Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?!

“I want to sell talismans,” Jiang Cheng declared.
“Alright, please follow me,” came the reply.
The female cultivator led the way, with Jiang Cheng and Liu Qing walking side by side behind her.
Before long, the three arrived at the trading hall next door. The senior sister gestured on a screen in the hall, and after a moment, rows of scrolling text appeared on it.
“These are the talismans collected on behalf of the Task Hall. Which type does junior brother wish to sell?”
Jiang Cheng looked at the screen, which scrolled through various talismans’ names followed by their purchase price, using a mixed payment method of Contribution Points and Spirit Stones.
According to the information on the screen, first-tier talismans were mostly paid for with Spirit Stones only, and only second-tier talismans could earn Contribution Points, but the number obtainable was very scarce, only one or a few.
In this way, selling talismans for Contribution Points was completely hard labor. A single talisman for just a few Contribution Points, a hundred kinds of talismans for just a few hundred Contribution Points.
However, when one thinks about it, it made sense, as the Immortal Sect was not lacking in resources. Using talisman resources to trade with the sect naturally wouldn’t yield much in return.
Realizing the situation, Jiang Cheng didn’t pretend anymore, “Senior sister, may I ask which kind of task within the sect can earn more Contribution Points?”
The senior sister pondered and said, “That’s hard to say, but if I must, it would naturally be those tasks that no one is willing to undertake. These often come with extremely high risks, even risking one’s life, hence they can earn higher Contribution Points.”
Risk one’s life?
If people are risking their lives for tasks, then they indeed deserve high Contribution Points.
Although Jiang Cheng wanted to rack up Contribution Points, he had no intention of gambling with his life.
Moreover, this place was the Immortal Sect, not the Liang Kingdom. With many experts in the sect, if he and Liu Qing encountered danger and Liu Qing lost her temper…
The aura of the unfamiliar Mahayana cultivator on her would certainly be detected by the Mahayana cultivators of the sect.
That would truly be a major issue.
Jiang Cheng’s dream of retiring would also instantly burst like a bubble.
“May I ask if there are any tasks that are relatively safe but also offer high Contribution Points?” Jiang Cheng inquired.
The female cultivator’s face revealed a strange smile, “Actually, there are, but such tasks are often quite unusual. Would junior brother really like to take on one?”
Jiang Cheng said, “Could I see them first?”
“No problem.”
The three left the trading hall and returned to the Task Hall. With a few taps of her fingers, the senior sister presented Jiang Cheng with some “unusual” tasks.
The publication dates of these tasks go as far back as a thousand years!
They were like “aged treasures” and “ever-fresh goods.”
Task one: Ingest an Inverse Yang Pill and assist the Spell Institute in researching the applicability of cultivation techniques. Males only. Reward: 100,000 Contribution Points.
The Inverse Yang Pill was an elixir that dissipated one’s vitality, simply put, “chemical castration.”
After reading it, Jiang Cheng inwardly exclaimed, “My goodness, this task is pure ‘drug testing’!” No wonder the reward was so high and it had been hanging there unbclaimed for so long.
Task two: Oral hygiene, requiring regular teeth cleaning for the Spiritual Beasts of White Peak Heavenly Lake, with a certain degree of risk. Body Cultivators preferred. Reward: 10,000 Contribution Points.
Task three: Prototype airship test pilot, requiring assistance with the Artifact Refining Institute’s experiments with new airships. Experience in operating airships required, not afraid of death. Reward: 60,000 Contribution Points.
One bizarre task after another made Jiang Cheng sweat profusely.
No wonder no one took them; there were reasons for it.
After browsing, Jiang Cheng finally found a suitable task.
“Elixirs salesmanship, need to push a batch of stockpiled elixirs, with the ability to speak well and have good charisma. Reward: 10,000 Contribution Points, with additional Spirit Stone commission based on the number of sales…”
Jiang Cheng silently recited the task details and then said to the Tongtian Sect senior sister, “Senior sister, is there any other information you can provide about the elixirs salesmanship task?”
“Just a moment, let me check.” After looking up the task’s publication details, she explained, “This task was issued by the Spirit Plant Garden, apparently because one year there was a plentiful harvest of spirit plants, and the supply exceeded the demand, forcing them to refine some of the harvest into elixirs for storage. But this batch of elixirs has never been sold, and now they are probably about to expire.”
So, they were about to expire.
Urgent time, heavy task, no wonder it offered both Contribution Points and a Spirit Stone commission.
Jiang Cheng then asked, “Senior sister, may I ask what kind of elixirs are they?”
“Um… It seems they are third-tier Recovery Pills.”
Recovery Pills. Recovery-type elixirs, put simply, were for restoring mana.
They could help cultivators replenish a significant amount of the missing spiritual power within a short period and were generally taken during combat to prolong the cultivators’ battle duration.
“Nowadays is an era of peace, with cultivators having fewer battles, hence the Recovery Pills had remained unsold for so long.”
“Indeed,” the senior sister nodded and said, “Shall we look at the next one?”
“No need, I’ll take this task,” Jiang Cheng said with a smile.
“Ah? You just said it’s a peaceful age with no demand, yet you still want to take it? This batch of elixirs is probably not small, not that easy to sell. Junior brother, as your senior sister, I must remind you that partially completing such a task doesn’t count as completion, and others can refuse to pay you the Contribution Points.”
“I know, thank you for the reminder, senior sister. I’ll take this task,” Jiang Cheng responded.
“Really a strange one,” the senior sister muttered, but seeing Jiang Cheng’s calm expression, she felt he wasn’t joking.
Let it be, the young always aim high, and it may not be a bad thing to experience setbacks.
The senior sister didn’t try to dissuade Jiang Cheng any longer and efficiently helped him complete the procedures for taking on the task. freewēbnoveℓ.com
After signing the contract, Jiang Cheng successfully got the contact details of the person in charge of the Spirit Plant Garden.
