This step was as if it had stepped out of the flames of the talisman paper. It was like being reborn from the ashes. As its claws landed in the air again, the entire sixth level of the trial trembled.
Shen Ping’s pupils constricted. The void in the depths of his eyes produced trembling aftershocks at a speed visible to the naked eye. Then, with the phantom of this strange beast as the center, it quickly spread in all directions. All life in the range of the aftershocks instantly turned into annihilation.
The tens of thousands of strange snakes seemed to have been forcefully erased and instantly dissipated. The aftershock spread to Shen Ping. A gentle light appeared under his feet and blocked the aftershock.
At the same time, a gentle voice sounded in the space. “Congratulations to the new core, Shen Ping, for passing the sixth level of the trial space. Please rest for a while and head to the next level for the trial.”
As the voice fell, the phantom of the strange beast that stepped out of the flames disappeared bit by bit. Shen Ping could not calm down for a long time. It was just a phantom, yet it had such power. If it was a real strange beast, how terrifying would it be?
Whoosh! Whoosh!
At this moment, he heard the sound of rushing wind. Only then did he come back to his senses. He looked over and saw that he was standing at the top of the mountain, surrounded by steep cliffs. “The seventh floor!”
The gentle voice sounded again. “The new core member, Shen Ping. The content of the seventh level’s trial is… Please be prepared. The countdown begins!”
Buzz. Soon, the spiritual light of rune arrays appeared at the edge of the narrow mountain peak. Bang! Bang! Bang! He looked at the rune array he had just condensed.
Before Shen Ping could come back to his senses, the defensive spiritual light trembled. In the empty air, huge strange eagles condensed. These strange eagles looked like mountain eagles. Their appearance and feathers were extremely strange, just like the strange snakes on the sixth level. What surprised him even more was that the scales on the surface of these strange eagles were similar to the patterns of strange beasts.
There were not many of them, only a hundred. However, each of their attacks was dozens of times stronger than the sixth level of the strange snake.
He was not in a hurry to outline the talisman diagram. After infiltrating the defense rune array with his divine sense to observe for a while, he determined that this level of defense rune array could only last for an hour longer than the sixth level.
Shen Ping no longer hesitated. He immediately took out the talisman material and raised the talisman brush to outline it.
This time, when the defense rune array collapsed, he successfully created two fifth volumes of the Talisman Beast Diagram. Although he still could not activate the Talisman Dao Mystique, Shen Ping was already satisfied.
Boom!
The power of the two Talisman Beast Diagrams erupted. The phantom of the strange beast that stepped out of the flames elegantly appeared again. After the aftershock of the void trembling spread, the Hundred-Headed Mountain Eagle only lasted for dozens of breaths before it shattered and dissipated.
He passed the seventh level!
In the long corridor of Dan Hai Hall, Perfected Yu was accompanying Hall Master Dan Hai to relax. The topic of conversation between the two of them was naturally Shen Ping, who had just rushed to the 21st place on the Glory Ranking. The two of them had long known that Shen Ping had comprehended the whip tail talisman diagram of the beast form, so they were not surprised that he had passed the sixth level of the trial space.
“The cultivation of the entire fifth volume of the beast-shaped talisman diagram is bound to take a few years. Talisman Master Shen usually studies it quite quickly, so it’s probably difficult for him to adapt. For example, the fourth volume of the whip-tail talisman diagram almost affected his Dao heart. Yu Cang, you have to pay special attention to this. If you have any inconvenience, you can ask my disciple, Qingling, to communicate with Talisman Master Shen and constantly probe his mental state.”
Hall Master Dan Hai instructed seriously. After all, Shen Ping was related to the future of the Mountain Fire Hall and the Dan Hai Hall. Any problem he had was not a small matter.
Perfected Yu nodded repeatedly. “Don’t worry, Hall Master. Other than Qingling, 1 will also communicate with the Mountain Fire Hall in time.”
“I’m glad you understand. If it’s those core members that have cultivated for a thousand years, you and 1 don’t have to worry too much. However, Talisman Master Shen has only cultivated for a short period of time. His bone age is only 62 years old. To you and me, it’s not an exaggeration to say that he’s a child at this age.”
Hall Master Dan Hai stroked his beard and shook his head. “Without enough experience, it is easy to accumulate thoughts. Once you go astray, it will be too late for regrets.”
Perfected Yu remained silent. He knew that the reason why the Hall Master was so emotional was because of a true disciple he had received a hundred years ago. At that time, that true disciple with outstanding alchemy talent had his foundation destroyed by the obsession of his inner demon and finally died. The puppet master arranged by the Moon Spirit Main Hall…”
Before Hall Master Dan Hai could finish speaking, he felt his and Perfected Yu’s communication jade tokens vibrate at the same time. The two of them looked at each other. Then, their divine senses quickly seeped into the jade token.
Shock appeared in their eyes. But immediately after, the jade token vibrated non-stop. The elders of the various halls, the Hall Masters, and even the Elders of the Moon Spirit Main Hall, Hall Master Yueling, and the other powerful cultivators of the Main Hall sent messages.
There was only one question. “Has Talisman Master Shen comprehended the fifth volume of the Talisman Beast Scripture?”
Hall Master Dan Hai recovered from his shock and took a deep breath. He stared at Perfected Yu and said word by word, “Yu, Yu Cang, if… if I remember correctly, you started teaching the fifth volume five days ago, right?!”
Before Perfected Yu could reply, he laughed, and his laughter grew louder and louder. In the end, the entire long corridor was filled with laughter. Amidst this laughter, a voice kept echoing, “Five days. In just five days, he comprehended the mastery of the fifth volume of the Strange Beast Talisman Diagram.. What kind of monstrous monster is this!!”
