It also meant he could tame a large number of new pets.
No longer would he have to worry about not having enough spiritual power.
After entering the city, he made a beeline for Bei Bing’s talisman shop.
“Bei Bing, get me two more advanced contract talismans and five intermediate contract talismans,” Qin Niu said as he pulled out 250 silver notes.
By now, he should be considered an absolutely major customer of this talisman shop.
Many Insect Masters or Beast Tamers may need to save money for ten, even twenty or thirty years to buy an advanced contract talisman.
Qin Niu made quite a fortune and therefore did not lack the money.
“Mmm mmm…”
Bei Bing gestured for him to sit and wait a moment.
It wasn’t long before she called out her grandfather.
Of course, whether this old man was her grandfather or father, he did not know. The old man had white hair and looked very old, while Bei Bing was still very young, only about seventeen or eighteen years old.
So Qin Niu concluded that the old man must be Bei Bing’s grandfather.
“Currently, there is only one advanced contract talisman available, young man. If you need two, you’ll have to place a reservation. It should take about half a month before we can deliver,” the grandfather said, naturally not daring to slight such a big customer.
Crafting advanced contract talismans was exceedingly difficult.
Getting the raw materials and the process of creating the talismans were both extremely complex.
And it was said that there was a high failure rate in crafting talismans.
The higher the level of the talisman, the greater the chance of failure during production.
“Alright then, I’ll buy just one for now! Forget the reservation,” Qin Niu decided. As his trip was very high-risk, he naturally wasn’t going to pay a large sum of silver for some reservation.
After buying the talismans, Qin Niu asked, “Old sir, do you know how to get to Black Stone Village in Hundred Leaf Town?”
“Are you aiming to find the Green Demon Bee?” the old man glanced at him.
“Yes, I want to try my luck,” Qin Niu nodded.
“Mmm mmm…”
Bei Bing who was listening by the side, began to vigorously wave her hands and shake her head at him, trying to dissuade him from going.
“Bei Bing, thank you for your concern. In this lifetime of cultivation, one naturally goes against the heavens, struggling against destiny and competing against others. 1 have already decided to go. I will be extra careful when the time comes,” Qin Niu said. Once he made up his mind, not even nine oxen could pull him back.
She stopped talking and ran inside.
Qin Niu thought she got upset and could only shake his head and show a bitter smile. Having such a genuinely concerned friend amid the vast sea of people was truly a great fortune in life.
“Young man, I really shouldn’t be meddling. Many go to Hundred Leaf Town seeking the Green Demon Bee—few return with anything, many leave their lives there. I urge you to consider this carefully. If you’re not familiar with the path, you could buy a map at the nameless shop right at the main junction. They have all kinds of maps there, not expensive and with reliable routes,” the old man recommended a map shop to him.
“Thank you for your advice,” Qin Niu replied.
Qin Niu had obtained a Green Demon treasure map with great difficulty; he naturally couldn’t bear to give up on it just like that.
Moreover, a great battle between the Black Tiger Gang, the Nine Insect Gang, and the Shennong Sect was imminent, and the call to arms was just a matter of time.
His Termite was effective against insects but not against enemies, even he shook his head at that thought.
Those that crawl on the ground can never match those that fly in the sky.
The allure of the Green Demon Bee was simply too great for him.
They say people die for wealth, as birds die for food.
He really didn’t care for ordinary wealth and certainly wouldn’t risk his life for it.
But for such an opportunity that could greatly boost one’s strength and benefit them for a lifetime, it was probably hard for any Cultivator to refuse.
You must take risks to win.
Truly, without taking any risks and just wishing for immortality by lying down is nearly impossible.
For this task of retrieving the Green Demon treasure, he had made a lot of preparations and believed that even with certain risks, he could cope.
After finishing his purchase, he stepped out of the shop.
Behind him, Bei Bing chased after him.
“Ya ya…”
She called out from behind then handed him a small wooden box containing a talisman.
Qin Niu did not know what the talisman was for.
Because she was mute, she gestured frantically to explain.
“This talisman was a birthday gift for little Bei Bing, it’s called an Invisibility Talisman. Once activated, it can hide your figure. It can be used both day and night.”
“However, during the day, its invisibility duration will be halved.”
“Also, if it’s used at night, staying still can make you invisible for up to four hours. During the day, it can last for two hours.”
“If you move quickly, are attacked by enemies, or if you initiate an attack, it could all cause the effect to dissipate.”
“In terms of creating the Invisibility Talisman, I’m only just getting the hang of it, and I was fortunate to make one successfully. Keep it with you in hopes that it will help you escape grave danger.”
“There are two ways to activate it. One is to prick your fingertip or tongue, and drip blood onto this activation area. The method is similar to using a contract talisman.”
“The other method to activate it is by using your divine power.”
“You must possess the cultivation of the Innate Realm or higher.”
“Actually, the correct way to use all talismans is by stimulating them with divine power. Our Talisman Masters create talismans that can be activated with blood essence to accommodate ordinary people. This is a non-standard activation method.”
The old man explained the function and usage of the talisman in detail.
Qin Niu had not expected such a valuable birthday gift, yet Bei Bing had given it to him.
Looking into Bei Bing’s kind and sincere eyes, Qin Niu did not reject her kindness.
He truly needed such a precious talisman..
