Chapter 819: No, Let Me Handle It Myself

Clearly, due to the turbulence from the sword flight, Shandu’s frail body could no longer endure.

The Shans watched their eldest senior brother’s pale face, growing increasingly anxious. "What should we do? Why hasn’t Master Nanli returned yet?"

Cinian took out the Five Elements Nascent Soul Pill.

Nanli had given it to him before she left.

However...

To help someone survive the Nascent Soul Wrath of Thunder, he had no experience at all.

But if they delayed any longer, Shandu’s inner core would really shatter, with no chance of repair.

"Forget it, I’ll just have to do it," he thought, steeling himself.

As soon as he fed the Five Elements Nascent Soul Pill to Shandu, Nanli returned using her Teleportation Talisman.

"Master Nanli!"

"Second Master!"

Each voice was filled with excitement and urgency.

Cinian trembled as he stood up. "Master Nanli..."

Nanli didn’t have time to respond to them because she could already sense that Shandu’s aura had changed. It was clear that the Five Elements Nascent Soul Pill had taken effect.

"I’m going to help him repair his inner core. You all wait outside," she said.

The others immediately retreated.

However, Nanli kept Ye Yanqin behind.

"Second Master, what is this...?" Ye Yanqin asked, puzzled.

"I’m going to use a talisman formation to help him repair it. Since you study talisman arts, stay and observe. You should learn a thing or two," Nanli said without looking back, as she took out her Heaven Star Brush and began drawing the formation in the air.

Ye Yanqin, stunned at first, then became excited, her heart racing and her body slightly trembling.

She knew that in every discipline, there was a saying: ’Teach the apprentice, starve the master.’

She never expected Nanli to allow her to stay and observe such a profound talisman formation!

"Second Master, such an exquisite talisman formation... You’ve let me stay to watch... You are truly too kind! I swear to the heavens, if I ever show disrespect or betrayal toward you, may lightning strike me down!" Ye Yanqin said, choking up with emotion.

Nanli quickly finished drawing the talisman formation. She turned and said with a wry smile, "It’s not such a profound formation."

"What? Then why did you leave me behind but not Zen Master Cinian and the others?"

"Because they are Buddha Cultivators, and they already have their own system. Watching too much of it will only confuse them. They’d be better off not learning this," Nanli explained.

Ye Yanqin misunderstood and pursed her lips, "I thought this talisman formation couldn’t be passed on."

Nanli raised an eyebrow, puzzled, and said, "Doesn’t Frosty Valley have books on this? It’s because Shandu took the Five Elements Nascent Soul Pill, which slightly altered the talisman formation. That’s why I had you stay behind to observe. You should know that in talisman arts, it’s crucial not to be stuck in rigid patterns. We must adjust the talisman and formations based on the situation."

Even though Ye Yanqin wasn’t particularly skilled, she should still have access to similar books in Frosty Valley, right?

Ye Yanqin lowered her head, "There are such books, but Valley Lord keeps them personally, fearing that other sects might send spies to steal the knowledge. As ordinary disciples, we never get a chance to read them."

Nanli’s lips curled into a cold smile.

No wonder Valley Lord Yang had joined forces with Qingwu to harm her.

"It seems this is why the female cultivators of Frosty Valley are so weak, and why their talisman arts are so poor," Nanli remarked.

Ye Yanqin nodded silently, feeling a weight in her heart.

She believed that if it weren’t for Valley Lord Yang’s excessive suspicion, her senior sisters wouldn’t have lost their lives, one after another, in battle. Even she herself could have advanced further in talisman arts, and maybe she would have been able to help.

But now, with Valley Lord Yang dead and Frosty Valley destroyed, all their teachings were lost...

"Fortunately, thanks to the grace of Master, I now have this opportunity," she thought.

With determination, she said, "I hope Master will continue to guide me. I’ll definitely study hard and not waste your efforts!"

"I don’t have much to teach you. Just watch how I draw the talismans and set up the formations. How much you learn depends on your own talent and comprehension," Nanli replied sincerely.

For cultivators, how far they could go depended on their heart, bones, and talent.

Once their hearts were shaken, their foundation would crumble, and their cultivation would never improve.

Ye Yanqin, smart as ever, understood at once, "I understand, Master. I will learn as much as I can, but I won’t push myself too hard."

Nanli nodded in satisfaction.

This way, Ye Yanqin wouldn’t go astray or develop a heart demon.

The talisman formation glowed brilliantly, using the Five Elements Nascent Soul Pill to help repair Shandu’s inner core.

Shandu’s condition was improving—he opened his eyes.

The Five Elements Nascent Soul Pill contained vast spiritual power, enough to allow a Golden Core cultivator in the later stage to break through. He could feel his body brimming with strength.

"Master Nanli, your kindness is immeasurable! This humble monk... this humble monk is truly at a loss for how to repay you," Shandu said, deeply moved and grateful.

Nanli didn’t say much. "Alright, now begin your breakthrough!"

As he started his breakthrough, Nanli adjusted the talisman formation to fully restore his inner core.

Shandu knew this was a crucial moment. He immediately sat down cross-legged, focused and still, not daring to let his mind wander.

After all, this was Master Nanli’s hard-earned Five Elements Nascent Soul Pill. He could not let her efforts go to waste!

He began circulating his spiritual power.

Nanli continued to adjust the talisman formation on the side, completely focused.

And more focused than her was Ye Yanqin.

The talisman formation was extremely complex, yet Nanli seemed to draw it effortlessly, as if the patterns were engraved in her mind. With a simple flick of her brush, the formation appeared easily in the air.

Only Ye Yanqin, a Talisman Cultivator, truly understood how difficult this was!

To reach this level required years of practice!

If she knew Nanli had memorized it after only seeing it a few times without repeated practice, she would surely be deeply discouraged.

Meanwhile, Shandu’s righteous deeds began to manifest.

He breezed through the breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage.

The air inside the room trembled!

A surge of energy broke through the roof, shooting into the sky.

It was a report to the heavens: another Nascent Soul cultivator had emerged in the world, ready to face the Wrath of Thunder.

At the same time, Shandu’s inner core was fully repaired.

He could feel the powerful energy surging within him!

Excited, he opened his eyes, looked at his hands, and felt the strength of his spiritual power, shouting in exhilaration, "I’ve broken through! I’ve finally broken through!" fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

But Nanli replied, "Don’t celebrate yet. You haven’t faced the Wrath of Thunder. Part of the power from the Five Elements Nascent Soul Pill was used to repair your inner core. With your current spiritual power and physique, you still can’t withstand the Nascent Soul Wrath of Thunder."

"What...?"

"Let’s move to a different place. I’ll help you face the Wrath of Thunder."

"No!"

Shandu jumped to his feet, glancing at Nanli’s abdomen. "Let me handle it myself!"

He could not let her be in danger.

This was his Wrath of Thunder. If he harmed her, no amount of death would make up for it!

Outside, the sky had already darkened.

Nanli knew the thunderclouds were slowly gathering. She said, "If you can’t endure it and turn into ashes, won’t I lose out even more?"
