Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
Talismans are the seal of heaven and earth, the medium of spiritual energy.
Dragon as soul, tiger as spirit — only then can one penetrate the profound.
Above, one can draw the power of the stars; below, one can gather the spiritual opportunities of the earth's veins.
At the start, one can secure one's life and livelihood; with deep study, one can reach the peak of the Talisman Dao.
In just a few short sentences at the opening, the domineering nature of the Dragon-Tiger Talisman Scripture is revealed to the fullest.
In the knowledge Xu Zhangqing understood, the most anyone dared mention was content like "drawing on one's own spiritual power, controlling the three-foot gang wind," yet here, right from the start, the scope is pulled to the "heaven and earth" level.
The Dragon-Tiger Talisman Scripture has four volumes in total:
Volume One
Talisman Foundation: Guide Qi into Talisman Chapter
Volume Two
Dragon-Tiger First Appearance: Division Form Qi Control Chapter
Volume Three
Talisman Dao Penetrates the Profound: Actual Combat and Secret Transmission Chapter
Volume Four
Transmission and Annotations
Although Xu Zhangqing has indeed reached the peak of the entire Tianyuan Realm in terms of runic technique, almost no one can match shoulders with him.
However, in terms of the diversity of spirit talismans, his experience is actually not that great.
The books Old Bai gave were only enough for entry; the previously bought "Spirit Talisman Record" did record high and low spirit talismans, but most only drew the talisman patterns without explaining the core principle of "guiding spirit to penetrate the profound," so the spirit talismans he can truly proficiently draw and reach a masterful level with are actually not many.
Therefore, this complete version of the Dragon-Tiger Talisman Scripture comes at just the right time.
The only thing to note is that this was originally the Dragon-Tiger Immortal Sect's inheritance; no matter when, the main body must never easily use it, to prevent them from recognizing it.
The best method is still to let the avatar use it.
It can both serve as practice and muddy the waters; even if someone perceives traces, they will only go investigate the avatar and not implicate the main body.
Xu Zhangqing held the jade tablet, his fingertip rubbing the patterns on it, and couldn't help but ponder: "Where did the Wan Family get this Dragon-Tiger Immortal Sect's core inheritance from?"
The Dragon-Tiger Immortal Sect's inheritance is no small matter; it is one of the Three Talisman Scriptures.
Of course, a prefix must be added here.
One of the Three Talisman Scriptures from ten thousand years ago.
After these ten thousand years of development, now whether cultivation methods, spells, talisman dao, or other fields, they have long since discarded the old and brought forth the new.
However, the Dragon-Tiger Talisman Scripture is different; it belongs to the talisman dao origin-level inheritance; even after ten thousand years, its core principle of using dragon and tiger to guide heaven and earth spiritual energy remains the foundation of many high-rank talisman arts today.
Therefore, no matter how exquisite current spirit talismans are, they have not completely detached from this origin logic.
……
……
Just like that, after several days passed, Xu Zhangqing and the others gradually moved away from the "No-Management Area," and the distance to the Central Region border was already not far.
Benefiting from the Wan Family's two giant flying ships' safety and stability, therefore these few days everyone encountered no problems at all, passing the time quite leisurely.
Xu Zhangqing stayed in the ship's cabin the whole time, currently drawing one of the three entry talismans in the Dragon-Tiger Talisman Scripture, the "Green Qiu Guide Qi Talisman."
However, just as his fingertip touched the talisman paper, Wan Niang's familiar voice came from beside his ear: "Xu Dao Friend, please come to the deck for a trip; there is something to say."
Xu Zhangqing heard this and raised an eyebrow, then put away the talisman paper and walked out in quick steps.
When he arrived on the deck, he discovered everyone had already arrived.
Even Zhu Rong had appeared, teasing the Fire Crow on one side while looking at the scenery outside on the other.
Xu Zhangqing asked Wan Niang: "What exactly happened?"
Wan Niang's gaze swept over the crowd; seeing everyone revealing curious eyes, only then did she take out a scroll painting and toss it into the air, letting it slowly unfold.
Xu Zhangqing and the others looked over and discovered it was a map.
Moreover, within it there were two green light spots moving at an extremely stable speed.
Xu Zhangqing appeared thoughtful: "These two green dots are the Wan Family's two treasure ships?"
Wan Niang nodded slightly: "Correct, it is precisely us."
Hu Bugui couldn't suppress his inner curiosity and asked doubtfully: "Then why did you call us over? What exactly is it for?"
Wan Niang pointed behind the two green dots, and everyone immediately looked over.
At first there was nothing; after about ten breaths' time, the picture suddenly twisted for a moment, the speed fast like a dazzling illusion.
And the appearance time was extremely brief; if one did not carefully monitor, it would be really hard to perceive.
"What is this?"
"A monster?"
"Could it be a secret realm?"
Seeing this scene, everyone was extremely surprised, guessing one after another.
However, Wan Niang shook her head: "Not a monster, not a secret realm, but a certain cultivator's spiritual power wave fluctuation."
On the surface, this is just a scroll painting.
In reality, this is a complete map of the "No-Management Area."
Moreover, not only that, both ships have the function of sensing the outside world, and can perceive any living creature that has appeared nearby.
Whether human cultivators, demons, or even suddenly appearing secret realms, as long as there is the slightest fluctuation, it can be keenly captured, thereby alerting the Wan Family's people.
Xu Zhangqing waved his hand: "Stop speaking in riddles with us, just say it directly."
Wan Niang said with a slightly serious expression: "Actually, from the moment you boarded the ship, this fluctuation has already existed."
At first I thought it was a passing loose cultivator, so I didn't take it to heart.
Until these past two days, as we approached the Central Region, the other party still hadn't left, only then did I confirm they were following us."
Xu Zhangqing speculated: "Could it be someone from the Longhu Immortal Sect?"
Upon mentioning the "Longhu Immortal Sect," everyone present fell silent.
On the surface, the only ones who can duel Zhao Lie are Zhu Rong and Su Jinli.
Although Yu Shi has four spirit roots and his realm is not low either, his attack methods sometimes even affect his own people.
At this moment, Zhu Rong spoke: "It's not someone from the Longhu Immortal Sect; they have no need to sneak around behind us, if they really wanted to do something, they would have acted long ago."
Hu Bugui and Zhao Ziyue exchanged a glance, saying doubtfully: "If it's not someone from the Longhu Immortal Sect, then who is following us?"
Wan Niang said seriously: "I have already sent a Metal Spirit Root cultivator to investigate, but he went and never returned."
Spirit Rong Night asked: "What realm?"
Wan Niang blurted out: "Foundation Establishment Perfection!"
Upon hearing this, many people's expressions changed.
Foundation Establishment Perfection is only one step away from Golden Core, so it is not considered weak.
A cultivator of this realm, and moreover a Metal Spirit Root skilled in combat, actually went and never returned.
This is enough to show that the fellow following behind everyone is very likely... Golden Core Stage.
Whether Qin Hua Golden Core or Earth Grade Golden Core, as long as one reaches the Golden Core Stage, it is a one-sided crushing against Foundation Establishment Stage and Qi Refining Stage.
Xu Zhangqing leaned close to the scroll, then asked: "Can you check the other party's attribute?"
Wan Niang shook her head: "Sorry, a treasure ship of my level can't do it."
At this moment, everyone looked toward Xu Zhangqing.
As the Team Leader of the group, facing this situation, he definitely has to make a decision.
Xu Zhangqing thoughtfully said: "The most urgent matter is still to investigate clearly why this fellow is following behind us, and what his intentions are.
Spirit Rong Night, you are best at investigation, go make a trip."
To this, Spirit Rong Night did not refuse, but nodded vigorously: "Fine, I'll go right now."
Although the other party is suspected to be Golden Core Stage, more than half of those present are Golden Core Stage, and there are even top-tier Golden Cores like Zhu Rong and Su Jinli, so we are not at a disadvantage at all; at worst, we'll fight a battle.
Moreover, when it comes to fleeing, Spirit Rong Night claims second place, and no one dares claim first!
