The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 240 Purple-Gold Thunder Gourd

Li Jingxiao and Jingrong played around for a while before he seriously watched his second sister practice her sword dance.

He offered a few pointers and compliments.

Jingyue was only nine years old, and the little girl cared a lot about her older brother's praise.

She glanced smugly at Jing Rong, which made Jing Rong snort and turn away from her.

Li Jingxiao also gave Qin Zhong a few pointers, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional, thinking that this kid's greatest talent was probably studying.

If I take the imperial examination in the future, I might actually pass the exam and become a Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest level of the imperial examinations).

Moreover, upon closer examination, Qin Zhong's path of taking the imperial examination was actually the most suitable and correct one.

Li Jingxiao then took out a table, chairs, writing brush, ink, and talisman paper from his inventory.

This is to check the younger sister's level in the art of talismans.

Jingxi immediately tensed up.

As he walked to the table and picked up the talisman brush, he didn't rush to draw any talismans.

Instead, he took a few deep breaths, circulated the Quanzhen Heart Sutra within his body, and calmed himself down.

Qin Zhong was also very perceptive and ground the ink for Jingxi.

A few minutes later, Jingxi nodded to Qin Zhong, picked up a brush, dipped it in cinnabar ink, and first drew talismans for exorcising evil spirits, controlling fire, and controlling thunder.

They can all be drawn in one go.

Li Jingxiao nodded in satisfaction and said, "Very good, my younger sister has basically achieved some success."

After saying that, he had Jingxi draw a golden light talisman on her body.

Lee Kyung-hyo would be even more satisfied once Kyung-hee was able to draw the Golden Light Talisman.

In his excitement, he taught Jingxi to draw the "Three Lights Talisman" and the "Invisibility Talisman".

Li Jingxiao knows the art of invisibility, so the invisibility talisman is very easy for him.

Moreover, the invisibility talisman he drew was more effective and lasted longer than the invisibility talismans in Maoshan talismanic arts.

As for the Three Lights Talisman, it was learned from a Taoist priest who served the retired emperor.

He had previously invited two Taoist priests from the Emperor Emeritus's side to visit Zhenwu Temple.

Those two naturally wished they could discuss philosophy with Li Jingxiao every day, but unfortunately Li Jingxiao didn't have the time to instruct them all the time.

So we only met twice.

Li Jingxiao obtained the Three Lights Talisman, and the two Taoist priests did indeed make progress in their cultivation under his guidance.

Both sides benefited, and their relationship naturally became much closer.

The Three Lights Talisman can dispel negative energies such as evil spirits, malevolent spirits, and malevolent spirits.

It can also treat evil diseases, poisoning, and ghostly illnesses, and even cure intractable diseases such as cadaveric disease and plague.

It can be said that this talisman is both offensive and defensive, and can suppress most of the strange creatures and zombies.

If Jingxi could paint it, selling one for over a hundred taels of silver would be a piece of cake.

Golden Light Talismans and Invisibility Talismans can sell for several hundred taels of silver.

Upon hearing this, Jingxi became even more motivated to draw the talisman.

Even Jingyue and Jingrong, who never liked drawing talismans, came over and listened attentively to Li Jingxiao's explanation.

They were afraid of missing out on the opportunity to make some extra money in the future.

Although Li Jingxiao had said long ago that each of his three sisters would receive a dowry of 10 taels of silver when they got married.

But when given the opportunity to earn money, even a little thing like Jingrong knows that what he earns is truly his own.

Upon hearing that the Golden Light Mantra could be sold for several hundred taels of silver, Jingyue and Jingrong insisted on learning the Golden Light Mantra themselves.

Once you've learned the Golden Light Mantra, it will be much easier to draw the talismans associated with it.

The Golden Light Mantra isn't actually as difficult to learn as you might imagine.

Li Jingxiao has already cultivated the Golden Light Mantra to level 5, and with a master like him personally teaching him.

So it wasn't long before Jingyue was able to release a golden light that protected her body.

However, in Li Jingxiao's eyes, his second sister's golden light spell was more of a pretty-looking halo than a defensive circle.

If it were him, he could break it with a flick of his finger.

But in the eyes of the little ones, it was the very essence of Taoism.

Moreover, in Li Jingxiao's hands, the Golden Light Mantra is more defensive in nature.

However, for ordinary cultivators, this spell is both offensive and defensive.

It has a strong restraining effect on evil spirits and can also dispel demonic obstacles and protect the body from evil.

It can even help in cultivating thunder magic to some extent.

Some sects even regard this incantation as a prerequisite for cultivating thunder magic.

But Li Jingxiao has no shortage of offensive tactics.

Therefore, as one practices the Golden Light Mantra, it becomes more focused on defense.

Although Jingyue had learned the Golden Light Mantra, it wasn't so easy for her to draw it on talisman paper and create the Golden Light Mantra talisman.

After failing more than ten times, the little girl looked dejected and disappointed.

Li Jingxiao smiled and shook his head. He had originally wanted to hold his second sister's hand and draw a talisman with his true energy from her hand, so that she could experience it for herself.

Then I let her play by herself and focused my attention on my younger sister.

I started teaching her to draw the 'Three Lights Symbol'.

After thinking about it, he simply took out a level 20 Qingyun Brush from his inventory and gave it to his older sister.

Azure Cloud Brush - Spell power +20%, spell cost -20%, talisman crafting success rate +20%.
With this treasure, Jingxi failed three more times, and on the fourth attempt, with Li Jingxiao's encouraging gaze, she finally succeeded in drawing a 'Three Lights Talisman'.

Jingxi was so excited that she almost jumped up, and her smile was absolutely radiant.

Jingyue, Jingrong, and Qin Zhong were both envious and happy for Jingxi.

The surrounding maids and old women all craned their necks and looked over with curiosity.

Unfortunately, with four Yellow Turban warriors standing around, no one dared to step forward.

Because of these Yellow Turban warriors, although they were newly recruited servants, they were all very obedient.

Moreover, the warehouse, study, and entrances and exits of the third and fourth courtyards were all guarded by Yellow Turban warriors.

Normally, these strongmen remain motionless, looking like statues, but if anyone dares to break in, they will definitely be captured by the Yellow Turban strongmen.

Or just kill them.

After Jingxi and the other three finished celebrating, Jingrong never stood on ceremony with his elder brother, Li Jingxiao.

Seeing that her older sister had received a treasure, she immediately grabbed Li Jingxiao's big hands with both of them.

While shaking, he muttered, "My brother is biased. He gives the treasure to my sister-in-law and my older sister, but not to me."

After saying that, she shouted, "I want a baby too!"

Jing Yue and Qin Zhong both looked over.

Li Jingxiao rolled his eyes at his younger sister, but the more the little one didn't know how to be polite, the happier he, as the older brother, sometimes became.

When Jing Rong saw that Jing Yue was also looking over, she immediately became anxious.

He shouted at Jingyue, "Second sister, you're not allowed to take it from me!"

After saying that, he pointed to the necklace around Jing Yue's neck.

She said angrily, "Don't think I don't know, the necklace my brother gave you is also a treasure."

Jing Yue was taken aback, then her face flushed slightly with embarrassment.

Jingyue has been wearing this ruby ​​necklace around her neck for almost two years.

Even the most oblivious girl noticed that as soon as she took off the necklace, her mind seemed to suddenly become a little duller.

Once you put it back on, the feeling of learning things faster will come back.

So when Jingyue heard her younger sister say that, she smiled awkwardly.

Upon seeing this, Jing Rong couldn't help but snort.

Then she took Li Jingxiao's hand and said, "Big brother is biased. Big brother doesn't love me."

Li Jingxiao shook his head helplessly, according to the little guy's explanation.

I think I was indeed biased.

He said with a smile, "Alright, alright, I'll give you one too."

After thinking about it, I realized that my younger sister actually has a high level of understanding.

But she's still very young; her body is far from fully developed, more like a sapling. He took out a level 20 ruby ​​ring, just look at Jingrong's little hands.

It's too big even if you wear it on your thumb.

Jingrong stretched out her little hand and gestured, and sure enough, she became even angrier.

Li Jingxiao had no choice but to take out a purple-gold gourd.

The little guy immediately changed his expression, his eyes shining as he looked at Li Jingxiao.

Li Jingxiao shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself that his little sister was really too clever and cunning.

He casually tossed a level 20 ruby ​​ring with +2 Constitution and +15% spell power to Jing Yue.

Only then did he place the purple-gold gourd in Jing Rong's hand.

He repeatedly explained, "This treasure can subdue demons and monsters. Just shout 'Save' at the mouth of the gourd and it will capture the demon inside."

In the blink of an eye, it will vanish into nothingness.

Speaking of this, Li Jingxiao suddenly thought that since the gourd could absorb poisonous fog, it might also be able to absorb the power of thunder.

For a moment, I was startled when I felt a small hand suddenly reach out, trying to snatch it away.

Lee Kyung-hyo instinctively wanted to avoid it, but in the end he pretended not to notice and let Kyung-yong snatch it away.

Now that the little guy has learned thunder magic, he will definitely learn to subdue demons and monsters on his own in the future.

Since that's the case, why not try making a lightning gourd? That seems like a good idea.

He casually took out another purple-gold-red gourd from his inventory.

A flash of lightning appeared in Li Jingxiao's eyes, and a bolt of lightning shot out from his hand.

It suddenly and continuously darted into the gourd.

Seeing that it could really absorb the lightning, Li Jingxiao looked up and the sky quickly became covered with dark clouds.

He casually tossed the gourd into the air, and a bolt of lightning struck the gourd, which had flown two or three hundred meters away.

Soon, the gourd, which was originally bright red with purple-gold runes, absorbed 10 bolts of lightning in succession.

It turned into a purple-gold-blue gourd.

When it fell back into Li Jingxiao's hands, Jingrong looked at the gourd again and couldn't take her eyes off it.

Li Jingxiao smiled and shook his head, taking out a rope made of gold thread and red silk from the game.

When the gourd was tied in the middle and handed to Jing Rong,

As expected, the little girl casually returned the gourd in her hand to Li Jingxiao.

Then he happily took the lightning gourd and hung it on his waist.

Seeing that his elder brother often wore a red gourd around his waist, he now wore a purple-gold-blue gourd.

Suddenly feeling as powerful as his older brother, he burst into laughter.

As for Qin Zhong, Li Jingxiao only thought for a few seconds before giving him a level 10 'Azure Cloud Fan'.

Incidentally, I also taught him a technique for applying pressure points.

However, a fan can also be used as a longsword.

But using it well is actually more difficult.

Although Qin Zhong is well-behaved and sensible, it doesn't mean he's stupid.

It's obvious at a glance that although this fan is also a treasure, it's far inferior to Jing Rong's Purple Gold Gourd.

Li Jingxiao gave an awkward smile, thought for a moment, and then casually tossed a ruby ​​necklace to the little guy.

Incidentally, I also gave Jingxi a ruby ​​necklace.

She also made Jingxi take out two fire-controlling talismans that she had drawn herself.

Let Qin Zhong activate one first, then take the Azure Cloud Fan and activate the second one.

Not only Qin Zhong himself clearly felt that the second one was more powerful.

Jingxi, Jingyue, and Jingrong could also tell the extraordinary nature of the 'Azure Cloud Fan' from the size of the flames.

Qin Zhong immediately put the 'Azure Cloud Fan' away like a treasure.

After settling things off with his three younger sisters and brother-in-law, Li Jingxiao took them to breakfast and then instructed Jingxi and Jingyue to keep an eye on Jingrong.

Don't let her misuse the purple-gold-blue gourd.

Upon hearing this, Jingxi and Jingyue immediately rolled their eyes at Li Jingxiao.

She thought to herself that her older brother spoiled his younger sister too much. Even though he knew she was unreliable, he still gave her such a powerful treasure.

In the end, the two sisters had to clean up the mess themselves.

Li Jingxiao gave an awkward smile and immediately flew to Maoshan invisibly.

But instead of rushing into the Demon-Sealing Tower, he went to see the sect leader first.

When Xuanming Zhenren heard that Li Jingxiao wanted to destroy the pair of vengeful ghosts, his lips twitched a few times, and a smile actually appeared on his face.

However, the old Taoist priest himself was unaware that he had laughed, but Li Jingxiao immediately guessed what he was thinking.

So he cupped his hands in greeting, and without waiting for the old Taoist priest to say anything more, he turned and left.

Master Xuanming originally wanted to have a few words with Li Jingxiao and advise him to be more tolerant, but unexpectedly Li Jingxiao just left like that.

He opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end he just sighed.

Then, looking at his disciple, he said, "Disciple, your martial uncle is good in every way, except that he is a bit too strict."

The boy was taken aback, then quickly lowered his head.

He didn't want to speak ill of Li Jingxiao behind his back.

I don't want Li Jingxiao to find out, or I won't get any good opportunities in the future.

Not to mention, although he didn't actually see Li Jingxiao very often.

But basically every time they met, my uncle would give me a few spirit dates.

Eating one is enough to be equivalent to ten or fifteen days of one's own cultivation.

Therefore, no matter how high the position of Master Xuanming is in the hearts of the Daoist disciples, it is still not as close as their senior uncle Li Jingxiao.

Seeing that his servant boy remained silent, Master Xuanming sighed.

But in reality, the old man was incredibly happy.

Those mother and child ghosts were arguably the most troublesome thing for him.

This involves a long-standing story from the past, which even the old Taoist priest, as the sect leader, cannot easily tell others.

Therefore, successive sect leaders have basically ignored the pair of fierce ghosts, mother and child.

However, the longer it is delayed, the greater the potential dangers and troubles may become in the future.

As for whether locking them up would change the mother and son's minds, Master Xuanming felt he didn't have that ability.

Li Jingxiao actually had no shortage of experience, which is why he was determined to destroy the pair of vengeful ghosts.

Otherwise, they would definitely try every means to turn this mother and child into their own experience package.

Upon entering the Demon-Sealing Tower, Li Jingxiao, as usual, inspected the Jade Shield Fire Thunder Sword.

Only after confirming that the sword hadn't lost any durability did I go up to the first floor.

They took out steamed buns and wine, and waited for Dang Kang to have a big meal. Soon, he got 12 experience points from the wild boar monster.

I also gained 9 experience points from the three peach blossom fairies.

Just as they were about to go up to the fourth floor, Bai Bi suddenly curtsied and said, "Master, my sister and I rehearsed a song and dance yesterday."

If you are truly interested, you might as well listen to a song before you leave.

Li Jingxiao rolled his eyes at the three female demons after hearing this, knowing immediately that they were trying to take advantage of him again.

Moreover, when Li Jingxiao was playing cards with his wife at home last night, he suddenly remembered what had happened inside the Demon Locking Tower.

Perhaps the patriarchs of Maoshan in the underworld and heaven can see what's happening inside the pagoda.

If I were to stay here and have an affair with three peach blossom fairies...

Not only will he be laughed at, but even if he goes to heaven in the future, he might be laughed at for the rest of his life.

So Li Jingxiao shook his head directly.

But then I thought, maybe I could turn watching the striptease into a competition.

So after shaking his head, Li Jingxiao took out an incense stick from his inventory, stuck it in a steamed bun, and lit it.

The three peach blossom fairies immediately turned red with anger.
