People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

When his sight fell on the rooms where Zi Yan and others lived, he frowned slightly. He saw that those rooms all looked like they had been carefully cleaned. The house was silent, with tables and chairs neatly arranged. There was no sense of life that usually appeared in the house. It was obvious that no one had lived there for some time.

"By the way, A Diao, why don't I see Zi Yan and the others?"

Xiao Ling felt a little puzzled, and then he raised his eyes, looked at Xiao Diao, and asked curiously:

"I just tried to sense them, and found that even in Shengdan City, I couldn't sense their presence. Do you know when they went out?"

"I don't know the specific situation, but I heard Xiong Zhan mention it before, saying that they seemed to have gone to the Beast Territory, and they should be back soon." Xiao Diao shook his head slightly, responding to Xiao Ling's question.

Then, he tilted his head slightly, looked at Xiao Ling and asked, "Are you planning to go look for them now, or wait for them to come back in Shengdan City?"

"Forget it, I'll just wait for them in Shengdan City. Zi Yan should be able to sense that I've come out of seclusion. With her personality, she won't hang around outside for too long and should be back soon."

Xiao Ling raised his head slightly and looked at the azure sky. He seemed to be able to see the traces of people in the distance through the endless sky. He shook his head gently, with a faint smile on his lips, and said softly,

"It just so happens that I am in Shengdan City this time, and I still have some matters to take care of. Now I have some free time to deal with these matters..."

……

In a quiet courtyard in the Dan Tower, the breeze blew gently, bringing with it the fragrance of flowers and plants. Xiao Ling, Cao Ying, and Dan Chen sat together, and the atmosphere around them was peaceful and comfortable.

At this time, Xiao Ling slowly took out a talisman from his arms. The talisman floated lightly on his palm, surrounded by circles of extremely mysterious runes, which slowly flowed, exuding a mysterious and ancient aura.

Dan Chen and Cao Ying, who were standing opposite Xiao Ling, were instantly attracted by the talisman, with curiosity flashing in their eyes.

Cao Ying couldn't suppress her inner curiosity. She leaned forward slightly, tilted her head, and stared at the floating talisman intently.

Her brows furrowed slightly, as if she was trying to recall something. Then, as if she remembered something, she couldn't help but speak, with a hint of inquiry and doubt in her voice:

"Xiao Ling, what on earth is this thing? Judging from its appearance alone, the shape of this thing is quite similar to the inheritance crystal described in ancient books. Could it be that this is related to those inherited items?"

Dan Chen also turned her gaze towards Xiao Ling, her beautiful eyes showing a strong curiosity. This was indeed the first time she had seen such a novel thing in her life.

"Haha, the origin of this thing is quite extraordinary." Xiao Ling chuckled and nodded slightly to Dan Chen and Cao Ying, with a hint of elusive mystery in his eyes, but he did not elaborate.

"However, Cao Ying, your guess is somewhat reasonable. It does have some similarities with the inheritance crystal, but they are not exactly the same."

When the two women heard Xiao Ling's ambiguous words, they were confused for a moment. They first looked at each other subconsciously, their eyes full of confusion and speechless helplessness.

Then, they all turned their eyes to Xiao Ling with a hint of resentment, as if silently blaming him for deliberately being mysterious, which made people feel itchy.

"Okay, okay, both of you stop looking at me like that." When Xiao Ling saw the two girls' eyes full of resentment and curiosity, he gave up the idea of ​​keeping them in suspense and could only chuckle and wave his hand.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ling raised his hand lightly, and the talisman that was previously floating above his palm and surrounded by mysterious runes slowly floated towards Dan Chen. Dan Chen hurriedly reached out and steadily received it in his palm.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ling calmly took out another talisman from his arms. Although this talisman was slightly different from the previous one, it was basically the same.

He gently turned his wrist and handed the talisman to Cao Ying.

A gleam of doubt and surprise flashed in Cao Ying's eyes, but she did not ask anything. She just stretched out her hands carefully and gently took the mysterious talisman handed to her by Xiao Ling.

After the two of them had properly stored the talisman, Xiao Ling's smile became even brighter. His eyes fell on them softly, and he smiled gently:

"These two things are exactly the gifts I mentioned to you before, specially prepared for you two. After you gradually refine them, you will understand the true meaning of these symbols. Moreover, I can guarantee that you will like this gift very much."

As soon as Xiao Ling finished speaking, his firm and confident demeanor exuded an indescribable appeal. Dan Chen and Cao Ying exchanged glances, and both caught the irrepressible curiosity and eager anticipation in each other's eyes.

Immediately, without any hesitation, they raised their hands gracefully, carefully lifted up the talisman that exuded a mysterious aura, and pressed it against their foreheads.

The runes were in their warm palms, as if sensing the two women's inner expectations. The mysterious runes began to flash faster, like ancient spells that had been awakened, as if inviting them to explore the secrets hidden within.

When the seal touched the foreheads of the two people, a soft white light slowly spread from the inside of the seal. A stream of information seemed to have found an outlet, flowing into the minds of the two people continuously.

Realizing this, the two women did not delay any longer. They quickly closed their eyes, held their breath, concentrated, and immersed themselves in this flow of information, and began to deeply interpret the mysteries contained in the symbol.

Xiao Ling saw that Dan Chen and Cao Ying were completely immersed in the ocean of knowledge revealed by the talisman. Both women had their eyes closed, their faces focused, and their bodies seemed to be surrounded by a circle of tranquility.

Therefore, Xiao Ling stopped making any sound, fearing to break the quiet and focused atmosphere.

He stood up gently from the chair, his clothes fluttering gently with his movements, and then he walked slowly towards the spacious open space in the courtyard with a steady and calm pace.

At the same time, Xiao Ling slowly raised his hand, and in an instant, a mysterious and extraordinary talisman slowly appeared on his palm.

Looking carefully, the textures on the runes are intricate, with countless hair-thin lines intertwined and entangled, just like the mysterious, chaotic and disordered traces of order when the universe was first created and chaos began.

All kinds of mysterious runes are densely covered on the entire surface of the seal, and each line exudes an irresistible mysterious aura, as if they are carrying the most primitive and profound power in the universe.

If the soul power of the person doing this exploration is not strong enough, then just a quick glance at these runes is enough to make the person feel dizzy and black, and in serious cases it may even cause the person to fall into a coma.

"Tsk tsk, it's true that seeing is believing. This destiny talisman is truly mysterious and extraordinary. With such a unique appearance, you can tell at a glance that it is definitely not an ordinary thing."

Xiao Ling held the talisman gently in his palm, his eyes full of amazement and admiration. His eyebrows slightly raised, his face full of disbelief, he couldn't help shaking his head and smacking his lips, sighing sincerely,

"Compared with those natal spirit talismans, this kind of quality and charm is completely different. The two cannot be compared at all. They are not on the same level at all..."

“Haha, this is not an ordinary natal talisman, but a natal talisman that contains a hint of the charm of the eight ancestral talismans. Its high quality and profound mystery are naturally beyond the reach of those ordinary natal talismans…”

At this moment, a stream of light shot out from Xiao Ling's body and quickly gathered in front of him. The familiar figure of the ancestor spirit gradually emerged.

"Let alone comparing it with those natal spirit talismans, even compared with ordinary natal heavenly talismans, this natal heavenly talisman refined by me is undoubtedly superior. The gap between the two is like the difference between heaven and earth, and they are not at the same level at all..."

Although the tone of the Ancestral Spirit remains as calm and peaceful as before, if you listen carefully, you can vaguely feel the pride that is hard to conceal.

"Of course, Yan, I have absolute confidence in your abilities. Once I refine this innate talent, it will definitely greatly increase my strength, and there will be many benefits."

Xiao Ling chuckled in response to this, and responded with a hint of flattery.

As time went by, and the anticipation continued day after day, the spirit of the ancestral stone finally completed this arduous task and perfectly produced this natal talisman that it had drawn by hand.

"This natal talisman has now been drawn. When do you plan to start absorbing and refining it to make it your natal talisman?"

The spirit of the ancestral stone was also somewhat expectant at this moment. Now that all preparations were ready, Xiao Ling could finally take that step and officially embark on the journey of practicing as a talisman master.

"There's no rush for this matter right now." Xiao Ling seemed very calm, with a smile on his face. He shook his head gently and said in a very casual tone, "After a few days, we will return to Xingyun Pavilion, and I will be able to retreat and practice for a while. By then, I have the confidence to directly raise my level of Talisman Master to the limit of my current mental power. A little delay now will not be a big problem."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ling raised his hand and waved it gently. The symbol that was flickering with a faint light, as if being pulled by an invisible hand, silently merged into his body and disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.

Xiao Ling has also received the news that Xiao Yixian has ended her retreat, and she has now returned to Xingyun Pavilion.

Although Xiao Ling originally planned to set off for the Beast Territory after the Alchemy Conference, in view of the change in circumstances, he naturally had to change his plan and return to Xingyun Pavilion first to see his little wife whom he had not seen for a long time.

By that time, Xiao Ling planned to teach the talisman master's training methods to a few people close to him. In this way, everyone could devote more time to practicing this skill together and improve their respective combat methods.

Yao Chen has now reached the realm of a three-star Douluo, and it is not an easy task to further improve his cultivation.

But with Yao Chen's current soul power at the heavenly level, the method of talisman master cultivation taught by Xiao Ling will naturally help him increase his strength in a not too long time.

Moreover, Xiao Ling could also imagine that with Yao Chen's curiosity about new things, he would definitely develop a strong interest in this method of talisman master cultivation, and might even become deeply involved in it.

Seeing that Xiao Ling already had his own plans, the spirit of the ancestor said no more. Even if it was delayed for a day or two, it would not cause any major impact.

After all, if you want to improve your skills as a talisman master, it ultimately depends on the strength of your mental strength, so a little time for practice is not a big deal.

"By the way, Yan, can you make a rough guess?" Xiao Ling suddenly changed the topic and cast his gaze to Cao Ying and Dan Chen who were sitting cross-legged and concentrating on absorbing the inherited talisman knowledge.

His eyes revealed a light of thought and inquiry. He paused for a moment, then turned to the Ancestral Spirit, his eyes full of inquiry, and continued, "Based on the current soul power of those two girls, if they embark on the path of Talisman Master, relying on their existing foundation, what realm can they cultivate to in a short period of time?"

Hearing Xiao Ling's question, the Ancestral Spirit also cast his gaze towards where Cao Ying and Dan Chen were. He looked calm, with a gleam in his deep eyes, and looked at the two quietly. After a while, the Ancestral Spirit pondered for a moment, and then responded calmly:

"Although the cultivation of these two women is not top-notch and has only reached the level of Nirvana, their mental strength is quite outstanding. Relying on the foundation they have accumulated, if they focus on the path of Talisman Master, they are expected to break through the boundary of Heavenly Talisman Master and barely enter the realm of Immortal Talisman Master. Once they are successfully promoted, the power of Immortal Talisman Master alone will be enough to compete with Dou Zun strongmen in this dimension."

"Moreover, I see that these two people have deep feelings for you. If you teach them the skills of a talisman master, it will not cause any trouble. On the contrary, they will be of use. In my opinion, this is undoubtedly a wise choice."

"Yan, what are you talking about?" Xiao Ling looked a little helpless, holding his forehead with one hand and quickly denying it.

"I don't have such a strong purpose. I just think that the two of them are very suitable for the path of practicing as a talisman master. In addition, we have a close relationship, so I intend to teach them the art of talisman master. It's not as complicated as you think."

The Ancestral Spirit did not take Xiao Ling's explanation too seriously. His tone was still as calm as before, making it difficult to detect any emotional ups and downs.

"As a weapon spirit, it is indeed difficult for me to fully comprehend the emotions between you humans. However, since you are determined to vigorously promote the practice of Talisman Masters in this Douqi Continent, I fully support this matter..."

In response to this, Xiao Ling chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I will let the talisman master's cultivation method spread throughout the Douqi Continent, but the development process is up to me. Otherwise, if it helps the enemy, that's not what I want..."

Chapter 488 Talisman Master

Time passed slowly, and about half an hour later, Cao Ying was the first to break free from the deep ocean of knowledge.

She first opened her eyes dazedly and blinked a few times, as if she had just woken up from a distant and deep dream.

Her pupils, which had been somewhat dazed, gradually began to focus, and her consciousness returned to her body like a gurgling stream.

Soon after, Danchen also woke up slowly. There was also a trace of confusion and trance in her eyes. She raised her hand and gently rubbed her temple, as if she was trying to sort out the massive amount of information that had just flooded into her mind.

Just as Cao Ying and Dan Chen slowly woke up and subtle noises spread quietly, Xiao Ling seemed to have telepathic connection and keenly captured the situation here.

Immediately, he turned slightly and headed towards where the two people were.

When Xiao Ling saw that the confusion and trance in Cao Ying and Dan Chen's eyes were gradually being replaced by clarity, he found it very interesting and couldn't help but chuckle.

Then, he gently gathered his scattered thoughts and walked steadily forward in the direction of the two women.

However, although Cao Ying and Dan Chen have both regained consciousness at this moment, the shocking counterattacks they had previously gained from the talisman inheritance have thrown a huge rock into their hearts, stirring up a thousand waves and making their hearts fall into a vortex of intense shock.

At this moment, they were speechless for a moment, and their lips seemed to be sewn together by invisible silk thread and remained shut for a long time.

It was not simple silence, but a complex emotion of awe and confusion that came from the heart when facing the vast unknown field of knowledge.

For a moment, it was difficult to make sense of anything, to find the right words to express the ups and downs in my heart. I could only stand there in such a quiet posture, letting the surging emotions in my heart gradually calm down.

Xiao Ling walked up to the two girls and scanned their faces, taking in their expressions of shock and confusion. After a brief thought, he had a pretty good idea of ​​their current state of mind.

Immediately, Xiao Ling opened his thin lips and chuckled. Then, he raised his hand and flicked the two girls' smooth foreheads with his slender fingers. His eyes were full of mischief and pampering. He deliberately dragged out the tone and whispered teasingly,

"Hmm? What's going on? You two are just standing there like this. Are you so shocked by the gift I gave you that you can't speak?"

After saying this, he crossed his arms over his chest, a faint smile on his lips, and looked at the two girls with interest, as if he was expecting their response.

Xiao Ling's sudden action startled Cao Ying and Dan Chen. They subconsciously raised their hands and gently covered their foreheads, looking like frightened deer, with a bit of coquettishness and ignorance.

Then, as if they had telepathic connection, they turned their gazes to Xiao Ling almost at the same time, and their eyes were filled with resentment and anger.

However, Xiao Ling's seemingly casual interruption just happened to break the originally heavy silence. Cao Ying and Dan Chen's thoughts were also quickly pulled back to reality at that moment. The strong shock in their hearts caused by the previous talisman inheritance was gently soothed in this relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, and their emotions gradually returned to calm.

Cao Ying opened her red lips and let out a long breath, as if to dispel the amazement and shock in her heart. Her face was full of emotion, and she said softly:

"I, Cao Ying, consider myself to be knowledgeable about the cultivation methods of the talisman master, but today I have truly broadened my horizons. This is the first time in my life that I have seen such a wonderful method."

After saying this, her beautiful eyes sparkled with a thoughtful light, as if she recalled the mysterious information she had seen in the talisman inheritance before, and she couldn't help but sigh again:

"In order to learn more knowledge, I have read many ancient books in the Dan Tower. I thought I had some understanding of various cultivation methods in this world. I never expected that the skills of the Talisman Master were completely beyond my understanding. They are so unique and exquisite that I have never heard of them or seen them before."

"Indeed, this profound and mysterious cultivation method, in my opinion, is not inferior to the alchemy technique we have learned."

Dan Chen nodded slightly, a look of approval appeared on his delicate face, and he echoed softly:

"Alchemists and talisman masters each have their own strengths. Alchemists are good at refining various kinds of elixirs, each with its own efficacy, and can provide great assistance in various aspects. Talisman masters fight with their mental power. If their mental power is strong, it is very possible to fight against opponents of higher levels. If someone not only has a very strong spiritual power, but can also integrate the skills of both, then that person's achievements are absolutely unimaginable..."
