#1769 - Talisman Pen

However, most of these paper talismans were blank. A single talisman paper was placed in the middle, with only half of the runes inscribed on it. A spirit talisman brush was casually tossed beside it, and the remaining dozen or so finished talismans were placed on a corner of the long table.

This scene inevitably gave the impression that the predecessor had been in the middle of making talismans when he was suddenly called away by an urgent matter. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left the talisman half-finished.

In Wu Fan's opinion, it was very likely that a great battle had suddenly broken out, and the person had rushed to support without regard for anything else.

However, Wu Fan didn't care about that. His eyes were burning as he focused on the spirit talisman brush.

Because he could tell that it was actually a high-grade ancient treasure, and one specifically used for making talismans.

This was incredible. You had to know that, until now, Wu Fan had been using ordinary spirit-grade talisman brushes. The reason was simple: in today's cultivation world, no one would use a large number of rare treasures to refine a talisman brush that couldn't be used for combat. Moreover, the method of refining high-level spirit talisman brushes had long been lost in the Northern Dipper Domain.

Wu Fan had previously thought that he would participate in a few more auctions in the Eastern Jin Domain when he had time, hoping to be lucky enough to bid for a better talisman brush, so that his success rate in making talismans would be higher in the future. He never expected to encounter one here today.

You should know that things like talisman brushes, like pill furnaces and flying treasures, are extremely special magical treasures, and their value is far higher than treasures of the same rank.

However, although Wu Fan coveted this treasure, he didn't lose his composure this time. After a quick glance, he moved his gaze away expressionlessly.

"Indeed, such talents are rare. But Fellow Daoist Wu, how should we divide these things?"

Madam Yan had also finished scanning the room at this time, and turned her head to ask.

"The jade slips should contain the talisman-making methods. We can each make a copy. As for the talismans, let's divide them equally."

Wu Fan stroked his chin and said calmly.

"What about the spirit talisman brush? This treasure is an ancient treasure. Fellow Daoist Wu should know its value, right?"

Madam Yan frowned, her expression solemn.

"This…! Let's see what those finished talismans are first!"

Wu Fan said after a slight hesitation. Then he lifted his leg and came to the table, picking up a talisman to look at.

But before he left, he secretly glanced at the woman and found that there was no greed on her face. Obviously, she didn't know anything about talisman-making, which reassured him a lot.

Madam Yan glanced at Wu Fan's back, then got up and came over.

"This should be the 'Nine Heavens Thunder Flare Talisman'. Oh, could this talisman be the legendary 'Profound Nether Ice Fiend Talisman'? And this one, if I'm not mistaken, should be the 'Profound Turtle Mountain Suppressing Talisman'. And this one must be the 'Void Piercing Bright Eye Talisman'… What is this? It should be some kind of escape talisman. Looking at the spiritual energy fluctuations on it, it's definitely no less than a top-grade high-level talisman…!"

The more Wu Fan looked, the more surprised he became. An exaggerated expression appeared on his face, and he deliberately raised his voice, as if he had seen a heavenly object.

This scene also made Madam Yan interested. She hurriedly leaned over and stared with wide eyes, her face showing a greedy look.

Although she didn't recognize these talismans, she had seen introductions in the classics. When she heard that they were these kinds of talismans, she naturally became eager.

"It seems that that predecessor was really a powerful talisman maker. A full twelve top-grade talismans, this is a considerable fortune. Moreover, each has its own exquisite features. If used well, it's not impossible to save our lives."

Driven by Wu Fan's emotions, Madam Yan also cheered excitedly.

"Yes, it's really rare. You can't even buy them in today's cultivation world. How about this? Let's count these twelve talismans as one share, and the spirit talisman brush and talisman paper as one share. I wonder which one the fairy wants?"

Wu Fan first sighed to the sky with extreme emotion, deliberately clenching the talisman in his hand, and then said something that stunned Madam Yan!

"Hmm? Could it be that Brother Wu is also interested in talisman-making?"

Madam Yan was naturally not a fool. After a turn of her eyes, she immediately realized what was going on. Her face darkened and she said something out of the blue.

"Hehe, I have some research!"

Seeing this, Wu Fan smiled sheepishly, feeling a little embarrassed. Then he simply stopped pretending, threw the talisman back on the table, and turned to look.

This woman was really difficult to deal with. She actually guessed his little trick so quickly. He thought she would choose the talismans on a whim.

That's right, he was deliberately luring her to choose the talismans, so that the spirit talisman brush would fall into his hands.

But then again, these talismans were indeed extremely rare. For example, the Nine Heavens Thunder Flare Talisman was an extremely powerful Heavenly Thunder attack technique, said to be even more terrifying than the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation.

The Profound Turtle Mountain Suppressing Talisman was also not simple. It was a super-powerful earth-attribute defense talisman, capable of blocking several full-strength attacks from Great Cultivators.

Even the Void Piercing Bright Eye Talisman was very magical. It was said to be able to break illusions and reveal the truth, which was not comparable to ordinary spiritual eye supernatural powers.

However, although these things were also very important to Wu Fan, they were not indispensable. It could even be said that they were dispensable.

After all, he had the Heavenly Astral Spirit Severing Sword, Sky Piercing Staff and other magic weapons, and he didn't lack attack methods. The same was true for defense methods. He had cultivated the Heavenly Demon Overlord Body Art for hundreds of years, and his physical defense was also very strong. As for spiritual eye supernatural powers, there was no need to mention them.

Moreover, with his talisman-making attainments, as long as he obtained the refining methods in those jade slips, it would not be difficult to make these talismans, so he didn't care.

But then again, there were a full twelve finished talismans here. The combined value was definitely greater than the spirit talisman brush for Madam Yan. After all, this was something that could save her life in an emergency, while the spirit talisman brush was not very useful to her.

Now, the only thing to fear was that this woman would want the spirit talisman brush for the sake of her sect.

But his worries were unnecessary.

"Alright then, the spirit talisman brush is yours!"

Madam Yan rolled her eyes and said unhappily.

This made Wu Fan overjoyed, and he solemnly put it away.

After that, the two got up and walked out, coming to the last room on the second floor.

However, as soon as they entered the room, they were collectively disappointed.

Because the room was empty, with nothing left behind.

However, the two could tell that this room was definitely a spirit insect room, because there were obvious traces of spirit insects gnawing on the walls.

Although the two were a little disappointed, there was nothing they could do. After looking at each other, they walked towards the third floor together.
