A talisman of golden elixir strength?
As soon as these words came out, Chen Ping was startled again.
The so-called talisman is obtained by sealing the power of the magic weapon condensed by the power of the original magic weapon by monks above the alchemy stage, especially old and high-level monks with no hope of advancement. The condensation process will greatly damage the vitality of the magic weapon, and many high-level monks will try their best to condense it for future generations to defend themselves until their longevity is approaching.
So it is quite cherished and very rare.
Talismans have the dual characteristics of talismans and magic weapons, and are also called "pseudo magic weapons."
Chen Ping once saw Yun Wenting use a talisman once during the demon-slaying battle, and he destroyed the demon cultivator's mountain-protecting formation with one blow.
The power cannot be said to be weak.
"That's right, this talisman can summon green clams, mother-in-law dragons, and its strength is not weaker than the early stage of the Golden Core. It's a little trick from Bailiye." Bailiye added.
Chen Ping didn't care and nodded:
"Well, I'll accept it then."
Good guy.
This Bailiye is definitely not simple.
Such an expensive gift should be given away without batting an eye.
Chen Ping also finally understood why Bailiye dared to stay in the cave of Ding Changshan, the ninth-level demon cultivator. Now it seemed that he was not completely betting that Ding Changshan had no ability to recognize evil spirits.
But there are enough means to fight the enemy.
If a conflict really breaks out, a single talisman can kill Ding Changshan.
Baili Ye dared to come to Chen Ping alone now, most likely not because he was betting on Chen Ping's character, but because he had a way to protect himself.
This is probably why he didn’t seek cooperation with Jin Dan——
——In front of the foundation, he has absolute safety. But there is no absolute certainty in front of Jin Dan.
From this point of view, judging from the degree of caution of this guy, he must have more than just this talisman in his hand.
I'm afraid his identity is not a simple casual cultivator.
Seeing Chen Ping's doubtful look, Baili Ye quickly explained:
"Senior Chen, please don't misunderstand me. Talismans are very common in the demon city where I am. I spent all my money on this talisman before reluctantly buying it at the auction. Today I have put all my hopes on it. It’s on senior’s body.”
I believe you.
You little devil, you are not an honest person at first glance.
A lot of nonsense.
Chen Ping glanced at him:
"Although there is a way to break the formation, it is by no means simple. It needs to be considered in the long run. You first tell me about the formation eyes and the secret method information you have."
The so-called formation eye is the core of the formation.
It is also the key to destroying a formation.
Bai Liye guessed that the formation eye should be set up within the boundary legal area of the fog formation.
And cracking the secret method is related to the magic method to modify the formation.
This needs to be clarified before it is possible to find the relevant secret method. Bai Linye promised that he would find a way.
The two talked for a while, and Chen Ping also had a certain understanding of the fog formation.
Finally, Chen Ping said:
"We will consider the long-term solution after cracking the formation. There is no need to rush. I have more important things to do at the moment. Besides, have you heard about Yingluo's charming body?"
"Yingluo?" Bai Linye thought about it for a moment and said:
"I have heard of Yingluo, but I have never heard of Yingluo's charming body mentioned by my senior. What's wrong? Is it related to breaking the formation?"
Hearing this, Chen Ping felt a little regretful.
"nothing."
Originally, I saw that Baili Ye seemed to have an extraordinary background and had traveled abroad, so I might know something about him, so I took a chance and asked about it, but I never thought that he didn't know.
But he didn’t say anything more.
In the end, Chen Ping left the address of Bailiye's house, which was a gathering area for mortals south of Luoyue City.
Then they shared some notes on joints.
Then let Bai Liye leave first.
…
Two days later, Chen Ping packed up his clothes, changed his face, and went home.
This time I stayed out for seventeen days, which is enough to show the hardship of collecting herbs.
After speeding for dozens of miles in the forest, he slowed down and could gradually see some monks coming and going.
Before entering the city, Chen Ping didn't go to say hello.
Chen Ping continued to walk forward, and suddenly saw some monks suddenly appearing in front.
I couldn't help but feel a little bit in my heart.
He knew that this was a group of monks who collected protection fees.
Specializes in robbing spiritual materials.
For more than a year, the divisions among the foundation-building monks of Luoyue City have become increasingly serious, and there have been constant minor conflicts between the monks from the outer sect and the original monks from the Lingxiao Sect.
Moreover, even if these conflicts come to the head, the public is justified and the mother-in-law is justified.
Even if the outer sect caused trouble first, the leader would not dare to blatantly favor the monks of the Lingxiao Sect, otherwise he would easily be accused of being unfair.
It has a bit of a "Black Lives Matter" flavor.
After all, the leader of Jindan is still a bit weak. It's just that in the early stage of Jindan, the other Jindan is weaker, and the cooperation between the two is only superficial.
The Lingxiao Sect has only more than 20 foundation-building monks, while the outer sect has more than 200 foundation-building monks, many of whom are building nine levels of foundations. Due to the huge disparity in numbers, the master of the golden elixir does not have very strong control.
Lingxiao Sect gradually lost control of Luoyue City.
Chen Ping suspected that if it weren't for the fact that the "forced collection of herbs" was beneficial to all foundations, and most of the monks unanimously agreed, otherwise it really wouldn't have been implemented.
at this background.
A foundation-building "collecting protection fee" team has been active in the forest outside Luoyue City all year round. They spontaneously formed a team under the name of a team to intercept the attacks of demonic cultivators on our monks. The purpose is to protect our herb-collecting monks. .
They actually killed the demon cultivator several times.
It is precisely because of this that although they have an unfair reputation, they still have a certain say in front of the leader who is gradually losing power, making this kind of behavior of collecting "protection fees" justifiable.
After all, the sect really has no ability to control demon cultivators.
These monks are active in the forest forty or fifty miles away from Luoyue City. This distance is just at the edge of the master's spiritual perception, allowing them to be fully prepared before the master takes action.
Black can be described as white.
This phenomenon was especially obvious after the two golden elixirs were injured and retreated.
The behavior gradually becomes more egregious.
"Fellow Taoist, according to the rules, please hand over some spiritual materials." A monk stopped Chen Ping, who was running quickly.
Chen Ping had heard about what these monks were doing, so he deliberately avoided the main road, but he didn't expect to encounter them.
Obviously, such a monk is familiar with the environment and layout of this area, and may have arranged some surveillance or early warning measures in advance.
"Okay, one plant, right?" Chen Ping followed the local customs.
Throwing over a cassia fern.
The monk opposite took the spiritual material in one hand, looked at the spiritual material, and then glanced at Chen Ping, squinting and smiling:
"Fellow Taoist, are you joking with me? We kill demons day and night and protect everyone's safety. Is this worth only a sage fern?"
"It's the same plant."
Chen Ping's eyes suddenly turned cold.
I was knocked on.
These monks have been doing this for a long time.
I already know how to recognize people.
For those foundation-building monks who took the initiative to release the eighth or ninth level of cultivation, they never blocked the way and pretended not to see it. But for a monk like Chen Ping who is alone and has a low level of cultivation, the more he can knock, the more he can.
Anyway, no one can confirm it.
"Are you kidding me fellow Taoists? It's the same plant? It's not easy for us monks to collect herbs," Chen Ping said.
There is no way out in this matter. If you are given the same plant, who knows if they will ask for more.
"Fellow Taoist, do you think I'm joking?"
The monk who blocked the road also
Without speaking, the leading monk with the highest cultivation level who had been sitting nearby watching the fun finally couldn't sit still.
He walked towards Chen Ping with a dark face and a sword in one hand.
'well! ,
'Why do you have to seek death? ,
"roll!"
Chen Ping roared angrily, and the master-level Hu Jue Luo Sword Technique was no longer something that ordinary magic weapons could withstand.
With one blow, the heads of the three monks directly opposite suddenly started to buzz.
The two low-level cultivation base builders were delirious on the spot.
The leading black-faced monk paused in his steps, and the protective belt around his waist broke instantly.
The black-faced monk was shocked.
He shook his buzzing head. But before he could react, a huge green sword fell from the sky and penetrated his body.
Chen Ping used two shots of spiritual power to deal with the two unconscious monks.
far away.
The six or seven fellow monks who were originally preparing to take action suddenly froze on the spot. Everything happened too quickly, and their boss didn't even survive a single sword attack. They stared at Chen Ping blankly.
Don't dare to make any move.
There were two other monks who were also waiting to pay the "protection fee" and their hands froze, dumbfounded by the situation in front of them.
Chen Ping glanced at the remaining monks. Their strength was basically in the early or mid-stage of foundation building. They were not too strong and not worth worrying about.
This group of monks is spread out within a circle of 40 to 50 miles outside Luoyue City. The people are scattered. They are basically one with eight or nine levels of foundation building and seven or eight in the middle or early stage of foundation building.
Chen Ping had no intention of killing them all.
These people were a bit far away, and they were spread out. If they really wanted to escape, he wouldn't be able to kill them all one by one.
I have a disguise, and the other party cannot recognize me.
He coldly glanced at the frozen people, walked over silently, retrieved the sage fern from a corpse, gently blew the dust on it, and put it back in his spiritual plant bag.
Then throw the three bodies into the storage bag.
"Are there any extra useless spiritual materials?"
Chen Ping said coldly.
There was silence.
"Yes." A group of people were stunned for a moment, and one of them was the first to react and throw a spiritual material in his hand over with spiritual power.
Several other monks followed suit.
Including the two monks who were originally waiting to pay protection fees.
Chen Ping picked up the spiritual material, ignored the group of people, turned around and disappeared into the jungle.
The other two monks who were waiting to pay the protection fee looked at each other and took advantage of the chaos to disappear into the forest.
behind.
Several people looked at each other...Are we being robbed? Obviously the process is not like this. But shame makes them surprisingly consistent in avoiding the question.
"Is that a green light sword?"
"Absolutely not. The Green Glow Sword's Ten Thousand Swords Unification can't be so fast, and there aren't that many green glows."
"It should be the monk who killed the ninth-level demon cultivator in the southwest. We are lucky to be alive."
"..."
"Hiss~ This person is so cruel. Not only did he forcibly take away my spiritual plant, but he also broke one of my hands while I was trying my best to protect the spiritual material." A sixth-level monk with the highest level of cultivation said. , at the same time, he pinched his arm with a "click".
"Yes, yes, this person is too cruel."
"Kacha~", "Kacha~", "Kacha~"
"..."
