Eternal Life Begins with Taking a Wife

Chapter 183 - 183: You Have to Seize It Well



Editor: Henyee Translations

Time seemed to have stopped. Under the pillar of light, the broad figure stood like a mountain. The large number of strange swamp demon beasts that had broken through the defensive spiritual light surged in all directions. More than a thousand of them seemed to cover the sky.

However, Shen Ping’s exhausted eyes were calm. How powerful was the fusion and burning of the 20 talisman beast diagrams? He wasn’t sure. But he had done everything he could.

No one was willing to be mediocre. Although he was afraid of death, deep in his heart… it was the same.

Boom!!

The moment the first swamp demon beast touched the pillar of light, it only struggled for a moment before it was completely annihilated. Then, a second, a third… It was not until more than a thousand of them were completely annihilated that the dazzling pillar of light gradually dissipated.

“Congratulations to the new core, Shen Ping, for passing the third level of the trial space. Please rest for a moment and head to the next level.”

Hearing this familiar gentle voice, Shen Ping relaxed and collapsed.

In the towering palace, the dozens of phantoms on the thrones looked at the white jade tower, their eyes filled with ripples. No one knew better than them the power of the talisman beast diagram.

Although the five volumes of beast form could only unleash a portion of power of strange beasts, even this portion was extremely powerful. It was definitely not something that a Foundation Establishment and Golden Core could completely control. Generally speaking, it was already the limit for a Daoist in the Pseudo Nascent Soul Realm to control ten talisman beast diagrams of the first volume at the same time.

However, they saw something.

A new core member actually controlled 20 talisman beast diagrams and even fused the power of these talisman beast diagrams. If it was a Nascent Soul or a Divine Transformation cultivator who did this, they would not be too surprised. Yet this little fellow in front of them was only a Foundation Establishment Cultivator!

Most importantly, it had only been less than three years since this little fellow came into contact with the Talisman Scripture after passing the headquarters’ assessment.

Most of the skill geniuses were already outstanding enough to be able to master the first volume after three years of comprehending and cultivating various Beast Scriptures. To master the second volume was a genius, and to master the third volume was a demon.

As a main hall expert of the True Treasure Pavilion, they had seen even more monstrous skill geniuses over the years. There were even monsters who had completely comprehended the entire five volumes of the beast form in just a few decades.

Even for such a genius, when he first came into contact with the Beast Scripture, no one had been able to superimpose and fuse the Talisman Beast Diagram to erupt with power.

This involved the profound Dao of Talisman Formations. It was precisely because they knew how difficult it was that experts like them who had lived for a long time would cause waves. No one interacted with others anymore. Instead, they continued to look at the white jade tower.

On the fourth floor, it was also a grassland swamp environment.

The challengers were still facing swamp beasts, but the number had increased to 2,000, and the strength of each beast had increased by several times. However, the talisman arrays that defended against spiritual light had not increased, so the light of the talisman arrays could last for at most two hours.

In such a short time, with this little guy’s previous speed of making talismans, it was already the limit to make seven. And it was impossible to pass this level with the fusion of the seven talisman beast diagrams.

Boom!

The dazzling pillar of light erupted on the fourth level again. However, he only killed more than a hundred of them. Eventually, the defensive spiritual light collapsed. A large number of swamp beasts drowned Shen Ping.

Seeing this scene, the throne phantoms in the majestic hall communicated again.

“It’s a pity that the time is too short! If he can fuse with 20 talisman beast diagrams and unleash their power, it won’t be difficult to kill 300 swamp beasts.”

“The difficulty of every level in the trial space is soaring. If he wants to pass the fourth level, he has to comprehend the entire five volumes of the beast form. This little fellow can rely on talisman formations to fuse with the talisman beast diagram. It’s really commendable to reach this level!”

“Do you think this little guy can pass this level if he can control more talisman beast diagrams?” Amidst the discussion, a throne phantom suddenly smiled and said.

The other throne phantoms immediately revealed a trace of interest and spoke one after another.

“Let’s not talk about whether he can control it or not. Just relying on the fusion power of the first volume of the Talisman Beast Scroll to pass, he has to fuse more than 50.”

“The power of the Talisman Beast Diagram is very strong to begin with. It’s very difficult to judge the state of stacking. From this little fellow’s five fusions, seven fusions, and the power of twenty fusions, he indeed needs at least 50!”

“Fifty talisman beast diagrams… It’s very difficult even for Nascent Soul Divine Sense. However, at the Divine Transformation realm of the soul metamorphosis stage, it can be done.”

Just as these throne phantoms were communicating,

A gentle voice that had never moved suddenly sounded from the highest throne. “Everyone, it’s rare for such a Talisman Dao genius to appear in our True Treasure Pavilion in the past. I hope you don’t leak this matter. If the other top sects and factions of the Zhongsheng Continent find out, I’m afraid there will be waves.”

The other throne phantoms replied respectfully, “Yes.”

As the trial assessment continued, the rankings of the members on the Glory Ranking and the Hidden Dragon Ranking were closer to stable, and there were rarely any major changes. After all, most of the cores had already been eliminated. Those who could continue to stay in the trial space to take the test were all cores who had passed the third level.

As for the Hidden Dragon Rankings, they were even more stable without any changes. But even so, many members of the Mountain Fire Hall, including Li Yin, were still looking at the floating rankings.

“This Talisman Master Shen is too powerful. Even now, he’s still in second place and hasn’t fallen!”

“I don’t know how he did it. As far as I know, the person ranked fourth on the Hidden Dragon Rankings was just a little bit away from passing the third level of the trial test. Doesn’t this mean that this Talisman Master Shen has already passed the third level?!”

“He must have passed. Otherwise, it’s impossible for him to maintain second place!”

“He’s a Talisman Master. If he wants to pass the third level, he should have to master the fourth volume of the Talisman Beast Scripture!”

“Right, Fellow Daoist Li, I remember that you were in charge of Talisman Master Shen’s assessment, right? You know his situation the best. Quickly tell us.”

Many members looked at Li Yin.

Li Yin, who was wearing a purple robe, smiled calmly. Just as he was about to say a few words, he suddenly saw from the corner of his eye that the ranking of the huge Hidden Dragon Ranking had changed slightly. He focused and took a look. His gaze was instantly stunned.

The other members noticed Li Yin’s expression and could not help but look away. At this moment, the top of the Hidden Dragon Rankings had already changed its name.

The new core member, Shen Ping.

Linhai Immortal City.

Yongyang Market.

In a small courtyard.

Pei Huoyu stood on the spot and waited. Her fluctuating emotions had long calmed down. After all, with Shen Ping’s second place on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, even if he fell, it was very likely that he would stay in the top ten. It was very difficult for those core disciples who were ranked before him to improve in half a year, but Shen Ping could improve.

Therefore, in the Hidden Dragon Rankings half a year later, not to mention reaching the top three, even stabilizing the top ten would allow one to obtain generous restriction-level rewards.

As long as the starting point stabilized, then continuously obtaining restricted-level resources as rewards was no longer an extravagant hope. With these resources, he might be able to enter the top three of the rankings before the headquarters review and evaluation.

If he could really reach it, forget about the B-rank core, he had a chance of successfully breaking through the A-rank core.

Buzz.

Her identity jade token vibrated again.

“Looks like there’s a final outcome.” Pei Huoyu took out the jade token and a trace of nervousness flashed across her face. As her divine sense permeated, Li Yin’s excited voice sounded.

“Junior Sister, Talisman Master Shen has already risen to the top of the Hidden Dragon Rankings!

“He has only been in contact with the Talisman Beast Scripture for less than three years. Although his comprehension of the Talisman Beast Scripture is not very fast, the trial assessment space is very important. As long as he can maintain it, he will definitely become a Class A core in the future!”

Pei Huoyu shuddered. Her calm mind stirred again, and this time, it was even more turbulent. “Senior Brother, h-how is this possible? That’s the top of the Hidden Dragon Ranking!” Her tone was filled with disbelief.

The Hidden Dragon Rankings targeted all the core members of the five batches in a hundred years. This included a Class A core! Those who could enter Class A were all monstrous geniuses in terms of skills. Their speed of comprehending the Beast Scripture was so fast that one could only look at them.

Although the beast scripture was not the only test this time, the A-Rank core geniuses had many resources to assist them. The methods they had were unimaginable to other cultivators.

Pei Huoyu had high hopes for Shen Ping, but she had never thought that Shen Ping would successfully climb to the top of the rankings in the first assessment.

“Junior Sister, it’s difficult for me to believe it, but this is the truth!” Speaking of this, Li Yin suddenly asked in a low voice, “Junior Sister, how’s your relationship with Talisman Master Shen?”

Pei Huoyu suppressed the waves in her heart and replied, “Senior Brother, what do you mean?”

“Things are different now. His first trial has reached this level, and he’s too dazzling. Now, not only our Mountain Fire Hall, but the other halls also want to know about Talisman Master Shen’s situation. I can’t withstand it at all with my strength and status.”

Li Yin said solemnly, “So, Junior Sister, if your relationship with him is not good, once he wants to change his Dao Protector, then you… Fortunately, Talisman Master Shen’s progress in comprehending the Beast Scripture is not monstrous. Otherwise, it would be useless even if you asked Master to appear.”

Pei Huoyu fell silent. She had not thought about this at all before, but after her senior brother said that, she realized the seriousness of the matter. “Senior Brother, you’ve always known my personality. I won’t do anything against…”

Before she could finish speaking, Pei Huoyu’s expression changed as she returned to the quiet room.

Boom!

Boundless pressure burst out from the mountain fire mark on her shoulder armor. Immediately after, a ball of flames burned. It floated in the quiet room and quickly condensed into a face.

Pei Huoyu’s valiant face was filled with respect. “Greetings, Master!”

The flames danced. His face looked blurry, but the pressure became stronger. “Huoyu, how’s the progress of the Talisman Master you’re protecting?”

Listening to the voice, Pei Huoyu explained briefly without hiding anything.

The flame face pondered and said, “In that case, he used other methods to pass the third level of the trial. No matter what method he used, as long as he can pass, it proves that he’s extraordinary. Huoyu, since you’re his guardian, you have to grasp it well in the future. If you need anything, you can send a message to your senior brother..”
