He Qingge listened to Yuan Dao’s instructions and went to find the sect master.
Relying on his token, he arrived in front of the sect master unimpeded.
He Qingge looked up and felt his eyes being pierced by a sharp sword.
The sect master was like an incomparably sharp sword.
Could this be the sword energy that Elder Yuan Dao was talking about?
After getting used to this sharp feeling, He Qingge realized that the person standing in front of him was actually a woman. She was dressed in white and looked quite elegant.
Her sword-like eyes sparkled with starlight, and her eyebrows were like sharp swords, making her entire face look even more heroic.
She held a long sword in her hand. The sword was in its sheath, and one could not see much of it.
There was a wine pot hanging from her waist.
“You must be Little Uncle-Master!” The sect master said calmly.
“I’m He Qingge!”
“Why are you looking for me?”
He Qingge told her about the matter simply.
“You want a high-tier pet cub?”
“Yes.”
“Do you have any special needs?”
“I hope its cultivation speed is fast.”
“I can help you with this matter, but on one condition.”
“What condition?”
“Do you know about the phenomenon you caused a few years ago?”
“I do.”
“That’s good. This matter started because of you.”
“What happened?”
The sect master replied, “The phenomenon that you triggered basically means that all the major powers know that the Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace has a peerless genius. Every peak major power has sent people to challenge the Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace.
“The real purpose is to find out who caused the phenomenon.
“The Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace naturally won’t reject such a challenge. Not only must we win, we must win beautifully.
“Therefore, I hope that you can participate in the challenges in the Foundation Establishment Realm and not lose a single match. You must show the glory of the Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace and clear our name.
“The Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace isn’t an entity anyone can provoke.”
“If they find out that I was the one who caused the phenomenon, they wouldn’t assassinate me, would they?” He Qingge asked carefully. “Don’t worry about that. I’ll naturally protect you.” “That means there will be assassination attempts.” “This is a matter of probability.”
He Qingge was silent, feeling a little conflicted.
As long as he agreed, he would be able to obtain a high-tier pet cub.
If he agreed, there was a chance he might not be able to win all the challenges and he even might be assassinated.
After a short moment of thought, he was ready to agree.
So what if there was an assassination attempt? He could just hide in the sect and not go out.
“Alright, I agree.” He Qingge nodded.
“Alright then. You’re a true disciple of our Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace. You still have four years to prepare. The agreed time was ten years, and six years have already passed.”
After He Qingge left, he realized that he had nowhere to go.
For the past six years, he had been staying in the library.
Eating and bathing were trivial matters to immortals.
He could already achieve fasting and self-cleansing.
Even the robe he was wearing had an automatic cleaning function.
It seemed that he did not have a stable place to live.
He took out his Elder Token and looked at the map of the Nine Heavens Supreme Purity Palace, preparing to find a mountain to settle down.
“Miss Ke, I’m here to see you again.” He Qngge decided to learn how to make talismans from Xia Ke.
Since he had agreed to the sect master’s request, he naturally had to increase his winning rate. Increasing his winning rate was naturally the most stable way to fight across realms.
If he could learn how to make level-three talismans during this period of time, would he not be able to crush those at the Foundation Establishment Realm?
Moreover, it would save him from exposing his talent. Would that not be killing two birds with one stone?
This was also what He Qingge had always done.
“You came to look for me again?” Xia Ke looked at him with a smile.
He Qingge scratched the back of his head and said honestly, “Indeed, I want to learn how to create talismans from you.”
“Your talisman-making technique is already quite perfect. Your success rate for level-two talismans and rate of high-grade talismans have already surpassed mine.” Xia Ke was helpless.
“I want to learn from you how to make level-three talismans and all kinds of talismans,” He Qingge said seriously.
Xia Ke was speechless.
She felt that He Qingge was here to attack her.
He wanted to learn the method to make level-three talismans at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
If she did not know that He Qingge was able to refine level-two talismans when he was in the mortal realm, she really would not have bothered with him.
“If I teach you how to make talismans, I can be considered half your master!” Xia Ke suddenly smiled. Her smile was gentle and quiet, but it was a little like a little fox.
“Master,” He Qingge said softly.
“Alright!
“Why did you agree so easily?” Xia Ke was a little surprised.
“There’s no order in learning. Besides, I’m probably younger than you!” He Qingge rubbed his chin.
“Humph!” Xia Ke gritted her teeth when she heard him bring up age.
The age of a woman was taboo.
He Qingge, who was in the Foundation Establishment Realm, had at least 300 years left to live.
As for Xia Ke, she should be at least in the Golden Core Realm, and her lifespan should be around 800 years.
Even though she was slightly older than He Qingge, she was still young and beautiful.
He Qingge began to learn how to make talismans from Xia Ke, from the paper, to the spirit ink and spirit brush.
He had to start learning from the selection of materials to the things to take note of.
The spirit brush, spirit ink, and spirit paper required to draw a level-three talisman were completely different from the ones used for level-two talismans.
“It’s very difficult for you to draw a level-three talisman when you’re in the Foundation Establishment Realm,” Xia Ke said seriously. “It’s far more difficult than drawing a level-two talisman when you were in the Qi Refinement
Realm.”
“I’m mentally prepared,” He Qingge said calmly.
His confidence came from his own comprehension, the Great Wisdom Scripture, and the tens of thousands of scriptures he had read in the library pavilion.
His comprehension ability had increased greatly.
The reason why he chose to learn how to make level-three talismans and not level-three array formations, magic tools, and so on was because there was a prerequisite.
Talisman crafting relied on tools like spirit brushes, spirit ink, and spirit paper.
Even if his strength did not meet the requirements, he still had hope of drawing a level-three talisman.
However, if one’s cultivation had not reached the Golden Core Realm, it was basically impossible to refine a level-three medicinal pill or create a level-three magic tool.
First of all, the strength of his own alchemy fire was not enough. Even if he borrowed other alchemy fires, his own control and the support of the magic power in his body were not enough.
There was only a sliver of hope for the talisman and the formation.
Between these two choices, he naturally chose to make talismans. He knew Xia Ke, and Xia Ke was also a powerful talisman master. It was impossible to leave such a good resource unutilized.
“Swoosh!”
He Qingge controlled the spirit brush and touched the paper with spirit ink. The paper instantly burned.
Just like that, a piece of spirit paper burned in vain.
He Qingge did not know how to react.
What was going on?
