Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was five in the evening.
On the cloud boat that returned to the Linhai Immortal City, Shen Ping looked at the afterglow of the setting sun through the clouds in the sky, his emotions flying.
All along, although he had been cultivating and comprehending the Talisman Scripture, he had only treated it as a supplentary thod to increase his status and obtain restricted resources of the True Treasure Pavilion. He did not really care about the Talisman Scripture and thought that it was just a deep extension of the talisman.
However, the power of the Talisman Beast Scripture today shocked him greatly.
That destructive power completely exceeded his understanding of talismans. And most importantly, the power of Talisman Beast Scripture he unleashed through these two thods were only a portion.
“The foundation of the True Treasure Pavilion… is unfathomable!” Shen Ping sighed.
At first, his impression of the True Treasure Pavilion was that it was a large-scale business alliance faction in the cultivation world. Such a faction mainly relied on a huge amount of resources to recruit and rope in all kinds of powerful cultivators. It would obtain their protection and steadily continue to develop.
However, after the headquarters’ assessnt, he changed his opinion and felt that the True Treasure Pavilion was indeed a large faction that spanned the five continents and four seas. But it was at this mont that the True Treasure Pavilion beca more and more mysterious and powerful in his heart.
After all, the True Treasure Pavilion had stood in the five continents and four seas for countless years. During this period of ti, they had nurtured many skill geniuses. Even if any of these geniuses could completely comprehend and master the Talisman Beast Scripture, they could rely on its power to protect the True Treasure Pavilion.
The Talisman Beast Scripture was only one of many technique scrolls.
“If the True Treasure Pavilion is like this, then what about Spring Garden, which is on par with it? What do they rely on?” Shen Ping could not help but think of Spring Garden and Matchmaker Ceng.
After the situation in the Wei Kingdom beca chaotic, Spring Garden did not seem to have retreated.
Matchmaker Ceng did not co to the Linhai Immortal City either. Initially, he did not take it to heart. However, after seeing the terrifying foundation of the True Treasure Pavilion, Spring Garden beca even more mysterious in his eyes.
“Although the Talisman Scripture is powerful, ordinary talismans are equally important. Fellow Daoist Shen, you have to rember this.” Pei Huoyu’s voice interrupted Shen Ping’s thoughts.
He raised his eyes and cupped his hands. “I will definitely rember Senior Pei’s reminder.”
Back at Yongyang Market, just as he reached the entrance of the single courtyard, Pei Huoyu continued, “Recently, the way the headquarters nurtured core mbers has changed. Originally, they had to wait for the review and evaluation before the new core mbers could co into contact with more resources, but this ti, it was brought forward. In another month, an envoy from the headquarters will arrive and distribute the latest core jade tokens. You have to be ntally prepared.”
Shen Ping was stunned for a mont before he said happily, “Senior Pei, in that case, can I use my contribution points to exchange for various talisman scriptures in advance? In 13 years, do I need to go to the headquarters to review and evaluate?”
Pei Huoyu said patiently, “Of course. The change this ti is aid at all the core mbers. New core mbers like you can obtain the right to exchange in advance, but it’s just a very small part of the change. As for later on, if you want to break through to the B-grade core and obtain better nurturing, you have to go to the headquarters. Not only does the headquarters have better guidance than Perfected Yun Ya, but they also have various resources to assist you in your comprehension and cultivation.”
Shen Ping was enlightened, but he quickly shook his head in disappointnt. He thought that he could break through to the B-rank core in these 13 years, but in the end, he had to go to the headquarters to review and evaluate.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, in the future, when you go to the Yulin Mountain Range, other than practicing special spirit runes, it’s best if you take a certain amount of ti to familiarize yourself with using the talisman beast diagram.
“Today is your first ti using it. When you’re familiar with it in a few days, go to the inner area of the Yulin Mountain Range.”
Hearing Pei Huoyu’s words, Shen Ping figured out the aning behind it. He looked surprised. “Senior Pei, do you want to train my ability to use the talisman beast diagram to fight demon beasts?”
Pei Huoyu nodded. “That’s right. Although 1 don’t know what the changes to the core jade token involve, there should be this assessnt.”
“Sure. Senior Pei can arrange it when the ti cos.” Shen Ping agreed. After witnessing the power of the talisman beast diagram, he wanted to master it as soon as possible. After he could steadily outline it on the talisman paper, he would prepare a thousand pieces and place them in his spirit ring.
At that ti, he would have Shield Spirit Talismans and Level 3 puppets. In addition, there were a thousand talisman beast diagrams and various divine powers. Even if he were to face a mid to late-stage Golden Core expert, he did not have to be afraid.
In the next month, Shen Ping dual cultivated every day, ditated, made talismans, occasionally fiddled with puppets, and then cultivated the Talisman Scripture. In addition, he went to the Yulin Mountain Range every three days. His cultivation life was full and boring.
But he was already used to this kind of life and was willing to endure it. After all, the other Foundation Establishnt Cultivators did not feel much improvent after dozens of days of bitter cultivation. However, Shen Ping was different. He comprehended three tis every day and watched as his various attributes increased.
This feeling of clearly controlling the change in his strength was far from what other cultivators could experience.
It was precisely because of this that he always looked calm and at ease.
Early November.
As the cold wave swept over from the extre north of the Northern Rock Marsh Region, the climate of the Linhai Immortal City suddenly turned cold. The ground of the small courtyard in the morning was covered in a layer of frost. However, be it the spirit beasts raised by Bai Yuying or the spirit fields and dicinal fields that Wang Yun had cultivated, they were not affected.
On the day the envoy from the headquarters arrived, More than a hundred guest elders, deacons, and elders waited quietly in the spacious backyard of the True Treasure Pavilion. Perfected Qiu was among them. Shen Ping sat in the hall and tasted the spiritual tea.
After a while, the air restriction array of the Linhai Immortal City fluctuated. Elder Qi and Elder Peng stood up and walked out of the hall. Shen Ping followed behind.
Whoosh.
In just a few breaths, several auras with extrely powerful pressure appeared in the spacious backyard. The envoy in the lead was wearing a round-necked blue robe with a long sword embroidered on his shoulder that seed to shoot into the sky.
When Pei Huoyu saw this symbol, she imdiately walked forward with a solemn expression and bowed. “I’m Pei Huoyu, the core of the Mountain Fire Hall. Greetings, Lord Sword Envoy.”
Elder Qi and Elder Peng hurriedly bowed. However, they were extrely shocked in their hearts. Even this Perfected Pei of the Mountain Fire Hall addressed him as lord. The emissary in front of them was very likely to be in the late-stage Nascent Soul realm.
What was it that made a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator personally co to the main station of the Northern Rock Marsh Region?
The sword envoy glanced at Pei Huoyu and said with a smile, “I know you.
You’re a Golden Core cultivator from the Mountain Fire Hall who has so strength.”
Pei Huoyu said imdiately, “Thank you for your praise.”
The sword envoy smiled and said calmly, “Other than the core mbers, the rest can wait outside.”
“Yes!

As the sword envoy and Shen Ping entered the hall one after another, the other four Nascent Souls from the headquarters stood on both sides of the door. This ti, the core jade token was of great importance and could not be lost. Therefore, the headquarters specially sent a late-stage Nascent Soul realm expert to escort them. Moreover, the handover had to be carried out under supervision.
Swoosh.
The Sword Envoy raised his palm. The purple jade bead floated in the air.
“This is a special type of communication treasure. It can record and supervise our current words and actions. It can also be sent to the headquarters in a short period of ti. It will be supervised by specialized personnel.” As the sword envoy spoke, he looked at Shen Ping seriously. “I’ll be asking questions, you only need to answer yes or no.”
Shen Ping hurriedly nodded.
“Have you passed the headquarters assessnt of our True Treasure Pavilion and beco a D-rank core mber?”
“Yes!
ii
“Are you affiliated with the Southern Fla Continent, the Fire Toad Cave, the Northern Rock Marsh Region… the main station of the twelve countries, the Wei Kingdom?”
“Yes!”

He replied yes several tis in a row. The sword envoy smiled. “Guest Elder
Shen, please take out the core jade token you obtained at the headquarters.”
Shen Ping imdiately took out the jade token and handed it over. The sword envoy glanced at it and took out a jade token with a special strange beast pattern carved on it. On the other side, there was a word, ‘true’ carved on it. Unlike before, this jade token had a purple mist flowing inside.
“This is the new core jade token. Guest Elder Shen, you have to protect it well. If it’s lost or abandoned, although you can apply again, the process is very troubleso.”
“Yes, Lord Envoy.” He took the new core jade token. As soon as Shen Ping touched it, he felt a very gentle energy transmitting from inside. His heart instantly cald down. It was much stronger than the fragrance of the Mange Spirit Grass supporting powder.
“My mission is complete.” The sword envoy put away the purple jade bead and walked out of the hall without stopping.
Swoosh.
He and the other four envoys left in the blink of an eye, as if they had never appeared. When the oppressive aura in the backyard completely dissipated, Perfected Qiu and the other guest elders heaved a sigh of relief.
Shen Ping exchanged a few pleasantries with Elder Qi and Elder Peng before walking to the room in the backyard. His divine sense could not wait to seep into the new core jade token.
Although Pei Huoyu also wanted to know what changes there were to the new core jade token, she still guarded the door and did not let any cultivators disturb him. Even Perfected Qiu could not.
Boom.
As his divine sense perated, Shen Ping imdiately felt a strange pulling force pulling his mind from the jade token. Before he could react, most of his mind from the Niwan Palace surged into the core jade token.
He ca back to his senses. He was stunned to find himself in a narrow house. He suppressed the panic in his heart. After a mont of silence, Shen Ping quickly withdrew his divine sense and spirit from the core jade token and returned to his body. “There seems to be more space in the jade token..”
