In the world of martial arts, there is a vast fantasy world.

Chapter 291 Seven Realms Jade Talisman!

This is truly astonishing news.

Even if it's a sacred place, it's still a bit too exaggerated in Shen Xing's opinion that not even a sixth-grade alchemist is qualified to enter.

Moreover, the entire region is populated by weapon refiners and alchemists.

It should be understood that both alchemy formulas and inscriptions are forms of martial arts conception. Without learning devices, there are not many people qualified to comprehend them on their own, and even fewer who can become qualified alchemists or weapon refiners.

According to the proportions Shen Xing knew, there was about one qualified alchemist out of ten thousand people, and one qualified weapon refiner out of fifty thousand people.

With such a ratio, those who can reach the sixth rank are truly the chosen ones.

At least, in the surrounding hundred regions, there are no more than two hands' worth of sixth-grade alchemists, and even fewer sixth-grade weapon refiners. There are none openly known, only some places where there are vague rumors.

etc--

Shen Xing suddenly realized that all the talented alchemists had probably been absorbed into that place.

It's really possible.

"If someone is a sixth-grade weapon refiner, are they qualified to enter this holy land?" Shen Xing asked again.

"According to the Ancestor, the first thing that matters when recruiting people is potential," Shang Lian replied. "Although the Ancestor is a sixth-grade alchemist, his potential has been exhausted. If he doesn't have the opportunity in this life, he can only refine low-grade sixth-grade pills at most. But if he is a weapon refiner, even if he can only refine low-grade sixth-grade divine weapons, he is still qualified to enter. His status is much higher than that of an alchemist."

Shen Xing understood.

Sure enough.

This must be why there are so few weapon refiners; he had thought it was because weapon refiners required higher talent.

In other words, there is an invisible hand that is constantly gathering people with talent in alchemy and weapon crafting throughout the Hundred Realms.

"How do I get to that place?" Shen Xing asked again.

Shang Lian knew he would ask, and at this moment, a bitter smile appeared on her beautiful face.

"Young Master Shen," she shook her head and said, "that place has a large array covering the entire area, with mist swirling around it that can interfere with perception. Without a guide, even the sun and moon would have difficulty entering."

"Just give me the address." Shen Xingwei frowned slightly. "Whether I can get in or not is my business."

"Yes." Shang Lian didn't say anything more, as if she had been prepared, and directly gave the address.

It's called an address, but it's really just a straight line.

To Shen Xing's slight surprise, the direction was actually east.

It should be understood that the flow of vital energy in this "Eastern Ruins" is from east to west; the further west you go, the more abundant it becomes, and the further east you go, the more barren it becomes.

However, considering that there is a large array there that can cover the entire region, it is not surprising.

The Gathering Yuan Array is the most basic kind of thing.

It's just about gathering vital energy.

So, how do I get there?

After Shang Lian left, Shen Xing's face lost its composure. It was easy to guess that the place was not simple, and the holy land behind it was probably quite powerful. It was hard to say whether there was an eighth realm, but it was likely that there was more than one seventh realm.

"Send the detection devices over there first." With a thought, Shen Xing sent over a dozen detection devices away invisibly.

This detection device is different from the ones he bought before. Each one is a masterpiece of human technology from the Federation of Humanity, and even uses extraordinary technology to shield all traces of himself at the source. It is also unique in its ability to shield divine sense.

The price of one of them is no less than that of a faster-than-light missile.

It was originally designed for exploring other worlds.

It is difficult to discover at least the seventh realm.

If they are discovered, it would actually be a good thing, as it would indicate that the other party possesses the ability to reach the eighth realm.

After deploying these detection devices, Shen Xing also set up a high-powered intertemporal communication base to ensure that he could quickly obtain first-hand information.

Next, we just wait.

It is worth mentioning that after more than a year of seclusion and arduous cultivation, Shen Xing's cultivation level has finally reached the late stage of the Spirit Realm.

His consumption of pills had reached a terrifying level. For example, one Nine-Patterned Golden Dragon Pill was only enough for him to cultivate for one day. If word got out, it would shock a lot of people.

He estimated that even without armor, he could hold his own against a martial artist who had just entered the Mountain and Sea realm. If he wore inscribed armor, he could fight a great battle even if he was in the late Mountain and Sea realm.

Unfortunately, as he progressed into the later stages, he could clearly sense the existence of a certain bottleneck.

Many of the pills ingested are only superficially refined, and in reality, they are not completely integrated with one's cultivation level. It's like an oil layer floating on the surface of water; it may seem to be piled up high, but in reality, it may separate at any time, and it even hinders the rise of the water level.

He knew perfectly well why—the lack of fighting and bloodshed.

"This is going to be difficult," Shen Xingwei frowned.

He knew that he had been targeted by many people ever since he killed a sun and moon with a faster-than-light missile more than a year ago.

There might even be a sacred site behind it, and it's highly likely to be the sacred site behind the Ancient Sword Sect.

That kind of invisible sword cannot be created by anyone but a master swordsman.

Even he wouldn't dare say he could withstand a sneak attack.

If there's not even time to teleport, then there's a real threat to one's life.

We need to think of a solution.

After pondering for a moment, Shen Xing returned to the Human Federation's spaceship.

"Mi Fei." He sent a message directly to Mi Fei, "Please ask Sister Wenren if there's any way to stop a Seventh Realm sneak attack, even if it's just for a moment."

Then he sent a similar message to Liu Yanfeng.

That's right, he couldn't think of any other way himself, so he could only rely on these strong people.

After all, despite his current apparent strength and status, there are still many things he doesn't understand about the true powerhouses of the Human Federation.

And just by asking, you might actually find a solution.

In a very short time, he received a message from Mi Fei.

"Are you being targeted by the Seven Realms?" Mi Fei's voice was filled with concern. "Is it serious? Who is it? Master will definitely be willing to take action."

"I've reached the late stage of the Spirit Realm," Shen Xing said slowly.

"..." After a moment of silence, Mi Fei sent a series of question marks, "People are just trying to be kind and concerned about you, why are you so quick to criticize them?"

"What are you talking about?" Shen Xing said helplessly. "What I mean is that I'm almost at a bottleneck. You know, you can't raise a martial arts expert in a greenhouse. If I want to maintain my cultivation speed, I have to fight and kill. Otherwise, no matter how many resources I have, it won't help. But in my current situation, there are quite a few people eyeing me."

That's right, the same reason applies to the Human Federation.

Although Shen Xing's status as the major shareholder and de facto controller of Mingwen Company has not been publicly acknowledged, it is an open secret to a certain extent.

As far as he knows, there are quite a few anti-federal organizations now targeting him.

Lacking in ability, yet holding a high position of power.

There is no better target than him.

If he hides in the spaceship, in the vast universe, no one can catch him. But if he goes to fight in some other world, that's a different story.

The level of risk has been raised to an extreme.

The probability of being personally targeted by the Seven Realms is also the same.

In this situation, it's perfectly normal for him to have this need.

Mi Fei understood and nodded, "I understand, I'll go ask Master."

It seemed that Wenren Caifeng no longer needed to go into seclusion; not long after the call ended, her call came in.

"Do you need to deal with the defensive items of the seventh realm?" Her voice was extremely gentle, which warmed people's hearts. However, Shen Xing knew that this was actually due to the influence of the cultivation technique.

At this moment, he activated the "Dragon Holding the Sun" technique, guarded his mind, and said in a deep voice, "That's right, I also inquired with the Dragon Gate, but I haven't received a reply yet. I can only try asking Sister Wenren."

"There are two options," Wenren Caifeng said. "The first option is for me to leave a trace of power within your body, which will automatically activate when you encounter a threat at the Saint level. The second option is the jade talisman, but the production of a seventh-realm jade talisman is extremely difficult. I only have two, and they are very, very expensive."

"Can jade talismans also be activated passively?" Shen Xing asked curiously.

"It won't work below the seventh realm, but it's possible within the seventh realm." Wenren Caifeng seemed to have guessed his thoughts and smiled. "Being vigilant is a good thing. Let's use the jade talisman then. However, I can only give you one; the other one must be reserved for Mi Fei."

"Okay, thank you, Sister Wenren." Shen Xing's eyes brightened slightly.

Unexpectedly, the matter was resolved so simply.

Sure enough, having a true Seventh Realm expert standing behind you gives you confidence.

"No need to thank me, just be nicer to our Mi Fei in the future." Wenren Caifeng's voice carried a hint of teasing. "As soon as she heard about your matter, she rushed to my side within minutes."

Shen Xing wasn't embarrassed; he simply agreed solemnly.

Indeed, half of the connection between Wenren Caifeng and him was facilitated by Mi Fei.

In any case, this has solved a major problem.

Two days after the communication ended, Liu Yanfeng also received news about Ji Long.

Ji Long didn't even give him two options, and simply said he would have someone send a jade talisman over.

Defensive type, passively activated, the threshold for activation is encountering power at the seventh realm level.

"This kind of jade talisman is extremely precious. It may take a hundred years to make even one." Liu Yanfeng's tone was filled with envy, but he still solemnly warned, "Because the materials that can contain the power of the seventh realm are extremely rare, and the production difficulty is very high, once it is used up, Director Ji Long will not be able to give you a second one in a short period of time. So, you still have to be careful. Once you have used it up, you must hide for a period of time immediately."

"I know," Shen Xing replied.

Liu Yanfeng didn't say anything more.

He knew that Shen Xing would have to face some dangers on his own; otherwise, no matter how high his potential was, it would still just be potential.
