Chapter 188: Ancient Escape Talisman

Free and without pop-up ads! After a round of browsing, Wang Weijun's response to every item in the grid was a single word: "Pass!"

Mi Xiaojing trusted Wang Weijun completely and had no objections. He continued to fly downwards, circling round and round. Occasionally, in front of certain grids, Wang Weijun would say, "Stop!"

At these moments, Mi Xiaojing would become excited, but usually, after about ten seconds, Wang Weijun would utter another "Pass!"

One by one, people made their selections and then had the Azure Descent Immortal Maiden unseal them. Each person was allowed only one item, no more. Despite the abundance of treasures in the treasury, they were all accumulated over generations. If people were allowed to take as they pleased, the treasury wouldn't last long.

This time, the sect had truly bled a lot.

Mi Xiaojing kept circling and quickly reached the bottom. The last two layers of grids were off-limits. The items here were the real treasures. In front of almost every grid, Wang Weijun would have Mi Xiaojing pause for a few seconds.

The Azure Descent Immortal Maiden frowned slightly. Seeing Mi Xiaojing wandering around the bottom layer, she couldn't help but say, "You can't take anything from the bottom layer, so stop wandering around there."

Mi Xiaojing had just finished his round and blushed slightly at her words. He quickly flew upwards, saying, "Old man, make a decision quickly!"

Wang Weijun didn't respond. He was considering what Mi Xiaojing needed most.

After a few minutes, Wang Weijun said, "Go up."

Following Wang Weijun's guidance, Mi Xiaojing hovered in front of a grid. To his surprise, the item Wang Weijun had chosen was neither a sword nor an Array Disk artifact, but a jade talisman.

The jade talisman was very unique, shaped like a triangular maple leaf. It was a faint vermilion color and looked very beautiful. The spiritual patterns formed the veins of the leaf, incredibly intricate and detailed.

However, there was a very fine crack on the talisman, barely noticeable unless one looked closely.

What kind of talisman was this?

Mi Xiaojing had never seen such a delicate talisman before. He remembered that he had paused in front of this talisman for more than twenty seconds earlier. He had found it strange that Wang Weijun had asked for so much time. It turned out that the old man had preselected this talisman.

"It's an escape talisman. Didn't you see the inscription? But this talisman is not ordinary. It should have been refined by a Loose Immortal. Probably because of the crack, it was placed here. They might not know that this talisman can be repaired. And it's not a one-time use item. It can be used many times. As long as you know how to maintain it and repair it, this talisman can be very useful!" 𝚋edn𝚘𝚟el.co𝚖

Mi Xiaojing was overjoyed. He asked, "Old man, is this talisman part of the Five Elements Escape?"

"It's more advanced than the Five Elements Escape. It seems that the cultivators here don't value escape techniques. In other planets I've been to, many sects consider escape techniques as important skills. But whether it's the Five Elements Escape or other escape techniques, they are easy to learn but hard to master."

Mi Xiaojing pondered and said, "I remember that the Starry Sky Qianyuan Art records an escape technique. Yes, it's called Starlight Escape! How is this escape technique?"

"Forget about it. That's an escape technique that can only be learned from the Soul Separation stage to the Body Fusion stage. At the Elemental Infant stage, you can only learn the basics."

"Ah, is it that amazing?"

"Starlight Escape... It allows short-distance teleportation in the starry sky and can cross the starry sky. Even if you only learn the basics, it's much stronger than the Five Elements Escape, Lightning Escape, or Wind Escape! Enough about this, you should take this talisman first."

By this time, everyone else had chosen their treasures. The Azure Descent Immortal Maiden flew down and hovered beside Mi Xiaojing. She asked, "Have you chosen this escape talisman?"

Mi Xiaojing nodded, "Yes."

A hint of admiration flashed in the Azure Descent Immortal Maiden's eyes. This child didn't aim too high and made a very practical choice.

The so-called escape talisman was essentially for running away. With Mi Xiaojing's strength, even though he was progressing rapidly, he was still a cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage, striving for the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment. If he were to get involved in a sect war, his chances of survival would be slim. But with this escape talisman, things would be different. If something went wrong, he could activate the talisman and run away first. His opponents might not be able to catch up.

If someone else had chosen this escape talisman, the Azure Descent Immortal Maiden would probably have scolded them. Thinking of running away before the fight even started? But Mi Xiaojing was different. He was now the sect's treasure, and his specialty was alchemy. As for fighting, the sect's big shots had never counted on him.

Mi Xiaojing's choice made the Azure Descent Immortal Maiden very satisfied.

The Azure Descent Immortal Maiden took out the escape talisman, removed the seal on it, and then handed it to Mi Xiaojing, saying, "The magical techniques and incantations for using it are attached to the talisman. Practice a lot. However, this talisman has some flaws. It can't teleport very far and can't be activated consecutively. Of course, if it had no flaws, it wouldn't be placed here."

Mi Xiaojing said, "Thank you for the reminder, senior. I'm already very satisfied."

"Humph, this old woman is cold as ice. She seems okay, but she's actually a fool. Tsk tsk, her explanation is so poor, she has no skill at all. I wonder how she cultivated to the Elemental Infant stage."

Mi Xiaojing was taken aback, "Old man, she didn't offend you, did she?"

"An ignorant woman! Humph, this talisman, actually, I didn't explain it in detail just now. This is an ancient escape talisman, and it was refined by a master from a famous family. Even in my prime, I couldn't refine such a talisman. Sigh... It's a pity. If I had such a talisman back then, maybe..."Wang Weijun's mood suddenly became gloomy.

Mi Xiaojing was secretly surprised, "Ancient Escape Talisman? I've noticed that anything involving the word 'ancient' seems to be a good thing!"

"Nonsense. It's not that anything ancient is good, but the fact that it can be preserved until now and still be usable. Which one of them hasn't gone through countless trials and tribulations? Anything that has been passed down like this, if it's not a treasure, then what is it?"

Mi Xiaojing suddenly realized the truth. It made sense. Slightly inferior treasures would have gradually been destroyed and disappeared in battles, in usage, and in the process of being passed down. Those that have survived until now naturally wouldn't be bad.

It could be confirmed that if one were to obtain a treasure passed down from ancient times now, it would definitely be much stronger than many of the current treasures. After all, it had stood the test of time.

"That makes sense!"

Mi Xiaojing couldn't help but praise. He really admired Wang Weijun, who had explained his doubts with just one sentence.

"Hmph!"

Wang Weijun raised his head, but it was a pity that Mi Xiaojing's Divine Sense didn't see it, and he missed out on Wang Weijun's proud moment.

Mi Xiaojing carefully put away the Ancient Escape Talisman. He was the last one to collect it. The others were already waiting at the exit, and no one was rushing him.

The Azure Descent Immortal Maiden said, "Let's go!"

Mi Xiaojing followed and flew up. Soon, everyone left the underground treasure vault and returned to the surface. As soon as they emerged from the teleportation array, Mi Xiaojing saw a group of Foundation Establishment Ancestors, staring at them eagerly.
