Chapter 105 Talisman

Just when Wu Yan was about to see what kind of magic weapon was in the second brocade box, an old man walked up from downstairs slowly, glanced at Wu Yan, and walked over.

"Uncle Niu! You are here." Zheng Danxia stood up respectfully and bowed to the old man. The old man nodded.

Wu Yan also stood up, his face changed slightly. The old man looked at him just now, and he felt as if he was suddenly seen through. This feeling made him very uncomfortable.

"Don't worry, my friend. I am Niu Yu, the chief appraiser of this Danqi Pavilion and the actual person in charge of the Danqi Pavilion. I heard that you are going to sell something that even nephew Zheng can't identify. I am very interested." The old man has a clear face and a kind smile. He doesn't have the kind of mercenary of a businessman at all, and his words give people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze. This made Wu Yan feel a little relieved.

"Hello, Senior Niu. I asked around in the market and heard that your pavilion sells alchemy materials and good magic tools and talismans. I want to buy some handy things. But I don't have enough spiritual stones on me, so I have to sell a spiritual herb given by the elder. Haha..." Wu Yan answered half-truthfully.

Niu Yu was slightly surprised after hearing this and said, "You look unfamiliar, how should I address you?"

Wu Yan thought about it, hesitated for a while, and then said, "Junior Jin Ao, Senior, can you identify it quickly? I have other things to do urgently."

Niu Yu stroked his beard and smiled meaningfully, then said to Zheng Danxia, ​​"Danxia, ​​since this young friend Jin Ao has urgent business, then you can help him introduce the magic tools and talismans of our pavilion, and I will identify them on the side."

Zheng Danxia nodded in response, handed Wu Yan's brocade box to Niu Yu, and then opened the second brocade box, Pointing to a small shield emitting a yellowish-brown spiritual light, he said, "Fellow Daoist Jin, this shield is called the Black Copper Ruyi Shield. It is a very rare defensive top-level magic weapon. It is refined from a whole piece of black copper essence and the Great Wilderness Earth. It not only has excellent defensive performance, but also is agile and auspicious. Once a spell is cast, it can automatically defend around the owner of the magic weapon."

Wu Yan's eyes lit up, and he picked up the small shield that looked only the size of a palm but was full of spirituality in the brocade box. After a moment of hesitation, he said, "Can I try it out and see how it works?"

"Of course, Fellow Daoist Jin, just try it." Zheng Danxia's face lit up and said generously.

Wu Yan didn't take a second look at the first Golden Turtle Bee Needle magic weapon, which made Zheng Danxia a little worried. As a Danqi Pavilion that mainly refines pills and tools, it is absolutely unacceptable to encounter such an extremely rare thing as a thousand-year-old spiritual grass and let it flow to other families. Since Wu Yan is interested, that's good. What's the harm in trying it?

Wu Yan was not polite and slowly injected his magic power into the shield in his hand. The shield instantly lit up with a dazzling earthy yellow light, grew several times larger, flew out of Wu Yan's palm, and floated in the air.

Wu Yan's mind moved, and the small shield instantly began to fly up and down around him with great dexterity, which was really as he wished. Moreover, looking at the size of this shield, it can actually cover many vital parts of the body.

Wu Yan was overjoyed. This small and flexible top-level defensive magic weapon can actually complement the green tortoise shell high-level magic weapon obtained from Jiang Xiekong, protecting the whole body without any loopholes.

However, Wu Yan did not show much interest, but silently took the magic weapon back to his palm and put it back into the brocade box. Zheng Danxia, ​​who was next to him, felt a little nervous, and followed Wu Yan's actions, opened her mouth, and laughed dryly: "Could it be that this magic weapon is not in your eyes?"

"Haha, Zheng Daoyou, I want to see the treasures in the other two brocade boxes."

Zheng Danxia had to open the third brocade box. However, when opening the brocade box, Zheng Danxia's expression became much more solemn.

Wu Yan's curiosity was also aroused by his expression, and he couldn't help but look into the brocade box with his solemn movements.

After seeing this, Wu Yan showed a hint of disappointment and suspicion.

In the third brocade box, there was actually a lonely talisman. On the talisman, there was a black long brick pattern, which was black and shiny, and the image was vivid. I don't know what kind of magic is sealed in this talisman. It looks weird, but Zheng Danxia still values ​​it so much.

Zheng Danxia saw the disappointment and suspicion in Wu Yan's eyes, but he smiled mysteriously, as if he had expected Wu Yan to have such an expression.

"Fellow Daoist Jin, this talisman is the treasure of our pavilion. It is not an ordinary talisman. Those who know the value of it will naturally understand its power. However, if someone who does not know the value of it treats it as an ordinary talisman, then... hehe."

Wu Yan's face turned red when he heard what Zheng Danxia said. He did treat this talisman as an ordinary talisman. He looked at it repeatedly several times, but he really couldn't see what was special about this talisman.

"Danxia, ​​this golden flame grass is indeed a thousand years old, and it is a spiritual grass of more than 1,100 years. This spiritual grass is of great use to our sect. No matter how much it costs, you must get it from him. Remember, don't take it by force. If my judgment is true, this person must be a person of great origin. Within a thousand miles, the only person with the surname Jin is among the cultivators in the sect of cultivation." Just as Wu Yan was checking what was special about the talisman, the old man Niu Yu in the foundation-building period glanced at Wu Yan and said to Zheng Danxia next to him in a secret voice transmission.

Zheng Danxia nodded secretly to Niu Yu, indicating that he understood. The old man Niu Yu smiled and said to Wu Yan: "Friend Jin Ao, this golden flame grass is indeed old. I still have things to deal with, so my nephew will take care of you here. Just take a look, the materials, magic tools, and talismans in this pavilion are quite complete."

"Okay, Senior Niu, please help yourself." Wu Yan bowed and said to Niu Yu.

Niu Yu smiled slightly, put the brocade box on the table, and walked downstairs slowly.

After seeing Niu Yu off, Wu Yan said to Zheng Danxia with some embarrassment: "Friend Zheng, I'm sorry that I am not good at seeing this talisman. I hope you can explain it to me."

"Haha, Friend Jin, I wonder if you have heard of the name of talisman treasure?" Zheng Danxia stroked his beard and smiled happily.

"Talisman? Could this be a talisman?!" Wu Yan pointed at the talisman in surprise, and said in disbelief. After he finished speaking, he realized that he had lost his composure and coughed to cover up his embarrassment.

"From what Fellow Daoist Jin said, it seems that you know the origin of the talisman. Why did Fellow Daoist not seem to know it just now?"

"Haha, I'm sorry to make you laugh, Fellow Daoist Zheng. I have only heard some rumors, and I know very little about this talisman, and I have never seen what a real talisman looks like. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Zheng can teach me a thing or two?"

Wu Yan was telling the truth. He just happened to hear about this kind of talisman in some records in ancient books, and it seemed to be very powerful, but he had never seen what a real talisman looked like, let alone how powerful it was.

Zheng Danxia smiled and felt that this talisman was not a secret, but it might be related to knowledge and experience, and not many people knew about it. So he told Wu Yan everything about the talisman.

Wu Yan was really surprised when he heard this, and he secretly decided to get this talisman at all costs.

It turned out that this "talisman treasure" was really extraordinary. It was a powerful special item that could only be refined by cultivators above the Jindan stage.

In the world of immortal cultivation, when a cultivator reaches the Jindan stage, both his mana and magic have undergone earth-shaking changes. Ordinary magic tools can no longer meet their needs. They will collect a large amount of materials related to the attributes of their own skills and refine their own unique magic weapons. The power of magic weapons is simply unimaginable for ordinary cultivators.

This "talisman treasure" is a special talisman that a cultivator in the Jindan stage seals part of the power of the magic weapon into a special talisman paper, allowing ordinary cultivators to temporarily use the power of the magic weapon.

The good thing about this talisman is that even ordinary cultivators in the Qi Refining stage can use it, but the power it can exert is limited. After all, the cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage do not know how to condense, so they can only exert one or two tenths of the power of this talisman. The cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage can use the method of condensing the mind to fully stimulate the power of the talisman.

Moreover, the talisman has another advantage. That is, it has no requirements for the attributes of the cultivation method practiced by the cultivator, and there is no concern that the attributes of the cultivation method do not match the power attributes of the magic weapon sealed by the talisman, so it cannot be used or cannot exert its maximum power. Therefore, the "talisman" is a highly sought-after treasure in the cultivation world.

However, although the power of the "talisman" is amazing, its use will constantly consume the power of the magic weapon in it. If the power is exhausted, the talisman will be completely invalid.

Moreover, the refining of the "talisman" is also very special. After all, the magic weapon is originally a thing that can only be refined by the cultivators in the Jindan Stage, and its preciousness is self-evident. The power of the magic weapon mainly depends on the length of time it is condensed in its owner's body. After all, magic weapons are always condensed day and night in the true essence of the cultivator's Dantian, and they will never be shown to others easily. What's more, magic weapons are also closely related to the cultivator's innate true essence, otherwise why would they be called innate magic weapons by cultivators.

This refining of talismans is equivalent to a behavior of cultivators damaging the power of magic weapons. Under normal circumstances, no cultivator above the Jindan stage will do such a thing that harms oneself and benefits others.

However, there are always exceptions in the world. This seemingly self-harming and benefiting others thing is a crazy move that many cultivators above the Jindan stage who are about to face their doom will do.

You must know that magic weapons are the innate treasures that have been continuously condensed by cultivators above the Jindan stage with their innate true essence. Once the cultivator dies or sits in meditation, his innate magic weapon will lose its owner and become an ownerless thing.

The innate magic weapon has an inseparable relationship with the original owner, so the new owner who has obtained the magic weapon will never be able to achieve unity of mind and spirit with this magic weapon. The power of the original magic weapon will naturally be greatly reduced, and it is also required that the cultivator who inherits the magic weapon must have a cultivation base above the Jindan stage, otherwise the magic weapon cannot be used at all.

In this comparison, it is better to condense it into a talisman than to leave it to future generations. However, there are many restrictions on refining talismans. First, each talisman can only seal one-tenth of the power of the original magic weapon at most. Secondly, refining talismans will also cause a great loss of the original magic weapon owner's true essence, so it is impossible to continue to condense talismans.

Therefore, a cultivator above the Jindan stage who is about to die can only condense one or two talismans at most before he dies. This shows how precious this talisman is.

Since Wu Yan had come across such an extremely precious treasure, which was extremely powerful for cultivators in the Qi Refining and Foundation Building stages, how could he be willing to miss it?
