Chapter 67: Chapter 56 Xuan Yin Sect’s Response 1

Watching Li Yuan Qing depart, Lin Yi looked down at the storage bag in his hand with a smile. He had been planning on buying one in Qing Yun City, but now he had one without any effort.

He thought back to when he first arrived in this world with nothing, hardly daring to spend the few spirit stones he had left. Now, not only did he have the much-desired storage bag, but he also had thousands of spirit stones to spend. Life was truly getting better.

However, the spirit stones earned from making talismans were enough only for the Qi Refinement Realm. By the Foundation Establishment Stage, when flying through the sky with flying swords becomes possible, even an ordinary flying sword spiritual artifact costs dozens of medium grade spirit stones.

A flying sword is like one’s vehicle and weapon, after all, who wouldn’t want to have an impressive one just like Gold Sword Zen Ren, his flying sword shining with gold, making a grand statement.

Back on Earth, he couldn’t get a luxury sports car, but now in the Cultivation World with his golden finger, not getting a good looking flying sword would be a great shame to his identity as a transmigrator.

Lost in thought, Lin Yi stood in the small forest. After wiping some drool from his mouth, he glanced around to make sure nobody was watching and then quickly moved away.

Although the idea was enticing, having a noticeable flying sword would draw too much attention. It was better to keep a low profile.

Just like Gold Sword Zen Ren, who flies away on his sword after killing and robbing, everyone in the surrounding village would see the golden light and associate it with him.

Lin Yi put the storage bag close to his body, then headed over to the Outer Sect Law Hall. It was already crowded with people signing up for the fighting and hoping to be rewarded with cultivation techniques.

Seeing the bustling scene, he decided to wait a while before exchanging for the cultivation techniques, focusing for now on creating talismans and improving his abilities.

The next day, rumors began to circulate in Qing Yun City. The Xuan Yin Sect was responding to the incidents causing disturbance, stating that they had nothing to do with it.

They claimed the mishaps were all set-up by the Liu Yun Sect as an excuse to start a war. They urged fellow cultivators not to believe the rumors and called for a joint effort to punish the Liu Yun Sect, a cult disguised as a righteous sect.

Upon hearing the Xuan Yin Sect’s response, many Loose Cultivators and other members of various sects started doubting the real instigator of these disturbances.

But the Liu Yun Sect was unphased. Utilizing the Green Jade Treasure Mirror

for its projection, they displayed the evidence they had gathered.

Even though the heretic cultivators controlling the disturbances had no identity plaques, their techniques, odd markings, testimonies and more pointed towards the Xuan Yin Sect being the culprits.

In Qing Yun City, they exhibited the bodies of cultivators which were merely shells, having been consumed by the disturbances. They had been arranged to reflect the lifespan of the Nascent Soul Ancestor from the Xuan Yin Sect.

The most undeniable evidence was the translucent apparitions formed by the disturbances, which had been eased by Rebirth Charm. Some apparitions were those of minor sect cultivators who had been brutally massacred by the Xuan Yin Sect.

These translucent apparitions could not be seen without the Spirit Wood Technique and could not be recorded even by Image Recording Stone, yet they had been completely captured by the miraculous Green Jade Treasure Mirror.

The disclosure of this evidence augmented the anger of the Liu Yun Sect’s disciples. The Xuan Yin Sect had committed atrocities and then tried to frame the victims. It was a huge provocation.

As for these rumors, Lin Yi paid them no mind and even kept a lower profile than usual. He decided to only make Exorcism Charms and Rebirth Charms for Li Yuan Qing, and not sell talismans in Qing Yun City.

The reason these translucent apparitions could appear was due to his Grandmaster Level Rebirth Charms. Although many cultivators had basic talisman paper, most of them were of the lowest level.

Moreover, due to the inexpensive materials of the Rebirth Charms, even though they sold well, their price never increased. Especially the higher quality Rebirth Charms were in even less demand. Most cultivators who use the Rebirth Charms did so simply for psychological comfort, nobody would buy the high-quality ones.

It was these factors that made almost all Talisman Masters avoid improving the production level of the Rebirth Charms.

Those low-level Rebirth Charms essentially couldn’t purify Evil Spirits, at most they could eliminate some resentment from corpses. If the Xuan Yin Sect were to find out that he had made this batch of Rebirth Charms, he was undoubtedly in for trouble.

In the ensuing period, he devoted himself entirely to talisman making, even practicing in his Cave Mansion for only two or three days, breaking through the Great Achievement Level of his Gold Finger and Cloud Rain Technique to the Grandmaster Level. His cultivation progress at the Qi Refinement Sixth Layer also improved a bit.

However, after advancing to the Qi Refinement Sixth Layer, Lin Yi could clearly feel a deficiency in the spiritual energy provided daily by the fifteen Spirit Stones in his Cave Mansion, causing his cultivation progress to slow down significantly.

He estimated that he would have to upgrade to a higher-level Cave Mansion next time. The price would rise from fifteen to forty Spirit Stones per day, more than doubling.

During the downtime from talisman making, he also visited the Outer Sect Law Hall several times, only to find it still overcrowded. He estimated that there would be no shortage of Outer Sect disciples signing up for the expedition this time.

The Liu Yun Sect had tens of thousands of Qi Refinement Realm disciples, more than half of which were Outer Sect disciples, performing various tasks that maintain the operation of the Sect.

As time went by, a month gradually passed. On the day before the departure,

Lin Yi handed over the talismans he had painstakingly produced to Li Yuan Qing: 2,500 Exorcism Charms and 500 Rebirth Charms.

Seeing these powerful talismans, Li Yuan Qing revealed a satisfied expression and carefully instructed, “After we depart, you can continue to make more talismans. Someone will come to collect them every month.”

“This man is my most respected Senior Brother Zhou Yun Feng, also the Hall Master of your Sinong Palace. You can confidently entrust him with them. He will not leak any information about you and he will be responsible for delivering the talismans to the battlefield.”

“Okay, senior brother, I’ve got it.” Lin Yi nodded. From Li Yuan Qing’s words, he could sense the admiration he had for his senior brother. It’s just a pity that Zhou Yun Feng, who had reached the Perfect Foundation Building, had suffered a setback and stopped his cultivation at this stage, unable to achieve the Golden Core.

Li Yuan Qing put the three thousand talismans into his Storage Bag, preparing to bring out the Spirit Stones when a look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on his face, as if he had something to say but hesitated.

“Senior brother, we’re already familiar with each other, feel free to speak your mind.” Lin Yi noticed Li Yuan Qing’s hesitation and laughed.

Hearing this, Li Yuan Qing hesitated no more, shook his head and said, “Actually, it’s not a big deal. Those guys at the Inner Sect Affairs Hall are blind cheapskates, they say that the talismans I purchased were too expensive, they don’t approve.”

“So, the price of Exorcism Charms will be lowered to one and a half Spirit Stones, and Rebirth Charms to one Spirit Stone. But don’t worry, I will make up for the difference.

“Senior brother, there’s no need, I am quite satisfied with this price.” Lin Yi quickly declined, it was a common occurrence on Earth for reimbursements to be rejected. He had felt the price was too high before, but he hadn’t the heart to refuse.

The current price was still very profitable, as he only had to invest time and spiritual power, and nothing else.

“I feel really bad about this, I’ll leave first.” Li Yuan Qing said awkwardly, handing Lin Yi the corresponding Spirit Stones before turning and leaving on his flying sword.

Watching Li Yuan Qing’s hurried departure, Lin Yi couldn’t help but find it amusing. The disciples under Golden Sword Zen Ren were indeed a bit too upright.

Therefore, with Zen Ren in place, he didn’t believe for a second that the Liu Yun Sect had single-handedly orchestrated this Evil Spirits incident. Such a big move, how could it possibly be kept from a person like Zen Ren, who was upright but not foolish..
