Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Return, 7th Grade Talismans

Xun Mountain, a team of Mount Shu elders and disciples landed in a bamboo forest.

Elder Zhao Wuyan of Zhiyue Peak, leading another team of Mount Shu cultivators, was clearing out the Joyous Union Sect’s stronghold in Xia State.

“Twenty li ahead, is the black market set up by the Joyous Union Sect on Xun Mountain, where heretic cultivators from all over come to trade. It would be best if we could capture one or two of the Joyous Union Sect’s elders or senior disciples alive to extract the precise location of their stronghold.”

“We’ll disguise ourselves as roaming heretic cultivators and infiltrate the black market without alarming anyone.”

Zhao Wuyan, Lu Changsheng’s senior brother, had practiced on Mount Shu for three hundred years and had descended the mountain many times for experience, amassing vast worldly knowledge.

The members of his team, including Zhao Wuyan, were not to be underestimated: two Dao Palace Realm elders, four Nascent Soul Realm elders, and eight Golden Core Realm disciples.

Among these young disciples of Mount Shu, Lin Qjngzhi, Chen Yao, Xiao Xiangdao—outstanding figures of their generation—were all present.

“There are fourteen of us in total. With so many, we are bound to arouse suspicion. Therefore, I plan to split us into three small teams, each with four or five people.”

Zhao Wuyan swept his gaze over those present.

Even if it were Lu, the eldest senior brother, or a direct disciple of the Supreme Elders, one must brave dangers to grow.

Over the tens of thousands of years, Mount Shu had seen countless promising disciples fall along the way.

This was the inevitable path.

Xiao Xiangdao puffed out his chest with pride; his Spirit Sword Physique allowed him to make great leaps in his Sword Dao cultivation, having just reached the ninth level of the Golden Core Realm not long ago.

“Chen Yao is the direct disciple of the Supreme Elders, and the Supreme Elders are the Sect Leader’s senior sister. If I get on good terms with her, in the future, not only will I have my master’s support, but also the connection to the Supreme Elders. There’s even a better chance for me to become the Sect Leader of Mount Shu. It would be best to end up in the same team as Chen Yao, that way I would have a chance to befriend her.”

Xiao Xiangdao glanced at Chen Yao, who was carrying the Skywave Sword on her back.

Chen Yao, the direct disciple of the Sect Leader’s senior sister and carrier of the special “Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady Physique”, held an extraordinary position. Dressed in light green robes, she was ethereally beautiful and peerless, enjoying no shortage of admirers in Mount Shu.

“Shangguan Hong, Fang She, Lin Qjngzhi, Chen Yao, one team.”

Yet things did not develop as Xiao Xiangdao had hoped, for Zhao Wuyan placed Chen Yao and Lin Qjngzhi in the same team.

Xiao Xiangdao’s face subtly changed.

Zhao Wuyan transmitted a secret message to Lin Qjngzhi: “Kid, I’ve given you an opportunity, grasp it well. With this, your master will owe me a favor.” “What do you mean by that, senior?”

Lin Qjngzhi was puzzled—was this not just a normal team assignment for a mission?

“You know what I mean.”

Zhao Wuyan gave Lin Qjngzhi an encouraging look, then began to assign tasks.

Chen Yao sent a voice transmission to Lin Qjngzhi: “Shangguan Hong is a second layer Dao Palace Realm elder, and Fang She is a sixth layer Nascent Soul Realm elder. This descent from the mountain is for the purpose of gaining Sect Contribution Points to exchange for cultivation techniques. Lastly, there’s you and me, with the lowest cultivation levels, still in the Golden Core Realm. If we encounter Joyous Union Sect elders above the second layer of the Dao Palace Realm, we must not engage them and should leave them to Elder Zhao to handle.”

“Understood.”

Lin Qjng agreed with Chen Yao’ s view.

This was Joyous Union Sect territory, where one might encounter Joyous Union Sect elders at any moment.

“I wonder what master is doing at this moment?”

Lu Changsheng accompanied a group from the Xia Kingdom Literary Court to Tianyu Mountain, only to find desolation, with sand and stones covering the ground and blood bats and poisonous scorpions occasionally emerging from the caves.

The Underground Palace of the Reincarnation Hall was among them.

Before entering, Lu Changsheng did not forget to fleece the system for rewards, continuing to bestow treasures upon his disciple.

This time, Lu Changsheng took out a second-rank Talisman.

This was personally crafted by his third disciple, Mo Huazhi.

Lu Changsheng was about to fleece the system scientifically.

[Ding, you’ve bestowed a second-rank Talisman “Great Flame Talisman” upon your disciple “Lian” and received a hundredfold return reward: a fourth-rank Talisman “Separation Fire Talisman”.]

[Today’s bestowment count -1, remainingbestowment allowance is 2.]

Giving a second-rank Talisman and receiving a fourth-rank Talisman in return was within Lu Changsheng’s expectations.

Lu Changsheng then awarded the returned fourth-grade talisman, the “Separation Fire Talisman,” to his disciple.

[Ding, you have awarded your disciple “Lian” the fourth-grade talisman “Separation Fire Talisman,” and received a twentyfold mentor reward return: the fifth-grade talisman “Great Separation Fire Talisman.”]

[Today’s awardable count -1, remaining awardable count is 1.]

Only twenty times the reward this time?

No matter, I still have one more chance to award today.

50   Lu Changsheng then awarded the Great Separation Fire Talisman to Lian.

[Ding, you have awarded your disciple “Lian” the fifth-grade talisman “Great Separation Fire Talisman,” and received a three hundredfold mentor reward return: the seventh-grade talisman “ZhurongGod Talisman.”]

[Today’s awardable count -1, remaining awardable count is 0.]

Success!

After Lian had stepped into the Nascent Soul Realm, he could award treasures of up to fifth grade, allowing Lu Changsheng to elevate the quality of the treasures through repeated gifting.

Lian received a second-grade talisman Great Flame Talisman, a fourth-grade talisman Separation Fire Talisman, a fifth-grade talisman Great Separation Fire Talisman, while Lu Changsheng received a seventh-grade talisman Zhurong God Talisman.

The magical power of a seventh-grade talisman is hard for an ordinary Dao Palace cultivator to bear.

Lu Changsheng now had another life-saving trick up his sleeve.

Not only was Lu Changsheng amassing a collection of seventh and eighth­grade Elixir Pills, but he was also stockpiling various high-level talismans.

The more life-saving methods, the better.

Lu Changsheng’s prudence was maddening.

“I heard little sister say that a fifth-grade talisman is worth a fortune and can only be crafted by a Divine Talismancer. Master is really good to Lian.”

When Lian grew up, she knew that the treasures her master awarded were valuable. Coupled with the fact that her master had protected her since she was young and always managed to clean up her messes, she was even more touched. The generous gesture of Lu Changsheng made even Si Yan, the Second Princess of the Xia Kingdom, who was watching, feel moved.

A second-grade talisman meant nothing to the royal family of the Xia Kingdom.

A fourth-grade talisman was something that a Nascent Soul Realm elder might possess.

A fifth-grade talisman could play a significant role in Dao Palace Realm battles and was already quite precious.

A sixth-grade talisman, which only a few Dao Palace Realm cultivators owned, was extremely valuable, so in Misty Peak, Xia Ningxue reciprocated with a sixth-grade talisman.

A seventh-grade talisman, there are only a handful of people in Xia State who could craft one.

Lu Changsheng casually giving a fifth-grade talisman to a disciple in the Nascent Soul Realm was unquestionably generous.

“Isn’t he keeping any for his own use?”

51   Yan was curious.

If she knew Lu Changsheng had a seventh-grade talisman, she would definitely be so astonished that she couldn’t close her mouth.

A seventh-grade talisman is something not even the State Preceptor of Great Xia could make.

Those capable of crafting a seventh-grade talisman were at least on the level of renowned figures like Yu Xuanji, the Temple Master of the Hidden Dragon Temple.

“Everyone, prepare your Elixir Pills and talismans; it’s time to attack Tianyu Mountain cave and eradicate the demons.”

The State Preceptor of Great Xia swept his sleeve, wrapping everyone in Magnificent Righteous Qi, making them impervious to all poisons, causing blood bats and scorpions to retreat.

Lu Changsheng looked on with new respect; although the State Preceptor of Great Xia was a bit lofty, his cultivation was solid, having completely transmuted the Spiritual Energy within his Dantian Qi Sea into Magnificent Righteous Qi.

His third disciple, Mo Huazhi, who also pursued the Confucian Dao, had a promising future.

Deep within the Tianyu Mountain cave, a few voices could be heard.

“It seems a bunch of rats have sneaked in.”

“It appears Elder Xuelian has indeed been killed, which is why the enemy knows the location of our Tianyu Mountain stronghold.”

“Just perfect; the Lord of the Reincarnation Hall’s blood pool is in need of more sustenance. Their journey here will be one-way.”
