Chapter 175 - 175: This Is the Power of the Talisman Scripture!
Linhai Immortal City.
In the quiet room.
The identity jade token engraved with the mark of a mountain fire floated in front of Pei Huoyu. Her divine sense seeped into the jade token, and her senior brother Li Yin’s slightly excited voice continued to sound.
“Junior Sister, this change is huge. I didn’t expect the headquarters to actually create a new core jade token and use an unfinished experiment. Just from this, it can be seen how determined and important the headquarters are to nurture core members this time.
“Although we didn’t find out the specific distribution of resources, it’s definitely unprecedented. Junior Sister, this is a huge opportunity. You have to grasp it tightly!”
Listening to the voice, Pei Huoyu hurriedly asked, “Senior Brother, do you mean that the new core members can use contribution points to exchange for restricted-level resources in advance for this change?”
“That’s right. Not only that, if the core members perform well and can be ranked on the Glory Ranking or the Hidden Dragon Ranking, they can obtain the reward of restricted resources every half a year!”
As Li Yin spoke, he seemed to deliberately lower his voice. “Moreover, the higher the ranking, the more generous the restricted-level rewards you obtain. It’s said that this reward includes the Jade Immortal Brew, the Silver Saint Flower, the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Heart Fruit.”
With every resource item listed, the shock in Pei Huoyu’s eyes increased. In the end, her eyes could not help but widen, and her valiant face surged with disbelief. “Top-grade restricted resources… H-how is this possible!!”
She was shocked.
The resources in the treasure vault of the True Treasure Pavilion were all-encompassing. As long as one had enough contribution points, it was easy to build their foundation and form their core. However, it was a little difficult to condense their Nascent Soul. This was because the various supplementary treasures of the Nascent Soul Realm only increased the chances in other aspects. Whether they could succeed in the end depended on whether their mental state could safely transcend the Mental Demon Tribulation.
However, if he could exchange for restricted-level resources, it would be different. He could rely on some special resources to resist the Mental Demon Tribulation. Therefore, restricted resources were the most important core resources of the True Treasure Pavilion.
There were also levels to such resources. Among them, top-notch restricted resources were undoubtedly the best. However, only Class A core members, the hall masters of the various halls, and some powerful core upper echelons were qualified to exchange for resources of this level.
In the end, the headquarters actually took out such resources as a reward for this change. It was simply unbelievable.
“Junior Sister, I didn’t believe it at first, but this news has already spread in the headquarters! In at most a month, the new core jade token will be distributed to every core member of the headquarters. At that time, you can directly ask Talisman Master Shen if it’s true.”
Speaking of this, Li Yin reminded her seriously, “Junior Sister, I know your personality very well. You’re usually not good with words. Even if you did something, you wouldn’t spread it around. However, this change is extraordinary. Although Talisman Master Shen’s talent and potential can’t compare to the new genius taken in by the Hall Master, he performed very well during the assessment back then. He might not be on the Glory Rankings, but as long as he’s given time, he still has a high chance of entering the Hidden Dragon Rankings!
“So, other than urging him to cultivate and comprehend the Talisman Scripture, it’s best if you can befriend him more. If that Talisman Master Shen rises to the top of the Hidden Dragon Rankings in the future, not to mention obtaining top-notch restricted resources, you could enjoy the high-level restricted resources endlessly.”
Pei Huoyu came back to her senses and the ugly thing she had seen before subconsciously appeared in front of her. Her earlobes were tinged with a rare blush as she gritted her teeth and said, “Senior Brother, what do you mean by that?!”
Li Yin quickly replied, “Your Dao techniques and combat experience are rich and powerful. It’s easy for you to guide a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. What I mean is for you to exchange more Dao techniques with him and increase your relationship with him. This way, not only can you increase his strength, but he can also better break through to the Hidden Dragon Ranking. It’s killing two birds with one stone!”
Hearing this, Pei Huoyu could not help but ask in confusion, “Senior Brother, don’t the skill geniuses in the headquarters usually focus on comprehending and cultivating the various scriptures? Why do you mean that we have to experience killing and fighting on the rankings this time?”
Li Yin’s voice sounded, “I’m not too sure about the details. The new core jade token has changed a lot, and it’s difficult for me to find out more details. Anyway, you’ll know in a month. I’m telling you this to let you understand the current situation. Once the core jade token is distributed, the higher-ups of the various halls, pavilions, ships, and other factions in the headquarters will pay attention to the Glory Ranking and the Hidden Dragon Ranking at all times.
“Although the core members have always received the attention of the higher-ups of the headquarters, the increase in resources this time has multiplied.”
After ending the message, Pei Huoyu fell into deep thought.
Zhongsheng Continent.
A spirit peak floated in the distance of the Grade Six spirit vein abode that Yu Qingling was in, and a simple pavilion sat at the peak of the spirit peak that was ethereal like a paradise.
At this moment, the space in front of the pavilion suddenly rippled.
Soon, an old man in a white robe appeared. The moment he stepped into the pavilion, two waves of magic power condensed. Perfected Yu and his wife bowed respectfully and said, “Greetings, Hall Master Dan Hai.”
The old man smiled amiably and said, “How has my disciple, Qingling, been cultivating recently?”
Perfected Yu hurriedly said, “Qingling’s progress in the scripture is very fast. A while ago, she could already see the shape of the pill beast.”
Hearing this, Hall Master Dan Hai stroked his beard and praised, then said, “You should have heard about the core members of the headquarters recently, right?”
Perfected Yu nodded. “Hall Master, aren’t the rewards for the two rankings too generous this time? Although those top-notch restricted resources are mainly used by cultivators below the late-stage Nascent Soul realm, if we nurture them like this, I’m afraid it will be too encouraging and easily cause the foundation of the core members to be unstable!”
Hall Master Dan Hai shook his head and said, “This was personally instructed by the Main Hall Master. It’s difficult for us to guess his intentions, but no matter what, this change is a good thing for Qingling.”
Perfected Yu hesitated for a moment and said, “Although it’s a good thing, Hall Master, you also know that Qingling is a little special. Now that she used that experiment in the core jade token, I’m afraid she’ll be affected!”
“What will come will come.” Hall Master Dan Hai smiled faintly and said, “As long as she’s here, she’ll be fine no matter what impact she suffers. Alright, I came this time mainly to tell you about Qingling’s future cultivation arrangements.”
Northern Rock Marsh Region.
At the edge of the Yulin Mountain Range outside the Linhai Immortal City. Shen Ping looked at the Level One demon beast in front of him and pressed his fingers together. Magic powers quickly surged from his fingertips and outlined hidden patterns in the air.
Psst.
In the blink of an eye, this special spirit rune disappeared. When it appeared again, it arrived at the demon beast’s head and quickly entered its forehead. As he withdrew his balance control of the spirit rune, the hidden rune instantly exploded in the demon beast’s head.
Sensing the dimness of the demon beast’s aura, Shen Ping heaved a sigh of relief. He clenched his fists in excitement. “I’ve finally mastered the Hidden Rune!”
There were the first six special spirit runes, from Qian runes to Vibration runes. He had completely mastered it in less than two years. However, it had been almost a year since he started cultivating the first hidden rune of the last six. It could be seen how difficult it was.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, it’s still early. You can find another demon beast to test the power of the first scroll of the Talisman Beast Scripture.” Pei Huoyu took a step forward and stood beside Shen Ping.
“The power of the Talisman Beast Diagram?”
“That’s right. Since you’ve already grasped the hidden runes, you should be able to unleash a portion of the power of the talisman beast diagram. As for how to unleash it, didn’t Perfected Yun Ya leave you a jade slip before he left?”
When he heard that, Shen Ping hurriedly took out the jade slip and immediately permeated it with his divine sense to read all kinds of information about the first volume of the Talisman Beast Scripture.
It had to be said that Perfected Yun Ya had put in a lot of effort. The method of using the first talisman beast diagram and the things to take note of were recorded in detail. But previously, he had mainly read the knowledge of the twelve special talisman scriptures and had not read the Talisman Beast Scripture.
“The strange beast pattern is the first volume of the talisman beast diagram. Although it’s a combination of three special spirit runes, the Qian, Stack and Return, and focuses on defense, if it’s made using the principle of outlining the Vibration Runes, the overall will become very unstable. At this time, it can use the balance of the hidden runes to control it.”
After reading it, Shen Ping’s eyes lit up. “It can actually be used like this!”
He could not help but lament in his heart that Perfected Yun Ya was indeed an existence close to a talisman master. Previously, he had never thought of this. After all, the talisman beast diagram came from the scripture given by the headquarters. It was different from ordinary talismans, and he subconsciously felt that it was difficult to outline the talisman beast diagram.
However, from the looks of it, his thoughts were stiff.
Several hours passed. After failing many times in a row, Shen Ping finally succeeded in imprinting the talisman beast diagram on the demon beast’s head, as if he had mastered the hidden runes.
Boom.
As the strange beast pattern exploded, the demon beast’s brain did not explode as expected. Instead, it was directly annihilated into nothingness. Powerful energy fluctuations swept in all directions with the demon beast as the center. In an instant, everything within a hundred feet was destroyed.
Pei Huoyu reacted extremely quickly. The moment the energy spread over, the golden patterns on the light armor dress flickered and condensed into a golden round shield to resist this violent energy.
“This, this is the power of the Talisman Beast Scripture?!” Looking at the terrifying scene in front of him, Shen Ping was dumbfounded. He did not expect the Talisman Beast Scripture’s strange beast pattern talisman to be so terrifying.
Pei Huoyu smiled faintly. “Fellow Daoist Shen, the headquarters spent a lot of resources to nurture geniuses with all kinds of skills. They didn’t even hesitate to increase their status and even let the Golden Core protect them as a Dao Protector. They don’t just value ordinary skills and the strength they have when they become a Nascent Soul cultivator in the future.
“The super power that can be displayed by various scriptures is one of the goals of the True Treasure Pavilion. Moreover, it’s also an important reliance for the
True Treasure Pavilion to be able to cross the five continents and four seas without falling.”
Shen Ping took a few deep breaths and suppressed the raging waves in his heart. His eyes gradually emitted a dazzling light.. If the power of the talisman beast diagram was so powerful, what would happen if he used the talisman beast diagram to cast the Sea of Talisman?
