I Come to Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 118 - 30: Talisman of Universal Balance (5/5)

There was no playing detective games of hide-and-seek.

Li Boyang, along with a swarm of sleep bugs, directly swept through the entire Mountain Village and quickly found a hidden cellar entrance.

Judging by the scale and the soil quality of this cellar, it was clearly excavated not long ago.

Moreover, this cellar wasn't meant for storage; it seemed more like a temporary altar. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Why do these patterns look so familiar?"

Looking around, Li Boyang noticed that this temporary altar was engraved with various mysterious symbols.

They weren't the Taotie patterns from Xiao Yue, nor were they the tripod inscription from the Prison Soul Tripod...

In contrast, the mysterious symbols near this temporary altar were closer to the altar Li Boyang had built for Cloud Formation and Rainfall.

The only difference was that Li Boyang, when conducting Cloud Formation and Rainfall, habitually borrowed the power of ghost gods, so he would place four statues of gods in the five directions.

This not only greatly enhanced the effect of Cloud Formation and Rainfall.

Even if an unexpected situation arose, the first to suffer backlash would be those four ghost gods.

But the temporary altar here only enshrined one unclear totem.

The mysterious symbols near the altar seemed extremely crude in Li Boyang's eyes.

"Is this... a simplified version of the Huai River Witch's Proverb Talisman?"

After thinking briefly, Li Boyang quickly realized why these mysterious symbols seemed somewhat familiar to him.

Because Li Boyang had been doing the same thing for years.

That is, simplifying and splitting those twelve Proverb Talismans.

Interpreting the true meaning and usage, lowering its usage threshold and difficulty.

"It looks a bit like a Proverb interpretation version of the 'Yin Yang Talisman'?"

Not in a hurry to enter the cellar, Li Boyang, after a careful observation of those mysterious symbols, quickly came to a conclusion.

The twelve talismans left by the Huai River Witch each have their wonderful use, among them is an exceptionally complex talisman.

The number of proverbs making up that talisman is so many that it almost equals the total number of three or four other talismans.

The effect of that talisman is difficult to describe in words, playing more of a coordination and balancing role.

For example, when Li Boyang gathered the water veins, he frequently used the power of this talisman to weaken and slow down various secondary disasters caused by it.

Especially at the very bottom of the Mountain God Reservoir, where a huge Yin Yang Talisman is still engraved.

Should any huge crisis occur in the reservoir, that Yin Yang Talisman stands as the last safety valve.

Due to this special nature.

Li Boyang chose to name that talisman the "Yin Yang Talisman"—meaning the balance of Yin and Yang.

"It's a pity it's too coarse, not grasping the true essence at all."

With a smile, Li Boyang casually altered a mysterious symbol on the altar, and a loud bang resonated in the air.

Crack...

A sound like the shattering of a mirror, as if the altar's collapse was imminent...

An observable distortion rapidly appeared, and the original cellar entrance was buried in the process.

"This is a talisman balancing all things, yet you can't even balance the talisman itself."

"If merely altering a few strokes causes the talisman to collapse, can it really be a talisman balancing all things?"

When Li Boyang looked up at the cellar entrance again, a white seven-tailed fox had appeared where it originally stood.

"You truly are the witch's successor, no wonder you could immediately spot this was a trap."

The Seven-tailed Fox's voice seemed ethereal, yet the envy and fear in her eyes were undisguised.

"A trap?"

With a faint, mocking smile, Li Boyang's red hair began to burn and dance.

Clearly possessing the appearance of a six or seven-year-old child, the majesty Li Boyang exuded was greater than that of any elder.

"Indeed, a cunning fox, planning to deceive me even now?"

Without giving the Seven-tailed Fox a chance to retort, Li Boyang's third eye gradually opened on his forehead.

"If this were merely a trap, how could you have so meticulously designed such a grand altar?"

"Your true form must be hiding inside, right?"

"You must not want me to enter, so you're trying to trick me into leaving?"

When Li Boyang mentioned "true form," the Seven-tailed Fox's expression changed instantly.

The Seven-tailed Fox knew her Illusion Technique had reached its peak.

Who would have thought that the red-haired child, without even touching her, had seen through the trick in advance?

"Sight, sound, taste, even environmental changes caused by movement were simulated..."

"Your Illusion Technique is indeed quite realistic, I didn't even notice at first."

Upon saying this, Li Boyang paused slightly.

"It's a pity you couldn't hide it from my third eye..."

"This eye possesses the ability to see through illusions and can directly perceive the flow of Primordial Qi."

"And the illusion you created lacks the flow of Primordial Qi; that's your biggest flaw."

Over the years, Li Boyang's Celestial Eye had long completed its transformation.

From initially only seeing the flow of Primordial Qi.

To now achieving the special effect of 'breaking all illusions' in conjunction with the Primordial Spirit.

Li Boyang felt that sooner or later, his Celestial Eye would evolve into a divine eye like Erlang God, Grandmaster Wen, or Wang Lingguan, able to gaze upon the heavens and survey the nine hells.

"Do you think I am just an illusion?"

Realizing the difficulty of dealing with Li Boyang, the Seven-tailed Fox restrained her emotions, her face turning ferocious.

Woo!

With a light breeze, the Seven-tailed Fox launched a silent attack.

"Now, I'll tell you a truth: Illusion Technique, to its extreme, can kill!"

However, facing the Seven-tailed Fox's lethal claws, Li Boyang stood motionless.

Swoosh!

A flash of cold light flickered and disappeared, changing the Seven-tailed Fox's expression drastically.

Because a lethal Sword Qi spontaneously shot out from Li Boyang's body, instantly slicing the Seven-tailed Fox in two.

This was the Body-Protecting Sword Qi that Li Boyang was born with, an extremely aggressive defensive instinct.

As long as Li Boyang was in danger — even if that danger originated from illusion — the Body-Protecting Sword Qi would activate automatically, giving attackers no chance to exploit.

"Is this your confidence in coming alone?"

Faced with this situation, the Seven-tailed Fox, who had been split in half by the Sword Qi, unexpectedly spoke again, transforming into two different Seven-tailed Foxes.

"At a time like this, you're still trying to fool me?"

With a wry smile, Li Boyang glanced at the Seven-tailed Fox, refusing to believe she was unaware of his strength.

After all, if she knew nothing about him, she wouldn't have deliberately hidden in Mountain Village for so long.
