Chapter 243: Top of the Honor List
A gentle voice sounded in the hall.
The twelve throne phantoms were all stunned for a moment, but soon they returned to normal. Although the Supreme Throne's intervention in the trial assessment destroyed the fairness of the trial, Shen Ping's previous performance was incredible. Not only did he not fail in the extreme state, but he broke through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. That was fine, but what made these main hall-level powerhouses even more puzzled was that he actually relied on the middle stage of the Nascent Soul to suppress the five strange beast talismans! Therefore.
They also wanted to see what Shen Ping's limit was! The ninth level of the trial.
Boom! The huge mountain arm continued to smash onto the defensive array, but the surface light dimmed very slowly.
However, Shen Ping, who was concentrating on making talismans, did not notice this.
As time goes on.
Four beast talisman images were already floating around him, but compared to the eighth level, this time his arms did not tremble at all. Although the natal divine talisman between his eyebrows kept flashing, with the assistance of his natal divine puppet, the power of the beast talisman images was greatly suppressed.
Take a break.
He continued to work on it.
When the fifth one was floating in front of his eyes, Shen Ping showed a relaxed smile. He raised his eyes and was about to activate the magical power of talismans. He noticed that the light of the defensive talisman array was still bright.
"What's going on?"
His spiritual sense was busy penetrating the talisman formation to observe and feel it carefully.
Soon, he estimated that according to the speed at which the spiritual light was fading, it could still last for another six hours! He came to this conclusion.
Shen Ping's expression flashed with surprise.
The sudden increase in the duration of the defensive array had never happened in all his previous trials.
But I thought about it a little.
He looked up into the sky as if he had realized something.
This situation was clearly the result of human intervention, and the only people in the entire Zhenbao Building who could interfere with the jade card core space trial were definitely the top brass at the headquarters.
"The ninth floor...I'm afraid it has attracted the attention of the main hall level."
Think of this.
Shen Ping turned his gaze back again. Although he guessed that the top executives at the headquarters were watching him, he did not feel any pressure. If such a situation had occurred during the trial, he would definitely be nervous and uneasy. After all, he had many secrets. If they were seen through, the consequences would be disastrous. But it was different now. He had gone through the trial many times without any problem, which meant that except for his magical powers of talismans, nothing else had been exposed.
Of course, it is also possible that the powerful monks at the headquarters do not care about his secret.
Suppress your emotions.
He then proceeded to make the talisman.
Since the defensive talisman formation still has six hours left, he also wants to test how many strange beast talismans he can suppress with the help of his natal divine puppet and his natal divine talisman.
Tsk tsk.
The talisman pen kept sketching.
The sixth... the eighth...
Almost every two hours, he could produce five talisman beast drawings. Later, as he drew more and more times, Shen Ping became more and more proficient in it.
In the blink of an eye, another five hours passed.
There were already seventeen images of strange beasts floating around him.
The combined power emanating from these symbols alone is enough to cause the surrounding space to slightly distort.
And Shen Ping once again felt his limit.
Even with the dual suppression of the divine puppet and the divine talisman in the sea of consciousness, it was difficult to contain the power of the talisman. And this time was different from the previous eighth level. The superimposed pressure seemed to have reached a critical point.
But he still gritted his teeth and held on.
A series of derived spiritual pattern combinations appeared on the talisman paper.
It's just that 20% of it hasn't been outlined yet.
His palms, which had always been as steady as a mountain, began to tremble slightly.
No matter how hard Shen Ping tried to control himself, he could not keep his palm steady.
Sizzle.
Soon the next spiritual pattern failed to be drawn.
The entire talisman beast picture burst into flames.
See here.
Shen Ping looked helpless. For a talisman master, the most important thing was the control over the talisman pen. Now even his palm was affected, so he would fail if he continued.
"Seventeen... This is my limit now."
Shake your head.
He no longer felt resentful.
Anyway.
Being able to hold on to the ninth floor was far beyond his previous expectations.
Moreover, currently, only the top of the entire Zhenbao Building Honor List is on the ninth floor.
"My magical power of talismans has already reached the level of a thousand talismans. Unfortunately, even when making talismans with strange beast patterns, it is difficult to suppress so many talismans."
When thoughts come to mind.
Shen Ping looked at the huge mountain monsters outside the defensive talisman formation. The seventeen beast-shaped talismans of the fifth volume in their final form that were suspended around him slowly rotated.
Under the strong constraints of the talisman magic power on the virtual panel, these extremely powerful beast images gathered behind his head according to a magical structure and quickly formed a circular halo.
The main hall.
See this scene.
No matter whether it was the highest throne or the twelve main hall thrones, their eyes were all fixed on the circular halo that began to burn and emit a halo, as if they wanted to see through the operating principle of the circular halo. However, even with their powerful cultivation and immense magic power, they could only vaguely sense this kind of magical power, which was an incomprehensible talisman array.
The sea of talismanic light.
As the pictures of talismans and beasts burned one by one.
The Moon Spirit Palace Master couldn't help but murmur.
The other throne phantoms seemed to be repeating these four words in their hearts.
Boom!!! In an instant.
The ninth floor space was instantly flooded by a dazzling beam of light that looked like the sun collapsing. The light extended through the white jade tower to dozens of meters away, making the hall as bright as day.
“It’s really beautiful and gorgeous.”
The Supreme Throne's face, which combined a thousand different looks into one, revealed an enchanting smile, "The consciousness of a mid-stage Nascent Soul can create and suppress seventeen strange beast talismans, and can also fuse them into a perfect talisman formation structure. To be able to burst out with such power is truly an evil genius that has not been seen in the five continents and four seas for hundreds of thousands of years."
"It is a blessing that such a genius was born in all corners of the world."
Speaking in a gentle voice.
The white jade tower emitted bursts of soft light, which quickly covered the ninth floor that had been completely flattened by the light column.
And looking at Shen Ping who began to rest.
The Supreme Throne raised his eyes slightly, looked around at the main hall-level phantoms, and said with a faint smile: "Everyone, I want to accept him as a registered disciple. Yue Ling will inform him of this matter and ask him to come to the main hall... When he reaches the top three in glory with his puppet skills, he can inherit the core scripture of my True Treasure Building - the Beast Scripture!"
The words fell.
The shadow of the supreme throne gradually faded.
The twelve main hall thrones around the hall had different expressions. Although the registered disciples were not taught personally, the chief hall master had never accepted a disciple before, so although it seemed like he was just registered in name, in fact, he had determined in his heart that Shen Ping was the inheritor of the Beast Sutra.
Not to mention that this time the chief hall master didn't even discuss it with them, it was obvious that the matter had already been settled.
Palace Master Chen Yao frowned and concentrated.
The Star Spirit Palace Master shook his head slightly.
The other main hall-level phantoms who had been personally taught by the top ten members of Glory also sighed slightly.
They knew that the only remaining hope of inheritance for their disciples completely disappeared at this moment.
But for this.
These hall masters did not have any dissatisfaction.
After all, a talisman genius like Shen Ping is destined to have his brilliance concealed.
…
There is a long pavilion on the hillside of the floating sacred peak.
The expressions of Xu Daoyou and other top ten members of the Honor List changed from initial emotion to helplessness, and finally to the current dullness.
They could barely describe Master Shen Fu as a monster.
But honor to be at the top!
It was completely beyond their understanding.
Even though Master Shen Fu spent eight hours on the ninth floor, he was at the top of the honor list, representing the most outstanding and dazzling talent among all the skill cores of the Zhenbao Building headquarters.
If Shen Ping was a Nascent Soul cultivator, they would at most be envious and sigh in admiration, secretly wanting to catch up with him, but the other party was merely a cultivator who had completed the Foundation Establishment stage, and he had only been practicing for less than a hundred years. When they thought of this fact, no matter how strong their minds were, they couldn't help but feel devastated and felt that their thousand years of practice had been wasted.
"It's so hopeless to compete with such a genius!"
For a long while.
A long sigh from Fellow Daoist Xu was heard in the pavilion.
Immediately, the other monks nodded in agreement.
…
Living in the courtyard.
After finishing her conversation with the sect master, Saint Yuelian was arranging the subsequent training matters for Elder Qu and other disciples of the Yuelian Holy Sect. Now that the situation in Zhongshengzhou is becoming increasingly chaotic, the sect has begun to prepare for a retreat, and they who are at the headquarters of Zhenbao Tower are undoubtedly the safest.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
But if you want to practice here for a long time, you have to find a place for shelter.
"Elder Qu."
"Although other exchange disciples can temporarily stay in the guest rooms of each hall, this is not a long-term solution. Next, you need to communicate more with the other leading elders and let them use their methods to find out whether they can arrange us all in one hall."
Qu Wan bowed and said, "Yes, Saint."
Just as Saint Yuelian was about to continue giving instructions, the jade token on her sleeve vibrated.
She used her spiritual sense to penetrate and check.
I immediately learned that Shen Ping had topped the Honor List.
"It seems that whether we can stay safely in Zhenbao Tower depends on Master Shen Fu!"
After Saint Yue Lian told Qu Wan the news, she couldn't help but sigh.
Qu Wan was shocked and noticed the complicated expression on the Saint's face. She couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Why is the Saint sighing? This should be a happy event for us."
Saint Yue Lian hesitated but still expressed her hesitation, "To be honest with Elder Qu, Master Shen Fu's concentration is really different from that of ordinary people. I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to confuse him in a short time with the method of "Heavenly Core White Lotus". So if I want to truly control him, I must... must have sex with him."
Hearing this.
Qu Wan frowned slightly, "The essence of the saint girl is very important for practicing the true canon of our sect. You must not have sex with men. If you really have to, you can replace other disciples at the critical moment. If that doesn't work, I will do it."
Saint Yue Lian shook her head helplessly, "It's not that simple. If it were in a sect, there would be a myriad of ways to deal with it, but this is the Zhenbao Tower, and Shen Ping is not stupid, he has strong willpower, how could he let us fool him."
"As for the cultivation of the True Canon, there is no need to worry too much. I have already cultivated the fifth level of the technique. Even if I lose my Yuan Yin, it will not damage my foundation. At most, it will affect the time of cultivation."
Qu Wan's eyebrows finally relaxed a little. She thought for a moment and said, "Saintess, whether it succeeds or not, we have to give it a try. Saintess, you can invite Master Shen to our place of residence. As long as we set up the magic array in advance, we may succeed."
Saint Yue Lian's expression slightly changed, "It's feasible. I will try to find out what he is saying today."
…
Fire Temple.
Inside the quiet room.
The moment his consciousness returned from the core space of the jade token, Shen Ping slowly opened his eyes.
“I didn’t expect that there would be no defensive array on the tenth level of the trial!”
He smiled wryly.
The key to being able to reach the tenth floor and display the power of talismans is the defensive talisman formation. Without this protection, he might not be able to pass through, let alone the tenth floor, even the dark rocky ground of the first floor with rugged rocks.
But soon he fell into deep thought.
The tenth level of the Zhenbao Tower trial assessment seems to be quite meaningful. Since there is no talisman array defense, it is very likely that the test is no longer just the control of the Talisman Beast Sutra, but also the various means that the talisman master can use when facing real danger.
Shen Ping couldn't help but examine himself.
If you really encounter this situation, how can you solve the dilemma with the existing means?
"Defensive magic, speed magic... magic weapon, talisman, formation plate, puppet..."
I thought over all the options in my mind.
He smiled confidently.
If he were to encounter the mountain monster again in Zeguo, he believed that he would not need to rely on Master Pei and Qiu Ying, and could escape on his own.
Thinking of Pei Huoyu.
His heart suddenly became lively.
The original goal of this trial ranking was to be in the top three in glory, but the result was unexpectedly topping the list, which was truly a pleasant surprise.
And this joy.
He really wanted to share it with his wives, concubines and fellow Taoist friends.
Get up and walk out of the quiet room.
Shen Ping soon discovered that his wives and concubines were not in the Fire Spirit Hall. After a little thought, he guessed that they must have gone to the hall. He did not send any messages, but returned to the quiet room to meditate and practice.
This time, I spent quite a bit of time in the trial space.
In total, he had not practiced for the entire day, so he had to make up for it by double the effort.
boom.
As he practiced the "Qian Yuan Sutra" technique, the abundant seventh-grade middle-quality spiritual energy in the quiet room gathered into spiritual mist in the blink of an eye, and poured into it madly from the acupuncture points all over his body, transforming into streams of pure magic power, which filled his dantian and meridians, compressing the already abundant magic power.
The speed at which the earth-level spiritual roots absorb and transform is truly astonishing.
Even the blood of strange beasts is out of reach.
It would take at least a year and a half for an ordinary cultivator who has completed the foundation building to hone his magic power and adjust his spirit before forming the elixir.
Shen Ping's own magic power is dozens of times that of other foundation-building cultivators, and his spiritual consciousness has transformed and improved to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. If he were to form a pill now, the chance of success would be very high, but the final pill pattern would inevitably be unsatisfactory.
If you don’t have the resources, it would be best to form the elixir as soon as possible.
But since we have the strong support of Zhenbao Tower, we naturally have to pursue better Danwen.
Nearing the hour of Wei.
He just finished his practice.
As soon as I walked out of the quiet room, I saw wives, concubines and Taoist companions of different sizes, all with different looks, waiting outside.
"Congratulations to my husband for reaching the top of the Glory List!"
Different voices such as soft, cute, charming, cool, sweet, etc. all rang in Shen Ping's ears.
He was stunned at first, then looked at the excitement on the faces of his wives and concubines.
Suddenly, the suppressed joy in my heart burst out completely.
No explanation.
He strode out directly, holding his wife and concubine in one hand, and walked quickly towards the master bedroom.
The rest of the Taoist companions followed closely behind.
Not long.
Enthusiastic celebrations rang out one after another.
…
A side hall of Danhai Palace.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the entrance of the palace, casting the shadow of the long, slanted corridor.
The Danhai Palace Master, the Shanhuo Palace Master, Elder Huohan, Yu Zhenjun and a group of Danhai Palace elders and other cultivators looked at the motionless figure in front of them and looked at each other.
Lord Yueling of the Moon Palace is here in person.
Obviously there was something to inform Shen Ping.
But they didn't expect that Shen Ping, who had just topped the list today, would not come to the side hall to practice without even notifying them.
However, the Lord of the Main Hall specifically ordered not to send any message to him.
They could only follow and wait patiently.
As soon as the You hour arrives.
The Moon Spirit Master couldn't help but laugh, "It seems that this little guy really won't come today. It's really exciting to be on the top of the list. Well, I'll come again tomorrow."
