Chapter 88 Accepting the Test

Seeing the Talisman Makers coming onto the stage with great momentum, everyone in the audience thought they were in for a good show.

They all cheered up and stared at the round platform motionless.

But there was no movement for so long, and the monks who were waiting to see the excitement were not happy.

"This group of people weren't very powerful just now, but now they have turned into sculptures and are motionless."

"Tell me, is it the pretty boy on the stage who drew some kind of frozen talisman that froze these grandsons?"

"Pfft!"

"Ha ha!"

This interesting conjecture made the monk next to him laugh.

However, there is no such possibility, because as early as when he came to power, Xu Feng explained that the talisman called the Wind Blade Talisman was not a freezing talisman or the like.

Of course, there were also those smart people who judged from the talisman makers who stood stunned on the spot that this talisman seal should be very famous.

At this time, on the stage, the Talisman Makers who had been watching the tray for half a quarter of an hour finally moved.

As if they had agreed upon it, they first bowed to the tray, then walked to Xu Feng and bowed deeply, and finally walked off the platform one by one.

This behavior of many people worshiping one person at the same time shocked the monks under the stage.

Because monks also pay attention to the etiquette among monks.

Generally speaking, as long as the other party's cultivation level is not higher than yours, which is the third level of cultivation level, they usually bow their hands to each other and call each other Taoist friends.

Even if the other person is one level higher than you in cultivation, then when you see him, just clasp his fists and bow slightly to salute.

As for those who bow down to the end, it is basically impossible for them to appear in the same realm, unless the other party is your parents, then that is another matter.

But now everyone can clearly see Xu Feng's exposed cultivation level, which is only the fifth level of Qi Refining.

That means the reason why these Talisman Makers bow to him is not because of their cultivation.

Then there is only one possibility left, which is the talisman placed in the tray.

This caused the monks in the hall to stand up one after another, preparing to see what kind of talisman it was, which made so many talisman makers willing to bow down.

However, because they were not Talisman Makers, they did not dare to rush onto the stage.

I just hope that the auction will start soon so that I can get involved.

But Xu Feng was not in a hurry to start. When the talisman makers saluted him, he did not remain indifferent and also bowed his hands.

After all the Talisman Makers were sent off the stage, he was ready to announce the start of the auction.

At this moment, a powerful voice suddenly came from a room on the second floor.

"Wait a minute, I am also very interested in this talisman. I wonder if I can have a look at it, little friend?"

"It's all right, senior, please."

Facing the room on the second floor where the noise came from, Xu Feng clasped his fists in the distance.

At the same time, he felt happy because the reason why he did so many things was for this moment.

It turns out that the person sitting in the room where the sound came from just now is a first-level high-grade talisman maker who searches for his successor every year and wants to entrust his mantle.

When Mr. Liang asked him to auction the talismans just now, he already understood it and made a rough plan.

This is what happened when he deliberately provoked the Talisman Maker after he came to power.

His ultimate goal is to attract the attention of the Talisman Maker, which is much more effective than participating in a Talisman Making Competition.

"Okay, then I'll come and take a look."

The sound was still on the second floor a moment ago, and in the blink of an eye, a person appeared next to the tray.

This move scared Xu Feng, who was standing on the high platform, to tremble, thinking that if this person wanted to attack me, I might not even be able to fight back.

Just because this person appeared so unexpectedly.

In fact, not only him, but also the monks in the audience were frightened.

With so many pairs of eyes watching, no one noticed how this person came down from the second floor and then to the round platform.

The visitor stared at the talisman in the tray, while Xu Feng stared at him.

I saw that this man was less than five feet tall, with a long beard reaching to his chest, piercing eyes, and wearing a purple-brown Taoist robe with talisman-like patterns embroidered on it.

The old man felt that just looking at it was not enough, so he picked up the talisman and seal from the tray and continued to observe it.

Logically speaking, this behavior is quite rude because you did not obtain the owner's consent.

However, in Xu Feng's view, the old man's entire body and mind were focused on the talisman he drew, and he could no longer sense the outside world at all.

After a long time passed, the old man came out of this state, raised his head and looked at him happily, and said:

"My little friend's skills in making talismans are so superb that I am ashamed of myself. I wonder if my little friend would like to come to my room to talk about it?"

"The seniors invited me, and the juniors are honored."

He was already happy in his heart and promised again and again.

However, the two did not leave. The old man first apologized to Zhao Rui, the weapon refiner who organized the exchange meeting.

"Old Zhao, I hope you can forgive me. I didn't intend to disrupt the exchange meeting, but..."

Before he could finish his explanation, Zhao Rui spoke and said with a smile:

"Okay, old man, what else can you be polite to me about.

It’s not like I don’t know about your situation. My long-cherished wish has come true today. It’s too late for me to be happy for you, so why should I blame you? If you don’t believe me, just ask these old guys on the second floor. "

As soon as he finished speaking, words of understanding for him came from various rooms on the second floor. The scene was touching.

But this time the old man not only planned to take Xu Feng away, but he also did not intend to keep the talisman and seal he drew.

So he took out a first-grade, top-grade Earth Escape Talisman from his storage bag as compensation, and asked a disciple to auction it on his behalf.

Originally, everyone in the audience was a little dissatisfied that the auction items that had been prepared were taken away, because this was against the rules.

But seeing so many monks on the second floor supporting the old man, and him also taking out a very precious Earth Escape Talisman, his attention was instantly diverted.

Xu Feng followed the old man to the second floor. When he passed by the door of his room, Mr. Liang happened to come out with his two daughters.

"Lao Yang, congratulations on getting what you wanted. Your mantle is finally settled."

"Haha, you are right. I am so happy today. The exchange meeting will be over later, but you are not allowed to leave. I will invite some brothers to drink. I will not come back until I get drunk."

"Okay, it's settled, but you have to have a few more drinks with me later."

"Oh? Why is this?" the old man surnamed Yang asked curiously.

Mr. Liang smiled and pulled Xu Feng over, and then said:

"Because this little friend, I brought you to the exchange meeting. Otherwise, where would you find such a good heir?"

"So you know each other?"

Yang Laoqi said.

"Not only do we know each other, we have been neighbors for more than a year."

Mr. Liang smiled.

"Okay, that being said, I should toast you two more glasses later. What, if you come out now, are you planning to go to my room with him?"

"Smart, I have this plan, but I don't know if Fellow Daoist Yang will welcome it?"

"Welcome, let's go!"

The old man surnamed Yang led the way and led them into his room.

The moment they pushed the door open and entered, the three monks inside began to stand up and salute in unison.

"I've met Master, I've met Senior Liang, I've met three fellow Taoists."

There are so many people in one room, it seems a bit crowded no matter how you look at it.

Therefore, after greeting each other, Yang Lao's three disciples were sent out of the room.

But before leaving, the three of them kept staring at Xu Feng, with dissatisfaction, awe, and jealousy in their expressions.

They all saw the scene that happened in the hall just now, and they also knew the master's intention of inviting him here at this time.

He also understood that he and others would have no chance to inherit the master's legacy.

Although they really wanted to stay and see how much this guy who was valued by the master weighed, they couldn't disobey the master's orders, so they could only leave angrily.

"Come on, little friend, if it's convenient, please show me your talisman-making skills in person."

Mr. Yang waited until his disciple left and immediately demanded impatiently.

In Xu Feng's view, this request is very reasonable, because after all, this is a matter of inheriting the mantle, and must not be careless.

Who knows whether you drew those talismans yourself or bought them at a high price? No one can be sure. Although the possibility of the latter is relatively small, it is not completely impossible.

Real gold is not afraid of fire!

Xu Feng was naturally very happy to draw it on the spot, but he looked around the room and found no suitable table to use as a talisman table. It was either too high or too short.

As a talisman master, Mr. Yang certainly understood what he meant. He just waved his hand, and a beautiful talisman table appeared.

This talisman table is made of rosewood, and the tabletop has been painted with tung paint. It looks black and shiny, and the four legs are exquisite and smooth, as if they were made in heaven.

In the upper left corner of the talisman table, there is a small incense burner, and there is an unburned Ningshen Incense beside it.

Luo Xinran was very discerning. She picked up the Ningshen incense, lit it, inserted it into the incense burner, and then stepped aside.

Xu Feng took out the talisman-making tools one by one from the storage bag, then took a deep breath, began to hold his breath and concentrate, and got rid of distracting thoughts.

Then he grabbed the talisman pen, dipped it in some spiritual ink, and began to slowly draw on the white jade talisman paper.

Just like that, half an hour passed, and he successfully drew a wind blade talisman that was also surrounded by silver light.

Mr. Yang, who was standing aside, was stunned because he didn't expect Xu Feng to draw high-quality talismans as easily as drawing ordinary talismans.

"Xu Xiaoyou, your skills in drawing talisman seals are definitely ranked first among the talisman makers I have seen in my life."

Hearing Mr. Yang's praise, Xu Feng was very happy, but he said modestly:

"Where is it? Yang Laomiu praised me so much, I am so ashamed of myself."

In this way, after exchanging a few polite words, Mr. Yang finally got to the point.

"Xiaoyou Xu, I learned to make talismans when I was eight years old, and it will be ninety years this year.

I have collected more than 60 first-grade low-grade talisman cubes, thirty first-grade medium-grade talisman cubes, and as many as 18 first-order high-grade talisman cubes.

In addition, there is also a lifetime of experience in making talismans, all recorded in this jade slip. It can be said that it contains my life's hard work. Today I will give it to you, and I hope you will cherish it. "

What the old man said made Xu Feng almost burst into tears. Just when he was about to pick it up with his hands that were so moved, a voice sounded next.

"This jade slip contains two thousand spiritual stones."

This sentence made him reach out his hand and suddenly paused.

Isn’t this too damn dark? Are you half selling and half giving away? Is this price too outrageous?

When he thought about it, half-selling and half-gifting was equivalent to a 30% discount. In that case, wouldn't the original price of this jade slip cost six to seven thousand spiritual stones? The price of the first-level inheritance is indeed a bit expensive!
