If this happens again, you’ll be expelled from the sect!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone stared in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng and the other three slowly stood up, exchanged glances, and swiftly left the transmission square for their respective quarters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first thing He Pingsheng did upon returning home was hang a sign reading “In Seclusion” at the door, then activated the array and stepped inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being punished by Master was a trivial matter he never took to heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What were such minor humiliations?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to his parents’ vengeance, they were utterly insignificant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng sat cross-legged, quieted himself for the duration of an incense stick, letting all negative emotions dissipate, then opened his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Less than a month remained before the secret realm opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Preparations were nearly complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, he needed to consolidate everything one final time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His cultivation base could no longer rise—it remained at Qi Refining seventh layer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any spells he hadn’t mastered or hadn’t practiced yet could still be refined during this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then came the treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the talismans he bought at Mount Matou Market needed strong reinforcement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng took out all the talismans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not many—only six in total.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ice Needle Talisman: two!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lightning Talisman: two!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth Shield Talisman: two!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disguise Talisman: one!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, He Pingsheng tossed all the talismans into the Treasure Basin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he began practicing his spells.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, inventory his spells.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Metal-element spells: two—Yellow Turban Warrior, Golden Shield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wood-element spell: none.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Water-element spell: one—Ren Water Escape Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fire-element spells: two—Fire Crow Art, Fire Shield Art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth-element spell: one—Earth Armor Art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Six spells total: two offensive—Yellow Turban Warrior and Fire Crow Art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both were mastered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three defensive—Golden Shield, Fire Shield Art, Earth Armor Art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Golden Shield remained unlearned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, He Pingsheng felt no need to learn it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth Armor Art and Fire Shield Art were enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One escape spell: Ren Water Escape Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He should learn this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the rest of the time, He Pingsheng trained the Ren Water Escape Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just over ten days, he mastered it thoroughly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after mastering it did he realize its true power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simply put, in any area with water, he could vanish into it and flee swiftly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His speed underwater was extremely fast—nearly equal to sprinting on land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another advantage: invisibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hide within water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless the opponent’s spiritual sense was powerful enough, they couldn’t detect him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s how extraordinary it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this time, He Pingsheng not only mastered the Ren Water Escape Technique but also reinforced each talisman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ice Needle Talisman upgraded to Ice Arrow Talisman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lightning Talisman upgraded to Heavenly Thunder Talisman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth Shield Talisman upgraded to Solid Rock Talisman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disguise Talisman remained Disguise Talisman after reinforcement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But its quality improved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before reinforcement, according to the stunning woman, this Disguise Talisman could be used three times, each lasting two hours, fooling Qi Refining twelfth-layer disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reinforcement, it became two talismans, each reusable twelve times, each lasting one full day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it could deceive Foundation Establishment cultivators, He Pingsheng didn’t know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he knew it would certainly improve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In summary, his current usable talismans were:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ice Arrow Talisman: seven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fireball Talisman: three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Thunder Talisman: four.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Solid Rock Talisman: four.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disguise Talisman: two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for magic treasures, He Pingsheng had refined: one supreme flying sword, one supreme Qingmu Shield, one supreme Seclusion Array, one supreme Cloud-Piercing Boat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Altogether, he couldn’t claim to be armed to the teeth, but he was more than sufficiently equipped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other materials went into his storage pouch; these frequently used treasures and talismans were placed in a separate storage pouch for easy access.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After this, He Pingsheng opened his door and stepped outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only seven days remained until the secret realm opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Younger brother, you’ve come out of seclusion?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he stepped out, Zhao Linger sprinted over from afar: “Hurry, hurry… Master sent me to find you—go to Master’s Dao Hall for the meeting!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Pingsheng didn’t dare delay; he hurried with Zhao Linger to Yu Ning Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Found a cushion and sat down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On a stone lotus platform sat a Daoist nun, about fifty years old—Master Yu Ning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing all her disciples arrive, Yu Ning smiled. “Excellent! All nine disciples of Yu Ning Palace have earned entry into the secret realm!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Senior brother Hou Muxian bowed. “All thanks to Master’s guidance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other disciples, including He Pingsheng, also bowed and flattered: “All thanks to Master’s guidance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehe…” Yu Ning chuckled. “Enough flattery. Seven days remain until the realm opens—the sect has decided we depart early. This afternoon, we set out as a team.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There are several key points I must clarify.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“First, all inner disciples of Grand Void Gate must wear the sect’s pale white robes, for easy identification among fellow disciples.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Second, I don’t care what others do, but my disciples must travel in pairs.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hou Muxian, as senior brother, you lead this team.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master!” Hou Muxian’s face darkened. “My cultivation has been stuck at a bottleneck for thirteen years. I’ve waited until now for the realm to open, planning to risk entering the core zone to seek the Water Elemental Spirit Apricot to break through. If I have to lead them—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at He Pingsheng and the others, his expression full of desperate pleading.\u003C\u002Fp>",1034,"2026-06-21T04:08:57.694Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","a0f315624191acadc0e438310921f190312932d829766ce98df7982198b2b48b","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-67","the-treasure-immortal-basin-chapter-65",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-treasure-immortal-basin-cover.jpg"]
