Chapter 197: Don’t Think It’s Right (5)

Other than the Talisman Scripture, he had occasionally made Talisman Beast Diagrams over the past few days. He was surprised to discover that the Talisman Beast Diagrams he made seemed to be more alive, and the power they erupted with had increased.
However, he did not tell Perfected Pei and Perfected Yun Ya about this. If it only involved the talisman scripture and the blood of strange beasts, it was fine to say it. However, this matter concerned his foundation, so Shen Ping would not tell anyone else.
“Husband, it’s done.” Qiu Ying looked up tenderly.
Shen Ping changed into a plain brocade robe and kissed her cheek. Then, he walked out of the room and returned to the main quiet room. He opened the virtual panel. He glanced at it briefly. It landed on the wind-element mutant spiritual root column.
[Wind Spiritual Root: Heaven Grade (600,000/600,000) (Can be broken through)]
He shook his head slightly. Dual-element spiritual roots of metal and wood had always been far ahead. However, with Perfected Qiu’s various enhancements, the wind-element spiritual root gradually left the dust. Today, it was the first to reach the limit of the heaven-grade.
“Breakthrough!” He gathered his thoughts and chanted silently.
Boom.
The virtual frame kept vibrating. Dozens of breaths passed. The wind-element mutated spiritual root in Shen Ping’s body began to transform. If one’s divine sense seeped in and looked carefully, they would discover that the spiritual root had a jade-colored luster.
Buzz-
This metamorphosis lasted longer.
After five minutes, he felt the speed at which the wind-element mutant spiritual root absorbed the spiritual energy in the main quiet room suddenly increased. He activated the Qianyuan Scripture. The spiritual energy in the main quiet room gathered crazily.
In the blink of an eye, a spiritual energy vortex actually condensed and surged into his meridians and acupoints. Then, it quickly transformed through the wind-element mutant spiritual root.
And after a small cycle, it only took six hours. This speed made Shen Ping dumbfounded. This meant that he would only need a day to complete the Great Circulation Cycle. It had to be known that the increase in magic power could be clearly sensed in the Great Circulation Cycle of the Foundation Establishment realm. Although this speed was still not comparable to the enhancement of the blue strange beast blood, it was definitely unique among the Foundation Establishment cultivators in the five continents and four seas!
He took a deep breath. He quickly glanced at the virtual frame.
[Wind Spiritual Root: Jade Grade (4,108/1,200,000)]
Shen Ping could not help but look excited. The cultivation speed of the jade-grade spiritual root was so fast. If it increased and transformed again, its speed would probably be even more terrifying. It might even catch up to the enhancement of the blood of the strange beast.
One had to know that the blood of strange beasts was the core resource of the True Treasure Pavilion. This resource far exceeded any known treasure.
“My spiritual roots can continuously improve. I don’t have to worry about the lifespan of Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul. Then, I can continue to expand my meridians and increase the density of my magic power.”
Shen Ping naturally did not want to waste such a unique advantage.
Time passed quietly.
Two months later, the second reward of the True Treasure Pavilion’s Glory Ranking and the Hidden Dragon Ranking was approaching.
Shen Ping’s divine sense permeated the core jade token. Then, he pushed open the door of the rankings and entered the space. Two huge lists floated in the air. He stared at the ranking of the Hidden Dragon Ranking and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that he was still ranked second.
During this year of cultivation, although his progress in the Talisman Scripture was very fast, because they were only basic special spirit runes, his overall strength in the Talisman Dao improved very little.
The other members of the Hidden Dragon Ranking were all the same.
Even the Talisman Master Jing Yu of the Mountain Fire Hall, after advancing by leaps and bounds in the first half of the year, finally stabilized at sixth place on the Hidden Dragon Rankings and did not change much.
“There are still three days before the rewards are distributed. Don’t fall!” Previously, when he was suddenly surpassed on the last day, Shen Ping did not pay much attention to it. He was not interested in the reward for the top spot, but this time was different.
It would be fine if he fell to third place. However, if he fell to fourth place, he would not be able to exchange for the Seabeard Ginseng Leaf.
Shen Ping would enter the core jade token space to check the rankings every day after that. There was no change in the rankings till the night before the rewards were released. This made his tense mind completely relaxed.
“The new core member, Shen Ping. As your reward on the Hidden Dragon Rankings is repeated, please apply to change any restricted resources below the blue strange beast blood in time.”
After Shen Ping received a message from the core jade token, he did not hesitate to exchange it for the Seabeard Ginseng Leaf. He exited the space.
Just as he walked out of the main quiet room, Pei Huoyu stood in front of him and reminded, “Fellow Daoist Shen, you’re still second on the Hidden Dragon Rankings this time.”
Shen Ping smiled and said, “Thank you for your reminder, Senior Pei. I’ve already changed it.”
Pei Huoyu nodded and continued, “With medium-grade restricted resources like the Seabeard Ginseng Leaf, your wife and concubine’s cultivation will increase continuously in half a year. This increase is different from the increase in the blood of strange beasts. If you don’t absorb and digest it as soon as possible and adapt to the increase in spiritual energy, your foundation will be unstable in the future.
“Therefore, for the next half a year, you can bring your wife and Dao companions to the Yulin Mountain Range every day and let them fight demon beasts to accelerate the consumption and absorption of spiritual energy.”
Shen Ping nodded repeatedly and hurriedly asked, “Senior Pei, what about Yu Yan? Her spiritual power has been polished to 80%. After consuming the Seabeard Ginseng Leaf, she should be able to build her foundation quickly. Will it affect her?”
“Don’t worry.” Pei Huoyu said casually, “The body of a Foundation Establishment cultivator can withstand the excess ginseng power of the Seabeard Ginseng Leaf. You just need to meditate and cultivate diligently later on.”
The two of them chatted for a while. Shen Ping’s gaze landed on Pei Huoyu’s light armor dress.
“You don’t have to remind me of that.” Pei Huoyu said indifferently, “Since I’ve said it, I’ll do it.” She turned and walked into the quiet room. However, when she stepped through the door, a voice transmission sounded in Shen Ping’s ear. “Think about what kind of clothes you want me to change into as soon as possible..”
