Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint-Chapter 1425 - 255: Riding Through the Royal Capital, Witnessing the Martial Saint’s True Form
Taiji Hall.
The golden blood vanished into the yellow talisman paper, until it was completely hidden.
Then, Jiang Ning followed Xiao Wuque’s instructions and stuck the golden talisman paper on his forehead.
In a breath.
The yellow talisman paper disappeared from his brow.
"Close your eyes and concentrate, inner sight of the Spirit Platform," Xiao Wuque’s voice echoed in Jiang Ning’s ear.
Hearing this, Jiang Ning closed his eyes, letting his Heart Spirit sink within.
He saw within the Spirit Platform, above the Divine Soul, a yellow talisman paper hovering.
Jiang Ning slowly opened his eyes.
"Dongling Marquis, you saw it just now, didn’t you?" Xiao Wuque asked.
"I saw it!" Jiang Ning nodded.
Xiao Wuque said: "That Taoist Ancestor talisman paper has already imprinted your essence. In times of great crisis, it will be passively activated, transcending time and space, allowing you to instantly return to peak condition. With this item, you can ensure you remain unharmed for the duration of a cup of tea."
"This power emanating from the Taoist Ancestor level, even after the passage of time, can only be thwarted if my mentor intervenes personally, nobody else in the world today can break through it!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning felt a sudden peace of mind.
The duration of a cup of tea in absolute peak state provides plentiful time to devise numerous survival tactics against any formidable foe.
At this moment.
Another light flashed through Xiao Wuque’s hand.
As the light faded, a small white jade token appeared in Xiao Wuque’s hand.
From time to time, a silver glow flickered over the jade token, blurring the vision.
Looking at the phenomenon on the jade token, Jiang Ning’s gaze instantly sharpened.
That was the taste of space fluctuation.
"This object is a Small Shifting Talisman! Should you encounter danger, just break it, and you will be instantly transported a thousand miles away! This space-derived power, except for a select few elites, cannot be obstructed by anyone in the world today!" Xiao Wuque continued.
Then he handed the white jade token in front of Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning accepted the white jade token from Xiao Wuque’s hand, feeling instantly reassured.
With two treasures in hand, his life is doubly secured.
Thus, even while serving as the Zeshan State Patrol Envoy, crises wouldn’t be overly daunting.
Moreover, he is confident he can quickly ascend into the ranks of the First Grade Mixed Elemental Realm.
By then, joining the ranks of the world’s elite would pose no fear to him.
"Dongling Marquis, these two items used together are enough to ensure survival and a rapid escape. Would you say this is sincere enough?" Xiao Wuque asked.
"Thank you, Master Xiao!" Jiang Ning bowed in gratitude.
The jade token in his hand flashed with light and was stored in his Jiezhi Leaf.
"I have another matter to discuss with you." Xiao Wuque added.
"Please speak, Master Xiao," Jiang Ning responded.
"My mentor wishes to meet you! Would you be interested?" Xiao Wuque inquired.
"Is it... the true self?" Jiang Ning asked.
Xiao Wuque nodded slowly.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Ning’s gaze condensed.
Not the Martial Saint Spirit Body, but the true Martial Saint, meeting the genuine Martial Saint!
After just a moment’s thought, he nodded with shining eyes.
"Of course, I am willing!"
"Well, then after you finish the parade, I’ll take you to see my mentor. He’s quite eager to meet you too!" Xiao Wuque said.
"Alright!" Jiang Ning nodded.
He had already made up his mind.
A meeting with the Martial Saint could hardly be a bad thing.
After all, they met once before.
Moreover, considering that person’s prowess, if ill intent existed toward him, he currently has no ability to resist.
After all, that person once killed Fu Yuan Saint with just two punches.
And that was merely a spirit body.
While pondering, a middle-aged man with fine facial features and long beard reaching his abdomen stepped forward.
"Dongling Marquis, please accompany me to Chongming Hall!"
"Please lead the way, Vice Minister Zhang!" Jiang Ning said.
"Please!" The elegantly featured, long-bearded Vice Minister Zhang bowed.
In a corner of the hall.
A handsome man quietly watched Jiang Ning and the minister depart.
"Little Prince, did you not say you would seize the spotlight in the court?" a nearby general asked.
"Such a young Second Grade Great Grandmaster, even if my father Beicang King were here, he wouldn’t rashly provoke him." The handsome man said indifferently.
"Is the Little Prince going to let it go just like that?" the nearby general asked.
"Not in a hurry!" The handsome man shook his head: "Once Ji Minghao faces enough difficulty, he will naturally come to me! Also, with my father Beicang King, holding military power, what woman couldn’t I obtain? Even if Ji Mingyue doesn’t belong to me now, it doesn’t mean she won’t belong to me in the future!"
"What does the Little Prince mean?" the general asked.
"Don’t be so taken with Dongling Marquis’s momentary fame, a tree standing tall in the forest is sure to be wind-kissed! He’s not only granted nobility but also serves as Zeshan State Patrol Envoy! If the Zeshan State Patrol Envoy can be ambushed once, then surely twice." The handsome man stated calmly.
Then he continued: "Not long after, his demise will come! By then, no matter which prince ascends the throne, if my father supports him, he will surely send Ji Mingyue to my residence."
Elsewhere.
Just after Jiang Ning stepped over the Taiji Hall’s threshold, his pace paused abruptly.
"Marquis, what’s the matter?" Vice Minister Zhang asked.
"Nothing!" Jiang Ning shook his head gently.
After exiting Taiji Hall, he walked several more steps.
Jiang Ning suddenly asked: "Mr. Zhang, how much do you know about Beicang King?"
Upon hearing these words, Vice Minister Zhang’s heart tightened.
After some thought, he spoke: "Beicang King and Prince Zhenbei are known as the North’s two great kings. For years, the northern Barbarians have harassed Great Xia’s northern borders, and these two princes are the towering bulwarks in the North!"
"It’s fair to say, as long as these two princes remain in power, there will be no major turmoil in the North."
