Lin Ming coughed dryly and replied calmly: "This junior is just trying. Whether he succeeds or not depends on whether he has the talent in this area."
"Haha, you are quite optimistic. It seems that you have just learned the art of divine literature, and you haven't even started to learn it yet?"
The old soul clan man stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"Hmm..." Lin Ming nodded dejectedly. For an old monster like the old soul clan man who has been immersed in the divine arts for hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years, he can tell at a glance whether a person has just learned the divine arts.
Being able to see a person with the same degree of accuracy is entirely a matter of intuition.
What's more, when Lin Ming bought broken jade a few days ago, he didn't know anything about the materials provided by the soul clan old man. If he said that he was an apprentice of a divine scripter, it would be too false.
"Have perseverance! Have perseverance!" The old soul clan man was "praising" Lin Ming again. Of course, this kind of so-called "perseverance" and "remarkable spirit" praise is actually just one step away from overestimating one's own abilities and being whimsical.
But looking at the old man smiling like Maitreya Buddha, it's hard to tell whether he meant the former or the latter.
"Hua Shu, you are really extravagant to buy these materials." The old soul clan man picked up the list and looked at it one by one, exclaiming, "You are so rich. You have to go through so much trouble when you first learn the divine arts. What a rich second generation!
You must have relatives of Tianzun at home..."
"Uh..." Lin Ming was speechless and simply didn't answer.
"I said... do you want me to accept you as my apprentice?" The old man from the soul tribe suddenly moved his eyes and said this.
Lin Ming was so distracted, could such a good thing happen?
Although it is said that he does not need anyone to teach him, it is very prudent for a divine script master to accept a disciple. If a sixth-grade divine script master said that he wanted to recruit a disciple, I don’t know how many people would rush to sign up, even if
Just being a named disciple is a great honor.
It's a pity that the more advanced the divine script master is, the higher their requirements for apprentices are. A divine script master can only have four or five disciples. It's not easy to become their disciple!
Now, this old man from the soul clan actually wants to accept Lin Ming as his apprentice, which makes Lin Ming even more surprised. "Does this old man think that I am gifted in the divine arts, so he has the idea of accepting me as a disciple?"
Lin Ming felt that if he learned the divine arts, not counting the Rubik's Cube, a heaven-defying cheating tool, he would only be commendable in terms of soul and understanding. However, for the soul clan, strong soul power is the basic condition. This is not Lin Ming's at all.
Advantages.
Lin Ming was wondering. The next words of the soul clan old man immediately made Lin Ming choke. What he said was: "Be my disciple and give me this amount every month. Of course, if it is materials of equal value, then
That’s even better!”
The old soul clan man said, extending his palms and making a "five" gesture.
"..."
Lin Ming wanted to curse, but it turned out that he only accepted disciples to collect tuition fees.
"This old fox, I wonder how he can be so good." Xiao Moxian said using his true energy voice transmission. Lin Ming also responded with a wry smile: "It seems that I overthought it at the beginning. I was really too naive."
"Hmph, this old man is so stingy. I'm afraid his own apprentices won't be willing to teach him. How can he teach strangers? I guess whoever becomes his apprentice will be unlucky."
The little Moxian said slanderously that the divine writers were all very careful with their broomsticks, but there were degrees of self-preservation. The little Moxian had a premonition that this old man would be tortured to death.
Seeing that the old soul clan man's hand was still standing there, Lin Ming had no choice but to ask lazily, "You don't want 500 million a month, do you? You are too shady!"
"Smart. He is indeed a disciple from a big family. He is courageous. You have to spend 500 million to buy these materials. If I teach you, the effect will definitely be better."
The old man from the soul clan had a mysterious look when he spoke. He also gave Lin Ming a booklet, "This is the "Secret Book of Divine Wen Shu" written by me. I'll give it to you to read. It's free!"
Lin Ming hesitated for a moment, but still accepted it without any hope. Will the free stuff be good?
However, looking at the "Secret Book of Divine Wen Shu", which is very thick, I can't just make up the whole book. There may be some trivial content.
Seeing that Lin Ming had accepted the "Secret Code of Divine Literature and Art", the old soul clan man chuckled and said: "I guess you will change your mind in a few months, come back to me then, I tell you, like
You are a human being, and your talent is not too outstanding. If you are not an enlightened person like me, ordinary divine writers may not be willing to accept it. Even if you are an old man, I am a nice person..."
The old man from the soul clan was talking to himself, and the little demon fairy couldn't listen anymore, "Hey, how do you talk? You can see our talents!"
"Hehe, I've already guessed it. You don't even know what I do, old man."
The old soul clan man touched his beard with a sense of superiority, "If you change your mind, remember to come to me. My surname is Xue. If you ask for Master Xue, you can find me!"
"By the way... aren't you short of money?" Lin Ming suddenly remembered this and asked. Before, Old Man Xue always used barter to sell things.
"Well, I have been doing some things recently and my money is a bit tight. And didn't I tell you that it is best to have materials, such as vitality runes and Jiuyang jade? Who do you think would be dissatisfied with too much money?"
The old soul clan man raised his eyebrows as he spoke, and rubbed the index finger and thumb of his right hand in front of Lin Ming's eyes, making a gesture of counting the vitality runes.
This was really getting worse and worse. Xiao Moxian resisted the urge to hit someone, and was pulled out of the Divine Script Masters Guild by Lin Ming. The materials they needed had been purchased, and there was no need to continue wrangling here.
Five hundred million vitality runes, and the materials purchased piled up like a mountain.
These days, Lin Ming was spending money like water, spending a lot of vitality runes, so that Lin Ming's property was shrinking.
Divine script masters and alchemists are indeed expensive professions. The low-level materials alone are not cheap. As the level increases, the materials will only become more and more expensive, so that although the divine script masters and alchemists can make a lot of wealth,
However, there is always a feeling that wealth is not enough, and this phenomenon is especially true for divine writers in their growing stage.
As for those divine script masters whose cultivation has been finalized, most of them are relatively well-off financially, because they spend much less money on cultivation. Unless they make some big moves, they generally won't be short of money.
"I have to find some ways to earn resources. Otherwise, as I pave the way for the Nine Stars of Dao Palace in the future, the expenses will only increase, and I will be completely destitute by then."
With this thought in mind, Lin Ming and Little Demon Fairy came to a divine writing firm.
"Two guests, what are your orders?"
A tender girl greeted Lin Ming and Little Demon Fairy.
"I want to rent a room that combines alchemy and spirituality with a one-year lease."
Generally, alchemists and divine literature rooms have their own dedicated alchemy rooms and divine literature rooms. Various formations will be blessed in the rooms to improve the effects and success rates of alchemy and divine literature.
There is no such facility in the Hunyuan Heavenly Palace. It would be time-consuming and labor-intensive for Lin Ming to build it by himself. He also has to explore and learn, so renting a room is most suitable.
"What kind of room does the guest want? There are the best Tianzihao rooms, the better Dizihao rooms, Xuanzihao rooms, and the most common flowing water rooms."
"An ordinary one will do." Lin Ming said casually. He didn't lack the money to rent a room, but he was just learning alchemy and inscription skills now, so it would be better not to rely too much on external objects. The worse the environment, the better he would be.
Exercise techniques.
"Okay, guest, please come with me."
The girl took Lin Ming to an ancient stone room.
The stone chamber is only three to four feet square. There are several simple formations inside that are used to increase the intensity of the flames and increase the warrior's perception. There is also a simple furnace for refining medicine, and a bluestone divine writing platform.
Here, Lin Ming will spend a whole year. He can use time enchantment to absorb the memory of the divine inscription master, but he cannot use it to practice divine inscriptions and alchemy, because both divine inscriptions and alchemy need to be followed.
The laws of the outside world communicate, and the time barrier will distort the laws.
Lin Ming thought for a while, but did not immediately start refining the medicine inscriptions. Instead, he took out the "Secret Code of Divine Inscriptions" written by Old Man Xue. After all, such a thick book should have some information, and Old Man Xue
He is also a person with status and reputation. Even if he is stingy, he will not write a bad book of no value and ruin his reputation, right?
With this thought in mind, Lin Ming opened the "Secret Code of Divine Arts". However, he soon discovered that he was naive again. He had seriously overestimated the bottom line of Old Man Xue's moral integrity.
The front of this "Secret Book of Divine Wen Shu" does involve some practical knowledge and skills. However, these knowledge and skills become blank every time they get to the key points!
Then Mr. Xue will start talking about the next knowledge and skills, and then when he talks about the key points, it becomes blank again.
After so many repetitions, the last book had no content at all, and it was all about things that made people want to eat. So after Lin Ming closed the book, he finally couldn't help but uttered a curse word. "I've seen bad things before, but I've never seen such bad things."
of!"
"This old man is like a wild goose plucking his hair. If you want to take advantage of him, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky." Xiao Moxian can be said to have experienced this.
"He is sure that I can't learn divine arts, and wants me to give him money. It seems that he is really short of money recently, but he just doesn't know what to do, or maybe he is just profit-seeking.
"
Lin Ming shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He took out the sacred writing pen on the bluestone sacred writing table, and poured the energy from his body into the pen. At that moment, a long-lost feeling came to his heart.
This feeling was extremely familiar to Lin Ming, and it also moved him a little.
After an unknown number of years, he finally picked up his long-wasted inscription technique again!
The days when he was an inscription master were a very important stage in Lin Ming's martial arts journey. The inscription technique accompanied him through the most difficult years when he first learned martial arts.
He was even glad now that he had regained the inscription technique because of the Nine Stars of Dao Palace. This feeling was like reliving the memories of his youth. In those years, Lin Ming completed the most important transformation in his life. He would never be able to
