Cultivation: I Have a Golden Talisman
Chapter 155 - 136: Daoist Brother’s Blessing of Beauties
An incense stick’s time later.
Fang Cheng refined a portion of the pill’s medicinal power, restoring about ten percent of his Magical Power before hurrying away.
Not long after, he found a secluded spot and hid deep within a patch of Golden Sword Grass. He then activated a Second-Order Concealment Talisman to hide his presence.
He didn’t know how many other Cultivators were on this level of the space. If he ran into anyone in his current condition, his chances of survival were slim.
And then there was Wang Yuntian. With the Wang Family’s resources, he might have some Spiritual Elixirs and Wondrous Medicines that could help him recover quickly. Once Wang Yuntian was back on his feet and found him again, repelling him wouldn’t be so easy.
The Essence Supplement Pill wouldn’t fully restore his Magical Power anytime soon. For now, the best method was the Joyful Zen Skill. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
Fang Cheng took out the Water Cloud Bead. The Treasure Bead was crystal clear, and inside it, two beautiful Female Cultivators, no bigger than ants, lay side-by-side and motionless on the deck of a painted barge.
Feng Ling was still unconscious.
As for Bai Su Yi, Fang Cheng had used a Talisman to seal her Magical Power and Divine Sense, leaving her unable to move.
’A Female Cultivator from a Mystic Sect...’
Fang Cheng’s gaze fell on Bai Su Yi, a thoughtful expression on his face.
He hadn’t killed her earlier, not out of any tender feelings, but to keep an option open—to give himself more room to maneuver.
Now it seemed he had no choice but to use this woman to restore his Magical Power.
He first buried the Water Cloud Bead in the ground, then released all his Vajra Gu to stand guard around the area. With a flash, his figure vanished as he entered the Treasure Bead.
...
Wen Qianqian’s vision blurred, and the next moment, she found herself in the center of a grand, ancient hall.
The Stone Stele she had spent so much time with also appeared silently.
"Where... is this?"
Wen Qianqian scanned the hall and saw a statue of a Golden Armored Divine General enshrined at the front. It was a full fifty feet tall, incredibly lifelike, and radiated an imposing aura.
Just as she was pondering this in confusion, light surged from the Stone Stele and coalesced into a graceful figure, capturing her attention.
"This is the Trial Pagoda for the introductory disciples of the Myriad Phenomena Immortal Sect."
The light transformed into an illusory young girl, only about a foot tall, who began to speak.
Wen Qianqian looked at the girl, and with a flash of insight, she asked, "You’re an Array Spirit?"
The girl smiled slightly and nodded. "That’s right. If you hadn’t completed the Array, I would never have appeared in this world again."
Wen Qianqian’s heart filled with curiosity. She asked gently, "In all these years, has no one else besides me completed the Array?"
The girl explained, "Back when the Immortal Sect fell, the Elders, to be safe, divided the sect’s inheritance into thirteen parts. They arranged for them to appear in the world at different times, one after another. I’m not sure about the status of the other Immortal Collections, but since the Elder refined me, you are the first person to awaken me."
Wen Qianqian asked curiously, "The Elder who refined you must have had a very high Cultivation Realm, right?"
A look of reminiscence appeared on the girl’s face. "He was a Peak Cultivator at the Dharma Stage. If the Immortal Sect hadn’t been defeated, he certainly would have broken through to the Tribulation Realm..."
Wen Qianqian’s heart pounded wildly. The Dharma Realm was a realm above the Life Soul Realm. In the history of the Yun Country, there had never been a Cultivator of such a level.
To receive such a heaven-sent opportunity now... it truly felt like a dream.
The girl found her expression amusing and couldn’t help but let out a giggle. "Since you’ve completed the Array, you are now a Disciple of my Immortal Sect. The future revival of the Myriad Phenomena Immortal Sect now rests on your shoulders."
Wen Qianqian shook her head. "I’m just a weak woman. I’m afraid I can’t do it..."
The girl waved her hand dismissively, speaking with an air of aged wisdom that didn’t match her appearance. "It’s fine. Do you know why I brought you here? There are two drops of Holy-Grade Celestial Dew here. The Trial Pagoda’s Grand Array spent three thousand years refining them by drawing upon the Heaven and Earth Origin. If you use one drop of this Celestial Dew, you can forge a Supreme Dao Foundation and are guaranteed to reach the Life Soul Realm in the future. The remaining drop can be used to win someone over—to find a powerful protector."
The moment she heard "protector," Wen Qianqian immediately thought of Fang Cheng.
The girl paused, her small face filled with seriousness. "My Myriad Phenomena Immortal Sect was founded on the Array Dao and the use of Talismans. At our peak, we had four Tribulation Immortals presiding over us, their might shaking the Red Profound Realm. You are now the one to carry on our sect’s teachings. If you propagate this lineage of our Immortal Collection, it’s not impossible for you to nurture a future Tribulation Immortal. When that day comes, you will be the grandmaster of a Tribulation Immortal!"
Seeing how truly simple and naive the girl was, Wen Qianqian didn’t have the heart to crush her hopes, so she only said gently, "If things were as easy as you say, the Myriad Phenomena Immortal Sect would have been revived long ago."
The girl laughed. "Well, that would be perfect! If the other lineages appeared earlier and cultivated powerful successors, we can just go and merge with them. That would save you from all this pressure."
Wen Qianqian smiled faintly and fell silent for a moment. Suddenly, she heard a noise from outside the Divine Temple and asked in surprise, "Is someone else here?"
Back when she was enjoying herself in Purple Cliff Cave, Fang Cheng and Ye Yan had explored the ruined pagoda without telling her or Die’Er the details.
She hadn’t asked many questions either, so she knew very little about the appearance of the Myriad Phenomena Immortal Sect’s ruins.
A divine light gleamed in the girl’s eyes as she glanced outside. "Oh, it’s a Cultivator who came in looking for opportunities. You just wait here. He might make for a decent protector!"
With a flicker, her tiny form flew into the Divine Statue at the front of the Divine Temple.
Immediately after, the Divine Statue came to life, emitting a vast and heavy aura no different from the other Life Talisman Cultivators Wen Qianqian had seen.
The Divine Statue strode out of the Divine Temple, and a moment later, the booming sounds of thunder echoed from outside.
Curious, Wen Qianqian walked to the entrance of the Divine Temple and looked out. She saw the Divine Statue locked in battle with five Thunder Talisman Dragons, Thunder Light flashing everywhere amidst thunderous booms.
In the distance, a young Daoist was directing the Thunder Talisman Dragons, his face grim. He seemed to be under immense pressure.
