Chapter Fourteen: Refining the Elixir and Creating Talismans Third Watch

  Looking at the number of collections not moving, I refreshed it hard.

  Yang Lei was taken aback at first, then overjoyed. It turned out that this was the way to complete the first task and thoroughly activate the cultivation system.

  I've been looking at those points values all along without knowing what they're used for, now I finally understand. The points exchange system, as the name suggests, is used for exchanging, and the alchemy system is related to alchemy, while the equipment refinement system is used for refining equipment. Additionally, there's also the talisman creation system, which is used for creating talismans. Plus the previous upgrade system, this all-around cultivation system consists of five parts in total.

  Yang Lei eagerly opened the system.

  First looked at their own properties.

  Player: Yang Lei

  Level: 21

  Root bone: 5

  Health: 3200

  Chi value: 112000

  Integral value: 1420

  Xuanyuan Jue (Fifth Layer)

  Skills: Hurricane Blade Seven Kills

  Pet: Holy Beast Bai Suzhen

  Equipment: Fine Steel Dagger, Flame Ring, Ordinary Storage Ring, White Crane Double Wings, Wind Concealment.

  He had already reached level 21, which was the first layer of a martial artist.

  The system has been fully activated, so what's the point of this points exchange? What are the four major systems for? This is what Yang Wei is most concerned about.

  "Would you like to view the points redemption function?"

  "View."

  The original integral exchange function is to use the accumulated points to exchange for something, such as dan medicine, dan formula, tasks, gongfa, weapons, and so on. There are even lottery cards, which are similar to buying lottery tickets.

  However, your current level is too low and there are not many things that can be exchanged. Upon closer inspection, it appears that only five items can currently be exchanged: a medicinal pill, a medicinal formula, two secret manuals, and a lottery ticket.

  Dan medicine is a Qi supplement, which can replenish the true energy consumed by oneself. It's very practical and requires the least amount of points, but still needs 100 points. The two secret books are actually two skill books: one is primary appraisal technique and the other is primary archery. Each of these skill books requires a considerable number of points, with primary appraisal technique requiring 2000 points and archery requiring 1000 points. The remaining lottery cards also require 800 points.

  It's not easy to get these points, and after such a long time, I've only got 1420 points, which can only be exchanged for Qi replenishment pills, primary archery skills, and lottery cards. Who knows if there will be better things after leveling up, so it's not necessary to consume them now.

  After finishing the points exchange function, Yang Lei opened the alchemy system.

  "Ding, spend 500 experience points to learn Primary Alchemy?"

  "Study."

  "Ding, congratulations on learning basic alchemy."

  Yang Lei was indignant and muttered to himself. This point of merit was hard to earn in the first place, but now the alchemy system required him to learn basic alchemy, and it would cost 500 points. The system was really damn dark.

  At first glance, this alchemy system is just about refining pills. There are many types of pills such as Rejuvenation Pill, Qi Supplementing Pill, Essence Pill, Martial Origin Pill, and so on. However, the crucial thing is that none of them have a pill formula. Most of these medicinal pills require obtaining a pill formula before they can be refined. Currently, only Qi Supplementing Pill and Essence Pill can be refined. The others are grayed out, meaning they haven't been unlocked and require a pill formula to unlock before refining can begin.

  After reading the Alchemy System, Yang Lei hesitated for a moment and opened the Talisman Creation System instead. As for the Artifact Refining System, it wasn't necessary yet since he already had his own weapon, but creating talismans was more important. The symbols on the talismans were always very powerful, although most of them were one-time use items. However, Yang Lei knew that having talismans during battles would give him a great advantage, so he gave up on the Artifact Refining System and opened the Talisman Creation System instead.

  "Ding, spend 500 points to learn beginner-level sigil magic?"

  "Study."

  "Ding, congratulations player on learning basic sigil magic."

  There are many types of talismans, but now Yang Lei can only refine two kinds: the Blazing Fire Talisman and the Freezing Ice Talisman. These two talismans are both low-level yellow-grade talismans, their power is not very great, but for cultivators at the Qi Refining stage, the effect is extremely obvious. If one has dozens of Blazing Fire Talismans or Freezing Ice Talismans, a Qi Refining stage cultivator can even contend with a Martial Artist stage cultivator.

  So talismans are a must-learn, if we can't beat others, we can use talismans to smash them to death.

  Moreover, these talismans and elixirs are very rare, and the alchemists and talisman makers are also highly respected, of course they are generally wealthy people.

  Of course, the materials needed for talismans are also required, just like refining pills and equipment. Yang Lei doesn't have any materials on him right now, no, that's not true, he does have some materials, such as the demon beast's fur, which is actually very good material. After taking a closer look, Yang Lei felt fortunate that he hadn't thrown those things away, otherwise it would have been a huge loss.

  …………

  Martial King's Mansion Inner Courtyard.

  Yang Tian came before Madame Dongfang Caiyu and cried out: "Mother, you must take charge for me!"

  "Heavens, what's going on? Who hit you?" Looking at the mark on Yang Tian's face, Dongfang Caixia was furious. Her own son was her heart's flesh and blood, she couldn't even bear to scold him, yet someone had slapped him with such a big slap in the face.

  "It's that bastard Yang Lei." Yang Tian gritted his teeth and said.

  Dongfang Caoyu was taken aback, "That waste, how is it possible? He can't cultivate, right? Disappearing for a few months shouldn't make him able to beat you, should he? You're already at the seventh level of martial arts now!"

  "I don't know, I was going to slap him, but he slapped me instead. I don't know what kind of evil magic that bastard used." Yang Tian thought about how he was actually beaten by a useless person and felt extremely stifled in his heart, as if he wanted to chop Yang Lei into ten thousand pieces to vent his anger. "I want to kill him, Mother, I want to kill him."

  "Shut up." Upon hearing her own son say this, Dongfang Caiyu couldn't help but rebuke him, "No matter what, he still has the blood of the Yang family flowing through his veins."

  "Mother, but I, I just can't swallow this breath." Yang Tian saw his mother like this, and his tone also softened a lot. He was still afraid of his mother's anger.

  "You yourself don't work hard to cultivate, all day only knowing how to indulge in pleasure and lust, now you're just a martial artist of the seventh level. You bring shame to your father, even your sister is already a martial master. If you had worked hard to cultivate, how could he have slapped you?" Towards Yang Tian, Dongfang Caixia also felt helpless, this son has high innate talent, but his cultivation is not diligent, can't even compare to his own sister.

  "Mother, I..." Yang Tian also felt embarrassed. Recently, news had spread that his sister, Yang Yue, had broken through the Martial Artist's barrier and entered the realm of a Martial Master. He was consumed with jealousy.
