Just then, Mi Xiaojing suddenly felt a tightness on his forehead, and then he discovered that the ancient escape talisman had shrunk considerably. He couldn’t help but find a bronze mirror. This sight made him feel less uncomfortable.
Because the ancient escape talisman had shrunk to the size of a fingernail, and the treasure light on the surface gradually disappeared. At first glance, it looked like a scar, only this scar was rather delicate, shaped like a maple leaf.
Touching his forehead, Mi Xiaojing felt a slight bulge, but other than that, he didn’t feel anything else.
After carefully experiencing it for a while, Mi Xiaojing’s mind moved slightly, and in an instant, he left the backyard and came outside the courtyard. In his perception, it was just a flash, and the surrounding scenery had all changed.
This situation made Mi Xiaojing feel a bit dazed. His mind moved again, and in an instant, he returned to his original place.
Yong Ji just happened to see Mi Xiaojing suddenly disappear, and then reappear in the same place. He couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, “Eh, teleportation?”
Short-distance teleportation is a capability only those at the Elemental Infant stage possess. Even Yong Ji himself didn’t have such ability. He immediately realized that this was the effect of the escape talisman, and he couldn’t think of the talisman having such power.
Yong Ji realized that Mi Xiaojing had found a treasure. An escape talisman capable of teleportation was definitely not an ordinary talisman!
After thinking for a moment, when he went to the treasure house, he was focused on spirit swords. As for this escape talisman, he only glanced at it and didn’t take it to heart. He didn’t expect this talisman to be so good.
Yong Ji came to Mi Xiaojing’s side and asked, “Is it the teleportation of the escape talisman?”
Mi Xiaojing replied, “Yes, it’s the talisman.”
Yong Ji couldn’t help but praise, “What a smart choice.” From the initial disagreement to the current admiration, he realized that Mi Xiaojing’s choice was the most correct. If he hadn’t chosen the spirit sword but this talisman, the effect should also be very good.
Teleportation during a battle, whether used for attack or escape, is a very good skill.
However, even if Yong Ji were to choose again, he would still choose the spirit sword. He likes to fight, likes to be strong, and escape is not his style.
Mi Xiaojing tested it a few more times and was more and more satisfied with this talisman. However, there was one function he didn’t try, which was long-distance escape. This required the consumption of a large amount of energy stored in the talisman.
This time, filling the talisman with energy consumed three of his silver-patterned Cultivating Essence Pills and a lot of Starry Sky power, which made him a bit scared.
In order to break through to the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment stage, Mi Xiaojing had been constantly accumulating power recently. But after the talisman was sealed on his forehead, it would occasionally absorb his power, which made him a bit troubled. Fortunately, he was not in a hurry. Even if he couldn’t break through temporarily, he believed that with the increase in cultivation time, breakthrough would be a matter of course.
The more difficult part was after reaching the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment stage, if he wanted to break through to the Golden Elixir stage, he would need some special means. That was what made Mi Xiaojing headache.
However, for now, he couldn’t care about that much. Seeing that the Vast Gold Sect was about to attack, and the Sword Heart Sect’s mountain protection formation couldn’t function, if the Vast Gold Sect invited more helpers, who knew what would happen.
Mi Xiaojing had no loyalty to the Sword Heart Sect. This was just a temporary place for him to stay. Once the sect was broken, he would definitely run away. At that time, it might be a vast sky and he could travel everywhere.
Of course, Mi Xiaojing was also very clear in his heart that once he left the sect, the outside world would definitely not be easy to mix in. At that time, he would have to rely on himself for everything. If his strength was not enough, he might be annihilated in the Cultivation World, silently, just like the Western Evolutionary Sect.
In recent days, Mi Xiaojing had been nervously cultivating. In his spare time, he began to organize his equipment. Once the opponent attacked, having sufficient preparation would allow him to respond better.
There was a Mantra Image of a death substitute on the Heart Tower. Whether it could substitute for death or not, Mi Xiaojing himself was not clear. In addition, there was a copy of the Mantra of the Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture. The seven pages of the Pill Scripture were glowing with a faint light, like seven screens, revolving around the death substitute.
A thunder sword floated above the head of the death substitute. This sword had been nurtured for a good period of time, and its quality had improved a bit. Although it still needed more time, it had already revealed its extraordinary potential.
Eighteen prayer beads also revolved around the death substitute. In fact, whether it was the Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture, the prayer beads, or the thunder sword, they all revolved around the Heart Tower, or to be precise, they revolved around the Mantra Banner. In other words, it was the Mantra Banner that was nurturing these treasures.
There was also the ancient escape talisman on his forehead and the Green Wood Array in his ring.
This was Mi Xiaojing’s current foundation. Besides this, there were some Spirit Stones, Spirit Pills, and talisman materials.
After a brief check, Mi Xiaojing was very satisfied. He had not been lazy in the sect over the years and had finally saved up a not-so-rich but sufficient foundation to equip himself. Each treasure contained his hard work.
Mi Xiaojing had initially armed himself. Both his cultivation level and strength had grown significantly. He was no longer the little Ascension cultivator who had just been caught by the Sword Heart Sect.
Not only his own strength, but Mi Xiaojing also possessed a superb alchemy skill. With this skill, whether he stayed in the sect, traveled outside, or became a rogue cultivator, it would be his biggest reliance.
By using alchemy, he could live a very comfortable life in the Cultivation World.
Yong Ji had already taken the spirit sword into his body and nurtured it with his Golden Elixir. He was very satisfied with this Qianyang sword. A medium-grade spirit sword, not to mention a cultivator at the Golden Elixir stage, even those at the Elemental Infant stage might not have it. He treasured it so much that he had been nurturing it with his true essence these days.
One day, Yong Ji received a notice from the elder and immediately took Mi Xiaojing to the sect’s main hall.
In the main hall sat Yu Hong, Mo Chentian, Mu Hengyuan, and the Azure Descent Immortal Maiden. The four people with the highest status in the sect were all present, along with a group of cultivators at the Golden Elixir stage.
When Yong Ji and Mi Xiaojing arrived, some of the Golden Elixir stage cultivators had already left one after another. Mi Xiaojing heard Sect Leader Mo Chentian assigning tasks.
Yong Ji naturally stood next to Yu Hong, and Mi Xiaojing also followed and stood aside. Here, he had no right to speak and could only watch quietly.Mi Xiaojing discovered that the task assigned by the sect this time was to hold onto Nine Peaks and One Mountain, while all other places were completely abandoned, such as the various estates at the foot of the mountain, all of which were in a state of abandonment.
All the cultivators were arranged on Nine Peaks and One Mountain, while the mortals were still left in the estates. Of course, there were also some cultivators who would take their families to Nine Peaks and One Mountain, after all, only there were defensive formations.
The Mountain Protection Great Sword Formation could still be activated, but it was no longer able to stop the opponents. This was clear to several Elemental Infant stage elders, which is why they made such a decision.
The experts invited by the Heart Sect were also distributed together. They were basically Foundation Establishment stage cultivators. The Elemental Infant stage experts they could invite were only Yin Jin and Brahman Sa. They were now cultivating in seclusion behind the main hall, ready to go out and fight at any time.
In the first month of the new book’s release, I’m grateful for such good results, thanks to everyone’s strong support all along!!
