Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 79: Giveaway

As an official institution, the Taoist temple was built in the city and was very grand.

"I am Chen Zhen, and I am here to visit Daoist Fellow Yu Yangzi. Please let him know."

As soon as he entered the door, there were only two Taoist boys in the yard, and Chen Lin spoke kindly.

The Taoist boy felt the fluctuation of magic power from Chen Lin, responded immediately, and ran in.

Soon, a young Taoist priest walked out from the inner courtyard, bowed to Chen Lin and said, "You must be Taoist Chen, my master wants to see you."

After saying that, he made a gesture of invitation.

Chen Lin returned the salute and followed the other party into the inner courtyard.

"Friend Chen, please wait a moment. I am healing my wounds and will be well soon."

As soon as he was brought to the outside of a room, he heard Yu Yangzi's voice coming from inside, sounding a little weak.

It didn't take long before Yu Yangzi pushed the door open and invited Chen Lin in.

"Haha, I was just regretting not asking you where you live, but I didn't expect you to come."

After the host and the guest took their seats, Yu Yangzi spoke.

"Oh? Taoist priest, is there anything I can do for you?"

Chen Lin was surprised for a moment and asked.

Yu Yangzi stroked his beard and did not answer. Instead, he asked, "Why don't you first tell me what you want from me, Mr. Daoist Chen?"

Chen Lin thought for a moment and said straight to the point: "I heard from the market that the Taoist priest is good at making talismans to ward off evil spirits and to kill evil spirits. I am also a talisman maker, so I want to discuss the method of making talismans with the Taoist priest."

Yu Yangzi nodded as if he had expected it.

He spoke meaningfully, "I saw that you seem to have the means to control the evil creature. Do you still need talismans to break the evil? If you only want to use them yourself, I can give you some for free."

Chen Lin was a little embarrassed.

He knew he was being a little reckless.

Since the talismans for warding off evil and killing evil are the other party's means of making money, then if he buys the refining methods and then makes them himself and sells them, it would be tantamount to stealing other people's jobs!

I can't continue talking.

Although the price of this talisman would definitely skyrocket within a period of time, the other party would not sell it to him even if he swallowed his pride and asked for it again.

Thinking of this, Chen Lin smiled and said, "I came here just to see how the Taoist priest is injured. As for the means of restraining evil spirits, it only relies on talismans."

He didn't lie. The jade talisman was also a talisman, and it had already been wrapped up and hung around his neck.

It was precisely because of this thing that he did not choose to leave here, but instead planned to take the opportunity to make a fortune.

After saying that, Chen Lin decided to change the subject and talk about other things.

But to his surprise, Yu Yangzi smiled slightly and took out a jade slip from his sleeve.

"Fellow Daoist Chen saved my life, and I have no way to repay you. Since you are also a talisman master, I will give you the methods of making these talismans."

Without waiting for Chen Lin to speak, the old Taoist sighed again and said, "There have been many cases of people going crazy recently, but none of them are this serious. At most, a talisman to ward off evil spirits can be used to purify the evil spirits."

"Like the daughter-in-law of the Liu family, the evil spirit has actually formed a physical entity and has never appeared before. This shows that this kind of evil energy can grow stronger. I feel that something bad is going to happen."

"I am a lowly Taoist priest, and my words are not influential. I cannot stop the masters of Lieyang Sect from continuing to crack the formation of the ancient cultivator's cave. Those masters will not care about the life and death of mortals and low-level cultivators. I can only refine more evil-repelling talismans in case of emergency!"

After saying that, the old Taoist pointed to the jade slip and said, "This jade slip records the methods of making three kinds of talismans, namely the talisman for warding off evil spirits, the talisman for killing evil spirits, and the talisman for suppressing demons. I can only refine the first two. If you can refine the talisman for suppressing demons, don't forget to send me one."

"In addition, these methods of refining talismans are all inherited from my Wufang Temple. After giving them to you, please do not pass them on to others."

After saying that, he handed the jade slip to Chen Lin.

This thing was what he had always dreamed of. Chen Lin had no intention of refusing or being humble, and just grabbed it in his hand.

Then he said solemnly: "Master, please rest assured that I will never tell anyone about this. I can swear an oath to the devil in my heart!"

Chen Lin's actions made the old Taoist realize what straightforwardness meant, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

However, he stopped Chen Lin from swearing the inner demon oath, and shook his head and said, "The inner demon oath is unnecessary. In fact, according to me, this method of refining talismans to restrain evil spirits should be completely open to all cultivators. But the court does not allow it, and there is nothing we can do."

"I want to warn you, fellow Taoists, don't make the inner demon oath casually. If you make it too many times, you won't be able to remember it, and you never know when you will do something that violates your oath."

"Even if you can remember all the oaths, too many oaths will be noticed by the inner demon, and it is easy to appear when you break through the realm. The higher the cultivation level, the more attention you should pay to this aspect."

Chen Lin's face changed when he heard this.

He really didn't know about this situation. He had made several oaths to his inner demons before.

Fortunately, the other party reminded me, otherwise if I sent it every time I traded information items, I wouldn’t know how much to send.

This is the disadvantage of not having a master to guide you.

He hurriedly stood up and bowed respectfully to the old Taoist.

"Thank you for the reminder, Taoist Priest. I am very grateful!"

The corner of the old Taoist's mouth twitched again, and he couldn't help but say: "Fellow Daoist Chen should be about the same age as me, so there's no need to call yourself a kid."

Chen Lin was stunned.

The other party saw through his true appearance and almost pointed at his nose and said he was pretending to be young.

He immediately explained: "Master, you don't know, although I look haggard, it's because of some physical changes I had before, so my real age is only in my forties."

The old Taoist's face was immediately filled with black lines. "Over forty is not young anymore. I am only fifty years old. It's fine to treat each other as equals."

After saying this, the old Taoist flicked his sleeves and said, "My physical injuries have not yet fully recovered, so I will not keep you here today. If you encounter a powerful evil creature, please do not try to be brave. You can come to my temple and find me to solve it together."

"Okay, I will definitely come to ask the Taoist priest for help when the time comes."

Chen Lin bowed again and left the room.

The young Taoist priest accompanied Chen Lin to the door and gave him two bottles of talisman ink.

One bottle is for making talismans to ward off evil spirits, and the other bottle is for making talismans to kill evil spirits. Chen Lin was really moved.

Fellow Daoist Yuyangzi, you are so kind!

Chen Lin walked back while thinking.

Yu Yangzi must have discovered that he had killed the red shadow evil creature. After all, the other party was not unconscious at the time. With the perception of a cultivator in the late stage of Qi training and the distance was so close, it was almost impossible to see it clearly.

The white light emitted by the jade talisman was also very conspicuous and could not be hidden from the other party.

However, the other party did not ask any further questions and even gave him the method of making talismans. His character was really impeccable.

Although he did save the other person once, it was passive, and repaying kindness with enmity is not uncommon among the monks.

All I can say is that the other party is an upright monk and is worth making friends with.
