Chapter 1002: True Spirit Blood Talisman

Among the many forces in Taicang State, Jiang Fan dealt most with Sanqing Mountain.

In the past, there was Xuanyang, and later, Evil Pupil Master.

Both openly and secretly, there were confrontations.

The impression they left on Jiang Fan was indescribable.

At present, with Hua Wuying undergoing a Heavenly Tribulation, it was hard to say whether the people from Sanqing Mountain would have ulterior motives.

However.

Upon seeing their situation, Jiang Fan felt his worries might be somewhat unnecessary.

Three robed figures from Sanqing Mountain were fleeing in panic on a cloud.

Among the three, there was an elder and a youth.

The elder’s robe was old and washed-out, his figure hunched. Who else could he be but the cruel Xuanyang?

The young Taoist by his side had a grave expression and constantly looked back, revealing the scripture-reciting Qingde.

However, it should be noted that he is now referred to as Master.

Because he had already reached the Nascent Soul Realm, and it was he who was maneuvering the cloud to escape.

In the cloud, there was also a middle-aged man of wealthier appearance, seriously injured and covered in blood.

At this moment, his face was pale, with a long crack across his chest almost splitting his torso, the internal organs visible.

Thanks to his Four Apertures Nascent Soul cultivation, he could still manage to hold on.

And not far behind them, an emaciated elder was leisurely chasing them.

His eyes were filled with a mocking expression.

Xuanyang’s face was heavy with concern as he urgently said, "Elder Xiang, don’t hesitate, quickly give him the talisman that contains a trace of True Spirit Blood!"

"Otherwise, we’re all going to die."

Elder Xiang’s face was pale, devoid of any blood.

He shook his head, gravely saying, "It’s useless."

"This person disguised himself as our Sanqing Mountain’s Black Moon Venerable, and his schemes surely don’t stop at just a talisman."

"He wishes to continue hiding within Sanqing Mountain and won’t allow us to return alive to expose him."

"Giving him the talisman is of no use."

Hearing this, Xuanyang was furious.

"When did Black Moon Venerable get his possession taken?"

"How did we completely fail to notice his abnormality!"

He was deeply frustrated.

They were tasked with escorting a precious talisman to Washing Moon Lake to meet True Word Venerable.

Who knew, just as they were about to arrive.

Black Moon Venerable suddenly struck; Elder Xiang couldn’t react in time and was severely injured.

And his target was that talisman.

Feeling the rapidly approaching aura of Black Moon Venerable, Xuanyang’s old face was filled with panic.

Just as despair hit.

Suddenly, a Thunderbolt flashed across the deep sky.

Fixed his eyes to see.

A mass of dark clouds was rapidly spreading across the horizon.

Xuanyang’s old eyes gleamed, saying, "Someone is transcending!"

"Why don’t we lure Black Moon Venerable there?"

"If the other has a protector, let’s ask for their assistance as well."

Elder Xiang frowned and said, "To transcend in such a desolate wilderness, it must be a sudden incident, a temporary tribulation."

"There’s probably no protector nearby."

Qingde also said, "Master, transcending is not easy, going over won’t save us, and it would only drag the other down as well."

"Let’s just forget it."

Transcending is a near-death experience by nature.

Bringing Black Moon Venerable over might scatter the Heavenly Tribulation.

Xuanyang snorted, "We could use the Heavenly Tribulation to fend off Black Moon Venerable."

"As for the other’s failed transcendence, they can only blame their bad luck."

Finishing his words.

Ignoring the opposition, he drove the cloud rapidly towards the place.

Jiang Fan watched this from afar, his gaze turning cold.

This Xuanyang, his actions are as selfish and vicious as always.

Thinking back then.

At the gates of the Tiger Demon Emperor Mansion, Xuanyang found them an eyesore and wanted to kill them!

And now, he’s bringing danger upon someone undergoing a Heavenly Tribulation!

He stood mid-air, coldly observing them approach on their cloud.

Before Xuanyang arrived, his laughter reached first: "This benevolent brother, we are elders of Sanqing Mountain."

"Now faced with an evildoer, we ask that you lend a hand in assistance."

"We will richly reward you afterward."

Seeing a Nascent Soul presence, Xuanyang revealed a look of sly joy.

As long as this person can intervene and hold off Black Moon Venerable for a moment, they can seize the chance to escape.

As for the outcome of this person and the one undergoing the tribulation.

That was none of his concern.

Jiang Fan smirked slightly, "Evildoer?"

"You must be talking about yourself?"

He dispelled the surrounding thunder, letting them see clearly!

Hmm?

The voice sounded somewhat familiar, and the tone seemed less than friendly.

Xuanyang was taken aback, riding the cloud closer, fixing his gaze, his old eyes widened.

Like seeing a ghost, he exclaimed in shock, "You’re that kid from the Continent?"

"You actually succeeded in transcending!"

Qingde also raised his eyebrows with a hint of glee, cupped his hands, and said, "Brother Jiang, you also successfully transcended?"

"Congratulations, congratulations!"

Jiang Fan cupped his hands in return, smiling, "Congratulations to you as well, Brother Qingde."

Then he looked towards the person chasing them in the distance.

"What’s going on with you guys?"

Qingde’s face showed anxiousness, saying, "There’s a traitor in our Sanqing Mountain."

"That Black Moon Venerable wounded Elder Xiang, trying to seize the True Spirit Blood Talisman intended for True Word Venerable..."

Before he finished speaking.

"No need to explain further!"

Elder Xiang quickly interrupted, casting a wary glance at Jiang Fan, and with a gentle smile said:

"Friend, could you help hold him off for a while?"

Jiang Fan was taken aback.

A True Spirit Blood Talisman?

Could it possibly contain True Spirit Blood?

He felt a surge of excitement inside.

But hearing Elder Xiang’s words, he found it laughable.

They drew Black Moon Venerable here without a reason and wanted him to hold him off?

It wasn’t hard to guess; they intended to escape and leave the trouble with Jiang Fan.

Great calculations!

But he didn’t refuse immediately, instead asking, "What’s the opponent’s cultivation?"

This...

Xuanyang and Elder Xiang were simultaneously silent.

Truthfully speaking, would a freshly broken Nascent Soul have the courage to go against a Four Apertures Nascent Soul expert?

Xuanyang’s eyes shifted, saying, "Not high, just a One-Orifice Nascent Soul."

"With your strength, together with us, we can surely kill him on the spot."

Hmm, a One-Orifice Nascent Soul can chase you three to flee for your lives?

Unperturbed, he took out the Ancient Heart Mirror and reflected it on Qingde.

Immediately, he found an answer from the other’s heart.

It was actually a Four Apertures Nascent Soul?

If the opponent were alone, it wouldn’t be too problematic.

He pretended to consider, saying, "Do you expect me to act without reward?"

Xuanyang’s eyes brightened, so easily deceived?

"Of course not, say what you want."

Jiang Fan unhesitatingly said, "How about this."

"Isn’t Black Moon Venerable chasing after the True Spirit Blood Talisman you have?"

"I’ll take a little loss, you give me the True Spirit Blood Talisman."

"Let him chase me instead."

Xuanyang’s face changed dramatically, shouting, "You want the True Spirit Blood Talisman too?"

Elder Xiang’s eyes also turned sharp, firmly saying, "Impossible!"

Jiang Fan didn’t argue further.

He drew the Purple Sword, coldly saying:

"Then I’ll just have to take the initiative."

"Might as well rid Xuanyang for myself, and for the Yizhu Demon Emperor as revenge."
