Chapter 194 What attracts you most

Reveal its beautiful and mysterious landscape.

Such words came to my lips.

Pei Huoyu didn't say it in the end. Although she didn't care much about the physical body, she was too embarrassed to talk about such a secret matter.

Monks transcend the mundane world and pursue immortality, but the seven emotions and six desires of the human world still influence the emotions of most monks. She has not yet reached the state of being oblivious to everything, and the sense of shame in her heart is still there.

Li Yin looked at Pei Huoyu, whose face was filled with shame and anger, and his expression softened a bit. He began to persuade her earnestly: "Junior sister, you have always been persistent and will not be easily swayed by others. Master knows this clearly, so he asked me to come here."

"What I said just now was a bit harsh, but it was mainly for your future. In the Zhenbao Tower, including in the cultivation world of the five continents and four seas, resources are more important than anything else. The gap between the Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and God Transformation realms is huge, and the A-level core represents resources!"

"Now, all the halls in the headquarters have sent their core members to Lanhai Immortal City. Their purpose is to win over Master Shen Fu. I even heard that many hall masters and high-ranking officials are using their connections to replace you, the protector!"

Pei Huoyu's heroic face suddenly became startled, "Brother, he, they really want to use this method?"

Li Yin nodded and sighed, "Master Shen's return to the top of the Hidden Dragon Ranking has caused a huge stir in the headquarters. He has passed the fourth level of the trial with only the first volume of the beast form, which means that he has realized the final state of the beast form. The master Jing Yu, who was accepted by the hall master, is a monster in terms of talisman talent. Such geniuses were not too rare in the past, but those who can realize the final state like Shen Ping are extremely rare!"

Speaking of.

He continued helplessly, "So let alone Master, even if the Palace Master himself came out, it would be difficult to suppress it. That's why Master asked me to come here. He was afraid that your personality would not get along with Master Shen Fu."

"I reminded you last time. I thought you could handle it, but... Fortunately I came here in person. Otherwise, if I allowed your mental problems to continue, you would most likely lose your status as a protector."

Pei Huoyu suddenly felt a heavy pressure. When she first left the headquarters, she would not care about the identity of the protector at all, but it was different now.

Regardless of the overall situation of the Mountain Fire Palace or the companionship of six or seven years, she didn't want to leave easily.

Thinking of the Blood Infant Crystal on my body.

She forced a smile and said, "Brother, I, I will adjust my mood as soon as possible."

See here.

Li Yin couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. As long as his junior sister could keep things stable, it would become more difficult for the high-ranking officials of other halls to replace their protectors.

In the pavilion on the mountainside.

Yunya Zhenjun stood in front of the jade table, and used his talisman pen to casually draw two special spiritual patterns, the vein pattern and the life pattern. After stopping the talisman pen, he said in an elegant and easy-going manner: "You have already mastered the tricks of the vein pattern. In another two or three months, you will be able to master it thoroughly. Among the twelve basic special spiritual patterns, the life pattern is the most difficult. There is no trick to it. It depends entirely on your own comprehension."

"Some talisman masters can master it in half a month, but some need several years or even longer."

"If you still can't get the point, you can temporarily put aside your research and review the previous spiritual patterns again. Maybe you will gain something."

Shen Ping said respectfully: "Thank you, Senior Yun Ya, for clearing up my doubts."

The two then chatted about the Qing Fu Notes, but most of the conversation was done by Master Yunya, and Shen Ping was listening carefully.

Until almost noon.

Shen Ping and Pei Huoyu just left Lingfeng.

Return to Lanhai Fairy City.

The two of them got on the cloud beast car.

There's not much space in the car.

Two long breaths intertwined with each other.

If it were before.

At most, Shen Ping could admire the curves of Master Pei's light armor, but ever since his last close-range breakthrough, every time he faced this kind of solitary space, he couldn't help but have some different thoughts.

But before he could make any move.

Pei Huoyu's voice rang out: "Fellow Daoist Shen, what are your plans for the future?"

Shen Ping was stunned.

He asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Master Pei means..."

Pei Huoyu said softly: "The core members of Zhenbao Tower usually cannot obtain the treatment and resources provided by the headquarters after they break through to the late Nascent Soul stage. At this time, they can only rely on themselves, or go on adventures, or join various halls to continue to obtain resources for promotion."

"But some geniuses are exceptions."

"Due to their outstanding skills and talents, they are often favored by the various halls in the headquarters in the early stage of becoming core members. For example, Master Jing Yu, who is on the Hidden Dragon List, was recruited by the Mountain Fire Hall in advance."

The voice paused.

Her eyes fell on Shen Ping, and she continued, "And Fellow Daoist Shen, you have already topped the list twice before the review and assessment, so you are naturally qualified to join in advance."

"Now, not only my Mountain Fire Palace, but also other palaces have sent members to Lanhai Immortal City. I believe you will be able to meet them soon."

"The sword master last time saw your potential and recruited you in advance."

Shen Ping suddenly understood.

Pei Huoyu once said that compared with other halls, the Sword Hall had few internal factions and was very united, but the Sword Hall was a place where warriors gathered and was not suitable for him.

As for the Mountain Fire Palace.

With Pei Huoyu's identity, and with Yunya Zhenjun and the green talisman notebook given to him, he actually tends to join the Shanhuo Palace.

only……

The Mountain Fire Palace already has a talented talisman master on the Hidden Dragon List.

Although he was not clear about the specific situation of the headquarters, he could guess that the important resources of each hall should be limited, and it would be difficult to supply the same resources to the two top ten of the Potential Dragon List.

Hesitated for a moment.

Shen Ping cupped his hands and said, "I don't know much about the various halls at the headquarters. Master Pei, do you have any suggestions?"

Pei Huoyu smiled and said seriously, "Fellow Daoist Shen, whether it is the Mountain Fire Hall or any other hall, my suggestion is not to join any of them."

"Why is that?"

"Is there any disadvantage in joining these temples?"

Shen Ping asked subconsciously.

"To become a member of the palace requires taking on corresponding responsibilities, but for you, you don't need to consider these before you break through to the late Nascent Soul stage. As for the little bit of responsibility in the late Nascent Soul stage, it can't be considered a disadvantage."

Pei Huoyu stared at Shen Ping, "The reason why I suggest this is because there are stronger main halls above the Zhenbao Building."

"If you can become the core of the main hall, then even if you don't become a Class A core in the future, the resources and treatment you get from your status will not be inferior to those of the Class A."

Shen Ping's eyes lit up, "Master Pei, are you talking about the Moon Spirit Hall?"

"right."

"The Moon Spirit Hall is one of the twelve main halls of the headquarters, and the Mountain Fire Hall is subordinate to the Moon Spirit Hall."

Pei Huoyu nodded and continued, "Normally, to become a core member of the Yueling Main Hall, one must be a high-level elder or a hall master from each hall. However, there are always exceptions. Among the core members of the Zhenbao Building, there are several who joined the main hall with only the Jindan or Yuanying cultivation levels!"

"Fellow Daoist Shen, I know that you have always loved your wives, concubines and companions. Not only do you want them to go further on the path of cultivation, but you also want to be with them all the time. However, once the review and assessment is completed, you will have to stay at the headquarters for a long time. At that time, Yu Yan, Wang Yun and others will not be able to follow you into the headquarters."

"Only by becoming the core of the main hall can you rely on your status and position to make them follow you!"

Hear this.

Shen Ping frowned.

He whispered, "Master Pei, how long do we need to stay at the headquarters?"

Pei Huoyu replied seriously: "When you break through to the False Infant realm and no longer need me as your protector, you can leave the headquarters and go to the five continents and four seas to hone your skills."

"And the current record for the fastest person to reach the False Infant stage in Zhongsheng Continent is 156 years..."

Two hundred years of foundation building.

The golden elixir lasts for five hundred years.

The further you advance in your realm, the longer it will take to improve.

Shen Ping didn't know if he could break this record, but even if he did, he estimated that it would take him several decades to reach the stage of a fake infant.

No farming for decades.

The fields are barren.

Weeds are flourishing.

Let’s not talk about whether the wives, concubines and companions can endure loneliness.

He alone could not have endured it.

not to mention.

The foundation of everything for him is his wives, concubines and companions. If they were to go without sex for decades, how much improvement would be wasted.

Think of this.

Shen Ping said in a low voice: "How can I become the core of the main hall!"

Pei Huoyu's eyes brightened instantly, and a charming smile appeared on her heroic face, but she shook her head and said, "I don't know, but now there are the Honor List and the Hidden Dragon List, so the higher you can get on the list, the greater your chances will be!"

Shen Ping took a deep breath, and his tone was somewhat firm, "I understand, as long as you can top the Honor List before the review and evaluation, you will definitely become the core of the main hall!"

Pei Huoyu was stunned.

Then her voice became unusually gentle: "Fellow Daoist Shen, the core member who is currently at the top of the Glory List is said to have comprehended the third volume of the Beast Bones, and he has been practicing for 1,300 years!"

Shen Ping said calmly: "So what? The two lists of Glory Hidden Dragon do not look at the realm of cultivation, nor the years of cultivation, but the comprehension of the Beast Sutra!"

After saying.

He added silently in his heart, "This Honor List is too unpredictable. The person at the end of the top 100 only mastered the third volume of animal skins, but the person at the top of the list actually mastered the third volume of animal bones... If it really doesn't work out, I can only make a decision based on the situation. With Master Qiu here, relying on comprehending that huge thing and combining it with the Green Talisman Notes, I may be able to achieve something else."

Pei Huoyu looked at Shen Ping's calm and composed expression, and a strange wave arose in his heart.

She smiled and said, "Friend Shen, do you know what aspect of you is most attractive?"

"When I make fire chicken!"

Shen Ping replied almost without thinking.

Pei Huoyu: “…”

The waves that had just arisen in her heart suddenly disappeared without a trace.

At this time.

The cloud beast car stopped.

The two of them said nothing more and returned to Yongyangfang.

…

late at night.

Dark clouds covered the sky.

The stars are gone.

The beginning of the Mao hour.

Shen Ping had just left Master Qiu's room.

Haven't reached the main quiet room yet.

Heavy rain poured down in an instant.

He used his foundation-building magic power to create a protective aura that prevented the rain from wetting his robe, then he raised his eyes and looked towards the sky.

Wow.

This look.

The perception of the beast's talent came to mind again.

The dark night sky seemed to be filled with extremely terrifying dangers, and the sky might collapse at any time.

Shen Ping frowned and stepped into the quiet room.

After sitting cross-legged and meditating.

The uneasiness caused by the palpitations gradually disappeared.

The spiritual consciousness penetrates the Dantian meridians.

Feel the increase in foundation-building magic power.

A smile appeared on his face.

At this rate, he would be able to break through to the late stage of foundation building in a few months.

However, I thought about what Pei Huoyu said today.

He couldn't help but sigh.

Listed on the honor roll.

Relying on the new talisman beast diagram and talisman magical powers, he still has some confidence.

But the honor tops the list.

Perhaps only by fully unleashing the power of thousands or even tens of thousands of talismans will there be a chance.

pity.

Within a short period of time in the trial assessment space.

He couldn't even produce a hundred new talisman beast pictures, let alone thousands or tens of thousands!

Shake your head.

Start reflecting on yourself every day.

His eyes swept across and fell on the purple crown frame that belonged to his wife.

[Talisman Magical Power: Sea of ​​Talisman Light Wheel (Thousand Talismans) (9280/3w)]

[Destiny Talisman: Second Path (5880/1w)]

There is still a long way to go before the supernatural power reaches the level of Wanfu, and it is impossible to break through at least before the review and evaluation.

But the natal talisman is coming soon.

But it takes at least three years...

Although he could control his strength as he wished after his physique transformed into the Vajra Body, he could not be too partial to either of them when practicing dual cultivation every day.

All wives, concubines and fellow Taoists must accept this blessing.

then.

Shen Ping continued to look down at other virtual frames.

When he saw the great power of the red-pink-framed puppet belonging to Yu Yan, his expression suddenly changed.

Entering the trial space for the second time.

That gentle voice still seemed to let him choose elixirs, talismans, instruments, formations and other skills.

What if I choose a puppet?

This is a great supernatural power.

Thoughts come to mind.

It will never go away.

It is better to be specialized than to be diverse.

Shen Ping was very clear about this principle, so all along, he mainly practiced the art of talismans. Even though the ordinary level of puppets had long surpassed the level of talismans, he still rarely spent time studying puppets.

I only make small items when I have some free time.

But this moment.

He really wanted to try out the power of the Five Elements Breaking Divine Light.

call.

suck.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Take several deep breaths.

The jade token that was penetrated by the spiritual consciousness.

Suddenly.

The spiritual consciousness was concentrated in that narrow room.

Push open the door to the trial and assessment space.

"The new core Shen Ping."

"Please select the skill assessment you want to take, the Dan Fu Qi array..."

"I choose puppetry!"

The voice fell.

The pattern of strange beasts suddenly lit up.

soon.

Shen Ping stood in the dark rocky earth space on the first level.

Accompanied by the emergence of defensive aura.

The densely packed rugged rocks around came alive.

Bang bang!

The jagged rock beast attacked frantically.

He ignored this scene and calmly glanced at the puppet materials in the spirit ring. Gold, wood, water, fire, earth... all the materials for making puppets were complete.

However, Shen Ping soon discovered that there were some very strange parts among these materials, and the surface of these parts was covered with tiny scale patterns.

After taking it out and observing it carefully.

He always felt that the texture of these scales was very familiar.

Close your eyes.

The thought moved slightly.

The texture of the scales of the giant in the sea of ​​consciousness is clearly visible.

This look.

Shen Ping immediately understood that the scale patterns on the surface of these strange parts in the spirit ring were clearly the patterned scales of strange beasts.

Open your eyes again.

He was not surprised.

After all, the Beast Sutra is the core of the Zhenbao Tower, and the various scriptures derived from the Beast Sutra involve many skills. The puppet path should have its own exclusive puppet scripture.

Judging from the picture of the talisman beast.

The Puppet Scripture is also very likely related to strange beasts.

Now he just confirmed it.

Without looking at the ordinary puppet materials, his eyes fell on the parts with patterned scales.

Although he had never studied the puppet scripture, he had the clear patterned scales of the giant creature for reference. In addition to his own research on the new Talisman Beast Scripture and his judgment of the puppet scripture, Shen Ping estimated that the first volume of the puppet beast form was likely to make a patterned puppet! Bang! The defensive aura continued to tremble.

Shen Ping didn't know whether his guess was true, but he still started making the puppet according to the patterned scales of the giant monster.

However, half a cup of tea later.

He frowned. The scale texture on the surface of the parts was constantly changing. Especially when two or three parts were inlaid together, the changes were more pronounced.

"A derivative of a special spiritual pattern?"

Shen Ping shook his head secretly.

He knew that making this kind of puppet with strange beast patterns would not be so easy.

"The most important thing about the Talisman Beast Scripture is the special spiritual patterns. Without the basic spiritual patterns, it is impossible to outline the extremely powerful beast shape of the first volume. The main principle of the new Talisman Beast Diagram I made is to use special spiritual patterns to imitate the texture of scales!"

"What about the puppets?"

He stared at the parts again and again.

All parts, big and small, have very simple scale textures, which look similar to the scales of a giant monster, but if you look closely, you will find some differences.

Time passes by little by little.

Until the defensive aura collapsed and the rugged rocks submerged Shen Ping.

He was looking at the texture of the scales.

Exit the jade card core.

Shen Ping rested for a while and then entered the trial assessment space again.

…

Mountain Fire Temple.

At the front of the Great Glory List and the Hidden Dragon List.

A lot of members gathered.

Shen Ping is now a genius in the art of talismans who is being watched by senior officials in all halls of the headquarters.

The news of his third entry into the trial assessment space quickly spread. Although many people did not think that he could make it to the Honor List in such a short time, they still walked towards the main hall of the palace to look at the list.

However, when Shen Ping entered the trial space for the fourth, fifth, and so on, the other members finally realized what was happening and could only leave with a wry smile.

…

Three months later.

It's the Lantern Festival again in the mortal kingdom of Wei.

In the courtyard hall.

The wives, concubines and fellow Taoists all smiled as they looked at the familiar delicacies. Although they had left Wei for several years, they still had an unforgettable attachment to their former homeland in their hearts.

On this festive occasion.

Shen Ping saw the homesickness in his wives and concubines' eyes, and couldn't help but say, "When Mu Jin succeeds in building her foundation, we will go back to Qingyang City."

Mu Jin is in a critical period of honing her spiritual power these days, and basically stays in seclusion in a quiet room.

There was a hint of joy in Luo Qing's eyes.

Bai Yuying said tenderly, "Thank you, husband."

Shen Ping smiled and joked: "Where is Ying Er's sincerity?"

Bai Yuying's eyes rolled around, "Ying'er has already thanked you with her mouth, what else does your husband want from you in sincerity?"

"Of course it's Ying Er's heart."

"My husband is bad...ah~"

Yu Yan, Wang Yun and other wives, concubines and Taoist partners shook their heads helplessly, but they had already gotten used to this kind of spiritual life, so they ate their meals while enjoying the extreme sports in front of them.

A few days later.

Inside the main quiet room.

Meditate for three hours.

Shen Ping immediately realized that the foundation-building magic power in his Dantian meridians had reached a full state.

His face lit up with delight.

The fingers flashed with light.

Take two pills needed for foundation building.

Then he closed his eyes again.

boom.

As the medicine takes effect.

The foundation-building magic power, which was originally in a full state, began to vibrate again.

Shen Ping's powerful late Jindan consciousness quickly guided this violent foundation-building magic power, circulated it along the meridians, and then hit the bottleneck.

If it were any other foundation-building cultivator.

This bottleneck in the later stage alone would take them several months to slowly break through.

But Shen Ping’s accumulation is too great.

Not only does the total amount of magic power that can be accommodated by the expansion of the meridians far exceed that of the same level of foundation-building cultivators, but his spiritual awareness is also close to the perfection of the golden elixir, and his physique is also an even stronger Vajra body. In addition, there is the blue blood of a strange beast hidden deep inside.

Spirit, body, magic power, etc. are the main factors that affect the breakthrough of cultivation level.

He has such a foundation.

It only took one cycle to break through the bottleneck in the late stage of foundation building and it was a natural breakthrough.

"Foundation Building Level 7!"

"One step closer to immortality!"

After stabilizing the state.

Shen Ping's face was calm, but there was a gleam of joy in his eyes.

The purpose of monks fighting against heaven for their lives is to constantly seek breakthroughs and climb the path to immortality.

Therefore, even a small advancement in realm can bring indescribable joy.

moment.

Calm your mind.

His spiritual consciousness penetrated the jade token.

Not long after, he appeared in the first level space of puppetry skills again.

These three months.

Apart from the initial period when he was immersed in studying the puppet beast patterns, later on, he would only take out a few hours every five days to continue his research.

There is an increasingly clear texture of the monster's scales for reference.

He has figured out the differences in the scale patterns of the parts.

There are thirty-six basic scales in total.

It looks like there are more special spiritual patterns than the twelve in the Talisman Sutra, but in fact the puppet is easier to make, because these scales can only produce different scales when they are combined with each other, unlike the basic special spiritual patterns, each of which can produce complex and varied spiritual patterns.

That's why.

Only Shen Ping could see the basic scales in such a short time.

Otherwise, even if he were given several decades or even a hundred years, he might not be able to summarize the basics.

The key to making a puppet with strange beast patterns now is how to imitate the texture of the scales of the behemoth.

New beast image.

He relied on the methods recorded in the Qing Fu Notes.

Can be a puppet.

He figured it out completely on his own.

However, Shen Ping regarded studying the patterns of puppet beasts as a kind of fun to relieve the boredom of practice. He had long given up the idea of ​​relying on the great magical power of puppets to impact the rankings.

after all.

The various scriptures derived from the Beast Sutra are profound and extensive.

It would be difficult for him, a foundation-building cultivator, to succeed if he had to rely on his own exploration, even if he had a huge monster to refer to.

…

The next day.

Just finished my meal.

Shen Ping saw Pei Huoyu standing at the stone pavilion in the courtyard.

"The core members of each palace have been in Lanhai Immortal City for some time."

"They all want to see you."

"But before, I saw you immersed in your practice, so I stopped them on the pretext of seclusion."

Pei Huoyu said.

This period of time.

Shen Ping was indeed immersed in studying puppets and talisman scriptures, and he had not even been to the Yulin Mountains. Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "Master Pei, since you have decided not to join the various halls, can you not meet these core members?"

After knowing that the palace-level forces could not allow his wife, concubines and partners to go to the headquarters together, he had no interest in joining a force like the Mountain Fire Palace.

Pei Huoyu pondered and said, "After all, they are the core of each hall... If you really don't want to see them, then I will come forward."

Shen Ping sneered: "Master Pei seems willing to do anything for me!"

…
