Skill Jade Talisman

The Golden Winged Corpse King's words clearly acknowledged Zhuge Xiang's strength. In the Cultivation World, there is only one way to gain respect and be respected: strength. You must use your strength to impress others.

Although the Golden Winged Corpse King favored Zhuge Xiang back then, his strength was too weak, and when they met again, he didn't even remember who he was. But today, the strength that Zhuge Xiang displayed has even made the Golden Winged Corpse King take notice, and he said he will definitely remember Zhuge Xiang.

The Golden Winged Corpse King left, and the Three Great Imperial Preceptors made no attempt to stop him. They knew that with the Golden Winged Corpse King's strength, not only could they not stop him, but even if they could, they would pay a terrible price. Therefore, they could only watch as the Golden Winged Corpse King swaggered away.

"When did such a powerful being appear? It seems that the dynasty will be in turmoil from now on," the white- Childlike Face and Crane-White Hair White National Teacher muttered to himself as he watched the Golden Winged Corpse King easily Space Rend and disappear. Such cultivation is truly unparalleled in the universe.

Regardless of the circumstances, whether it was Wu Zhao's National Destiny, Zhuge Xiang's Heavenly Demon Zen Sound, or the Golden Winged Corpse King's strength, all of these things are in the past. The three Imperial Preceptor, Bai, Hu, and Niu, landed and came before the Second Prince Li Buling, saying, "We three arrived late to rescue you. Is Your Prince unharmed?"

"The three Imperial Preceptor arrived just in time. If they had been any later, my father might have had to hold a funeral for me," Li Buling said, his face showing the lingering fear of surviving a close call.

"Fellow Cultivator, upon learning of the upheaval at the Heaven-Piercing Tower, the three of us were ordered by His Your Majesty to come to the rescue. We arrived a little late, resulting in the loss of countless Elite, which is our fault..." The White National Teacher, who was at the head of the group, spoke, his face Childlike Face and Crane-White Hair, yet his words were humble and polite.

"You flatter me, Imperial Preceptor," many Cultivator hurriedly said upon hearing this. Although they had indeed arrived late, they had at least been rescued. As for the deaths of the others? These people didn't care.

The conversation between the Imperial Preceptor and the other Cultivator made Zhuge Xiang secretly sigh. The Great Tang Dynasty truly was a land of propriety. The Imperial Preceptor, a powerful cultivator at the Void Returning Stage, had already done a great service by rescuing people, and he even showed some humility. Such a thing would be impossible to see in the Great Qin Empire.

"Fire Control King, although you have sincerely repented, the judgment of your crimes still needs His Your Majesty's personal decision. I hope you will not make things difficult for us..." After humbly addressing the hundreds of Cultivators, the White National Teacher walked up to Fire Control King, Ming Yan, and spoke, clearly intending to take Ming Yan back to the Great Tang Dynasty for trial.

"I have no objection. One should atone for one's own sins," Ming Yan replied, head bowed.

"Your Majesty, no! These humans are cruel! You mustn't leave! We'll fight them to the death!" Upon hearing that Ming Yan had actually voluntarily been taken to be judged by this human Cultivator, the thousands of the Fire Control Tribe were horrified and cried out to Ming Yan.

"My friends, as the king of the Fire Control Tribe, I have failed to lead you to prosperity, which is my sin. But I was blinded by hatred, and this hatred has spread to you, which is even more of my sin. I must atone for my sins. If I survive, it is out of human mercy. If I die, it is also to atone for my sins. If you still consider me your king, I hope you will not perpetuate this hatred..."

Seeing that the thousands of the Fire Control Tribe were about to lose control of their emotions and descend into chaos again, Ming Yan stepped forward and addressed Fire Control Tribe People.

"Three Imperial Preceptor, what will become of him after he's been taken back?" Upon hearing Ming Yan's words, Zhuge Xiang stepped forward and asked the three Imperial Preceptor.

Ultimately, Ming Yan is also due to my Heavenly Demon Zen Sound. Although we were once enemies, there was no real hatred between us. If he is eventually killed by the Emperor of the Great Tang Dynasty, it will be because of me.

"Young brother, how could we possibly know His Your Majesty's decision..." Hu Xian'er said to Zhuge Xiang with a charming smile on her face.

As powerful beings at the Void Returning Stage, they addressed Zhuge Xiang as "little brother," demonstrating the high regard in which Zhuge Xiang held in their hearts. Although Zhuge Xiang's cultivation was only at the True Essence Realm, his strength was Human Heart. What if he were to reach the Void Returning Stage in the future? He would be a future peerless powerhouse.

"That's right. Although we are the Imperial Preceptor, we never overstep our authority in matters of state, let alone interfere with His Your Majesty's decisions," Niu Dali said with a somewhat troubled expression on his rugged face.

"Young brother, since you are interested in this Fire Control King, why don't you come with us to the Imperial Palace?" The White National Teacher extended an invitation to Zhuge Xiang. As he spoke, he glanced at the dashing Wu Zhao beside him and said, "And this young lady, would you be interested in going to the Imperial Palace?"

"My benefactor, you don't need to worry about me anymore. You have guided me and enlightened me. I can never repay your kindness," Ming Yan Zhuge Xiang said to Zhuge Xiang with tears of gratitude on his face.

"Alright, then I'll go to the Imperial Palace," Zhuge Xiang nodded, accepting the invitation from the White National Teacher.

Zhuge Xiang's primary purpose in coming to the Great Tang Dynasty to help Lu Yuling find treasures to enhance her cultivation was secondary. His main objective was to fulfill Bai Qi's mission, which concerned the National Fortune of the Great Tang Dynasty. Therefore, it was appropriate for him to take this opportunity to visit the Imperial Palace.

The passage out of the Heaven-Piercing Tower was opened, and the Cultivator left one by one. Although the crisis at the Heaven-Piercing Tower been averted, few of them were willing to stay any longer, still shaken by the experience. Led by the three Imperial Preceptor, Zhuge Xiang and the others boarded a huge Warships and flew towards the Imperial Palace of the Great Tang Empire.

The enormous Warships was practically a small city; it could easily hold tens of thousands of people without feeling crowded. Compared to this Warships, the so-called Asura Warship was like an adult compared to an infant. It truly lived up to its reputation as Warships of a large nation, far beyond what a single Sect could compare to.

On the Warships, Zhuge Xiang and the others naturally stayed together. Besides Zhuge Xiang, there were also Wu Zhao, Mo Lingna, and Lu Yuling.

However, after Li Zhi left the Heaven-Piercing Tower, he was sent home by the Imperial Preceptor, so he did not follow. And when the Mad Lion Tie Zhan went to the Imperial Palace, he was not allowed to accompany him either.

"Ming Yan, what is the significance of that Cloth Doll to you?" Inside the Warships, Zhuge Xiang had no spoils of war and didn't need to sort them out. He looked at Ming Yan, who was sitting alone in the corner, and walked over to ask.

On one hand, Zhuge Xiang was genuinely curious; on the other hand, Zhuge Xiang still had a task to complete.

"Since my benefactor wants to know, I might as well tell you," Ming Yan said calmly when the Cloth Doll was mentioned again. He then recounted the story of the Cloth Doll to Zhuge Xiang in great detail.

The Cloth Doll was nothing special, but to Ming Yan, it was his deceased son's beloved toy and companion.

"I see..." Upon hearing Ming Yan's explanation, Zhuge Xiang suddenly understood. His cultivation was about to break through to the Void Returning Stage. Being hunted down by human Cultivator was one thing, but even his wife and children had died? No wonder Ming Yan had such a strong hatred.

This also indirectly proves the terrifying power of the Heavenly Demon Zen Sound, which can forcibly eliminate the demonic thoughts in the target's heart and convert them? This Heavenly Demon Zen Sound is just too terrifying!

"Ding! Completed the follow-up to the 'Cloth Doll' quest. Level increased by 1. Skill Jade Talisman obtained."

"Ding! Level up, gained 1 Skill Point, current cultivation level is True Essence Realm Fifth Layer".

The system notification sounded in Zhuge Xiang's mind. With the notification, Zhuge Xiang's cultivation level broke through again, and the mission also rewarded Zhuge Xiang with a Dao Item called a Skill Jade Talisman.

As Zhuge Xiang opened the Bag Space, a semi-illusory package interface appeared before him, visible only to him. Sure enough, there was an extra jade talisman in the package. This transparent jade talisman looked like an inscription. As Zhuge Xiang focused his gaze, the information on the Zhuge Xiang also appeared before his eyes.

Skill Jade Talisman (Special Consumable): Randomly upgrades the level of one Skill or Cultivation Technique.

It can upgrade a Skill or Cultivation Technique? This can be used as an extra Skill Point, which is really good. For example, Zhuge Xiang's Demon Luo Scripture is currently only at Second Layer. If it can be upgraded to Third Layer, its power will be greatly enhanced. However, the upgrade of Skill Jade Talisman is random and cannot be controlled by oneself.

Looking at the Skill Jade Talisman, Zhuge Xiang frowned, then turned around and walked to Mo Lingna's side. He took out the Skill Jade Talisman and handed it to her. Unlike him, Mo Lingna's only Cultivation Technique was the Nine Beast Forbidden Canon. What was supposed to be randomness became certainty for her.

"Husband, what is this? It's so beautiful..." Mo Lingna reached out and took the Skill Jade Talisman that Zhuge Xiang handed her. Her face was full of joy. As long as it was a gift from Zhuge Xiang, no matter what it was, she was very happy.

"Skill Jade Talisman, a special treasure, should be able to elevate your Nine Beast Forbidden Canon to another level," Zhuge Xiang replied. This Skill Jade Talisman was far more effective in Mo Lingna's hands than in his own.

"My husband is so good to me..." The effect of the Skill Jade Talisman startled Mo Lingna, but she couldn't refuse something Zhuge Xiang had given her. With a face full of joy and happiness, she put away the Skill Jade Talisman.

"We've arrived..." At the same time, Imperial Preceptor Niu spoke, and the gigantic, castle-like Warships had reached Chang'an City of the Great Tang Dynasty! (To be continued...)
