Drawing Talismans

Ye Xiaowei went alone to the Treasure Pavilion on Sky-Watching Peak.

He needed talismans.

At this moment, he saw many disciples from Sky-Watching Peak.

Although he had been here for almost half a month, he rarely went out.

Most people stayed in the first realm, with few in the second realm.

As for the third realm, he had never seen anyone.

Most likely, those who could reach the third realm in the outside fraction would directly join a peak for cultivation, much like Jade.

Many people recognized Ye Xiaowei, seeing the disciple badge hanging from his waist, and couldn't help but laugh mockingly.

"The lazy guy has actually become a disciple of our Sky-Watching Peak."

One person laughed and pointed at Ye Xiaowei with an extremely arrogant attitude.

"I don't know what Elder Chen was thinking. This person has mediocre talent. Even if he accidentally entered the realm, he will only bring shame to the sect when he leaves."

"It's all because of Junior Sister Jade. Now Junior Sister Jade is the pride of the Tianxuan Peak. Someone is just riding her coattails."

Listening to this, Ye Xiaowei unexpectedly laughed.

He walked into the Treasure Pavilion, exchanged for ten sheets of talisman paper, and then left.

He returned to his cave.

The Sword Trial Assembly was only three days later.

With his current cultivation level, he was only slightly better than the previously leaky roof of the house.

Therefore, he needed to use talisman magic to help himself secure a good ranking and then enter Goddess Peak.

Although he wasn't sure if Goddess Peak would accept him as a male disciple, he wanted to give it a try.

He had always been a diligent person; it's just that others couldn't see it.

The talisman was unfolded.

A little spiritual power began to gather at his fingertips.

There were three levels of talisman crafting.

The lower level used ink and brush for drawing symbols.

The middle level used the blood, Qi, and spiritual energy to create symbols.

The upper level used the heavens and earth as symbols, with oneself as the brush.

Ye Xiaowei naturally couldn't use the heavens and earth as symbols, but he didn't need a brush either.

Spiritual power leaped onto his fingertips, like small living elves.

They originated from the dry well.

His finger seemed to become the sharpest and cleanest brushstroke, drawing patterns on the yellow talisman paper.

A drop of sweat quietly gathered on Ye Xiaowei's pale cheek.

This was the first talisman.

It took nearly an hour, and the water stain in the almost dry well shrank by a circle.

He waved his big hand, and the second sheet of talisman paper leaped onto the table.

Without stopping, he continued making talismans.

In the small stone cave, the light of the talismans shone brightly...

And at this moment, on Tianxuan Peak, in a backyard.

Jade, who was originally meditating, suddenly opened her eyes.

The imprint of a full moon appeared in her pupils.

Tian Xuanzi was behind her.

"This is the Jade Body, the purest and cleanest Tao Body. You probably can compete with Zhao Shisan."

Jade nodded.

Although she had never met Zhao Shisan, everyone already regarded her as a rival.

"Come, today we won't contemplate the constitution. Let's go out for a walk."

"Master, where are we going?" Jade asked.

"The Sword Trial Assembly is in three days. Although you've just started, I still hope you can participate. It's not just for victory; it's also good for honing your skills."

Jade nodded.

"Go to Sword Peak and pick a sword."

Tian Xuanzi took a step out and began to fly.

Jade followed closely, not flying but gliding.

Vaguely, it seemed that everyone felt Junior Sister Jade had touched the threshold of the third realm, the Air Treading.

Sword Peak remained desolate.

From a distance, the entire mountain peak resembled a giant sword pointing straight to the sky.

When Jade arrived, Tian Xuanzi landed in front of her.

"Go. There, the sword aura is sharp. Your ability to withstand such a sword aura will determine the quality of the sword you obtain. Assess your strength; if you're not sure about the summit, don't force your way up."

Jade nodded and headed toward Sword Peak.

Upon entering the peak, countless sword auras came into view.

They seemed substantial like restless spirits moaning.

Though they were a hundred times sharper than evil spirits, they couldn't harm Jade.

She walked towards a higher place.

A thin light curtain always enveloped her, immune to the slightest harm from the sword aura.

This was the second realm, Spirit Awakening, representing the ability to freely use the spiritual energy from the small world, transforming it into swords and shields.

Finally, at a certain location on the mountainside, she saw a sword.

Although she could continue forward, her gaze was captivated by this particular sword.

She gave up moving forward and pointed her finger at the sword.

A breath belonging to Jade spread out, and the sword emerged from the ground.

The blade was narrow, more like a long knife, with a round moon at the hilt.

The entire sword was cold and devoid of worldly impurities.

Tian Xuanzi saw the sword Jade chose and smiled slightly.

"Well done."

Zhao Shisan also emerged after several days.

Many expected her to give up the sword at the summit of Sword Peak and choose another sword.

However, she didn't head to Sword Peak. She went to Tianxuan Peak.

No one knew what she and Tian Xuanzi had discussed.

On that afternoon, Zhao Shisan left Tianxuan Peak, bowing to the mountain peak before departing with the disciple's salute.

On that day, she also saw Jade by Tian Xuanzi's side.

The two exchanged glances as they passed each other.

Zhao Shisan smiled slightly as if she always felt that the two would have a battle.

For some reason, she thought of the man who had reached the summit of Sword Peak on the same day as her.

She was enough to stand out among the crowd; this was her capital.

At the same time, she anticipated having a rival like Jade.

The prodigies were always lonely.

Three days passed swiftly. In the long years of cultivation, it was like a withered leaf falling from a tall tree.

The Sword Trial Assembly finally began the next day.

This time, the Eternal Sect invited cultivators from various great realms, to join hands to witness this grand event.

This competition would be the first time in a hundred years for Eternal Sect to showcase all their geniuses to the outside world.

There was Zhao Shisan, already renowned in the Eastern State.

There was Jade, who declared her prowess quietly.

There were also many other figures resembling celestial beings.

This marked the splendid era of the Eternal Sect, as well as the splendid era of the entire Eastern State and Sacred Continent.

This event would signify that many geniuses would bloom in front of the world.

Meanwhile, Ye Xiaowei lay on the table, the dry well now empty.

Ten pieces of talismans were neatly arranged on the table.

He sighed. "Finally, they are done."
