Am I not a nascent saint demon cultivator?

In the end, Lin Zuibai and Yao Lin accepted each other's feelings and chose to get married.

At the wedding, they only invited a few close relatives and friends, including Xu Yun and Wen Lingyu, who also gave a wedding gift.

The wedding was small in scale, but both Lin Zuibai and Yao Lin were very satisfied. From now on, they will work together to lay a good foundation for their future offspring.

As for Xu Yun and Wen Lingyu occasionally helping them out, it was only at their own initiative that they offered, and Lin Zuibai even refused them several times.

In most cases, Lin Zuibai relied on his own efforts to earn spirit stones and lived frugally, clearly not wanting to trouble his two sworn friends.

In the blink of an eye, time flies, and several years have quietly passed.

On this day, in Mofeng City.

Inside a cave.

Xu Yun concentrated intently, holding a top-grade first-level talisman brush, its tip gleaming brightly, as he sketched indeterminately on a talisman paper in front of him.

The talisman paper felt cool to the touch, radiated a jade-like luster, and subtly exuded a certain charm, constantly echoing and resonating with Xu Yun's talisman brush.

This talisman paper has reached the second level. Xu Yun spent a lot of effort to buy it some time ago, but now he is using it to practice talisman skills, hoping to break through to the second level.

Generally speaking, using a first-tier superior skill level to draw a second-tier talisman not only involves extremely expensive materials, but also carries a very high probability of failure.

Therefore, unless one has powerful backing or is a cultivator with abundant resources, they usually wouldn't use second-tier talismans to improve their cultivation level.

Not to mention that Xu Yun is only a C-level retainer, and he has been scavenging for materials related to Foundation Establishment Pills for some time, which has cost him a lot. If he were to use second-tier talismans to improve his skills without regard to cost, it would inevitably bring him a huge burden.

Unfortunately, Xu Yun had a cheat code.

Buzz!

The next moment, Xu Yun's divine sense surged out from his sea of ​​consciousness, came to the outside world, and focused on the second-tier talisman in front of him.

In an instant, Xu Yun's divine sense clearly saw the patterns, marks, and details on the talisman, in great detail.

Xu Yun's every stroke was incredibly precise, his thoughts were clear, flexible, and insightful, and he didn't pause at all.

Soon, the outline of a second-tier rune gradually appeared on it without any flaws, and Xu Yun's face was very calm, without any sense of strain.

If it were any other cultivator, they would surely be exhausted and overworked at this moment, which would lead to mistakes and waste of this second-tier talisman.

Buzz!

Just then, the first-grade high-quality talisman brush in Xu Yun's hand trembled slightly, the bright light on the tip of the brush flickered erratically, and even a faint crack appeared on it.

Ultimately, it was only a first-grade high-quality talisman brush. It would be a stretch to force the creation of second-grade talismans, especially since Xu Yun had used it to create quite a few talismans before, resulting in wear and tear.

Xu Yun's expression remained unchanged upon seeing this scene. Anyone else would have given up by now, but he did not. He continued to draw runes while holding the talisman brush.

Buzz!

Even with the shaky, increasingly cracked talisman brush in his hand, Xu Yun remained calm and wrote with divine assistance, gradually making the outline of the second-tier rune clearer and clearer.

Until the next moment, Xu Yun made the final stroke, completely completing the second-tier rune, which radiated dazzling brilliance.

The next moment, a small sword-shaped rune was imprinted on the second-tier talisman paper, becoming inseparable from it and merging into one.

Second-tier talisman, Cloud Piercing Sword Talisman!

"Phew... I finally succeeded!"

Xu Yun let out a long breath, his face beaming with joy. To have mastered the second-tier talisman with the cultivation of the late stage of Qi Refining was something that was extremely rare in the entire Yuan Kingdom's cultivation world.

The reason he was able to do this was not only because he had the guidance of Daoist Tianlin, a remnant soul of Foundation Establishment, but more importantly because of his own divine sense.

The difference between having divine consciousness and not having divine consciousness is like living in two completely different worlds.

With the help of divine sense, Xu Yun's mind became incredibly sharp, enabling him to perceive details he couldn't see before and to understand things he couldn't comprehend before.

This is why Xu Yun was able to successfully draw a second-tier talisman with his late-stage Qi Refining cultivation and using a first-tier high-grade talisman brush.

An ordinary cultivator simply couldn't do that.

"Furthermore, with the assistance of my divine sense, my cultivation level broke through to the eighth level of Qi Refining, with almost no obstacles."

Xu Yun murmured to himself. During this period, his cultivation at the Qi Refining level had been going very smoothly.

Breaking through to the eighth level of Qi Refining was as natural as a matter of course, without any difficulty at all. Now he felt that even breaking through to the ninth level of Qi Refining would be quick.

These were all changes brought about by his divine sense, which truly made him realize what it meant to be a dimensional reduction attack using high-level techniques.

"That's not all. Because of the transformation into divine consciousness, my Soul-Shocking Needle has also been greatly enhanced."

Xu Yun became even more excited as he spoke. The Soul-Startling Needle was originally a mental technique, and with the blessing of divine sense, its power underwent a tremendous transformation.

According to his estimation, when the time comes, he will be able to use his divine sense to activate the Soul-Shocking Needle, and even if he faces a Foundation Establishment cultivator alone, he will still be able to inflict a certain amount of damage on him.

Such a feat is tantamount to a leapfrog challenge, something only those chosen by fate and the prodigies of powerful forces can accomplish.

"I never thought I would have such an honor one day. This divine sense is truly amazing."

Xu Yun sighed sincerely. Since gaining divine consciousness, he had become much more confident than before.

Thinking of this, he glanced again at the talisman brush in his hand, which had many cracks. It was obviously because he had just forcibly drawn a second-tier talisman, causing severe wear and tear.

If it is used one or two more times, it will probably break down completely.

"Well, the auction in Mofeng City is about to start, so I can go there and see if I can find a suitable second-tier rune pen."

Xu Yun stroked his chin. Although the auction in Mofeng City was not as grand as the auction in Tiantuo City, it was still worth attending.

It is said that the Muyun Chamber of Commerce is also sponsoring the event. With its resources, the auction in Mofeng City should not disappoint.

Buzz!

Just then, Xu Yun suddenly sensed some fluctuations in the array outside the cave, and his eyebrows twitched slightly.

He was too lazy to sense the outside world through the array as before, so he immediately moved his divine sense and quickly spread it out to take in the source of those slight fluctuations.

The next moment, a beautiful little girl, dressed in a well-fitting light blue dress and with pigtails, tiptoed and sneakily hid among the flowers outside the cave.

She would occasionally peek out with her little head, pouting, looking around in all directions as if she were hiding from something.

Seeing that no one was around, she quickly hid her petite body in the flower bushes, as if she had done it many times before, appearing very skilled.

"So it was this little girl."

Upon seeing the situation outside, Xu Yun sighed and rubbed his forehead, appearing utterly helpless.

He then stood up and prepared to leave the cave to properly resolve this trouble.
