My Optimized Immortal Life

Chapter 44: Level 2 Formation Inheritance

Xu Lingxin is indeed good-looking, and she is also willing to let Chen Qing plant a restriction on her, which means that after the restriction is planted, Chen Qing can do whatever he wants with her, such as... (The following 30,000 words omitted)

However, the fact that Xu Lingxin dared to do this meant that the trouble she was in was far greater than the restriction placed on her by Chen Qing.

Chen Qing suddenly felt in a dilemma. On the one hand, he really wanted the second-level inheritance jade slip in Xu Lingxin's hand, but he was also worried about the trouble Xu Lingxin would get into. In this way, he had to make a choice.

Chen Qing fell into deep thought, while Xu Lingxin stared at Chen Qing, waiting for him to make a choice. At the same time, she thought to herself that if this couldn't impress Chen Qing, then she would have no choice but to consider leaving Song State.

"You must be in some trouble. Tell me about it."

It was unknown how long it took before Chen Qing finally spoke.

After hearing Chen Qing ask her this, Xu Lingxin felt relieved. She no longer had to worry about leaving Song State.

But how to tell Chen Qing about her troubles is a technical job.

"I was originally the daughter of the headmaster of the Tianyun Sect of the Song Kingdom. But seven years ago, the Tianyun Sect obtained a heaven-defying secret treasure. Afterwards, the news leaked, and the Tianyun Sect was besieged by many forces. Although there was a third-level sect protection formation, it was no match for the fourth-level spiritual treasure of the Tianyuan Sect. In the entire Tianyun Sect, I was the only one who survived..."

As she spoke, the corners of Xu Lingxin's eyes turned red, with water stains on them, making her look delicate and pitiful, but it was useless to Chen Qing.

"What about the secret treasure?"

Instead, he asked about the so-called secret treasure.

"It was shattered by Yuanying Zhenjun's spiritual treasure during the struggle."

Xu Ling thought to herself.

"You should have some fragments of the secret treasure, right?" he asked.

Xu Lingxin hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

As expected! Chen Qing knew that if Xu Lingxin was the daughter of the leader of a sect that had destroyed many families, it would be impossible for her to cover her face and hide her identity. However, the trouble with this woman was less than he expected.

"That fragment isn't the main part, but it still carries some of the treasure's functions."

Xu Lingxin continued.

That was still within the acceptable range. Chen Qing nodded. If the main fragment of the secret treasure was in Xu Lingxin's hands, he would definitely not consider trading with Xu Lingxin. However, if it was just a fragment, it would not attract too much attention from other forces.

"In that case, I agree to your deal."

Chen Qing said so.

Xu Lingxin nodded, then handed the jade slip to Chen Qing.

Chen Qing took over the second-level inheritance of the Four Arts of Immortal Cultivation, which was much more precious than the first-level inheritance.

If the first-level inheritance can be bought in the market, then the second-level inheritance can only be obtained by forces at least at the foundation-building level, and only the top forces among them have such foundation. Therefore, the second-level inheritance given by Xu Lingxin really made Chen Qing excited.

Chen Qing placed the jade slip between his eyebrows and his spiritual consciousness flowed into it. He saw four large golden characters appear in the dark space.

Detailed explanation of the formation!

Formation inheritance! Chen Qing was stunned. He didn't expect that this second-level inheritance was actually the inheritance of formation. He had never come into contact with formations before. This was going to be interesting.

The spiritual consciousness was not too deep. After Chen Qing took a quick look at the contents of the jade slip, he withdrew his spiritual consciousness.

He put the jade slip into his storage bag and smiled helplessly.

"Xu Lingxin, are you really determined to be my maid?"

"Yeah." Xu Lingxin nodded.

Many years later, when Xu Lingxin recalled what happened in this small room today, she couldn't help but feel extremely grateful for her original choice. Now she didn't know what was about to happen to her.

Seeing Xu Lingxin nod, Chen Qing took out a token from the storage bag.

"In that case, then separate a strand of your soul and inject it into this token."

Chen Qing said with a smile.

Xu Lingxin closed her eyes and used her magic power and spiritual consciousness to separate a wisp of her soul. A wisp of gray air appeared on Xu Lingxin's index finger. She stretched out her finger and injected this wisp of soul into the token.

After a wisp of Xu Lingxin's soul entered the token, Chen Qing quickly activated his magic power and set various restrictions on the token. After the restrictions were set, Chen Qing tried to send a trace of magic power to the token.

Then, Xu Lingxin immediately covered her head and cried out in pain.

"Don't... don't activate the restriction."

Seeing that the ban was effective, Chen Qing nodded with satisfaction and then put the token away.

"Xu Lingxin, put on your human skin mask and get ready to go."

"Yes."

The pain in Xu Lingxin's soul caused by Chen Qing's activation of the restriction had not yet disappeared. Xu Lingxin didn't care about it anymore. She hurriedly took out the human skin mask from the storage bag and put it on, restoring her previous appearance. At this time, Chen Qing had walked to the door, put away the sound-hiding talisman on the door, and then pushed the door open and walked out.

And behind him, Xu Lingxin followed closely.

"Go and inform Mr. Qian first, otherwise it won't be so easy to take you away directly."

Chen Qing said to Xu Lingxin behind him.

Hmm? Xu Lingxin felt that Chen Qing was taking advantage of her, but now was not the time to dwell on this, so Xu Lingxin remained silent.

Bringing Xu Lingxin to the main building, the monks around saw Xu Lingxin following closely behind Chen Qing, and they couldn't help but start discussing in a low voice.

Chen Qing ignored them and went straight up the stairs to the third floor, where Mr. Qian lived.

As for Xu Lingxin, her pretty face was already red at this time. After hearing the discussion of the talisman masters around her, she lowered her head involuntarily, not daring to look at others.

This made the other monks know what had happened, and they gathered together and spoke after the two men walked up the stairs and disappeared from their sight.

"I didn't expect that Elder Jiang would also like the apprentice. That apprentice doesn't look that good either."

"Maybe Elder Jiang just likes that. It's hard to say."

"Why doesn't Elder Jiang like me? I'm better than that apprentice in both looks and figure."

"..."

Walking all the way up to the third floor, Chen Qing knocked on the door of Mr. Qian's room.

"Come in."

Only after hearing Mr. Qian's voice from inside did Chen Qing push open the door and walk in.

Behind the door was a spacious room. On the left was a row of filled bookshelves. Chen Qing glanced at them.

Book titles such as "A Preliminary Explanation of the Way of Talismans", "Records of Talisman Making by Tai Shang San Ren", and "On Making Talismans" come into view. They are all about the inheritance of talisman making!

Chen Qing didn't expect that the Talisman Master Association actually had so many talisman-making traditions. It was indeed a force that could monopolize the sales of talismans on the entire Qiuye Island.

In front of Chen Qing, Old Qian was lying on a recliner, holding a book called "How to Draw Talismans" in his hands.

Seeing his target, Chen Qing immediately said, "Master Qian, the talisman apprentice Xu Lingxin is quite talented in the art of talismans. I want to take her back and teach her carefully. What do you think?"

After hearing Chen Qing's words, Elder Qian put down the book, glanced at Chen Qing, then looked at Xu Lingxin behind him, and finally said: "Elder Jiang, it's fine to teach the apprentice to make talismans, but it can't delay the talisman needs of the association. After all, the Talisman Master Association is in charge of the talismans of the entire Qiuye Island, and it won't do if there are too few."

"Don't worry, Mr. Qian. Although I can teach talismans, I also want to strive to become a second-level talisman master. I will not forget the expenses of the Talisman Master Association."

Chen Qing bowed.

Old Qian nodded, then stopped talking and picked up the book "How to Draw Talismans" again.

Seeing this, Chen Qing excused himself for disturbing them, then took Xu Lingxin away and closed the door.

"Now, you are mine."

Chen Qing said this to Xu Lingxin.

Xu Lingxin did not refute, but just sighed helplessly. Although she had escaped from the evil vortex of the Talisman Master Association, she was now in Chen Qing's hands again. She could only hope that Chen Qing would be nicer to her.
