Gate of Immortality

Yang Shi's soul qi channeled into his talisman brush as he started making the rank one Fireball talisman.

His Celestial View was active with his Azure Lotus Primordial spirit. Yang Shi could monitor every variation of his strokes.

The ink flowed over the paper as Yang Shi's gaze became focused. His hands moved slowly as the talisman paper was filled with lines.

He could feel his soul qi was depleting rapidly, however, there is still a lot in reserve. After half an hour, Yang Shi finally stopped as he looked satisfied.

The talisman paper flashed with light as the symbols on it seem to wriggle. The pitch black ink turned to a flaming red color as the paper became straight and hard.

Yang Shi picked it as he poured a bit of his spiritual qi into it. The symbols on the talisman shone as the talisman turned into a ball of flames. The flames were the size of a basketball, burning furiously with terrifying power.

" Hmm, although this Fireball talisman looks good, it can only hurt the third stage of Primordial Spirit realm cultivators and lower."

" Moreover, it is not much useful in actual life and death combat." Yang Shi chuckled as he dispersed the flames.

In actual combat, win and lose were determined in a blink of an eye. Unless the opponent is immobile or dumb, it is very easy to dodge the attack of Fireball talisman.

" Anyway, It is good that I can now make rank one talismans. I should start working on making True grade weapon soon." Yang Shi sat cross-legged as he recovered his soul qi.

Some Rune master focused on making only one type of talismans. Some Adept rank rune master can only make three of four types of talismans.

However, a true Adept rank Rune master should create more than a dozen types of rank one talisman. This was the qualitative difference between same rank Rune masters.

Not only in rune inscription, but every profession also has the same issue. Take the example of Yang Shi.

He was a Master grade Blacksmith, however, he can forge different types of the treasure of Quasi True rank. But, most Master grade blacksmiths of Azure Feather Ancient Kingdom were unable to do the same.

" Hmm, I should create another one." Yang Shi mused as he started to make talismans again. After a few hours, he finally stopped as he stretched his arm.

" Ahh, It feels so good. The more I use my soul qi, the smoother it gets. Hehe, Supplementary path has its own advantage." Yang Shi smiled.

" Ah, there are still many orders pending. That Elder Cheng's cauldron isn't done yet. Anyway, There is still another day for that." Yang Shi chuckled.

Today, a person came to deliver the materials for Elder Cheng's cauldron. Yang Shi was astonished to see many rare ores and metals were in the storage pouch in adequate amounts.

Even if he failed to forge a cauldron, there are enough materials to start forging another one. Yang Shi felt that he can easily pocket a good amount of materials.

" I am sure that Elder Cheng wasn't a petty person who would ask the remaining material." Yang Shi thought inwardly.

" Young Master, Someone wishes to meet you." Bai Ruxue suddenly came as she called Yang Shi.

" Meet me?" Yang Shi mumbled as he got up and went with Bai Ruxue.

Yang Shi suddenly stopped as he looked at the person standing in front of him.

" Really? I never thought that even you would come here." Yang Shi laughed forcefully.

" Well, I heard that your shop is doing well, so I came to take a look." It was none other than Old Ghost.

" She isn't here?" Yang Shi looked behind Old Ghost as he asked.

" Not really. She has some work to do. Why? Missing her?" Old Ghost laughed strangely.

" Heh, Think whatever you want." Ruxue, Bring some tea for our guests." Yang Shi looked at Bai Ruxue as he spoke.

" As you wish." Bai Ruxue nodded as she went to the kitchen.

" Nice lass. Her spiritual qi flow is very smooth and her aura is also imposing." Old Ghost looked at Bai Ruxue's back as he commented.

" Who knows? Maybe her aptitude is similar to your princess?" Yang Shi chuckled. Old Ghost trembled as he heard Yang Shi.

" Princess? I don't know what you are talking about?" Old Ghost smiled stiffly as he spoke slowly.

" Are we still playing hide and seek game? If you want, I can also play along." Yang Shi shrugged.

Many ancient powerhouses existed across eras. Although some of them got destroyed in the flow of time, many of them still stand like mountains to this date.

From the performance of Shen Yanyu and Heaven Saber Seven Arts from Old Ghost, Yang Shi connected many dots.

Celestial Sea Plane was the home of the Samsara Emperor. He had spent time here more than anyone. From the memory of Samsara Emperor, Yang Shi understood many things.

" Really? Why don't you tell what you know?" Old Ghost smiled.

" So, What should I say? Let me guess, Crimson Heaven Great Empire, Shen Clan, and Dominating Saber Mountain?" Yang Shi spoke in a low voice.

Hearing the words of Yang Shi, Old Ghost's eyes narrowed. Suddenly, Yang Shi felt that the space around him froze like solid ice as a terrifying pressure fell on him.

Yang Shi's veins bulged as he couldn't breathe properly. He felt the divine sense of Old Ghost was crushing him like a mountain.

Yang Shi immediately urged his Azure Lotus primordial spirit. Suddenly, an azure aura enveloped him and his soul, making the pressure lessened.

The seal of Samsara Emperor on his soul flashed as it repelled the pressure of Old Ghost. It was like an enraged beast who felt someone was trying to suppress it.

" Hmm?" Old Ghost's gaze flickered as he saw Yang Shi was sitting without much difficulty. " Who are you? Don't you know, without enough strength, knowing secrets can be fatal?" Old Ghost laughed coldly.

" Although strength is necessary, having a powerful backing is also a must need a thing. Don't you wonder who is behind me?" Yang Shi smiled.

Although he was acting normally, his back was drenched in sweat. Yang Shi could feel the pressure of Old Ghost down to his bones.

" Really? Where are you from? Hidden Dragon Sect? Nine Imperial Gates?" Old Ghost questioned.

" Who knows? But the thing is, I know you are wounded. I want to se till when you are able to use your divine sense?" Yang Shi smiled.

" Yo-You! How did you know?" Old Ghost's facial expression changed as he stopped pressuring Yang Shi.

" Although I am a Blacksmith, I also dabble some book of medicines, I know you are an Origin Core Realm expert."

" However, Your origin core is damaged. Your power is also very limited and you can't use your divine sense too much." Yang Shi spoke slowly.

" But it is enough to crush you." Old Ghost's eyes became cold.

" That's true. But the thing is, Don't you want to repair your origin core? Don't you want to recover to your peak?" Yang Shi blinked his eyes.

" Brat, I have been seeing you when you are just at Spiritual Ascension Realm. We have been working together the moment you joined Blood Moon Hall."

" I think I should believe in you." Old Ghost smiled amicably as the pressure disappeared.

Bai Ruxue entered as she put the tray of tea. Old Ghost lifted the cup as he sipped the tea.

" Nice tea! Its flavor is refreshing." Old Ghost praised.

" Ruxue, Please go back to your room. We need to talk something private." Yang hi spoke softly. Bai Ruxue nodded as she left.

" Don't worry, Brat. I trust you.." Old Ghost laughed as he drank tea.
