Silver Talismans!
Talismans were divided according to power. There were a total of five colors, from strongest to weakest: gold, silver, purple, red, and yellow. Normal Feng Shui Talismans and those below the Glory of Knowledge realm were all yellow talismans. At the Glory of Knowledge realm, one could make powerful red talismans.
As for the strongest gold and silver talismans, that was the monopoly of Sky Masters.
Purple Talismans were a different type of talisman. Although they were of a higher rank than red talismans, their power was hard to say. This was because these Purple Talismans were sets of talismans and not made up of individual talismans. Some Purple Talismans were made up of yellow, red, silver, and even gold talismans. Their power was even stronger than gold talismans.
However, these kinds of talisman sets were very rare. Most of them were passed down in places like Dragon Tiger Mountain. In reality, these kinds of talismans were rarely seen.
The Death Scripture had many ways to make Purple Talismans. Back then, when I moved Chief Liu's grave, I made a Small Deception Talisman. It was one of the purple "Deception Talismans".
As for the extremely powerful Silver Talismans and Golden Talismans, although they could only be made by the Celestial Master Realm, there was a huge difference between them. Normally, after reaching the Celestial Master Realm, most people could make Silver Talismans, but not Golden Talismans. Only those who had a deep understanding of the Dao of Talismans and had a cultivation base that reached a higher realm among the Celestial Masters would have a chance of successfully making Golden Talismans. Their power was extremely terrifying, but they were extremely rare.
Even the Metaphysics Society and Dragon Tiger Mountain might not have a few gold talismans, let alone the Feng Shui families. It was almost impossible for it to appear in our Pressure Point Completion realm battles. It was impossible even for the obsidian stone, because the value of gold talismans was far higher than obsidian stone.
In other words, in this competition, the highest that could appear was a silver talisman.
And Elder Li had given me two silver talismans in one go. I was almost certain that no one in this competition would be my match!
Sitting on the toilet bowl, my heart was filled with excitement. After a while, I finally calmed down. I carefully held the silver talismans in the wooden box and closed my eyes. I carefully used my Dao Qi to sense the dao intent contained in the silver talismans.
Although the silver talismans were strong, I had to at least understand their use before using them.
After comprehending for a while, I quickly sensed an extremely sharp aura from the first talisman. There was no doubt that this was an offensive talisman of the metal attribute. There was an extremely powerful offensive Taoist technique sealed inside. Just by comprehending it with my Taoist Qi, I felt a chill run down my spine. It was obvious how powerful it was.
As for the second silver talisman, there was no need to comprehend it. There was a line of words clearly written on it — "Thunder City General Marshal Ma Talisman".
It was a Celestial Master Sect's Thirty-six Heavenly General Talisman. Its function was similar to the Mao Mountain Sect's Mao Mountain Talisman. However, the Mao Mountain Sect's Mao Mountain Talisman was very random. Even a superior Mao Mountain Talisman might not be able to invite a truly powerful heavenly god or heavenly general. The Thirty-six Heavenly General Talisman was much more precise. The one in front of them was the talisman used to invite Marshal Ma.
Marshal Ma was the "Lord Ma" that the people often spoke of. There was a common saying, "Don't you know that the Lord Ma has three eyes?" This was referring to one of the 36 Heavenly Generals of Thunderclap City, Marshal Ma.
According to the legends, Lord Ma was one of the twenty-eight constellations in the sky, the Sun Horse of Star.
However, in the Daoist memorial tablets, Lord Ma's official name was "Spirit Official Marshal Ma", also known as the "Three-Eyed Spirit".
The Thirty-six Heavenly Generals of Thunderclap City were divine generals with peerless heavenly power. It wasn't hard to imagine the power of summoning them.
The value of this talisman was even higher than the metal attribute talisman with an extremely strong attack power.
I was very satisfied with these two silver talismans. The only thing I was puzzled about was why Mr. Li, the Patriarch of the Metaphysics Society, had a talisman from Mount Longhu. It was really strange.
However, I guessed that Mr. Li had exchanged them with someone from Mount Longhu.
I didn't think too much about it. After putting the two silver talismans away, I left the bathroom and returned to the room I had stayed in.
When I returned, an unfamiliar member of the Metaphysics Society was waiting for me. When he saw me, he hurried to tell me that the competition was about to begin. He asked me to hurry.
Li Encheng, Zou Yu, and I followed the member to the hall where the Young Phoenix Gathering had been held.
When we arrived, the other members of the Metaphysical families had already gathered in the hall. The participants were standing by the platform, and the seats below were filled with people from the Metaphysics Society and other families.
I saw Lu Zhenyang standing by the platform. He seemed to be staring at the door. When I noticed him, he also stared at me. His eyes were filled with murderous intent.
However, this time, he was much calmer than before. He didn't take the initiative to talk to me. Instead, he wore a cold smile on his face. His left hand, which was missing his forearm, scratched his neck. It was obvious that he was provoking me.
I just smiled at him and didn't reply. Instead, I turned around and looked at the seats below.
As soon as I turned around, my eyes shrank. Lu Zhenyang called Third Grandpa, Lu Zining. He was sitting in the first row with Yang Shilong and the others.
Lu Zining, who was in the Sky Master realm, was also there!
His expression was much calmer than Lu Zhenyang's. When I looked at him, he only glanced at me before looking away. It was obvious that he didn't care about me.
I also quickly looked away. I clenched and relaxed my fists. After a few times, I finally relaxed.
Lu Zhenyang was hateful, but Lu Zining was even more hateful. He was the one who killed my parents!
My hatred for him wasn't any less than Lu Zhenyang's.
However, I had no choice but to hide my hatred. He was a Sky Master. I had a good chance to take revenge on Lu Zhenyang during the competition. However, against a Sky Master like Lu Zining, I didn't know when I would get the chance to take revenge. I might not even be able to do it in my entire life.
Thinking about that, the excitement I had when I saw the two silver talismans disappeared. I clenched my teeth and urged myself. I must quickly study Yao and reach Sky Master as soon as possible. Every day I thought about the Lu family's vengeance was another day of torment in my heart.
After a long time, I finally calmed down. I didn't look at Lu Zining anymore and threw him to the back of my mind.
At that moment, on the platform, President Gu personally drew lots for the twelve participants. Then, he announced the results.
The nine aristocratic families of the Metaphysics Society were: Qinling Han family, Mount Mang Zhang family, Beijing Lu family, Chengdu Yang family, Lu Liang Lai family, Jinling Xu family, Kaifeng Bao family, Xiangyang Liu family, and Hui Zhou Chen family.
These aristocratic families were either located in famous historical cities or Taoist holy lands. However, from the names of these families, it was obvious that none of them were easy to get along with.
I didn't care about how the other people were grouped. I only remembered that I was grouped with Hui Zhou Chen family's Chen Yadong.
Hui Zhou was an ancient name that was no longer used. Its main jurisdiction included the present-day Huangshan City, Xuan City's Jixi County, Jiangxi County's Wuyuan County, and other places. It could also be considered a famous historical city. However, more importantly, there was Mount Qi Yun. In ancient times, it was called "White Mountain" or "Cloud Mountain". It was a famous place of the Quanzhen Sect and was one of the four famous mountains of Taoism.
Since the Chen Family was a famous family, it was normal to have a family like the Chen Family. Although Hui Zhou was famous, and Mount Qi Yun was even more famous, compared to the other aristocratic families, Chen Yadong was the weakest. My luck wasn't bad.
After the lots were drawn, no one had any objections, and soon, the competition officially began in accordance with the order.
Coincidentally, Chen Yadong and I were assigned to the first match. Under the gazes of the crowd, we walked to the platform and began the first match of the competition.
Although Chen Yadong's power was the weakest, even a lion would use its full strength to capture a rabbit. I didn't dare to be negligent and steadily took out my Heavenly Fan and Yin-Yang Yama Luo Brush. While I prepared my defense, I tried to lure the Yin and Yang fishes to attack.
Chen Yadong was also testing the waters at the start. He only used his magic tool to fight against me. However, even if I didn't use the dark green power, my Dao energy was still more than half of an ordinary person's. Soon, Chen Yadong showed signs of defeat. Without any other choice, he took out a red talisman. After receiving the Dao energy, he took advantage of the gap between the magic tool's attacks and threw it at me.
This talisman was completely different from the one that the Metaphysics Association had given me. It was a true attack talisman. The Dao energy condensed in midair and formed an enormous flame. It carried boundless heat as it charged towards me.
