Chapter 490: 252. Master Lei catches a big fish (Added for "Da Meng Huang" alliance and "He Tian Tian" alliance)

Like Meng Shaojie when he first entered this realm, Kang Ming did not act rashly, but simply calmed his mind and observed this odd cosmic void.

While he was observing his current environment, Lei Jun was also observing him.

Indeed, on Kang Ming’s person, Lei Jun further confirmed his current conjecture.

To touch the shadow separated from the Dark Side of the Celestial Book, one’s Spiritual Soul must be relatively special.

With a cursory sweep, Lei Jun saw that Kang Ming’s Spiritual Soul also had something extraordinary about it.

Although different from Meng Shaojie, Kang Ming’s Root Bone Talent was equally inconspicuous on the surface.

Compared to the physical body, innate gifts often manifested more in the Spiritual Soul.

Not all those with special Spiritual Souls could integrate with the shadow of the Dark Side of the Celestial Book.

Even within this small group, only a very few particularly special individuals had the chance.

As Lei Jun observed Kang Ming, he recalled Meng Shaojie’s previous state. Upon reflection, he summarized the commonalities between the two.

After staying in this place for a while, Kang Ming’s Spiritual Soul took the initiative to leave The Pale Universe.

However, after some time, he returned once again.

Going in and out, it seemed he was attempting various things and even probing.

Due to personal experiences, he was more cautious than Meng Shaojie most of the time.

But under certain circumstances, he was bolder.

After Kang Ming made consecutive attempts for a while, Lei Jun chuckled and activated Ji Du, which resembled a dark, gloomy moon.

After a long while, a ring of silver moonlight flickered on Ji Du.

Meng Shaojie, who was on his way back to the capital, suddenly sensed something amiss with the shadow.

After much hesitation, he finally immersed his Spiritual Soul in The Pale Universe.

Noticing a ring of silver light shining on Ji Du’s surface, Luo Hou, where Kang Ming resided, suddenly fell silent.

However, the ring of golden light, like a solar eclipse, remained, indicating Kang Ming had not left.

As both he and Meng Shaojie were filled with shock and doubt, a light materialized before their eyes.

The light, before each of them, coalesced into characters and formed sentences.

The golden and silver lights on Luo Hou and Ji Du flickered simultaneously.

At this moment, both Kang Ming and Meng Shaojie were profoundly shaken.

More than the content of the words, they were astounded by their current predicament.

Lei Jun was mentally prepared for this.

If it were up to him to choose, whether emotionally or rationally, he would prefer Riyao’s approach in the Heavenly Book Main Chapter’s starry universe. This approach involved concealing his permissions and playfully mingling with his companions as an ordinary member.

Lei Jun had no desire to be a ruler or controller. He rarely gave orders to others in his daily life.

Of course, he also disliked being dominated and controlled by others.

Being an ordinary member of a group, interacting on equal terms with companions, also made it less likely to provoke resistance and alertness from others.

But as for Kang Ming and Meng Shaojie, the latter for now was fine, but Lei Jun had some plans for the former.

His plan was not about giving commands to that person.

Rather, he hoped that person could advance further, and sooner.

If Kang Ming could advance quickly, it would be of the greatest help to Master Lei.

For this purpose, Master Lei did not mind investing in advance.

Is this... a Talisman from my Taoist Sect’s Talisman Sect?

After observing his surroundings for a long time, Kang Ming saw no one else appear.

After a slight hesitation, he did not try to leave Luo Hou.

Reading the luminous characters before his eyes, Kang Ming grew even more astonished. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Although these Talismans differed slightly from what he had learned in the Yellow Sky Sect, they possessed their own profound mysteries and were not distorted or flawed.

Upon scrutinizing them, Kang Ming immediately felt enlightened, as if understanding something by analogy.

He was a key figure cultivated by the Yellow Sky Sect. Although his mentor who brought him into the sect had passed away early, he still received guidance from other sect experts. His insight was sharp, and his experiences plentiful.

Thus, after a careful examination of the Talisman characters, Kang Ming realized, These could be classics from before or after my Taoist Talisman Sect’s Daoist Rite of Reformation in ancient times.

The Talisman characters were not complete.

With only an incomplete picture, Kang Ming couldn’t help but feel an itch of curiosity.

But at this moment, he harbored more caution in his heart.

There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

Especially since the Yellow Sky Sect had been pursued and encircled by the Imperial Court and the Longhu Mountain Celestial Master’s Mansion for years. He knew they had faced countless such methods, including entrapment and ambushes.

As a result, Kang Ming restrained himself even more, refraining from looking at the Talisman characters.

However, beneath the Talisman characters, there were other sentences displayed.

Find more classics or Spiritual Objects containing similar Tao Containment? Kang Ming was surprised again.

Was this a task for him?

If he completed it, besides the Talisman Path’s classics and scriptures, might there be other rewards?

Kang Ming was astonished.

Could this be a trap or a snare?

Why target the ancient Taoist Talisman Sect’s classics or Spiritual Objects?

He was full of doubts.

But the characters before him remained calm and cold, with no further reaction.

On the other hand, Meng Shaojie’s situation was roughly similar.

The task was the same, but the advance rewards were different.

The willful effort to plant flowers may not bring them to bloom, yet the unintentional planting of willows brings shade... Meng Shaojie suddenly fell silent and contemplative.

The willful effort to plant flowers may not bring them to bloom.

This lesson he had learned for some years now.

At times, he even considered recognizing his own limitations and coming to terms with himself. He thought about not forcing himself to keep pace with Shangguan Zhengqing, Ye Song, and Zhang Ziye, feeling that he didn’t have to compare himself with them.

One step back and the ocean is vast, the sky is high.

Yet, the heart of the just-over-twenty-year-old still held some defiance, some fantasies, some sharpness.

So he gritted his teeth and refused to give up.

But where was his unintentional planting of willows that brought forth shade?

Look for ancient Taoist Talisman Sect’s Talisman Scriptures or Spiritual Objects... Where should I start looking? Meng Shaojie began to ponder unconsciously.
