Chapter 310 - 310: The Strongest Golden Core (2)

“Hall A^aster, 1 wonder how 1 can condense a Golden Core with more than six patterns?” He asked respectfully.
Hall Master Shan Huo’s face twitched, but he looked at Shen Ping with satisfaction. Under his earnest guidance, the other party was still indifferent. Clearly, he was not someone who would bite off more than he could chew.
“Pill Worm Spirit Flower, Stone Beast Essence, Moon Crystal… There are a total of 18 restricted-level resources. They are concocted into core powder using a special method. Then, you are to soak in medicinal baths to polish the foundational magic power in your body until your magic power is truly full. Then, you enter the Beast Spirit Pool to form your core. The lowest is a seven-mark Golden Core!
“These resources are incomparably precious. Only Class A cores in the headquarters of the True Treasure Pavilion can gather those resources. Talisman Master Shen is different. The headquarters has already sent a message that restricted resources are unlimited for you. You also have the opportunity to enter the Beast Spirit Pool.
“Therefore, what Talisman Master Shen needs to do is not condense seven patterns, but better eight patterns, or even nine patterns!”
Shen Ping listened attentively. In the list of resources he handed to Deacon Wang, there were only three of these 18 types. Now, it seemed that Deacon Wang’s suggestion was indeed very useful.
“I’ll apply to the main hall later. However, it’s quite tiring to refine these restricted resources into core powder. According to the previous situation, Talisman Master Shen has to wait for more than half a year. There’s also the application for the Beast Spirit Pool. It will take some time, so Talisman Master Shen, you can just wait patiently when you return.” Hall Master Shan Huo’s voice continued.
Shen Ping nodded and said, “Yes, Hall Master.”
Before he left, Hall Master Shan Huo asked about the cultivation of the Spirit Return Technique. Shen Ping only said that there was some progress. Hall Master Shan Huo did not ask further. When Shen Ping turned around and left the hall, he hesitated and turned around. He asked respectfully, “Hall Master, 1 have always had doubts in my heart.”
“Go ahead.”
“What is the strange beast of the True Treasure Pavilion?”
He had seen that huge creature in his sea of consciousness. The Life Divine Talisman and the Life Divine Puppet had even condensed a clear outline of a strange beast. However, Shen Ping had never seen this form in the jade slips of the demon beasts of the five continents and four seas.
Moreover, he had never heard of the jagged rocks, swamp beasts, strange snake beasts, and so on in the trial assessment space, including the mountain monsters he had seen in Luo Qing’s hometown.
Even the treasure vault of the True Treasure Pavilion did not have any records.
That was one thing.
Most importantly, the various situations derived from the headquarters of the True Treasure Pavilion because of strange beasts revealed strangeness everywhere. They seemed to be incompatible with the cultivation of the sects and families in the five continents and four seas.
Although they mainly nurtured cultivation geniuses, the way they nurtured them was different from other sects. Ordinary talismans, puppets, medicinal pills, array formations, and so on were no longer important in the True Treasure Pavilion.
Other than that, Shen Ping was also puzzled about the True Treasure Pavilion’s treasure vault and restricted resources. There were many rare items that other top sects didn’t have. Forget about the magic treasures. Extremely rare treasures like the Spirit Channeling Ancient Treasure could actually be exchanged with contribution points.
It was unbelievable.
Even if the True Treasure Pavilion was a top faction that spanned the five continents and four seas and had branches stationed in almost every remote area, it should not be so rich.
And the strange beast was the root cause of these differences.
The hall instantly fell silent.
A few breaths later, Hall Master Shan Huo’s slightly sighing voice echoed. “1 don’t know what a strange beast is, and I’ve never seen a real strange beast. It’s a demon beast that exceeds our understanding, or rather, a life form. Talisman Master Shen, I once had the same doubts as you, but unfortunately, no one in the entire headquarters of the True Treasure Pavilion knows. Even the Lord of the Main Hall doesn’t know.”
Shen Ping was stunned. He did not expect that even a late-stage Divine Transformation expert like Hall Master Shan Huo did not know. Moreover, the stronger main hall didn’t know either.
“If you want to know, then become the inheritor of the Beast Scripture!”
Until Shen Ping walked out of the Mountain Great Hall, Hall Master Shan Huo’s faint sigh still lingered in her ears. He already understood in his heart. In the True Treasure Pavilion, perhaps only the Head Hall Master knew about the strange beast.
In the blink of an eye, another half a month passed.
According to the Wei Kingdom, it was already October in the Zhongsheng Continent. However, the climate here was still as warm as spring and the scenery was pleasant. The Spirit Peak Mountain Range was emerald green, as if the four-year environment could not affect this place at all.
Dan Hai Hall.
The guests lived in a single courtyard.
Qu Wan stood in the quiet room with a frown. “Holy Maiden, the exchange between the other halls is coming to an end, but the Mountain Fire Hall and the Dan Hai Hall haven’t informed us for a long time. If we continue to wait, there might be many accidents.”
Holy Maiden Yuelian’s face covered her fair face. Her voice was as cold as a lotus. “Be patient. As long as we’re still in the True Treasure Pavilion, there’s a chance. There must be something important for the two halls to delay. We don’t have to ask. We just have to cultivate here—” Before she could finish, she frowned slightly. She took out the jade token. After her divine sense permeated it, her expression suddenly changed.
“Holy Maiden, what happened?” Qu Wan quickly asked.
The Holy Maiden suddenly stood up. “Five minutes ago, Spring Garden suddenly attacked two large Level 6 mineral veins of the Tai Yan Sect!”
“What? This… How dare Spring Garden?” Qu Wan’s face was filled with disbelief. “In the Zhongsheng Continent, although Spring Garden spans five continents and four seas like the True Treasure Pavilion, in terms of foundation, Spring Garden is far inferior to the other top factions. They are more involved in that kind of filth and actually dare to take the initiative to attack the Tai Yan Sect!”
The Holy Maiden shook her head, “The two large mineral veins of the Tai Yan Sect have already been lost. This undoubtedly means that Spring Garden is definitely not simple. Before we came to communicate, the sect master had told me that in the entire five continents and four seas, Spring Garden and the True Treasure Pavilion are the two factions that have existed the longest. It’s precisely because of this that they span almost every region of the five continents and four seas. However, my Moon Lotus Holy Sect, the Tai Yan Sect, and many other sects can only affect the Cave Division area. It’s difficult to affect anything further! From the looks of it, Sect Master’s worries are right.”
She sat cross-legged on the mat again and her expression returned to calm. She instructed, “Elder Qu, no matter what happens in the Zhongsheng Continent, it has nothing to do with us. Don’t forget our goal this time. Over the years, many of our Moon Lotus Holy Sect’s disciples have infiltrated the True Treasure Pavilion, but none of them have really come into contact with the core of the True Treasure Pavilion. This time, the opportunity to inherit the Beast Scripture has appeared again. Our Moon Lotus Holy Sect can’t miss this opportunity!”
“Yes, Holy Maiden.”
Fire Spirit Hall.
In the bedroom, under the bright crystal lamp.
Shen Ping stood in front of the jade table and outlined a moving and beautiful painting. He used the brush unique to the South Sea to continuously draw the outline of the pale tiger roar and its roar under the moonlit night.
However, the paintbrush was too black. As a result, after the pale tiger roar spread out, crystal clear water gradually seeped out and dripped along the painting to the floor. Until the room was filled with a strange ink smell, the roaring diagram was finally outlined.
A moment later, a figure covered in light armor sat upright on the jade chair. Pei Huoyu’s face was still rosy. She sipped her spirit tea and glanced at Shen Ping, who was walking over. She could not help but say, “Fellow Daoist Shen, don’t be too obsessed. Cultivation is the most important. If you didn’t say that you were worried about the pressure of cultivation, I definitely wouldn’t let you
H
Shen Ping smiled and hugged her thin waist. “Why isn’t Perfected Pei continuing?”
Pei Huoyu secretly rolled her eyes. After half a month of sex, she already had the ability to resist Shen Ping’s various words. She immediately changed the topic and said, “Fellow Daoist Shen, it’s been more than a month since you started cultivating the Spirit Return Technique. If you have any problems, you have to inform me in time.”
Speaking of this, her valiant face turned serious. “You didn’t spend too much time comprehending the second and third volumes of the Talisman Beast Scripture, but you’ve already cultivated the fourth volume for more than a month. If you continue to delay, I’m afraid you’ll have inner demons.”
Shen Ping’s broad palm moved along the Great Dao. When he felt the obstruction, he could not help but smile and say, “Don’t worry, I have some comprehension of the Spirit Return Technique.”
Pei Huoyu frowned. “Your magic powers and aura haven’t even changed. How can you comprehend anything?”
“And if there is? Can you let me explore the back?”
