Killing God - Chapter 37
Chapter 37 Hong Beng Village
If you want to make a talisman, Of course, it couldn’t be made out of thin air. On the contrary, this talisman technique was specifically aimed at the Five Elements Technique. The materials used were all made from special materials. It had long been established. Although Shen Shi wasn’t old, he had been forced by his father to learn the talisman technique for many years since he was young. He naturally knew the materials for making talismans.
Firstly, he needed a special talisman pen. The talisman pen was usually made from spirit materials that were tough and rich in spirit energy, especially demonic beast bones. The higher the grade, the stronger the demonic beast’s ability to absorb the spirit energy of heaven and earth, and the better the talisman pen made from its beast bones would be. Secondly, it was the most basic carrier of talismans-talismans paper. This talisman paper was not the ordinary white paper that Shen Shi had casually drawn talismans on in Xilu City in the past. It really had to be made into a talisman. It had to be filled with Spiritual Energy and use special talismans to form a special talisman for the Five Elements Spell Array. Therefore, the talisman paper had to be made from spirit materials to withstand spirit power, Moreover, because the five element spells were different, Its power varies in size, The talismans used in the Five Elements Spells of different grades were also different, For example, the most common Tier 1 spells were Fireball and Water Arrow, Because the least amount of Spiritual Energy required to infuse was also the least, Therefore, the talisman paper needed was also the most ordinary “yellow talisman paper”. If the power of the Second Order, Third Order, and Five Elements spells suddenly increased, the talisman paper needed to be changed to “red talisman paper” and “green talisman paper”. Of course, the quality of the talisman paper was higher, and the cost of the materials used was also higher.
Apart from these two most important materials, there was also the “cinnabar” used to draw runic runic arrays. This kind of thing wasn’t too rare. Shen Shi remembered that in the past, when selling runic pen and talisman papers on the first floor of Xilu City, shopkeepers would usually give them one or two bottles as gifts to add to their heads.
There were only a few kinds of materials, but the main talisman pen and talisman paper required spirit materials to be made, so it used to be expensive. In addition, talismans were difficult to make, so in Shen Shi’s memories, talismans were not cheap. Even if ordinary rogue cultivators knew that this item would sometimes save time and effort, they could not afford it.
At this moment, the green board in front of him clearly read, Shen Shi’s heart sank. As expected, the last few sentences of the note gave him some pointers. It was only talisman pen and talisman paper. However, the lowest grade talisman pen and yellow talisman paper were all available on the island. They were about five talisman pens and five spirit crystals each. As for the cinnabar needed to draw talismans, they were also generously given by the Friendship Group.
In the end, Especially when you see the price, Shen Shi’s face darkened. He turned around and left. These five spirit crystals didn’t sound particularly expensive, but they were consumables that couldn’t hold a talisman pen or talisman paper. Needless to say, drawing a talisman paper was one less. Talisman pens, especially low-grade talisman pens, were extremely fragile because the materials weren’t tough enough. They would usually be broken in less than twenty times.
Under this premise, the price of five spirit crystals per portion was simply too expensive. Moreover, talismans were known for their complexity and difficulty. Normally, drawing talismans was extremely error-prone. Once a rune was wrong, the entire talisman paper would be useless. Therefore, Shen Shi only thought for a moment before seeing that this was impossible to do and could only give up.
When he walked back to the white board in front of him, Shen Shi scolded the High Firmament Sect’s hall in his heart with a sullen expression.
There were still quite a few youths standing in front of the whiteboard. Shen Shi raised his eyes and looked around. Seeing that Sun You, He Xiaomei, Jiang Hongguang, and the others were still standing there, he walked over and said, “How is it? Do you see anything suitable?”
He Xiaomei and Jiang Hongguang both shook their heads slightly. Sun You sighed and said, “After looking at it for a long time, I feel that the tasks on it are almost the same. It seems that they are really the ones my little uncle told us to do better.”
Shen Shi frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said, “Why don’t we go take a look as well?”
The other three looked at each other and nodded.

“What, full?”
Young Friend Sun was a little stunned as he looked at the smiling Senior Sister in front of him.
This senior sister was dressed as a disciple of Lingxiao Sect. She had a slim figure and a beautiful appearance. She looked five or six years older than them. It was the season of her youth and beauty, and she also seemed to have a good temper. She stood in the White Crane Hall to receive these rookies and juniors. Many teenagers liked to come over and talk to her and ask questions.
When Young Master Sun and the others came here to register the tasks that her little uncle had mentioned, just as they had said the first pill refinement that they had repeatedly discussed and felt was the best, this senior sister smiled and told them that the Pill Hall only accepted 40 people today. Now, it was full.
“Isn’t this too fast” Sun You, Shen Shi, and the others looked at each other with a bad premonition in their hearts. Shen Shi hurriedly took a step forward and said, “Where is the shell picker? Is it the mission given by the Array Hall?”
The senior sister lowered her head and glanced at a book in her hand. She smiled faintly and said, “The array hall needs 30 people. It’s full.”
Shen Shi was silent. He Xiaomei was anxious at the side and said, “Where are the beasts? The mission given by the Spirit Beast Hall?”
Glancing at the record book, Senior Sister smiled and said, “Aiya, what a coincidence. The Spirit Beast Palace is full of forty people.”
“This” The four youths stood at the side, speechless for a moment.
After a while, Young Friend Sun muttered, “Damn it, how could it be so fast? That whiteboard clearly has so many tasks, why does it seem like everyone is desperately squeezing towards these places?”
He Xiaomei and Jiang Hongguang remained silent. It seemed that they were also confused and confused. However, Shen Shi thought back to the words he had heard when they parted ways with his father.
Was it true that all the elites and intelligent people in the world had gathered on this path of cultivation? Even if they were all such youths, how many of them were smart? Apart from that, the Sun You family in front of him would be secretly taken care of by some hints. What about the people from other families? How large is the scale of the subordinate aristocratic families of Lingxiao Sect? Perhaps there aren’t several hundred of them, big or small?
Shen Shi took a deep breath. It could not be said that his heart was dark, but he still felt an inexplicable pressure. However, after experiencing so many things, he did not lose confidence. Instead, he secretly clenched his fists.
“I say, why don’t we go take a look at the Red Mussels?” Shen Shi smiled and said to the other three companions.
After thinking for a while, Young Friend Sun nodded and said, “Looks like there’s nothing we can do. The other missions seem to be very troublesome. Why don’t we go over and take a look first? If it’s really difficult to peel the shrimp there, then let’s come back.”
He Xiaomei nodded and agreed. Jiang Hongguang seemed to be hesitant, but in the end, the other three seemed to want to go over, so she agreed to go over and take a look together.
The Red Mussels lived on the east side of Qingyu Island, a distance away from Qingyu Fair. However, the road on the island was smooth and easy to walk. It did not take them much time to reach the small seaside village that was directly called the Red Mussels Village.
From afar, one could see dozens of strange-looking houses on a flat beach, large and small. Most of them were struck into the sand with four thick woods. Only wooden houses six or seven feet above the ground could be found. Ordinary people could even walk freely under these houses.
At this moment, he saw the shadows of the people in the small village shaking. The strange red clam clansmen with red clam shells could be seen everywhere. However, in addition, there were actually more than a dozen rookie disciples and youths who were similar to Shen Shi, Sun You, and the others who were also here.
Seeing this scene, Shen Shi and the others were dumbfounded. Sun You was somewhat surprised and said, “Really? There are so many people robbing this place? I never heard that the island’s robbery mission would reach such a terrifying level before.”
Shen Shi tugged at Young Friend Sun, who was still in a daze. As he walked forward quickly, he said, “Hurry up and come. I really won’t even be able to find this place in a while …”
Sun You was shocked and hurriedly followed. He Xiaomei and Jiang Hongguang were also surprised as they followed behind them and quickly walked towards the Red Clam Village.
When he first stepped into Red Clam Village, To be honest, the four youths were still somewhat uneasy. After all, this was the first time they had come into close contact with these “Demon race” since childhood, However, looking at the surrounding Red Clam clansmen walking around, although they weren’t very hospitable, each of them didn’t seem to have any ferocious and vicious expressions. Most of them had an expression that they wouldn’t offend the water. These youths gradually became more courageous.
Coupled with the youths who had already surrounded them, it made people feel more courageous, so they quickly walked towards the crowded place. Shen Shi glanced to the side along the way. The majority of the people in Red Clam Village looked leisurely, A few smart-looking Red Mussels even took advantage of this opportunity to set up a few stalls on the roadside. There were corals, pearls, various strange ores, and even rare sea beast bones on the stalls. They were all rare items produced from the sea. It seemed that they were prepared to do business with these human disciples.
However, it was clearly not the time to observe these things carefully. The four of them hurried to the middle of the village. There was a place that looked like an altar. There was a strange-looking sea beast statue in the middle. They didn’t know what kind it was. In any case, Shen Shi didn’t recognize it at first glance.
Below the altar, there were a dozen or so youths gathered in a circle. There were a few Red Clam clansmen standing in the middle. The one leading them was an old man. It looked familiar. Shen Shi thought for a moment and remembered that it was the old man and the young man he had seen before in Qingyu Fair. He turned his gaze and saw that the Red Clam girl was also standing behind the old man. Apart from that, there were three or four Red Clam clansmen standing beside them. They looked taller and were all grown men of the clan. At this moment, all of them had smiles on their faces and looked very happy.
“Everyone, don’t crowd, don’t crowd.” The old man laughed loudly, signaling the surrounding youths to be quiet. Then, he stroked his beard and smiled, “Isn’t the so-called’earning spirit crystals’ the reason why everyone can come here?” This matter is very simple. Everyone, look. “With a wave of his hand, two middle-aged Red Clam Clan men raised two large bamboo cages beside him. The sounds of” chattering “could be heard endlessly, as if there were many unknown insects crawling inside.
The gazes of the youths fell over. The boys didn’t feel anything, but the expressions of the girls in the crowd immediately became somewhat unnatural. He Xiaomei, who was standing beside Shen Shi, suddenly stiffened when she saw this, and her eyes were filled with inexplicable fea
