Chapter 1248: Fighting Over Talismans

Before he could respond, Lin Jingya added, “My Qingling Palace also wishes for the same thing. Also... We are willing to foster a stronger relationship with your Essence Ping World if you are willing to craft the talisman for us.”

It was just a rank six talisman... Even if it was a special talisman which was comparable to a rank seven talisman in terms of complexity, Shang Xia didn’t understand why 2 great powers of the Essence Xing World would spare no expense to get them.

One had to know that he hadn’t even named his price!

What the hell is happening?!

Is there something the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman can do that I don’t know about? What does it really concern...?

Also... For the Wanyun Association to be targeted by the Dachen Dynasty... Was it really only because they were interested in strengthening themselves?

Shang Xia knew that the situation in the Essence Xing World was a lot more complicated than he imagined, and what was happening might very possibly be the fuse that would blow the Essence Xing World apart.

Interesting... This is really interesting...

However, Shang Xia had to suppress the mocking smile that was going to spread across his face and he continued indifferently, “Do you guys really believe that the Wanyun Association would impart the full inheritance to me without some assurances?”

They seemed to have anticipated his response and True Immortal Zhang Mingjie spoke with a straight face, “Regardless if it’s an oath or an agreement... There are bound to be ways around it. If push comes to shove, we’ll just use the most primitive method... If the people you made the oath to don\'t exist anymore...”

Shang Xia chuckled in a hoarse voice while shaking his head.

True Immortal Lin Jingya snorted coldly at Zhang Mingjie’s blunt revelation, but she continued in a serious voice, “Our Qingling Palace is willing to pay double what the Wanyun Association paid. You can freely choose the treasures you wish to obtain once you craft the talisman!”

The Qingling Palace was still the Wanyun Association’s alliance mate in name, but they were still lusting after the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman. However, rather than proposing to wipe out the Wanyun Association, they still preferred to tempt Shang Xia into creating it somehow.

Shang Xia would be lying if he said that he wasn’t tempted by their conditions.

However, he thought about it for a moment and decided to stick to his morals a little and he shook his head and sighed, “I don’t think you should waste your time with me...”

Pausing slightly, he coughed softly and his tone changed. “Of course, even though I don’t know much about the situation in your Essence Xing World, I would like to ask... Why don’t you guys work with the Wanyun Association?”

After thinking about it, he decided not to reject them completely even though he still wished to retain a portion of his morals. He was unwilling to give up a chance to learn more about the Essence Xing World, and he dropped them a pretty big hint of what he desired.

He didn’t know if they understood what he meant, but they no longer harped on the topic of the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman after what he said. However... For them to meet a rank six Talisman Grandmaster like Shang Xia... Even if they couldn’t get their hands on the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman, they wouldn’t leave empty-handed!

This time, the True Immortal of the Qingling Palace was the first to speak. “Other than the Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman, is it possible for my Qingling Palace to commission other talismans?”

Zhang Mingjie interjected before Shang Xia could respond. “My Dachen Dynasty also hopes that we can get some high-level talismans!”

Shang Xia wanted to agree immediately, but he suddenly thought of something and asked, “How many would you need?”

“As many as possible! We will never complain of having too many!” Lin Jingya replied instantly.

Glancing at Lin Jingya who had a cold sneer on her face, Zhang Mingjie chuckled suddenly, “My Dachen Dynasty only requires rank six talismans.”

From how they were acting, they weren’t there to commission any special talismans at all. They seemed to be stocking up their reserves...

That would mean...

Why would great powers like those need to stock up on talismans?!

A single thought flashed in Shang Xia’s mind, clearing up any confusion he felt.

They are preparing for war!

Nodding slowly, Shang Xia muttered, “As long as you don’t need Myriad Tinted Cloud Talisman, and you won’t affect my cultivation, I’m prepared to make the same offer to you. 3 talisman paper for 1 talisman. If you need talismans I have never created before, the price will increase accordingly.”

Zhang Mingjie looked at Shang Xia and burst out laughing before glancing at Lin Jingya on the other side. “What a nice guy! This is actually a great deal...”

Before he could finish, Shang Xia waved his hand and interrupted, “Wait. I’m not done. That’s the general method we’ll be conducting our business, but I hope that during the process, you can bring over more talisman paper or spiritual treasures of equivalent value. As long as they are worth the same number of talisman paper, it’s fine.”

Lin Jingya’s frosty voice rang through the air again. “True Immortal Shang, do you have any needs or requirements right now?”

After pondering for a moment, he brought out 2 lists he prepared. “There are 24 high-level treasures listed here and they can replace talisman paper to a certain extent. Please, take a look.”

Of the 24 spiritual treasures, 8 were of the sixth rank and the others were of the fifth.

Shang Xia had run through those spiritual treasures with Shen Chongshan before, and they were pretty much spiritual treasures that had different names but possessed the same properties as treasures of the Spirit Luxuriant World.

Naturally, he listed Golden Crow Blood and Emperor Flow Liquid among the treasures he wanted as they could be used to craft Three Lights Water!

Be it Zhang Mingjie or Lin Jingya, they kept the list with solemn expressions on their faces.

After a period of silence, Lin Jingya finally asked again, “If we commission talismans at the same time, will you prioritize one side over the other?”

Shang Xia thought for a moment before giving his response. “I’ll craft 6 rank six talismans in half a year and alternate between both sides.”

With his current abilities, crafting 6 rank six talismans in half a year was just too easy.

The reason he mentioned that he needed such a long time was because he wanted to ensure he would have enough time to cultivate while also factoring in some time in case of any troubles when crafting talismans.

After they left, Shang Xia sat in place, deep in thought.

No one knew when, but Hai Yuanyuan approached him cautiously. When she finally got too close, Shang Xia turned and stared at her with a smile on his face. “What’s the matter? How do you feel after seeing other True Immortals?”

“I can’t see their faces clearly at all! I didn’t dare to look in their eyes either...” Hai Yuanyuan pressed her lips together and pouted.

Bursting into laughter, Shang Xia stroked her head. “Smart. However... You better not try something like that again when meeting True Immortals unless you become one yourself.”

Hai Yuanyuan wasn’t satisfied and she mumbled at the side, “But... But... I’m about to reach the Five Element Realm!”

Essence Realm, Yin Yang Realm, Triple Command Realm, Four Constellation Realm, Five Element Realm, Six Direction Realm...

Those were the classifications of Shang Xia’s cultivation that had only been spread among the Tongyou Institution, but many people simply called it according to the mainstream name.

In the Tongyou Institution, there was only Shang Xia and Hai Yuanyuan, the uncle niece duo, who walked the path from the very beginning.

Shang Xia seemed to have heard the hidden meaning in her words and he turned to stare at her. “Oh? Is the Five Element Teleportation Formation finally about to be deployed here?”
