After all the talisman papers were used up, he went to the Treasure Hunting Pavilion and spent a medium-grade spirit stone to buy three hundred pieces of talisman papers, as well as three medium-grade spirit stones of talisman ink materials.
Of the external talismans he had drawn before, except for the first explosive talisman and the twenty or so five-character Extreme Flame Fingers he drew on the last day, the rest either failed to be made and exploded, or had too few characters in the talisman to be powerful.
After being inspected by the appraiser of the Treasure Hunting Pavilion, his explosive talisman was found to be a five-character Xuan-level external talisman, with a purchase price of five low-grade spirit stones.
The other Five-Character Extreme Flame Fingers were all yellow grade, worth only three low-grade spirit stones each, and were barely sold for seventy low-grade spirit stones.
However, this also made him see a way to make money. As long as he could master the skills of making external talismans and ensure the success rate and quality of the talismans, the talisman paper and materials worth four medium-grade spirit stones would definitely make him a fortune.
Ye Li didn't know that he was different from other talisman masters. Generally, a newbie would consider it good if they had a 10% success rate in making talismans. A slightly more skilled person could reach 20%, and only the really powerful ones could reach more than 50%.
This is because most people have no idea how to draw a perfect talisman, so there are always some problems in their talisman drawings.
When using a talisman pen to draw external talismans, due to the increased difficulty of control, the problems in their talisman drawing will be magnified. If you are not careful, the talisman drawing will fail, and it is difficult to guarantee the success rate and quality.
With the help of his natal talisman, Ye Li had already figured out the perfect way to draw the talisman. Therefore, as long as he tried his best to ensure the control of the talisman pen, there would not be too big deviation in the talisman strokes. At most, the quality of the talisman would be a little lower, and the success rate would still be highly guaranteed.
It took Ye Li ten days to use up all the 300 talisman papers this time. He used all of them to draw the Extreme Flame Finger.
The success rate of the three hundred talisman papers was only about 60% at the beginning, but later it reached 100%, which means that every piece of talisman paper can be made into an external talisman.
After practicing repeatedly three hundred times, his Extreme Flame Finger has reached the level of perfection.
The last fifty external talismans all reached the earth level, and they were all eight-character and one-character talismans.
Not only could Ye Li draw the Earth-level Eight-Character Extreme Flame Finger within the five finger-snap times of making the outer talisman, he could also draw the Earth-level Eight-Character Extreme Flame Finger even within the instant of drawing the talisman directly.
His speed in drawing talismans has reached seventy-five strokes in a snap of the fingers, which is almost the limit that a talisman master in the Spirit Gathering Stage can achieve.
Ye Li had tested the power of the Earth-level Eight-Character Extreme Flame Finger before, and it did not disappoint him. With a point of his finger, a flame as thick as his forearm burned through a huge rock that four people could hug together.
The highly concentrated fire spiritual energy created a hole in the boulder that was as thick as a calf.
The flames did not disappear after penetrating the boulder, and they continued to burn through several large trees not far away before stopping.
However, what he didn't expect was that even though he thought his Extreme Flame Finger had reached perfection, it still failed to increase the purity of the talisman root, which made him a little confused.
After thinking for a while, Ye Li thought that it might be because the stacking of the talismans of the Extreme Flame Finger had not reached the limit, or because the talisman itself was incomplete, so the talisman root could not be strengthened.
When Ye Li came to the Treasure Hunting Pavilion again with more than 200 talismans he made, the clerk in charge of purchasing was scared to death.
He sold three hundred pieces of talisman paper to Ye Li, but Ye Li took more than two hundred and twenty foreign talismans.
This number made him swallow his saliva, and he looked at Ye Li with an expression of disbelief.
Ye Li looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Is there any problem?"
The waiter asked cautiously, "My dear customer, I would like to ask you a question. Are all these talismans made from the three hundred pieces of talisman paper you bought last time?"
Ye Li nodded, and said with a little regret on his face: "Yes, I bought 300 pieces of talisman paper from you last time to make external talismans.
But unexpectedly, due to lack of skills, a lot of them were lost during the production process, and as a result, there are only more than 220 pieces left.
Brother, can you help me calculate how many spirit stones I can get here?"
Seeing the regretful expression on Ye Li's face, the waiter thought he was joking and said, "Sir, you are really funny. You have made more than 220 talisman papers out of 300. The success rate has exceeded 60%. This is already the level of a master talisman maker.
If you hadn't admitted it yourself, I wouldn't have believed that you were so young and your level of making external symbols was so high. It's incredible."
After the guy finished speaking, he turned around and went to the back to ask for an appraiser, while Ye Li stood there in a daze.
From what the guy said just now, a 60% success rate is actually a master's level. So what level would his 100% success rate be in the next few days
Of course he couldn't say these words out loud. Looking around, Ye Li couldn't help but blame himself for not being careful enough and should have been more discreet.
In the future, after buying talisman paper, you cannot sell it all at once. You should sell it in several batches to avoid attracting attention.
After a while, the waiter who had just left turned around and returned to the counter, with an old man with a mustache beside him.
Ye Li had seen this old man last time. His surname was Hu and he was the appraiser of the Treasure Hunting Pavilion.
"Hello, guest. I am sorry to have kept you waiting. I will help you identify the level of your external talisman."
After appraiser Hu finished speaking, he picked up Ye Li’s external talismans one by one.
Ye Li could feel the fluctuations of spiritual consciousness from the old man, and he thought that the other party's way of identification was to use the power of spiritual consciousness.
As the appraisal progressed, the expression on the appraiser's face, surnamed Hu, gradually changed from calm to confusion, and finally to shock.
After quickly checking all the external talismans with the power of his spiritual consciousness, the old man surnamed Hu had a strange expression on his face, and he said to Ye Li: "My guest, you are really amazing. You have reached the earth level in mastering talismans at such a young age.
These talismans of yours are of great value. I will report the test results to you.
Among these external talismans, there are thirty yellow-level five-character extreme flame fingers, each of which costs three low-grade spirit stones.
There are forty yellow-level six-character extreme flame fingers, each worth five low-grade spirit stones.
There are forty yellow-level seven-character extreme flame fingers, each with seven low-grade spirit stones.
There are twenty Xuan-level seven-character extreme flame fingers, each with ten low-grade spirit stones.
There are forty-three Xuan-level Eight-Character Extreme Flame Fingers, each with thirteen low-grade spirit stones.
The remaining fifty pieces are all Earth-level Eight-Character Extreme Flame Finger. At this price... I'll give you eighteen lower-grade spirit stones for each piece. What do you think?"
Listening to the price offered by the old man surnamed Hu, the expression on Ye Li's face became a little stiff. Although he was not proficient in numerology, even a rough calculation of the price just now was far beyond his estimation. His heart was beating wildly with excitement at this moment.
