Chapter 252: Chapter 219: Hundred Thousand Special Marks_2

The “Magical Treasure Naming Talisman” that follows the “Land Naming Charm” is called a “Generation Research” item.

In the lawn under the Research Building, Jiang Ming stood by with his hands clasped behind his back and said, “Let’s try it out right here.”

Yue Linger nodded, a talisman in one hand and a storage bag in the other.

With a flash of the talisman and a swoosh of the storage bag, a perfectly square pit ideal for burying someone appeared on the ground in the blink of an eye.

The efficiency was so high that Jiang Ming didn’t even react in time.

“Finished?”

“Yes. This talisman can also adjust its length, width, and height as needed. Teacher, if you think lying down isn’t comfortable, I can make it bigger for you.”

“Cough, there’s no need for now, I can still live for over three hundred years.”

“So, my assignment…”

“No problem, later compile a drawing blueprint. Oh, have you filed for certification for this talisman?”

Yue Linger shook her head in a hurry, “No need to apply, no need to apply.”

“It would still be better to apply for it, to prevent others from selling it for money.”

“It’s fine, really no need to apply.”

Since Yue Linger insisted, Jiang Ming had no further advice to offer.

She planned to find some time to send the Land Naming Charm to the enrollment office director, Li Youyuan.

After all, Li Youyuan had promised 200,000 in research and development funding.

It’s not something to be turned down.

…

Finding a cover identity for the Electro-Purification Talisman was originally quite challenging.

But Tongtian Sect had just recently captured a large batch of Demonic Tao cultivators, most of whom were at the Qi Cultivation Stage, with hundreds at the ninth level alone.

Jiang Cheng chose a deficit-ridden arsonist and murderer sentenced to one-hundred and fifty years.

He prepared to use him as the cover identity for the Electro-Purification Talisman.

The working principle of the Electro-Purification Talisman is quite simple; the preliminary work involves signing a contract with disciples of the Demon Sect to achieve a causal connection similar to that between Liu Qing and Liu Qing.

Then this causal connection is infused into the target that needs to be purified.

Because the mechanisms of healing talismans automatically bypass certain defenses, such as the Golden Light Talisman that stops spells but not healing arts, so if everything goes as expected, a person hit by the Electro-Purification Talisman will gain an additional identity of a Demonic Tao disciple.

A ninth level Qi Cultivation Stage Demonic Tao disciple + spiritual energy compressed into a liquid = Heavenly Tribulation incoming.

Although the theoretical aspects of talisman creation are worked out, a talisman can’t just be handed over to a user without experimentation.

Jiang Cheng needed an appropriate subject for the experiment.

This individual would ideally be at the Foundation Establishment stage, and because the Heavenly Tribulation adds up to the Heavenly Dao’s scrutiny, he would preferably not plan to advance to Core Formation.

The first person Jiang Cheng thought of was his counselor, Cui Zhifei.

Cui Zhifei, indeed, had an admirable Foundation Establishment cultivation level, but considering Cui Zhifei’s young age, he might eventually aim for Core Formation. If experimenting with the Electro-Purification Talisman increased the difficulty of his advancement, it would be a loss rather than a gain.

Aside from Cui Zhifei, Jiang Cheng was also acquainted with high-level cultivators like Gao Miao and Li Qingge.

But Gao Miao and Li Qingge were both at Core Formation stage, which didn’t fit the target group for the Electro-Purification Talisman.

After much consideration, Jiang Cheng thought of Li Youyuan!

Li Youyuan wasn’t young, and stuck in the later stages of Foundation Establishment for quite a while with little progress, he likely did not plan to advance to Core Formation.

Having him test the Electro-Purification Talisman would be most suitable.

Jiang Cheng took out a communication talisman and contacted Li Youyuan.

“Director Li, I have drawn a second-level Healing Talisman and would like to invite you to test it. I offer fifty thousand low-grade Spirit Stones for one try, what do you think?”

Fifty thousand low-grade Spirit Stones?

Jiang Cheng is very generous!

Li Youyuan did the math. He had outsourced the talisman drawing request from Prince Liang Wu to Jiang Ming of Lotus University, a third-level Talisman Master. Liang Wu provided him with five hundred thousand for this task, twenty thousand of which he outsourced, netting him a profit of three hundred thousand.

With the addition of Jiang Cheng’s fifty thousand, in the past ten or so days, he earned enough for a house!

Although Li Youyuan knew that Jiang Cheng’s talismans were somewhat outrageous, he had great confidence in his own late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation level.

Fortune favors the bold; he, Li Youyuan, would take these fifty thousand!

“Alright. Come to the lawn behind Lotus University’s teaching building tomorrow. The place is spacious, and I just happen to be meeting someone there as well.”

Jiang Cheng did not expect Li Youyuan to agree so decisively and enthusiastically.

He even thoughtfully picked the location for the experiment for him.

Jiang Cheng firmly replied, “Good, let’s not miss the appointment tomorrow.”

The next day, Li Youyuan and Prince Liang Wu met at the appointed place behind the Lotus University teaching building.

Li Youyuan demonstrated the usage and effect of the Land Naming Charm to Prince Liang Wu.

A pit one and a half meters wide, two meters long, and one meter deep, appeared on the flat lawn in an instant between the placement and retrieval motion of Li Youyuan’s talisman and storage bag.

Prince Liang Wu rubbed his eyes in amazement and exclaimed, “That’s amazing, how did you do that? Not only is it incredibly fast, but it’s also so precise! Damn, such a big pit, even if I were to smash it with a giant sword technique, it would still take a while!”

Li Youyuan stood with his hands behind his back and smiled, “When His Highness first entrusted the task to me, I was also very apprehensive and worried about not doing a good job. I’m fortunate not to have failed today, and I’m glad His Highness is satisfied.”

“Satisfied, very satisfied. With this digging speed, contracting the entire Capital’s burial services would be no sweat!”

After Prince Liang Wu finished his praise, he felt very fortunate and said, “All this for five hundred thousand, and Jiang Cheng actually dared to ask for three million? I’m lucky I didn’t go with Jiang Cheng for talisman drawing, otherwise I would’ve made a huge loss.”

Jiang Cheng arrived at the agreed-upon location.

Li Youyuan’s eyelid twitched as he tried to defend Jiang Cheng for Prince Liang Wu, “It’s not fair to say that, perhaps Jiang Cheng would have had a better way.”

“Bah, you did it in just one second with a release and a retrieval, what better way could he possibly have?”

“Jiang Cheng does indeed have a deep understanding when it comes to talisman drawing.”

Prince Liang Wu, harboring grand ambitions of unifying the funeral industry, generously instructed him, “You’re exaggerating.”
