The owner's surname was He. He was a well-known, shrewd and petty old man.

"This Boss He was known as the number one talisman appraiser in the Xishang Kingdom back then. Because he offended some influential people, he had no choice but to stay in this small shop and do some small business." The middle-aged man boasted loudly to Chu Fei, but immediately after, he said in a low voice, "However, he was the one who instigated himself to boast when he was drunk, and no one believed him. "But don't worry, Boss He has a way to appraise talismans."

Boss He snorted, ignoring the middle aged man, he directly took the talisman from Chu Fei and started scrutinizing it.

"Three hundred gold each." Boss He said without raising his head.

Damn, it's so low. Chu Fei was shocked. When he came to the black market, he was already prepared to push down the price. He had already wasted more than a thousand gold coins making these three talismans for three hundred talismans. He hadn't even managed to earn the cost.

"Boss, it shouldn't be that low, right? If it's like this, I won't even be able to earn back the cost!" Chu Fei felt a wave of pain in his heart. Not only did the Stamp not earn any money, it had even lost a lot of money.

"You made it yourself?" Boss He looked at the runes and then looked at Chu Fei, his face filled with disbelief. He had thought that this spell had come from an incorrect place, but unexpectedly, it had been drawn by a junior so young. Boss He couldn't help but become serious. This time, he used his inner force and sent his inner qi into the talisman, examining the talisman in his hand in a more comprehensive manner.

Flaming Stamp, yes. A body transformation fourth level spiritual energy, that's right, additional skill: Flame, that's also right. Wait, this rune seems a little strange. Boss He was acutely aware that the seismic pattern that he had seen in this rune was slightly different from the normal fire Stamp, as if there were some improvements in it.

"Kid, what's your name?" Boss He suddenly said again. According to the rules of the black market, there were very few people who would ask about the seller's personal information. After all, some things came from an unorthodox origin. In order to avoid suspicion, the rules of not asking the seller for personal information slowly became common sense. However, since this spell was drawn by the seller himself, there was no need to worry about it arousing any controversy.

"Chu Fei."

"Chu Fei, Chu Fei..." Boss He kept searching his mind, he did not remember a family surnamed Chu who was an expert in talisman crafting, "Chu Fei, I am very interested in these three talismans, I will offer you five hundred gold each. I can guarantee that in the entire street, you won't be able to find anyone with a higher price than me. What do you think? "

"Fine, 500 then." Chu Fei clenched his teeth, took the fifteen hundred gold and walked out of the shop with big strides.

"This is for your hard work." Boss He took out fifty gold coins from the counter and casually tossed it to the sharp-tongued middle-aged man.

"What the hell! Boss He, you actually took the initiative to raise the price. What a surprise! Could it be that the sun will rise from the west tomorrow?" The middle-aged man laughed as he counted the gold coins.

"What do you know? This Stamp is extraordinary." "Even though it's just a small Stamp, to be able to improve a rune that has been circulating for thousands of years without any modifications is not inferior to creating your own Tao technique."

"Boss, I want to inject a spell into my weapon." Just as Chu Fei walked out of the store, a tall and sturdy man walked in.

"May I know what kind of spell this customer would like?" Boss He quickly went up to greet him. He didn't expect that today's business would be quite good and that two customers would come at once.

"The weapon I use is a meteor hammer. I want to buy a rune to increase my attack power. "Just recommend some cheaper ones to me." The sturdy man's name was Fang Tong. He originally had a low birth, but when he went up the mountain to chop firewood, he happened to stumble upon a wondrous flower or herb. After consuming it, his strength increased explosively, more than ten times stronger than his peers. As a result of this, he had gained the favor of an itinerant person, and had been recruited into the sect. However, this strong man's innate talent was limited, plus his family background was average, he didn't have any extra money to support his training.

His cultivation was still stuck at the first level of Pulse Condensation. Fortunately, he had relied on his immense strength to behead demons and exterminate devils, which resulted in him saving a small amount of money. He could use it to buy a weapon that would please everyone and use it to participate in the martial arts competition held by the sect. Coincidentally, his luck was quite good this time and he found a high-grade spirit artifact, the Meteor Hammer.

If one were to talk about cultivators, one would usually prefer to use weapons such as swords and sabers, which were convenient for carrying and were also handsome and cool. Therefore, although the meteor hammer he bought was a high-grade spirit weapon, its price was about the same as a mid-grade spirit weapon. Even so, the price of ten thousand gold coins had already been sold to him. There wasn't much left to buy a decent charm.

But Fang Tong still decided to try his luck. Even if he channeled a cheap talisman into his body, it could only increase the attacking power by 10%.

"A cheaper incantation," Boss He thought for a while. His eyes turned and his face was immediately filled with smiles as he said in a pleasant voice, "You came at the right time, and I have a few cheap Flame Stamp that are selling right now. I'll sell them to you for a thousand gold each. Not only could this rune increase the attack power of a weapon, it also carried a fire type offensive ability – the Emblem of Fire. Do you want to take a look? " With that, Boss He took out the runes that Chu Fei had just sold to him and passed it to him. Boss He was a smart person. He didn't say how much the charm paper could increase his attack power, but rather focused on the additional skills. Sure enough, when Fang Tong heard that the sigil actually had an attack skill, his eyes immediately lit up, as if he had picked up a treasure. He did not expect that he would be able to buy such a good rune with such a small amount of money on him. Not only was this rune cheap, it actually had a skill attached to it. If he had been caught off guard in the middle of the match and suddenly used a skill, then his chances of winning would have greatly increased. Moreover, the price of 1000 gold coins was way too cheap, it really made people worry whether this was a fake or not.

"Boss, why is your sigil so cheap? Is there something fishy going on?" Fang Tong cautiously asked. Although the sigil was cheap, but if he really bought a fake, it would definitely not be a small loss.

"Don't worry, the spell itself is definitely not a problem," Boss He confidently confirmed, but then changed the subject, "However, this spell was drawn by a talisman apprentice. Although it comes with an attack skill, no one knows how much attack power the weapon will have, it depends on your luck. If we are lucky, we might be able to increase our chances by thirty to forty percent. "

So it was a test subject drawn by a talisman apprentice, Fang Tong was a little disappointed. But the current Fang Tong was not young, if he did not take advantage of the fact that he had gotten a good rank in the competition and obtained the rewards to increase his cultivation, it would be difficult for his cultivation to improve in the future.

Success or failure depended on it. This martial arts competition would determine their future. Fang Tong thought for a while and made up his mind. Compared to the rewards from winning the competition, this little bit of money was nothing.

"Boss, give me one of this Stamp." Fang Tong took out a thousand gold notes from his chest pocket and heavily smashed it on the counter.

The city of Anhe, which lay beneath the dark yellow mountains, was filled with majestic buildings. Especially the western part of the imperial city and the western part of the General's Estate, which was sitting on the east side, they appeared to be the most imposing and imposing. The tall Western Shang Royal City and the Residence of General looked at each other from afar. He took in the entirety of the city. Due to the ancient teachings of the Royal Clan, the General's Estate was much shorter than the Royal Palace. However, there were numerous pavilions and pavilions within the mansion, and there were even signs of them surpassing the Imperial Palace.

At this moment, in the training room of the General's Estate, a white-robed old man was currently holding a cultivation manual and reading it carefully. That calm face and tall and slender body complemented each other, giving off a somewhat sage-like appearance. The person who stood gracefully next to him was the An Zhiyue that Chu Fei had met today.

"There's actually such a young person, yet he wants you to feel inferior?" The white-clothed old man stroked his beard as he asked doubtfully.

"Even with his understanding of runes, he didn't seem to be randomly making things up." The old man by An Zhiyue's side was her master in learning runes, and at the same time, was An He City's top master, Mr. Yun Mie.

Regarding everything that Chu Fei said to An Zhiyue today, An Zhiyue remembered it very clearly, and did not miss a single detail. Facing Yun Mie, An Zhiyue described everything she had heard in detail.

Yun Mie listened to An Zhiyue's description quietly as her expression slowly turned serious. She originally thought that this youth was only proficient in a few talismans, and coincidentally had caught An Zhiyue in surprise. However, the amount of knowledge this youth had while conversing with An Zhiyue was far from being at her age. In the entire Xishang Kingdom, there was probably no one who could cultivate such a knowledgeable disciple. It was very likely that this young man came from an aristocratic family with more advanced runic arts. But why would a disciple of a noble family fall to the Transaction line to sell a Spirit Gathering Talisman that was only worth a few hundred gold.

However, what shocked Yun Mie the most was the scene of Chu Fei drawing the seismic pattern. Amongst the more than three thousand eight hundred seismic pattern, An Zhiyue casually pointed out one.

"How can a complete set of seismic pattern be drawn so smoothly without the slightest pause?" Yun Mie asked doubtfully, he even suspected that he had heard wrongly.

"Yes, Master. He smoothly drew a complete set of seismic pattern in front of me. His level of proficiency is as if he had drawn it thousands of times, without the slightest hesitation." An Zhiyue nodded as she replied. Chu Fei was extremely envious of the calmness with which Chu Fei drew the seismic pattern.

"Only those who have experienced countless hardships will be able to recognize it!" Yun Mie shook his head and sighed: "This youth is young, to be able to draw talismans with just a cultivation at the Third Stage of Body Transformation, and to be so proficient in it, his future is truly limitless. It's a pity you didn't keep him. "

As a Charm Magician, Yun Mie was naturally very interested in such a miraculous youth. What made him even more curious was how to raise him. It was so that a young man could control runes so freely.

Yun Mie thought left and right, but didn't think that anyone would be able to cultivate such an outstanding disciple. Just based on his understanding of runes, no one would dare to claim that Yun Mie was second in Xishang Kingdom. And in the neighbouring countries, although there were a few Charm Magician s who were on par with him, from what he knew, these people shouldn't have been able to cultivate such an outstanding disciple.

"If my guess is not wrong, this young man should be from the Celestial domain, and coming to the Xishang Kingdom should just be to train." Yun Mie guessed, although he was not completely sure, but he could not think of a more reasonable explanation.
