Chapter 795: Chapter 525: Multitasking, Frenzied Forging
"I never expected Mr. Lu’s talisman crafting skills to reach such a realm!"
The Treasure Tower Master was genuinely surprised.
Initially, she thought Lu Qing only had such skills in the Thunder Shock Talisman.
After all, each has their own specialty; it’s normal for a Talisman Maker to have a talisman they’re best at.
But now it seems he can do this with all talismans.
If that’s the case, it’s truly great news for our Treasure Tower.
"This way, there are many more things we can do; we must plan well!"
The Treasure Tower Master excitedly paced back and forth, with many plans already emerging in her mind.
After walking for a while, she remembered something and asked Lu Qing: "By the way, Mr. Lu, which type of talismans are you best at refining?"
"I’ve delved into quite a lot; I can refine most types of talismans.
It’s just that due to my cultivation limits, the highest level of talisman I can currently refine is only Golden Core Level."
Lu Qing answered thoughtfully.
"Most types of talismans can be refined!"
The Treasure Tower Master was once again shocked.
Her heart then became even more excited.
The surprises Lu Qing brought her were getting bigger and bigger.
"This matter must be planned carefully! Mr. Lu, could you please prepare in advance and start refining some talismans to accumulate?"
"Of course, but if I need to refine a large number of talismans, I might not have enough Spirit Jade in my hands."
"That’s simple, I’ll have Zi Yuan send a batch of Spirit Jade to the Cave Mansion soon.
If there are any other materials needed, just instruct Zi Yuan.
Oh, Zi Yuan, from now on, you’re responsible for obeying Mr. Lu’s orders; no need to be in the front hall anymore."
"Yes, Tower Master!"
Zi Yuan was overjoyed.
It’s obvious to everyone that Lu Qing is now the most favored by the Tower Master.
Being by his side is much more promising than greeting guests in the front hall.
"Miss Zi Yuan, please take care of me from now on." Lu Qing said politely.
"I don’t dare, Master Lu, if you have any requests in future, just instruct Zi Yuan." Zi Yuan quickly replied.
"Then I won’t disturb the Tower Master, I’ll take my leave first."
Seeing the excited look on the Treasure Tower Master’s face, Lu Qing knew she probably had more arrangements to make.
So he wisely took his leave and exited.
Zi Yuan followed him out.
"Senior Lu, I’ll go to the Treasure Vault right now to get Spirit Jade for you."
"Mm." Lu Qing nodded, but then added, "There’s no need to fetch Spirit Jade that’s too advanced, just get some lower and middle-grade ones."
"Yes."
Zi Yuan agreed.
In her heart, she thought that Senior Lu is truly different from others.
The other talisman makers in the building, when refining talismans, wished they could just request all the high-grade materials from the Treasure Vault.
Some would inevitably pocket some for themselves.
If the Tower Master hadn’t set many rules, the abundance of stored materials would not be enough for their wasteful greed.
Yet with Lu Qing, it’s obvious that with the Tower Master’s favor, requesting even more precious materials wouldn’t be a problem.
But Lu Qing had no such intention and only requested middle and lower grade Spirit Jade.
Thinking of this, Zi Yuan’s gaze towards Lu Qing became one of admiration.
It left Lu Qing a bit puzzled.
He naturally wasn’t aware of the petty intrigues inside the Treasure Tower.
Even if he knew, he wouldn’t care.
With his temperament, he wouldn’t engage in taking advantage while accepting offerings from others.
"Senior Lu, I’ve brought the Spirit Jade for you; please check if it’s suitable."
Shortly after returning to the Cave Mansion from the Treasure Tower, Zi Yuan came back from the Treasure Vault with the Spirit Jade Lu Qing needed.
"So many!"
Taking the storage bag Zi Yuan brought, Lu Qing checked it using his Divine Soul Power and was a bit surprised.
There were at least a dozen fine Spirit Jades in the storage bag.
All were top-grade refined Spirit Jades; even though they were lower grades, they were of much higher quality than what he was used to using.
But the Spirit Jade in this storage bag was already quite valuable.
"The middle and lower-grade Spirit Jades are not often used by the talisman makers in the building.
Like Master Qiu and others, they need at least high-grade Spirit Jade to refine talismans.
It’s only their disciples or apprentices who use some low-grade Spirit Jade for practice.
So there’s a large quantity of middle and lower-grade Spirit Jades accumulated in the Treasure Vault, and I brought them all over."
Zi Yuan explained.
"Those guys sure are extravagant." Lu Qing couldn’t help but comment.
At the same time, he once again marveled at the foundation of the Treasure Tower.
He knew that the Spirit Jade he used in his home world was already considered of high quality.
But here, lower-grade Spirit Jade is only something apprentices use for practice.
The gap is quite evident.
No wonder Master Wang and the others were so surprised to see the Thunder Shock Talisman made from lower-grade Spirit Jade.
But perhaps it’s because this world has ample resources to squander.
This causes them to rely more on material carriers when crafting talismans, instead of studying how the Rune Array can be better integrated into talismans for maximum effect.
"In the end, poverty breeds progress." Lu Qing couldn’t help but sarcastically think to himself.
"Senior Lu, is there anything else you need me to do?"
At this moment, Zi Yuan asked.
"Not for now. If there’s anything, I’ll find you. By the way, take these two Jade Talismans."
Lu Qing took out two Jade Talismans and handed them over.
Zi Yuan accepted them and found that one was a Communication Talisman, and the other was surprisingly a Golden Core Level Talisman.
It was the Thunder Shock Talisman she was quite familiar with!
"Senior Lu, this is..."
Zi Yuan held the two Jade Talismans, a bit at a loss.
"Take them. The Communication Talisman is for me to call you in the future, and as for this Thunder Shock Talisman, it’s for your protection." Lu Qing said.
"But Senior Lu, this is too valuable!" Zi Yuan’s hand trembled slightly.
The value of one Thunder Shock Talisman is significant, worth more than many months of her salary.
After working in the Treasure Tower for so long, she was reluctant to even buy a Golden Core Level talisman treasure for self-defense.
"It’s alright, making these little things is no trouble for me; just take them." Lu Qing waved his hand indifferently.
After Zi Yuan left in a daze, Lu Qing returned to the Cave Mansion, activated all the Defensive Arrays to prevent interruptions.
Using his Heart and Spirit, he reached into the storage bag and took out several pieces of lower-grade Spirit Jade.
"Let’s first refine a batch of talismans to test the waters; it’s a good opportunity to test that technique."
Feeling the spiritual charm emitted from the Spirit Jade in his hand, Lu Qing’s eyes held a trace of excitement.
Then he tossed the Spirit Jades into the air, and three pieces of lower-grade Spirit Jade floated in front of him.
He then drove his Heart and Spirit, and his ten fingers moved in tandem.
Numerous runes emerged out of thin air, like birds returning to the forest, embedding themselves into the three pieces of lower-grade Spirit Jade in front of him.
If Master Wang and the others saw this scene, it would definitely shock them.
Because Lu Qing was simultaneously refining three talismans!
Moreover, from the runes he was outlining, he was refining none other than the Golden Core Level Thunder Shock Talisman!
Simultaneously refining three talismans didn’t slow down Lu Qing’s crafting speed by much.
In less than fifteen minutes, three Thunder Shock Talismans were already refined by him.
"Sure enough, the Soul Splitting Technique is mysterious, allowing me to multitask, even for such detailed work as talisman crafting, enabling me to maintain my efficiency."
Indeed, the reason why Lu Qing could simultaneously work on three talismans.
It was thanks to the Soul Splitting Technique he obtained from the Third Saint.
This technique allowed him to split his Heart and Spirit to use them for multiple tasks, without interference.
However, this was Lu Qing’s first time applying it to the art of talismans.
Now he found that the effect was quite satisfactory.
With this, he could greatly increase the effectiveness of his talisman crafting.
He then calmly reached into the storage bag and took out several pieces of lower-grade Spirit Jade.
"Let’s try making a batch of talismans first."
He threw down the Spirit Jades, and nine pieces floated before him.
In rapid succession, symbols appeared out of nowhere and entered the nine pieces of lower-grade Spirit Jade like birds returning to their nests.
