[Puppet Master: Level 1 Mid-Grade (1,766/10,000)]

[Divine Sense: Mid-stage Qi Refinement (5,046/5,000). Can be broken through.]

He opened the attribute panel. Shen Ping skipped the virtual frame of his wife and concubine and looked down. He had broken through to the sixth level of Qi Refinement. The divine sense of the Niwan Palace had also been nurtured and improved, directly reaching the threshold of a breakthrough.

There was no hesitation. With a thought, he said, “Break through!”

Boom.

The virtual frame shook slightly.

His divine sense seemed to be nourished by an invisible energy and instantly rose rapidly. His divine sense, which originally needed to cross the threshold of the late-stage Qi Refinement Realm, broke through to the late-stage Qi Refinement Realm at this moment.

…..

The divine sense of a cultivator was extremely important and had various uses. Especially now that he had a large amount of puppet experience and comprehension. When the time came to make puppets, the stronger his divine sense was, the more puppets he could control.

“If I encounter Fellow Daoist Mu’s charm technique again, I can easily sense and resist it with my current divine sense. However, it’s probably still a little difficult to resist the charm of the Acacia Faction.”

Shen Ping pondered. He recalled the temptation in Chen Ying’s voice when she came to visit. Although it was just a simple test, the smile and the adoration in her voice were indeed impossible to guard against.

“If there’s a chance in the future, I have to try my best to understand this method so that I won’t fall for it in the future.”

Buzz-

At this moment, the communication talisman vibrated slightly. After taking it out, Shopkeeper Chen’s voice sounded. “Talisman Master Shen, are you still in seclusion? If you’re done, please come to the Spring Embroidery Pavilion.”

Shen Ping was not in a hurry to reply. Instead, he pondered. Before he went into seclusion, he had informed Shopkeeper Chen that this seclusion would take at least half a year. And yet, he sent a message after only three months, something urgent had probably happened.

He hesitated for a moment. He still replied, “Shopkeeper Chen, I had some comprehension and temporarily ended my seclusion. May I ask what’s the matter?”

The communication talisman quickly flashed. Shopkeeper Chen said, “The boss officially broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm a few days ago and is preparing to hold a banquet in the Foundation Establishment disciples’ spiritual vein cave abode of the Golden Sun Sect in half a month. Talisman Master Shen is on this list…”

When Shen Ping heard this, he hurriedly said, “Shopkeeper Chen, wait a moment. I’ll go over now.”

He put away the communication talisman. He tidied up briefly and left the house in a hurry. He arrived at the Spring Embroidery Pavilion.

Shopkeeper Chen greeted him with a smile. Before he could exchange a few pleasantries, he noticed Shen Ping’s aura. “Qi Refinement Level Six? Congratulations! Talisman Master Shen, you’re in your middle age, and yet your cultivation breakthrough is getting faster and faster!”

Shen Ping said without thinking, “Shopkeeper Chen, you must be joking. 1 purely relied on this talisman-making skill to buy some medicinal pills and spirit liquid from the True Treasure Pavilion to break through continuously.”

Shopkeeper Chen finally understood, but he still looked surprised. “Talisman Master Shen, you could enter the auction of the True Treasure Pavilion?”

“I was fortunate enough to receive the guidance of a senior Talisman Master of the True Treasure Pavilion.” Shen Ping said humbly.

A warm smile immediately appeared on Shopkeeper Chen’s face. “Talisman Master Shen, you’re lucky!”

“My fortune can’t compare to Shopkeeper Chen’s. The boss of the Spring Embroidery Pavilion has broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm this time. I’m afraid the status of the Spring Embroidery Pavilion will be different in the future. Shopkeeper Chen will also rise with him!” Shen Ping complimented him.

Shopkeeper Chen smiled with a flushed face.

The two entered the shop.

Shopkeeper Chen handed the invitation letter of the boss of the Spring Embroidery Pavilion to Shen Ping and instructed him. After all, there were many Foundation Establishment Cultivators present, including alchemists and talisman masters. If he accidentally said something wrong or offended a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, even his boss would not be able to defend him.

Shen Ping nodded repeatedly and expressed his grat.i.tude at the same time. The incident with the maidservant was over. He originally thought that the boss would leave a grudge in his heart. He did not expect that he would actually send an invitation after his successful advancement this time. It was indeed beyond his expectations.

No matter what the other party’s motive was, this invitation was already enough.

It was rare for him to come out.

So Shen Ping simply sold the high-level talismans he had made during this period of time in the True Treasure Pavilion. At the same time, he also bought some materials to make puppets. Now that he was already a mid-grade Level 1 Puppet Master and his divine sense was at the late stage of Qi Refinement, he was enough to control puppets to fight the enemy. Moreover, he could sell them to earn spirit stones.

However, puppet making was much more complicated than talismans. In the entire market, there were far fewer high-grade puppet masters than talisman masters, array masters and alchemists.

If not for the large amount of puppet experience and comprehension, it would have been very difficult for him to become a puppet master. He left the True Treasure Pavilion. He slowed down and glanced at the cultivators coming and going.

Compared to the days when the Golden Sun Sect migrated a large number of cultivators, the market had indeed regained some of its former liveliness. The only difference was that the number of disciples of the sects had increased. The expressions of the rogue cultivators when they walked were clearly reserved, as if they were afraid of offending these sect disciples.

He returned to the small courtyard in Yunhe Alley. He saw Chen Ying of the Acacia Faction leaning against the wooden window on the second floor. Her lively eyes were in a daze, and it was unknown what bad idea she was thinking.

Shen Ping pretended not to see it and hurriedly walked towards Room Two.

“Eh… Talisman Master Shen has ended his seclusion?” Chen Ying flashed out of the wooden window.

Shen Ping sighed in his heart. What he was afraid of really happened. He hurriedly cupped his hands and said, “Fellow Daoist Chen, I’ve temporarily ended my seclusion. 1’11 continue in a few days.”

Chen Ying chuckled and said, “Talisman Master Shen, the disciples of our Acacia Faction have always been kind to others. Don’t believe some rumors from the outside world… Eh? Talisman Master Shen has broken through?”

“I took some medicinal pills and was lucky to break through.”

“Congratulations, Talisman Master Shen, for taking another step towards Foundation Establishment.”

“I still have something on, so I’ll go back to my room first.”

Shen Ping had just finished speaking when Chen Ying moved in a flash and blocked Shen Ping’s path. “Talisman Master Shen, are you in such a hurry to return to your room because you want to have s.e.x with your wife and concubine?”

Her eyes flickered. “A mortal and a second level Qi Refinement cultivator. Such a wife and concubine are not worthy of Talisman Master Shen’s status. My Chen family has a few people with good apt.i.tude. Do you want to consider them, Talisman Master Shen?”

Speaking of this, there was a hint of temptation in Chen Ying’s voice. “It’s not like I can’t.”

Shen Ping had long been prepared. When she spoke, his gaze was lowered as he looked at his feet. After his divine sense broke through to the late-stage of the Qi Refinement realm, he was not affected by this temptation at all.

“Fellow Daoist Chen is a disciple of the Acacia Faction. I’m just a rogue cultivator. How would I dare to climb up the social ladder? In a few days, a Foundation Establishment senior of the Golden Sun Sect will hold a banquet. I still have to attend. I really don’t have any other intentions. Please forgive me.”

Chen Ying was not surprised. After all, Talisman Master Shen in front of her had the reputation wooden token of the True Treasure Pavilion. It was normal for him to be invited by a Foundation Establishment Cultivator of the Golden Sun Sect.

“How can ordinary loose cultivators compare to Talisman Master Shen’s connections?” She smiled and did not continue to make things difficult for him. “Forget it. If Talisman Master Shen is interested in the future, my Chen family wall always welcome you.”

After she told her brother Chen Yan about Shen Ping, her brother quickly replied and asked her to try her best to rope him in. If necessary, he could even use her body to serve him or even become his Dao companion..
