Ye Li, who was standing in front of the building, seemed to be blocking the way of the people behind him. A young man who looked like a rich young man, and a middle-aged man dressed as a bodyguard beside him, had to go around to the side before they could reach the door of the Treasure Pavilion.
The young master didn't hear Ye Li's sigh, thinking that Ye Li had never seen such a big store. After walking around him, he turned his head and glared at Ye Li, then spat and said, "Where did you come from, you country bumpkin? Haven't you seen the housekeeper's treasure pavilion? Why are you blocking the road
This is not a place for country bumpkins to come. If you want to buy grain seeds, go back to your village. Why are you wandering around in Jujin City?"
After the young man finished speaking, he seemed to think that what he said was somewhat humorous and couldn't help but smile complacently. Then he walked quickly into the Treasure Pavilion with the guards beside him.
Ye Li was stunned by what the other party said. Although he was indeed blocking the middle of the road, the place was so spacious that the other party only needed to go around him to enter the Treasure Pavilion. There was no need to speak ill of him.
He looked down at himself. In order to facilitate long-distance travel and fighting when he was away from home, he did not wear his usual cotton and brocade robe, but a linen suit. Just looking at his strong and plump body, he did look a bit like a cook who did hard labor all year round.
However, even though Ye Li did not look very imposing on a daily basis, his movements still showed some of the high-spirited demeanor of a young man from a noble family. He did not look like a real cook at all.
At this time, the young man had already walked into the Treasure Pavilion. Ye Li had no interest in chasing him and arguing with him. He could only shake his head helplessly, just as if he was encountering a dog barking on the roadside.
After looking at the Treasure Pavilion for a while, he stepped into the shop.
As soon as he entered the store, a clerk came up to him and greeted him with a smile on his face.
The assistants in these big shops were discerning people who had been trained by their families. They could naturally tell the difference between Ye Li and real cooks, and dared not look down on him or neglect him.
"Dear guest, welcome to our Treasure Pavilion. I wonder if there is anything you may need."
The guy asked with a smile.
Ye Li also responded with a smile, saying: "My dear brother, I came here first to ask you to refine two pills for me, and second to buy some materials for casting rune armor."
After hearing Ye Li's answer, the waiter said, "I understand. Please follow me, sir. I will first take you to the place where the materials for the talisman armor are sold, and then I will take you to the place where you can entrust the alchemy. Is that okay?"
Ye Li naturally had no objection. He nodded and said "OK", then followed the waiter inside.
The space inside the Treasure Pavilion is very large, and there are many customers. There are also many waiters walking around, guiding people and helping them shop.
The waiter led Ye Li all the way to the east side of the first floor, where various samples of casting materials were displayed on the counter.
After handing Ye Li to another clerk at the counter, he walked aside to guide another customer.
The clerk at the counter smiled and said, "Sir, you need materials for casting rune armor, right? Do you have any requirements or restrictions on the materials?"
After thinking for a while, Ye Li said, “I need three different levels of talisman armor materials, one for casting Spirit Mist Stage talisman armor, one for Spirit Sea Stage, and the last one for Spirit Pill Stage.
For those in the Spiritual Mist Stage and the Spiritual Sea Stage, I need enough materials to make two sets of breastplates, of medium quality.
As for the Spiritual Elixir Stage, I only need enough materials to make a set of breastplate, but it must be of the best quality."
After listening to Ye Li's needs, the waiter thought for a moment and took out three booklets from behind the counter.
He first opened a booklet, handed it to Ye Li, and said: "Please look, sir, these two pages record the materials suitable for casting Spirit Mist Stage Talisman Armor, and they are all of relatively medium quality.
If you need something of lower quality, go to the front, and the good quality ones are at the back.”
Ye Li took the booklet, said thank you, and began to flip through it casually.
He read it quickly, as he had already looked at these materials before and was familiar with their properties and qualities.
After looking at it for a while, he selected five of them and said, "I need five materials: diamond essence, nanli iron... and soft mud steel."
The material of the talisman cannot be chosen at random, but must be matched according to the future characteristics of the talisman.
Because the talisman armor is different from the steel armor used by ordinary people, it is not the material itself that exerts its defensive effect, but the various spiritual formations engraved in the material.
These formations have fixed types, and the matching methods are arbitrary. Some formations produce soft aura shields, which have the effect of overcoming hardness with softness, while others are hard and are a head-on defense method.
Different types of shields have different defensive effects. A good combination of aura formations can also allow the user to control the expansion and contraction of the aura shield to increase local defense strength.
The different materials of the talisman armor will affect the spiritual energy formations engraved on them. If the two are not well matched, the effectiveness of the formation will be greatly reduced, and ultimately the quality of the entire talisman armor will be reduced.
The Talisman Armor Record records all of this very completely, including the material types, corresponding formations, and some special effects. These are the summary of the Foundry Hall's experience over thousands of years. After reading it, Ye Li gained a lot.
After he had selected the materials for the Spiritual Mist Stage Talisman Armor he needed, the clerk handed him another booklet and said, "This is the booklet for the materials for the Spiritual Sea Stage Talisman Armor. You can choose one more."
Ye Li took the booklet and quickly selected seven materials.
This time he intentionally increased the amount of materials, because the more materials there were, the more difficult the casting would be. After all, his main purpose was to practice, so of course he needed to increase the difficulty.
Finally, the guy handed him the Lingdan period booklet and turned to the last few pages.
"Sir, these few pages record the best quality materials of the Spiritual Pill Stage. The rune armor made from them will definitely have excellent defensive capabilities."
The guy said to Ye Li with a smile.
Ye Li nodded. He was naturally very familiar with these materials and didn't need the waiter to explain them.
Superior quality materials will have a bonus effect on the engraved spiritual energy formation. As long as they are matched properly, the originally same spiritual energy formation will exert completely different power.
It is also because of this that good quality rune armor has much stronger defensive capabilities.
After looking at the booklet for a while, Ye Li selected ten kinds of talisman armor materials. This time it was not because he wanted to increase the difficulty for himself, but the talisman armor of the Lingdan period itself required ten kinds of materials.
This will also be a huge challenge for him, but once the casting is successful, Ye Li will plate it with colorful star steel, then he will be able to obtain a top-quality talisman armor of the Lingdan period.
