Chapter 200: Jade Talisman of the Ancestral Hall

Jin Shenxuan's chest crumbled in with blood where a bowl sized hole could be seen.

Wei Suo drew in a breath of cold air. After witnessing a low grade Spirit Class artifact shield being penetrated so easily, he reckoned that blood pearl wasn't inferior at all to his mid grade
Spirit Class Divine Six-Suns Firefork.

"Could it be the old man was wrong? This unremarkable looking dagger without powerful spirit energy fluctuations, is actually a true mid grade Spirit Class artifact?"

"Ahhhh!"

After a miserable cry, Jin Shenxuan didn't die even after having his chest punctured through with a blood hole.

Instead, his artifact robe combusted into a bat-shaped radiance of black and gold. Like a cicada shedding its carapace, the bat flew out and unyieldingly resisted the incoming small black dagger.

Simultaneously, he retrieved a red pellet medicine and consumed it. The Falling Dragon Ruler then morphed into a hundred black rays and covered the entire hall densely, shooting straight towards Wei Suo and Jin Qiao'er.

As for Jin Shenxuan, he frantically flew backwards as he strove to flee.

Wei Suo's countenance changed slightly.

A Thought Division Stage level 1 cultivator was indeed a Thought Division Stage level 1 cultivation. Even after being wounded so heavily, he could still react swiftly and cast techniques. Furthermore, the Falling Dragon Ruler appeared true to its reputation and seemed incredibly potent. It would be tough for Wei Suo to impede his escape.

"Ahh!!"

Sou! Yet in the same instance where Wei Suo's divine light screen was struck by the Falling Dragon Ruler, Jin Shenxuan released a despairing shriek.

Dang!

After the Falling Dragon Ruler, that had been abandoned by Jin Shenxuan, shattered two of Wei Suo's divine light screens, its brilliance faded and fell to the ground.

Meanwhile, Jin Shenxuan, who was about to escape from the window, collapsed to the ground while convulsing. Many thin blood holes could be seen on his face and appeared immeasurably horrifying.

After a momentary blankness, Wei Suo immediately reacted and quickly discarded his intention to retract all his surrounding divine light screens.

Black Drillworms!

There were still numerous Black Drillworms that were alive in this grand hall.

After being grievously afflicted, all of Jin Shenxuan's attention was given to Wei Suo and Jin Qiao'er; thus, he failed to guard against those weird bugs, thinking that those bugs would undoubtedly perish after losing energy.

Sou! Jin Qiao'er once again activated her black dagger which drilled into Jin Shenxuan's body.

Moments after the dagger drilled in, his body turned rigid and lost all life force.

To Wei Suo's astonishment, when that black dagger drilled into Jin Shenxuan, blood instantly stopped streaming out from his wounds as though all his blood had been drained.

"Haha! Old dog, always desiring to eliminate granny and I, yet eventually falling to my hands!"

Jin Qiao'er laughed hysterically as though Wei Suo was invisible after she retrieved her black dagger.

Meanwhile, Wei Suo brazenly stored the fallen Falling Dragon Ruler, but with a massive frown on his face. He was now feeling a tremendous threat from Jin Qiao'er's tiny black dagger; this pointy nose, thick eyebags ugly lass looked even more sinister while laughing. She was truly exceedingly ugly to behold.

At present, the remaining Black Drillworms swarmed towards them. Wei Suo was extremely clear on the nature of these Black Drillworms. He purposely summoned an ordinary Profound Iron Shield to attract all the Black Drillworms to surge towards it. Then, he casually unleashed some skill talismans and annihilated the dying group of Black Drillworms.

After killing the Black Drillworms, Wei Suo hastened to the nearest window and took a peep outside.

The entire Jin Villa was now brightly lit, as though it was in a state of emergency. Many cultivators had gathered outside this 9 storey building but not a single one had entered.

"Don't peep. This place is the forbidden ground of Jin Villa, they wouldn't dare to enter unless you start bragging about killing the old dog. Quick, search the old dog if the Entrance Talisman to the ancestral hall is on him." After her sinister laughter, Jin Qiao'er coldly admonished Wei Suo for peeping outside.

Wei Suo nodded expressionlessly and rushed to Jin Shenxuan's corpse before searching.

He could sense a trace of fear still lingering in Jin Qiao'er's eyes. Although he felt a restraining fear towards Jin Qiao'er's black dagger, she also felt the same way towards his Divine Six-Suns Firefork and Black Drillworms. Perhaps, Jin Qiao'er was even thinking he could be Old Devil Qin. From her state now, she no longer underestimated him but was afraid of any Black Drillworm remnants on Jin Shenxuan.

Wei Suo snagged a cyan Treasure Receiving Pocket from Jin Shenxuan but didn't discover anything else. While retrieving the Treasure Receiving Pocket, Wei Suo had sneakily pressed the corpse and immediately felt a chill in his heart. Jin Shenxuan actually had all his blood drained completely and felt like a dead tree.

Wei Suo swept through with his divine sense after taking the Treasure Receiving Pocket. He noticed two jade talismans, a spiritual stone pouch and several other pellet medicines.

With a stir in his heart, Wei Suo produced the two jade talismans.

One was a square pinkish jade talisman while the other a circle dull golden talisman that was engraved with strange talismanic shapes of cranes and immortals.

"Quick, hand the jade talisman to me, that's the Entrance Spirit Talisman of our Jin Ancestral hall!"

Upon viewing the dull golden talisman, her face instantly flushed with a wild delight and quickly cried out with urgency. Also, Wei Suo noticed her eyes beaming with avaracity while eyeing the pinkish jade talisman.

Wei Suo tossed the dull golden jade talisman to Jin Qiao'er but blatantly stored the pinkish jade talisman into his Treasure Receiving Pocket.

"Let's go." Jin Qiao'er looked distinctly displeased with Wei Suo's action but didn't mention anything. Instead, he gestured for Wei Suo to continue going up.

"Why? Could it be you the Jin Clan's ancestral hall is in this building?" Wei Suo was slightly stunned and chose to inquire first.

"You guessed correctly. Our Jin clan's ancestral hall is on the ninth floor. Otherwise, why would Jin Shenxuan that old dog be awaiting in this building." Jin Qiao'er sneered. "Oh relax and follow me, perhaps we can continue with our deal after completing our earlier deal. I can assist you in settling those lil' dogs and street dogs around the old dog."

Wei Suo's eyes flickered and chose to remain silent. He then tailed Jin Qiao'er.

Nothing surprising occurred during their ascent to the eighth floor. Right at the entrance of the ninth floor, an enormous door made with pure gold emerged. The door was inscribed with various strange talismanic patterns of immortals, cranes and pines. It emitted a layer of thick golden brilliance that swayed along this enormous door.

"Eh?"

Wei Suo felt an immense pressure from just 15 metres away from the door.

The pressure wasn't an ordinary spirit energy pressure but a peculiar divine sense pressure. As Wei Suo advanced several steps, even with his current divine sense, he was still affected mentally and couldn't shake off the feeling.

Wei Suo quickly retreated several steps. It would be too risky if Jin Qiao'er decided to harbour malice and seize the opportunity against him in that state.

Meanwhile, Jin Qiao'er's eyes flashed with a feverish glint upon sighting this enormous door.

Following that, she widened her mouth and unexpectedly spat out an identical looking dull golden circle jade talisman.

While Wei Suo was still utterly astonished, Jin Qiao'er cut her own wrist and dripped several droplets of blood onto the two circular jade talisman. Following that, she channeled an endless supply of true energy into the two jade talisman.

A scene that utterly shocked Wei Suo then occurred.

The two dull golden jade talisman emitted a streak of radiance which transformed into a peach immortal. That phantom peach immortal marched towards the golden door and reached out its hand before lightly pushing it.

Closely after, the enormous golden door actually swung open.


A grand hall filled with multitudes of hanging portraits appeared before Wei Suo and Jin Qiao'er.

The portraits were all images of individuals which seemed to be consecutive generations of Jin Clan predecessors.

Of course, Wei Suo didn't harbour any interest in all that. What attracted his gaze, was a light-green light screen in the middle of this expansive grand hall. A white archaic talisman was floating amidst the light-green light screen.

Jin Qiao'er's face instantly flashed with ecstasy upon sighting that white archaic talisman, and was about to rush forth and grab the talisman for herself.

"Jin Qiao'er!" At this point, Wei Suo shouted at her with chilling austerity.

Jin Qiao'er's brows creased with vigilance as she asked, "Why?"

"You asked why?" Wei Suo glimpsed at this ancestral hall that only housed a single white jade talisman. "You said your Jin Clan's ancestral hall is worth more than 200,000 low grade spiritual stones, where are the spiritual stones? I don't even see a single spiritual stone!"

"The spiritual stones storage is not here." Jin Qiao'er impatiently refuted. "After I keep this I will bring you to retrieve the spiritual stones at once."

"Jin Qiao'er you truly take me to be a fool!" Wei Suo's eyes flashed with hostility. "You are obviously making use of me to reach here, if not for my resources and capability to destroy even the Grandis Gold Formation, I would've been killed by you here. If you can't produce the spiritual stones now, I can still trust you. But for this jade talisman, I will hold it for now. If you still fail to bring me to retrieve my spiritual stones, don't blame me for revolting!"

"No! That jade talisman absolutely cannot be placed on you." Jin Qiao'er immediately screamed out.

Chapter 201: Loose Cultivator's Cavern Abode

"I've already handed the Scarletwing Flame Devil's demonic dan-pellet to you, yet I haven't seen even a shadow of my 200,000 low grade spiritual stones." Wei Suo mercilessly chided.

"Moreover, I reckon you haven't left the Aqua Charm Pavilion for so long, you are clueless as to whether your clan's treasury contains 200,000 low grade spiritual stones. What if there isn't 200,000 spiritual stones in the treasury, what will you say then? Anyway, looking at you now, the treasury probably isn't near here."

"Our Jin Clan's treasury is that centralized black two storey pavilion, there is definitely an abundance of spiritual stones inside." Jin Qiao'er was clearly overwhelming infatuated with that white jade talisman. Fearing that Wei Suo would act abruptly, she didn't dare to proceed to snatch for it but glared at Wei Suo. "Furthermore, now that we've attracted the members of Jin Villa here, we can utilize the secret passageway to easily infiltrate the treasury and acquire your spiritual stones. Now that the old dog is dead, you just have to assist me in slaying some of his dog lackeys and the whole Jin Clan will be under my control. When that happens, you can have as much spiritual stones as you like. Even if we can't provide the amount you want today, I will surely compensate you double in the future."

"I can see your true intentions, to use me as your blade and eliminate your foes." Wei Suo sneered and continued. "But I detest being used by others. You've already fooled me once, bringing me to a place devoid of spiritual stones and nearly causing me to lose my life. Like I said, on account that you're a female, I shall trust you once more; but, this jade talisman will stay with me for now, lest you resort to any tricks. Otherwise, you have another alternative - hand me something else of equal worth. For example, that tiny black dagger with pretty impressive might. If you can use it as collateral, I will allow you to retrieve that jade talisman."

Jin Qiao'er's expression fluctuated non-stop. Finally, she lowered her pride and explained in a soft tone.

"This Blood Feasting Artifact Dagger is an inheritance from my parents. Moreover, without anything to protect myself with, I'll be wary of you as well; lest you attempt to stab my back. Without this, I am utterly powerless. As for that jade talisman, it records a few matters. If it lands in your hands and you scan it casually with your divine sense, then all my efforts in entering this ancestral hall would become pointless."

Following that, Wei Suo refrained from declaring his position but didn't appear relenting as well.

Seeing Wei Suo's state, Jin Qiao'er helplessly persuaded, "How about this, if the next place I bring you to isn't the treasury of spiritual stones, you can do whatever you want with me."

"Apart from acquiring spiritual stones from you, what else can I do?" Wei Suo was presently nearly losing his temper with Jin Qiao'er, as he said, "Unless you reveal the mystery behind this jade talisman, and spare me from being confusedly used by you."

"Fine!" Probably filled with confidence in her Blood Feasting Artifact Dagger, Jin Qiao'er gitted her teeth and answered, "This jade talisman records the cavern abode of a cultivator that our Jin Clan's ancestor fortuitously encountered. However, one can only enter this cavern abode once in every fifty years. The talisman also records the specific timing and method to lift all forbidden restrictions. Regarding all these information, it is pad through the countless efforts and blood of many generations of Jin Clan ancestors."

"A loose cultivator's cavern abode?" Wei Suo glanced at Jin Qiao'er with disbelief. "Just a loose cultivator's cavern abode is worthy of being held in such significance in your ancestral hall? Worthy of your staking your life to barge in here? With your cultivation, even if you gain access of this jade talisman, I'm afraid you won't be a match for Jin Shenxuan's descendants eh?"

Jin Qiao'er forcefully suppressed her anxiety and explained, "Honestly speaking, that loose cultivator is minimally a grand Golden Dan stage cultivator. This cavern abode definitely houses incredibly powerful artifacts and treasures. Perhaps, there will be invincible skill techniques as well. Although the old dog possessed a single Entrance Spirit Talisman, he doesn't know the skill technique of activating the Spirit Talisman as well. He schemed to defeat us all for my Entrance Spirit Talisman. After acquiring this jade talisman, if I can obtain one or two items from the cavern abode, I will surely return to settle my debts with them. If any of my word is false, then may I fail in refining the Scarletwing Flame devil's demonic dan-pellet and my longevity drain away swiftly."

"Minimally a grand Golden Dan Cultivator's cavern abode?"

Wei Suo's eyes flickered slightly before nodding at Jin Qiao'er as he said, "Alright, since you dare to make a death oath, I will believe you. You can go retrieve that jade talisman."

Any cultivator would be exceedingly enticed by the prospect of a Golden Dan Stage cultivator's cavern abode. Though these bunch from the Jin Clan appeared formidable, they were merely tyrants at home while meek in public. With just a few sentences, Wei Suo managed to uncover such a secret from her mouth.

Undoubtedly, the cultivators of Jin Clan had entered that cavern abode before and knew it housed plenty of wondrous items. Nevertheless, they were limited by their own capabilities and couldn't harvest them all.

Except, the limited entry of once per fifty years prompted Wei Suo to recall Sky Valley. Moreover, the members of the Jin Clan failed to retrieve much goods even after the myriad years; evidently, the cavern abode was tremendously risky and may even be more treacherous than Sky Valley.

Regarding such a place, Wei Suo, who had experienced Sky Valley, truly felt unwilling to visit.

As for why he resorted to beating around the bush with Jin Qiao'er, it was because he acknowledged that Jin Qiao'er was an exceptionally ruthless individual. In addition to her queer Blood Feasting Artifact Dagger, if that jade talisman was some sort of powerful artifact, he would be wishing to cry but without tears if she decided to turn hostile towards him.

Hence, Wei Suo truly didn't possess any ambition to embezzle that jade talisman.

"Really?" Jin Qiao'er's eyes flushed with delight. Still, she didn't dare to commence but feared Wei Suo mounting a sneaky and opportunistic move.

"Do I not look like a man of my words?" Wei Suo glanced at Jin Qiao'er and scoffed. "If I was truly the untrustworthy type, you wouldn't even have the chance to obtain the Scarletwing Flame Devil's demonic dan-pellet, and be standing here right now."

Jin Qiao'er then clenched her teeth and rushed in, before stretching forth and grabbing that white jade talisman that was floating within the light-green light screen.

She then paused briefly after seizing the jade talisman, clearly using her divine sense to check the contents of the white jade talisman.

Without much deliberations, Wei Suo could tell this woman was probably playing it safe; directly browsing through the contents before destroying the white jade talisman evidence.

Yet after that brief while, Jin Qiao'er's expression turned rather unpleasant. She stored the white jade talisman. It seemed like its contents were rather complicated, where she couldn't understand or commit them to memory just yet.

"Let's go, I'll bring you to our Jin Clan's treasury."

Seeing that Wei Suo was merely awaiting her silently, her expression turned somewhat better.

After strolling out of the ancestral hall, she suddenly recalled something and asked Wei Suo, "If there's more than 200,000 spiritual stones in our treasury, how much spiritual stones can I offer you to deal with Jin Quanji and company?"

"I do not wish to participate in the Jin Clan's internal squabbles." Wei Suo replied. "But if you want me to assist you in peacefully leaving Jin Villa and Perching Phoenix City, I can still accept it."

"Good!" Jin Qiao'er nodded fiercely. "Let's go, we've dragged for too long. I'm afraid those little dogs can no longer endure barging in."

Of course Wei Suo nodded without objection. He too didn't wish to remain an additional second in this restricted grounds, promising himself that if he had the time in the future, he would spend more effort in researching formation arrays of the present cultivation world.

After all, the green gowned Old Man's knowledge completely resided in ancient formation arrays, and was rather obsolete with regards to present time formation arrays.

Just a single Jin Clan's formation array already carried such weighty devastation. If he ever encountered sects or cultivators with a deadlier formation array, wouldn't it be equivalent to freely walking into snares and being rapidly slaughtered without a chance of resisting?

They quietly crept down to the sixth floor. From outside the window, they could tell the crowd of Jin Clan cultivators were compounding up. Various artifacts and torches illuminated the entire nine storey building brightly like a white palace. Nonetheless, not a single cultivator entered this nine storey ancestral building.

However, just when Jin Qiao'er and Wei Suo effortlessly descended to the fifth floor, a thump resounded. An individual charged out without warning from one of the fifth floor's rooms.

Wei Suo and Jin Qiao'er instantly braced themselves as their expressions sank. It was possible the rooms were infused with a formation array that obstructed one's divine sense. Hence, both them and the old man failed to discover someone in that room.

As for the individual that charged out, her face instantly turned deathly pale upon glimpsing Wei Suo and Jin Qiao'er!

This was a ravishing beauty with a sweet figure. It was indeed the lovable yet tired beauty Wei Suo saw earlier.

At present, she had evidently recovered most of her energy, and was probably cultivating in that quiet room. She didn't even sense the intense battle earlier and just coincidentally left her room.

"Jin Xin'er, I was wondering who it was, so it's actually a little slut!"

Noticing this pure woman, the fear in Jin Qiao'er's eyes completely vanished. In its place, was a rich desire to commit murder.

"So this female is called Jin Xin'er" Such a notion welled up in Wei Suo's mind, as he took note of Jin Xin'er looking rather afraid of Jin Qiao'er and not making any reckless moves.

"Jin Qiao'er, how did you get here?"

"From outside and of course, for the sake of killing the old dog, Jin Shenxuan." Jin Qiao'er smirked as she brandished her tiny black dagger. "Little slut, say do you want to commit suicide, or should I help you with it? I can leave you with an intact corpse if you choose suicide, but all cordiality will be shed if you dare to make a move. Seeing that you adore looking beautiful all the time, relishing in your reserved demeanor and good looks. Perhaps, I shall strip you clean after killing you, and toss you down from above so everyone below can have a magnificent view of your nakedness."

"Blood Feasting Artifact Dagger!" Jin Xin'er's delicate figure shivered uncontrollably as she listened to Jin Qiao'er's speech while noticing the shimmering black dagger.
