Chapter 365: Rank Three Talisman Ink, Endless Red

A wave of disappointment filled Shang Xia’s heart when his question was ignored, but he didn’t bother pressing for an answer.

Seeing how four of the seven cases were already gone, everyone could tell how desirable those items were.

That was also how Shang Xia discovered how well-received items from the White Deer Paradise were.

One had to know that one would be able to obtain an item like that as long as they were a direct disciple from the White Deer Paradise. That would mean that the White Deer Paradise had a way to mass produce them.

That might be true for the White Deer Paradise, but obtaining one in the outside world wasn’t so easy.

Many people might want to trade with Shang Xia, but they didn’t have what he wanted. As such, there was nothing much they could do about it.

Voice transmissions entered Shang Xia’s mind non-stop as many people asked if he was willing to take other items of equal value.

Ignoring all of them, Shang Xia paused for a second to wait for any more offers. Seeing as no one was able to bring out rank three talisman paper, he kept his cases and returned to his seat.

When he returned, another transmission entered his ear. “Are you really a talisman master? I have a bottle of rank three talisman ink with me. Do you want it?”

Shang Xia’s expression froze and he turned to look around him. He saw the black masked man nodding slightly in his direction.

Shang Xia found it slightly weird. One had to know that he obtained the Flying Goose Brush from the man earlier. Since the start of the gathering, he brought out a Heart Directing Grass, the Flying Goose Brush, and now, he seemed to be in possession of some rank three talisman ink. He could be considered one of the most active traders in the gathering!

Shang Xia hesitated for a moment before sending a voice transmission of his own. “What type of talisman ink do you have? How much of it do you wish to trade?”

As a rank three talisman master, Shang Xia would be able to tell the slight difference between the quality of talisman paper and talisman ink of the sank rank. There would be differences when using different types of talisman ink on different talisman paper. For example, he obtained two pieces of beast skin that could be considered talisman paper from his trades earlier. The skin came from water-attributed beasts, and if he used water-attributed ink to craft talismans on them, the talisman created would possess stronger effects. It would also be easier to successfully create a rank three talisman.

The metal sheet he obtained from the fatty earlier also had its advantages. If he used it to craft sword talismans or spear talismans, the effects would be much stronger than ordinary talisman paper.

After hearing Shang Xia’s question, the black masked man was basically sure that Shang Xia was a rank three talisman master. He chuckled softly in response. “I have a batch of ‘Endless Red’ ink. Feel free to raise any sort of trade. I believe that you won’t try to scam me.”

When he was done, he waved his hand and tossed over a small bottle that was three inches tall towards Shang Xia. Their actions didn’t really catch the attention of the others in the hall and Shang Xia opened the bottle to inspect its contents after receiving it.

The stench of blood assaulted his nose the moment he opened the bottle. If one allowed the smell to linger for long, they might lose control of their qi. That greatly tested the skills of the talisman master when crafting talismans. They had to be extremely careful when using the ink and every stroke might take them some time as they had to calm themselves down after every movement.

However, that didn’t mean that the ink was useless. It could boost the offensive abilities of the talisman when it was completed!

With the effects of the ink, the talisman would be able to last a little longer than other rank three talismans even if they weren’t kept properly.

Shang Xia was truly tempted to obtain the bottle of talisman ink. One had to know that when he crafted the two talismans back in the Changfeng City, he was using rank two talisman ink!

It wasn’t impossible to craft rank three talismans with rank two ink, but the effects would be a little weaker than rank three talismans made with rank three ink.

Holding the bottle in his hand, Shang Xia didn’t return it immediately. Instead, he sent another voice transmission over. “The bottle of ink is of great quality, but it’s slightly lacking in quantity, don’t you think? According to my estimations, even if I don’t waste any, I should only be able to craft five talismans out of these. I am willing to trade it for two spiritual deer cases I brought out earlier. What do you think?”

A happy chuckle made its way into Shang Xia’s ears. “Sounds good to me!”

Tossing out two cases, Shang Xia asked another question. “Do you have the recipe to create this ink? I am willing to pay a high price to obtain it.”

“I’m sorry, I do not.” The black masked man kept the cases carefully while replying to Shang Xia.

Shang Xia couldn’t help but feel a little regretful after hearing his response. However, there was nothing he could do about it as his attention returned to the center table.

More than half of the Martial Intent Realm cultivators in the hall had gone up by the time Shang Xia completed his trade. As the others made their way up, Shang Xia felt that there was nothing more they could bring out that could catch the attention of the others present. Surprisingly, he was proved wrong almost immediately. Someone brought out a set of rank three advancement medicine, and another took out a rank three martial art. There was also a rank four spiritual herb that appeared. The gathering was pushed to a whole new climax.

The rank three martial art wasn’t comparable to the rest, but the advancement medicine was clearly the highlight of the gathering. The situation in the hall nearly turned chaotic when it was introduced.

The cultivator who obtained it stood up and bade his farewell immediately. With Zhao Fengchun’s arrangements, he disappeared from an unknown entrance.

When the rank four spiritual herb appeared, a tense air filled the hall as several experts got to their feet in excitement. Zhao Fengchun couldn’t sit still. He felt that he was about to lose control of the situation despite being the organizer of the gathering.

Fortunately, Huo Wuji and Wu Tingfang had the support of the Tongyou Institution and they bought the rank four spiritual herb immediately, causing the tense bidding war that was almost certain to happen to die before it could start. No one could be sure what would happen if everyone in the hall started to bid for the rank four spiritual herb and it was extremely likely the harmonious atmosphere in the hall would be destroyed by a huge battle. After all, everyone present could use a rank four spiritual herb.

With no one else to present their items, the gathering drew to a close as Zhao Fengchun arranged for everyone to leave the hall.

After they left, the three of them felt a sense of loss despite obtaining several treasures. Regardless, the gathering was over and even if they were regretting not bidding on several more items, there was nothing they could do about it.

Before they bade each other farewell, Sun Haiwei asked, “The battlefield between the two worlds is about to reopen and a massive war is almost certain to break out. I am planning to use it as a chance to temper myself to try to complete my third divine sense transformation. I wonder what your plans are?”

Tian Mengzi gasped in shock. “Are you going to complete your third divine sense transformation already? Oh man, I just obtained the Sunset Willow Spirit Awakening Needle and will try to complete my second transformation. Who would have thought that you’re going to leave me in the dust…”

Sun Haiwei chuckled softly and continued, “That’s what I plan to do. It’s not certain that I will succeed…”

“I wonder how the institution plans to retake their territory in the battlefield between the two worlds. If I manage to complete my divine sense transformation before they reopen the spatial tunnel, I wish to join the first batch of cultivators to enter…”

After they spoke, they turned to look at Shang Xia.

Even though they had hung out for an entire day, they had no idea which stage of cultivation Shang Xia had reached.

Shang Xia laughed happily. “I’ll definitely join the first batch to enter the battlefield between the two worlds!”
