The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

Chapter 772: Chapter 769: Mutation_1

With such repetition, Yang Chen gathered about forty percent of the materials he needed in a day at the stall.

Two days later, he had collected all the materials needed for the Strange Door Scroll, the Fixing Body Talisman, and the Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talisman.

Seeing the incredible effect of this strategy, Yang Chen tasted success and decided to try to buy more Taichi True Scripture. However, it was clear that his idea was too ambitious, as after waiting for three days, there was no news about the Taichi True Scripture.

Yang Chen had no choice but to give up the idea and chide himself for being too greedy.

There was no way he could obtain enough Taichi True Scripture, as even the rare materials needed for creating talismans such as the Fixing Body Talisman and the Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talisman were all available here. It was truly precious.

It was important to know that getting an opportunity to participate in such a trade fair was very difficult. The event was organized by the high-level members of various forces, and its scale was quite grand.

“It seems my luck has not yet come.” Yang Chen shook his head, “Sect Leader Li, let’s go back.”

Just like that, Yang Chen was no longer greedy and returned to the Green Lotus Sect with Li Ruoxiang.

Upon returning to the Green Lotus Sect, Yang Chen immediately returned to his room and chose to close himself off from the outside world.

Since he had promised Zhu Hailong, he naturally had to do things for Zhu Hailong. Moreover, Zhu Hailong had indeed helped him a lot. The materials he had purchased cost him more than four hundred top-grade spirit stones.

With the materials he had gathered, he could now make three sets of Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talismans and Fixing Body Talismans.

Of course, three sets were the limit.

Yang Chen was nervous as he returned to his room. He took out the materials and the Blazing Fire Spirit Brush.

“I hope it can be successful in one go. Otherwise, wasting the materials would be a real pity,” muttered Yang Chen as he picked up the Blazing Fire Spirit Brush and began to draw diligently.

His experience in making talismans had become much more proficient. As the brush touched the paper, the materials were swiftly spread out over the blank paper. As the materials began to merge with the paper, they formed special runes.

Runes were power, and under Yang Chen’s construction, these runes gradually condensed into talismans.

“Fixing Body Talisman, done!” Yang Chen completed the creation of the talisman!

He put away the Blazing Fire Spirit Brush and carefully examined the Fixing Body Talisman, feeling the strong power within it, and joyfully said, “Not bad, it worked on the first try. It seems my experience with making talismans has gotten increasingly skilled. Of course, the help from the Blazing Fire Spirit Brush also played a part. Otherwise, making a talisman from Qimen Scroll would not be so easy.”

Since he had successfully made one, he proceeded to make the second one.

Yang Chen said nothing and began to make the second Fixing Body Talisman.

Then came the third one.

Next was the Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talisman.

However, Yang Chen lamented that the difficulty of making the Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talisman seemed to be slightly higher. When he made the first Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talisman, he failed.

When the talisman went wrong, the runes suddenly turned into flames and dissipated, causing his previous efforts to be wasted.

Yang Chen didn’t get discouraged, with the experience from his first attempt, he carefully made the second one, and finally succeeded.

Eventually, Yang Chen made three Fixing Body Talismans and two Thousand Miles Instant-Travel Talismans, which would serve as several life-saving measures for him.

Yang Chen let out a gentle breath, as making talismans from the Qimen Scroll was a breakthrough for him.

Having done it once, he could do it again, paving the way for him to make talismans from the Qimen Scroll in the future.

Yang Chen carefully put away the talismans and then looked at the brass sand in the storage bag, promptly taking it out.

“Senior Yun Lu, here’s the brass sand for you,” Yang Chen handed over the dozen pounds of brass sand to Yun Lu without any reluctance.

Receiving the brass sand, Yun Lu happily said, “Young Master, I will feed these Holy Ants with the brass sand right now and see the results.”

Yang Chen nodded. He also observed the situation inside the Eight Extremes River Space.

Yun Lu accompanied the Holy Ants, gradually feeding them the brass sand.

As expected, the brass sand had a mysterious attraction to the Holy Ants. The moment when the sand appeared, the Holy Ants became excited. They eagerly bit and fought each other for the sand, even fighting for it.

The dozen pounds of brass sand rapidly decreased. To Yang Chen’s surprise, in less than a hundred breaths’ time, all of the brass sand had disappeared.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Yang Chen laughed and cried, “Only over three thousand Holy Ants got to eat this brass sand.”

“Yes, they ate it too fast. A dozen pounds is still too little for these Holy Ants. Only a bit more than three thousand got fed, so it’s hard to say what kind of mutation will happen,” said Yun Lu.

Yang Chen stood with his hands behind his back, curious in his heart.

If these dozen pounds of brass sand were wasted, he would have felt like crying. He had obtained this brass sand by chance, so where could he get more?

“Huh!” Yang Chen suddenly exclaimed.

Yun Lu also stared intently at the three thousand Holy Ants.

The two Holy Ants that had eaten the brass sand did change, more than two thousand of them trembled violently but died shortly after the tremors stopped.

Several hundred others scurried about like headless flies, unsure of what had happened to them.

Only two Holy Ants lay on the ground, seemingly on the verge of death, but struggling for a while before eventually passing out.

Yang Chen watched in amazement, “What on earth is going on? More than three thousand Holy Ants died so abruptly.”

Yun Lu wasn’t surprised. She slowly explained, “They are mutating.”

“Mutating?” Yang Chen asked with confusion.

Yun Lu gently nodded, “Yes, mutating, or more accurately, a process of evolution. These more than three thousand Holy Ants are undergoing a mutation process. Once they mutate, they will be completely different from before and can be considered as taking the first step towards becoming Sacred Spirit Ants. This is also why many Holy Ants want to eat brass sand, as it can cause a qualitative change in them, which is something other materials can hardly achieve.”

Yang Chen could understand. It was like when he had spent a large amount of precious materials before, which were worth much more than the brass sand, and yet the Holy Ants had not undergone any mutations.

But just a single dose of brass sand led the Holy Ants to begin mutating!

“But didn’t too many Holy Ants die?” Yang Chen asked.

Yun Lu smiled warmly, “Young Master, you don’t know that the evolution and mutation process of the Ant Race, as well as other races, are extremely difficult. Both processes have only two results: success and ascension, or failure and death. The Holy Ants are no exception!”
