Cultivation Starts from Farming-Chapter 554 - 281: Quasi-Grade 4 Talisman Legacy (Part 3)
With a surge of Spiritual Power, the spirit ship slowly ascended, slicing through the sky and flying towards the distance.
Gradually, the spirit ship became a small black dot in the sky and finally disappeared.
Afterward, the two turned and returned to the top floor of the tower.
...
Gu Yuntao and Xu Ping sat opposite each other. Gu Yuntao gently picked up the teapot and poured each a cup of Spirit Tea.
The fragrance of the tea filled the entire room.
"Friend Yan, over these days, how have you considered the matter we previously discussed?"
After taking a sip of tea, Gu Yuntao put down the teacup, wore a gentle smile on his face, and looked at Xu Ping as he asked.
"Friend Gu’s help to my family is naturally remembered in my heart."
After a moment of contemplation, Xu Ping slowly said,
"However, attacking the Seed Puppet Sect is no trivial matter and is exceedingly dangerous."
"Therefore, as long as Friend Gu is willing to reveal to me the trump card to resist the Seed Puppet Sect, and after the matter is done, hand over the Puppet Array to me, I assure you I will follow without hesitation, even risking my life."
"The trump card to resist the Seed Puppet Sect?"
Upon hearing Xu Ping’s words, Gu Yuntao’s brows immediately knitted tightly, showing obvious hesitation on his face.
The request made was indeed reasonable.
But the matter was too significant; the secrets and risks involved prevented him from revealing anything before it was accomplished.
"Sigh."
After a bout of inner struggle, Gu Yuntao finally sighed helplessly and slowly said:
"Friend Yan doesn’t know, it’s not that I don’t trust you, but this matter is too crucial. Before it’s accomplished, I dare not reveal anything!"
Upon hearing these words, Xu Ping’s brows also furrowed tightly.
Attacking the Seed Puppet Sect is no easy task, and even with his current strength, rash participation carries risks.
If he knows nothing about Gu Yuntao’s trump card against the Seed Puppet Sect and has no concrete assurance, he truly finds it hard to decide to involve himself.
"Then how can I trust you?"
A hint of questioning unconsciously mingled in Xu Ping’s tone.
He stared directly at Gu Yuntao with piercing eyes, full of scrutiny and exploration.
Faced with Xu Ping’s unreserved questioning, Gu Yuntao fell into deep contemplation.
He understood that if he couldn’t provide a satisfactory solution for Xu Ping, he might lose this crucial ally.
After some thought, Gu Yuntao lifted his gaze to meet Xu Ping’s, "Friend Yan, see if this arrangement is feasible.
"This trump card, I truly cannot disclose."
"However, I can offer you a Quasi-Fourth Rank Talisman legacy."
"As a Talisman Master, you should deeply understand the value contained within."
"Quasi-Fourth Rank Talisman legacy?"
The moment he heard this proposal, Xu Ping was startled, a hint of delight flashing in his eyes, "Friend Gu, are you serious?"
"This is absolutely true." Gu
Seeing Xu Ping’s reaction, Gu Yuntao realized the matter had a turning point, and he seized the moment, speaking earnestly,
"This Quasi-Fourth Rank Talisman legacy is indeed a generous reward for you, Friend Yan."
"Once the Seed Puppet Sect is successfully eradicated, I will surely fulfill my promise and deliver the Puppet Array to you."
Hearing these terms, Xu Ping fell into contemplation.
The Quasi-Fourth Rank Talisman legacy, in a sense, is as valuable as the Puppet Array to him!
If he acquires it, exchanging it for materials to refine a Quasi-Fourth Rank Puppet from the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons would become much easier.
Moreover, there is also the Talisman Array as a trump card!
How potent a Talisman Array composed of Quasi-Fourth Rank Talismans must be!!
During this brief silence, the atmosphere became rather tense.
Gu Yuntao quietly awaited Xu Ping’s answer.
After a while, Xu Ping slowly said, "Even with a Quasi-Fourth Rank Talisman legacy, if there’s no talisman paper to inscribe them, it all amounts to nothing, leaving one anxious without resolution."
It’s essential to know that the talisman paper required for inscribing Quasi-Fourth Rank Talismans demands exceptionally high quality, at the very least crafted from Quasi-Fourth Rank Spirit Wood or Quasi-Fourth Rank Demon Beast Hide.
Currently, Xu Ping lacks such materials, and finding them in a short time is by no means easy.
"This is simple."
Gu Yuntao smiled slightly and waved his sleeve.
Instantly, a piece of beast hide exuding menacing Evil Qi appeared in the void between them.
This piece of beast hide was dark in color, with intricate surface textures, faintly radiating strong Demonic Power fluctuations.
"This is a Quasi-Fourth Rank Demon Beast Hide. With its quality and size, producing dozens of sheets of Quasi-Fourth Rank talisman paper should not be a problem."
"If Friend Yan agrees, this Quasi-Fourth Rank Demon Beast Hide will be given to you as well."
Upon hearing this, a hint of a smile appeared on Xu Ping’s face: "Deal."
His guess was indeed correct; Gu Yuntao indeed had Quasi-Fourth Rank beast hide.
With this, he could attempt to inscribe Quasi-Fourth Rank Talismans.
"Welcome to the alliance, Friend Yan."
Hearing Xu Ping’s agreement, Gu Yuntao was overjoyed, unable to contain his excitement.
In his view, with Xu Ping’s formidable strength joining the cause, the assault on the Seed Puppet Sect had a greater chance of success.
"So, may Friend Gu hand over the Quasi-Fourth Rank Talisman legacy to me?"
Xu Ping asked with a smile, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
"Of course." Gu Yuntao nodded with a smile.
With a flick of his fingers, an azure blue jade slip shot towards Xu Ping like a meteor.
Xu Ping reached out and steadily caught the jade slip in his hand.
Then, he closed his eyes and slowly extended his Divine Sense into the jade slip.
Instantly, the densely packed information within the jade slip rushed into his Sea of Consciousness like a surging tide.
This information included the production principles, material selection, drawing techniques, and various precautions for Quasi-Fourth Rank Talismans, with every detail expounded thoroughly.
