, I am willing to pay spirit stones to buy them."
Li Mufeng looked at the dozen low-level talismans in his hand and asked in a voice transmission.
In fact, he was also very interested in the art of talisman making, but he never had the chance to learn it. Now the talismans in the guild of casual cultivators were all purchased from the cultivators recruited by the Yuanwu Kingdom.
"This"
Han Yunzhi felt a little embarrassed when she heard Li Mufeng's message.
She did have it, but it was a family secret. Her ancestor was indeed a master in talisman making, and now she was learning how to make talismans from him.
Seeing the girl's embarrassment, Li Mufeng was delighted and thought to himself, "Sure enough, there is one."
"I want all the things you have here, how about that?"
"You want all of them?"
The girl looked at Li Mufeng in disbelief.
Li Mufeng nodded and threw a storage bag to the girl.
"Just order a little."
The girl’s spiritual consciousness entered the storage bag and found at least five hundred spirit stones. Her face changed.
"Senior, there are too many!"
"The things I have here are not worth that many spirit stones"
But before she could finish her words, Li Mufeng waved his hand and interrupted her.
"Fellow Daoist, your craftsmanship is quite good. Have you ever heard of the Loose Cultivators' Guild?"
"A guild of scattered cultivators?"
As soon as Han Yun heard the name, he remembered the enemy in the ring before and his face changed.
He was already considered a powerful monk, but he was no match for that guy.
The girl nodded silently.
"The extra spirit stones will be considered as a deposit for you. You can sell some of the talismans you make to the Loose Cultivators' Guild in the future."
"We have quite a few good things in our Free Cultivator Guild, including Fiery Sunflowers, Foundation Building Pills, and pills for refining mana and improving cultivation. Maybe you will find them useful one day in the future."
Li Mufeng's eyes fell on the two people in front of him and said with a smile.
"Of course, if you are willing to join our Loose Cultivators Guild and become its Talisman Master, we will not let you down."
Han Yunzhi and Han Yungang looked at each other and felt a little puzzled. What kind of spiritual object was this Fiery Sun Flower that could be ranked ahead of the Foundation Establishment Pill?
"Thank you for your kindness, my brother and I have another mission to accomplish and need to enter the sect."
The girl politely declined Li Mufeng's invitation, but then hurriedly added a sentence for fear of angering the other party.
"But I will definitely sell some of the talismans I made to the Loose Cultivators' Association in the future."
"In that case, it's a shame."
Li Mufeng felt a little regretful. In fact, he felt that Han Yunzhi in front of him was not bad. He could take her as a maid and have her manage the Loose Cultivators Guild for him in the future.
To be honest, now that the independent cultivators' association is getting bigger and bigger, he has also practiced several kinds of martial arts.
After a while, he plans to train some maids to help him complete these daily management tasks.
But since the other party refused, forget it.
"In that case, let's forget it."
Li Mufeng shook his head and prepared to turn around and leave.
"Please wait a moment."
But at this moment, the girl called Li Mufeng and handed him a jade slip.
"Senior, these are some of my summed up experiences in making talismans, as well as some of my family's methods of making talismans. My family's talisman making techniques are family secrets and I have no way to tell them, so please forgive me."
"Senior's spirit stones should be used to buy this."
Li Mufeng smiled and did not refuse. He took the jade slip and entered his spiritual consciousness into it.
It is indeed a very detailed summary of the experience in making talismans. In addition, there are many methods of drawing talismans, and there is even an intermediate and beginner-level talisman.
It seems that the girl is currently studying.
"You're welcome. Don't forget to sell some talismans to the Loose Cultivators' Union to exchange for some points. You will need them one day."
Looking at Li Mufeng's graceful back as he left, the girl felt lost.
The Tainan Small Meeting is already halfway through, and there are still a large number of monks coming to the Tainan Small Meeting.
This is the largest gathering since the Tainan Conference. The number of people has now exceeded two thousand, but more people are still coming here.
More than ten days passed.
During this period, Han Li also bought a lot of good things here, such as a fragment of a magic weapon with concealment function.
Not only that, Han Li also broke through to the ninth level of Qi Refining in the secret room.
During these ten days, cultivators continued to come to participate in the competition organized by the Loose Cultivators' Union, but no one won!
So far, none of the three champions have lost!
You should know that in the next ten days or so, the challengers were no longer ordinary casual cultivators, but the real elite descendants of some cultivator families. They carried top-level magical weapons on them, and the techniques they practiced were not the common ones practiced by casual cultivators, but the secret techniques of their family. However, they all failed.
However, so far, not nothing has been gained.
Except for the first and third arenas, where the two monks surnamed Jiang have not yet figured out the limit, the champion of the second arena, An Puyu, has been identified.
In addition to the Ghost Shadow Shoes, An Pu Yu also has the Ghost Shadow Needle. When he was dealing with the Blue Light Fairy from the Lan family, he was already exhausted. If he hadn't relied on the Ghost Shadow Shoes to drag down the opponent, he would probably have been defeated.
Suddenly, a piece of news reached the ears of every cultivator in Tainan Society.
Three days later, the final battle in the ring!
If no one can defeat the three champions, then the three foundation-building pills will belong to the champions!
