Chapter 205: Secret Language
In front of the sixth mirror.
He Pingsheng's eyes fell again.
This time he saw a dragon with a strange color!
Black dragon!
This...
Among the seven colors, there is no black.
So it is obvious that this black one cannot be said.
"What color?" The cultivator behind asked He Pingsheng.
He Pingsheng shook his head: "Didn't see it!"
"Go to the next one!" The man waved his hand to signal He Pingsheng to leave.
Among the tens of thousands of cultivators in the City Lord's Mansion, it is impossible for everyone to do it very carefully, and it is impossible to analyze the facial expressions of every cultivator to judge whether the other party is lying.
He Pingsheng came in front of the seventh mirror.
This is a green dragon.
"It's a green dragon!" He Pingsheng said truthfully.
Why?
Because he still has to ensure he gets the qualification to enter the God General Mountain first.
Regardless of whether he wants to go later or not, the goal now is to get it; once he gets it, he has more choices.
He can choose to go, or he can choose not to go to the God General Mountain.
And if he doesn't get the black token, he only has one option: not to go to the God General Mountain.
He Pingsheng wants one more choice.
And if he wants to get the token, it
The eighth one!
"This is a cyan dragon!"
The ninth one was a blue dragon, but He Pingsheng didn't say it.
He shook his head.
There were nine precious mirrors, each containing a dragon: a red dragon, orange dragon, yellow dragon, green dragon, cyan dragon, blue dragon, purple dragon, golden dragon, and black dragon.
He Pingsheng answered with the five: red dragon, orange dragon, yellow dragon, green dragon, and cyan dragon.
As for the blue dragon, purple dragon, golden dragon, and black dragon that followed, he saw them, but didn't dare to say.
"Not bad!" The last person handed a black token to He Pingsheng and said, "For a Five-Element Void Linggen, seeing three is already the limit, yet you broke the limit and saw five dragons. It seems your comprehension is quite extraordinary!"
The last person looked at He Pingsheng and showered him with praise.
He Pingsheng hurriedly put on a delighted expression to play along, saying, "I don't know if it's related to my spiritual sense; I've been practicing a type of spirit-refining technique since I was young, so my spiritual sense is a bit stronger than the average cultivator's!"
That person said, "Perhaps that's it!"
"Alright, next!"
He Pingsheng took the black token and left, walking out through another door of the great hall.
After coming out, he was led by other personnel out of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Little brother... how did it go?"
Wang Dun, who was waiting outside, pulled He Pingsheng over and asked, "Of the nine mirrors in the great hall, how many dragons did you see?"
He Pingsheng didn't answer, but instead asked, "How many did you see, Wang Shixiong?"
Wang Dun lowered his voice and said, "Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, plus black and gold—I saw them all!"
"But... hehehe... I didn't say!"
He Pingsheng felt a jolt in his heart: Sure enough, this Wang Dun is not simple either.
Not only did he see them all, but he likely also saw the trick behind it.
He Pingsheng still echoed him and asked, "Why?"
Wang Dun said, "Hehehe... mission, mission... this is a mission!"
"Alright, stop asking me. Did you get a token?"
"Also, how many dragons did you actually see, damn it?"
He Pingsheng said, "I'm far behind; I only saw five!"
"But I did get the token!"
He took out the token and waved it twice in front of Wang Dun.
Then, Bai Long also came out from inside.
Bai Long looked dejected; one look and it was clear he hadn't obtained a token.
"Two Senior Brothers, how many dragons did you both see?"
Bai Long asked Wang Dun and He Pingsheng curiously.
Before Wang Dun could speak, He Pingsheng stepped in first: "We both saw five dragons!"
He was terrified that Wang Dun would mention the nine dragons.
"Sigh..." Bai Long sighed, "It seems my comprehension isn't up to par; I only saw three, no token!"
Zixian and Zilan also walked out one after the other.
Zixian saw five dragons and had a token; Zilan saw seven dragons and naturally had a token as well.
Through questioning, it was learned that the dragons Zilan didn't see were the golden dragon and the purple dragon.
So, the sequence of these nine dragons could basically be determined: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, black, gold, purple.
"Everyone, I take my leave!"
Bai Long cupped his hands and left.
He hadn't obtained a token, so he had to leave.
In fact, there were many who didn't get a token; only less than one-tenth were able to obtain one.
"Let's go!" Wang Dun looked across the street: "There's a cultivation teahouse over there; let's go inside, drink some spirit tea, and make a plan!"
The four walked to the other side and went up to the teahouse.
There were also many cultivators inside the teahouse.
It was very noisy.
After about half an hour, He Pingsheng saw Qiao Huizhu, Qiao Xiaoqiao, and a group of other disciples from the Heaven Talisman Sect arrive at the teahouse and sit down at a larger table.
Coincidentally, He Pingsheng was less than two zhang away from Qiao Huizhu.
The faint fragrance from the lady drifted over; He Pingsheng closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
He was just about to stand up and walk over to Qiao Huizhu to reveal himself, but at the critical moment, he suddenly felt a jolt through his whole body.
No!
Check first if there are any people from the Beast Taming Immortal Sect around.
He didn't see any.
As long as there are no people from the Beast Taming Immortal Sect, it's fine!
Although he couldn't see anyone from the Beast Taming Immortal Sect, He Pingsheng didn't dare to rashly seek out Qiao Huizhu.
After all, who knew if those people from the Beast Taming Immortal Sect were hiding in the shadows?
Just as He Pingsheng was pondering, Qiao Xiaoqiao stood up first; she walked to He Pingsheng's side and said, "Big brother, excuse me, let's make a deal!"
"Our young lady doesn't have enough seats; could you give us your seat and go sit over there?"
As she spoke, she extended her jade hand and pointed in another direction.
He Pingsheng looked.
But then he heard Qiao Xiaoqiao whisper: "Don't speak, don't move, don't look around; someone is watching..."
He Pingsheng's body shuddered, and he immediately understood.
Those beasts from the Beast Taming Immortal Sect were indeed watching from the shadows!
"Alright!" He Pingsheng said, "Let's go over there!"
The four of them walked to the seats nearby.
He Pingsheng didn't turn his head to look at Qiao Huizhu, but quietly extended his spiritual sense to scan the surroundings.
He looked for a long time but couldn't find the hiding place of the Beast Taming Immortal Sect disciples.
Perhaps they had already changed their clothes.
"Little brother, are you going to the God General Mountain or not, damn it?" Wang Dun asked He Pingsheng again: "I'll kowtow to you, will that work?"
Before He Pingsheng could speak, he heard Qiao Huizhu speak from behind.
Qiao Huizhu said, "This time, our Heaven Talisman Sect obtained four tokens in total; besides me, there's Xiaoqiao, Wang Shixiong Yue, and Wang Shixiong Ling!"
"For the rest of you without tokens, you can return this afternoon with the senior brothers from the Beast Taming Immortal Sect!"
"We will wait here for the opening of the God General Mountain!"
Hearing this, He Pingsheng immediately understood: Qiao Huizhu was hinting for him to go to the God General Mountain!
He Pingsheng then nodded: "Alright, Wang Shixiong Wang, call me when you're ready to go!"
