Chapter 277 Self-Destruct Talisman
“Yes!”
Upon seeing the teardrop, Deacon Zhang did not dare to say anything. Instead, he left the room carefully with a heart filled with curiosity.
When he arrived outside, Deacon Zhang could no longer suppress the doubts in his heart and muttered to himself.
“Elder Shi must have lost, but why is he crying? With his proud and arrogant nature as a genius, he should be able to withstand such a blow. Could it be that something else happened after he lost?”
Deacon Zhang really wanted to go out and see what was going on. He wanted to know the whole process, but Fatty Wang and the others would definitely find out what was going on when they went to fix the door.
Therefore, Deacon Zhang waited silently, waiting for Fatty Wang to return. The sun was setting in the West. The golden sunlight shone on the street, casting a layer of golden light on the world.
The figures of Fatty Wang and the others gradually appeared at the door of the shop and quickly returned to the shop.
“Fatty Wang, tell me what happened. What was the scene of the battle? I saw Elder Shi crying just now,” Deacon Zhang hurriedly said.
“This…”
Fatty Wang hesitated, and his expression became very strange. He did not know whether he should tell the whole story or not. “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and tell me, right now!” Deacon Zhang was angry and urged loudly.
“Yes! i’ll say it now.” Fatty Wangsorted out his words and continued, “From the information that we gathered, Elder Shi didn’t go to the Ice Snow Shop. Instead, he went directly to Lord Li Xuan’s residence.”
“As a result, he was kicked out just as he entered. Even the main door was smashed. After that…”
When Fatty Wang said this, the expression on his face became more and more strange. He even wanted to laugh.
“What happened after that? Don’t keep me in suspense!” Deacon Zhang urged.
“After that, Lord Li Xuan rushed out. Under everyone’s watchful eyes, and under many people’s disbelieving gazes, he grabbed Elder Shi and smashed him on the ground.”
“He smashed Elder Shi until his face was bruised and swollen, and his nose was covered in blood. At first, Elder Shi was still stubborn, and he wasn’t convinced.”
“It wasn’t until he was smashed dozens of times that Elder Shi finally wilted and chose to beg for mercy. In the end, Lord Li Xuan seemed to be getting used to smashing him, so Lord Li Xuan only stopped after smashing him a few more times.”
“Finally, after some discussion, Elder Shi took out two Transcendence Fruits to save his life. Then, elder Shi staggered back.”
“However, another thing happened during this period of time. Elder Shi’s clothes were torn. Halfway through, his clothes fell off and his entire person was exposed on the street.”
“He was coincidentally seen by a few middle-aged women. Not only were those old women not embarrassed, they even burst into laughter.”
“At that time, Elder Shi was so angry that he nearly vomited blood. In the end, he was so ashamed and angry that he took care of his clothes and ran back. You already know what happened after that.”
Fatty Wang explained bit by bit, telling the whole story.
After hearing this, Deacon Zhang was completely stunned, and his head was buzzing.
He had never thought that the story would turn out like this. It was already too much to be held up and smashed on the ground. In the end, his clothes fell off halfway, and he was ridiculed by a few middle-aged women.
To the proud and arrogant Elder Shi, this was simply a great humiliation.
“No wonder Elder Shi is in such a state. I didn’t expect to encounter such a thing. It’s really too tragic.”
Deacon Zhang sighed. He imagined the scene of Elder Shi’s clothes falling off. For some reason, he felt like laughing.
“Pfft!”
Fatty Wang could not help but laugh out loud. He hurriedly covered his mouth, causing Deacon Zhang to almost laugh out loud as well. He managed to hold back his laughter with great difficulty and immediately shouted.
“Scram to the West Street to stock up.”
“Yes, yes, yes.”
Fatty Wang and the others hurriedly ran away, leaving with the group. “Damn it, what is this? This is a great humiliation for Elder Shi. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have expanded the commerce chamber so aggressively.”
Deacon Zhang felt a headache coming on. He felt that this matter had a great impact on Elder Shi.
The main reason was that this genius had never experienced hardship since he was young. He was well-fed, and his cultivation was smooth and unrestrained. He did not encounter any difficulties. In the end, he suffered a huge loss this time. He was simply extremely unlucky.
“I hope that Elder Shi can persevere through this. Otherwise, he won’t be able to reach the Half-Step Gold Rank.” Deacon Zhang shook his head and sighed as he returned to the shop. On the other side, in Li Xuan’s small courtyard… Li Xuan was sitting in the study room and reading a talisman book. He was curiously flipping through the pages one by one. Beside him, Li Xueer was looking at Li Xuan with admiration. Her fair and slender little hands were continuously following the cinnabar ink as she stood quietly.
On the study table, there was a stack of long white paper. The paper was transparent and carried Spiritual Power fluctuations. One look and one could tell that it was not an ordinary item.
Next to the paper was a white brush. The brush was very small and could write very small characters. At the same time, it also had Spiritual Power fluctuations.
Obviously, these things had a certain relationship with talismans.
“Spiritual Brush, Spiritual Paper, Spiritual Ink. Writing Spiritual Characters and engraving Spiritual Patterns can actually form Spiritual Talismans that can store spells. This is not a bad idea.”
Li Xuan muttered to himself, feeling that this thing was very interesting. If he drew a batch of Spiritual Talismans, inputted his Self-Destruct Skill into it, and then buried it underground, it would definitely be a super mine.
Of course, he could also stick dozens of them onto the steel mantis, and send the steel mantis to attack the enemy, the impact would be on a disaster level.
Thinking of this, Li Xuan could not wait to start learning. However, there was only one way to draw Spiritual Patterns, and it felt very simple. Li Xuan turned his head to look at Li Xueer and said, “Li Xueer, how many types of spirit inscriptions are there? There’s only one on it, and it looks very simple.”
“Sir, there are a lot of Spiritual Patterns. There are probably thousands of them, and most of them are in the hands of the various large factions. The books are the basic Spiritual Patterns, and these Spiritual Patterns are related to arrays…”
“I don’t know the specific reason. I’m currently at the primary stage, and I only know the basic Spiritual Pattern and Spiritual Characters.”
Li Xueer explained softly without hiding anything. At the same time, she was also surprised that Li Xuan said that the Spiritual Patterns were simple.
That was because she took three months to learn how to write Spiritual Patterns. However, Li Xuan said that it was simple after reading it once. This surprised Li Xueer, but at the same time, she was also a little depressed and envious.
She did not doubt Li Xuan’s words. Such an expert would not bother to lie to her. However, it was because he did not lie that she was depressed.
She had painstakingly studied for three months before she could learn it, but the other party only needed to read it once to learn it. This kind of disparity was truly heart-wrenching. Fortunately, Li Xuan had taken over the commerce chamber. In the future, the entire commerce chamber would belong to Li Xuan. Since she had someone to rely on, she did not think too much. Instead, she earnestly explained the knowledge of talisman seals to Li Xuan.
Time passed. In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.
During these two days, under the guidance of Li Xueer, Li Xuan’s talisman seal technique improved rapidly. At the same time, he had also grasped the method of separating the corpses of Demonic Beasts and understood their value.
For example, the most precious Demonic Cores could be sold at a very good price. There were also furs that could be used to make weapon refining materials and even Spirit Paper that could replace talisman seals.
Blood could replace cinnabar sand. One could also bathe in the blood of Demonic Beasts and strengthen the body. It was definitely a great tonic for low-level martial artists.
In addition, the limbs of Demonic Beasts could be used to make weapons, and their flesh could be used as food. It was also a great tonic. In short, the body of a Demonic Beast was a treasure.
Such a harvest made Li Xuan very happy. Of course, he was looking forward to the two Transcendence Fruits, because the Transcendence Fruits were almost arriving tomorrow. “Tomorrow, I’m really looking forward to it.”
