Chapter 211: Meeting

Talisman?

Mo Hua looked with one eye, and discovered there were a total of three talismans in his hand, all made of jade. Two of them had red patterns inlaid on them, with the words "Flame Talisman" written, and the other one had gold patterns inlaid on it, with the words "Gold Sword Talisman".

"Aren't these talismans quite expensive?" Mo Hua asked.

Old Zhao nodded and said, "They are quite expensive, and also not easy to buy. This kind of talisman should have the power of a Qi Refining level nine spell, with great killing power. Under the control of the Dao Court, they are generally not available through regular channels."

"Then they are too valuable, I can't take them."

"Take them, keep them for self-defense, then we'll also feel a bit more at ease." Old Zhao didn't allow Mo Hua to refuse, and patted his shoulder, "Alright, go back early. I'll beat these few pieces of trash first."

"Mm mm, Uncle Zhao, you've worked hard."

Mo Hua was also not polite, received the talismans, and walked home.

Behind him came the wails of those few Qian family cultivators, which Mo Hua just ignored.

This was their own doing, they deserved it.

After returning home, Mo Hua slightly researched the three talismans.

He still knew the basic usage of talismans, but because he was poor and couldn't afford them, he had never used them.

Using a talisman is quite simple. As long as you inject spiritual power and activate the talisman, the talisman will automatically activate and condense into a spell.

Generally, a talisman can only be used once, but its power is very great.

There are also very few restrictions on using a talisman. As long as they are within the same realm, no matter what attribute the spiritual root has, what cultivation technique is practiced, or how much spiritual power there is, anyone can activate a talisman.

With few restrictions and great power, the Dao Court controls talismans with significant killing power.

If not controlled, allowing cultivators to abuse talismans, especially when stockpiled to a certain scale, would pose a great threat to the public order of the entire cultivation world.

Therefore, it is generally difficult for ordinary cultivators to obtain several high-quality talismans.

He also didn't know where the Qian family got these few talismans from, they were really willing to spend the money ah.

Mo Hua said silently in his heart, and then felt some doubts again:

I don't seem to have done anything, just drew a few arrays, and this attracted their hatred?

They didn't go find the Foundation Establishment period Elder Yu's trouble, instead they came to find me. Aren't they bullying the weak and fearing the strong...

Qian Shunzhi and the others were beaten black and blue and thrown to the Dao Court.

Qian Hong spent some spirit stones to settle the matter and redeemed them back.

This time, Elder Yu didn't use them to extort, because he wanted to report this matter to the Dao Court, let the Dao Court know that the Qian family's intentions were improper, and at the same time, let Qian Hong act with scruples and not cross the Dao Court's bottom line.

Covert fighting is fine, but overt conflict is not.

On the surface of Tongxian City, one must obey the law and guard the regulations.

Obeying is the "law" of Dao law, and guarding is the "regulations" of the Dao Court.

Afterwards, Qian Hong still didn't give up, either bribing or hiring some external cultivators, secretly making another move.

But Elder Yu protected Mo Hua very well.

As long as these cultivators appeared in the south of the city, they would soon be discovered, and as long as they wanted to make a move, they would soon be subdued.

Then the same pattern would follow, being severely beaten once and thrown to the Dao Court.

However much Qian Hong wanted to kill Mo Hua, Elder Yu had just as many ways to protect Mo Hua.

He didn't even want Mo Hua to lose a single hair.

Qian Hong was helpless, and his repeated plans all failed.

Demon hunters hunt demons in the Great Black Mountain year-round, are more alert than ordinary cultivators, more sensitive to killing intent, more tacit in their cooperation with each other, act faster when they actually move, and strike more ruthlessly.

Moreover, they were on their own territory. If the demon hunters paid attention, they could even discover an external fly, not to mention a living person at the Qi Refining level nine.

"Or let Foundation Establishment cultivators make a move?"

Qian Hong frowned.

One is definitely not enough, at least two.

One to hold back Yu Changlin, one to secretly make a move, break through the demon hunters' blockade, and kill that little array master.

But the key is, which of the Qian family is willing to take the risk?

Everyone is scheming against each other, each seeking their own benefits, and he, this family head, doesn't want to dirty his hands either.

Violating Dao law, murdering cultivators.

This crime can be big or small. If no one pursues it, it's as if nothing happened.

Once someone pursues it, then it's not easy to say. If it is strictly according to Dao law, it might even lead to execution...

Qian Hong sighed.

At present, it is still better to hire cultivators of the Qi Refining period to make a move.

If they succeed, it's a permanent solution. Even if they don't succeed, they only lose some spirit stones.

If it still doesn't work in the end, then Foundation Establishment cultivators will have to make a move.

After all, from a long-term perspective, the threat of a genius array master cannot be underestimated.

The Qian family knew that Mo Hua was a little array master, and naturally, Master Luo also knew.

Before, he only guessed, but now that he knew, his mood was even more complex.

How could it be such a coincidence?

Immediately, he had doubts again, a first-grade array master in their teens, can their talent really be this good?

Master Luo wanted to personally verify it once.

He found Old Mr. Feng.

Old Mr. Feng had been refining pills and saving people in Tongxian City for over a hundred years, from scattered cultivators to family cultivators, regardless of whether they were poor or rich and had high or low status, he had dealt with most of them, and Master Luo was naturally no exception.

In the past, Master Luo's grandson was seriously ill, and only relied on Old Mr. Feng to cure him.

And the array in Old Mr. Feng's alchemy furnace before was also personally drawn by Master Luo to repay his kindness.

However, although that array was exquisite, it had not reached the first grade.

Old Mr. Feng was currently discussing pill formulas with other alchemists in the alchemy shop, when he heard that Master Luo was visiting.

Old Mr. Feng pondered for a moment, then asked people to invite Master Luo to the living room for tea.

The living room of the alchemy shop was specially for guests. From the gate to the living room, there were high walls separating the area along the way, so one could not see the situation inside the alchemy shop.

Some arrays were painted on the walls, which could blur the perception of divine sense. Although they could not completely shield it, unless the divine sense was too strong, one could not probe any key things.

Master Luo walked all the way, looked all the way, and sighed in his heart:

"This is indeed the handiwork of a first-grade array master ah."

Entering the living room, the two people met and exchanged a few words of greeting. Old Mr. Feng then asked:

"Master Luo's visit this time, is there something the matter?"

Master Luo hesitated for a long time, then opened his mouth: "I want to see that 'little array master'."

"Mo Hua?"

Master Luo nodded, "That's the name."

Old Mr. Feng frowned, "Just see?"

"Not to hide from the old gentleman, I have studied arrays for many years, and have never seen such a talented array master. I feel both surprised and curious, hence I want to meet him." Master Luo said.

"Unrelated to the Qian family?"

"Unrelated to the Qian family!"

Old Mr. Feng pondered without speaking.

Master Luo sincerely said: "I still hope the old gentleman will introduce me."

Old Mr. Feng hesitated for a moment and said: "Alright, wait a while for Mo Hua to come to the alchemy shop, you can see him. Please Master Luo wait a moment."

Master Luo was greatly pleased and said: "Many thanks, old gentleman."

The two people then sat in the living room, sipping tea and chatting, talking about some idle things and some past events.

After two cups of tea, Master Luo was slightly anxious, then he heard light footsteps coming, looked up, and saw a child walking in the doorway, wearing ordinary clothes and with a cute appearance.

A fair little face, lively eyebrows and eyes, eyes like stars.

Master Luo's eyes widened slightly, and he was secretly shocked in his heart.

There was a faint light above the divine court, indicating that the Sea of Consciousness was full, and the divine sense must be extraordinary.

Master Luo then had seven or eight points of certainty in his heart.

Five more done
