64: Chapter 64 Confidence, Certification

In contrast, Wang An's talismans have a short duration but act quickly, which is a fairly obvious advantage.

Of course, the disadvantage is that they are quite expensive, costing over a hundred times more than what other sects charge.

Once sales open up, the unit price might even go higher, especially since the authorities might buy them all up.

He cannot release too many at once; he must control production. Five sheets a day is a reasonable range, as drawing these talismans consumes a significant amount of true qi.

He also cannot monopolize the entire market all at once, or he would offend too many people. This is considered targeting the high-end market.

Since it was posted on the trading section, there are only one or two thousand Professionals on the exchange platform.

After a few hours, some Professionals finally commented and asked below.

"Daoist, does it really have this effect? How can you guarantee it will work? Do you accept inspecting the goods before payment?"

An Ran: "I am naturally clear about the effects of my talismans. Currently, I only accept payment before shipping."

"I will be heading to the authorities in a few days for functional verification. Everyone need not worry about the efficacy of the talismans; the authorities will issue an announcement in a few days."

Then, an acquaintance appeared below to ask him a question.

Daoist Priest Zhang Mingqing: "Little friend An Ran, why is your talisman drawing method different from ours? You've omitted the spirit-invoking and qi-lifting parts, but the core section in the middle is extremely profound; I can't quite make it out."

Of course he couldn't understand it. This was something Wang An discovered only after taking a photo with his phone and uploading it. Only by being physically close to or touching the talisman he drew could one feel the profound principles of the core runes.

Therefore, he wasn't afraid of posting it; no one could learn it anyway. This incomprehensibility only adds to the persuasiveness of the talisman.

"Wow, a real master! It seems Daoist Anran's talismans are truly effective if even Daoist Priest Zhang Mingqing can't understand them."

An Ran: "Daoist Mingqing, my talismans are organized based on my own understanding."

"It's not convenient to discuss the specifics here. We can communicate via the authorities when I go over in a few days."

After replying with this, Wang An did not look at the other discussions.

He found the item verification application on the exchange platform, submitted photos and various data regarding the Yun Shen Talisman, and scheduled an appointment to head to the authorities for verification in a few days.

Seeing that the appointment was successfully confirmed on the platform, he ignored the private messages from others and continued his daily routines: cultivation, Qi Gathering, and refining and perfecting his own system of legal runes.

A few days later, he checked his Professional panel again and sighed, seeing that his three-dimensional attributes had grown slowly and barely increased.

[Name: Wang An, Essence: 3.05, Qi: 3.07, Spirit: 3.34]

In fact, he was doing quite well; these small increases were the result of his daily practice using various wondrous methods.

Without a high-energy production environment and advanced cultivation techniques containing corresponding principles, it might take one or two months to increase by 0.01.

There was one piece of good news: Wang An discovered that as his comprehension of the principles deepened, he became more adept at using his wondrous methods, and the effects were slowly strengthening.

One morning, on a mountaintop behind the villa area, Wang An was practicing a set of Tai Chi. His entire body moved with the flow of the Tai Chi, smooth and fluid like flowing clouds and running water.

As he unleashed force, the air was stirred by his palms, rippling with waves of energy as he suddenly exerted power.

"Bang!" A dull sound echoed out.

Then, he threw a whip-hand strike into the air. "Crack!" A crisp, pleasant snapping sound rang through the forest.

After completing the entire set of Tai Chi, Wang An's breath remained long and steady, though when he exhaled, white mist shot out like an arrow.

When the strong wind on the mountaintop blew past and was about to hit Wang An, it seemed to be deflected by something, forming a gaseous protective shield around him that prevented the gale from entering.

After finishing his practice, he gathered his qi and leaped, covering over ten meters in a single step, and disappeared after a few flashes.

With his current strength, he could already evade the aim of ordinary firearms; apart from missiles with a kill radius of over a hundred meters, he could basically dodge anything.

This was also the source of his confidence in selling these Yun Shen Talismans; ordinary forces could no longer threaten him.

Furthermore, once the construction of the Mine Pit Hotel and the Feng Shui energy field was completed, he could bring his parents over to enjoy life, leaving him with absolutely no worries.

Today was the scheduled time for verification. Heading to the Special Resources Management and Recycling Department, which served as the verification site, Wang An arrived in just a few dozen minutes.

After getting out of the car, he saw Daoist Priest Zhang Mingqing and Daoist Mingxin of the Jingming Sect waiting for him at the entrance.

Upon seeing Wang An, Daoist Priest Zhang Mingqing's eyes were filled with eagerness as he hurriedly asked, "Where are the talismans? Did you bring them?"

"The few of us discussed it for a long time but still couldn't figure out what your core runes are actually used for." Daoist Mingxin also nodded in agreement.

Before Wang An could answer, Daoist Priest Zhang Mingqing grabbed the box Wang An had brought with one hand and pulled him with the other, hurriedly leading Wang An into the depths of the Recovery Bureau.

The official personnel for this verification included not only Ji Fangmei, who was standing gracefully in the verification area, but also a middle-aged man with a square face and a serious expression.

As the two saw them approaching and were about to speak, they were interrupted by Daoist Priest Zhang Mingqing.

"Old Yuan, stop dawdling, hurry up and start! If the effects that little friend An Ran described are truly real, this is a major event for the development of talismans."

Seeing that the usually composed Daoist Priest Zhang Mingqing was so impatient, the middle-aged man named Old Yuan shook his head with a wry smile.

Beside them, Ji Fangmei maintained a Professional smile as she led them to the specific verification area, while also curiously sizing up Wang An.

He was handsome and dashing, dressed in a dark blue Daoist robe with his long hair tied up, and a few strands hanging down on the sides of his face. His demeanor was calm and steady in every movement, exuding an air of an immortal.

The group entered a separate verification room, which contained an instrument the height of a person. It was grayish-white, with cameras, detectors, and at least five or six visible peripherals.

Ji Fangmei stepped forward to operate the instrument, while the others watched with expectant gazes.

Wang An took the box from Daoist Priest Zhang Mingqing and went over to a table. Opening the box, three carefully placed talisman papers were revealed. At a glance, the rune structure on the paper was vastly different from traditional Daoist talismans.

Because most of the content related to spirit-invoking and qi-lifting had been removed, there were almost no characters on these talisman papers that an ordinary person could recognize.

Most eye-catching of all was a complex, full-moon pattern in the central core, connecting the other rune blocks.
