83: Mastering the fourth-grade talisman formation, coming towards people
“Really?”
Ye Mier was overjoyed at the news.
She immediately hugged Ye An and planted a kiss on his cheek.
“Thank you, Master, thank you, Master, I’m so happy!”
Ye An was momentarily stunned by Ye Mier’s actions.
Good heavens, you’re almost thirty, older than me, yet you’re still so childish as to kiss your Master?
If you’re going to be so proactive, then be more proactive!
The maidservant nearby smiled helplessly and then went downstairs.
After her excitement, Ye Mier quickly asked.
“Master, what did you just say was too big?”
Ye An’s old face flushed red upon hearing this, and he quickly said.
“Ah, nothing!”
“I was saying the ceremony for you becoming my disciple was too grand!”
“Your Master absolutely wasn’t looking improperly, I was just moved by your enthusiasm!”
“Well, do you have any learning manuals for Fourth-Rank Formations and Talismans here?”
“Bring them for your Master to study!”
“Yes, I’ll get them for Master right away!”
Ye Mier quickly turned to search.
Ye An also found a seat and sat down.
He surveyed his surroundings while waiting.
However, he soon realized something seemed off.
Logically, Ye Mier was the shopkeeper, so she shouldn’t be unaware of where these two manuals were kept.
But this girl was rummaging through things left and right, searching for a long time without finding them.
During this time, large patches of snowy white skin were occasionally exposed.
Ye An couldn’t help but exclaim in his heart.
Isn’t this a world of Cultivation?
Why do I feel like I’ve stumbled onto a film set?
But honestly, let alone Ye An, how many men could resist such temptation?
In the end, Ye An himself felt embarrassed watching and turned his head, simply no longer looking at Ye Mier.
And this girl, Ye Mier, was incredibly cunning.
When she felt it was about time, she finally walked over, holding the two manuals.
Ye An’s excited heart took a long time to calm down.
He thought to himself, he was here for serious business today, and if he continued to dally with Ye Mier like this, it would probably be dark soon.
Taking the manuals, Ye An said.
“I’ll look at these first!”
“You go attend to your business!”
“Understood, Master!”
Ye Mier didn’t say much and immediately went downstairs.
Ye An finally had time to open the manuals and examine them.
Sure enough, the System’s voice soon rang out in his mind.
【Ding! Host is currently learning Fourth-Rank Formation and Talismans manuals. This time, 200 merit points can be invested to directly learn the corresponding skills!】
【Invest now?】
Ye An had been waiting for this moment and immediately shouted in his mind.
“Invest!”
【Ding! 200 merit points deducted. Fourth-Rank Formation Talismans have been successfully Fused!】
Listening to the System’s voice, Ye An immediately felt two streams of information surge into his mind.
The key points for inscribing Fourth-Rank Formations and Talismans were especially clear, as if he had comprehended them through his own diligent effort!
Ye An was excited. Seeing the blank Formation scrolls and Fourth-Rank Formation diagrams on the table, he immediately picked them up and began to try copying them.
Indeed, as the key points of the Fourth-Rank Formation Fused, Ye An’s inscription was incredibly proficient!
The entire process had no pauses, completing the inscription of a Fourth-Rank Formation scroll in one go.
Feeling the subtle killing Qi emanating from the Formation scroll, Ye An smiled in satisfaction.
“Having the System certainly makes things a lot easier!”
“I have two thousand subordinates at Decapitation Mountain to support; relying solely on Third-Rank sub-professions definitely won’t work!”
“With these Fourth-Rank items, the pressure will be a bit less!”
“But I still need to quickly strive for Fifth-Rank!”
“Only if I can refine or inscribe Fifth-Rank Medicinal Pills, Talismans, and these other items, can I truly make big money!”
Ye An pondered in his heart.
Before coming to Ye Family Pass, he had already understood the economic situation of Ye Family Pass from the branch family.
In a place like Ye Family Pass, most of the activity involved Heavenly Mansion Realm experts.
The main selling points were items like Third-Rank Medicinal Pills, Formations, and Talismans!
Fourth-Rank sub-profession products actually didn’t sell very well here.
This was mainly because, firstly, they were too expensive and not cost-effective!
Secondly, the Cultivators’ strength was limited, and many items were beyond their control!
For example, many Heavenly Mansion Realm experts couldn’t control Fourth-Rank killing Formations and Talismans; improper use could even harm themselves.
In contrast, Jianglan City primarily focused on Fourth-Rank and Fifth-Rank sub-profession products!
However, it was mainly Fourth-Rank, because there were too few sub-profession Cultivators who could refine Fifth-Rank items!
Those with that ability would generally go to larger places like White Province to develop.
Who would be willing to stay in a place like Jianglan City?
Li Xiaotian’s Li family, back then, only managed to hire a Fourth-Rank sub-professional at a great cost.
So, if Ye An could refine Fifth-Rank sub-profession products, taking them to Jianglan City would definitely mean demand would far outstrip supply.
That was the real opportunity to make big money!
Therefore, Ye An’s goal was not Fourth-Rank at all; Fourth-Rank was merely a transition.
Fifth-Rank was the core stage of his grand plan to get rich!
However, to learn Fifth-Rank sub-professions, Ye An would have to reach the Golden Core Realm.
And raise his Mental Energy to the Peak of the Golden Core Realm!
Only then could he learn Fifth-Rank sub-professions with the fewest merit points.
Of course, this not only required time for his strength to slowly increase, but he also had to quickly earn merit points to prepare for boosting his Mental Energy to the Peak of the Golden Core Realm.
So, Ye An still had many things to resolve!
While Ye An was deep in thought, Ye Mier came up again, carrying a pot of brewed tea.
“Master, you must be tired. Take a break and have some tea!”
Ye Mier immediately poured a cup of tea for Ye An.
Then, she dutifully went behind Ye An and began to massage his shoulders.
Ye An drank his tea, feeling the slender fingers kneading his shoulders; this feeling was simply indescribable!
“This disciple was worth taking!”
Ye An sighed in his heart.
Joking aside, what man wouldn’t want to live this kind of life?
“Master, did you inscribe this Formation?”
As Ye Mier was massaging, she suddenly saw the Fourth-Rank Formation scroll on the table.
She immediately bent down to pick it up.
But her bending down was fine for her, but Ye An couldn’t handle it.
He was, after all, sitting at the table, and Ye Mier bent over to retrieve the scroll from behind Ye An.
At that moment, her entire body was practically pressed against Ye An’s back.
Ye An’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately felt something pressing against him.
He exclaimed in his heart!
“My little ancestor, can’t you go slower? If you press it too hard and damage it, do you really not care about your own things?”
Ye Mier, however, seemed completely oblivious to anything amiss.
She placed the Fourth-Rank scroll on the table, then wrapped her arms around Ye An’s arm, rubbing back and forth.
“Master, I want to learn Fourth-Rank Formations too!”
“Will you teach me, please?”
“Please, please!”
Looking at Ye Mier’s pouting expression, let alone the seventy-year-old Ye An!
Even if Ye An’s three-hundred-year-old grandfather were here, he wouldn’t be able to resist!
“Alright, alright! I’ll teach you, I’ll teach you, just stop swaying, you’re making me dizzy!”
Ye An quickly said.
Ye Mier, seeing this, quickly sat beside Ye An and retrieved a new blank scroll.
Under Ye An’s guidance, she began to inscribe.
However, this girl’s mind was clearly not on the task.
She failed several times in her inscription attempts, finally pouting.
“Master, you have to teach me hand-in-hand, otherwise, how will I ever learn!”
Saying this, Ye Mier smoothly nestled into Ye An’s embrace, gently placing Ye An’s hand over hers.
At this, Ye An was also stunned.
But his mind had already caught on, and he muttered to himself.
“Good heavens, so you became my disciple not for the Fourth-Rank sub-professions at all!”
“You’re here for me!”
