After recovering some of her spiritual energy, Xu Chunniang did not go any deeper, but explored the area nearby.
Perhaps because there were black water crocodiles in this area, there were no other monsters. However, a few low-level medicinal herbs were encountered, but they were not as precious as the Sanyuan grass.
Seeing the sun setting, Xu Chunniang did not stay in Baishiling any longer and hurried outside.
After returning to Qingshan Town, Xu Chunniang went straight to Duobao Pavilion.
The one who received her was still the Senior Sister Yao from yesterday. When she saw Xu Chunniang, a smile flashed in her eyes, "Senior Sister Xu has entered the mountain again. What did you gain today?"
Xu Chunniang first took out a jade box and handed it over.
Senior Sister Yao opened the jade box and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
"It's actually Sanyuan grass. This isn't the common stuff you can find everywhere. Moreover, this Sanyuan grass was dug out with its roots, so its medicinal properties are well preserved."
As she spoke, she pondered secretly.
This Sanyuan grass is usually guarded by monsters. I don’t know how Junior Sister Xu got it, and she was able to collect it so completely.
Xu Chunniang nodded slightly, "How many spirit stones is this Sanyuan grass worth?"
"If it were those independent cultivators, I would only give them eighteen spirit stones at most, but since you are one of us, I will give you this amount."
Senior Sister Yao smiled and raised two fingers.
Xu Chunniang was a little surprised. Even though she knew the value of Sanyuan grass, she didn't expect it to be worth twenty spirit stones.
This Sanyuan grass alone was almost worth all her harvest yesterday.
"In addition to Sanyuan grass, I have something else to sell."
After Xu Chunniang finished speaking, she took out the body of the black water crocodile and the seven bottles of blood she had collected.
Senior Sister Yao opened her eyes wide in surprise. She was just wondering how Junior Sister Xu got the Sanyuan Grass, but she didn't expect the answer to be right here.
She actually killed the monster guarding the Sanyuan Grass.
"The Black Water Crocodile, who is at the third level of Qi training, is not even far from the fourth level of Qi training."
Senior Sister Yao's gaze towards Xu Chunniang suddenly became passionate. This Junior Sister Xu had brought her many surprises.
Even if she faced the black water crocodile by herself, it would take a lot of effort to kill it.
She took one look at the black water crocodile and quickly gave a professional assessment.
"Except for the head, the rest of the black water crocodile is not damaged much. How about this, this black water crocodile, plus the blood, count as thirty-five spirit stones?"
Xu Chunniang nodded. Judging from the purchase price of Sanyuancao, the price offered by Senior Sister Yao was very fair.
Since she said the black water crocodile was worth thirty-five spirit stones, she must be right.
Seeing Xu Chunniang readily agreed, the smile on Senior Sister Yao's face became more sincere.
"Junior Sister Xu is really straightforward. If you get anything good in the future, just ask me. I will give you the most fair price."
Xu Chunniang smiled slightly and put away the spirit stone. "Senior sister, I want to buy some talismans. Can you take me to have a look?"
Senior Sister Yao's eyes lit up. "Of course. The talismans in Duobao Pavilion were all purchased from disciples within the sect. The quality is absolutely guaranteed."
In the world of cultivation, talismans, like spiritual weapons, elixirs, spiritual herbs, formations and other items, are divided into different levels according to the amount of power or spiritual energy they have.
The Qi training period corresponds to level one, and the foundation building period corresponds to level two.
Each level is divided into low, medium, high and top grades, corresponding to the four realms of cultivation: early, middle, late and perfect.
For example, the first-grade inferior one corresponds to the initial stage of Qi training, while the second-grade extreme one corresponds to the perfect foundation building.
With Xu Chunniang's current financial resources, she can only afford a first-level talisman.
The price of a first-grade low-grade talisman is one spirit stone, a medium-grade talisman is three spirit stones, and a high-grade talisman is worth eighteen spirit stones.
As for the top-grade talismans, they are extremely rare and often out of stock.
If she only bought high-quality talismans, Xu Chunniang would only be able to afford a few with all the spirit stones she had.
Finally, she turned her gaze to the low-grade and medium-grade talismans.
Xu Chunniang planned to configure some talismans of each attribute to deal with various scenarios.
There are nine kinds of low-grade talismans in total, including the fireball talisman, water arrow talisman, wind blade talisman, golden light talisman, earth shield talisman, wooden shield talisman, lightning talisman, ice explosion talisman, and a speed talisman without attributes. Xu Chunniang bought two of each.
The expenses here alone cost a total of eighteen spirit stones.
After purchasing the low-grade talismans, Xu Chunniang was still not satisfied, so she bought one of each of the nine medium-grade talismans.
Nine medium-grade talismans cost another twenty-seven spirit stones.
That’s not all. After Xu Chunniang configured the primary and mid-grade talismans, she finally turned her attention to the high-grade talismans.
A top-grade talisman has a power equivalent to that of a spell performed in the late stage of Qi training.
Although the power of the talisman is only 60% to 70% of the original, it should not be underestimated. It is definitely enough to deal with the sixth level of Qi training monsters.
Xu Chunniang was planning to buy one for self-defense. Since she had already spent so many spirit stones, did she still care about the last eighteen spirit stones
However, the effect of each high-quality talisman was extremely powerful, and for a moment, she didn’t know which one to choose.
In the end, Xu Chunniang chose the attributeless speed talisman. If she really met an extremely powerful opponent, she would better run for her life.
Because she bought quite a lot of talismans, Senior Sister Yao generously gave her two low-grade fireball talismans, which Xu Chunniang accepted.
After coming out of Duobao Pavilion, the number of spirit stones on Xu Chunniang's body decreased instead of increased, and only a pitiful five were left.
She shook her head helplessly. She had originally wanted to save more spirit stones so that she could buy a spiritual weapon as soon as possible, but now, she had spent so many spirit stones instead.
It seems that the more spiritual stones you earn, the more you spend.
However, with this large number of talismans, her safety was greatly guaranteed.
In particular, he spent a huge amount of money to buy a top-grade speed talisman, so even if he encountered a demon beast at the seventh level of Qi training, he would still have a chance of escape.
After returning to the sect, how about learning the art of talismans
Xu Chunniang thought about it seriously. Anyway, she had almost learned all the first-level spiritual plants.
With the support of Spring Birth Technique, Spirit Rain Technique and Soil Moisturizing Technique, I believe she can definitely become an excellent spiritual plant husband.
Not only can talismans be cast instantly, but they can also save spiritual energy. More importantly, the threshold is not high. After achieving some success, you can sell the talismans in exchange for spiritual stones.
Moreover, even if you don’t sell it, you can always use it if you keep it for yourself.
Imagine that when you are fighting with someone, you grab a handful of talismans and throw them out. Who can withstand it
Xu Chunniang was moved, and she secretly decided that if she had any money left after purchasing spiritual weapons from the money she earned in the Hundred Demons Mountains, she would use it to buy talisman pens and ink.
However, for several days afterwards, Xu Chunniang did not gain much.
She had been on Baishiling Mountain for three consecutive days and had not encountered any monsters.
On the fourth day, they finally encountered them, but what they encountered was a large group of bird-like monsters at the third level of Qi training. In order to escape, Xu Chunniang even used a low-grade speed talisman.
After returning to Xiaoyaoju, Xu Chunniang felt helpless. She had been at Baishiling for four consecutive days without any gains. Should she go again tomorrow
There are so many people going to Baishiling that most of the time you can’t even find the shadow of the monster.
It seemed that she was really lucky to encounter a black water crocodile there on the first day.
