Miracle Farmer with Special Abilities-Chapter 682 - 0: Turning the Tables_1
However, just as the Holy Mother of Black Bell began to mobilize her True Yuan, a momentum she had been suppressing suddenly burst out, elevating her presence to an unprecedented level.
RUMBLE...
The terrifying sound of thunder echoed rapidly. Dark clouds appeared out of nowhere in this space, looking like a massive, oppressive mountain range.
"This is bad! The Heavenly Tribulation is coming! I haven’t broken through to the Integration Realm yet, so why has the Combined Body Tribulation arrived?" Shock filled the Holy Mother of Black Bell’s face.
Then, something even more dreadful happened.
The talisman on her chest suddenly emitted a strange power that surged into her body. The life force she had previously refined erupted completely, transforming into a torrential flood that poured into her Nascent Soul.
CRACK...
Her Nascent Soul expanded rapidly, soon ballooning to the same size as her body as it began to merge with her physical form.
"No, no, no..." The Holy Mother of Black Bell was terrified to her core, letting out a scream of unwillingness. She frantically suppressed the True Qi within her body, trying to force the expanding Nascent Soul back down into her Dantian.
"Gahahaha..."
Zhang Bin, however, let out a sinister laugh, effortlessly snatching the five fairy maidens from the Holy Mother of Black Bell’s grasp. He even took the Space Ring off her hand. With an elegant spin, he gathered up the remaining four fairy maidens and proudly retreated.
Meanwhile, the Holy Mother of Black Bell stood frozen like a fool, seemingly oblivious to Zhang Bin. She was pouring all her energy into suppressing her Nascent Soul to prevent it from breaking through to the Integration Realm. If she failed to pass the Heavenly Tribulation, she would die instantly.
All the cultivators watching were stunned. The six fairy maidens were utterly dumbfounded, their faces masks of shock and disbelief. Their hearts were filled with confusion. How had Zhang Bin managed to turn the tables? What kind of magic had he used to rescue the beauties so effortlessly?
"Zhang Dahuai, you’re so wicked," Master Xueyin said via voice transmission, a smile evident in her tone.
"Zhang Bin, you truly are incredible," Zhang Sanfeng said with open admiration.
"Gahahaha..." Zhang Bin let out an even prouder, more boastful laugh, his face radiating arrogance.
The talisman on his chest was, of course, not a Fate-Stealing Talisman. It was a Tribulation Summoning Talisman he had gotten from Gao Si, specifically designed to deal with Living Ghosts. Against a Living Ghost, one simply had to activate the talisman. It would transform into a black light and merge into the creature’s body, summoning a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation to smite the Living Ghost to death.
Against a cultivator, however, it was much more complicated; the talisman had to be placed directly on the cultivator’s body. If the cultivator had not reached Great Perfection in a certain realm, it would be useless, as no Heavenly Tribulation would be summoned. However, once a cultivator reached Great Perfection in a certain realm, the talisman became truly malicious. When applied, it would induce a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation by triggering the cultivator’s inner momentum and life force. This power could not be concealed, exposing them completely, and the Heavenly Tribulation would naturally arrive. It was like taking Viagra—there was no way to suppress it.
Of course, such a talisman was extremely precious. The Talisman Leaf used had to be at least three hundred thousand years old. Gao Si himself had paid an enormous price to acquire just one.
Now, Zhang Bin had used it on the Holy Mother of Black Bell. He didn’t regret it in the slightest, as he was certain that killing her would earn him a huge amount of merit. For him, the more merit, the better. Only with enough merit could he hope to cultivate a Dragon Body. Only then could he potentially become a titan in the Immortal Realm, powerful enough to woo the fairies of his dreams.
He had originally planned to use the pretense of healing to affix the talisman to her. But, incredibly, the Holy Mother of Black Bell was so ignorant that she had voluntarily stuck the unfamiliar talisman on herself. This was a perfect example of the saying: one can survive a disaster sent by the heavens, but not one of their own making.
Zhang Bin returned the Space Rings to the cultivators and then began channeling his True Qi to heal the five fairy maidens. He wasn’t the least bit worried about the Holy Mother of Black Bell attacking him, proceeding with the treatment so nonchalantly it was as if he were in his own home.
All the cultivators wore incredibly odd expressions. They had been expecting a bloody battle, but who knew they were just here to watch a spectacle? Of course, they remained vigilant, forming a protective circle around Zhang Bin.
Soon, Zhang Bin had completely healed the five fairy maidens. Their limbs had all grown back, exactly the same as before. However, their cultivation levels had regressed significantly. Just like the seventh fairy maiden, they were all at the Great Perfection of the Liquid State. They were all filled with relief and gratitude.
"Zhang Bin, please let us join the Taiqing Sect. We will be forever loyal to you," they pleaded, kneeling before Zhang Bin with hopeful expressions.
They knew perfectly well that the Black Bell organization was finished. The Holy Mother of Black Bell would probably die under the Heavenly Tribulation. They themselves were also sinners, having done some terrible things in the past. Compounding their troubles, they were no longer cultivators in the Nascent Soul Realm. To survive and regain their freedom, their only choice was to cling tightly to Zhang Bin’s powerful "thighs." They even cast flirtatious glances at him, as if to say, "As long as you accept us into the sect, we are yours for the taking."
Zhang Bin’s gaze swept over each of them. They were indeed rare beauties, so dazzling that his heart began to race.
"You were controlled, threatened, and deceived, which is very unfortunate. Now that you wish to turn over a new leaf, I will give you a chance... From this day forward, you are disciples of my Taiqing Sect," Zhang Bin declared righteously.
"Zhang Dahuai, the main reason is that they are all great beauties who can keep you warm at night, isn’t it?" Master Xueyin said through voice transmission, sounding annoyed. With her amazing mind-reading ability, she had naturally seen through Zhang Bin’s thoughts and called him out on them.
"Master," Zhang Bin transmitted with a sly smile, "I am accepting them into the sect because they are beautiful, it’s true, but there is another reason. I am afraid they might become another Holy Mother of Black Bell. I want to reform them and make them good people. As the saying goes, ’If I don’t enter hell, who will?’"
"Are you going to reform them in bed?" Master Xueyin retorted grumpily.
"Master, I do believe you’re jealous. Could it be you’ve actually fallen for me?" Zhang Bin said in feigned surprise.
"One more word of nonsense, and I’ll cut out your tongue," Master Xueyin glared fiercely at Zhang Bin. "I am reminding you that although they are beautiful, they are not virtuous women. You had best not sleep with them, lest you pollute your mind and body."
In the past, Zhang Bin would have surely scoffed at Master Xueyin’s words. However, ever since the Dragon Vein Elder had told him that his own impurity could contaminate the Dragon Vein, Zhang Bin realized she was right. It was a significant warning. The other cultivators surely understood this principle as well, but they wouldn’t remind him. He wasn’t their disciple, so it was up to the seniors of the Taiqing Sect to guide him. They wouldn’t meddle in others’ affairs. Master Xueyin, on the other hand, genuinely cared for him and warned him because she was worried he would make a grave mistake.
