Under the guidance and guidance of Shang Xia, the great Fu master, Fu Tang's strength and foundation had improved as a whole.
However, to the senior management of the academy, it was regrettable that although the number of rank three Fu Masters in the Fu Hall had reached seven now, there was still no one who had achieved the second rank four great Fu Master of Tongyou Academy after Shang Xia.
However, this is not Shang Xia's self-preservation, or some other external factor.
The gap between rank three martial Fu and rank four martial Fu was even more difficult than a martial artist's promotion from rank three martial arts realm to rank four martial evil realm, if he wanted to cross this chasm, he could only find the reason from the Fu master's own Fu path attainments.
Although Shang Xia made all the rank four martial Fu Fu inheritance in the Fu Hall, he publicly displayed it to all the Fu masters in the Fu Hall.
However, these Fu masters could obtain certain revelations by observing these martial Fu, thus improving in a certain aspect of Fu making attainment, but it still took a certain amount of time to accumulate if they wanted to directly copy rank four martial Fu.
However, in Shang Xia's expectations, the time for a second great Fu Master to appear in the Fu Hall would not be too far away, as long as five years or as short as two or three years, Tongyou Academy would inevitably have a second rank four great Fu Master.
Of course, this kind of great Fu master would definitely not be able to compare with a near-all-round rank four Fu master like Shang Xia, at best he could only refine one of the rank four martial Fu inheritances, and strive to increase the Fu success rate to more than 30%.
And this was almost the path for the vast majority of Fu Masters in the Cang Sheng Realm to advance to Grand Fu Master.
Bu Jingshuang and the others who returned from Sanhe Island were also very efficient, and soon completed the handover of the traded materials belonging to Fu Tang to Ren Huan.
As the fourth-order Fu craftsman with the highest skill in making talisman paper in Fu Tang, the talisman paper made by Ren Huan's hand was usually handed over directly to Shang Xia by him, so Ren Huan had already mastered the material distribution of the entire Fu Hall very early.
The reason why Shang Xia hurriedly returned to the Fu Hall was because Bu Jingshuang brought back a fifth-order strange beast skin from Sanhe Island this time.
This fifth-order strange beast skin should also be from the Lingyu Realm, from the great battle three years ago
Unlike the fifth-order talisman paper that can only be made through extremely difficult processes using different ratios of various materials, the strange animal skins suitable for making talisman paper can reduce the difficulty of making talisman paper by about half.
Although Ren Huan was only a rank four Fu craftsman, if he directly used the fifth-order strange beast skin, Shang Xia still hoped that he could try to make rank five talisman paper.
Although the possibility of such a risk failure was extremely high, this was the price that a high-ranking Fu Craftsman would inevitably pay if he wanted to go further.
In addition to this strange animal skin, Bu Jingshuang and the others also brought back three fifth-order talisman papers from Sanhe Island, but the other party demanded that after the Sanhe Tower was opened a year later, Tongyou Academy needed to use a fifth-order talisman to pay for the reward.
This trading method of three papers into one talisman could be regarded as a common rule of the Fu master's lineage.
In most cases, transactions at the Sanhe Pagoda Fair were conducted anonymously, but the fact that Tongyou Academy had a fifth-order great Fu master did not need to be anonymous, and because of Shang Xia's need for the tempering of the fifth-order talisman technique, he was eager to let more people know.
In fact, after every Sanhe Tower trade opened, the trading of high-level martial talismans above the fourth level of Tongyou Academy has always been popular, and it can often be exchanged for a lot of rare and scarce resources for Tongyou Academy.
This is also because the academy has always had extremely strict control over martial arts Fu above the fourth level, that is, in the years after the two realms were unified, the situation in Youzhou was relatively calm, and the situation of resource shortage after the expansion of the state domain was greatly improved, which allowed it
A small number of high-level martial arts talismans are traded every year.
Even so, there is still an endless stream of warriors who go to the shops and pavilions opened by the academy on Sanhe Island every year to seek talismans.
With these three fifth-order talisman papers, plus the five fifth-order talisman papers that Shang Xia had traded and accumulated through various channels in the previous three years, the number of fifth-order talisman papers in Shang Xia's hand reached eight, if Ren Huan's attempt could be successful this time, this number could be increased again, enough for Shang Xia to squander for a while.
Although he was not proficient in the production of fifth-order talisman paper, because this involved Shang Xia's transformation of the fifth-order talisman, because he was extremely concerned about Ren Huan's production of fifth-order talisman paper.
In the end, Ren Huan really couldn't stand it. During the process of making his talisman, someone was always staring intently next to him, so under the astonished gaze of the assistants, he drove Shang Xia out.
Shang Xia also realized that he was too eager and seemed a little unstable in his mentality, so he prepared to start making a batch of fourth-order martial talismans to suppress the shock.
Several rank three Fu masters who were interested in going further hurried over upon hearing the news, and after getting the name and order of the rank four martial talismans he was preparing to make from Shang Xia, they automatically divided into three batches and began to take turns observing his Fu making process.
Shang Xia was already handy in the production of rank four martial talismans, but even though the production cycle of each rank four martial talisman was extremely short, for a rank three Fu master whose cultivation had not yet advanced to the martial arts realm, observing the production process of a martial talisman would still cause great consumption to his mind, and it would take a long time to recover.
Therefore, when the rank three Fu masters of Fu Hall were observing Shang Xia making high-level martial Fu, except for the two Fu masters whose cultivation level had reached rank four, the others were all observing for a while, and then observing after resting for a while.
At the same time, several rank three Fu masters in Fu Hall had already focused on a certain rank four martial talisman, so when observing Shang Xia's Fu making, they would usually focus their energy on a certain rank four Fu that they had studied intensively.
Shang Xia spent nearly two months making talismans in retreat this time, squandering nearly twenty talisman papers that Fu Tang had accumulated in the past year in one go.
I have to say that the family foundation of Tongyou Academy in the past two or three years has accumulated quite well, almost every year can easily accumulate nearly twenty fourth-order talisman papers, which was almost unimaginable before.
I still remember that after Shang Xia became a fourth-order great Fu master, the entire Tongyou Academy and even the entire Youzhou, from Kou Chongxue to every warrior, almost all the family foundation accumulated over decades was collected, and it was only enough to gather thirty fourth-order talisman papers, which was simply shabby.
These twenty fourth-order talisman papers turned into four types of fourth-order Fu in Shang Xia's hands, with a success rate of sixty and a half, mainly because he chose to make fourth-order martial talismans that were more powerful and difficult to make.
Some of these thirteen Fu will be directly handed over to the academy for reserve, and some will be handed over to those seeking talismans from other states.
Of course, according to the conventions, there are naturally some benefits of Shang Xia in this, but this has already been counted as other aspects.
After completing the production of this batch of fourth-order martial talismans, Shang Xia rested for a period of time to restore the lost essence, which also gave him time to calm down and prepare for the production of fifth-order talismans.
Regarding the transformation of the new talisman, Shang Xia had already deduced it countless times in his heart, and now he was about to verify it with his own hands.
The fifth-order talisman paper was now ready for several sheets, even five
Although there were not many level talismans, they also traded a complete fifth-order talisman ink from Yi Jingzi in Yizhou Tianxing Palace three years ago, which was enough to be used at least three times.
Only Shang Xia was still lacking in the use of the talisman pen, whether it was a purple bamboo pen or a white bone talisman pen, the grade of a high-grade sharp weapon was just right to use it to make a fourth-order martial talisman, and it seemed a bit reluctant to use it to make a fifth-order martial talisman.
But if you want to make a talisman pen whose quality is still above these two talisman pens, it will be difficult.
You must know that even if these two talisman pens are obtained from other states, the instrument hall of Tongyou Academy now does not have the ability to make high-grade talisman pens at all, as for Ren Bainian, although he has a good skill in repairing sharp weapons, he still has to make a complete talisman pen to catch the blind.
However, Ren Bainian had made another suggestion to Shang Xia, that is, if he could find a fifth-order beast bone suitable for making pen barrels, then he might be able to try to replace the barrel of the white bone talisman pen, so that although the white bone talisman pen would not complete a qualitative change in grade, it would probably allow Shang Xia to obtain a talisman pen that had always been similar to a "demigod soldier".
Of course, if Shang Xia can find a fifth-order purple jade bamboo, then Ren Bainian can also try to transform the purple bamboo pen.
Shang Xia stayed in the Fu Hall for nearly a month, and held one Fu meeting within the academy and two small Fu meetings inside the Fu Hall, patiently explaining to many Fu masters many problems they encountered in the process of making Fu Hall.
In the blink of an eye, three months passed, and news finally came from Ren Huan, although it was not very good, but it was still made into two fifth-order talisman papers.
For a rank four Fu craftsman like Ren Huan, the key to a rank five talisman paper was not how much it could be made, the key was that it could be made, which was a leap forward in his talisman paper production.
Coupled with these two newly made fifth-order talisman papers, the total number of rank-five talisman papers in Shang Xia's hand had reached ten, and what Shang Xia was preparing to start was his third fifth-order martial talisman production journey.
Because there were only ten chances, Shang Xia had to be careful and carefully prepared in advance, so he spent nearly a month adjusting his state and constantly deducing to find the best time to write.
This can be regarded as Shang Xia's original one-line talisman technique with a strong personal style.
Although he did not sense the kind of inspiration that existed in the dark, after a month of careful preparation, Shang Xia finally found the time to best match his state with the external environment, and immediately began to draw the fifth-order "Linyuan Feng Xu Fu".
Shang Xia, or the entire Tongyou Academy, currently has only two complete fifth-order martial talisman inheritances.
Compared with the fifth-order "Stand-in Fu", the production of "Linyuan Fengxu Fu" is much simpler.
Because of the preparations made in advance, Shang Xia successfully made a "Linyuan Feng Xu Fu" in just two opportunities.
This martial talisman was returned to others at the request of others by Tongyou Academy.
However, according to the rule of "three papers into one talisman", this time Shang Xia earned an extra fifth-order talisman paper for Fu Tang.
After cultivating for a period of time and readjusting his state to the peak, Shang Xia began to make "stand-in talismans".
Shang Xia personally was still more urgent about the production of the "Stand-in Talisman", especially when Shang Xia had not refined the complete Heaven and Earth Gang and could not condense the Yuan Gang incarnation, the "Stand-in Talisman" was almost equivalent to giving him an extra life.
