Chapter 180: Master, Sang Biao Is Scared, Save Me!
Ming Zhaoshuang understood his meaning. Dong Fuyu knew her parents and was aware of her background, but he was unwilling to tell her the truth.
It was even possible that he and her parents had some unspeakable secrets!
Her eyebrows slightly raised as she said, “So what if I’m facing you? Since I am his child, you should know that I will not fear you.”
Dong Fuyu was briefly stunned upon hearing this, then smiled, “It’s just a pity that you are a sword cultivator.”
If she were also a talisman cultivator, how astonishing and admirable she would have been.
Dong Fuyu did not believe that Ming Zhaoshuang was a dual cultivator of talismans and swords, as only those with a Spiritually Connected Sacred Body could cultivate two paths exclusively.
Since Ming Zhaoshuang’s arm had been severed, cultivating swordsmanship was the superior choice, and there was no need to cultivate talisman arts.
That was why he felt regret.
Ming Zhaoshuang was not angered by his misunderstanding and smiled, “So what if I’m a sword cultivator, or a talisman cultivator? As long as I cultivate diligently, my cultivation will not fail me.”
As she spoke, she held a summoning talisman, her blood blooming.
“Gu Diao, go!”
Intertwined with blood, the talisman radiating snow-white spiritual power instantly grew larger, and from it emerged a giant osprey with flapping wings.
This Gu Diao was much larger and fiercer than the one Ming Zhaoshuang had executed before. Its water-colored scales even revealed wisps of purple flowing light, making it appear incredibly ferocious.
At first glance, it was no less imposing than the divine beast Qiongqi, second only to the three Mahayana Stage cultivators.
After all, its cultivation had reached the Late Mahayana Stage.
Spreading its wings, the Gu Diao let out a sharp cry and pounced directly at Dong Fuyu.
Dong Fuyu’s gaze flickered slightly, as if he hadn’t expected to see his Honored Master’s talisman here, or rather, a summoning talisman co-created by his Honored Master and Saint Feng He.
The other three Mahayana Stage cultivators could not help but panic.
Although Dong Fuyu’s cultivation had reached the Tribulation Crossing Early Stage, he was, after all, a Talisman Master, and his combat ability was weak.
And the Gu Diao was a Heaven Rank fierce beast, posing a significant threat to him.
Dong Fuyu threw out a defense talisman, which managed to block the Gu Diao’s attack. Then, the sword cultivator who had been fighting Sang Biao immediately withdrew and shielded Dong Fuyu.
Dong Fuyu looked at Ming Zhaoshuang and asked, “Not long ago, the Talisman Saint’s Secret Realm collapsed. Was that your doing?”
He recalled correctly that the Gu Diao’s summoning talisman could only be obtained by breaking the formation within the Talisman Saint’s Secret Realm, and Ming Zhaoshuang happened to be from the lower realm.
The collapse of the Talisman Saint’s Secret Realm did not cause any ripple in the Upper Realm, as they did not care for empty secret realms. However, for Setting Sun Mountain Range, it was a secret realm left behind by their Old Ancestor, so they naturally paid attention.
That was why he had such a suspicion.
Ming Zhaoshuang smiled, “Since I am his bloodline, what’s wrong with bringing down a secret realm?”
Ming Zhaoshuang had now confirmed whose bloodline she was from, along with Ming Cangsheng.
Since that was the case, there was no point in lingering here.
Dong Fuyu frowned, “But you are a sword cultivator.”
Ming Zhaoshuang laughed wildly, “I told you, since I am the daughter of the former Palace Master, bringing down a Talisman Saint’s Secret Realm and a Great Sui Secret Realm is nothing at all.”
Saying this, Ming Zhaoshuang waved her hands and shouted at Sang Biao, “Mimi, unleash ultimate skill!”
Mimi: “?”
What is an ultimate skill? Mimi doesn’t understand?
Mimi only knows how to pat, pounce, and bite.
But since Master said so, Mimi will reluctantly unleash her ultimate skill.
Sang Biao let out a roar, its sound intense, almost shattering the entire landscape. He leaped before the two Mahayana Stage experts, showing no fear, even surpassing them.
His sharp claws and teeth became his strength, forcing these two masters to retreat steadily.
With the sword cultivator’s help, Dong Fuyu suppressed the Gu Diao with ease. However, he looked at his teammates who couldn’t win against two opponents and Gu Cixi, who was merely watching and not helping, and felt a surge of anger.
He said to the Mahayana Stage sword cultivator, “Go suppress the Qiongqi. This Gu Diao cannot defeat me.”
Then, he turned to Gu Cixi and said, “Capture her for me!”
“Her” naturally referred to Ming Zhaoshuang.
It was just a pity that Ming Zhaoshuang, having obtained the answer she wanted, had no intention of staying here.
She recalled Fantuan, controlled her sword with frost, and sped towards Sang Biao.
Ming Zhaoshuang shouted, “Mimi! Come back!”
Upon hearing this, Mimi, though unsure what she intended to do, immediately patted them away and wagged her tail as she galloped towards Ming Zhaoshuang.
Dong Fuyu sneered, “Do you think you can escape just because the Qiongqi is here? I could seal it once, and I can seal it again.”
Sang Biao turned back and roared, “Don’t talk nonsense! When you sealed me before, you were just an assistant, completely useless. Do you really think you’re someone important?”
Dong Fuyu’s expression stiffened.
After all, Sang Biao was right. When it was sealed, the main formation was drawn by the former Palace Master, Zhen Hanliu.
Seeing his displeased expression, Sang Biao smugly trotted towards Ming Zhaoshuang.
He, Sang Biao, would not tolerate waste!
Seeing Sang Biao like this, Ming Zhaoshuang couldn’t help but chuckle, increasingly feeling that this fellow had been trained well by Feng He.
As for those Mahayana Stage cultivators, they were already furious, their long swords and talismans simultaneously striking towards Ming Zhaoshuang and Sang Biao, like exploding fireworks, dazzling to the extreme.
Despite Sang Biao’s body being covered in blood, he had always been impervious to pain and feared no one among these experts.
He even had the mood to feign a whine at Ming Zhaoshuang, “Master, Sang Biao is scared, save me.”
Ming Zhaoshuang’s mouth twitched. Feeling that she could finally recall Sang Biao, she immediately raised her hand and took him back.
With her other hand, spiritual flow surged, and she used that instantaneous movement talisman.
“Everyone, I look forward to meeting you again.”
As she finished speaking, the moon-white figure suddenly vanished, leaving behind only scattered plum blossoms.
Dong Fuyu was stunned.
This was an instantaneous movement talisman, and it was from their Setting Sun Mountain Range.
Although the energy contained within that instantaneous movement talisman was pitifully small, instantaneous movement talismans generally started at Earth Rank, especially those from their Setting Sun Mountain Range, which were High-Grade Heaven Grade.
But how could such low spiritual power be used to draw a High-Grade Heaven Grade talisman?
This was impossible.
Unless…
Dong Fuyu seemed to recall something, his fingers clenching, turning deathly pale.
He reacted extremely quickly and immediately said, “Hurry and capture her! With her spiritual power, she cannot possibly escape Setting Sun Mountain Range!”
Unless the person who drew the talisman was a Spiritually Connected Sacred Body, they could overcome the cultivation barrier and draw this talisman.
Dong Fuyu had always believed Ming Zhaoshuang was a sword cultivator, thinking it was already good enough for her to have a summoning talisman. He had never imagined she would be a dual cultivator of talismans and swords, especially after what she had endured.
This was almost impossible.
Therefore, this instantaneous movement talisman caught him off guard.
But he wasn’t stupid. Ming Zhaoshuang’s spiritual power was limited; being able to teleport a thousand meters was already incredible. For their divine senses to cover a distance within a thousand meters was not difficult at all!
