Chapter 36 - Chapter 36: The Return of the Spirit Fish

Ten days later, in the talisman making room

Zhao Sheng was concentrating, holding the talisman pen and writing on the talisman paper, gradually outlining the pattern of the invisibility talisman.

When the last stroke was completed, the surface of the talisman paper suddenly became brighter with spiritual light, and strands of spiritual light wandered among the spiritual patterns.

Soon the spiritual light disappeared, and only a gray first-level talisman remained on the table.

Zhao Sheng couldn't help but smile when he saw this, and sighed: "It's finally done."

In ten days, he wasted nearly two hundred pieces of talisman paper before he could barely draw the invisibility talisman.

This was only possible with the help of bullet time.

Zhao Sheng felt that the invisibility talisman was difficult, but he didn't know that if outsiders knew that he succeeded in just ten days, everyone would be shocked.

There are countless types of first-level talismans in the world of immortal cultivation, but the invisibility talisman is recognized by immortal cultivators as one of the nineteen most difficult first-level talismans to draw.

However, he soon understood this.

Two quarters of an hour later, in the Good Deeds Hall, Zhao Keqin, who was in charge of the exchange, looked at Zhao Sheng across from him with disbelief and exclaimed, "What did you say? Did you really draw the invisibility talisman?"

"Uncle Qin, this is fake. You'll know it once you see it."

Zhao Sheng said as he took out an invisibility talisman from his storage bag and slapped it on the table.

Zhao Keqin grabbed the talisman and put it in front of his eyes, looking at it carefully.

The lines, symbols, and spiritual light all match the requirements, it is undoubtedly an invisibility talisman.

After reading it, Zhao Keqin was extremely excited and said, "Oh my God, our Zhao family has produced another genius in the art of talismans. This is truly the manifestation of our ancestors' spirits!"

Zhao Sheng was stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself: "That's right! The ancestor is really standing in front of you alive."

As for the other talisman genius he mentioned, Zhao Sheng knew that he was referring to Zhao Chongwei.

Zhao Chongwei has an extremely high talent in the art of talismans. With only the second level of Qi Refining, she can draw more than a dozen first-level talismans, and the success rate of each talisman is over 50%.

Among the 31 cultivators in the Zhao family, there are no more than five who can earn enough resources for cultivation through their own skills without relying on the family. Zhao Chongwei is one of them.

The Zhao family attaches great importance to Zhao Chongwei and regards her as a foundation-building seed. Even if the family is in financial difficulty, they will squeeze out resources to provide her with training.

Zhao Sheng didn't care whether he was a genius in talismans or not. What he cared about was how many spirit stones the invisibility talisman was worth.

So he immediately asked: "Uncle Qin, how many spirit stones can this invisibility talisman be exchanged for?"

Zhao Keqin held up two fingers and said with a happy expression, "At least two spirit stones."

hiss!

Wow! The price is nearly ten times higher than the Spring Breeze Rain Talisman, but the cost of the two is almost the same.

Zhao Sheng's eyes lit up when he heard this. He just wanted to go back quickly and draw a hundred or eighty pictures in one breath. That would make him a fortune!

Coincidentally, Zhao Keqin thought so too.

The family was going through a difficult time, and there were limited ways to earn spirit stones. Now that there was suddenly an additional source of income, how could he let it go?

So, Zhao Keqin repeatedly urged Zhao Sheng to go back and draw more invisibility talismans, and promised him that he would not suffer a loss in terms of price.

Just when Zhao Sheng was about to leave, a panicked figure suddenly broke into the Shangong Hall.

The man looked unusual and shouted as he entered: "Second brother, something happened!"

Zhao Keqin is the second in the Ke generation, so his peers call him the second brother.

Zhao Keqin stepped forward to support the man and asked anxiously, "Ke Zhang, tell me quickly, what happened?"

Zhao Kezhan is from the second branch of the family. He was born with a weak foundation in the five elements and was only able to cultivate to the second level of Qi Refining when he was over fifty years old.

In order to make the best use of his resources, the Zhao family put him in charge of some miscellaneous tasks, such as sending and receiving talismans, running errands part-time, gathering information, etc.

Zhao Kezhang panicked and said, "I don't know what went wrong. The Jade Pill Pavilion, Bailianfang, the Huangfeng Lan family, and the Lishan Wei family all returned the spirit fish and said they won't buy from us anymore."

Hearing this, not only did Zhao Keqin's face change suddenly, but even Zhao Sheng felt secretly nervous.

What a ruthless move!

You should know that the biggest source of wealth for the Zhao family is the various spiritual fish and shrimps produced in Longli Lake.

The red carp and the green carp are particularly famous. The meat of these two spiritual fish is delicious and rich in spiritual energy. They can not only nourish the physical body of the cultivator, but also expel the "fire" in the cultivator's body.

In the world of cultivating immortals, weapon refiners and alchemists have been exposed to various spiritual fires for many years due to the characteristics of their profession.

Over time, the physical body will inevitably be corroded by the "fire energy" emitted by the spiritual fire.

At this time, the spiritual fish rich in water-based spiritual energy becomes a good medicine to dissolve the fire.

Therefore, the spirit fish meat produced by the Zhao family is very popular. Over the past three hundred years, it has become famous in the area within a thousand miles and has attracted a group of stable big customers.

However, today, all the major customers unexpectedly refused to accept the spirit fish.

For the precarious Zhao family, this was a disaster.

There must be a mastermind behind this!

No, it may also be due to tacit understanding.

Some forces want to "force the Zhao family to death" bit by bit, such as the "good relatives" Lishan Wei family, the "good neighbors" Huangfeng Lan family, and so on.

There is no doubt that the Zhao family has encountered another crisis.

If it is not handled properly, it may trigger a series of domino-like disasters.

Zhao Keqin quickly calmed down and immediately asked, "Ke Zhang, have you informed the others?"

"It wasn't too late. After the accident, the first person I thought of was my second brother." Zhao Kezhan shook his head.

Zhao Keqin was also from the Second Branch, and after Zhao Jingang went into seclusion, he became the head of the Second Branch. So Zhao Kezhang was the first one to approach him.

"Immediately notify all the Jin and Ke generations who are at home to come to Tongxin Hall to discuss the matter in one hour."

After giving Zhao Kezhang his instructions, Zhao Keqin turned to Zhao Sheng and said, "Chonghe, come too."

Zhao Sheng nodded. Even as the nominal head of the Zhao family, he had the right to participate in family affairs.

An hour later, at the Lakeside Hall on Yanyue Island.

In the back hall meeting room, sitting in front of an oversized black round table with an area of ​​more than 20 square meters were Zhao Sheng and nine members of the Zhao family who were from the Jinke generation and two generations ago.

This round table was specially made by Zhao Sheng in his previous life, symbolizing equality and unity.

Before coming, everyone already knew that the spirit fish had been returned.

Therefore, the atmosphere in Tongxin Hall was extremely depressing.

No one is stupid. This incident happened in a very strange way. It is obvious that someone is manipulating it in secret.

However, the move by the mastermind behind the scenes was truly powerful and really hit the Zhao family's weak spot.

Seeing that no one spoke, Zhao Jinge, the oldest among them, asked: "Tell us! How should this be resolved?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Jinpeng suddenly said with anger: "Someone must be behind this. I think it's that old immortal from the Wei family who's behind it."

As soon as he finished speaking, a member of the second branch of the family, from the Ke generation, retorted, "Sixth Uncle, don't speak without evidence. The Wei family and our Zhao family have been married for nearly two hundred years, and our two families have always been closely connected. How dare you doubt the Wei ancestor? What are your intentions?"

"Hehe, we are of the same blood? Only your second branch believes his nonsense." Zhao Jinpeng said sarcastically.
