A few days after returning to the Shang Mansion from the trade fair, Shang Xia had been polishing his true qi in the small courtyard where he lived.
Although his current cultivation has reached the perfection of the Three Talents Realm, it seems that he has no way to advance before being promoted to the Fourth Heaven.
But Shang Xia was able to make his own original foundation stronger in this way, and he was able to increase his own foundation bit by bit, and at the same time, he was also adjusting his state in order to draw the third-order martial talisman again.
Although Shang Xia was in a state of semi-retreat, Yan Qi would report to him the news collected inside and outside the city every day.
Strangely enough, since the news of the reopening of the realm passage of Tongyou Academy at the trade fair that day, it did not cause any expected waves inside and outside Tongyou City.
However, Shang Xia quickly figured out the reason.
First, because returning to the two realms of war itself is a kind of chance, and those who get the news will only inform their best friends, and will not publicize such news at will.
Secondly, returning to the two realms of war also requires a threshold, a warrior who is qualified to fight side by side with Tongyou Academy and the four major families, even if his own cultivation is not in the martial arts artistic conception, then at least he is his own second-order martial artist.
The latter one alone can exclude more than 80% of the warriors from this battle.
I just don't know when the academy will reopen the realm passage.
Shang Xia was nominally just a student of Tongyou Academy.
Even though his current cultivation has already surpassed most of the teachers in the academy, and it can even be said that he does not think of a second person under the four heavens, his status in the academy is actually not as good as that of academy instructors such as Sun Haiwei and Tian Mengzi, and even on the surface, a student is heavier than Shang Xia's.
Of course, no one would really look at it this way.
But similar to the reopening of the realm passage and the counterattack between the two realms of the theater, Shang Xia was naturally not qualified to know about matters involving the secrets of the academy.
For this reason, Shang Xia also specially asked his fifth uncle Shang Ke for advice, but even Shang Ke himself didn't seem to know much.
Despite this, Shang Xia was still able to sense through some changes in Tongyou City that the entire Tongyou Academy was preparing for battle.
For this reason, Shang Xia must also make some preparations for himself as much as possible before the realm passage reopens.
Shortly after that day's trade fair, Shang Quan returned from Changfeng City and began to collect third-order talisman paper with all his might.
It's a pity that the largest talisman paper in Tongyou City is convenient for making Fu Zhou Academy, and now Tong You Academy is preparing for the battle between the two realms of war, and its own talisman paper is not enough, how can it be leaked again, let alone the more rare third-order talisman paper?
Even with the power of the Shang family in Tongyou City and even Youzhou, after a few days, Shang Quan only sent seven third-order talisman papers, and the number was not even as many as he got at the trade fair that day.
However, the talisman paper collected by Shang Quan was sent in the name of the family, and Shang Xia continued to return a little to the family after the production was successful.
This was because Shang Xia was currently a rank three Fu master for a short time, and the family was more concerned about his cultivation than the premise of his success rate in making Fu.
However, during this period, people from the Hundred Arts Pavilion of Tongyou Academy came and invited Shang Xia to go and make talismans.
Obviously, he already knew that Shang Xia had become a rank three Fu master.
It's just that although Shang Xia is a student of the academy, his ability to make talismans was not cultivated by the academy, but he practiced it by himself.
Therefore, longitudinal
So that Bai Yi Ge could not control him, he could only invite him, and as a rank three Fu master, he had to be extremely polite.
On this day, Shang Quan came again, Shang Xia handed him a porcelain bottle, and said, "Uncle Quan, look at the talisman ink in this bottle, is it helpful for you to make ink?"
"Third-order talisman ink is a foot red?"
Shang Quan saw the root of this bottle of talisman ink at a glance and was surprised: "Where did it come from?"
Shang Xia told him about the trade fair.
Shang Quan thought for a while and said, "I'll take a little, but I can only push back a rough idea, after all, although something like talisman ink is far inferior to advanced medicine, but if you want to launch the secret recipe for its preparation with just a little finished product, I don't know how many experiments will be carried out and how many materials will be wasted."
After obtaining Shang Xia's consent, Shang Quan used a slender glass tube to remove a small half pipe from the porcelain bottle.
Shang Xia looked at the amount taken by Shang Quan, which was roughly equivalent to one-fifth of the porcelain bottle.
In other words, the remaining "One Zhang Hong" could only be used to make four third-order martial talismans.
As soon as Shang Quan left, Yan Qibian asked someone to come in with a strange expression.
"Second uncle, why are you here?"
Shang Xia's face flashed with surprise, and then he smiled and welcomed him into the living room to serve tea.
Speaking of which, the relationship between Shang Xia and this cousin was once very awkward.
However, his cousin was much more sophisticated than Shang Yang's ninth uncle, and it didn't take long for them to resolve their grudges with each other in other ways, and there were many overtures afterwards.
Even if Shang Xia was not in the Shang Mansion for a long time, he could still understand what happened through Shang Xi and Yan Qi.
Especially after he experienced Shang Pei's affairs, he faintly realized that the return of these Shang clan members who were exiled outside the family was not like the fifth uncle Shang Ke was facilitating, but should be the will of his grandfather, and the resistance in his heart was much less.
Moreover, with the improvement of Shang Xia's cultivation and the growth of his knowledge and experience during this period of time, he was already faintly aware of the major changes that might occur in the next few years.
At that time, if there is a dispute, I am afraid that it will be difficult for any side of this Cangyu Realm to stand alone.
At this time, only by trying to increase your strength from all aspects can you gain the upper hand in the world of great conflict.
The uncle and nephew sat down, and Shang Jian spoke first: "I heard that Xiao Liu has been collecting third-order talisman paper recently, the second uncle has been wandering outside all these years, but he has some connections, so he searched for it, but he only got these three talisman papers, Xiao Liu don't think the second uncle's gift is shabby."
Saying that, Shang Jian pushed a wooden box off the table, and there were three blank third-order talisman papers inside.
Shang Xia did not refuse, and said with a smile: "Thank you, second uncle, my nephew is disrespectful."
Shang Xia had heard Shang Quan mention that after the news of his becoming a third-order talisman paper was sent back to the family, Shang Jian had personally confirmed it with him.
Even if some relatives and friends found these three third-order talisman papers without the help of the family's power, it can be seen that it took a lot of effort.
Shang Jian saw that Shang Xia simply accepted the gift, and his face was also happy.
After chatting for a while, Shang Jian made his intentions clear: "Xiao Liu is now entering the realm every day, but your two cousins and cousins are still trapped in the Wuji Realm.
Shang Xia knew when he heard the strings and songs
Yayi said with a smile: "My nephew had some fate when he was in the Wuji Realm, and later recorded six or seven sets of bipolar swordsmanship that could directly connect to supernatural powers, and now they are placed in the family's scripture pavilion. If the two cousins and cousins have time, they can refer to one or two."
Shang Jian was overjoyed when he heard this, and said very solemnly: "In this way, the second uncle will thank Xiao Liu for your two useless cousins and cousins."
Shang Jian had seen the swordsmanship performed by Shang Xia in the Wuji Realm, the kind of swordsmanship that perfectly combined the two styles of majestic and heavy and weird and changeable, once it was performed, even ordinary third-order warriors could not match its edge, and it was very good.
If he could get the essence of Shang Xia's first and second road swordsmanship, then Shang Jian was confident that under his protection, his children would step into the third-order martial arts path, which would basically be opened.
After sending Shang Jian away, Yan Qi came to Shang Xia's side with a gloomy face, as if there was something unspeakable.
Seeing this, Shang Xia smiled and said: "Uncle Qi, is there anything you and my uncle and nephew can't say?"
Yan Qi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said: "Master, do you know that there is now a heaven and earth spirit in the mansion that has been rewarded by the academy? During this time, the second master often ran to the head of the family."
Shang Xia smiled and said: "My opportunity to advance to the fourth heaven has not yet arrived, and I may not be able to see the spiritual demon that goes public in the future!"
Eight were obtained from the trade fair, seven were collected by the family, and then Shang Jian sent three more, at this time the total number of third-order talisman papers in Shang Xia's hand reached a total of eighteen, which was enough for him to concentrate on the drawing of third-order talismans for the next period of time.
Unfortunately, except for the small bottle of third-order talisman ink "Yizhang Hong", Shang Quan did not collect third-order talisman ink for Shang Xia, and could only continue to use the second-order talisman ink made by Shang Quan himself, which was a bit of a fly in the ointment.
But as far as Shang Xia knew, even in the academy's Hundred Arts Pavilion, the third-order talisman ink was still not enough.
After everything was ready, Shang Xia still did not rush to draw the third-order talisman, but first made more than ten second-order martial talismans to familiarize himself with the newly acquired Feihong pen.
Although this talisman pen is the same as the stabbing pen in terms of grade, in fact, both in terms of the materials used to make the talisman pen and the technique of the pen maker, the Feihong pen is obviously more sophisticated.
After becoming familiar with the Feihong pen, Shang Xia felt that he was in good condition, so he officially started the production of the third-order martial talisman.
The first third-order martial talisman was still made from the familiar "Thunderbolt Golden Spear Talisman", but Shang Xia did not use the third-order talisman ink from the beginning.
Because there have been two successful production precedents before, and later there have been many summaries and speculations, this time as soon as he got started, Shang Xia felt quite familiar.
Although he didn't have that kind of clever feeling this time, with his experience and focus, it only took three days before and after, Shang Xia successfully soaked a strand of martial arts will that had been divided into the martial talisman, and completed the production of the first third-order martial talisman.
The first production was successful, this was undoubtedly a good start for Shang Xia, who had just become a rank three Fu master.
After a short rest, Shang Xia didn't even wait for the worn-out martial arts will to regain its perfection, so he started the production of the second "Thunderbolt Golden Gun Talisman".
Taking advantage of the enthusiasm at the beginning, Shang Xia drew five "Thunderbolt Golden Spear Talismans" in less than fifteen days, and three of them succeeded at once.
Compared to when he first made talismans, seven sheets of talisman paper only became two in the end, and his talisman making skills could be said to have made great progress.
At least on the "Thunderbolt Golden Spear Talisman", Shang Xia was already qualified.
