Central Plains, Tianxian City

Inside a certain inn, Yang Xiong walked into the room and saw Yang Luo drawing talismans. He didn’t say anything and waited for Yang Luo to finish drawing the talisman before approaching.

"Is no one coming today, senior brother?"

"Waited for half a day, not a single person came. Junior sister, you miscalculated. It’s been half a month, and no one dares to come find you."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"It was within my expectations."

"Junior sister is still too careless. Once the words of the spiritual talisman are spoken, everyone in the world will be your enemy, except for those low-level cultivators in the Qi Refining Period. You won’t have anyone supporting you."

Yang Xiong said. Yang Luo’s innovation of the spiritual talisman is known only in a small circle within the Holy Heavenly Sect. They have advised her many times not to make it public and to secretly research it. But Yang Luo doesn’t listen, and it worries him a lot.

"Senior brother, why are you afraid? These people just haven’t thought it through. If they do, they will realize that everything has two sides. Although they may face challenges from lower-level cultivators, can’t they also challenge higher-level cultivators?"

Yang Luo said. As long as I perfect my new style talisman, the golden core can surpass the Nascent Soul, and the Nascent Soul can surpass the Soul Changing. As long as it’s not the Disaster Crossing Period, there will be benefits.

"Junior sister, you overestimate human nature. In such situations, everyone’s first thought is their own loss of benefits, followed by endless conspiracies and assassinations. So, junior sister, let’s go home. I’m afraid I won’t be able to protect you."

"What’s the point of going home? Let’s stay."

"Junior sister, your safety…"

"Don’t be afraid, everything will be fine."

"There is something at stake. If anything happens to you, my father will definitely kill me."

Yang Xiong said. The most important person in the Holy Heavenly Sect is not me, Yang Xiong, or even my father Yang Xi, but the person in front of us, Yang Luo. The world doesn’t know that the Holy Heavenly Sect is what it is today because of Yang Luo. She is the most precious person in the Holy Heavenly Sect.

"Senior brother, why do you think people live?"

"I don’t know, maybe it’s for immortality."

"But my life is different. I want my life to be more exciting, more wonderful. If my whole life is just ordinary and dull, like a stagnant pond, then it’s really terrible. It would be better to just die."

"·····"

Yang Xiong couldn’t keep up with Yang Luo’s thoughts. He felt like his junior sister had truly gone mad.

"Senior brother, there’s no need to persuade me anymore. Trust me, someone will come. My research has really hit a wall, I need the wisdom of many people."

"Junior sister, doing it this way might actually get you into trouble."

"I’ve already said it, nothing will happen. Don’t worry."

Yang Luo shook her head. Despite being just a golden core cultivator, she had means to protect herself. It’s not easy for ordinary people to kill her.

········

"This Yang Luo is truly extraordinary."

The entrance of Danxia Sect, a cultivator who had achieved the Tao, heard about Yang Luo’s theories and sighed in admiration of her wisdom.

"Senior Brother, Yang Luo’s ideas are too dangerous. If she perfects her ideas and even modifies seventh-stage spiritual talismans, all of us who have achieved the Tao will be in danger." ℟₳Ŋ∅βƐṡ

"So, do you want to kill her?"

"Yes, such actions would cause the collapse of the entire cultivation world’s order. The sects will lose their advantages, independent cultivators will seize the opportunity, and we will struggle to protect ourselves. It’s dangerous, so we must extinguish it early on to uphold the right path."

"It’s too late."

"Senior Brother, how can it be?"

"If Yang Luo hadn’t made this public before, they could have silenced this danger. But now, so many people know. One Yang Luo has already died, and there are thousands of people researching. Although their intelligence is not as good as Yang Luo’s, as long as generation after generation continues to study, there will eventually be a second Yang Luo. Can you guarantee to kill everyone?"

"Ah"

"Did I say it wrong?"

"Senior brother is right. What should we do then? Just sit and watch this happen?"

Another cultivator from Danxia Sect’s Tao Achieving cultivation said. This makes sense too. Dozens of Talisman Makers knew about it that day, and it has been many days already. Perhaps the news has already spread. We can’t even block it.

"It doesn’t matter. If you think that independent cultivators or low-level cultivators can change the order of the cultivation world with just a few talismans, you’re thinking too much. If this talisman path is really perfected, do you think there will be more talismans in the hands of independent cultivators or in our hands?"

"That’s true, but I’m still worried."

"Worrying is useless. Just go ahead and kill Yang Luo. Wait for Yang Xi to come after you. If other families don’t move, we won’t move either. Let’s play the waiting game."

The Danxia Sect’s Tao Achieving cultivator said, truly not worried at all. This completely new style of talisman path is much more difficult compared to the old talisman path, and in the end, it will only be mastered by a few people. As the world’s top sect, Danxia Sect is definitely part of that few. They have too much advantage.

"Oh, since Senior Brother said so, then let’s follow Senior Brother’s plan. After all, she wants to threaten us, but there’s still a long way to go."

"That’s right, tell Li Cai to keep interacting with Yang Luo. If he gains any information, our Danxia Sect must be the first to know. We need to learn these talisman techniques as quickly as possible."

"Yes, Senior Brother."

·······

"Senior Brother Li."

"Senior Brother Li."

Several Talisman Makers from Danxia Sect greeted Li Cai as he arrived.

"How have you all been progressing with your research recently, junior disciples?"

"It failed."

"I also failed, even the basic spiritual talisman failed."

Several talisman makers from the Danxia Sect spoke up, saying that ever since they learned about Yang Luo’s idea, they immediately went back to the Danxia Sect to research and experiment themselves. However, without exception, they all failed.

"How is Senior Li doing?"

"I also failed. The seal of the spiritual talisman has been passed down for countless years, and we have always done it this way. But by rashly changing it, we ended up triggering the spiritual talisman too early, and not once have we succeeded."

"Senior Li, is it too difficult for us to give up on the path of talismans? In the end, only a very few people can master it."

"Otherwise, should we go and seek guidance from Yang Luo again?"

Some suggested giving up, while others wanted to continue seeking guidance from Yang Luo. In the past half month, none of them dared to approach Yang Luo because they were all intelligent individuals. Intelligent people think ahead and know the consequences of Yang Luo’s idea. They didn’t want to become a part of those who would be eliminated.

"You can contact Yang Luo, but not with so many people. Just one person from among you is enough."

Li Cai nodded as he received new orders from above, instructing him to continue contacting Yang Luo.

Li Cai was not silly, he understood what his superiors were thinking. It was a mix of love and hate. The Danxia Sect held the best control over this technique, but if it fell into the hands of others, it wouldn’t be good.

Therefore, it was very dangerous to have contact with Yang Luo because the attitudes of the superiors and other sects were unclear. Li Cai didn’t dare to take the risk; he would leave it to his junior brothers.

"Um…"

The Talisman Makers from the Danxia Sect were not foolish. Going alone would be very dangerous, wouldn’t it?

"Junior Brother Zhong, you are most fond of talisman techniques. This time, I will give you this opportunity. Don’t thank me too much."

Seeing nobody volunteering, Li Cai chose one of his junior brothers. This junior brother didn’t have much background, so he was perfect as a scapegoat. If he succeeded, it would be his luck. If he failed, hehe.

"Senior Brother Li, my skills are lowly…"

"Junior Brother Zhong, this is a rare opportunity I begged for you in front of our ancestor. How can you not know how lucky you are? Just think, if you learn this talisman technique, wouldn’t you become the top Talisman Maker in the world? All the Talisman Makers in our sect would look up to you for guidance. I’m afraid even I, as the Hall Master, would have to step aside for you."

"Yes, Junior Brother Zhong, this is Senior Brother Li taking care of you. We haven’t even had a chance at this opportunity."

"Brother Zhong, please thank Senior Li."

"Brother Zhong, the opportunity is right in front of you, don’t miss it."

The other Talisman Makers saw this and all agreed, encouraging Brother Zhong to take on this task. After all, they weren’t the ones taking the risk, so why not encourage him?

Brother Zhong’s scalp went numb. He knew they were just teasing him, but if Senior Brother gave the command, what could he do? Should he accept or not?

"Brother Zhong, it seems you don’t even listen to Elder Ancestors’ orders."

"Senior Brother, I’ll take it, is that okay?"

There was no other choice. Brother Zhong could only grit his teeth and accept it.

"That’s right, remember to communicate more with Yang Luo. Also, remember to take note of the other cultivators who interact with Yang Luo."

"Yes, Senior Brother."

"Okay, everyone can go now."

When Li Cai saw his junior, Zhong, agree, he waved his hand to dismiss everyone.

One day later, Zhong arrived at the inn where Yang Luo was staying in Tianxian City. He stood at the door for a long time, hesitating. His inner turmoil continued.

"Boom!"

Just as Zhong clenched his teeth and was determined to go inside, the inn suddenly exploded violently. Then, a figure flew out and crashed onto the ground without making a sound.

"Senior Yang, this…"

"You are a disciple of the Danxia Sect. You’ve come at the right time. This person attempted to assassinate me, but I killed them instead. Send someone to clean up."

Yang Xiong glanced at Zhong and casually said. Yang Luo’s challenge has begun. Today, we already have the first assassin. Who knows how many there will be in the future. It’s really troublesome. He doesn’t understand the genius world.

"Yes, Senior Yang."

Little Brother Zhong was delighted when he heard the news. He no longer had to go and quickly ran away.
