Talismans Manifest Myriad Laws, Proving My Immortality

Chapter 59: The Three Talismans Sect!

Gu Chuanfei, standing beside them, also had a flicker of interest, his expression showing disbelief.

Though the second-tier Serenity Talisman was meant for Foundation Establishment stage use, reaching the perfect level would still be effective for Core Formation cultivators.

"Young friend, do you have more of these talismans?"

Gu Chuanfei asked anxiously, while the County Governor also perked up, waiting for Lu An's response.

Lu An shook his head and said:

"This talisman is of my own design, so I can produce as many as needed. However, the materials are quite rare, so..."

The County Governor slammed his thigh and immediately said:

"It's difficult to obtain the materials, but just provide a list of what's needed, and I will send the Golden Guards to collect them."

"Please prepare more of these for me, and the reward will be generous."

Gu Chuanfei quickly added that he was willing to provide funds for the purchase.

It was no surprise, as the County Governor and Gu Chuanfei were essentially on the same side. Although Guxian County was part of Qi Country and the County Governor was in charge, in reality, the court offered no support for such remote areas, and it was almost like an autonomous region.

This situation had its pros and cons. The advantage was that there was no external jurisdiction, giving the County Governor more freedom.

But the downside is the lack of resource support, meaning everything has to be done on one's own. After Gu Chuanfei left Juyuan Studio, he faced the same situation. Hence, these perfect second-tier talismans were quite valuable to both of them. It wasn't that they couldn't afford them, but there were no places to buy them. Seeing Lu An produce them naturally made them unwilling to miss out.

Lu An then had an idea and used his divine sense to inscribe a jade slip, which he handed to the two of them.

"These are the materials needed for drawing the talismans. Thank you both, seniors."

The two examined the jade slip and nodded in agreement.

"Such a large amount of materials is needed for a second-tier talisman. Fortunately, most of them are common items, so it's not a big problem."

"The Beast Saliva is rare, but the Purple-eyed Tiger's fang powder might be found in the Hongquan Mountains..."

Although they were not well-versed in talismans, they could roughly guess that a second-tier Serenity Talisman didn't require so many materials. Lu An must have included additional materials.

However, these materials were not particularly precious, just time-consuming to gather. They didn't insist on it.

"This matter is settled with us."

After discussing, the County Governor took a sip of wine and turned to Gu Chuanfei.

"Daoist Gu, I am aware of your situation."

"Since you are now a wandering cultivator, why don't we join forces to create something together?"

"With two Core Formation cultivators in charge, such a force in Guxian County would be enough to overwhelm everyone."

"Even in Yongning County City, it would have a place. At that time, we can also support each other."

Gu Chuanfei was somewhat surprised and didn't expect him to propose this. However, the offer was indeed appealing to him. He had not considered this before because he was alone and powerless. But with the County Governor's help, everything would be different.

Wandering cultivators had limited resources, and joining other forces, like Juyuan Studio, meant being under someone else's roof. If he could build his own force and become a high-ranking elder, it would be very satisfying.

Lu An raised an eyebrow; it seemed the County Governor was trying to poach him. However, he didn't say much, knowing his small Spirit Talisman Residence couldn't accommodate a Core Formation cultivator.

Gu Chuanfei pondered for a moment and asked:

"As far as I know, county governors are only allowed to serve the court and cannot create forces privately. You..."

The County Governor, however, laughed heartily.

"Brother Gu, you are well-informed. What you said is correct, so this matter will still need you to take the lead."

"After the force is established, although I won't officially join, I will be considered part of the force."

"At that time, I can mobilize the county office's resources to clear obstacles for us. Why not?"

Gu Chuanfei was even more tempted and turned to Lu An.

"Young friend Lu, what do you think?"

Lu An was slightly taken aback but soon smiled and said:

"Seniors are discussing such a significant matter; how can I dare to give an opinion?"

The County Governor patted his shoulder and laughed:

"When we establish a force, we naturally want you to be involved, so feel free to speak up."

He had already included Lu An, otherwise, he wouldn't have brought it up in front of him.

Lu An understood his intention, smiled wryly, and shook his head, not expecting to be a part of the poaching.

After pondering for a while, Lu An finally said:

"Since the County Governor is sincerely inviting me, I will join."

"But I will still reside in the Spirit Talisman Residence. If the seniors need anything, just send someone to call me."

The two were pleased to hear this. With Lu An's expertise in talismans, it would undoubtedly be a great help to their sect.

"Good. Since we have decided to establish a force, we need a memorable name. Do you have any ideas?"

Hearing this, Lu An and the others were stumped. Naming was not their strong suit.

"Why not call it Guxian Sect? It corresponds with Guxian County."

"No, if the County Governor establishes a sect privately, it might attract the court's attention. How about we call it Tide Rising Gate?"

"The County Governor previously practiced the Tide Rising Technique, which is quite powerful. Using this name is reasonable."

The County Governor shook his head, not liking that name.

...

After much discussion, they still couldn't come up with a name. It seemed naming was even more difficult than establishing the sect.

Finally, Lu An suggested:

"How about we call it the Three Talismans Sect?"

The two were puzzled and asked:

"What does that mean?"

"Which three talents?"

Lu An smiled slightly and pointed at the two of them:

"The Three Talismans are you, me, and him."

The County Governor and Gu Chuanfei exchanged glances and both exclaimed, "Excellent!"

"Good, let's call it the Three Talismans Sect!"

No one knew that a massive power in the wild continent was casually created under such circumstances.

The group drank until early morning before going their separate ways.

The County Governor and Gu Chuanfei had clear responsibilities. The County Governor would arrange for the materials Lu An needed for talismans, while Gu Chuanfei would prepare for the Three Talismans Sect.

With his Core Formation authority, Gu Chuanfei should have little trouble.

As for Lu An, he enjoyed his peace, focusing solely on his cultivation and the study of talismans.

In the Talisman Hall, an elderly man with white hair was speaking sternly to Elder Zhang. If Lu An were present, he would recognize this person. He had missed the first Talisman Hall assessment because the date had been moved forward for this person. Now, this person had brought younger family members, but the situation seemed different.

"Elder Zhang, a few months ago, I asked you to advance the talisman master assessment, but you refused. Now that the date has arrived, why is it still delayed?"
