Chapter 442: Chapter 21 Shu Mountain Turing the Topic [Seeking Monthly Ticket!]_1

Chu Liang didn’t seem to mind this.

After all, the task was simply to recreate the talisman. Reducing the input of True Qi can increase the success rate, especially for unfamiliar talismans. He naturally would sacrifice some useless power to ensure success.

If the task was demanding power, he certainly would have taken a different approach.

As for those who couldn’t understand his actions, all he could say was that they hadn’t yet grasped the charm of "test-taking".

Then Xu Ziyang stepped forward to display his own Heavenly Thunder Earth Fire Talisman.

Boom——

The power was astonishingly strong, although just slightly inferior to Jiang Yuebai’s, but that was probably due to the difference between mortal bodies and Immortal Spirit Bodies. In terms of proficiency in the Dao of Talisman, he was in no way inferior.

This round, all three of them passed the test.

Apart from Chu Liang’s talisman that was somewhat weak, the performances of the other two could be considered perfect.

"Very good." The Law-enforcement Elder praised before beginning the next round of tests.

Without saying much, he immediately released another Yellow Talisman.

A shadow of a golden-armored warrior descended from the sky, crashing into the arena with an overwhelming force and divine flames surging.

"Golden Armored Town Talisman?" Someone recognized this with amazement in their voice.

The difficulty had spiked immeasurably!

This Golden Armored Town Talisman was undoubtedly a top-grade talisman, capable of summoning a Golden Armored Immortal to eliminate evil and execute great slaughters. However, this kind of talisman that connects to the heavenly spirit was certainly not formed by just a few simple runes, its complexity can even be compared to a general Rune Array!

Looking at the three, they were all silently pondering.

It seemed that none of them had previously encountered this talisman, they were all deconstructing it in their minds!

Could they really pull this off?

But after thinking for a moment, they all resumed their writing. It seemed they had gained something.

The spectators found it hard to believe, as this kind of ability was beyond their understanding.

This time, drawing the talisman took a bit more time. When they had all finished, the audience couldn’t wait to see the outcome.

Jiang Yuebai was first. She casually released the talisman.

Boom!

A shadow of a Golden Armored Immortal descended with a loud crash!

This time compared to the original talisman launched by the Law-enforcement Elder, the power seems to have slightly decreased. It seemed that even Jiang Yuebai wasn’t all-powerful. But being able to accomplish this was already breathtaking!

The Golden Armored Immortal lasted for a while before vanishing, and the duration was more than enough.

It was then Chu Liang’s turn.

The audience, however, didn’t hold much hope for him. Considering the previous signs, a talisman with low power indicated that the ability of the creator had reached its limit, so it was also normal if he couldn’t pass this round.

But as Chu Liang released his talisman.

Whoosh——

A golden light appeared, and a golden armored godling about 5 inches tall appeared mid-air. If it weren’t for the good eyesight of the crowd, it would be hard to spot.

The little golden armored warrior swung around in the air a few times and vanished in an instant.

"..." The crowd fell eerily silent.

What was that?

A Golden Armored Divine Cub?

Not only was it small, but it also vanished quickly...

But the fact that he managed to create it was a wonder in itself.

Lastly, it was Xu Ziyang’s turn. He held up his talisman and threw it into the air.

Whoosh——

A Golden Armored Immortal appeared in mid-air, but before it could land, it shattered.

This was obviously a failure.

He shook his head slightly, but his expression was not of disappointment.

It seemed that he had anticipated this failure to some extent.

As such, he withdrew from the competition. Suddenly, only Jiang Yuebai and Chu Liang were left in the field, just like the scene replayed from the Shu Mountain Peak Conference.

Especially the two of them...

There were murmurs and chuckles around.

Chu Liang wore a faint smile. Even though his opponent was Senior Sister Jiang, he wouldn’t concede even the slightest. A competition demanded making an all-out effort, which in his view, was the highest respect for the opponent.

Jiang Yuebai thought the same. Even though her opponent was Chu Liang, her craving for victory was even more intense.

The Law-enforcement Elder looked at the two and said, "It seems the candidate for this time will be chosen from among the two of you."

Having said this, he moved forward and cast a new talisman.

Whoosh—

The scene this time was even more mysterious. The yellow talisman turned into a glow, striking the ground. In the blink of an eye, a charming flower broke through the soil. As it emerged from the ground, it seemed to carry some spirituality, turning its petals left and right, as though it was observing something.

"A Spiritual Eye Flower Talisman?" Only a few people recognized it this time.

This talisman not only required invoking a plant, but it also had to serve as an ear and eye on the ground, providing information to the person casting the talisman.

Creating a spirit being, this level of difficulty was beyond most people’s understanding.

Not to mention it also had to possess mystique.

Some people even started to doubt. Could a simple talisman achieve the method of conjuring spirit plants from thin air?

This was clearly a Rune Array!

This time both Jiang Yuebai and Chu Liang spent a long time thinking, staring at the task and standing still. Afterward, Chu Liang was the first one to start drawing. Jiang Yuebai started a bit later, but she too began to draw the talisman.

A moment later, both of their talismans were ready.

Jiang Yuebai went forward to demonstrate. She cast the talisman, and a divine light flashed momentarily. A charming plant broke through the soil, but it remained still and quietly bloomed.

She gently shook her head.

The result was obviously not satisfactory.

Instead of announcing success or failure immediately, the Law-enforcement Elder softly said, "Let’s see the next one."

Although she had failed, the Elder wanted to see the level of Chu Liang’s completion before making a decision. If Chu Liang couldn’t accomplish even this step, then Jiang Yuebai would have won.

Among the two of them, most people naturally believed that Jiang Yuebai had the better chances of winning.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Chu Liang slowly stepped forward and cast his talisman.

Whoosh—

A flash of brilliance shot into the ground. In the blink of an eye, a plant broke through the soil. This plant was tender, but after breaking the soil, it turned left and right a few times, seemingly possessing a sort of spirituality.

He made it?

Then the Law-enforcement Elder gently nodded, "Chu Liang has won."

He actually did it!

This utterly shocked everyone present. Even though his talismans had been embarrassing one after another, was he still the most competent person in the field in terms of Dao of Talisman?

Even Chu Liang himself knew that this shouldn’t be the case. If they had simply been asked to draw a talisman, the performances of Senior Sister Jiang and Xu Ziyang would probably have been 80% better than his own.

But deconstructing talismans was something he often did.

Initially, he had started studying runes to practice the Talisman Sword Technique. To better understand and control the various runes, he often deconstructed talismans to hone his grasp of runes.

The runes were like basic knowledge points, and each talisman was like a problem. He had long practiced solution tactics for these problems.

That’s why, when using the Talisman Sword Technique, he was always faster than others. His control over individual runes was better and he knew how to combine them for the best outcome.

Although both Senior Sister Jiang and Xu Ziyang were competent in Dao of Talisman, neither of them had specifically practiced it this way.

Aside from Chu Liang, there was probably no one else in the Immortal Cultivation World who practiced the Dao of Talisman by solving problems...

A few familiar faces gathered around, asking him how he was able to do it.

Looking at their curious eyes, Chu Liang could only respond with a question, "Don’t you guys do problem-solving exercises?"

...

He turned around to see the Law-enforcement Elder walking over with a big grin.

"Elder, may I ask what Secret Realm we are going to?" Chu Liang asked.

"It’s a Secret Realm jointly developed by Penglai Upper Sect, Misty Mountain Immortal, Yunque Temple, Heavenly King Sect, Tianshu Pavilion, and our Shu Mountain. Each faction will send a disciple there," replied the Law-enforcement Elder, "It’s a Secret Realm left behind by the Talisman Heavenly Master."
