Talisman Reincarnation - All My Clones Are Dao Ancestors-Chapter 124: A gift to Jianjin
The discussion concluded soon.
Ziling’s plan of recruitment was largely successful.
Although the specific people would still have to join, based on their talk, she knew that she had already filled over 30% of her own quota.
She looked at the group and smiled, "Two cultivators from Jiming, one from Puyan, one or two from Longbao, two from Miaoyu and one to three from Fu Xian. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
Seven to ten fourth cultivators will join our neighbourhood!
This has already nearly filled my own quota.
The rest depends on senior brother Helong.
He can decide whether he invites some or gives the quota to us, or even opens it up fully for people of the Immortal City to sign up for."
As for the third stage cultivators... no one present seemed to be overly concerned.
While there were 170 spots to fill, their own quota was only fifty. Filling fifty would be easy for them.
The rest could be filled slowly.
Recruiting higher cultivators was to quickly expand the neighbourhood. Whether in size or economy, it mainly depended on these higher cultivators. Third stage cultivators hadn’t yet reached the point of leading a whole industry.
Even if Fu Xian opened a store, he would only be able to generate income for himself. Creating an industry that would benefit the neighbourhood would require more.
The meeting ended and most rose up.
Puyan and Jiming, the two closest to the fifth stage, stayed behind to discuss a few more things.
Fu Xian left with Longbao and Miaoyu.
Both of them seemed to have something to ask, so they looked at each other for a moment.
Longbao thought his matter wasn’t secretive and could be solved easily, so he asked directly, "Your connection, that Tortoise Daoist, how well do you know him? And how strong is his defensive and movement power?"
Fu Xian replied without holding back, "The Tortoise Daoist is a very kind person, but he is also extremely ruthless. I saw with my own eyes how he was able to protect himself from the attacks of three enemies of the same stage without being injured, even attacking behind his shield.
His speed on earth is that of a normal cultivator, but in water, he’s as fast as a sea beast of the same stage.
Senior brother, are you thinking about employing him as a guard for your transport?"
"Junior brother saw through me. Haha, I am just thinking of the future.
If the relationship with those people can be arranged, then my Zui Clan will probably sail a large ship into the river.
While we do have our own family member guards, our business has mainly been on land, and these guards mostly protect our trade routes.
Sea routes are difficult to protect and our family doesn’t have the capacity to send several strong elders.
If we can hire a late stage Spiritual Core Defense Master, then it would relieve a lot of our worries."
"Senior brother, this matter of the future, you don’t have to worry about. I will personally go and invite the Tortoise Daoist. When he’s here, you can test him, or you can ask one of the warriors to test his defensive power."
"Very well, then let’s do it like this." Longbao agreed. Naturally he said these words so that Fu Xian could discuss them with the Daoist before he arrived here.
Else, why would this cultivator leave the city right after joining it?
Guarding missions are strenuous and take a long time.
Just looking at the warriors, few attended the neighbourhood gathering. Isn’t it because they are all outside, unable to stay for long?
If you get a new home, wouldn’t you want to stay in that home for some time before going out on business trips?
Longbao left, and Miaoyu on the side chuckled, "It seems junior brother has already made many plans with brother Longbao.
Then it’s time for me to make some plans, right?"
"As long as I can do it, I will definitely help senior brother!"
Miaoyu smiled when he heard this, "Then I will be direct. It’s like this, my Jianjin is either aloof or focuses on cultivation and comprehending the Sword Dao, so you haven’t met him.
But he heard about you and he wanted to ask whether you have any defensive talismans for sale.
They aren’t for him but for his disciples. They are about to journey the world to reach the third stage according to the lineage tradition of Jianjin.
Although he wants them to experience the hardships, he doesn’t want them to die.
If you have a talisman that can be used by lower cultivators, that would be great."
"It’s just this? Senior brother Miaoyu, since senior brother Jianjin will join the neighbourhood, we are basically family. Giving a gift to the juniors is normal.
How many disciples does brother Jianjin have?"
"He has three disciples, all who cultivate the sword dao. Their inspirations have formed and they only lack experience to transform their inspirations into Origin Light!"
"Three disciples? Senior brother Jianjin’s teachings must be extremely thorough.
Here, these are Ancient Tree Bark Talismans.
They are full-body protective talismans that can be easily used by lower cultivators.
Once used, they last for a year.
I recommend the disciples use them directly when they enter a dangerous region. The defensive power can be hidden until a fatal moment appears.
I only have three of them right now, I hope senior brother doesn’t blame me!"
"How could I blame you? Three pieces, one for each. They only need to block the fatal attack.
From there on, they can use the medical materials I leave behind."
Fu Xian handed three talismans to Miaoyu before giving a few more cautions on how to use the talisman, how to make sure it remained stable for a whole year, and a few other things.
At the end he even told him that it could be used on treasures or anything, in case the juniors found something, they could simply put it into a jade box and then put the talisman on the box.
The talisman has the aura of a tree and can conceal non-living things, even making them appear to be a tree trunk or branch.
