Chapter 187: Physique Transformation Again

Linhai Immortal City.

With Perfected Yun Ya’s personal guidance, Shen Ping’s cultivation in all aspects of the Talisman Scripture improved by leaps and bounds, especially his mastery of the Talisman Beast Diagram. Even without the Life Divine Talisman, he could balance seven to eight Talisman Beast Diagrams.

Time pa.s.sed quietly as he immersed himself in cultivation.

Half a year later.

In the inner region of the Yulin Mountain Range.

The emerald green forest had pleasant scenery. In a sky-blue pool formed by a waterfall, several beautiful figures were playing. Their fair skin that leaked out from time to time was pleasing to the eye.

Not far from the pool, Shen Ping, who was wearing a plain brocade silver-patterned robe, was not in the mood to appreciate the raging waves and deepness of his wife and concubines. Foundation Establishment magic power lingered on his fingertips as he focused on drawing special spirit runes in the air.

Psst.

He placed the last stroke on his fingertip. In the blink of an eye, this spirit rune flashed out of an area of thousands of feet before exploding with a bang. Waves of strange energy swept in all directions like a violent wind.

Seeing this, a smile appeared on Shen Ping’s face. After cultivating for more than half a year, he had finally completely mastered the Rush Runes. It was much faster than he had expected. And now, there were only four out of twelve runes left, Stab, Coc.o.o.n, Net and Life.

“Not bad. According to this speed, you will be able to completely cultivate the 12 special spirit runes in five to six years at most.” Pei Huoyu, who was standing beside him, had a calm expression. She looked at Shen Ping and asked, “How’s the cultivation of the Green Talisman Sutra?”

Shen Ping turned around and said with a smile, “I’ve already grasped the third volume’s mountain-shaped talisman diagram. Senior Yun Ya said that the fourth volume involves life runes. 1 can only comprehend the fourth volume after I’ve grasped all the special spirit runes.”

The difficulty of the second volume of the Beast Form far exceeded the first volume. Most core members would first comprehend other supplementary scriptures before studying this volume. This way, they could study the second volume more efficiently.

The best supplementary scripture in the Dao of Talismans was the Green Talisman Sutra, and in the treasure vault of the True Treasure Pavilion, exchanging for the first four volumes required a huge amount of contribution points. Under normal circ.u.mstances, the newly promoted core would have to spend dozens of years in the headquarters to acc.u.mulate so many contribution points.

Initially, Pei Huoyu was prepared to use her senior brother’s contribution to exchange for the first four volumes for Shen Ping. However, after ascending to the top of the Hidden Dragon Rankings, her master directly asked Perfected Yun Ya to return and brought the first four volumes over.

“When do you plan to enter the trial a.s.sessment s.p.a.ce again?”

“There’s no hurry. I’ll go after I master the second volume of the Talisman Beast Scripture.” Shen Ping said casually. He was very clear about the difficulty of the fourth level’s a.s.sessment. If he wanted to kill 2,000 swamp demon beasts in two hours, it would be useless even if he produced 20 talisman beast diagrams.

It was precisely because of this that he had not gone to the trial s.p.a.ce again in the past half a year.

However, the other core members often challenged the trial a.s.sessment. Although the changes in the rankings of the Glory Ranking and the Hidden Dragon Ranking were very small, a few members still rose rapidly. Among them, Talisman Master Jing Yu of the Mountain Fire Hall was the fastest. In just half a year, he rushed to the top ten of the Hidden Dragon Ranking.

“By the way, the headquarters will begin to distribute the ranking rewards in three days. The thousand-year-old Spirit Heart Fruit is very precious. You have to keep it well. If you’re really worried, you can temporarily place it at the main station of the True Treasure Pavilion.” Pei Huoyu reminded him.

Shen Ping smiled. “The thousand-year Spirit Heart Fruit is useless to me. With Senior Pei around, 1 believe no one can hurt me. If I really encounter a powerful enemy, even the thousand-year Spirit Heart Fruit probably won’t be able to save me.”

Pei Huoyu did not refute. She was the strongest core of the Golden Core cultivators in the Mountain Fire Hall. The light armor on her body was given to her by her master. It could combine the cultivation techniques and spells she cultivated to unleash the greatest power. It could be said that she could fight Nascent Soul cultivators for a long time.

If she was no match for them, she could also use special methods to invite her master to descend. Under such circ.u.mstances, Shen Ping was indeed very safe. Furthermore, there was Perfected Yun Ya, a talisman master. Even a Nascent Soul cultivator could not do anything to him.

Therefore, the thousand-year-old Spirit Heart Fruit was really not a necessity for Shen Ping.

“The blue strange beast blood is actually more suitable for you. However, you’re at the top of the rankings. If you want to obtain this restricted resource, you can only wait for the next time.”

Three days later.

True Treasure Pavilion’s headquarters.

The powerful battle cultivators led by the sword envoy boarded the flying s.h.i.+p one after another and escorted the restricted resources rewarded by the rankings away.

After most core members broke through to the Nascent Soul realm, they would not stay at the headquarters. Instead, they would go to the five continents and four seas to train. Only when they advanced to the late-stage Nascent Soul realm would they return to the headquarters. At that time, they would either enter seclusion or join the boats, pavilions, and halls of the various factions.

But after becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator, their core treatment would be canceled. At that time, they would have to rely on their own efforts.

Therefore, the core members who had stayed in the headquarters of the True Treasure Pavilion for a long time were the Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators below the Nascent Soul realm. Their cultivation levels were not high, and they were more suitable to cultivate the Beast Scripture in a safe environment. The main protection of the Dao Protector was actually the period of time when they had just become a core to the review and evaluation, as well as a portion of the late-stage Golden Core realm.

Mountain Fire Hall.

When Li Yin pa.s.sed by the hall, he casually glanced at the huge list floating in the air and saw that the top of the Hidden Dragon Ranking had changed.

“He dropped.”

“That Talisman Master Shen fell to second place last night.”

“The A-grade core that was originally ranked second was the former alchemy genius. 1 heard that he often went to the trial s.p.a.ce in the past half a year. 1 didn’t expect that he actually surpa.s.sed Talisman Master Shen the night before the reward was distributed.”

“That’s a thousand-year-old Spirit Heart Fruit. Although Cla.s.s A cores can exchange it with contribution points, no one will complain about having too many resources. Moreover, the reward for the ranking is given by the headquarters. If it were me, I would also fight for it.”

“Eh, Talisman Master Jing Yu has advanced another rank and is ranked seventh. He has risen so much in half a year. As expected of a genius valued by the Hall Master.”

“He’s comprehending the Talisman Scripture very quickly. He went to the Talisman Scripture Pavilion again and might be about to master the third volume of the Talisman Beast Scripture. From the looks of it, he’ll probably be able to jump to the top in a few years!”

“Who do you think will be on the Glory Ranking first, Talisman Master Jing Yu or Talisman Master Shen?”

“Talisman Master Jing Yu. He’s been too energetic in the past six months. On the other hand, it’s said that Talisman Master Shen is still studying the basics of Talisman Scripture. 1 reckon he won’t make much progress in five to six years.”

He listened to the discussions not far away. Li Yin shook his head and sighed. In the past half a year, he had sent a lot of messages to Junior Sister Pei and Perfected Yun Ya. It was mainly because his master had instructed him to keep an eye on Talisman Master Shen’s progress. Therefore, he knew that what these members said was the truth. However, this was not a bad thing, at least in his opinion.

Late at night, the resplendent starlight shone on the small courtyard of Yongyang Market.

The two figures were having a deep exchange on Dao techniques in the room.

Shen Ping controlled his Jade Bone Body to cast a powerful spell. Every time, he made it difficult for Perfected Qiu to resist. Fortunately, Perfected Qiu’s physique was strong and she was a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, so she could barely withstand such a violent spell attack.

Perfected Qiu’s water-type spells had indeed reached the point of perfection. With a slight surge of magic power, she could quickly reveal the Water Dragon Roar and Flowing Water Technique, causing Shen Ping to be in a sorry state every time. He had a unique smell all over his body.

Several times pa.s.sed, Shen Ping hugged Perfected Qiu’s slender waist and kissed her forehead. Then, he let her recite the incantation to clean it up before striding out of the room. He walked to the main quiet room. He sat cross-legged on a cus.h.i.+on.

He calmed his mind. After his spirit platform was emptied, he opened the virtual interface and glanced at the physique column. After so many days and nights of cultivation, the Jade Bone Body finally acc.u.mulated to the point of transformation.

“Breakthrough!” He muttered in his heart.

The silver virtual frame vibrated. The attributes on his physique quickly disappeared and seemed to have turned into an invisible energy that instantly enveloped Shen Ping’s entire body.

Boom!

The intense pain of cracking bones and digging out bones swept over again. Moreover, it was even stronger than when he broke through to the Jade Bone Body. Even Shen Ping’s divine sense and will could not withstand it and he fell to the ground. His body was instantly drenched in sweat.

There were new changes in the physique column at this moment.
