Chapter 693 -420 Three acquaintances_1
“The legend of the Purple Lightning and Qingshuang is well known. If you become the master of the Purple Electric Sword, wouldn’t that make you a perfect match with Teacher Pei Qingshuang?”
Yan Feng said with surprise. In the eyes of the cultivators, the Purple Lightning and Qingshuang were definitely a pair.
“Ah, let’s not mention that again. It’s one thing for me as a man, but Senior Pei is pure and unblemished. If we spread this rumor, wouldn’t it harm her reputation?”
Chen Mobai was always considerate of the reputation of women. He immediately set his attitude straight when he saw hints of such gossip appearing.
“I admire your noble character, Brother Chen.”
Yan Feng couldn’t help but show respect after hearing his words.
...
The information within the cultivators’ circle was quite transparent. Anyone with a mind to search could find out about Pei Qingshuang’s background.
Even when there was a chance that he might possess the Purple Electric Sword, Chen Mobai respectfully distanced himself from her. This made Yan Feng, who already held him in high regard, admire him even more.
“Most of the last few rounds of our generation’s entrance exam takers have reached the Foundation Establishment.”
The two began to talk about the past.
Their generation was considered to be one of the golden periods in the history of Red Sandstone City. Among the students who graduated, Chen Mobai, Qing Women, Yan Feng, Gong Xiangyu, Shi Yuanqing, and Cao Yaling have successfully reached Foundation Establishment.
Among them, Chen Mobai and Qing Women are Daoist seeds of the Daoist Academy and are basically considered to have no obstacles to Core Formation.
Besides these six, there are two more Different Spiritual Root geniuses, Kong Feichen and Yang Jing, who have already been dismissed by the cultivators.
The last time Red Sandstone City had such outstanding students was a hundred years ago during the era of the Red Robed truth seeker Yu Tianguang.
If Chen Mobai and Qing Women can reach Core Formation, then the value of their class will instantly surpass that of the Red Robed truth seeker’s era, making them the best class in Red Sandstone City over the past thousand years.
A thousand years ago, Red Sandstone City produced a Gold Core Perfection cultivator named Yan Canzhang. Although he failed in his Transforming Infant, he was still hailed as the most outstanding cultivator since the establishment of this blessed land, Red Sandstone City.
This Yan Canzhang was Yan Feng’s ancestor and also a graduate of the Mountain Sea Academy.
Yan Feng coming here was also seen as following the path of his ancestors.
“So that’s why you had the Heaven Heart Sword Talisman.”
Chen Mobai showed a flash of realization on his face after talking about Yan Canzhang with Yan Feng.
“In fact, before my ancestor passed away, he left behind hundreds of Heaven Heart Sword Talismans. After I used that one, there are still more than a dozen in my family. However, to sell at a higher price, we declared to the outside that they were all the last ones.”
Yan Feng laughed as he spoke of this.
In the cultivators’ circle, the inheritance is orderly. Before the powerful cultivators pass away, they usually leave enough wealth for their descendants to cultivate for several generations.
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.
For instance, the ancestor Zhongli left behind a furnace of Liquid Gold Jade Return Pill, a dose of Infant-Transforming Elixir. If their descendants were promising, every generation could reach the Nascent Soul stage, enough to sustain the lineage for ten thousand years.
Although Yan Canzhang was just a Gold Core cultivator, he was still considered a master talisman maker of the Rank-4.
The Heaven Heart Sword Talisman was his masterpiece.
Before he passed away, despite having almost emptied his wealth for longevity, he still possessed the skill to draw talismans.
A hundred Heaven Heart Sword Talismans were the wealth he left for his descendants.
As one of the few “ungraded” talisman designs within the cultivators’ circle, a Heaven Heart Sword Talisman could be exchanged for a complete set of three treasures for Foundation Establishment.
Because of this, every generation of the Yan family has had a True Cultivator who has reached Foundation Establishment since Yan Canzhang passed away a thousand years ago.
“Since the Heaven Heart Sword Talisman is so precious, why haven’t the Yan family descendants tried to draw it on their own?”
Chen Mobai was a commoner in Red Sandstone City before, so he didn’t know of the Yan family’s power. No wonder Yan Feng was considered the top contender during the entrance exams.
Everyone expected him to be able to enter the four great Daoist Academies.
Upon hearing Chen Mobai’s words, Yan Feng gave a bitter smile, shook his head and said, “Although the Heaven Heart Sword Talisman is ungraded, the difficulty of drawing it is almost the same as that of a Rank-3 top-grade talisman. Although the Yan family has produced Rank-3 Talisman Makers, the success rate of drawing this talisman is less than one percent.”
“Moreover, to draw this talisman, one needs Rank-3 Azure Sky Talisman Paper and Flying Rainbow Ink Talisman.”
“The Azure Sky Talisman Paper’s raw material is the pulp of a Rank-3 Azure Jadeite Sycamore Tree, while the Flying Rainbow Ink Talisman’s raw material is Rank-3 Ling Sha. My Yan family could afford to buy and produce them at our peak but now I’m afraid there’s no factory producing this talisman paper and talisman ink in the whole cultivator’s world.”
The Heaven Heart Sword Talisman was a masterpiece completed by Yan Canzhang and another Rank-4 Talisman Maker from the Heavenly Book Academy. Hence, the method of drawing this talisman exists in the libraries of both academies. Of course, the Yan family must have Yan Canzhang’s personal notes on drawing the talisman.
Despite this, over the past thousand years, no cultivator in the Yan family has come to fully master the Heaven Heart Sword Talisman.
“I see…”
Listening to Yan Feng’s exposition, Chen Mobai nodded in understanding. He immediately took out his smartphone and searched for information about the Heaven Heart Sword Talisman on the Talisman Maker Association forum.
Soon, a complete set of data and video tutorials on how to blend the talisman paper and ink and the drawing method of the Heaven Heart Sword Talisman appeared.
The president of the Talisman Maker Association is the principal of the Heavenly Book Academy and the only Rank-5 Talisman maker, Yu Yi.
Therefore, it’s perfectly normal for the Talisman Maker Association to have complete information on this talisman.
There were many posts related to the Heaven Heart Sword Talisman on the forum, documenting the various difficulties encountered when drawing this talisman.
Talisman paper and ink of Rank-3 and above were basically custom-made.
