In fact, talismans were also divided into different grades. According to Uncle Nine, from the weakest to the strongest, they were divided into ordinary talismans, advanced talismans, and god-given talismans. According to their colors, they were divided into yellow talismans, purple talismans, and golden talismans.
Among them, ordinary talismans were talismans that used yellow talismans as carriers, such as Corpse Suppressing Talismans and Soul Suppressing Talismans. Their power was relatively weak, and it was difficult for them to be effective against powerful evil spirits. In movies, it was common to see powerful zombies immune to Corpse Suppressing Talismans, so ordinary talismans were usually used as support.
High-grade talismans were talismans drawn with special purple talismans, such as the Wall Passing Talisman, Invisibility Talisman, Five Ghosts Fortune Talisman, etc. They were powerful, but they were more difficult to make.
Divine Talismans were legendary talismans passed down by immortals. They had to be drawn with special golden talismans, such as the Nine Heavens Corpse Seal Talisman, the Thunder Talisman, and so on. Only Taoist priests with profound cultivation and a deep understanding of talismans could draw divine talismans.
At present, there was basically no one who could draw a god-given talisman. The reasons were simple: 1. People with powerful cultivation did not have a profound understanding of talismans; 2. Those who have a deep understanding of talismans do not have strong cultivation. 3. Studying talismans requires a lot of money.
In the current age of chaos, it was too difficult to have all three.
Most of the Taoist priests would only learn some commonly used talismans. Very few people would study talismans in depth.
This was because the price-performance ratio of researching talismans was too low.
With the time and energy, wouldn't it be nice to cultivate a powerful lightning technique? Wasn't it strong to cultivate a godly punch that could beat up zombies? Wasn't it good to cultivate a strange and unpredictable ghost-enslaving technique? Cultivation…
Moreover, learning how to make talismans was very expensive. Purple talismans and golden talismans required talisman paper made of special materials, which were expensive. About one dollar could only buy four or five sets of purple talisman materials, not to mention golden talismans. As long as you knew that the materials used to make golden talismans were mixed with gold powder, you would know how expensive golden talismans were.
Therefore, in-depth study of talismans not only required one to be talented and hardworking, but more importantly, one had to be rich and able to support one's production of talismans to burn money.
As long as they thought about the difficulty, many people would simply switch to other Dao techniques.
Because most of the people who learned Taoism were poor, the "penniless" Taoist Wang Ye was just an exception.
Ninth Uncle had never learned any high-level talismans, so Lu Chen had no place to learn them. He did not expect that the first high-level talisman he learned would drop from the system treasure chest.
Silver treasure chest…I'll remember you.
He happily checked his newly obtained talisman.
The Soul Ferrying Talisman, as its name suggested, was a talisman used to ferry souls, allowing lonely ghosts who could not reincarnate for various reasons to be reborn.
It was actually very troublesome for Taoist priests to help people exorcise souls. They needed to set up an altar, burn incense, burn paper, and other procedures, so it didn't matter. Ordinary Taoist priests would not help ghosts exorcise souls.
However, it was different with the Soul Ferrying Talisman. It could simplify all the procedures of soul ferrying. A single talisman could help lonely ghosts ferry souls. It was very convenient.
As for the Five Ghosts Fortune Talisman, just by looking at its name, one could tell that it was related to the legendary Five Ghosts Fortune Technique. It could control the five ghosts to not open the door of others and take away people's belongings without breaking through their chests. It was equivalent to taking things from afar and was extremely powerful.
Knowing how to draw this talisman, the so-called safe and the iron walls of the bank were useless to him. He could take whatever he wanted from inside. This was the Five Ghosts Fortune Talisman.
Other than the talisman and the ocean, the silver treasure chest also dropped a copper coin. He played with it in his hand and digested the information about this copper coin. This copper coin was called the Treasure Seeking Copper Coin. It was a square-shaped coin with the words "Treasure Seeking" engraved on it. It was a magical and auspicious spiritual item that could bless the wearer to make a fortune.
Lu Chen clicked his tongue and sighed. Old Master Ren was indeed a zombie born from a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water. The talismans and spiritual items that dropped were all related to money.
He put away the copper coin and looked at the amount of merit points. There were a total of 1,000 merit points, making him feel as if he had become rich overnight.
Based on his past experience, 1,000 merit points were enough for him to advance two levels, reaching Tier 5 of the Mortal Teacher Realm.
Thinking of this, he couldn't wait to tap on the ( ) at the end of his cultivation. He tapped twice in a row, and his merit points plummeted like stocks, instantly shrinking by more than half.
Swoosh ~
At the same time, a large amount of spiritual energy surged in from all directions and flowed into his body through his relaxed pores, turning into pure and gentle spiritual energy.
His entire body felt as if he was soaking in a hot spring. There was an indescribable comfort. Some impurities gradually seeped out of his body. Compared to the stench from the previous few times, the smell was much lighter.
Ten minutes passed, and the spiritual energy in his body gradually weakened. Lu Chen snapped out of his daze and checked his cultivation level in the system. He realized that he had already reached the fifth stage of the Mortal Teacher Realm, and there were more Soul Ferrying Talismans and Five Ghosts Fortune Talismans in his talismans.
The system was right. Slaying demons and devils was a path with a bright future.
Satisfied, he jumped out of bed and went to the well to draw water for a bath.
Aiya ~
When he was changing his clothes, he suddenly heard a flustered and shy scream. He raised his eyebrows and turned around to see Ren Tingting, whose face was blushing and covered her face with both hands.
“……”
Lu Chen unhurriedly buttoned his shirt and greeted him without changing his expression,"Tingting, you're still awake?"
"I, I can't sleep…"
Ren Tingting's face was red with embarrassment. She nervously pinched the corner of her clothes and lowered her head as she stammered.
"I see."
Lu Chen suddenly understood. Her father, who had been sheltering her from the wind and rain in the morning, had been bitten to death by her grandfather. At night, she had experienced a soul-stirring escape and pursuit. Such a turbulent day would make it difficult for anyone to sleep, let alone her, who was only 18 years old.
"It's not good for your body to hold on like this.”He thought for a moment and said,"Come in. I have a way to let you sleep."”As he spoke, he walked towards Ren Tingting's guest room.
"Ah…are we sleeping together?"
Ren Tingting became even more nervous. It was as if in western stories, the prince would comfort the princess who was traumatized like this.
"W-what are you guys doing?"
Wen Cai, who heard Ren Tingting's scream, came out of the ancestral hall and said with his eyes wide open,"You guys want to sleep together?" He only felt his heart tighten as if he was suffocating. It was very uncomfortable. Could it be that the corpse poison had attacked his heart?
"It has nothing to do with you. Go back and dance.”
Lu Chen pursed his lips and entered Ren Tingting's room first. Ren Tingting's face was flushed red and she was standing there at a loss. Had she experienced too much today?
