Chapter 182

Hu Rui does not know how Wang Ping'an's talent in drawing talismans is, after all, she has never personally seen Wang Ping'an draw talismans.

However, judging from the talismans produced by Wang Ping'an's hand, elementary talismans are already comparable to intermediate talismans.

This is something many talisman masters cannot achieve!

Except for a talisman master or someone who has mastery of a certain talisman, having studied a particular talisman deeply for ten or twenty years, or even longer, only such a talisman master can achieve this.

Besides the Golden Light Talisman, Wang Ping'an's other elementary talismans are already comparable to intermediate talismans.

This is sufficient to prove Wang Ping'an's talent in the way of talismans.

Unparalleled!

But.

Even if Wang Ping'an's talent in the way of talismans is outstanding, it is impossible for him to learn to draw intermediate talismans in a short time.

Even if he could learn to draw intermediate talismans in a short time, they would all be inferior intermediate talismans.

But it is still prepared to provide Wang Ping'an with materials for drawing talismans and the method for drawing intermediate talismans; even if Wang Ping'an's talismans are all inferior, it will still purchase them at a high price.

However.

Not for profit!

But rather, it is investing in Wang Ping'an; it is optimistic about Wang Ping'an's future, believing that giving Wang Ping'an a 'bit' of time, he can make the intermediate talismans he draws better.

Afterward.

Only then will it truly be the moment to make money!

As for how long Wang Ping'an needs, it doesn't care; it is a monster with a long lifespan, plenty of time, waiting for Wang Ping'an to grow.

Of course.

To make an investment, one must be mentally prepared for failure; success has only one path, while failure has countless paths.

If the success rate is only ten percent, then the failure rate must certainly be ninety percent.

It can bear the consequences of investment failure; who let it be a big clan with great enterprise—let alone one failure, even five or ten failures are ordinary matters.

It won't even hurt its bones and muscles!

But once successful, the initial investment is enough to give it a hundredfold, thousandfold, or even ten-thousandfold return.

It is still young, has time and a future, and it very much wants to take a gamble.

Wang Ping'an glanced at Hu Rui in surprise, seeing myriad emotions flash across its face, finally replaced by a resolute expression, as if having made some decision, he sent a mental transmission:

"Then please trouble Miss Hu!"

He didn't know what decision Hu Rui had made, nor did he want to find out.

As long as Hu Rui does not intend to be unfavorable to him...

No.

Even if Hu Rui prepares to be unfavorable to him, it is actually a good thing for him.

Being able to quickly obtain a large amount of Line7: Merit, how could it possibly not be a good thing?

Fellow Daoist!

Hu Rui watched Wang Ping'an turn and prepare to leave; before he had taken a few steps, she sent another mental transmission, calling out to Wang Ping'an. Although she couldn't see his expression, one could easily imagine it was filled with strange meaning.

After all.

Wang Ping'an was called out by it again and again!

If it were someone else, not to mention strange intentions, even being angry would be justified. Hu Rui paid no mind, and reminded again: 'Fellow Daoist, I urge you, please please do not cultivate the Blood God Scripture, for this cultivation method brings you no benefit at all, only endless calamities!'

"Miss Hu, thank you for your reminder, I understand!"

Wang Ping'an gave a wry smile; although he didn't know why Hu Rui would say such things, he could feel her concern.

Unfortunately.

Not long after Wang Ping'an obtained the Blood God Scripture, he had already begun cultivating it, and had even cultivated it to minor accomplishment.

Hu Rui watched Wang Ping'an's departing back, silently praying that he would keep her words in mind; otherwise, this investment of hers cannot be said to be a complete failure, but there is a ninety percent chance of failure.

Its Nine-headed Mountain Fox Clan, although not a great clan, is also a lineage of the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox; among its elders, and many monsters, there are ambiguous relationships.

From those powerful, even terrifying monsters, one can still obtain some information.

The Blood God Scripture is one of them!

Not only do cultivators who cultivate the Blood God Scripture and monsters have ideas about other cultivators or monsters who likewise cultivate the Blood God Scripture.

This novel you have arrived at

Even other monsters, as well as evil demons and heretical paths, have ideas about cultivators who cultivate the Blood God Scripture or monsters.

To put it bluntly, cultivators who cultivate the Blood God Scripture are, in the eyes of countless monsters, practically walking miraculous elixirs, a great tonic.

This is when Character: Xue Shen Dao Ren first appeared in their Jiu tou shan ji shi; its ancestor had once warned it, telling it to absolutely avoid conflict with Character: Xue Shen Dao Ren, and moreover, to absolutely never cultivate the Blood God Scripture.

Otherwise.

Endless calamity!

Of course.

What it said to Wang Ping'an's face, that it would help him deal with Character: Xue Shen Dao Ren, is also not a deception of Wang Ping'an; as long as it mentions Wang Ping'an's value to its ancestor, given the ancestor's shrewdness, it will certainly support it.

Its ancestor is willing to let Character: Xue Shen Dao Ren swindle and do evil deeds on the Jiu tou shan ji shi, merely to give face to other monsters; but if it could benefit itself, or even the entire fox clan, what's wrong with not giving face?

Anyway.

Not just one Character: Xue Shen Dao Ren does such things!

Besides their this market, elsewhere there are also cultivators or monsters similar to Character: Xue Shen Dao Ren, doing the same thing.

Promoting the Blood God Scripture, luring other cultivators or even monsters to cultivate the Blood God Scripture.

Wang Ping'an sat on the back of Line2: Peregrine Falcon Little Gray, waiting for Line2: Peregrine Falcon Little Gray to bring him back; his consciousness returned to his main body, and myriad thoughts arose in his mind.

Thinking about the specific meaning of Hu Rui's last words when parting.

Why would she warn him, urging him absolutely not to cultivate the Blood God Scripture?

Wang Ping'an pondered: "Could it be that behind this Blood God Daoist there are other cultivators or monsters serving as his backing, and they also cultivate the Blood God Scripture?"

If that were the case, he could understand why Hu Rui would warn him against cultivating the Blood God Scripture.

It seemed he had thought of something good; a smile appeared at the corner of Wang Ping'an's mouth, and he thought to himself: "If that's the case, that would also be a good thing—no, it's a great thing!"

He would be happy because there are others cultivating the Blood God Scripture, not because he intends to, like the majority of cultivators or monsters who practice the Blood God Scripture, devour other practitioners of it.

He already has Merit to upgrade the Blood God Scripture, so why would he need to use such heretical methods to cultivate it?

What pleases him is that the vast majority of people or monsters who cultivate the Blood God Scripture are mostly of low moral standing compared to ordinary people, and they have surely done many bad things.

The higher one's cultivation, the more evil deeds they commit; once slain, they can yield a great amount of Merit!

He not only expects that behind the Blood God Daoist there is a backer who also cultivates the Blood God Scripture, but he also hopes for an organization centered around cultivating the Blood God Scripture.

That way, eradicating these people completely, who knows how much Merit could be gained.

How could he not be happy?
