Chapter 1173: [(872)] Treasure Talisman Acquired (Thanks to the supporter with the last digits 5146 for the tip)_2

Pei Jinye couldn’t help frowning.

“I’m already at the Cave Heaven Level, and I still can’t fully activate it?”

“That’s not right.”

“There’s something wrong with the Secret Technique taught by the Blood Drake!”

Pei Jinye hurriedly began to seek the truth with the help of the power of the master of the True Ice Tower.

Indeed, he found a piece of encrypted text that was hidden.

A stone slab was hidden in the abode of the Blood Drake.

It clearly recorded the method of refining.

It differed in certain ways from what the Blood Drake originally taught.

“So that’s how it is… according to the Secret Technique taught by the Blood Drake, in the end, I was merely being used as a human blood bank for storing Treasure Talismans… Once the Blood Drake took possession of my body, it would then use the real Secret Technique to refine itself into the true master of the True Ice Talisman.”

“This fellow… is truly filthy at heart.”

Pei Jinye quickly composed himself and started to refine again.

Fortunately, most of the refining steps were correct, so this saved a lot of trouble.

A full three days passed.

While Pei Jinye was refining, the Cultivators who broke into the outside world also became fewer and fewer.

Everyone clearly noticed the changes at the Inheritance Land… it suddenly seemed to become lifeless.

At the same time.

A seal on the True Ice Treasure Symbol was completely erased.

This moment meant that Pei Jinye had become its master!

“Boom!”

The Treasure Talisman entered his body.

His God Soul trembled.

The power that dissipated shattered the last incomplete corpse of the Blood Drake.

“What is this?”

Pei Jinye unexpectedly saw a pink, fist-sized sphere rolling out from inside the Blood Drake’s body.

“So you were here?”

Just outside, a familiar figure arrived and exclaimed with surprise.

Pei Jinye was about to turn around when the pink sphere in his hand suddenly shattered without warning, filling the entire room, enveloping them both.

…

Pei Jinye felt as though he had had a dream filled with fervent passion, where the tender entanglements trapped him in a land of warmth, unable to extricate himself.

But when he woke up, there was no one else beside him.

“Could it… really have been just a dream?”

Pei Jinye sat up, somewhat startled and uncertain, and then suddenly realized that his clothes had long been torn to shreds.

“No, it wasn’t a dream.”

“So… who was it?”

Pei Jinye waved his hand, and clothes appeared on his body.

It seemed as if a lingering scent still remained in the air.

His expression changed momentarily.

But remembering the last call from behind, he concentrated slightly.

The other party was also enveloped in the pink mist, so…

However, the voice that called out to him in his memory was somewhat hazy.

What he could confirm was…

The person definitely knew him.

It was infuriating that he was careless at that moment, and the pink sphere inside the Blood Drake unexpectedly shattered without cause.

Furthermore, at the time, he had exhausted a considerable amount of spiritual power in refining the True Ice Talisman, naturally leaving him vulnerable to exploitation.

“I didn’t expect that after the Blood Drake died, it could still trick me.”

“But what exactly was that thing?”

Pei Jinye furrowed his brows.

He extended his spiritual power, activating the True Ice Tower, but found no answer from it.

However, he discovered that a large number of people had already gathered downstairs.

“I can’t stay here any longer; these people might forcefully make a move soon, and with my current level of cultivation, I simply…”

Pei Jinye exclaimed in surprise all of a sudden.

His cultivation had unexpectedly broken through to the Cave Heaven Middle Level!

Yet he had only just broken through to the Cave Heaven Realm five days ago.

“To advance a realm in five days?”

Even if Pei Jinye was confused, he understood that it must be related to that person before.

After a while, his face showed a weird expression.

Hurrying to his feet.

After searching for a long time, he still couldn’t find any trace of his senior sister.

“Even that crazy woman is gone.”

Pei Jinye’s heart sank.

He quickly activated the True Ice Tower.

“Rumble rumble!”

The ground trembled.

A huge fissure tore open, and the Cultivators who tried to attack the True Ice Tower to get in were startled, scattering in all directions.

Seizing the chaos.

Pei Jinye took the True Ice Tower into his body, and at this moment, hidden somewhere in the ruins, his body was light and agile, rushing towards the ground.

Now, his level of cultivation had entered the Cave Heaven Middle Level, his Vitality was vigorous, and the Power of the Star within him was surging immensely.

Having greatly increased in strength, he also had gained some additional means of self-protection.

Although he hadn’t seen Lin Xiawei, he had just seen people from Eternal Night, so he believed his senior sister shouldn’t have encountered any trouble.

As for that madwoman from the God Luo Association…

He wondered if she was dead.

Since the night the Light Column shot up into the sky, a month had already passed.

Over the past month, whether it was cultivators from nearby areas or other regions, they all flocked to Liyue Mountain as if entering the stage in full glory.

Pei Jinye had just emerged when he saw people everywhere around the outer periphery of Liyue Mountain.

If it wasn’t for the landslide caused by withdrawing the True Ice Tower, Pei Jinye might have been discovered as soon as he appeared.

Pei Jinye concealed his Vitality.

He sized up the surroundings stealthily.

There were several powerful presences scattered around.

Most were cultivators below the Planet Level, with many fighting fiercely over Spiritual Medicine.

The people of Eternal Night seemed not to plan on intervening, watching these battles with cold eyes.

What caught Pei Jinye’s attention, however, were those few Cloud Sky Level strongmen… engaged in a standoff from various sides.

These were indeed genuine Cloud Sky Level strongmen.

If he were to be spotted by them, Pei Jinye would be in real trouble, so he deliberately avoided this group and turned onto a small path.

“The True Ice Tower has disappeared! Someone has taken the inheritance!”

Just then, a hoarse shout came from the ruins’ entrance.

Cultivators in the mountains, whether engaged in battle or standoff, were all stunned and looked over in astonishment.

“The True Ice Tower has disappeared?”

“No wonder there was such a commotion just now.”

“Quick, seal off Liyue Mountain! That person must not have left yet!”

Some people reacted, bellowing urgently.

Pei Jinye’s expression darkened slightly, and he quickly hopped onto a tree branch, attempting to leave when suddenly an arrow landed on the tree trunk in front of him.

Looking up.

A young woman with short hair coldly said, “Why the rush to leave, sir?”

Pei Jinye glanced around.

After confirming nobody noticed this place, his figure suddenly disappeared on the spot.

The short-haired woman was clearly startled.

A fluctuation transmitted through the air in front of her.

Her face changed slightly, and she yelled urgently, “You are courting death!”

She didn’t expect the other party to dare to take the initiative to attack.

However, to the woman’s surprise, by the time Pei Jinye’s fist landed in front of her, the Life-bonding Star she had hastily summoned at the last moment was attracted and dissolved by a terrifying force.

By the time she truly perceived this scene, the huge fist had already mercilessly slammed into her head.

“Crack!”

The sound of a watermelon bursting rang out but was completely drowned in the noise from afar.

An insignificant Eternal Star Level cultivator dared to block his path, truly clueless about what death means!

The process of Devouring memories was quick.

But there was nothing worth Pei Jinye’s sentimentality.

However, after his Life-bonding Star was devoured, the star power inside his Body surged significantly.

This was Pei Jinye’s first time using the Devour Ability of a Life-bonding Star.

But no words needed to be said.

It was powerful.

It’s just that the process was too crude.

He didn’t even have time to properly experience it when the other party’s orange Life-bonding Star had already been swallowed in one gulp.

After quickly leaving the original spot.

Pei Jinye had already rushed to the perimeter.

But he had greatly underestimated the attraction of Liyue Mountain to the numerous cultivators at this moment.

“Bang!”

A flash of light flickered.

It rapidly pursued Pei Jinye and turned into a massive cloud in mid-air, swiftly enveloping downwards.

But Pei Jinye was even faster.

He disappeared from the spot.

The light cloud directly lost its target and dissipated unhappily.

“Huh, to be able to dodge my Purple Cloud Mist, this person is quite interesting,” a young figure appeared where Pei Jinye had vanished.

A young woman’s voice came from behind, “What’s wrong, Senior Brother?”

“Nothing, just met an interesting fellow.” The young man’s lips curved slightly, not taking Pei Jinye seriously, as he raised his head to look into the distance.

“I wanted to kill this person and soul-search to understand the situation, but it seems… something has happened at the Inheritance Land that we aren’t aware of.”

The young woman’s face changed slightly, “Oh no, why have so many people rushed over here?”

The young figure rushed out.

The Purple Cloud Mist swept through.

A figure was caught within it.

He pressed down with a large hand.

Grabbing the other person’s head, he soul-searched on the spot.

The next second.

His eyes narrowed.

He said solemnly, “Nine Ice Ascendant’s inheritance has been taken.”

“What?” The young woman exclaimed, suddenly at a loss, “What do we do now?”

The young man suddenly turned his head, his gaze sharp as lightning, “That kid just now has a problem! I’ll chase him!”

“Senior Brother, I’ll follow you.”

…

Pei Jinye noticed the two figures drawing closer behind him and frowned slightly.

Two Cave Heaven Level…

No good comes without ill, ill without good.

The young man used an Arc-shaped magic weapon with an astonishing speed; he quickly caught up to within a hundred meters behind Pei Jinye and called out loudly, “Little brother, wait up!”

“Boom!”

Pei Jinye turned around and launched a punch with explosive kill power.
