However, this would require some time for ample experimentation.
Su Yu’s proficiency in the second-level talismans has reached the level of perfection, allowing him to draw them with ease and virtually no mistakes.
In a day’s time, he was able to produce over twenty second-level talismans.
Only near the end did he attempt to enhance the power of the Flame Thunder Sword talisman.
Just like that.
In a blink of an eye, another year had passed.
All of the materials for second-level talismans stored in Su Yu’s ring were drained. He managed to create superior-grade second-level Flame Thunder Sword talismans and produced over three hundred of them.
In terms of power, they were the best amongst their peers.
Neither Yu Ke’er’s nor Su Zhi’s breakthrough to the Core Formation Realm was publicized. Su Zhi hid her cultivation level with a special Magic Artifact as she moved within the Yunjian Sect. Apart from a precious few, no one else knew about it.
Just as Su Yu ran out of material for talismans, Tie Mengzhu came to inform him that Taoist Xiuyu and Taoist Shuhai had come to visit.
Foreign Affairs Hall, one of the peak locations of the Yunjian Sect.
A figure in a cyan robe, appearing as though a celestial being had stepped down to earth, arrived at the entrance of the Foreign Affairs Hall. Seeing Su Yu, the two Yunjian Sect Inner Sect Disciples guarding the hall’s entrance bowed respectfully, “Greetings, Eld…er Su.”
“Hmm.”
Su Yu replied with a nod and a smile, entering the hall.
Inside, Su Zhi was catering to Taoist Xiuyu and Taoist Shuhai.
Upon seeing Su Yu’s arrival, both Taoists alone stood up and greeted with a smile, “Greetings, Elder Su.”
Seeing this, Su Yu waved his hand, “Your etiquette is wrong. If you are addressing me as Elder, you should show more respect and bow. Considering your behavior, this is rather disrespectful.”
Taoist Xiuyu offered a shocked chuckle, exchanging glances with Taoist Shuhai, “I did say that there’s no point in being ceremonious with him, it just escalates.”
Taoist Shuhai laughed out loud, “Regretful. If I had known him during his Qi Refinement stage, I would have had him, thinking highly of me, call me Elder everyday, bow everyday without a single mistake.”
Taoist Xiuyu nodded earnestly, “Good idea.”
“Sit down already, skip the tea.” Su Yu told Su Zhi to sit down and not to fuss about.
Both of these fellows had already reached the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm but they held back from breaking through to the Core Formation Realm. They must have been planning something.
Perhaps, both of them even entertained the notion of challenging the path to the Golden Core.
As the three were well acquainted over the years, they ditched any formalities and sat down together.
Looking at the two of them, Su Yu asked, “Not making a trip without a reason for the triple gems, what made you gentlemen seek me out?”
Taoist Xiuyu remained silent.
Taoist Shuhai, with a serious look, turned towards Su Yu, “This time I came to the Yunjian Sect, mainly to request that you draw talismans for our Grand Moon Palace. We are in need of both second and third level talismans.”
“The materials can be supplied by our Grand Moon Palace. Three sets of third level Inferior-materials are needed to produce one set. Remuneration can be settled with thirty medium-grade Spirit Stones per product.”
“For the second level talismans, one product can be made from two sets of materials. Reimbursement for an inferior-grade second level talisman is one medium-grade Spirit Stone, two medium-grade Spirit stones for a middle-grade, and four for a superior-grade.”
“Regardless of the number of talismans you can draw, our Grand Moon Palace will take them all.”
Hearing this, Su Yu was startled in surprise. Has the Grand Moon Palace reached the point where they require outside support? Among all the establishments under the jurisdiction of the Grand Moon Prefecture, undoubtedly, the Grand Moon Palace had the most profound foundation.
During the massive beast tide in the Grand Moon black market, a large portion of resources had fallen into the hands of the Grand Moon Palace.
In terms of materials, the Grand Moon Palace was not lacking.
What they lacked were people.
After pondering for a while, Su Yu agreed, “Not a problem, what types of talismans does the Grand Moon Palace require?”
“We mainly need Illusory Moon Talismans designed by you.” Taoist Shuhai replied.
Su Yu slightly furrowed his brows, “Drawing the Illusory Moon Talisman is not easy. Drawing a second-level one isn’t too bad, achieving a one in five success rate. However, for a third grade inferior talisman, achieving one in three is difficult.”
After further negotiation with Taoist Shuhai, they finalized the rate at one product per four sets of materials.
Upon conclusion, Taoist Shuhai left Su Yu with three hundred sets of third-level inferior-grade talisman materials and one thousand sets of second-level talisman materials of various grades. The two agreed that Shuhai would come to trade and collect the talismans once a year.
In the end, Taoist Shuhai left, satisfied only after he had drawn from Su Yu five inferior third-level, ten superior second-level, and ten middle-grade second level ‘Illusory Moon Talismans.’
The payment would be settled at the proper time.
Watching Taoist Xiuyu and Taoist Shuhai leave, Su Yu calculated in hismind. When it came to second-level talismans, errors in his drawings were extremely rare and he could keep up to forty percent of those. His success rate for third-level inferior talismans was about sixty percent at the moment.
Thus, with the third-level inferior-grade talisman materials, he would have a bit more than thirty percent left.
Adding in the reparation from the Grand Moon Palace, it was passable and didn’t result in a loss.
The main problem was that the supply of third-level talisman materials was scarce and hard to gather.
Having such an extensive customer such as the Grand Moon Palace knocking on his door, Su Yu wouldn’t dare pass up the opportunity.
He also hoped that the Grand Moon Palace could withstand the aggressions of the Taixu Immortal Alliance. With a tougher entity handling the first wave, they could safely and comfortably follow behind.
Upon noticing Su Zhi’s hesitant expression, Su Yu smiled, “If the Yunjian Sect wants talismans as well, assemble the materials yourself. The conditions would be the same as the ones for the Grand Moon Palace, but, I could offer you a discount.”
An immediate smile spread across Su Zhi’s face. She, however, quickly dispeled it and looked at Su Yu worriedly, “Would that not interfere with your cultivation?”
