The young Taoist priest carrying the sword was overjoyed when he heard this. He took out a few talisman papers, a bottle of light yellow Dharma ink, and an earth attribute spirit stone from his arms, and handed them over.
Shi Mu placed these things on the table one by one, then took out the magic brush, spread out a piece of talisman paper, held the spirit stone in one hand, and suddenly started writing with the other hand.
As the number of light yellow runes on the talisman paper gradually increased, in less than half a quarter of an hour, a brand new golden armor talisman was completed.
Shi Mu showed a hint of relief.
The golden armor talisman can be regarded as the most popular talisman he has made during this period. Now, even if he does not use pupil power to assist, the success rate is already astonishingly high.
He handed the talisman and the remaining ink, talisman paper, and spirit stones back to the young Taoist priest who carried the sword.
"Junior Brother Shi's talisman-making skills are simply amazing. Some talisman masters in our sect sometimes waste more than a dozen materials, but they may not be able to make a talisman." The young Taoist priest took the thing and said with great joy.
"Haha, Senior Brother Qin is honored. But no matter how much you praise me, I will not charge less. The old rule is: one talisman brings two merit points." Shi Mu said a joke, took out the identity token, and put it on
On the table.
"Of course." The young Taoist priest took out his identity token and rubbed it twice. Two light spots flew out of it and merged into Shi Mu's token in a flash.
The young Taoist priest thanked him again and then walked out.
As a result, as soon as this person opened the door and walked out, another young Xuanwu Sect disciple wearing blue clothes walked in and said as he walked:
"Senior Brother Shi, you are finally back. This time I would like to trouble you to help me refine a light body charm."
Shi Mu looked through the door and found two people waiting outside, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
At the stone table on the other side of the mine, Bai Yuxiu's face became even colder when he saw this scene. After saying "dismissal", he stood up and walked back to his stone room. At the same time, a soft figure appeared in his mind.
A sinister look flashed in his eyes.
"Hmph, he was lucky this time, but he won't be so lucky next time. In a place like this, it is extremely common for an early-stage disciple to lose his life." Bai Yuxiu suddenly slapped the wood in the room with one hand.
"Table," he said fiercely.
…
More than half an hour later, Shi Mu finally finished drawing the talisman for the last person. There were already more than twenty merit points on the token. There was also a smile on his face.
As long as you survive this period of time and return to the rear alliance base camp, these merit points will be of great use.
Since the resources of the seven major sects are integrated into one place, merit points can be exchanged for many rare things, such as rare spiritual stones, some powerful magic weapons, and some precious elixirs. As long as you have enough merit points
, even the martial arts and martial arts of other sects are not impossible.
He closed the door and sat down cross-legged on the bed. He took out a small jade bottle and drank a bone-hardening pill.
Not long after, his face turned green and white, and his clothes were stirred by an invisible air current.
After a long time, Shi Mu opened his eyes, with a hint of joy on his face.
His astronomical skills have made some progress.
For more than a year, although he was ordered to fight abroad and lived a miserable life, he did not relax at all in his cultivation, and this kind of bloody battles further stimulated his potential.
With the help of the power of the elixir, he had already reached the fourth level in his Celestial Elephant Skills. In one fell swoop, he entered the realm of a mid-acquired warrior, and was not far from the fifth level.
Yun Shen Shu also successfully entered the fourth level a few months ago because of the Moon Swallowing Style.
However, since entering the fourth level, the increase in mana of the crystal moon has slowed down a lot. After spending more than a month practicing the moon-swallowing pose, the rice-sized crystals condensed can increase the mana by a small amount at most, which is no longer the case before.
That feeling of rapid progress when the crystal grains turn into the moon and the mana is doubled.
This is not surprising. The further you go in the Yun Shen Technique, the more difficult it becomes to advance.
Shi Mu estimated that even with the help of the Moon Swallowing Style, it would probably take more than two years to reach the fifth level of the Yun Shen Technique.
Shi Mu sighed softly, shook his head and chuckled to himself.
As the old saying goes, the human heart is like a snake swallowing an elephant. I was able to cultivate to my current level in less than two years after I started, which is considered extremely fast.
The moon-swallowing pose has helped me so much that it can be described as unbelievable, but I am still here and feel too slow. Human greed is indeed endless.
Shi Mu secretly reflected on himself, and his initially impetuous mood suddenly returned to calm. He closed his eyes and continued to practice.
Time passed quickly and it was night in a blink of an eye.
Everyone in the mine had worked hard all day, and except for those who were keeping watch outside, everyone else had basically rested.
Shi Mu pushed open the door and walked out. He walked lightly and quickly left the mine, appearing under the giant tree on the cliff at the entrance.
There was silence between heaven and earth outside, and a bright moon hung in the sky, exceptionally bright.
"Senior Brother Shi, are you going out again?" Behind a huge boulder near the giant tree, a disciple who was watching the night saw Shi Mu coming out and stuck his head out to say hello softly.
Shi Mu nodded to him, said nothing, and then walked lightly towards the nearby woods quietly.
Every night when there is a moon, he will definitely come outside and stay there all night. Almost everyone in this stronghold knows this.
Shi Mu explained that he was practicing a secret technique, and others did not doubt it too much. After all, some techniques did need to be practiced at night.
A quarter of an hour later, Shi Mu came to a clearing in the forest and stopped. This place was already several miles away from the stronghold.
Shi Mu briefly explored the surroundings and found nothing unusual, so he felt a little relieved.
Although as a Talisman Master, few people in the stronghold were willing to take the risk of offending him to spy on his secrets, but just in case, he would change the location every time he came out to practice.
Next, Shi Mu took out four light blue talismans from his arms, arranged them around, and recited a spell in his mouth. The four talismans lit up slightly, and then fell silent.
Seeing this, he nodded with satisfaction.
These four talismans are not ordinary talismans. They are called four-way psychic talismans. When used together, four talismans can be used to create a simple four-way psychic formation, which can detect any movement within a hundred feet.
He spent more than 100,000 taels of silver and a low-grade fire attribute spirit stone in exchange for this from a Wind and Fire Sect disciple a few months ago.
With these four talismans, he can feel at ease when he comes out to practice the Moon Swallowing Style.
After arranging the formation, Shi Mu sat down cross-legged, assumed a moon-swallowing posture, and soon entered the dreamland.
In the dream, the moon was like water. The white ape transformed by Shi Mu raised his head to look at the moon, and countless moonlight essence fell into his eyes.
…
One night passed in an instant.
As the sky turned white, Shi Mu's body moved and he woke up from his dream.
A bean-sized crystal in his mind floated slightly, emitting a faint brilliance.
After discovering that turning the moon into crystal grains did not significantly improve his mana, Shi Mu simply stopped turning into the moon and began to practice the moon-swallowing technique to make the crystal grains in his mind continue to grow larger, hoping to see if anything would happen.
Shi Mu took a long breath, stood up, turned around and walked towards the mine stronghold.
The surrounding sky gradually became brighter, and the green gauze-like mist floating in the forest in the early morning looked particularly beautiful.
Shi Mu quietly jumped over a mound, and a sound of running water came over. Not far away, there was a clear stream meandering through the lush greenery.
His face lit up. He was thirsty after practicing all night. He quickly walked to the stream and filled the water bag with water. Just as he was about to drink it, a slight splash of water came from the front.
Shi Mu's expression suddenly changed, he quickly put away the water bag, held down the iron black knife on his waist, and slowly lurked over.
He slowly poked his head out from behind a bush and finally saw the source of the sound.
Not far ahead, in a clear water pool connected to the creek, the back of a graceful girl was shrouded in the morning mist. Her long black hair spread behind her like a waterfall, spreading like misty clouds in the water, surrounding the girl.
around.
The girl's jade-white arms moved in the water, making a splashing sound.
Water drops slid into the water along the rounded arc of his shoulders, and his skin was dazzlingly white against the backdrop of the rising sun.
Shi Mu's breath tightened, and his body suddenly froze in place.
The girl in the water turned slightly, revealing the soft peaks on her chest, but at the same time Shi Mu also saw the girl's face, it was Ke'er.
Shi Mu's body trembled and he couldn't help but take a step back. He stepped on a dead branch and made a soft sound.
"who!"
Ke'er's pretty face changed in the water, and with a wave of her jade hand, a green vine flew out of the water and rolled towards Shi Mu.
Shi Mu's expression changed, and he suddenly recovered from his stiffness, turned over and jumped back.
With a "pop" sound, the green vine fell down where it originally stood, plowing a deep mark on the ground.
Shi Mu was secretly shocked. Looking at this situation, Ke'er usually hid a lot of strength.
The green vine bounced on the ground and sprang up again like a spiritual snake, continuing to pounce.
Shi Mu raised his eyebrows and pulled out the long knife from his waist. With a shake of his arm, several knife shadows appeared and wrapped around the green vines.
There was a slight flash of red fire light, and the vine was cut into several sections.
However, not only did the severed vines not die, black juice gushed out from the broken ends. The severed vines grew rapidly, and their color had turned pitch black, exuding a faint fishy smell.
Shi Mu's face was startled. He held the meteorite black sword in front of him. At the same time, he moved his free hand, and a fireball talisman appeared in his hand.
"Hey, Senior Brother Shi, it's you..."
Ke'er didn't know when she had come out of the water. She was already dressed, but her long black hair had not been combed yet and was hanging wetly behind her.
When she saw clearly that it was Shi Mu, a look of surprise appeared on her face.
(The potted bamboo at home finally died after a winter of shocking care. With great sorrow, Wangyu sent the body to the environmentally friendly barrel downstairs, hoping that it would work hard in the next life.
Have the opportunity to reincarnate into the empty flower pot at home!) (To be continued.)
