“?”

Chu Liang looked at Wen Yulong, his face serious.

Wen Yulong looked at Chu Liang, beads of sweat rolling down his face like soybeans.

The atmosphere slightly froze for a moment before Wen Yulong stuttered, “Senior Brother, I assure you that my goal is to maximize the power of the magic artifact through refining. The result of my refining will definitely surpass that of others! So, there’s inevitably a higher risk involved… but if you want a safer alternative, you can choose someone else…”

“Seventy Sword Coins, I will let you handle this task,” Chu Liang abruptly said.

Such a scheme for artifact refining proxies, while convenient for disciples in need of refinement, serves mostly to provide experience for those talented in the art.

A young disciple like Wen Yulong, who has failed a lot, still being up for hire… Unless the Sect Leader of Shu Mountain is his grandfather, it simply means that Elder Chuan Jian holds this disciple in high regard.

It suggests that he sees potential in him.

Although the Life Origin Green Leaf is slightly valuable, it’s not very important to Chu Liang, and he doesn’t mind betting on it.

But there must be a price cut.

He knows that part of the refining reward fee goes to Chuan Jian Hall; the disciples can’t negotiate this. But another part is the disciple’s payment, which can indeed be deliberated.

So, a slight cut.

If the refinement is successful, he will only have to pay seventy Sword Coins. And if it’s a failure, he can ask for a refund. This is a risk he can barely bear.

Wen Yulong didn’t hide his expression, which instantly looked like he was about to cry, “Senior Brother Chu, I only receive thirty coins as personal reward…”

Chu Liang’s cut hit precisely the artery.

Chu Liang didn’t say anything, just looked at him quietly.

After struggling for a while, Wen Yulong nodded, “Alright, alright. I will take this task. Don’t worry, I will put all my efforts into it.”

He seemed pretty desperate for refining work. It was evident that he hadn’t received an order in a long time.

Chu Liang nodded lightly, “Then I leave it to Junior Brother Wen.”

After leaving the Life Origin Green Leaf and paying the Sword Coins, he got up and left.

Despite the slight cut, the cost nearly emptied his savings. The stock of Spirit Gathering Pills for Big Head Baby was also depleted. The urgency to earn money piled upon him again.

“Sigh…”

Walking out of Chuan Jian Hall, he couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.

Even a mighty hero can’t escape the words hunger, cold, and poverty. Money makes the man, poverty makes it hard for the man.

When can he achieve freedom with Sword Coins?

Back to Silver Sword Peak, he noticed an additional tiny paper crane on the table. He unfolded it to find a letter from Jiang Yuebai, with just a few simple words.

“Today, Chen hour, old place.”

…

“Senior Sister Jiang, long time no see, I miss you very much.”

In the Water Curtain Cave of Pagoda Peak, Chu Liang met Jiang Xiaobai again.

She was dressed in a simple wide-sleeved long dress, hair neatly coiled up, both temples like clouds, with the usual stunning beauty in her brows and eyes.

Compared to their previous meetings, she was more open in Chu Liang’s presence. She chuckled lightly and said, “Humph, all I can see is that you really want to learn Divine Skills.”

“Isn’t that also to catch up with fellow senior brothers and sisters?” Chu Liang replied without batting an eye.

“Enough.” Jiang Xiaobai became a little serious, “Today, I am going to teach you something difficult. Be prepared.”

“Ok.” Chu Liang nodded.

In fact, after teaching Chu Liang the Hundred Swords Technique last time, Immortal Jiang had a brief period of self-doubt.

It’s a good thing in her mind that Chu Liang is talented. After all, she has found a potential talent for the Shu Mountain Sect. But his talent is too high, which made her uncomfortable.

She had always believed herself to be of top-tier talent. Although she wasn’t arrogant because of it, she admittedly held it as a point of pride, thinking she was no less than any other prodigy of her generation.

But after witnessing Chu Liang’s astonishing ability to master the Hundred Swords Technique twice, she suddenly doubted herself. Compared to him, her use of a full day seemed rather ordinary…

For cultivators, confidence can be a big or small issue. If you exaggerate, it could potentially affect their Taoist Heart.

After some thought, Jiang Xiaobai concluded that her Daoist heart could not be shaken.

Perhaps the reason Chu Liang was able to cultivate so freely was because he learned the Hundred Swords Technique at a later age, or maybe he was naturally suited to these kinds of Divine Skills.

So this time, she planned to teach Chu Liang a highly difficult Divine Skill to thoroughly test his mettle.

“Talisman Sword Technique?”

Upon hearing the name, Chu Liang was slightly taken aback.

Of course, it was not because he had never heard of it, but rather because it was too renowned.

Divine skills such as the Hundred Swords Technique are not exclusive to the Shu Mountain Sect; non-mainstream sword cultivators outside may also possess them. However, the Talisman Sword Technique was created by the forefathers of the Shu Mountain Sect; it’s an orthodox unique technique to Shu Mountain.

Within the Shu Mountain Sect, it is a compulsory course for Golden Core Realm disciples, but normally, only disciples in the Five Elements Realm can fully master it.

As for disciples in the first three realms, they would not consider learning it, because it is too early, and they would not be able to learn it.

Does Senior Sister Jiang think so highly of me?

Seeing his slightly surprised expression, Jiang Xiaobai gave a small smile, “What do you think? Do you have the confidence to learn it well?”

“With Senior Sister Jiang teaching, naturally I have confidence.” Chu Liang always remembers to be tactful.

“Although the Talisman Sword Technique is said to be difficult to learn, it’s not like Immortal Law. It doesn’t require comprehending grand rules, nor does it require high Cultivation. So, it should be possible to master it at the Divine Consciousness Realm.” Jiang Xiaobai explained.

Meanwhile, she silently added to herself, theoretically speaking.

Chu Liang could only nod.

Next, Teacher Jiang’s mini-lesson started.

The principle of the Talisman Sword Technique isn’t hard to understand.

It is about drawing talismans with the sword before releasing it with Sword Control Technique, connecting to the spiritual realm in mid-air. Thus, the released flying sword carries the innate power of the talisman. The combination of Sword Qi and the talisman results in an immense offensive force.

Moreover, provided that one’s strength is strong enough, a single sword technique can carry many talismans, transforming into Ten Rune Sword, Hundred Rune Sword. It was said that in the past, a great master of the sword dao in the Shu Mountain once combined the Ten Thousand Swords Technique and the Talisman Sword Technique, casting out one hundred thousand talisman swords in one shot.

The sword suppressed heaven and earth, its power shook the Nine States, possessing the supreme power to obliterate mountains and seas.

Practicing the Talisman Sword Technique to that level was in no way inferior to Immortal Law.

Hearing this, Chu Liang could not help but yearn for it.

However, a question from Jiang Xiaobai brought him back to reality, “Do you know how to make talismans?”

“Um…”

Chu Liang could only shake his head.

Seeing his bewildered expression, Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but feel a pang of glee in her heart.

She herself had only begun studying the Talisman Sword Technique after entering the Golden Core Realm, and she was already familiar with the process of making talismans, so she only needed twelve days to master it — the current fastest record in the Shu Mountain Sect.

As for Chu Liang, with his complete beginner’s situation, twelve days was clearly impossible… it would be hard to even learn how to make talismans in that time.

It seemed she was certain to win this time.

However, once she realized that she was feeling pleased because of this thought, she was suddenly puzzled.

Huh?

Why did she care so much about this?

Surely, as a middle stage Divine Consciousness Realm junior brother, it was only natural for her to defeat him!

With that thought, she reminded herself to calm down.

Chu Liang watched as the gleam in Jiang Xiaobai’s eyes shifted, wondering what she was thinking, then handed her another jar of Bee Juice Tea, “Senior Sister Jiang has worked hard in her explanations, please have a drink. This is a beverage I bought down the mountain, it tastes very good.”

“Hm?” Jiang Xiaobai took the Bee Juice Tea, had a sip, and her eyes brightened instantly, “It really is delicious!”

Seeing her happy expression, Chu Liang remembered what his Master had told him before, feeling that sweet drinks seem to be quite popular with girls.

An idea flashed in his mind.

“Senior Sister Jiang, if you like it, I can often bring it for you to drink in the future, but…” he asked, “could you help me with a small favor?”
