Chapter 96

"Qiao Shijie Qiao, I am very sorry!" He Pingsheng said: "If possible, anything else can be given to you!"

"I have a great use for this Dao talisman!"

A Dao talisman is a special type of talisman.

He Pingsheng had once learned about it in 【Cultivation Miscellany】.

Take ordinary talismans, for example; they have tier divisions.

A first-tier talisman has an upper limit.

Even the ones in He Pingsheng's hands, such as 【Fire Bomb Talisman】, 【Ice Arrow Talisman】, 【Stubborn Stone Talisman】, and 【Heavenly Thunder Talisman】, cannot kill any Foundation Establishment disciple.

Because the talisman is first-tier, its energy upper limit is too low.

To kill a Foundation Establishment disciple, one must use a second-tier talisman.

But using a second-tier talisman for a Qi Condensation disciple has a problem: it is not easy to activate.

Let's put it this way: a Qi Condensation disciple activating a first-tier talisman takes less than a breath of time.

If one goes to activate a second-tier talisman, not only does it consume a large amount of magic power and soul sense, but it also takes a long time; don't even think about activating it without three or five breaths.

This is a huge problem.

When two sides are fighting, once one needs to use such an ultra-tier talisman, the enemy must be particularly powerful.

At this time, do you still have three or five breaths of time?

In most cases, you don't.

But a 【Dao talisman】 is different!

The power of a Dao talisman can break the limit of the talisman's tier.

For example, this 【Taoist talisman】 of Xiao Bufan's that was captured is first-tier.

But its power can reach the power of a second-tier talisman.

Why?

Because to make a Dao talisman, a particularly harsh condition is required: the talisman maker must be at the Nascent Soul stage.

After a cultivator breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage, their cultivation method changes.

The reason why the Nascent Soul stage is powerful is partly because of high cultivation, and partly because Nascent Soul cultivators have begun to come into contact with and comprehend Dao techniques.

And the reason why the 【Dao talisman】 made by a Nascent Soul cultivator can break the limit of the talisman's tier is because they can send their own Dao techniques into it, using Dao techniques to imprison energy.

Thus, when the talisman is activated and the energy erupts, power exceeding the tier erupts.

This tiny first-tier 【Dao talisman】 can sometimes severely injure a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Of course, such great killing weapons as Dao talismans are not common in the Cultivation World.

Because when this thing is made, it will damage the Nascent Soul cultivator's own Dao techniques.

So unless it is for someone very close, a Nascent Soul great expert will absolutely not make one.

For He Pingsheng, this thing has another important use, which is that there is currently a Foundation Establishment Yude waiting for him outside; if he has a 【Dao talisman】 in his hand, especially a strengthened Dao talisman, he will have one more possibility of survival.

"Fine!" Seeing Qiao Huizhu nodded and said: "This thing was originally dispensable to me; if it is of great use to you, then you take it!"

"Thank you, Qiao Shijie Qiao!" Since Seeing Qiao Huizhu said so, He Pingsheng naturally did not stand on ceremony; he waved his hand and put the thing away.

"I'll give you the storage bag!" He Pingsheng pointed to the bag.

Seeing Qiao Huizhu curled her lips and said: "I wouldn't dare to take this bag!"

"The eldest disciple of the Ice Extreme Sect is dead, and his master must already be on the way at this very moment; if you go out with the storage bag now, guess what will happen?"

He Pingsheng nodded and said: "Qiao Shijie's words make sense!"

"Then..."

He thought for a moment and asked: "What is the cultivation of the master of this eldest disciple of the Ice Extreme Sect?"

Seeing Qiao Huizhu said: "Golden Core stage!"

He Pingsheng did not show any expression of fear; he just nodded lightly and said: "Alright, I will handle this storage bag!"

"Then you can have the rest of the items, Qiao Shijie!"

He Pingsheng naturally would not give things away for no reason; he also had requests for Seeing Qiao Huizhu.

Seeing Qiao Huizhu put away the spirit stones and other items.

He Pingsheng said: "Qiao Shijie, does this count as me saving your life?"

"Of course!" Seeing Qiao Huizhu said: "This is beyond doubt!"

He Pingsheng said: "I am also in life-threatening danger now; can Qiao Shijie help this little brother?"

Seeing Qiao Huizhu looked strange: "You? Life-threatening danger?"

"Yes!" He Pingsheng nodded and said: "Qiao Shijie doesn't know, but I killed a fellow disciple, and as far as I know, her grandfather is waiting for me outside the Mystic Realm right now; he is at the Foundation Establishment stage, so once I leave the Mystic Realm, I will surely die!"

"Ah?" Seeing Qiao Huizhu was stunned: "This... alright, how do you want me to help you?"

He Pingsheng said: "I am planning this: later, I will use a Disguise Talisman to dress as a woman and leave the Mystic Realm with you!"

"At that time, you just say I am a disciple of your Heavenly Talisman Mountain, and then take me away!"

"Is that possible?"

"That's no problem!" Seeing Qiao Huizhu nodded and said: "The elder leading our Heavenly Talisman Mountain this time is my own aunt; taking you away is naturally no problem!"

"However, is that 【Disguise Talisman】 you mentioned purchased from our Heavenly Talisman Mountain?"

"Yes!" He Pingsheng said.

"Then that won't work!" Seeing Qiao Huizhu said: "The Disguise Talisman I sold you can only deceive Qi Condensation disciples after disguise; your enemy is Foundation Establishment, and although they can't see through it at a glance, if they look carefully, they can still see the clues!"

He Pingsheng said: "It doesn't matter, it has to be this way; life and death depend on fate!"

He Pingsheng decided to take a gamble.

First, his Disguise Talisman had been strengthened, so it might not be seen through by Yude.

Besides, when disguising, as long as others don't check carefully with their soul sense, even a Golden Core cultivator wouldn't see the clues.

He was just afraid of others using soul sense.

In this way, the possibility of avoiding Yude's search would be greatly improved.

"Alright!" Seeing Qiao Huizhu nodded and asked: "There are four days left before this Mystic Realm closes; how do you plan to spend them?"

He Pingsheng smiled bitterly and said: "How else can I spend them? My soul sense is seriously injured, so I plan to rest and nourish my spirit!"

"Alright!" Seeing Qiao Huizhu said: "I will go out and see if I can obtain any opportunities; regardless of whether I can get any opportunities or not, I will return on the last day and leave here together with you!"

"I'm off!"

Seeing Qiao Huizhu stood up, waved at He Pingsheng, and left.

After about a dozen breaths of time, she returned.

"Qiao Shijie Qiao, what's wrong?" He Pingsheng asked.

Seeing Qiao Huizhu asked: "When you were unconscious before, didn't you feel anything wrong?"

He Pingsheng was confused: "No... I had a headache, and I was especially thirsty; I felt uncomfortably hot all over, as if I were in a desert!"

"Oh!" Seeing Qiao Huizhu let out a sigh of relief and said: "Three miles to the left outside the cave, there is a clear little stream; if you feel sticky and uncomfortable later, go to that stream and take a bath!"

"Remember, your soul sense is injured, don't run around!"

"Stay here and nourish your spirit in peace, and wait safely for my return!"

After saying this, Seeing Qiao Huizhu directly opened her paper crane and flew into the sky with one flap of its wings.
