83: Storm is coming

Soon, Gu Chang returned to Fuqi Pavilion and directly sold hundreds of Talismans in his hand.

"Fellow Daoist, your craftsmanship is becoming increasingly exquisite. It seems it won't be long before you can Breakthrough to the Intermediate First-Grade level."

Shopkeeper Lin of Fuqi Pavilion calculated the Spirit Stones and complimented Gu Chang.

"Oh, no, no, it's just practice makes perfect. I'm still far from a Breakthrough, so I don't deserve such praise."

Gu Chang immediately shook his head. He felt that the other party was intentionally probing him.

"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist is indeed modest. Then I won't say more. I only hope that if you draw better Talismans in the future, you will still remember our pavilion."

The other party was naturally an old fox, so he laughed heartily to defuse the awkwardness.

"Yes, if that day comes, I will definitely come to Fuqi Pavilion!"

Gu Chang took the Spirit Stones, gave a perfunctory reply, and then left. Although the shopkeeper of this shop seemed amiable, Gu Chang knew that anyone who could be a shopkeeper here was definitely not a simple person.

However, whatever his thoughts, as long as he didn't leave Qing Ling Market, they wouldn't dare to act recklessly within the Market.

Then Gu Chang went to several other shops to sell Talismans until he had sold more than half of his stored Talismans. The Spirit Stones he gained this time, after deducting costs, were enough for him to buy the remaining content of the Mixed Origin Skill.

With the intention of being prepared for any eventuality, Gu Chang immediately went to a shop specializing in Cultivation Techniques and bought the remaining content of the Mixed Origin Skill's Qi Refining chapter.

"Phew~ I'm finally relieved. It's a pity that Qingling Mountain also seems unstable."

"I hope it won't affect the interior of the Market, otherwise, I'll have to make plans as soon as possible."

To be honest, Gu Chang was quite pessimistic about the sudden appearance of the ancient ruins. If there was nothing inside, it would be fine; it would just be a wasted trip for those Cultivators.

However, if someone truly discovered some Heaven And Earth Treasure or an incredible Legacy within, then it is foreseeable that the entire Qingling Mountain will become a storm's eye!

Those large sects would absolutely not allow those good things to fall into the hands of Loose Cultivators!

What would happen then would truly be hard to say.

At least, the Cultivator world Gu Chang had come into contact with during this period was definitely a more naked world of the strong preying on the weak!

After returning to his Immortal Cave, Gu Chang quickly memorized the content of the Mixed Origin Skill and then began to organize his gains.

Currently, he still had more than twenty Spirit Stones left in his spatial bag. This amount was truly not much, but he still had over a thousand Low Grade first-rank Talismans of various types that had not been sold.

The reason he did this was, on the one hand, to cover up his excessively high success rate, and on the other hand, to keep these Talismans as a trump card.

For example, Blazing Flame Talismans can be stacked. The effect of using a single one is only comparable to a weaker hand grenade, and it doesn't have the shrapnel damage of a hand grenade, only burning damage.

However, if ten or a hundred Blazing Flame Talismans are used together, then the power will be completely different, directly transforming from a hand grenade into a large bomb!

Of course, the best method is to put these Blazing Flame Talismans into a container and detonate them together, which would further increase their power!

At the same time, Talismans like Vajra Talismans and Returning Spring Talismans are also very useful; defense and healing are indispensable at all times.

"Besides these Talismans, the only thing I can bring out now is this Ebony Sword, a Low Grade Magical Artifact, whose power is really not very good."

"If I have enough time in the future, I might be able to find a few better Magical Artifacts, but for now, let's forget about it."

Of course, the main reason was that Gu Chang's own Martial Dao strength was strong enough that Low Grade Magical Artifacts could not break his defense, and Medium Grade Magical Artifacts could hardly truly harm him. Perhaps High Grade Magical Artifacts could, but not many Cultivators possessed such Magical Artifacts.

Moreover, he couldn't afford High Grade Magical Artifacts that cost thousands of Spirit Stones, and carrying them would easily make him a target. So, it was better to continue using the Ebony Sword to play the pig to eat the tiger.

After inventorying his belongings, Gu Chang continued to draw Talismans, but this time he was drawing Golden Blade Talismans.

After several failures, Gu Chang gradually found his rhythm. It wasn't until nightfall that he finally drew his first Golden Blade Talisman.

"The experience from Blood Talismans is indeed useful. It seems I need to keep up the good work in the Reincarnation World!"

That night, Gu Chang re-entered the Reincarnation World.

However, this time he didn't rush to practice Cultivation Technique or draw Talismans. Instead, he returned to the capital city and went directly to the Engineering Academy to check the progress of the electrical equipment.

"Your Majesty, this is the generator you mentioned. It can generate current with just human or animal power!"

"This generator is truly amazing. It can generate electricity out of thin air, but it's not easy to control. A slight mistake can electrocute someone."

The generator that appeared before Gu Chang was, to be honest, a rather crude and bulky behemoth. Its main Materials were wood, gold wire, and magnets. Although it could generate electricity, its power was truly disappointing.

However, Gu Chang was very satisfied with this, because once the first step was completed, the subsequent matters would be much simpler.

"You all have done well. You are truly the pillars of the nation. This money was definitely not wasted!"

So Gu Chang immediately praised them, making these old craftsmen, old scholars, and old educators as happy as children in their fifties or sixties.

"However, next, I need you to continue improving these things. Human and animal power are ultimately not stable and long-lasting enough. It's best to change to hydropower. This gold wire is too expensive; you can use copper wire, or even silver if absolutely necessary!"

"Finally, there's the safety issue. You can try wrapping these metal wires with other Materials..."

Then Gu Chang's tone shifted, and he began to propose new suggestions to them, causing them to nod continuously and take careful notes.

Soon, Gu Chang left the Engineering Academy. Afterwards, he visited other academies, inspected the achievements and discoveries of each academy, and also discussed and exchanged ideas with some Spirit Refining Experts.

It wasn't until a few days later that Gu Chang left satisfied. It must be said that currently, all academies have entered the right track, and all aspects are steadily progressing, which is the best result for him.

After returning to Mount Leifeng, Gu Chang immediately began to draw Golden Blade Blood Talismans. For this, he specifically used better Materials.

However, even so, it was not smooth. After several days of repeated attempts, he finally truly produced his first Golden Blade Blood Talisman!

"Swish! Boom!"

Compared to the Blazing Flame Talisman, a Low Grade first-rank Talisman, the power of the Golden Blade Talisman was undoubtedly elevated by a notch.

After activating this Talisman, a huge crimson blade shadow instantly condensed out of thin air. Then, this blade shadow was rapidly slashed out, and in an instant, a large rock in front was pierced, exploded, and destroyed.

"This power is already comparable to my own Martial Dao Divine Paragon strike. If an ordinary Spirit Refining Expert can't dodge it, their fate will surely be death or severe injury!"

"Not bad, not bad. Now I finally have something that can be called a trump card in my hand."

Gu Chang was quite satisfied with the power of the Golden Blade Talisman, because this Talisman could not only be used in the Reincarnation World but also exchanged into the real world. Next, he only needed to draw more of them, and at critical moments, they would definitely cause people to suffer greatly!

So, after finishing his tests, he immediately immersed himself in drawing Talismans and practicing Cultivation Techniques. Two months passed in a flash again.

"Phew~ This time I obtained over a hundred Golden Blade Blood Talismans. They only cost twenty Reincarnation points to exchange, which is not bad!"

The next day, when Gu Chang woke up, he looked at the exchange price of the Six Paths of Reincarnation and was immediately satisfied.
