Chapter 237: Talisman Master

Ji Yu’s suddenly enlarged scimitars slashed down heavily after he channelled Elemental Energy into it, attempting to slice apart the golden giant sword above Lou Mu Yan’s head, and, while it was at it, also take her head.

Seeing the scimitars slashing down with boundless power, as if it could defeat Lou Mu Yan as easily as crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood, Luo Li and the others all stared at Lou Mu Yan’s figure with nervousness, for fear that something would happen to her.
But right now, even if any one of them wanted to intervene, it would be too late.

Lou Mu Yan’s eyes were like chilling stars.
She narrowed her eyes dangerously—this Ji Yu actually wanted to behead her.
It made an unprecedented killing intent rise within her.

“Break!” She no longer suppressed the Purple-Gold Spirit Flame in her body and allowed it to dance in her dan’tian.
A sliver of a natal fire origin overflowed from her meridians and merged with the Spiritual Energy, channelling it into her Natal Magic Tool.

The golden giant sword that guarded above her head hummed cheerfully under the support of the Purple-Gold Spirit Flame, and turned into a soft sword, wrapping around the huge scimitars that had swung down.

[CLANG!] There was only a slight noise when the two touched.

Just when everyone thought that Lou Mu Yan might be hurt by the sword aura of the scimitars, they saw her golden giant sword softly wrap around the scimitars, preventing it from moving half a step, and they all showed a frightened expression.

Just what sort of Saint Tool did Lou Mu Yan own? It could even change shape freely?

Ji Yu’s eyes revealed a bit of horror.
He found that the connection between himself and the scimitar Saint Tools was actually slowly weakening, and the power of the scimitar Saint Tools were also fading.
Just what was happening?

Lou Mu Yan looked at the extremely soft and flexible soft sword in surprise and couldn’t resist holding her forehead.
Was this still a sword? Why was it so much like a rope.

Because the Natal Magic Tool was connected to her mind, so she could deeply feel its excitement and hunger at this time.
Those dark golden scimitars were precisely the food it wanted to forcibly obtain.

With the help of that wisp of Purple-Gold Spirit Flame, the heat of the golden sword continued to rise, gradually blending with the scimitars.

“What? How could this be? My Saint Tool.” The connection between the scimitars and Ji Yu had completely cut off, and his mouth was wide open, while his expression was filled with incredulity.

Lou Mu Yan blinked.
The Heavenly Frost Golden Essence used to refine her Natal Magic Tool was a Divine Rank Spiritual Item born alongside the Purple-Gold Spirit Flame to begin with.
The two of them were subdued and refined by her, so although she was very surprised that the golden sword could now borrow the power of the Purple-Gold Spirit Flame to devour other weapons of the same attribute, but it was understandable.

There was a smile in her eyes.
Who knew that Ji Yu’s scimitars had accidentally activated the devouring talent of her Natal Magic Tool.

In the future, the Natal Magic Tool could not only be cultivated and upgraded in her body, but it could also be upgraded by devouring high-level Magic Tools of the same attribute.

She had only heard of such a Magic Tool in the Immortal Cultivation World, but she had never seen it before.
This time, it actually happened to her own Natal Magic Tool, which made her unable to resist rejoicing.

Ji Yu’s expression was ugly, and the voice in his mind grew stronger and stronger.
His gaze swept over the people on Lou Mu Yan’s side with some fear, and his eyes revealed a firm and vicious look.

Today, even if he won Lou Mu Yan by using all his trump cards, but there were still Luo Ye, Si Nan, and the others.
It was simply impossible for him to truly kill her.
He looked at the scimitars that he had lost connection with grimly, then resolutely took out a talisman from his interspatial ring.

He channelled Elemental Energy into it, his heart in pain at using this, and with a tight squeeze, his figure suddenly blurred and quickly disappeared in this forest.
His aura no longer existed within thousands of li.

“It’s the Wind Riding Talisman.” Si Nan said with furrowed brows.

Lou Mu Yan knew that there were actually three types of Smiths on this Continent.
One was simply a pure Smith, one was a Leather Armour Master, and the final one was a Talisman Master1.

Smiths mainly refined attack and defence-type Magic Tools, and usually needed Spars for refining to refine them; Leader Armour Masters were different as they mainly used Demonic Beast skin and bone as the main materials for refining and were mostly refined into leather armour worn on the body for defence.
Meanwhile, a Talisman Master mainly refined talismans, sealing some spells or Arrays into the talisman which could be used for battle and could also assist in cultivating and saving one’s life.

Among the three professions, the pure Smith was the most popular, followed by Talisman Master, then finally Leather Armour Master.

Of course, if there was a Sword Master with excelling talent, then they could also learn all three.

“What’s the Wind Riding Talisman? Used to escape?” Lou Mu Yan looked at Si Nan and asked.

As an Almighty of the Immortal Cultivation World, she could refine talismans, but the Talisman Masters on this Continent were super rare professions like Spiritual Wine Masters.
Yan’zhou Kingdom had no Talisman Masters at all, and there were very few related records, so she wasn’t very clear about the details of Talisman Masters.

Seeing Ji Yu take out the Wind Riding Talisman just now, she felt a familiar aura.
It shouldn’t be too different from the talismans she knew of.

Si Nan pierced the enemy’s heart directly with his golden foil folding fan, then the fan returned to his hand without a drop of blood, “The Wind Riding Talisman can be regarded as a Middle-Grade Talisman.
It can improve the Sword Master’s speed by ten to thirty times.
Ji Yu used it to escape.”

Lou Mu Yan lowered her head and pondered.
It could increase the user’s speed by ten to thirty times.
It seemed to be even more powerful than the Divine Movement Talisman of the Spiritual World.
It seemed that not everything on this Continent was inferior to the Immortal Cultivation World.
There were still many things she needed to learn and understand.

“Don’t worry, Ji Yu’s younger brother, Ji Xuan, would rather him die and won’t help him.
What’s more we’ve killed all his men now, so he won’t be able to achieve anything in the future.” Seeing her lower her head in thought, Si Nan guessed that she was afraid that after Ji Yu ran away, he would become a serious concern in the future, so he spoke out to reassure her.

Lou Mu Yan raised her head and chuckled: “I’m just thinking about the Wind Riding Talisman.
No one can say for certain whether Ji Yu can achieve anything or not in the future.
It’s useless to think too much now that the person’s run away.”

Ji Yu was ruthless and decisive in doing things.
This time, by letting him escape, it had indeed left future trouble.

But Lou Mu Yan didn’t think too much about it.
‘When the boat reached the bridge, it would naturally pass underneath without much trouble2’.
She just thought that the next time she met Ji Yu, she must not let him run away.

“The Wind Riding Talisman is rarely found in the outside world.
Ji Yu’s maternal Clan has a Guest Grade 3 Talisman Master, so that talisman must have been given to him by his maternal grandfather.”

Si Nan paused, then said: “The requirements for becoming a Talisman Master are very harsh.
Only a Smith that had comprehended the Fire Element, Metal Element and Earth Element can refine them, so talismans are a very rare thing.

“Then isn’t a Talisman Master very popular and makes a lot of money?” Lou Mu Yan’s eyes were filled with bright light.

The corner of Si Nan’s lips twitched.
A mysterious and unfathomable Talisman Master seemed to have just become a tool for making money coming from Lou Mu Yan’s mouth.
If there were pedantic and inflexible people here that stubbornly suck to outworn rules and ideas, they would definitely curse her for being a disgrace to the cultured.

“Actually, these special occupations aren’t something one can become just by having talent.
Although many people compete for the things that they refine and they practically have no shortage of money, but the initial investment cost is also huge.
Without some capital for consumption to advance in grade, one could only waste their talent.” Si Nan said a little more indirectly.

Lou Mu Yan nodded.
It was indeed far too difficult to advance in grade without a strong family background or without their own fortuitous opportunities.

For example, a Talisman Master—just the blood essence of various Demonic Beasts and various beast skins as main materials in the early stages already cost a lot of money.

Her eyes shone brightly.
After she went to a Sect, she could study the talisman skills of this Continent a bit.
Although she wasn’t very interested in Smithing, but because talismans were related to Arrays, so she was rather thorough in her research of talismans.

1-.- time to go back and correct each time I used the word ‘talisman’ into something different… Idk, maybe into ‘rune’.
I think all along, the author has been using the word ‘rune’.
Oh the difficulties of grasping the nuances in another language when they use practically the exact same characters.
Anyways, the talismans mentioned here are those rectangular pieces of paper that you might have seen before with unique characters and symbols drawn on them.
Apologies if you do see some discrepancies for a while since I might not get to correcting some terminology from previous chapters for a bit~

2things will work itself out eventually.
