Chapter 264: The Halls Can’t Sit Still (2)

As soon as he said this, the main hall-level throne phantoms looked at each other. They nodded to themselves one after another.
If Shen Ping wanted to rely on his talisman techniques to charge into the top three of the Glory Ranking, he had to at least comprehend the final state of the complete beast form. With his speed of comprehending the second volume in four hours, it was somewhat possible. However, he still had to cultivate another technique and comprehend the scripture. This was very difficult.
Considering that he was still at the Foundation Establishment realm, this was undoubtedly studying new skills from the beginning. Therefore, relying on another new technique to enter the top three of Glory in just a few years was not a fool’s dream, but a fantasy. It was impossible to complete.
“The other top ten core disciples of the Glory Ranking will also be given a chance. Whoever can comprehend more than 30% of the final state of the beast bone before the calamity descends will also become the successor!”
The gentle voice fell. The eyes of the throne phantoms in the hall immediately lit up. They no longer had any objections.
There were quiet rooms of various sizes in the main hall engraved with the pattern of the sun. Every quiet room nurtured a small spiritual vein that exceeded Level 7. Cultivating in such a spiritual energy environment, even those with impure spiritual roots could easily form their cores.
In one of the medium-grade Level 7 spiritual vein chambers, a Nascent Soul cultivator was sitting cross-legged. Suddenly, space distorted. The spiritual fog quickly gathered into a phantom.
“Greetings, Master!”
The phantom looked at the core genius ranked at the top of the Glory Ranking and said with a smile, “Disciple, your chance to become the inheritor of the Beast Scripture has arrived.”
The Nascent Soul cultivator trembled and looked excited. However, he quickly suppressed it and cupped his hands. “Master, please enlighten me.”
“It’s an order from the Head Hall Master. In the top ten of the Glory Ranking, who is…” He repeated it. The illusory figure of the main hall flapped its sleeves and said solemnly, “Disciple, this opportunity is rare. No matter what price you have to pay, I will definitely let you comprehend the final state of the beast bone as soon as possible and obtain the inheritance of the Beast Scripture!”
“Thank you for your nurturing, Master!”
Almost at the same time, this scene was also happening in the other main halls.
The top ten core members of the Glory Ranking were basically Class A. Whether it was their talent or their own aptitude, they were all monstrous geniuses. Although it was extremely difficult to comprehend the final state of the beast bone in a short period of time, it was more or less a hope.
Several minutes later, the news reached the ears of the Hall Masters and higher-ups of the various palaces.
High in the sky of the Southern Flame Continent, waves of light enveloped the surface of the large flying ship carved with mountain flames from time to time, rippling and resisting the ubiquitous astral winds. Mountain Fire Hall Master suddenly opened his eyes and revealed a shocked expression. “Personal disciple… inheritor of the Beast Scripture! I didn’t expect the Main Hall to value Talisman Master Shen so much. Although he didn’t pass the resolution, if he can rush to the top three of the Glory Ranking before the calamity descends, won’t he be able to control the entire True Treasure Pavilion in the future?!”
Originally, he had expected Shen Ping to become a Hall Master-level expert like him in the future. That was already very good. After all, the cultivation path was filled with countless difficulties and dangers. When he reached the Nascent Soul Realm, there was even a mental demon haunting him. There were many geniuses who died midway.
However, from the looks of it, he had still underestimated him. If he could obtain the Main Hall’s nurturing, his chances of dying would be very low. Moreover, even if he failed to reach the top three of the Glory Rankings, with such importance, the Main Hall would do its best to provide resources.
Thinking of this, Mountain Fire Hall Master couldn’t sit still anymore. He quickly walked to another room and looked at the purple-black-robed cultivator who was sitting cross-legged. “Junior Brother, you’ve already received the news from the main hall, right? For the sake of the overall situation of our Mountain Fire Hall, we have to let Talisman Master Shen choose the Mountain Fire Hall no matter what. In a few days, I’ll apply for you to be the Hall Master.”
The purple-black-robed cultivator stood up, shook his head, and sighed. “It’s difficult. Although we have a relationship with Huoyu, our Mountain Fire Hall doesn’t have much of an advantage among the many hall-level strengths, especially the beast skin level of the Talisman Beast Scripture. We almost haven’t comprehended the final state!”
Mountain Fire Hall Master said in a low voice, “If there’s none in the hall, then find outside. The inheritor of the Beast Scripture means too much. Our Mountain Fire Hall can’t miss such an opportunity!”
Linhai Immortal City, Spirit Peak.
In a long pavilion halfway up the mountain, two figures sat by the stone table and tasted the fragrant spiritual tea. More than half of the tea in the jade pot was gone. Perfected Yun Ya said gently, “Talisman Master Shen looks worried, it seems like it’s hard to make a choice these days!”
Shen Ping smiled helplessly. “Senior Yun Ya is wise.” He took a sip of the spiritual tea. He stood up and looked at the beautiful scenery of the Spirit Peak that was surrounded by clouds not far away. Fie said softly, “Although the skills and foundations of the various palaces at the headquarters are different, some of the conditions promised are really tempting. I don’t know what to choose for a moment!”
Perfected Yun Ya stood up and stood beside Shen Ping. His lips moved slightly as he sent a voice transmission, “Talisman Master Shen, you’re hesitating about Mountain Fire Hall, right?”
Shen Ping nodded. He looked straight ahead. “Senior Yun Ya and Perfected Pei have done me a favor. Logically speaking, I should choose the Mountain Fire Hall. However, Perfected Pei has mentioned some situations in the hall. If I join the Mountain Fire Hall, there will inevitably be disputes in the future.”
When Perfected Yun Ya heard that, he could not help but sigh in his heart. “It’s the same for the various halls. Cultivators look indifferent, but they’re actually not much different from mortals. Once they form a faction, it’s common for them to fight for resources. According to Talisman Master Shen’s character, the Sword Hall is the most suitable for you.”
Shen Ping shook his head. “The Sword Hall is sincerely united, but compared to trouble, I don’t like killing and fighting even more. Sword cultivators are quite sharp, and it’s not a place for me to cultivate.”
Swoosh.
As the two of them were talking, Hall Master Dan Hai and Perfected Yu appeared. “Talisman Master Shen, if you choose my Dan Hai Hall, no matter what needs you have, my Dan Hai Hall can agree!” Hall Master Dan Hal’s voice carried a trace of urgency. He looked at Perfected Yu.
Perfected Yu’s mouth twitched as he slowly said, “Talisman Master Shen, my daughter, Qingling, is also in the hall. You’re in the same batch as her, and your age is similar. At that time, you can exchange cultivation insights. I believe it will definitely be helpful to each other’s skills.”
Shen Ping was stunned.
Before he could react, two more figures appeared in the pavilion. Hall Master Huayun’s indifferent face actually had a trace of anxiety at this moment. “Talisman Master Shen, as long as you join my Huayun Hall, you can mobilize all the resources in the hall at will!”
Perfected Yun Ya, who was standing on Shen Ping’s left, could not help but widen his eyes. These words shocked him so much that his thoughts stopped for a moment. Only Hall Masters of the Hall-level factions could mobilize resources at will.
No matter how outstanding Shen Ping was, he was only a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. He still needed a lot of time to grow. Hall Master Huayun actually gave him the treatment of a Hall Master. It was simply unbelievable.
“Talisman Master Shen, you should join me…”
Not long after Hall Master Huayun’s voice fell, many figures flashed to the pavilion and surrounded Shen Ping in the middle. All of them raised conditions that almost made them give up their position as the Hall Master.
Pei Huoyu was dumbfounded when she saw this. In her eyes, Hall Master level cultivators had always been indifferent. They were powerful cultivators who did not care about joy or sorrow. Their status was high and their status was extraordinary. Even when they came to recruit Shen Ping this time, they each held their own status. After raising the conditions, they stayed in the pavilion room and closed their eyes to rest. They did not show any eagerness.
But at this moment, these Hall Masters actually fought over each other.
Buzz-
Amidst the shock, Pei Huoyu and Perfected Yun Ya’s identity jade tokens vibrated at the same time. The two of them hurriedly sent their divine senses in.
“Yun Ya, Huoyu, inform Talisman Master Shen quickly that as long as he’s willing to join our Mountain Fire Hall, the hall can agree to any condition, including nurturing his wife, concubine, and Dao companions!”
Upon hearing this message, Pei Huoyu and Perfected Yun Ya were stunned on the spot.
“Hall Masters, I can already feel your sincerity. However, this matter is very important. Can you give me a few days to return to my residence and think about it?” After Shen Ping came back to his senses, he realized that something was wrong. Previously, these Hall Master-level experts were not so anxious. Moreover, most of them were only nurturing him and did not involve his wife, concubine, and Dao companions. However, at this moment, it seemed to be different.
What exactly had changed? He really wanted to know.
“That’s how it should be. Then we’ll wait here for Talisman Master Shen’s reply.” Hall Master Huayun, Hall Master Dan Hai, and dozens of other Hall Masters smiled and said. Their attitude was very amiable, and it even made people feel like they were bathing in a spring breeze.
After Shen Ping bade farewell to Pei Huoyu, he immediately stepped onto the cloud boat and returned to the entrance of the Linhai Immortal City. He rode into the Cloud Beast Carriage. He took a few deep breaths and looked at Pei Huoyu, who was still in shock. He asked in a low voice, “Perfected Pei, can you ask your master if there are any changes at the headquarters?”
Only then did Pei Huoyu react. She hurriedly took out her identity jade token and sent a message to her master. Soon, she could not help but be stunned again after hearing the response from the jade token..
