Buzz-
The new Talisman Beast Diagram trembled endlessly. The patterns on it were a little lifelike, like a portion of the patterns on the scales of a huge creature. Compared to the Talisman Beast Diagram made of a single special spirit rune, this talisman was even more powerful.
Shen Ping’s powerful late-stage Golden Core divine sense controlled the balance. He continued to work on his talismans.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The 2,000 swamp beasts attacked the defensive spiritual light crazily, and every attack caused the light on the surface to continue to dim.
The defense of the fourth level of the trial space could only last for two hours. If the Sea of Talisman Mystique of the Talisman Dao Mystique wanted to unleash its power, it needed to fuse at least five talismans. With the time taken to make the first Talisman Beast Diagram, Shen Ping could not make five at all, but he did not look anxious at all.
The new Talisman Beast Diagram was created by him using the combination of three special spirit runes. There were only 50 spirit runes in total. The reason why it took a lot to create the first chapter was mainly because of the discomfort of the first fusion in the training space.
Then, the second, third… As he became more and more familiar with the outline of the runes, he could make three of them in twenty minutes. Moreover, it was getting faster and faster.
Just as the light of the array formation dimmed to a small point, Shen Ping was already surrounded by ten new Talisman Beast Diagrams.
Boom!
The extremely fragile defensive spiritual light formation completely collapsed. Two thousand swamp beasts surged towards Shen Ping like a tide. Looking at the scene in front of him, his eyes lit up.
His lips moved gently—Sea of Talisman!
As the divine power was activated, a pillar of light that was even more dazzling than the sun suddenly appeared in the fourth level of the trial space.
Three years of silence exploded at this moment. The power of the fusion of the new Talisman Beast Diagram completely exceeded Shen Ping’s expectations.
In an instant, the pillar of light carried the most powerful and immeasurable destructive might in the world, and it quickly swept away the swamp beasts that surged over from all directions.
Before these strange swamp demon beasts with strong defense could touch the pillar of light, their ferocious bodies shattered easily like eggshells and completely evaporated.
“Congratulations to the new core disciple, Shen Ping, for passing the fourth level of the trial. Please rest for a while and head to the next level.” The moment the pillar of light disappeared, a gentle voice that he had not heard in a long time sounded in the space.
Shen Ping could not help but smile as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden. He knew that he had made the right move by immersing himself in studying the new Talisman Beast Diagram for half a year!
Mountain Fire Hall.
In the main hall.
Many members had already gathered in front of the huge floating rankings.
Although many people did not think highly of Shen Ping and thought that it would be very difficult for him to catch up to the new Talisman Master Jing Yu, this was the first time in three years that Shen Ping had entered the trial space to break through to the rankings. Therefore, as long as they were not in seclusion, they would basically come over to take a look after receiving the news.
Anyway, he could not wait for long.
Li Yin stared at the ranking of the Hidden Dragon Ranking. Discussions kept ringing in his ears.
“The fourth level’s assessment space is very difficult. The first of the Hidden Dragon Rankings did not pass. It’s almost two hours, but there’s still no change in the ranking. It seems that Talisman Master Shen is indeed not good!”
“I thought he could return to the top three, but in the end… 1 still overestimated him!”
“That’s right. In the end, he relied on other methods in the Dao of Talismans. In our True Treasure Pavilion, the various scriptures derived from the Beast Scripture are the core and everything. Other methods might be quite powerful in the early stages, but as time passes, the skill geniuses who comprehend the scriptures will gradually reveal their advantages.”
“That’s right. Over the years, it has already been proven.”
Li Yin’s face was tense. He wanted to retort, but he did not have the confidence. Moreover, what these members said was the truth.
Whoosh.
There was a change in the ranking of the Hidden Dragon Ranking. The name that all the members were paying attention to rushed to the top of the rankings at an almost crushing speed.
Instantly, the hall was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Everyone, including Li Yin, stared at the familiar name at the top of the rankings—Shen Ping! No one expected him to return to the top of the rankings. Yet it was this impossibility, this unimaginable, that had happened.
It was silent for dozens of breaths before the discussions in the hall sounded like thunder again.
“First place, Talisman Master Shen returns to first place!”
“How is this possible? Didn’t he just master the first volume of the beast form?!”
“What’s going on? Is this the level that the first volume of the beast form can reach?”
“The person in second place almost passed the fourth level of the Trial Space. Supposedly, he’s about to completely grasp the five volumes of the beast form. It’s understandable that this Talisman Master Shen was able to ascend to the top of the rankings at the beginning by utilizing other Dao of Talismans, but it’s already been three years. If the Dao of Talismans he grasped is really so formidable, then it’s impossible for him to fall out of the top three of the rankings!”
“I don’t understand. Even if he has improved, he hasn’t even started studying the second volume of the beast form!”
He looked at the incredulous expressions of his fellow hall members. Li Yin could not help but laugh. He shouted in a firm and steady voice, “Everyone, the rankings will not be fake. It’s a fact that Shen Ping has returned to the top of the rankings. There’s no doubt about it!”
As his voice fell, the discussions in the hall gradually died down. All the members more or less fell silent. It was really difficult for them to figure it out. It was precisely because of this that there were discussions and confusion. However, no matter who it was, they had to admit that what Li Yin said was
true..
