Chapter 725 – First Look at the Jade Talisman
After hearing Han Li’s words, Old Ancestor Linghu’s brows furrowed and he stopped saying anything for a moment, instead slowly picking up his teacup and smacking it.
”How could old me not know these words spoken by Fellow Daoist Han. But I’m not the same as fellow Daoist, old me has been in the Yellow Maple Valley for more than a thousand years, and my feelings towards it are far more than anyone else’s, so naturally I don’t want the Yellow Maple Valley over there to break its legacy as soon as this side sits down. It seems that you are not interested in fame and fortune. However, if you are willing to agree to inherit the position of Yellow Maple Valley Elder, I am willing to give away some of my own belongings after my seated death, and there is no lack of heavy treasures that I have collected over the years, which will be of great use to you in your future cultivation.” Linghu Old Ancestor suddenly surprised Han Li by saying.
”Fellow Daoist’s family belongings left for me? If I remember correctly, don’t you have disciples!” Han Li’s heart first jumped when he heard this, but he subconsciously narrowed his eyes for a moment before calmly asking.
”The highest cultivation level of my disciples is only the middle JieDan cultivation level, leaving them is just inviting disaster. It’s just that if no daoists show up, I’ll also dispose of most of the treasures separately and won’t leave them within the Yellow Maple Valley.” Old Ancestor Linghu said with a cold smile.
Han Li stroked his chin and pondered.
To say that he wasn’t moved by Old Ancestor Linghu’s words just now was certainly impossible. However, he was equally clear that once he accepted the position of Elder of the Yellow Maple Valley, he was afraid that he would immediately be faced with a series of thorny issues such as the Six Factions and the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, which were not things that could be smoothed out in a short period of time. Moreover, as the only Elder of the Yellow Maple Valley, he was certainly in a position of power, but he wouldn’t be as free as he was in the Falling Clouds Sect. More importantly, there were also some difficult to face issues involving Nangong Wan and the Moon Covering Sect.
”Thank you for your kindness, fellow Daoist, but Mister Han still thinks that the matter of joining the Yellow Maple Valley should not be mentioned.” After pondering for quite a while, Han Li still shook his head and refused.
When Old Man Linghu heard this, he didn’t become angry, only his face was filled with helplessness.
”With such conditions that Fellow Daoist is unwilling to agree to, it seems that Fellow Daoist Han genuinely doesn’t want to get involved in the muddy waters of our six sects. If that’s the case, how about I alter the conditions a bit.” Old Ancestor Linghu said after sighing.
”How to alter it!” Han Li’s expression twitched with curiosity.
”Let’s put it this way, you do not need to be an Elder of our Yellow Maple Valley, but how about I pay you three heavy treasures in exchange for you helping out the Yellow Maple Valley three times in your lifetime? Of course this kind of assistance is only limited to what you, Taoist Friend, can do.” Old Ancestor Linghu said with a bitter smile.
”To lend a helping hand three times within the scope of one’s ability, this condition is not excessive, I can agree to it.” For this request of this Linghu Old Ancestor, Han Li thought briefly before quickly nodding his head and agreeing.
Fox old ancestor face with a hint of a smile, then reached out from the waist to touch out three things on the table, actually seems to have long been prepared.
Han Li did not say anything, his eyes fell on these three things, slightly measured one or two. A blue saddle wood Я column No a red jade bottle, a black jade pendant thing.
Han Li did not have the courtesy to pick up the blue saddle man first, no P “hollow locust hazel kind of school warm and soft, gently, as if it were nothing, which made Han Li eat a shock, gazing carefully, with his current insight, he actually did not know what kind of material was used to refine and become.
”This is an ancient treasure I obtained in my early years, following me for a short period of time, I call it the ‘Blue Light Shield’. This treasure’s aptitude is not small, especially in the face of fire-attribute technique attacks, it is even more marvelous, you will know that what I say is true once you try it later.” Old Ancestor Linghu looked at the shield in Han Li’s hands and said with a hidden hint of reluctance.
Han Li stroked the shield with one hand for a moment or two before placing the object back on the table, but knew in his heart that this treasure was indeed unusual, and that the other party should not be lying. Next, he picked up the red jade bottle.
”In the bottle is a demonic beast inner dan that I obtained only after I sneaked into the depths of the Mulan grassland alone back then and exterminated a level 7 Iron Winged Eagle demonic beast, which can be considered a rare and extremely rare material. Whether it’s for alchemy or another use, it’s not a small use.” Seeing this, Old Ancestor Linghu introduced again.
”A grade seven demonic elixir!” When Han Li heard this, his face did not show the slightest expression, but he sighed in his heart. Although a grade seven demonic dan was considered a rare and unusual thing in the South of Heaven, it was really a chicken rib-like existence for him.
So he slightly opened the bottle with a smile, took a look at it, then re-capped the bottle and casually put it back to its original position, his eyes finally fell on the last thing. But this time, that Linghu Old Ancestor smiled wryly and did not take the initiative to open his mouth to introduce anything.
Instead, Han Li gazed flickeringly at this cool jade pendant without saying a word.
”Could this be a jade talisman refined by an ancient cultivator?” Han Li gazed at it for a while, and with some uncertainty, finally spoke.
When Old Ancestor Linghu heard Han Li say this, a trace of surprise flashed across his face.
”Fellow Daoist Han has seen this type of jade talisman before? As far as I know, this kind of talisman unique to the ancient period has long been lost in Tiannan for a long time, and there are even fewer local cultivators who know about it.” Old Ancestor Linghu asked curiously.
”It’s only that I occasionally know a Taoist friend who knows about this matter, and I’ve heard him say something about it.” Han Li smiled faintly and said lightly.
”This jade talisman was obtained by the old man during one of his nine-death adventures. This item is definitely not trivial, although I still haven’t mastered the correct way to use this item, and can only wield a little bit of the jade talisman’s power, but that’s the case, the jade talisman’s magical ability is also afraid of scaring people, and I’ve used this item to defeat strong enemies several times. It should be a fine product carefully refined by whichever ancient cultivator who is proficient in the Rune Dao.” Old Ancestor Linghu said as he waved his hand at the black jade talisman on the table.
The jade talisman “whoosh” sound, was the old man sucked into the hands, and then mouth a few ancient low incantation sound out, and then hand raised, the jade talisman into a mass of black light, and then the cold wind blew through the cold, a demonic black and red hand, suddenly emerged in the head of the old man of Linghu.
This demonic beast red shiny, five fingers unfolded, a few feet in size, and from time to time there is a black Yin fire flashing. An inexplicable eerie atmosphere, with the appearance of this strange hand, filled the entire tavern.
Han Li’s face was shocked and his heart was in awe.
”This is the only divine ability that I can only use after obtaining this jade talisman and delving into it for more than hundreds of years, and the Xuanhua Ghost Hand that it transforms into, unless it is the most yang and rigid or something like that, almost nothing can’t be grasped. And as long as it is seized, a little less ancient treasures, immediately lost their powers, obediently captured. The top grade treasures will also lose their spirit and their power will be greatly reduced.” Linghu Old Ancestor said, while under the movement of God’s thoughts, the black hand suddenly skyrocketed twice as much, and gently fished towards a nearby wooden table.
The black Yin fire noiselessly swept past, the wooden table was instantly reduced to nothing before it even touched, as if it had never existed.
Seeing this, Han Li sucked in a breath of cool air.
This thing looks a bit like the devil’s way to split the gods into forms to attack the enemy’s subtle magical powers, but the black hand is from the jade talisman above, naturally there is no worry about the damage of the split gods, and look at the strange appearance of that Yin fire, should be another place of the magic.
”This jade talisman must also have other wonders, but unfortunately I do not have much time, there is no opportunity to realize the secret. You are young, but there is still a lot of hope. However, the power contained within the talisman has been used up for the most part, so Fellow Daoist Han will have to use it carefully in the future.” Linghu Old Ancestor said, rushing that black hand a little finger, the big hand re-transformed into a black light, flew back to the desktop line, revealing the original shape of the jade talisman.
Han Li had a smile on his face, but was interested in the last jade talisman. Even if this talisman is not as powerful as what Old Man Fox said, he can also from this ancient talisman, separate reference to the ancient cultivator’s talisman Dao insights, which will certainly not be small help to him in the future.
So Han Li saw that the old fox ancestor had finished his introduction, and immediately flicked his sleeve robe towards the desktop like a breeze, and the three things immediately disappeared, but the desktop had three more white jade crystalline array disks out.
”These three array disks are all magic weapons that I personally refined, others cannot imitate them. In the future, if Yellow Maple Valley truly encounters any trouble that I can resolve after you sit down, I will not excuse myself.” Han Li raised his gaze at Old Man Linghu and calmly said.
”Good, with these words from Fellow Daoist Han on the line, I’ll count myself as having done my best for the matters behind me.” Old Ancestor Linghu smiled and said frankly.
However, since he had finished talking about business, Han Li had no intention of staying here for much longer and immediately got up to take his leave. Old Ancestor Linghu didn’t stay much longer either, and after a few polite words, he watched Han Li descend the stairs and leave without any panic.
Then the smile on his face withdrew and he stared at the teapot on the table for a moment, seemingly lost in contemplation.
Han Li left the teahouse, and did not immediately return to the residence, but lifted to look at the sky, randomly find a secluded corner to take out the previous Tianji door white-robed elder to his jade, with divine sense carefully scanned again, face showed a trace of hesitation.
