"Bang! Bang!"
A series of muffled thuds rang out, and it took three layers of water magic talismans shattering to significantly weaken the power of this sword strike.
Lin Xiuyuan then activated his spirit shield to defend himself, barely managing to block the attack.
This is enough to show just how powerful this sword strike was!
However, seeing that she had recalled her spirit sword and did not continue her attack, Lin Xiuyuan put down the talisman in his hand.
The woman with the green veil sheathed her spirit sword, glanced at Huo Yun who was still attacking but was easily blocked by the spirit shield, a strange light flashed in her eyes, and she said:
"Fellow Daoist Lin is truly blessed to have subdued the Fire Python as a spirit beast. That's quite remarkable! If she grows up smoothly in the future, she might even become a Golden Core Great Demon. However, if she keeps running around, she might not have the time to grow up."
Upon seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan waved his hand to stop Huo Yun's attack.
Huo Yun glanced coldly at the woman with the green veil with her icy, indifferent vertical pupils, then slowly swam back and came to Lin Xiuyuan's back.
The woman looked up at Lin Xiuyuan and slowly said, "I have already witnessed Fellow Daoist Lin's strength, and now I am even more certain of it. It is indeed difficult for me to kill you alone, but Fellow Daoist, don't forget where I come from."
"Moreover, although Fellow Daoist Lin is strong, it is not difficult for me to kill him if I want to!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned her hand and a talisman appeared in her hand. But it was different from ordinary talismans. It was covered with a golden-red light and was much larger than usual, as if it were made of gold brick.
Moreover, the spiritual energy it emitted was extremely powerful!
The mere release of this substance created an extremely oppressive feeling.
It was as if they were facing the imposing aura of a high-level cultivator.
The instant Lin Xiuyuan sensed it, a feeling of palpitation spread uncontrollably from the bottom of his heart.
"A talisman?"
Lin Xiuyuan slowly uttered two words, his expression instantly becoming extremely solemn.
However, he wasn't too worried. The power of the talisman was indeed very strong, with its strongest power reaching as much as 70% of the power of a Golden Core cultivator's magic weapon strike.
However, the power unleashed by those at different levels is naturally different.
However, with her cultivation level, she could at least activate the talisman and unleash the full power of a Foundation Establishment cultivator's attack!
This was also a fatal blow to Lin Xiuyuan.
However, it takes a certain amount of time to activate, and it is limited by one's cultivation level, at most it can only unleash the power of the Foundation Establishment stage.
Therefore, Lin Xiuyuan was not too panicked at the moment. Unless there was another way to trap him, he would have already escaped far away when the talisman treasure was activated.
Seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan nodded to himself and said, "Indeed, if you wanted to kill me, it wouldn't be difficult. However, the secret realm is vast, and I truly don't believe you can trap me in a deadly situation and use your talisman to kill me!"
The woman smiled, then easily retrieved the talisman, saying calmly:
"Let's not beat around the bush. You've already tested my strength and seen what I rely on. Fellow Daoist Lin, give me a straight answer about the trip to the Demon Cave: are you going or not? Or are there any other conditions?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan did not show the obvious rejection he had shown before.
This move was made out of a sudden impulse, but Lin Xiuyuan was not very confident in finding treasures in the demon cave, and he was also unaware of the other party's background. Therefore, he made a move to test the waters, wanting to see what kind of confidence this woman in the green veil had.
If even he using seventy percent of his power is difficult to withstand, then is there any point in going?
After a brief exchange, Lin Xiuyuan had a clear understanding of her strength; even if he went all out, it would be difficult to kill her.
Not to mention, the other side also has a magical artifact.
Having witnessed all of this, Lin Xiuyuan's desire grew even stronger.
Secondly, it demonstrates its own strength in order to secure more benefits for this cooperation.
The other party understood this very well.
Lin Xiuyuan, saving himself the trouble of saying more, immediately nodded and said, "You have already given me what I want to see, but the danger is still great. May I ask how many talismans you have?"
“We have two talismans in total, the other one is on my cousin!” she replied straightforwardly.
"Only two?" Lin Xiuyuan frowned.
The woman with the green veil, seeing Lin Xiuyuan's expression, shook her head and smiled, saying, "These are talisman treasures. How many more do you want? Two talisman treasures are enough to protect us when we retrieve the treasure and return safely. That's more than enough!"
"Even so, the danger is still great. The talisman can only be activated a few times at most. That is a demon's lair, full of demonic beasts, in groups."
Lin Xiuyuan shook his head, but unlike before, he did not show a clear refusal. He said directly, "This matter is still extremely dangerous. I need some time to consider it."
The woman gave Lin Xiuyuan a deep look, clearly sensing his interest, and didn't press the matter further, simply nodding and saying:
"Alright, we'll need some time to gather and exchange communication jade talismans. We'll need a reply within about a month. Also, to boost Fellow Daoist Lin's confidence..."
Having said that, she slowly removed the blue veil from her face.
Then, she revealed a stunningly beautiful face with delicate features, skin as smooth as cream, and light makeup. But just a touch of red lipstick was enough to evoke endless fantasies.
She wasn't stunningly beautiful, and paled in comparison to Qin Suwan, but she possessed a unique charm—elegant, refined, noble, and aloof.
