Chapter 415 The True Power of Inscriptionist!
'Whatever... I can use this chance to test all of my new talismans anyway... Uwehehehe...' Tang Li Xue's perfect copy rubbed her palms while sneered in excitement.
'Tsk, you kept complaining about unfairness, but I always know that you always want a chance to experiment with your newly made talismans, right?!' Tang Li Xue mocked at her perfect copy.
Tang Li Xue always busily honed her [Art of Concealment], application of her divine abilities, and improved her cultivation, while her perfect copy was always in charge of making talismans and improved her skills in runes and inscriptions.
Tang Li Xue's inscriptionist level already reached [Level 10: Apprentice] after her perfect copy made so many basic buff-type talismans until now.
Previously, Tang Li Xue never really needs to rely on other talismans than buff-type talismans since her all-round divine abilities were already more than enough to handle any dangerous situation, but right now, she finally decided to rely on the other type of talismans since she could not use all of her divine abilities here.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy took out a [Talisman of Stealthy +3] from her space pouch and stuck it on her own body. Her body immediately turned transparent as she entered an invisible state.
Usually, she could use [Ethereal Form] divine ability to turn invisible, but she did not have any other choice than to rely on this [Talisman of Stealthy +3] right now.
'All right! I will begin now! Wish me good luck, my real self! Adios~!' Tang Li Xue's perfect copy smiled mischievously as she jumped out from bushes and dashed toward the fierce battle between two teams.
'Oy! Do not forget your true objective to take the half ancient jade emblem!' Tang Li Xue worriedly warned her perfect copy again.
Well… all of the talismans were made by her perfect copy, so it made sense that her perfect copy was so excited to test its effect.
The minds of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy connected with each other, but it did not mean they would always have the same feeling too.
For example like now, Tang Li Xue never really trained her inscription skill, and she was not the one who made those new talismans. All of those were her perfect copy's job, so the real Tang Li Xue did not as enthusiastic as her perfect copy to test the effect of newly made talismans.
'Sigh… I wonder if everything is really going to be all right?! Don't get me wrong… I do not worry about my perfect copy since she can easily escape with [Shadow Flash] if the situation got worse for her. It is just… Those new talismans are actually… quite powerful and dangerous… I hope she will not overdone it' Tang Li Xue bit her lips in worry.
Tang Li Xue sat leisurely behind the bushes and gently stroke Little Loki's furry head while silently prayed for all of those poor souls that would become guinea pigs for her perfect copy's newly made talismans.
…..
…
.
'Hmm… Which newly made talismans that I need to test first to get maximum effect?' Tang Li Xue's perfect copy started to ponder for a few moments, but several sudden strayed attacks almost hit her.
Luckily, she was fast enough to step back to dodge it.
'Are they crazy or what?! Why they need to fight so fiercely to kill each other when we are still so far away from the top of Cang Yang Mountain right now. Had they never considered what if the other group of cultivators came here later to take the half of the ancient jade emblem after they fought to the death to get it? I bet almost half of them are dead by now.' Tang Li Xue's perfect copy frowned when she realized so many corpses already scattered there.
'Oh well… since they really wanted to die so badly, it would such a big shame if I did not honor their sacrifice.' The topaz blue eyes of Tang Li Xue's perfect copy glinted coldly as she took two stacks of her newly made talismans from her space pouch.
This was another difference between Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy.
Because of her experience in her previous life, Tang Li Xue's temperament was milder and merciful.
Although, her perfect copy also had those memories, but she did not experience it by herself, so the perfect copy's temperament was a bit mischievous and more ruthless than the real one.
The two stacks of the newly made talismans she took out were [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3] and [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3].
Both of them were the combination of two different runes inscribed into a single talisman.
For example [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3], was the combination of [Stealth] rune and [Explosion] rune. It made the talisman completely invisible, with the effect of a powerful explosion if triggered!
Meanwhile, [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] was the combination of [Stealth] rune and [Illusion] rune.
[Stealth] rune made this talisman completely invisible from others too, but Tang Li Xue's perfect copy strangely combined it with [Illusion] rune used for disguise?!
Invisibility and disguise might sound mismatched, but Tang Li Xue's perfect copy already had a perfect plan on how to utilize it in this kind of chaotic situation.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy slowly walked while spreading the [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3] everywhere on the grassy ground below the feet of those fighting cultivators.
Meanwhile, she secretly stuck the [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] onto the body of some cultivators that still busily fighting among themselves.
Even when she was still in her invisible state, but sometimes there would be straying attacks flying toward her, but Tang Li Xue's perfect copy easily avoid it, and sometimes she just pulled the nearby cultivators, then used them as her shield.
'Tsk, There are too many people here.
I don't even know anymore which cultivator that holds the half ancient jade emblem.' Tang Li Xue's perfect copy frowned in annoyance when she kept spreading the [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3] and sticking [Stealth Illusion Talisman +3] onto the body of nearby cultivators.
It took her a while, but she found a handsome young cultivator who was under siege by so many other cultivators while his bodyguards kept protecting him from them.
The battle to protect that handsome young cultivator against the cultivators who wants to catch him was much fiercer and bloody, so Tang Li Xue's perfect copy could deduce that the handsome young cultivator should be the one who held the half of ancient jade emblem.
Tang Li Xue stealthy approached the handsome young cultivator, and she immediately could sense the half of ancient jade emblem with her [Spirit Perception] after the distance between them were close enough.
'Eh? Why did he not store half of the ancient jade emblem into his spatial ring? Or maybe... the ancient jade emblem cannot be stored into spatial treasure like spatial ring or space pouch? This is quite troublesome. It seems I must deploy a bit reckless measure to get it.' Tang Li Xue's perfect copy thought as she secretly got more closer to the handsome young cultivator.
The cultivator beside him immediately sensed something and stared at the invisible Tang Li Xue's perfect copy in suspicion.
'Oh, crap! There is a cultivator with the sharp [Spirit Perception] beside him! It seems he already prepared the countermeasure to prevent invisible enemies from closing to him.' Tang Li Xue's perfect copy groaned in her heart.
She decided to use [Snow Dance Step] in that instant!
"Watch out! There is…" The cultivator with the sharp [Spirit Perception] shouted out loud, but Tang Li Xue already arrived right in front of him and used her Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger Claw] to grab at his neck.
CRAAAACK~!!!
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy broke his neck with her [Crouching Tiger Claw] and instantly killed him in one move.
The handsome young cultivator got frightened and startled by Tang Li Xue's perfect copy sudden appearance since she broke out from her invisible state when she used Transcendence State of [Crouching Tiger Claw] to kill the cultivator with the sharp [Spirit Perception].
"Help~!!! There is an enemy here!" The handsome young cultivator shouted out loud for help.
His bodyguards quickly turned around and found Tang Li Xue's perfect copy already stood among them.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy swiftly charged toward the handsome young cultivator with [Snow Dance Step], but several of his bodyguards already stood right in front of the handsome young cultivator to protect him.
'Damn it! They are really fast! As I already expected, their cultivation level is far above mine. They might be high-rank Acupuncture Opening Stage Cultivators.' Tang Li Xue's perfect copy complained in frustration, but she still did not give up and used her Transcendence State of [Drifting Cloud Palms] without any hesitation.
"Kill her! Kill her immediately right now!" The handsome young cultivator shouted in panic and anger.
Three of his bodyguards charged toward Tang Li Xue and brandished the sharp saber in their hands toward her!
CLANG… CLANG… CLANG…
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy spun her palms and hit the blunt side to deflect all of their sharp sabers while step closer toward the three of them in one move.
The three bodyguards could not use their sharp sabers since Tang Li Xue was too close with them right now, so some of them decided to kick her while the other decided to hit her with his elbow.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy quickly somersault backward to dodge all of their attacks, but it also made her farther from her target, while the other weaker bodyguards already surround her from all sides.
No one realized that when she moved around to dodge and somersault backward, she was actually already spreading her [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3] everywhere below her opponents' feet.
"Sigh… Please do not blame me since all of you do not give me any other choice." Tang Li Xue's perfect copy sighed in an exaggerating manner.
"There is someone who said that art is an explosion… but for me, many explosions like fireworks are the true art, so please enjoy it to your heart content!" Tang Li Xue's perfect copy laughed mischievously while she made a hand gesture to trigger all of her [Hidden Exploding Talisman +3].
