Chapter 267: What Did Husband Do?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As Hall Master Yueling left, the invisible and powerful pressure in the void instantly disappeared, and all the cultivators present felt relieved. Facing an expert at the main hall level, no matter who it was, they would feel uncomfortable. This feeling was as if they were standing on the edge of a cliff, and their life and death were not up to them.
It was the same for Shen Ping. Only when he saw the phantom completely dissipate did his tense mind relax a lot.
Hall Master Huayun walked forward and said with a smile, “Talisman Master Shen, congratulations on becoming a Class A core. In the True Treasure Pavilion, Foundation Establishment and Golden Core are all fledgling eagles that have yet to grow. They need to stay in the headquarters and cultivate steadily. Now that a calamity is approaching, this Linhai Immortal City is not a place to stay for long! If Talisman Master Shen wants to go further, it’s best to go to the headquarters as soon as possible.”
After saying that, he turned into a streak of light and soared into the sky. The other Hall Masters and higher-ups also walked over one after another. They congratulated him and left one after another.
They had come here to recruit Shen Ping. Now that Shen Ping had already made his choice and joined the Mountain Fire Hall, there was naturally no need for them to stay any longer.
Shen Ping stood on the spot in silence as he watched as the large flying ships of the True Treasure Pavilion disappeared in the sky. Although it was just a simple choice, the experiences of the past few days had made his mental state grow. As a late Foundation Establishment cultivator, he could not help but feel a little smug when he was suddenly treated so warmly and warmly by these hall masters.
He was no exception. Even though he knew that the Hall Masters of the various halls only had such an attitude on account of his talent, comprehension, and future potential, that kind of attention was really difficult to control. Not to mention that he was valued by the main hall.
If it were any other cultivator, it was possible to lose one’s heart. However, Shen Ping had lived a difficult cultivation life for more than 20 years, so he could see himself better. Moreover, he understood that he was different from those true monstrous geniuses. The reason why he could have today’s achievements and reveal his super talent in skills was entirely because of the virtual interface.
He was nothing without this support. Therefore, it was these things that kept Shen Ping awake.
Not far away, Hall Master Dan Hai, who had yet to leave, sighed with emotion. “Fellow Daoist Shan Huo is really bold. In order to let Talisman Master Shen join your Mountain Fire Hall, you actually dare to offer such conditions of full support. I’m ashamed of my inferiority!”
Although the resources of a Hall-level faction far exceeded that of the Pavilion and Boat, there were many internal members. It consumed a lot of resources. In the True Treasure Pavilion, more than 60% of the Hall-level factions could barely maintain the balance between the acquisition and consumption of resources. It was almost very difficult to increase their overall strength.
For example, the Dan Hai Hall had been going downhill all these years. If no new genius members appeared to compete for the resources of the main hall and the head hall, then in tens of thousands of years, the Dan Hai Hall would decline day by day. In the end, it might even be demoted to the pavilion level.
Even with such a huge crisis and pressure, Hall Master Dan Hai did not dare to offer conditions to fully support Shen Ping.
“Since the core member of our Mountain Fire Hall is the guardian of that Talisman Master Shen, we won’t give up this recruitment opportunity. However, Fellow Daoist Dan Hai, you don’t have to feel pity. Fellow Daoist Yu of your hall is quite good at the beast form and hide level of the Talisman Beast Scripture, so 1 hope that he can guide Talisman Master Shen!”
Hall Master Dan Hai could not help but frown. If Talisman Master Shen had chosen to join their Dan Hai Hall, it was only right for Perfected Yu to personally guide him. However, now that he was being nurtured in Mountain Fire Hall, the situation was different.
Hall Master Huo Shan continued, “Fellow Daoist Dan Hai, 1 heard that you have an outstanding disciple who is in the same batch as Talisman Master Shen. Although the skills they cultivate and study are different, all kinds of skills have the same goal. It’s even more so for the comprehension of the Beast Scripture. If Perfected Yu can guide Talisman Master Shen, the two of them might be able to exchange their insights often in the future.
“The relationship that has accumulated over the years is probably stronger than the initial nurturing of my Mountain Fire Hall.”
Hall Master Huo Shan transmitted his voice, “And now, Talisman Master Shen has obtained the opportunity to compete for the inheritance of the Beast Scripture. Although the hope is slim, no matter what, this is an opportunity. If Talisman Master Shen can do it, then our two halls will have to interact frequently in the future.”
Hall Master Dan Hal’s heart moved. He understood the meaning of the last sentence of Hall Master Huo Shan. The forces at the headquarters of the True Treasure Pavilion were complicated, and their interests were deeply intertwined. When their cultivation levels were low, they could rely on restricted resources and various supplementary items to grow quickly and not be affected by the various forces.
However, once he broke through and grew to the late-stage Nascent Soul realm, The situation would be different. The headquarters allowed Class A core members to have members of their own faction for the sake of their growth in the late-stage Nascent Soul realm. As for the inheritor of the Beast Scripture, he needed the support of the faction even more.
“Fellow Daoist Huo Shan, this matter is not small. 1’11 go back and think about it carefully before replying.” Hall Master Dan Hai did not respond directly. The main reason was that Shen Ping’s chances of becoming the inheritor of the Beast Scripture were too low, especially when compared to the top three members of the Glory Ranking. Each of the three members had the support of the main hall.
Mountain Fire Huo Shan smiled and said, “1’11 wait for your good news.”
A moment later, the front of the Spirit Peak palace became empty.
Hall Master Huo Shan walked to the pavilion and said with a gentle smile, “The cultivation environment here in the Linhai Immortal City is relatively ordinary. If Talisman Master Shen wants your wife, concubine, and Dao companions’ future cultivation path to be smoother, heading to the headquarters is undoubtedly the best choice. Apart from the spiritual energy environment, the headquarters also has many supplementary resources like medicinal pills, cultivation techniques, spells, divine powers, dharma treasures, and so on. Most importantly, when you get there, you can have the chance to listen to the guidance of some experts.
“The chances of Foundation Establishment cultivators relying on bitter cultivation to form their Golden Core are not high, but if they can obtain guidance, not to mention forming their Golden Core, they even have a high chance of forming their Nascent Soul.”
Hall Master Huo Shan’s words were sincere. What he said was also the truth of the cultivation world. This was because compared to independent cultivators, it was easier for sect cultivators to nurture Golden Core and Nascent Soul.
Resources were important. Teacherhood was equally important. With the guidance of a senior, there would be fewer detours on the path of cultivation.
For example, Shen Ping himself. If Perfected Yun Ya had not carefully taught him the basics of talisman scriptures, he might not even have been able to comprehend the twelve special spirit runes, let alone study the one-horned strange beast talisman diagram.
Now that Yu Yan, Luo Qing, and the others had stepped into the Foundation Establishment realm one after another, it was obviously impossible for them to rely on themselves to cultivate diligently in the future. Therefore, when he heard Hall Master Huo Shan’s words, Shen Ping replied without hesitation, “Hall Master, I’m preparing to set off for the headquarters in half a month!”
Hall Master Huo Shan nodded and said, “In that case, Junior Brother and 1 will wait here for half a month. Also, Talisman Master Shen, you can call me Hall Master Ji in the future.”
“Yes, Hall Master Ji.”
In the evening, the orioles and swallows sat beside the jade table in the hall of a single courtyard. After all kinds of delicacies were served, Shen Ping told them the news of going to the headquarters of the Zhongsheng Continent’s True Treasure Pavilion. His wife, concubine, and Dao-companions were all stunned.
“The headquarters of the True Treasure Pavilion is the richest and safest cultivation place in the five continents and four seas. Once we reach there, we won’t have to wander around in the future. We can cultivate steadily and advance to immortality together!”
Perfected Qiu could not help but say, “Husband, that’s the headquarters of the True Treasure Pavilion. Even the Golden Core Guests and elders of the Linhai Immortal City are not qualified to stay there. Can we go with you?”
Wang Yun, Yu Yan, and Bai Yuying immediately looked at Shen Ping. Although they were not members of the True Treasure Pavilion, because of Shen Ping, they had more or less learned about the situation in the True Treasure Pavilion from Perfected Qiu.
“If I can go, you can!” Shen Ping smiled and said, “Let’s eat.”
Seeing this, his wife and concubines could only suppress the doubts in their hearts.
After the meal, when Shen Ping entered the main chamber to comprehend the Talisman Beast Scripture, Yu Yan arrived at the door of the chamber where Pei Huoyu was. “Senior Pei, Yu Yan has a request.”
Soon, a voice came from the quiet room. “Come in.”
She stepped inside. Yu Yan looked at Pei Huoyu and bowed. She said seriously, “Senior Pei, early in the morning, Husband told us that we’re going to the headquarters of the True Treasure Pavilion, but I know that the headquarters of the True Treasure Pavilion is not an ordinary place. Although he is a core member, it’s probably not easy to bring us along. Therefore, I request Senior Pei to tell us the inside story in detail!”
Pei Huoyu looked hesitant. “Yu Yan, Fellow Daoist Shen didn’t tell you the details because he was worried that your cultivation would be affected.”
Yu Yan bit her lip and cupped her hands. “Senior Pei, although my cultivation realm is low, 1 know what a Dao Companion is. Even if my husband doesn’t say it, we can’t not know. Please tell us!”
At this moment, several beautiful figures appeared at the door. Wang Yun, Bai
Yuying, Luo Qing, Mu Jin, Yin Honglian, and Qiu Zhenren walked in and bowed.. They said in unison, “Senior Pei, please tell us!”
