The sweet young woman who welcomed Xu Fan and Ming Kong smiled gracefully and said in a considerate tone, "Taoist friend, the powerful talismans offered by our merchant association can at least harm Quasi-Immortals or reach the limits of what the middle thousand world can endure."
Her voice was soft, just loud enough for the two to hear.
"Harming a Quasi-Immortal is one thing, but reaching the limit that the middle thousand world can withstand is a bit more challenging," Xu Fan replied. As he spoke, he drew symbols in the air with his left hand, while his right hand displayed the Holy Sun and Moon’s Shadow power.
At that moment, Xu Fan instantly became the center of attention in the grand hall.
All the cultivators engaged in transactions in the hall changed their expressions. They felt a powerful energy gathering in Xu Fan’s palm, and if it were to unintentionally explode, they would be doomed.
In an instant, various defensive celestial tools and divine powers lit up, and the atmosphere in the hall became tense.
A figure appeared beside Xu Fan, exuding an aura as deep as the ocean.
The black-robed cultivator looked solemnly at Xu Fan. "Taoist friend, has our Spring Blossom Merchant Association failed to serve you properly?"
Just as the black-robed cultivator finished speaking, Xu Fan had already fused the talisman and the Holy Sun and Moon’s Shadow power together.
The powerful and violent energy was sealed, and the cultivators trading in the hall relaxed their tense hearts. They looked at Xu Fan with awe.
Figures like Xu Fan, a Supreme Elder, typically stood at the peak of their realm and would not usually engage in such trivial transactions.
"Senior, I apologize. Seeing your esteemed merchant association buy powerful talismans made my hands itch a bit."
"This talisman I just engraved is a gift for you as an apology," Xu Fan said with a smile.
The young woman who had been serving them stood up and greeted the black-robed cultivator, saying, "Greetings, supervisor!"
The black-robed cultivator nodded and received the talisman handed over by Xu Fan, examining it closely.
"Unexpectedly, a young taoist friend like you is already a dual grandmaster in both talismans and formations, I am in awe!" The black-robed cultivator sat in the position where the young woman had been and nodded slightly to Xu Fan in respect.
Xu Fan smiled back in response.
"The talisman you drew contains the power of the Holy Sun and Moon’s Shadow, combined with a grandmaster-level formation seal. At critical moments, it can catch a true immortal off guard and seriously injure them."
"My merchant association will purchase this talisman for thirty Immortal Jade," the black-robed cultivator said after pondering for a moment.
One must know that at the Spring Blossom Merchant Association, four hundred Immortal Jade could buy a low-level celestial tool.
Ming Kong, hearing this price, looked envious. He had just seen how effortlessly Xu Fan drew the symbols and sealed the Holy Sun and Moon’s Shadow power, creating a talisman worth thirty Immortal Jade in no time.
If he were Xu Fan, he would immediately inscribe talismans, wasting not a single moment.
Xu Fan was visibly taken aback by the price; he did not expect that the casual talisman he created would be so valuable.
This was an opportunity not to be missed; such an injustice would not be tolerated by the heavens.
"Senior, does your merchant association buy as many of these talismans as there are available?" Xu Fan inquired.
"To be honest, high-powered talismans are very popular in the Immortal Realm, and we have no worries about selling them. If you have the ability, how about taking all the Immortal Jade that our Spring Blossom Merchant Association brought this time?" the black-robed cultivator replied with a smile.
In the Wood Origin Grand World, a talisman created by a grandmaster of talismans is worth at least fifty Immortal Jade. Xu Fan’s talisman, however, is even more valuable as it combines the disciplines of talisman crafting, sealing formations, and the fusion of Holy Sun and Moon’s Shadow.
If such a talisman were to be acquired by masters of talismans and formations, they would likely treat it as a sacred relic. They would study it meticulously, seeking to understand the profound laws of the wide road it embodies, until its power fades.
For them, this isn’t just a talisman; it’s a gateway to becoming grandmasters in both talismans and formations. Essentially, the Spring Blossom Merchant Association made a huge profit by purchasing Xu Fan’s talisman for thirty Immortal Jade.
Having existed for hundreds of thousands of years in the Wood Origin Grand World, the Spring Blossom Merchant Association is adept at matching the right items with the right buyers. Hearing the black-robed cultivator’s offer, Xu Fan was intrigued to meet the association’s owner, impressed by their exceptional service.
"I’ll carve more talismans in the meantime," Xu Fan said with a smile.
Just then, the black-robed cultivator’s expression changed.
"Taoist friend, could you create specific talismans for us? They don’t need to be as powerful as this one," the black-robed cultivator asked, while casually energizing both Xu Fan and Ming Kong.
Xu Fan was unfazed, but Ming Kong felt a bit uncomfortable. The black-robed cultivator was at least at the true immortal level, and a formidable one at that.
"Senior, please go on," Xu Fan encouraged.
"Gold, wood, water, fire, and earth—talismans of the five elemental origins, each must contain insights of a grandmaster-level talisman," the black-robed cultivator specified.
"The Spring Blossom Merchant Association will purchase them for one thousand Immortal Jade per set, up to ten sets," he added.
"Sure, I can have them ready in as little as ten days, or up to half a month," Xu Fan agreed, starting to grasp the association’s intentions with these talismans.
"Don’t hurry, there’s more," the black-robed cultivator continued.
"Fate, reincarnation, Holy Sun, Moon’s Shadow, dark void, stars, heavenly force, god or demon, devouring, chaos—how many of these source talismans can you refine?" he inquired.
"The Spring Blossom Merchant Association will buy each type for one thousand Immortal Jade," he stated.
Xu Fan pondered, realizing the truth in the saying: knowledge is power, and power is money.
"Senior, feel free to list more; I can handle all of these," Xu Fan responded lightly, as if the black-robed cultivator’s questions were too elementary.
"Cursing, slaughter, Deadly Poison, extinguishing sentiments, universal salvation, dominating the heavens, true dragon…" the black-robed cultivator listed, noting that talismans with such unique wide road laws are highly prized in the Immortal Realm.
After finishing, he looked at Xu Fan expectantly.
"Senior, please continue," Xu Fan urged.
"That’s all; the wide roads cultivable by the human race are limited to these," the black-robed cultivator said, now looking at Xu Fan with astonishment.
"Do you truly know how to craft these wide road source talismans?" he asked, skeptical.
In his ten thousand years in the Wood Origin Grand World, he had seen many talented individuals, but none at the Great Ascension stage who could master so many wide road laws.
"Senior, you jest. How could one person master so many wide road laws?" Xu Fan replied.
"I have two brothers; they are also grandmasters of talismans. Between the three of us, we cover all the wide road laws you mentioned," Xu Fan explained with a smile, feeling as though he had stumbled upon a goldmine.
"Taoist friend, as I mentioned, our association will buy each type of wide road law talisman for one thousand Immortal Jade, with a limit of ten talismans per type," the black-robed cultivator said eagerly.
If he could secure these source talismans imbued with wide road laws, his promotion to regional supervisor would be guaranteed.
"Senior, give me one year. I need to consult with my two brothers," Xu Fan requested after some thought. Originally, he could complete these talismans in about half a month.
But in such circumstances, it’s wise not to stand out too much.
