Chapter 103: Three Talismans
Zhu Neng was dead.
For Chu Feng, however, this was the season of harvest.
[Congratulations, Host. You have slain the newly risen child of fortune, Zhu Neng. You have obtained ten million fortune points, along with the following rewards.]
[Reward 1: one sealing talisman.]
[Reward 2: one lucky talisman.]
[Reward 3: one misfortune talisman.]
That was all.
Chu Feng was utterly unsettled.
“System, isn’t this reward a little too perfunctory? That’s it? Three talismans?”
If he wanted talismans, his Taiyi Dao Sect had inherited traditions in talisman crafting.
Among the four arts of cultivation, alchemy, artifact refinement, formation arrays, and talisman making, he had studied them all. Back then, in order to break through, when he saw that normal cultivation would not do, he had taken a different path.
And his skill was by no means low.
He had already reached the Nascent Soul level.
Especially in formations. After getting a compendium of formations from Fang Yun, he had studied it whenever he had time, and had long since reached the Deity Transformation level.
As for sealing talismans, lucky talismans, and misfortune talismans, he knew how to make those too.
[Host, please read the rewards my system gave you before complaining. Don’t blame heaven and fate; look for the reason within yourself. Don’t you know that children of fortune also have ranks? Zhu Neng may be called a child of fortune, but in truth he is only a pseudo child of fortune. He doesn’t even count as a true child of fortune, so of course the rewards are several levels lower.]
[If you truly want generous rewards, then kill a few more chosen sons of destiny.]
[As for An Miaoyi, what a pity. If she had become a daughter of destiny before you took her down, you would have received rich rewards. But she became a child of fortune only after you took her down, and so the rewards are still issued according to the standards of a child of fortune. However, if your conquest value for her reaches one hundred, the rewards will naturally be doubled and issued according to the standards of a daughter of destiny.]
[Furthermore, let this system remind the host of one thing: all rights of interpretation belong to this system alone.]
So arrogant.
But Chu Feng liked it.
Who told the system to be his bread and butter?
Forget it. Three talismans were three talismans.
Just as Chu Feng sighed and claimed his rewards, he realized that he had been wrong.
These three talismans actually involved the power of laws.
His words could become law. Once unleashed, even an immortal emperor would be affected. A sealing talisman, once it struck its target, could seal away even an immortal emperor’s entire cultivation, including essence, qi, spirit, and soul, turning them into an ordinary mortal.
Not to mention the lucky and misfortune talismans.
“System, I was mistaken. I apologize. As expected, anything produced by the system is a premium item.”
These three talismans even included the method of drawing talismans.
Unfortunately, his level in talisman crafting was still a little low. But with these three talismans as his foundation, he believed the path of talismancraft would advance by leaps and bounds.
There are three thousand great dao, and every one of them can prove the Dao.
Besides, talismancraft itself was one of the most promising paths to achieving the Dao.
And then there was this sealing talisman.
Chu Feng could not help looking toward Jiang Yan.
His Dragon Subduing Palm had only temporarily suppressed Jiang Yan. After all, Jiang Yan was a Tribulation-Transcending Heavenly Lord, and she had already begun to break free of the golden dragon’s suppression.
The first time had worked only because he had caught her off guard.
If he tried again, it would not be so easy.
And this sealing talisman had arrived at just the right moment.
Chu Feng swept his hand.
The sealing talisman was activated at once and merged into Jiang Yan’s body.
The golden dragon collapsed along with it.
The instant the golden dragon shattered, Jiang Yan was overjoyed and immediately struck at Chu Feng.
As an elder of the Jiang family and a Tribulation-Transcending Heavenly Lord, how could she tolerate such humiliation?
Whoever it was, they had to die.
Yet she soon discovered that the magic power within her body had vanished. Not only her magic power, but even her body and soul had disappeared as well. She had become an ordinary person.
“What... did you do to me?” Jiang Yan stared at Chu Feng and said through gritted teeth.
Chu Feng said indifferently, “Of course I sealed your cultivation. You walked right into the trap. Who else can you blame?”
“Remember your place. You’re my prisoner now. Don’t force me to make a move.”
“Jiang Yan, I’m asking you this: where did you take Qianxue?” Chu Feng asked.
Jiang Yan immediately laughed.
She sneered, “Chu Feng, Shen Qianxue’s man, do you know why I took her to the Jiang family in the first place? Because I knew she possessed the Sacred Beauty Physique, one of those peerless constitutions.”
“Tell me, if a woman with such a physique bears children for my Jiang family, wouldn’t those children inherit that sacred aptitude? To make her bear a child, I specially found more than ten men for her and let her be pampered every day.”
Chu Feng clamped a hand around Jiang Yan’s throat, his entire body radiating icy killing intent.
“Shut your mouth. I don’t care what kind of nonsense your Jiang family is, whether you call yourselves an imperial clan or descendants of some Great Emperor. If you dare harm Qianxue even the slightest bit, I will annihilate your Jiang family. I, Chu Feng, keep my word.”
Jiang Yan said scornfully, “Just you? Who do you think you are? The foundation of an imperial clan is beyond anything you can imagine.”
“You, on the other hand, dare to harm even a hair on my head, and I, Jiang Yan, swear I will tear you to pieces.”
Bang.
Chu Feng slapped her hard across the face, his killing intent凝聚 like ice.
“I’m hitting you right now. Come on then, tear me to pieces. What of the Jiang family of an imperial clan? I, Chu Feng, will still beat you without hesitation.”
“Not to mention your so-called imperial Jiang family. Do you know An Miaoyi?”
“The contemporary saintess of the Radiant Light Holy Land. I’ve already slept with her. My woman? Don’t even mention that your looks are decent. Now that your cultivation is sealed, aren’t you still mine to do with as I please?”
“You dare?”
Jiang Yan was afraid.
This Chu Feng was clearly a madman.
Who knew what he would not dare to do?
Most importantly, his strength. Although he had ambushed her earlier, she had to admit that the power he displayed in that instant made her heart tremble.
It was entirely possible that she might not even be his match.
Just as Chu Feng was preparing to continue dealing with Jiang Yan, he was once again interrupted by a voice.
A familiar voice, bearing a familiar name.
“Little sister Shen Qianxue can tell at a glance that Brother Lin has a chivalrous heart and lofty bearing. Please, Brother Lin, save me.”
At the Prodigy Battle, on the viewing platform.
Shen Qianxue had appeared there.
With the Sacred Beauty Physique, she could easily keep those Jiang family youngsters in line. Although they would not let her leave, after Shen Qianxue put on quite a performance, they still agreed to bring her to the Prodigy Battle.
But there was one condition: after arriving at the battle, she had to return with them, and then choose one man among them to marry.
Shen Qianxue agreed without the slightest hesitation.
Marry you?
A fool’s dream.
What she was thinking about now was leaving the Jiang family first, then finding an opportunity to escape.
And the man before her, named Lin Zhantian, was a disciple of the Taichu Holy Land, one of the two great holy lands of the Eastern Wastes, and the current holy son. The moment he saw Shen Qianxue, he was immediately captivated.
When Shen Qianxue learned his identity, she instantly formed a plan in her heart, knowing that her chance to flee the Jiang family had arrived.
So she immediately sought Lin Zhantian’s help.
