Chapter 146: Examination

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

It was five in the morning.

The discussion in the bedroom ended.

Perfected Qiu changed into a long brown-purple dress and smiled charmingly. “It’s been a while since we last met, and Guest Elder Shen’s Foundation Establishment power has become more and more profound. This time, not only did it eliminate the bitterness acc.u.mulated by my cultivation, but it also almost filled my Golden Core Dao. If I can’t control myself when hosting the auction on the high platform, I’m afraid 1’11 have no face to meet my former Fellow Daoists again.”

Shen Ping hugged Perfected Qiu and said in a low voice, “That will depend on Senior Qiu’s control over the magic power of the Golden Core.”

The two of them talked for a little. Then, they walked to the door of the hall. Before he left, Shen Ping continued, “Senior Qiu, after the auction, will the other members be transferred over from the Cave Division or the Region Division?”

Perfected Qiu’s heart was filled with joy, and her face became even more charming. She said gently, “Both the Cave Division and the Region Division would transfer members. But this level requires Elder Peng’s approval. He has quite a lot of connections in the Region Division, so it’s easy for him to leave a few cultivators behind.”

Shen Ping nodded and remembered this matter. He would just mention it to Elder Peng when he saw him later. He had just returned to the small courtyard when Pei Huoyu’s eyes lit up. She could already sense that Shen Ping’s Foundation Establishment magic powers had increased again.

It was obvious. The wine tasting earlier caused the blood of the strange beast to boil again.

“Senior Pei. Does Perfected Qiu have a special physique or bloodline?” Shen Ping turned sideways and asked. He had encountered such a situation on Yu Yan. The special physique she had made him expend a lot of effort, but even the Inner Charm Fire Body was not as difficult as Daoist Qiu.

Pei Huoyu said softly, “The blood of strange beasts is a restricted resource. Only top-notch special physiques and bloodlines can cause this blood to boil. You’ve had strange phenomena in both wine tastings. This is extraordinary. However, Fellow Daoist Shen, don’t worry. This matter will be beneficial to you.”

Shen Ping heaved a sigh of relief and hesitated.

“The blood of a strange beast has an extraordinary origin. This is the first time I’ve encountered a situation like yours. Fellow Daoist Shen, if you have any other thoughts, feel free to say them.” Pei Huoyu noticed Shen Ping’s expression and could not help but say.

Shen Ping hesitated, but he still briefly explained the problem he had encountered while tasting the wine.

“So Fellow Daoist Shen, you’re saying that you actually failed?” Pei Huoyu’s valiant face revealed a strange expression as she looked down.

The corners of Shen Ping’s mouth twitched as he hurriedly said, “Senior Pei, I’m very normal. Very normal.” As he spoke, he continued, “It’s not because of her physique or bloodline. Perhaps it’s related to her body. Does Senior Pei know about this?”

“No. And never will be.” Pei Huoyu replied firmly and walked towards the quiet room. However, when she crossed the door, she sent a voice transmission. “Fellow Daoist Shen, you can go to the treasure vault to buy jade slips in this aspect. The one in the Zhongsheng Continent who has studied this deeply is the Moon Lotus Holy Sect. Although their core cultivation technique doesn’t exist in the True Treasure Pavilion, it has been recorded in detail in other aspects.”

Another few days pa.s.sed.

In the small courtyard.

Smelling the fragrant spirit rice and beast meat porridge, Shen Ping pinched Bai Yuying’s delicate face and praised, “Not bad, Ying’er’s culinary skills are getting better and better.”

Bai Yuying scooped a spoonful and brought it to Shen Ping’s mouth. “Thank you for your praise, husband, but I still can’t compare to Sister Yun’er.”

Shen Ping smiled and said, “Yun’er is coming back soon. When she comes back this time, she can cultivate with you, so Ying’er, you have to work hard. Otherwise, if Yun’er catches up to you, I’ll increase your quant.i.ty every night in the future.”

Bai Yuying had a bitter expression. “Husband, Ying’er can’t roll anymore. You should look for Sister Yu Yan!”

Yu Yan shook her head with a smile. “Ying’er, Husband is too powerful now. I can’t help you.”

Bai Yuying gritted her teeth. “I will definitely work hard to cultivate.”

Shen Ping smiled and chatted with his concubines for a while before asking about the recent situation in South City.

Ever since Mu Jin arrived at the shop, the operation of the shop has been greatly improved.

The most obvious thing was that the number of talismans and puppets sold every month had increased. Just by relying on the profits, he could barely provide the ordinary resources needed by his wife and concubines for their daily cultivation.

Yu Yan explained briefly before saying, “Husband, I heard from those rogue cultivators who often visit our shop that recently, there have been more and more cultivators around Qingyang Lake. They all came from other markets in the Wei Kingdom. It seems to be related to the Luosha Demonic Valley.”

Shen Ping frowned. “Demonic cultivators have always been violent and murderous. They don’t like stability. Could it be that they want to cause trouble again?”

He had only lived a few years of peace from Cloud Mountain Parlour to Qingyang City. He didn’t want any more trouble.

Yu Yan pondered for a moment and said, “Husband, there’s no need to worry. Qingyang City is jointly guarded by the Danxia Sect and the Acacia Sect. There’s also the main garrison of the True Treasure Pavilion here. Even if the Luosha Demonic Valley wants to cause trouble, they have to consider it carefully. Moreover, with Senior Pei’s protection, no matter what happens, it won’t be like Cloud Mountain Parlour.”

Shen Ping’s brows relaxed, and he thought to himself that he had suffered from imaginary fears. His current status was far from what Cloud Mountain Parlour could compare to.

Northern Rock Marsh Region, Desolate Mountain Range.

Blood enveloped the core.

The blood-colored patterns on Ancestor Jinyang’s body were squirming. His white hair was already black, but his face was no longer handsome and elegant. Instead, it had a demonic aura. The aura that soared from his body was like a ferocious and violent Blood Crocodile.

“The Blood Sea Scripture is indeed a supreme treasure. If 1 can learn the essence and cultivate it to the Small Accomplishment realm, 1 can run rampant in the Northern Rock Swamp Region. Once I master it, 1 can even challenge the five continents and the four seas!”

Ancestor Jinyang smiled. After breaking through to the Divine Transformation Realm, he saw the true content of this true scripture. Some of the divine powers and spells recorded in it could be said to be monstrous.

No wonder that Ancestor Blood Crocodile was only a Blood Crocodile from the Ze Kingdom. After obtaining the true scripture, he even dared to go to the headquarters of the True Treasure Pavilion in the Zhongsheng Continent to cause trouble.

“Western Sect’s Buddhist Sect… 1 have to be careful in the future. However, 1, Jinyang, am not as stupid as Ancestor Blood Crocodile!”

Buzz-

While he was deep in thought, the surrounding blood color became even richer. Waves of pure blood-colored energy fused into Ancestor Jinyang’s squirming blood-colored patterns, causing his aura to become even more sinister.

Zhongsheng Continent, Spring Garden headquarters.

In the magnificent dark red hall, several majestic aura phantoms descended.

There was a real figure on the blood-colored throne. “The eight ancient sacrificial arrays in the five continents and four seas have been activated again. We just have to wait for Blood Silk’s body to be able to withstand the energy of the sacrificial array. We’ll see our gains after waiting for a long time.”

An ethereal voice sounded from the phantom. “I’m afraid this matter might not be as we wish in the end, but we have to give it a try. If those old stubborn people from the other sects and True Treasure Pavilion stop us, there’s no need to care about old relationships.”

The other phantoms nodded in agreement.

Little Spirit Peak.

In a long pavilion on a mountain rock in front of the hall, the fragrance of tea filled the air. Perfected Yun Ya sat cross-legged on a futon with a jade table in front of him. There were a few talismans on it and the spirit patterns on them were complicated and profound.

Shen Ping stood at the side and waited silently. Pei Huoyu admired the scenery in the distance.

A moment later, Perfected Yun Ya looked at the talisman and casually drew two spirit patterns. The originally messy spirit patterns instantly formed a beast-shaped pattern.

He smiled gently and said, “Every beast talisman in the Talisman Beast Scripture contains the truths of the Dao of Talismans that are difficult to comprehend. Even if you can truly comprehend the bronze patterned beast talisman in the first volume, it’s enough for a Talisman Master to benefit endlessly.”

Speaking of this, Perfected Yun Ya glanced sideways and said, “Talisman Master Shen, you’ve been practicing the Basics of Talisman Daoism for nearly a month. You should have some doubts today, but before 1 answer them for you, I’ll test you.”

Shen Ping bowed and said, “Senior Yun Ya, please guide me.” He walked to the opposite side of the jade table and stood still.

With a wave of his hand, only a blank talisman paper was left on the jade table. He raised his talisman brush and casually drew two special spirit patterns before looking at Shen Ping.

“Qian Rune.” Shen Ping replied respectfully.

Perfected Yun Ya then drew eight special spirit patterns.

“Qian Runes, Overlapping pattern.”

“Not bad.”

12, 36… 200.

It was clearly the evolution of the three special spirit runes, Qian, Overlapping, and Hui.

A smile appeared on Perfected Yun Ya’s face. “Not bad. You can quickly see the type of special spirit runes. You can be considered to have entered the elementary stage of the Talisman Scripture.”

Shen Ping hurriedly said, “Thank you, Senior Yun Ya, for giving me the ‘Basics of Talisman Daoism’. If not for your detailed annotations inside, 1 wouldn’t have been able to master it so quickly.”

Perfected Yun Ya did not deny it because even an outstanding Talisman Master would have to spend a long time practicing the basics of the Talisman Scripture before they could quickly identify the differences between the twelve spirit runes. The annotations were summarized by him after spending a lot of effort.

This was also why he dared to challenge the difficulty.

Whoosh.

He waved his hand. New talismans were replaced on the jade table. He looked up at Shen Ping. Perfected Yun Ya drew out with the rune brush again. This time, it was a combination of spirit runes, and it was also the most difficult threshold in cultivating the talisman scripture..
