I Can See Through All Things Information

Chapter 788: Chapter 521: The Treasure Tower Master’s Decision and Audience (Part 2)

Don’t be fooled by the Tower Master being only at the Golden Core Sixth Turn cultivation; her background is quite mysterious.

It is said that she is the concubine of some big figure in the Heavenly Origin Great World.

So even if her cultivation is not the strongest in the Treasure Tower, no one dares to defy her orders.

After pondering for a while, the Treasure Tower Master suddenly spoke: "These are still just speculations. It’s not yet clear if the creator of this talisman is truly a Talisman Master.

And even if it was made by a master, it’s hard to say whether that Talisman Master is currently in the Little Cang Realm.

It’s more likely that this talisman was brought in from outside.

Or perhaps someone obtained it from some ancient ruin cave mansion.

Did that Golden Core True Man not know the value of this talisman and sold it for only one hundred and twenty low-grade Spirit Stones?"

"Obtained from an ancient ruin cave mansion? That’s unlikely.

When I researched this talisman earlier, I found it lacks the ancient and rustic aura that old talisman treasures possess.

The lightning rune within this talisman is quite lively, indicating it was recently crafted.

And it was crafted less than a month ago."

Master Wang provided another piece of information.

"Crafted less than a month ago?"

Indeed, upon hearing this, the Treasure Tower Master’s body trembled.

If this is true, it suggests that the entity who crafted this talisman, even if not in the Little Cang Realm, is likely in a nearby Small World.

Having thought this through, the Treasure Tower Master finally made up her mind.

"A new Talisman Master is indeed an opportunity for our Treasure Tower and should not be missed.

Master Wang, in your opinion, how can we find this mysterious Talisman Master?"

"The Golden Core True Man who came to sell the talisman should be the key. If we can find out the origin of this talisman from him, things should be much easier."

Master Wang suggested.

"Very well, in that case, you, Master Wang, are responsible for this matter. Remember to treat people with respect and not to tarnish the reputation of our Treasure Tower.

If you can find out where the Talisman Master is, I will personally visit them."

The Treasure Tower Master finally decided.

"I will comply with the Tower Master’s instructions."

Master Wang delightedly and respectfully bowed.

The others looked on with envy.

Master Qiu felt a surge of jealousy.

They all knew that if this matter succeeded, Master Wang would surely be credited greatly by the Tower Master.

At that time, the rewards would likely be substantial.

How did that old man get so lucky with this matter!

Master Qiu thought begrudgingly.

Originally, he was in a competitive relationship with the old man, and now it seems he would fall behind.

However, despite his jealousy, Master Qiu did not let it show, nor did he dare to secretly obstruct.

He knew the Tower Master’s temper. Although the Tower Master usually treated them with respect and was gentle.

She even didn’t interfere with their competition, instead watching with approval.

But that was on the condition that they did not break the rules.

If anyone dared to violate her rules, she would be ruthless.

There was once someone who breached the rules and did something harmful to the reputation of the Treasure Tower.

It’s said that person is still suppressed in the Treasure Tower’s dungeon, suffering day and night.

So even if Master Qiu had some clandestine thoughts, he didn’t dare to show them now.

Moreover, he was also very curious about the existence that could craft a Thunder Shock Talisman.

What kind of person could create such an exquisitely crafted talisman?

...

In the morning, Lu Qing, who was meditating on a straw mat to cultivate, opened his eyes.

There was a clear brightness in his eyes.

Beside him, Little Li and Five Elements were also lying there, cultivating.

"No wonder this upper room costs ten low-grade Spirit Stones a day. If I could cultivate here for one or two months, I might directly step into the Fourth Transition realm."

Feeling the room’s spiritual energy, still rich and showing no signs of diminishing after a night’s cultivation, Lu Qing sighed.

He had been stuck at the Golden Core Third Transition Perfect Realm for a long time.

The spiritual energy quality of his home world couldn’t help him break through the bottleneck, leaving his cultivation stagnant for over ten years.

But in this inn’s upper room, after just one night of cultivation.

He faintly felt the bottleneck that had trapped him for over a decade showing signs of loosening.

If he could continue staying in this upper room, it might not take long to break through and formally step into the Fourth Transition realm.

This demonstrated the gap between his small, still-reviving home world and the Little Cang Realm.

Moreover, Lu Qing had already learned.

Worlds like the Little Cang Realm, supported by the Heavenly Origin Great World, would not suffer the calamity of spiritual energy depletion that his home world faced every few millennia.

Unless there’s an issue with the Heavenly Origin Great World, it will always remain in peak condition.

"Cultivating in this upper room may lead to a breakthrough, but the cost-effectiveness is too low, merely an alternative option."

Lu Qing pondered and eventually shook his head.

Staying in this upper room costs ten low-grade Spirit Stones a day, which is quite expensive.

If he stayed for one to two months, the Spirit Stones he had wouldn’t be enough.

"I heard there are real cultivation caves available for rent in Canglan City, but I wonder how exorbitant those prices are."

However, Lu Qing was just pondering because he couldn’t even afford an ordinary inn’s upper room, let alone a cultivation cave.

"Still too poor. There’s no news from the Treasure Tower. Could it be that the Thunder Shock Talisman did not catch their attention?

That makes no sense. Merchants pursue profit, and the Treasure Tower should recognize the value of the Thunder Shock Talisman."

Lu Qing mused silently.

After selling the Thunder Shock Talisman yesterday and returning to the inn, he had been waiting for the Treasure Tower’s move.

Unexpectedly, he waited almost an entire day without any response from the Treasure Tower.

This made him question whether his plan was flawed.

"It seems I was overconfident; after all, this is a Small World close to the Heavenly Origin Great World.

And this Little Cang Realm shares countless ties with the Heavenly Origin Great World.

With many heritages passed down from the Heavenly Origin Great World.

Its talisman arts must be quite profound, so it’s not surprising if they aren’t impressed by my Thunder Shock Talisman."

Realizing this, Lu Qing felt somewhat discouraged.

The Thunder Shock Talisman he sold to the Treasure Tower was meant to test the waters and see if he could collaborate with them.

After all, the cost of crafting the Thunder Shock Talisman is low, but mass production for sale would inevitably encroach on some interests.

Being new and alone here, Lu Qing didn’t want to stand out too much.

He came to the Little Cang Realm with the ultimate goal of entering the Heavenly Origin Great World.

Offending certain forces might pose a threat to his objective.

The best strategy would be to associate with a power to mitigate the risks.

That’s why he thought of testing with the Thunder Shock Talisman.

To see if he could attract the attention of the Treasure Tower and cooperate with them.

Now it seemed he was naive.

The advantage he thought he had was probably insignificant in the eyes of the Treasure Tower.

Perhaps they were simply uninterested in such paltry profits.

"It looks like I’ll have to try my luck with some other shops."

Lu Qing sighed.

In fact, there were two other trade establishments in Canglan City with power comparable to the Treasure Tower.𝓯𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

However, those two had worse reputations than the Treasure Tower and were not Lu Qing’s first choice.

But since the Treasure Tower did not respond, he had to consider other options.

If these shops also had no interest in cooperation, he would have to go solo.

Of course, if several shops were uninterested in the Thunder Shock Talisman.

That would indicate low risk in solo operations, which would also be a positive sign.

After these thoughts, Lu Qing took out two pieces of Spirit Jade to prepare to craft two more Thunder Shock Talismans.

It wasn’t long before Lu Qing crafted and inscribed two new Thunder Shock Talismans, intending to go out with Little Li and the others.

A ripple of array formations came from outside the door.

Someone was knocking.

The upper room of the inn was protected by a formation, preventing disturbances from outsiders.

After all, those who could afford to stay here were likely people with considerable cultivation.

If there were no array isolation, casual Divine Soul Sensing could reveal the activities in nearby rooms.

With the formation activated, the innkeeper could only alert guests by the formation ripples outside the door.

Lu Qing dismissed the defensive array and opened the door.

He saw the inn’s attendant standing outside with a fawning expression.

"Honored guest, there are several seniors outside who wish to meet you."
