Chapter 63 - 63:1 Like Talisman Master Shen More
Summer passed and winter came. It was November. Cloud Mountain Parlour, which was already in chaos, welcomed the first cold wave this year.
Late at night, the cold wind blew and snowflakes danced. The room was warm.
Luo Qing, who was sitting cross-legged on the floor, glanced at the swaying shadows beside her. A trace of helplessness appeared on the corner of her lips. Although her husband was very protective of his wife and concubine, he was too good at tormenting them.
She had met many Dao companions in Ze Kingdom. Most of them would occasionally dual cultivate to relieve the boredom of cultivation. However, this person worked hard day and night and never got tired of it.
Sometimes, when she looked at her husband, she felt her limbs go weak and her legs go numb.
“Qing’er.” The voice sounded.
Luo Qing walked over almost instinctively. Soon, the shadow under the crystal lamp slowly lengthened, and clothes fluttered. The clouds dispersed and the rain stopped.
Shen Ping opened the virtual interface out of habit.
[Talisman Master: Level IVro Low-Grade (78,012/150,000)]
[Metal Spiritual Root: High-grade (33323/50,000)]
[Wood Spiritual Root: High-grade (33,215/50,000)]
[Magic Resistance: Level 1 Mid-Grade (1,820/10,000)]
[Lifespan: 47/1011
His expression was calm as he looked at these changes. Only when his gaze landed on the lifespan column did his eyes flicker with excitement. His wife, Wang Yun, suddenly said, “Husband, Senior Yu has taught me a lot of basic knowledge about talismans in the past few months. 1-1 want to do something for you.”
Shen Ping stroked his wife, who was curled up in his arms, and said with a gentle smile, “In the future, when 1 go to the quiet room to cultivate, you can help me organize the various talismans materials in the talisman making room.”
“Thank you, husband!” Wang Yun leaned forward excitedly and kissed him.
Bai Yuying hugged Shen Ping’s arm and said coquettishly, “Husband, 1 also want to help.”
Shen Ping pinched her face and said in a low voice, “There are some scraps left in the talisman making room every day. After cleaning them, put them in your storage bag and accompany Fellow Daoist Yu to deal with them every once in a while.”
“Hehe, my husband is so good!” Bai Yuying kissed his left cheek lightly.
Luo Qing, who was sitting cross-legged, looked over. He said with a faint smile, “Why? Does Qing’er want to help me too?”
Luo Qing replied expressionlessly, “1 don’t have anything I’m good at.”
Shen Ping did not mind. As the saying goes, time reveals true feelings. After nearly a year of intimacy, he used his actions to increase Luo Qing’s favorability to 60. As long as this continued, he believed that he would eventually make Luo Qing submit to him.
After resting for a while, he walked out of the main room and went to the quiet room to meditate. As the cultivation technique circulated, the spiritual energy that was gradually filling up in the meridians in his dantian quickly circulated along the cycle.
After returning from the previous assessment, Shen Ping cultivated for an additional two hours a day in order to break through to the late stage of Qi Refinement faster. Coupled with the help of the medicinal pill and spirit liquid, his cultivation speed in the past half a year was extremely fast. Especially when his aptitude for the metal and wood attributes exceeded 30,000, he clearly sensed that the circulation of spiritual energy had increased again.
At five o’clock, the cultivation ended.
After sensing with his divine sense, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. After the remaining spirit liquid in his body was completely absorbed and digested, he could consume the spirit liquid again and break through to the late-stage of Qi Refinement in one go.
“Soon. March of next year at the most.”
He went downstairs.
Shen Ping smelled a unique flower petal smell. He was a little surprised. During this period of time, Yu Yan rarely went out. There was not much pollen left in her reserves, and she rarely took a bath again. She would only use it when she could not suppress the charm fire in her body.
He quickened his pace. As soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Yu Yan controlling the white puppet to absorb the fog emitted by the hot water. This fog was produced by pollen dissolving in the water.
After the white puppet finished absorbing, Yu Yan could not wait to exchange her cultivation insights. The sound of water rippled. When Shen Ping skillfully turned around to find the door, he heard Yu Yan’s voice. “Let’s turn into a flood dragon.”
He took a deep breath. After making preparations, according to the secret movements of the “Prestigious Techniques”, the muscles and bones in his entire body made cracking sounds as strength gathered.
He lowered his waist.
Hiss.
A scorching heat that was like magma surged from all directions. Even the Prestigious Techniques were instantly thrown aside and could not resist.
Yu Yan, who was ruddy, glanced over. Shen Ping was so embarrassed that he could not show his face. After almost half a year, he thought that he had completely regained his confidence. Now that he had gone through the water again, he realized that he was still defeated like before.
Yu Yan’s eyes were filled with repression. She sighed faintly and said, “Fellow Daoist Shen, it’s not your fault. I’ve been too greedy for sex these few days. Instead, 1 triggered the charm fire in my body.”
Shen Ping felt a little guilty.
Speaking of which, he was the one who suggested this matter. After all, he had already witnessed the power of the divine sense during the battle Yu Yan displayed that time. If he could quickly increase his divine sense to the Foundation Establishment Realm, not only could he sense danger in advance, but he could also try to make a Level Two talisman when he broke through to the late-stage of the Qi Refinement realm and his spiritual energy increased greatly.
The power of a Level Two talisman was extremely great. If he could successfully make it, be it him or Yu Yan, they would not have to worry about the safety of going out. In the end, he did not expect things to turn out like this. From the situation just now, as long as he went through water, he would not have any experience.
“Fellow Daoist Yu. What will happen if your physique continues to accumulate?” Shen Ping asked her.
Yu Yan closed her eyes. “Don’t worry, it won’t affect me too much. At most, 1’11 use pollen to help increase the variety… Alright, you can leave first!” She bit her lower lip and held on for dear life.
The corners of Shen Ping’s mouth twitched. He sighed and left the main room, thinking to himself, Whats going on?
“The Inner Charm Fire Body is a little powerful. I have to find an opportunity to understand it seriously in the future. The True Treasure Pavilion might have a jade slip to record this. However, 1 have to obtain the guest wooden token first.”
As he pondered, he returned to the quiet room. He glanced at the virtual frame.
[Puppet Master: Level 1 High-grade (5,846/50,000)]
[Divine sense: Late-stage Qi Refinement (14,146/30,000)]
Only then did he feel a trace of comfort after seeing this.
Although his divine sense was still half a step away from breaking through to the Foundation Establishment realm, when he broke through to the late-stage of Qi Refinement next year, his divine sense would definitely increase greatly.
In the morning, he pushed open the wooden window.
The cold wind blew away the warmth in the room.
When Shen Ping breathed in the fresh air, he secretly glanced at Room 5 from the corner of his eye. Chen Ying of the Acacia Faction was leaning against the wooden window in a daze. The embroidered shoes under her dress half covered her small and exquisite feet. There was a red rope tied to her ankle. There were purple bells on it that rang from time to time under the cold wind.
“She’s holding back her evil intentions again.” He thought hatefully.
However, Chen Ying’s innocent voice sounded in his ears. “Talisman Master Shen, you’ve stayed in the house for so long, but you’re not willing to come and guide me in my talisman skills. It’s really heartbreaking.”
Shen Ping smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist Chen, you must be joking. 1 heard that the Acacia Faction will be leaving Yunhe Alley soon and was thinking of preparing something for Fellow Daoist Chen. It can be considered as fulfilling our friendship as neighbors these days.”
He wanted to probe the other party’s words.
When the disciples of the various large sects entered the market back then, they said that they would not stay for long. However, more than a year had passed now, and these disciples did not have any news of leaving.
Chen Yingling smiled.” Talisman Master Shen, you’re quite well-informed. Not bad. In a few days, I’ll leave. However, compared to the things prepared by Talisman Master Shen, I prefer… Talisman Master Shen..”
