Chapter 327 - 327: Can You Think Normally? (2)
There’s such a huge difference. How could Shen Ping, who had only comprehended the fifth volume of the beast form, pass? At this moment, she heard Bai Yuying ask Deacon Wang, “Deacon Wang, if, if Husband passes the eighth level of the trial, can he reach the top of the Glory Ranking?”
Pei Huoyu shook her head speechlessly. However, she soon saw Deacon Wang reply seriously, “Talisman Master Shen will definitely be ranked second after passing the eighth level. As for the first place, the possibility is small.”
Pei Huoyu was speechless.
Moon Spirit Main Hall.
The same voice sounded from the throne with the moon-shaped pattern. “Shan Huo, do you think that little guy can pass the eighth level of the trial?”
Hall Master Shan Huo was a little stunned. The eighth level. No matter how confident he was in Shen Ping, he had never thought that the other party would be able to pass the eighth level. However, since the Lord of the main hall had asked, he had to reply.
He thought about it seriously. Hall Master Shan Huo replied respectfully, “Lord Main Hall, the difficulty of the eighth level is a qualitative transformation. The outstanding core members of the headquarters need to comprehend the third volume of the beast bone to have a chance to pass. If they comprehend the final state like Shen Ping, they have to at least comprehend the final state of the second volume of the beast skin.”
He hesitated for a moment and said, “But Talisman Master Shen has always been surprising. This time, he passed the sixth and seventh levels in a row, which was even more shocking. Perhaps he has other special methods.”
Hall Master Yueling smiled, “It seems that you know that little fellow quite well. 1 think the other main halls are also very interested in whether he can pass the eighth level.”
There was a hint of mockery in his tone. His figure gradually disappeared, leaving only the voice in the hall echoing. “1 have other arrangements for the teaching of that little fellow’s puppet technique later.”
Elder Huo Han smiled and said meaningfully, “I don’t think that fellow Daoist who made us wait for several hours will appear.”
Li Yin echoed, “Lord Main Hall seems to be very happy that Talisman Master Shen was ranked fourth this time.”
Hall Master Shan Huo did not say anything. Instead, he carefully pondered over Hall Master Yueling’s words.
Dozens of throne phantoms appeared one after another in the ethereal and magnificent main hall.
“Yueling, you’re really lucky this time!”
“Isn’t that right? That little fellow actually passed through the 6th and 7th level in such a short period of time. His natural talent in the Dao of Talismans and comprehension ability in the Strange Beast Scripture far exceeded our expectations, whereas, even though there are differences in the various techniques and scriptures, they seem to have come from the same source. Even if he doesn’t have natural talent, so long as one patiently guides him, he’ll surely be able to accomplish something!”
“Yueling, if that little fellow becomes the inheritor of the Beast Scripture, you have to treat us to a few drinks!”
In the past, these Main Hall-level illusory figures had communicated via voice transmission, but this time, they spoke frankly one after another. It was mainly because this matter was too inconceivable. After experiencing tens of thousands of years, they had never seen such a monstrous genius in the Dao of Talismans.
However, Hall Master Yueling shook his head and said, “It’s too early to say. If 1 remember correctly, the top of the Glory Ranking in the Chen Yao Main Hall has already comprehended a trace of the final state of the first volume of the beast bone. If he can comprehend 30% of it, he will undoubtedly become the inheritor. As for Shen Ping, his Dao of Talismans is indeed extraordinary, but his puppet techniques are not even basic.”
Hall Master Chen Yao said calmly, “That disciple of mine is a little mediocre after all. He’s not as monstrous as this little fellow. We were shocked several times. Moreover, the Head Hall Master once said that she wanted to take him in as her personal disciple. I’m afraid the Beast Scripture inheritance will fall on him.”
Xing Ling and the others in the main hall had complicated thoughts. They each had a personal disciple in the top ten of Glory. They originally thought that there was a chance for them to inherit the Beast Scripture this time, but from the looks of it, Shen Ping was really too monstrous. If they were the Head Hall Master, they would definitely choose such a successor.
“Shen Ping had previously revealed his talent in talisman arrays in the white jade tower. I wonder if he can fuse the fifth volume’s strange beast talisman diagram into one.”
A main hall-level phantom changed the topic.
“If he really fuses it together, he can definitely become the top of the Glory Ranking this time.”
“The power of the final form of the fifth volume is extremely powerful. Ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators can’t suppress its power. That Shen Ping is only in the Foundation Establishment realm. No matter how strong his divine sense is, he’s probably at the early-stage Nascent Soul realm at most. Crafting one is already the limit. How can he fuse it?”
“That’s right. The difficulty of fusing the Strange Beast Talisman Diagram is shocking. We can barely do it.”
“He has only cultivated for a short period of time. In my opinion, even if he can’t do it now, he can do it in the future!”
While they were talking, a warm white light suddenly appeared in the hall. Yueling and Chen Yao immediately stopped talking and cupped their hands towards the highest throne. A warm voice sounded very quickly.
“Everyone, for the newly promoted core disciple, Shen Ping, to be able to obtain the fourth place in such a short period of time, it’s really a blessing for our True Treasure Pavilion. Our True Treasure Pavilion has never been stingy with resources to nurture outstanding talents. From today onwards, Shen Ping can apply for an additional ten chances to enter the Beast Scripture Pavilion and the Beast Spirit Pool. If you have any objections to this, feel free to say it.”
Chen Yao, Xing Ling, and the other main hall-level phantoms looked at each other and said in unison, “We have no objections.” Although the opportunities of the Beast Scripture Pavilion and the Beast Spirit Pool were precious, compared to the inheritor of the Beast Scripture, they were still within their tolerance.
However, the next sentence of the highest throne made the throne phantom in the hall nervous.
“Regarding the inheritor of the Beast Scripture… the conditions are the same.” The gentle voice paused for a moment. Her dignified, holy, charming, and enchanting face looked at the Moon Spirit Throne. “Yueling, I heard that Shen Ping is preparing to break through to the Golden Core realm. Since he’s the most monstrous genius of our True Treasure Pavilion, he needs to be valued. The level of the Golden Core is related to his future. If you need any resources, you don’t have to apply. You can directly take it out of the main hall’s treasure vault and give it to him.”
Hall Master Yueling nodded and said, “Yes, Head Hall Master.”
The other main halls heaved a sigh of relief. Every Class A core could apply for resources that could assist in increasing the level of the Core Pattern. Although the Head Hall Master attached special importance to him, as long as she did not change the conditions of the Beast Scripture’s inheritor or directly set the inheritor, they would not care.
“Every time the new core disciple, Shen Ping, tries to break through to the rankings, he always seems to surprise us. Now that he’s in the eighth level of the trial, even I’m quite interested. I believe everyone is the same.”
The gentle voice suddenly changed its tone with a hint of relaxation. Then, she pointed at the white jade tower in the middle of the hall. Soon, as fluorescent light surrounded it, the white jade tower became transparent.
The gazes of the main hall-level phantoms landed on the eighth level of the bright hall. There was a figure focused on making talismans. When they saw the spirit runes on the talisman, all the main hall-level phantoms revealed as expected expressions.
This Talisman Master Shen even used a self-created spirit rune. Even though it was very difficult to do this, compared to the final state of the scripture, it was relatively easy to create a spirit rune. At the very least, there were many Divine Transformation Realm cultivators in the headquarters who could do it.
“There are more than a thousand Mountain Eagle Beasts on the eighth level. Their scales are closer to that of the strange beast. Their defense and attack power are far inferior to that of the seventh level. However, the defense rune array on this level has also improved a lot. It’s enough to last for four hours. According to the innate ability of the rune array that this little guy revealed previously, I’m afraid he has to make five strange beast rune diagrams.”
“The time on the sixth level is an hour. Since this little guy can successfully make it, I think he can make five in four hours.”
“Making the Talisman Beast Diagram is even more difficult than making ordinary talismans. If his condition is not good, failure is common…”
There was more time on the eighth level. Therefore, Yueling and the other main hall-level phantoms would occasionally converse with each other while watching. However, the thoughts of Chen Yao and Xing Ling had increased.
“In less than an hour, Shen Ping made one. At this speed, he can definitely make five before the defense rune array collapses. Once he really fuses them… he will pass the eighth level. At that time, Chen Yao, your personal disciple’s chances of obtaining the inheritance of the Beast Scripture are probably slim!”
“I believe everyone can see the Head Hall Master’s attitude. In my opinion, even if his puppet skills don’t meet the requirements, the last chance will be this little fellow’s!”
“That’s right. The main purpose of studying dual skills is to better comprehend the concept of the strange beast charm. And this little guy can maintain the final state of perfection. Clearly, he’s suitable to inherit the Beast Scripture.”
He listened to the voice transmission in his ear. Hall Master Chen Yao frowned. How could he not see through the Head Hall Master’s thoughts? However, this concerned the inheritance of the Beast Scripture and the future of the True Treasure Pavilion. Even if there was a chance, he would let his personal disciple fight for it. “As long as the inheritance of the Beast Scripture is not confirmed, you and my disciples will have a chance.”
The other thrones in the main hall did not say anything else. As time passed, the sound transmission in the hall gradually disappeared. All the thrones stared at the white jade tower.
In the eighth level of the bright hall, four strange beast talisman diagrams that emitted a terrifying aura had already floated around the thick figure..
