Immortality: Starting with Plundering the Talents of Monsters

"Continue drawing the talisman until it is complete!"

Inside the talisman-making room, a refreshing and subtle fragrance of incense wafted through the air.

Xu Mo twitched his nose slightly, took a deep breath, and calmed down once again.

But this time, Xu Mo did not rush to put pen to paper.

Instead, he carefully recalled every detail of the talisman he had just made, searching for the reason for the failure.

"While the general process and techniques for drawing different types of talismans are largely the same..."

But the key lies in this subtle difference.

Xu Mo frowned, pondering to himself.

"Because of the long-term practice of drawing golden light talismans, I always unconsciously use similar techniques to process them."

Thinking about this, and after repeatedly recalling it, Xu Mo gradually began to understand.

Soon, he realized the mistake he had made in creating the talisman.

"So that's how it is. It must be because I channeled too much spiritual energy that the talisman creation failed."

Having successfully found the cause, Xu Mo didn't waste any time.

Immediately.

He picked up the talisman brush again and carefully drew the wind speed talisman.

Having learned from his previous failure, Xu Mo paid even more attention to the transmission of spiritual energy.

He was constantly careful not to let even a fraction of the spiritual energy in his body flow into the talisman brush.

After repeating the process of drawing the wind speed talisman once again, Xu Mo paused.

The final line of the first-tier mid-grade wind speed talisman was drawn.

"Finally, the talisman is complete!"

The green light gradually faded, and the patterns on the talisman paper became clear and distinct.

A first-tier, mid-grade wind speed talisman was successfully drawn and placed quietly on the talisman-making table.

Xu Mo held it in his hand, as if it were a precious treasure, and gently stroked it for a while.

"In the future, if we encounter danger during a beast tide, we will rely on this talisman."

After storing the Wind Speed ​​Talisman in his storage bag, Xu Mo didn't stop. He then inserted two more sticks of Concentration Incense into the incense burner.

"The Luo family's talisman-making task is not yet completed this month. Next, let's make a mid-grade first-tier Golden Light Talisman."

After another afternoon of talisman making, Xu Mo left the talisman-making room looking slightly tired.

Then, the daily routine of cultivation and practicing spells resumed.

……

……

The next day.

At dawn, the sunlight broke through the clouds and illuminated the eight-thousand-mile-long Purple Jade Ridge.

The soft sunlight shines on the vast mountains, gilding them with a light golden hue.

In the front yard of the Luo family, outside the secluded cave dwelling.

Xu Mo stood on the cliff, his first-grade Gengjin Cold Iron sword sheathed.

He just stood there quietly, doing nothing.

It subtly exuded a strong, chilling, and sharp aura, its murderous intent hidden yet not revealed.

The next moment, a flash of cold light appeared, followed by a golden glow.

The aura of Geng metal surged forth, and Xu Mo drew his Geng metal cold iron sword, unleashing it in an instant.

In the void, a faint golden line flashed, and the slender sword swung out tiny golden lightning fragments.

The air in the area ahead trembled, as if it had been cut in two by the sword.

"Gengting Shuyang Sword Technique, First Form - Cold Thunder Strike".

After using this sword move, Xu Mo quickly returned the Gengjin Cold Iron Sword to its sheath.

"The first move of this sword technique is extremely powerful; it can kill even cultivators of the same level with a single strike."

Xu Mo was secretly shocked as he looked at the exaggerated power of the sword.

"As expected of the sword technique I exchanged for fifty contribution points."

"This is truly a superior technique for killing."

However, the first move of the "Gengting Shuyang Sword Technique" is not without its flaws.

This sword technique can kill a cultivator of the same realm with a single strike.

However, it consumes a great deal of spiritual energy.

With Xu Mo's current spiritual energy reserves, he can only use it two or three times at most before it runs out.

Furthermore, to unleash the Frostbite Blade, one must first mobilize and nurture the Geng Metal spiritual power.

The sword moves may seem to happen in an instant, but in reality, there is a period of pre-cast animation.

It will take time to prepare.

"Actually... there are advantages and disadvantages, but it actually makes me feel more at ease."

Although half a year ago, Xu Mo had to do his best to hunt down the Golden Scale Lizard to obtain fifty contribution points in exchange for this sword technique.

However, the acquisition process only takes a short while.

If sword techniques acquired in this way are so extraordinary, Xu Mo would suspect that the Luo family had set a trap.

Or perhaps they were wary of its origin.

Let's call it a day.

Xu Mo put two fingers together and pointed them forward in a vague gesture.

The Gengjin Cold Iron Sword was drawn once more.

It floats horizontally in the air.

"Now that we've purchased a mid-grade Tier 1 longsword, we should make the most of it and not waste it."

He leaped onto the sword and landed firmly on his feet.

"Now, I am also an immortal who can fly on a sword!"

Xu Mo stood with his hands behind his back, his robes fluttering, wearing a plain white long gown, exuding an extraordinary and refined air.

Anyone who sees him will be able to help but exclaim, "What a handsome young man!"

Xu Mo secretly made hand seals, controlling the direction of the Geng Tinghan Iron Sword's flight.

"Now, I have enough spirit stones to buy a Golden Shield Sawfish."

As Xu Mo's means of plundering, which he relied on for survival, he had been using it for the past six months.

After receiving my monthly salary from Luo Lingyue each time.

Xu Mo then took the spirit stones to the fishing grounds to buy a juvenile Golden Shield Sawfish.

Luo Zhenhai, who was in charge of managing the fishing grounds, had his doubts.

However, Xu Mo's statements were always logically consistent, leaving no room for criticism.

Initially, it was done under the guise of observing and studying the first-tier mid-grade Golden Light Talisman.

Later, as the incidents occurred more frequently, he used Luo Zhenhai's previous warnings as an excuse.

It is said that consuming the Golden Shield Sawfish would greatly benefit Xu Mo, a cultivator who practices metal magic.

In the past six months, although Xu Mo's cultivation level has not broken through to the fifth level of Qi Refining, it has indeed been steadily increasing.

Luo Zhenhai had witnessed Luo Zhenhai's repeated visits to the fishing grounds.

Gradually, they came to believe Xu Mo's explanation and stopped doubting it.

[Talent: Scaled Golden Shield (Green 7/10)]

During this period, Xu Mo purchased a total of seven juvenile Golden Shield Sawfish.

His [Scaled Golden Shield] is also about to be upgraded.

"Deacon of Zhenhai, I'm here again to buy a juvenile Golden Shield Sawfish."

Xu Mo and Luo Zhenhai had already had many dealings, and every time he came, he would always offer a few spirit stones.

Therefore, Luo Zhenhai was very welcoming of this skilled talisman-making guest.

Five more low-grade spirit stones landed in Luo Zhenhai's palm. Xu Mo respectfully said:

"Deacon of Zhenhai, still the same as always."

Luo Zhenhai left the house at the edge of the fishing ground and used his water control technique to catch a golden shield sawfish.

"Huh? I just caught a fish, why is it causing such a commotion?"

Luo Zhenhai let out a soft "hmm" and looked at the fishpond with a puzzled expression.

At the same time, Xu Mo followed Luo Zhenhai's gaze and looked over curiously.

In the fish farm, eight fish ponds shimmered with light of different colors.

Beneath the previously calm water surface, dark shadows were revealed.

Numerous powerful and terrifying auras emanated from them without any attempt to conceal them.

Even Xu Mo, who possessed the fourth level of Qi Refining cultivation, felt his hair stand on end and shudder with fear.
