Chapter 7: Golden Needle Talisman

After approximately five more minutes, just as Ye Chenfeng's soul power was about to be exhausted, suddenly, streams of golden light began to reflect on the surface of the yellow jade talisman, and the golden needle talisman was finally formed

I would like to sell a talisman, but I am not sure if your Baiyun shop accepts it

Ye Chenfeng glanced at the tall and alluring young woman and spoke directly.

As the soul power cannot be increased in a short period, in order to successfully refine the talisman, he must minimize errors and conserve unnecessary soul power consumption to have a chance of success

In a moment of desperation, Ye Chenfeng bit his tongue hard, striving to regain his clarity and exerting every effort to stabilize the chaotic array with his soul power.

Failed

Although Ye Chenfeng summarized the lessons from his failures, at the final moment, he still experienced a slight deviation due to insufficient soul power, which led to an error in the fusion array pattern, resulting in a complete failure

With this Golden Needle Talisman, all his efforts have been rewarded, and through the intense refinement of the Golden Needle Talisman, Ye Chenfeng's control over his soul has become stronger, and his soul power has become more refined

"The cost of refining array symbols is truly exorbitant, and ordinary people simply cannot afford it," Ye Chenfeng shook his head and murmured with a pained expression.

Although the golden needle array pattern is small, it is infused with the blood of fierce beasts, and the power it contains is astonishing. Ye Chenfeng has no doubt that if the golden needle array pattern is successfully refined, it would be sufficient to annihilate an ordinary illusion beast master.

"Well, young master, please follow me to the back hall. I will go and invite the array symbol appraiser from our Baiyun shop. As for whether he will charge a fee, I cannot make that decision." The young woman hesitated for a moment but still led him to the back hall of the Baiyun shop.

However, after eight failures, Ye Chenfeng's technique in refining array patterns has become much more proficient, and his speed has also increased significantly

After the formation stabilized, Ye Chenfeng, with beads of sweat emerging on his forehead, let out a long sigh and murmured to himself, still feeling a lingering fear

Call ... ...

The array symbol inheritance that Ye Chenfeng received far exceeds that of the Zijin Kingdom. He believes that the array symbols he refines, in terms of both value and quality, are incomparable to those available in the market

Looking at the yellow talisman paper reduced to ashes, Ye Chenfeng let out a helpless sigh; 3,000 taels of silver had just gone down the drain. Normally, he wouldn't spend that much money in an entire year.

Ye Chenfeng was summarizing his experiences while refining the Golden Needle Talismans, but his luck was truly poor, as he failed consecutively eight times, nearly exhausting the materials for crafting the Golden Needle Talismans

Ye Chenfeng closed his eyes to recover the consumed soul power, releasing the soul power into the beast's blood. Following the method of condensing the golden needle talisman, he gradually infused the beast's blood into the array patterns.

After experiencing a failure, Ye Chenfeng immediately summarized the lessons learned from the failure, seeking to identify the shortcomings and issues in his process of refining the array symbols

Failed again

Failed again

However, due to his lack of fame and being a beginner, he set the price of the golden needle talisman very low, only seeking to gain recognition and recoup his costs

The Golden Needle Talisman can be described as the most basic offensive array talisman, consisting of two offensive array patterns

After approximately more than an hour, Ye Chenfeng's soul power was restored to its original state, and his condition was adjusted to its best. When the time was ripe, he began the second round of refining the golden needle talisman

I apologize for being unable to disclose the source of this talisman. May I ask if your esteemed establishment would be willing to accept it?

Beast Blood Condensation

Although Ye Chenfeng was dressed very simply and was half a head shorter than an average adult, the service at Baiyun Shop was excellent. A young woman, lightly made up and wearing a white lotus root qipao, whose mature and voluptuous figure was exceptionally alluring, approached with a seductive sway of her slender waist and asked in a pleasant voice

If he fails again, the losses will be even greater, and he will have no chance of turning the situation around

The continuous integration process is the most difficult and critical aspect of refining the array symbols, and even a slight error can lead to complete failure

Approximately ten minutes later, Ye Chenfeng felt that the beast blood array symbol had gradually stabilized and began to integrate other materials into the array pattern

Success, it has finally succeeded

Ye Chenfeng took a deep breath, his hands forming various hand seals, following the attack patterns of the Golden Needle Talisman to control the soul power within his body and refine the array patterns

Ye Chenfeng grew up in the Ye family and knew that an ordinary quality array talisman could sell for 100,000 taels of silver, while array talismans crafted by renowned masters were even more valuable

As the marks created by his hands became increasingly rapid, the blood of the ferocious beast seemed to come alive, swiftly coalescing in mid-air and surging into the formation.

Bang ... ... failure

This young gentleman, may I inquire what you wish to purchase

The refinement of the array pattern is merely the first step. In order to endow the golden needle talisman with formidable offensive power, it is essential to incorporate materials such as the blood of ferocious beasts, celestial star sand, and premium vermilion into the array pattern, thereby unleashing the most potent force of the array.

After approximately half an hour, two attack formations coalesced within the yellow jade talisman paper, forming a slender and indistinct golden needle

I do not know how much silver this golden needle talisman can sell for, but I think fifty thousand taels of silver should be acceptable

The young woman slightly raised her eyebrows and glanced at Ye Chenfeng, who was dressed in a loose robe and had an unfamiliar face. She felt that he did not seem to be playing a prank and asked, "May I ask how you obtained the array talisman, and from which master did it originate?"

This subtle fluctuation of the soul directly resulted in the failure of the formation fusion, turning it into ashes

Initially, under the control of Ye Chenfeng's soul power, the fusion of the array symbols proceeded relatively smoothly. However, gradually, as his soul power was rapidly depleting, he began to feel somewhat powerless, and a slight fluctuation appeared in his soul

Gazing at the golden needle talisman floating before him, Ye Chenfeng, overwhelmed and dizzy from exhaustion, exhaled a breath of turbid air, revealing a deep expression of surprise

In just twenty minutes, he condensed the soul power array patterns and refined them onto the yellow jade talisman paper, beginning to control the blood of the ferocious beasts and integrating materials such as starlight sand into the array patterns. During the fusion process of the array talisman, Ye Chenfeng, who was severely drained of soul power, once again felt a sense of dizziness, causing a slight disruption in the golden needle array talisman, nearly resulting in failure.

Phew, that was close, I almost failed again

In the early morning, a thin layer of rosy dawn appeared in the east. Ye Chenfeng, wearing a human skin mask, stepped into the Baiyun shop, a three-story building shaped like a pagoda, where two imposing stone lions stood guard at the entrance.

However, Ye Chenfeng's realm is too low, and the soul power within him is too weak. It is extremely strenuous for him to condense the array patterns. If it were not for the fact that the Soul Devouring Art he practices is sufficiently extraordinary, with a recovery speed far surpassing that of ordinary soul arts, he would not be able to support the consumption required for condensing the array patterns with his current realm and strength

"Failed again, three thousand taels of silver are gone once more." Looking at the ashes of the golden needle formation, Ye Chenfeng felt like crying but had no tears.

I hope there are discerning individuals in Baidi City, otherwise I will once again find myself in a predicament, Ye Chenfeng murmured to himself
