Chapter 240 Trial Assessment Level 8

boom.

The moment the first ripple of energy splashed out of the defensive array, tens of thousands of strange snakes, as fast as lightning, rushed from the surface of the lake and slammed into the surface of the array in an instant. For a moment, the energy ripples spread out like dense raindrops.

Boom! Boom! Boom! The overwhelming attack of the strange snakes caused the entire talisman formation to shake, and it seemed that it would collapse at any time.

For such a terrible scene.

Shen Ping had seen it before.

call.

suck.

Took a few deep breaths.

His heart gradually calmed down.

He took out the talisman materials by himself.

Then pray quietly.

Complete this set of familiarity processes.

Only then did he pick up the talisman pen and write the first spiritual pattern to outline the beast-shaped talisman of the fifth volume.

Although he had successfully made it several times in the past two days, each time it took a long time. The longest time was half an hour. The time that the sixth-level defense array could last was almost the same as the fifth level. In other words, if he delayed too long, he could only make one strange beast talisman at most.

therefore.

In order to make a push for the ranking this time, Shen Ping not only wanted to test the power of the fifth volume's fully developed beast form, but also wanted to see if he could create a beast-shaped symbol faster.

Tsk tsk.

As the talisman pen continues to outline.

Patterns, horns, hooves... the entire outline and texture of the beast quietly jumped onto the talisman paper. It was not until the final whip tail texture was outlined that he felt a bit of effort, especially his tense spirit, which gradually began to become tired.

The hand holding the talisman pen seemed to feel powerless.

This is also the biggest obstacle to the production of the fifth volume. After all, this is the entire beast form. Even if it is not completed, it will exude powerful power and have a significant impact on the talisman master. Fortunately, Shen Ping's spiritual consciousness has already reached the early stage of Nascent Soul and is not far from the middle stage. Otherwise, even if he has the talisman scripture and strange beasts to copy, he will definitely not be able to hold on until the moment of production.

Bang bang!

Sharp sounds came from all directions.

Tens of thousands of strange snakes with triangular patterns on their heads were frantically attacking the defensive array.

The spiritual light of the talisman array kept vibrating.

Shen Ping felt as if his palms were trembling.

But he gritted his teeth and continued.

Two cups of tea passed.

The snail-like tail section finally came to an end.

However, Shen Ping did not relax at all. Instead, he was extremely tense, because the next step was to outline the most crucial spiritual pattern - the life pattern.

The combination derived from this basic special spiritual pattern is the most complex and changeable. At the same time, it is located on the head of the beast. Although the number of spiritual patterns here is not large, they are varied. Even the talisman beast manifested by the natal divine talisman has subtle changes in this place.

Just a slight mistake.

The entire animal-shaped symbol has lost its true charm and artistic conception.

Shen Ping's brush swirled.

Every movement he made was extremely slow. When he reached the bottom of the horn, his face showed a seriousness, and then he began to outline the contours of the head.

Just like that, another cup of tea passed.

The last spiritual pattern was written.

The lifelike shape of a strange beast is revealed on the surface of the talisman paper.

roar!!

Almost instantly.

The entire image of the strange beast was rippling with strange waves, accompanied by a startling beast roar. The roar was like a dull drumbeat that directly shook Shen Ping's mind. Even though he was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but feel dizzy at this moment, and his body, which was concentrated with his spiritual consciousness, was about to collapse.

Wow.

And this moment.

The natal divine talisman deep in the sea of ​​consciousness vibrated.

It soon manifested between his eyebrows.

Buzz~ When the talisman flashes.

The strange beast talisman was shaking wildly, as if some terrifying existence was trying to break free from the talisman paper.

Fortunately, Shen Ping had previous experience.

He hurriedly used his spiritual sense to move the natal talisman between his eyebrows.

Makes the light shine brighter.

Suddenly.

The power of the strange beast talisman that was about to be uncontrollable was completely suppressed, and the phantom of the strange beast that was about to condense above his head directly dissipated.

See here.

Shen Ping breathed a sigh of relief. The power of the final form of the fifth volume of the complete beast talisman was too terrifying. If it weren't for his natal talisman to suppress it, he would not be able to control it at all.

Raise your eyes.

He noticed that the surface glow of the defensive array covering the island had dimmed. Although there was still some time before it completely collapsed, Shen Ping knew that it would be difficult for him to continue making the next one.

"Strange beast..."

His eyes fell on the talisman paper again.

As he looked at the strange beast, scenes from when he started studying the Talisman Beast Sutra in Lanhai Fairy City emerged before his eyes.

Among them were the earnest teachings of Master Yunya, as well as Pei Huoyu's disappointed shake of his head at his difficulty in comprehending the scriptures. After nearly ten years of research, he finally achieved results at this level.

"Let me see your true power!"

Murmured softly.

Shen Ping did not hesitate any longer.

The spiritual consciousness controlled the talisman beast picture and threw it out.

His eyes were fixed on the fluttering talisman paper.

His thoughts calmed down.

Animal Scripture.

The core of everything in Zhenbaolou.

It is also the strongest foundation.

Until now, no core genius of the skill has been able to comprehend the complete beast form of the first level to perfection.

And now.

It was born.

The moment the talisman paper floated out of the defensive talisman formation, the natal talisman released its suppression.

Roar!!! A shocking beast roar was heard instantly.

At the same time, the talisman paper began to burn silently.

In the burning flames.

The shadow of a strange beast slowly emerged, first a single horn, then patterns, hooves, a whip-like tail... followed by a complete outline.

Strange waves emanated from the body of this strange beast.

Time seemed to stand still.

The scene of tens of thousands of strange snakes attacking the talisman formation reflected in Shen Ping's pupils became extremely slow at this moment, but then the phantom of the strange beast condensed in his eyes, like a living behemoth, actually raised its hoof and took a light step.

This step.

It was like stepping out of the burning flames of the talisman paper.

It's like being reborn from the fire.

And as its hooves fell back into the void.

The entire sixth-level trial space trembled.

Shen Ping's pupils suddenly contracted.

Deep in his eyes, he saw that the void was producing tremor aftershocks at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then, with the phantom of the strange beast as the center, it quickly spread out in all directions. All life within the reach of the aftershocks was annihilated in an instant.

Tens of thousands of strange snakes disappeared in an instant as if they were wiped out.

Until the aftermath spread to Shen Ping.

A soft light appeared under his feet, blocking the aftermath.

And at the same time.

A gentle sound rang out in the space.

"Congratulations to the new core Shen Ping for passing the sixth level of the trial space."

"Please take a break and proceed to the next level of trial."

As the sound fell.

The shadow of the strange beast that stepped out of the flames gradually disappeared.

Shen Ping couldn't calm down for a long time.

Just a shadow.

It has such power.

If it were a real strange beast, it would be so terrifying.

Whoosh!

At this moment, he heard a sudden whistling of the wind, and he came back to his senses. He looked carefully and saw that he was standing on the top of the mountain, surrounded by steep cliffs.

"The seventh floor!"

I understand it clearly in my heart.

The gentle voice sounded again.

"The new core Shen Ping."

"The content of the seventh level trial is... Please be prepared, the countdown begins!"

Buzz.

The light of a talisman array soon emerged at the edge of the narrow mountain top.

Bang, bang, bang! Looking at the talisman formation that had just been condensed.

Before Shen Ping could come to his senses, the defensive aura began to tremble. He saw huge strange eagles condensing in the empty sky. These strange eagles looked like mountain eagles in shape, but their appearance and feathers were extremely strange, just like the strange snakes on the sixth floor. What surprised him even more was that the scales covering the surface of these strange eagles were somewhat similar to the texture of strange beasts.

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

However, the total number is not large, only a few hundred.

But the attack power of each one is dozens of times that of the sixth-level monster snake.

He did not rush to draw the talisman diagram. He penetrated the defensive talisman array with his spiritual sense and observed it for a while. He then determined that the support time of this layer of the defensive talisman array was only half an hour longer than that of the sixth layer.

See here.

Shen Ping no longer hesitated.

He immediately took out the talisman materials and picked up the talisman pen to outline it.

This time.

When the defensive talisman formation collapsed, he successfully produced two copies of the fifth volume of talisman beast pictures. Although he still could not activate the talisman magical power, Shen Ping was already satisfied with it.

Boom! The power of the two beast talisman images exploded simultaneously.

The shadow of the strange beast that stepped out of the flames gracefully reappeared. After the aftermath of the void tremor spread, the hundred mountain eagles only lasted for dozens of breaths before they collapsed one after another and dissipated into nothingness.

Passed the seventh floor!

…

Danhai Palace.

In the long corridor.

Yu Zhenjun was accompanying the Lord of Danhai Palace to relax, and the topic of their conversation was naturally Shen Ping, who had just rushed to the 21st place on the Honor List. They both knew that Shen Ping had comprehended the whip tail symbol of the great beast form, so they were not surprised that he passed the sixth level of the trial space.

"It will take several years to study the entire beast-shaped rune diagram in the fifth volume. Master Shen used to study and comprehend things very quickly, so I'm afraid he will have trouble adapting. For example, the whip tail rune diagram in the fourth volume almost affected his Tao heart. You must pay special attention to this, Yu Cang. If it's inconvenient for you, you can let my disciple Qing Ling communicate with Master Shen to keep abreast of his state of mind."

The Danhai Palace Master warned seriously.

After all, Shen Ping is related to the future of Shanhuo and Danhai Palaces, so any problem he has is not a trivial matter.

Yu Zhenjun nodded repeatedly, "Palace Master, don't worry. In addition to Qingling, I will also communicate with the Mountain Fire Palace in a timely manner."

"As long as you understand."

"If it is the core of a skill that has been cultivated for thousands of years, you and I don't have to worry too much, but Master Shen Fu has been practicing for too short a time. His bone age is only sixty-two years old. To you and me, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a child at this age."

The Danhai Palace Master stroked his beard and shook his head: "Without experience, it is easy to accumulate thoughts. Once you go astray, it will be too late to regret."

Yu Zhenjun remained silent. He knew clearly that the reason why the hall master had such emotion was because of a true disciple he received a hundred years ago. At that time, that true disciple who had excellent talent in alchemy had his foundation destroyed by his inner demon obsession and eventually died.

"The puppetry instructor arranged by the Moon Spirit Main Hall..."

Before the Danhai Palace Master could finish his words, he felt his and Yu Zhenjun's communication jade tokens vibrate at the same time.

The two looked at each other.

Then the spiritual consciousness quickly penetrated the jade token.

This sweep.

There was a look of astonishment in their pupils.

But then.

The jade token kept vibrating.

The elders and hall masters of each hall, even the elders at the main hall level of Yue Ling, the Yue Ling hall master and other powerful monks at the main hall level, all sent messages over.

There was only one question: "Has Master Shen Fu understood the fifth volume of the Fu Beast Sutra on the beast forms?"

The Danhai Palace Master came back to his senses from his shock, took a deep breath, stared at Master Yu and said word by word: "Yu, Yu Cang, if, if I remember correctly, you, you started teaching the fifth volume of the scripture five days ago, right?!"

Without waiting for Yu Zhenjun to respond.

He began to laugh, and his laughter grew louder and louder, until the entire long corridor was filled with laughter. In this laughter, a voice kept echoing: "Five days, just five days to comprehend the fifth volume of the strange beast symbol and the great beast form. What a monstrous monster this is!!"

…

At the same time.

The news that Shen Ping ranked fourth on the Honor List spread like a hurricane in all the halls of the Zhenbao Building headquarters.

Although many members praised Master Shen's talent in talismans, it was still incredible that he had made it to the top five in such a short time.

…

A branch hall under the Moon Spirit Main Hall floating palace.

Inside the palace hall.

The Lord of Shanhuo Palace, Elder Huohan, and Li Yin were waiting respectfully. Today was the day when the Main Palace arranged to teach Shen Ping puppetry skills. This instructor was a direct disciple of the Main Palace elders, who had just broken through the Spirit Transformation stage and came out of seclusion. Because he was proficient in puppetry, the Main Palace specially sent him to Danhai Palace to teach.

"Brother, we have been waiting here for several hours. According to etiquette, the instructor should have come out long ago, but he has not appeared yet. I am afraid that this attitude is inappropriate!"

"Now Master Shen Fu has ranked 21st on the Honor List, and he is very ambitious. However, puppetry is different from the art of Fu. If we assign such a teacher, if there is any problem during the training, I am afraid there will be resentment between them."

"This matter must be handled with extreme caution."

Elder Huohan transmitted the message.

The Mountain Fire Palace Master actually had some complaints in his heart. Although the other party was a direct disciple of the elders of the main palace, he, as the master of a palace, had to come out to greet him personally. No matter how big the matter was, he had to come out to see him first. And even if there was something important that delayed him, he should at least send someone to explain.

"What Junior Brother said does make sense."

"But I haven't seen the instructor yet. If I raise an objection now, the main hall will not agree. Let's wait and see. If it is really inappropriate, I will personally meet with the Moon Spirit Hall Master and implore him to change the instructor..."

The two had just finished their conversation via telepathy.

Li Yin, who was guarding outside the hall, suddenly walked into the hall quickly and came to the side of the two masters of the Mountain Fire Hall.

See here.

Elder Huo Han frowned and scolded: "What are you doing here? Don't break the rules!"

But Li Yin didn't care about being rude. He suppressed his excitement and whispered: "Master, Palace Master, just now there was a message from the main hall of the palace, Shen, Master Shen Fu, he, he..."

"You are so hesitant in your speech, it's a mess!"

Elder Huohan frowned even more tightly.

The Mountain Fire Hall Master waved his hand, "Li Yin, go on, what happened to Master Shen Fu?"

"Master Shen Fu has reached fourth place on the Honor List!"

The voice fell.

The Mountain Fire Palace Master and Elder Huohan were both stunned.

Then they all stared at Li Yin, "You, what did you just say?"

Li Yin repeated excitedly: "Master, Palace Master, I said, Master Shen Fu is ranked fourth on the Honor List!!"

“Fourth place???”

The usually calm and steady Lord of the Mountain Fire Palace asked anxiously, and the voice of surprise shook the whole palace.

The guards on both sides of the main hall entrance all looked sideways.

"This, how is this possible!?"

"If you want to be ranked fourth, you need to pass the seventh level of the trial assessment!!"

Elder Huohan’s face was filled with disbelief.

And just at this moment.

The two people's communication jade cards all vibrated.

However, before their spiritual sense could penetrate and check, a phantom condensed above the throne in the hall. As soon as the phantom appeared, the entire space began to twist and vibrate.

"Greetings to the Lord of the Main Hall!"

There was no time to check the summons.

The Mountain Fire Palace Master and the other three hurriedly saluted respectfully.

The shadow of the Moon Spirit Hall Master flickered and he stood in front of the Mountain Fire Hall Master. He asked calmly, "Mountain Fire, when did Shen Ping start practicing the fifth volume of the Beast Form?"

"Five days ago."

"Master Yu has requested the fifth volume, and he will teach at the beginning of the hour of Wei."

The Mountain Fire Palace Master bowed in response.

But there was already a storm in his heart.

Five days.

Could it be that Master Shen Fu had comprehended the Great Beast Form of the Fifth Volume in just five days? !

A moment of surprise and shock.

The Mountain Fire Palace Master suddenly heard laughter.

He raised his eyes subconsciously.

The Moon Spirit Palace Master in front of him had already sat on the throne again, and bursts of laughter continued to ring out from the throne: "Wu Ri, what an unexpected little fellow, his talent is so terrifying that even I am amazed!"
