I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them? - Chapter 481

Chapter 481: 265
 

Moreover, he would also take on the role of the Alliance Hierarch of the Wanshi Alliance in Yuzhou, leading its members to claim a place for themselves.

He took out a Communication Talisman to contact Yu Gao, obtaining intelligence from the outside world.

Then, Fang Hao began to delve into the art of talismans.

After refining his Divine Intent, whether it was Artifact Refining or Formation, he had made tremendous advancements, and even some Qimen techniques were now accessible, demonstrating their basic power.

After five days of research and repeated trials, and ruining some materials, the first talisman formation was born.

This was a Mist Formation Talisman!

Once activated, it would produce a layer of mist, enveloping people within, with effects that obstructed sight, perception, and Divine Soul Force.

“Finally succeeded!”

Although the Mist Talisman was quite ordinary and low-priced as a Jade Talisman, it was a breakthrough from zero to one.

The success of crafting this mist showed that his understanding of talismanic arts was correct.

Other Jade Talismans with different effects could also be made using this method.

At the moment Fang Hao crafted the Mist Talisman, the Daoist Golden Book atop Li Xuan’s Spirit Pedestal opened.

“Your disciple has gained insight into talisman crafting, and you have received the true resolution of the talisman path!”

Li Xuan rejoiced silently. What Fang Hao devised, the method of crafting the Jade Talisman, was to embed a formation within the Jade Talisman and seal it with a prohibition, locking the formation’s power within the talisman.

Once activated, the prohibition would open, and the sealed formation power would initiate.

It must be said that Fang Hao showed extraordinary talent in Artifact Refining.

…

“Brother Xu, Brother Meng, good to see you again!”

Shen Haizhou looked at Xu Yan and Meng Chong, feeling a deep sense of admiration.

These two brothers were truly elusive, as the Spirit Sect and the Su Family conducted a thorough search of Yuzhou, yet found not a single trace of them. Instead, they discovered a covertly formed force of Loose Cultivators.

This force of Loose Cultivators even contained Divine Refinement Celestials, more than one, shocking the Spirit Sect and the noble families of Yuzhou.

After being dealt a blow, this force of Loose Cultivators seemed to have crumbled.

It was rumored that the leader of these Loose Cultivators, a Martial Artist in the late Divine Refinement stage, was severely wounded by the Great Elder Zhu Liang of the Spirit Sect. Whether he survived or was left crippled was unknown.

“Brother Shen, where are the Spirit Sect’s Spirit Crystal Mines, any intel?”

Xu Yan cut straight to the chase, getting directly to the point.

Shen Haizhou felt pleased upon hearing this, took out a prepared map, spread it on the table, and said, “This is where the Spirit Sect’s Spirit Crystal Mines are located. Now, these two mines, though publicly owned by the Spirit Sect, are just two small mines.

“But these two, they are the core Spirit Crystal Mines of the Spirit Sect. It’s very likely that Earth Soul Flowers grow in these mines.

“This is what can currently be known as the most critical Spirit Crystal Mines controlled by the Spirit Sect. If there exist larger and more concealed mines, that remains uncertain.”

Shen Haizhou pointed to the mines marked on the map and explained.

The gazes of Xu Yan and Meng Chong fell upon the two large mines. Their target was undoubtedly the Spirit Sect’s core large mines, especially since these mines reportedly contained the Earth Soul Flower, a type of Spiritual Medicine.

“Brother Xu, Brother Meng, the core large mines of the Spirit Sect are guarded by Divine Refinement Celestials, making it impossible to swiftly empty the Spirit Crystals. From my perspective, we might as well take out these small Spirit Mines first, which would still deal a notable blow to the Spirit Sect.”

Shen Haizhou swallowed nervously as Xu Yan and Meng Chong stared fixedly at the large mines, causing him to feel uneasy.

If they really succeeded in taking these large mines, the Spirit Sect would undoubtedly go mad.

They might even go to great lengths to call on external help!

He was also worried that his activities of providing intelligence might be exposed.

Even though, up to now, nobody knew of his secret interactions with Xu Yan and Meng Chong, not to mention these intel disclosures.

Yet, in this world, there were no secrets that couldn’t be unearthed, and if this one leaked, it would spell trouble for him.

“The small mines are uninteresting, it’s the two large mines for us.”

Xu Yan exclaimed excitedly.

Shen Haizhou swallowed again, then said, “But the mines are vast, we can’t possibly extract everything. The person I was looking for is gone, and without his Mountain Devourer Toad, how can we quickly transport so many Spirit Crystals?

“Isn’t it the Earth Soul Flower that Brother Xu and Brother Meng are after? It’s still just a rumor that the flower even exists there.

“Furthermore, the Earth Soul Flower lies deep within the Spirit Crystal Mines, and if you can’t exit quickly upon entering, you could be trapped, which would really be perilous.”

Xu Yan patted him on the shoulder, saying, “These are small matters, Brother Shen need not worry. Your friend is no longer necessary, as my brothers already have plans in place.

“If the Earth Soul Flower indeed exists within, a potion crafted from it will certainly include a share for Brother Shen.”

Shen Haizhou wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, already able to envision the Spirit Sect’s frenzied reaction. He reminded them, “Once this job is done, Brother Xu and Brother Meng had better leave Yuzhou immediately, or the Spirit Sect will truly go crazy.”

Meng Chong grinned widely and said, “It’ll do the Spirit Sect good to go mad. Two measly Spirit Mines are nothing; taking the Spirit Sect’s treasure vault is the ultimate goal.”

Hearing this, Shen Haizhou broke into a cold sweat; this was insanity, an audaciousness way too bold, where did this confidence come from?

The Spirit Sect, hailed as the premier sect of Yuzhou, was no joke with its formidable prowess and rich foundation. Even if its own strength faltered, it could seek external allies.

It held certain connections with powerful Spirit Sects in other regions, even considered to have mighty backers.

“Brother Shen, we’ll rely on you for Spirit Sect intel, focusing on watching Zhu Liang and Divine Refinement Martial Artists, as well as the surroundings of the large mines. We will regroup after some days.”

Xu Yan stowed the map and looked at Shen Haizhou.

Shen Haizhou gritted his teeth and replied, “No problem, leave it to me!”

Having already boarded this pirate ship, backing out now would only make him appear useless.

Moreover, bringing down the Yuzhou’s premier Spirit Sect, wasn’t that exhilarating!

Xu Yan and Meng Chong took their leave, returning to their manor with the map in hand.

“This is the Spirit Sect’s large mines, the Earth Soul Flower, the Divine Spiritual Medicine!”

Fang Hao was overwhelmed with excitement; born from humble beginnings, he was now poised to strike a major blow against a major Spirit Sect!

“Is there really an Earth Soul Flower? I have a pill recipe that precisely needs such a rare Spiritual Medicine. If I manage to craft it, it will significantly enhance Divine Intent, accelerating cultivation in the Divine Intent Realm.”

Su Lingxiu was equally thrilled.

“The possibility is quite high.”

The Spirit Sect’s bounty on him included the Earth Soul Flower, which was known to grow within Spirit Crystal Mines.

The three brothers, after deliberating, sent a message for Yu Gao to come by.

After breaking through to the Divine Intent Realm, Fang Hao had re-forged the Communication Talisman. It could now communicate over a range of at least a hundred thousand miles, possibly tens of thousands more.

Additionally, the Communication Talisman added a message-recording function, allowing the addition of new communicators beyond just set users within the talisman.

He also crafted some Jade Talismans, like the Mist Talisman, crucial for bewildering enemies and buying time for escape.

When Yu Gao heard Xu Yan’s plan, his scalp tingled; these three brothers were truly audacious and reckless, utterly insane!

Not only did they want to hit the Spirit Sect’s mines, but they also planned to create an opportunity to infiltrate and take down the Spirit Sect’s treasury!

Even he, a Martial Artist at the late Divine Refinement stage, felt a shiver down his spine upon hearing this.

“Do we really want to go through with this?”

Yu Gao asked, cold sweat covering his face.

Xu Yan’s brothers gave him a disdainful look; this former Alliance Hierarch of Wanshi had too small a nerve!

“Protector Yu, if the Wanshi Alliance keeps lying low like this, it’ll lose its spirit, its blood, its courage, all will be wasted away.

“Lacking blood, lacking spirit, lacking courage, even if the Wanshi Alliance re-emerges, it will miss the fighting spirit. This won’t do; even while hiding, we must not forget to create havoc in the shadows!”

Fang Hao sighed deeply.

For the Wanshi Alliance to rise, it relied on him, the new Alliance Hierarch!

“Alright, I’ll listen to the Hierarch’s orders!”

Yu Gao gritted his teeth and said.

The Hierarch was right; they could not lose their spirit, or their courage!

“That’s the spirit.”

Fang Hao took out a dozen Jade Talismans and handed them to Yu Gao, saying, “These are Mist Talismans. Once activated, they will produce a large cloud of mist, hindering enemy perception and Divine Soul Force, buying escape time.”

Yu Gao took the Mist Talismans, his face full of astonishment; besides the Communication Talisman, there was actually something this amazing?

“Give it a try and get familiar with it.”

Fang Hao reminded him.

“Yes, Hierarch!”

Yu Gao launched a Jade Talisman, activating a Mist Talisman. With a boom, a massive cloud of mist descended swiftly, enveloping dozens of feet around. His Divine Soul Force probed forward, only to find it unable to penetrate the mist.
