I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense-Chapter 981 - 982 Talisman and Cabinet

Chapter 981: Chapter 982 Talisman and Cabinet

“Seeking death!”

The young man from the Blood Demon Sect grew furious, and in a flash, he was right next to the old man. He reached out a hand and placed it above the old man’s head, then suddenly exerted force, compressing and kneading the old man’s body inch by inch. Flesh and blood fragmented into a mass, bursting and splattering everywhere, finally turning into a puddle of mush.

“Pigs also dare to provoke the gods. This sect has no reason to exist anymore. Today, let the world see what happens to those who defy the Blood Demon Sect!”

The youth’s expression was cold and his eyes flickered with insanity. His white garments were stained red with fresh blood, a testament to his shame. It had taken him the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to fully slaughter these pathetic adversaries. If word of this got out, the reputation of the Blood Demon Sect might be completely lost!

From the void, an enormous bloody ghost claw suddenly appeared, slamming down towards the Devil Cloud Cave. Blood Qi surged, sending waves of energy roaring, the sect’s stones tumbled, and tall buildings crumbled to rubble within mere moments, leaving nothing but ruins and broken walls.

The entire Devil Cloud Cave was buried under the wreckage.

...

After doing all this, the cultivator turned around and left angrily. The memory of the Devil Cloud Cave ended here, and the surrounding scenery remained unchanged.

Li Xiaobai knew that all obsessions and memories had come to an end here. The ruins before him were the true appearance of the Devil Cloud Cave today.

The little girl sat on the rubble, weeping loudly. Despite being mentally prepared, seeing it with her own eyes still made emotions well up uncontrollably. The little baby nearby patted her leg, trying to comfort her.

Li Xiaobai said, “Life and death are significant matters. The Devil Cloud Cave chose death but found solace in it, which is rare. The only regret is wanting to see you, my precious pearl, one last time. But now, even that wish has been fulfilled.”

Swish!

Ten beams of golden light burst forth from behind a hundred children, covering a wide range, sufficient to encompass ten people.

These ten children appeared very agitated, or rather enraged. They stood up and started yelling, their bodies wrapped in golden light that solidified into the forms of fierce birds and beasts, radiating overwhelming battle intent and ferocity, and they began to kick and punch the small pebbles beside them endlessly.

Li Xiaobai squinted his eyes; evidently, the sight of the Devil Cloud Cave being destroyed had impacted these children. That thick golden aura was transformed battle intent, possessing formidable deterrence. Among the hundred children, aside from those who had some understanding, the rest felt fear and retreated, not daring to approach.

The golden fierce light around the ten children lingered for a long time. Seeing the trembling little ones around them, they felt quite proud.

“Yiyiyaya!”

Seeing this, the little baby decisively abandoned Fu Tiantian, who was still sobbing next to him, and with his little arms swinging, he dove into the midst of the golden battle intent and tangled with several children. For some reason, the golden aura seemed ineffective against him; with a slap here and a push there, he swiftly knocked down the ten proud children.

After finishing all this, he finally relaxed, having been slightly worried about being left behind as he saw the other kids soaring high; however, his recent encounters had shown him that his worries were unnecessary. Any show-off would be promptly and thoroughly beaten to ensure obedience.

“This baby is also extraordinary; he can isolate powers. Previously the immortal aura, now this golden battle intent, and even the Power of Faith from the Buddhist Sect seems totally ineffective against him. This little kid is incredible.”

Li Xiaobai was inwardly shocked, realizing the term Ma Niubi really wasn’t just for show; the child was truly incredible!

But he wondered whose offspring this was and why he was abandoned by the roadside for Fu Tiantian to find?

“Anyway, I’ll raise him for now. There’s also the kindness of fostering him. Later, if his family comes looking for him, I can use that opportunity to extort a hefty sum!”

Li Xiaobai muttered to himself.

The ruins grew quiet gradually.

Li Xiaobai looked towards Fu Tiantian with tearful eyes and asked, “Did you finish crying, disciple?”

Fu Tiantian nodded, “Master, the disciple has finished crying.”

Li Xiaobai responded, “Having finished crying, go and retrieve the things.”

Fu Tiantian replied, “Master, I think it’s best to leave the treasures buried under the ruins to accompany our many fellow disciples on their last journey. I won’t take them out.”

“Good disciple, don’t worry, your master won’t compete with you for them.”

“But Master, my power is still shallow, and even if I get the treasure, I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold onto it, wouldn’t you like to help me grasp it and let me honor you as my disciple?”

Li Xiaobai still spoke cheerfully, “My dear disciple, rest assured, your teacher won’t compete with you for it. I never seize others’ possessions.”

“Master…”

Fu Tiantian wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Li Xiaobai, “Hurry and fetch the treasure, your teacher is waiting to head to the Blood Demon Sect. Don’t waste time.”

“As you command!”

Fu Tiantian left with some suspicion, always feeling that her thrifty master had ill intentions of snatching the treasure from her.

Following the directions from her memory, she found the spot under the big pagoda tree as mentioned, dug up the broken bricks, and a small wooden corner emerged.

“It’s here!”

Fu Tiantian continued to dig around, unearthing a large hole, and pulled out a cabinet as tall as two people. The cabinet was exactly like the one in her memory, plain and boxy on the surface, appearing somewhat bland, yet its pristine condition under the ruins proved its extraordinary nature.

Unable to wait, she opened the cabinet, only to find it empty except for an eye-catching letter.

Opening the envelope, Fu Tiantian took out the letter and read:

“How about this cabinet, old man added some patterns on it, doesn’t it look much prettier?”

“Pfft!”

The young girl burst out laughing, amused by the patterns added to the corner pieces, which were faded and hardly noticeable unless one looked closely.

The cabinet was still as ugly as before, but she knew she would never discard it in her lifetime.

“Hum!”

A deep blue light emanated from behind the cabinet; Li Xiaobai and Fu Tiantian moved closer, discovering a talisman tightly stuck to the cabinet. It was deep blue all over, with golden threads seemingly flowing between the lines, mysterious and enigmatic.

“This talisman preserved all the aspirations and memories of Devil Cloud Cave’s inhabitants, and this cabinet and talisman remained intact under the attacks of Human Immortal Realm cultivators, unlike anything from the Immortal Spirit Continent.”

As Li Xiaobai spoke, the talisman seemingly grew eyes and accurately implanted itself into Fu Tiantian’s forehead, with a pale blue “talisman” character imprinting on her smooth forehead.

“What kind of talisman is this?”

Li Xiaobai asked, somewhat surprised.

“Disciple doesn’t know; the talisman transmitted some basic talisman drawing techniques which allow the disciple to draw talismans out of thin air. That cabinet was crafted to complement this talisman.”

The blue talismanic runes transmitted some information to Fu Tiantian, letting her understand the basic uses of the talisman and cabinet, and also revealing her grandfather’s painstaking efforts. It wasn’t just any cabinet for a dowry; it was a Magic Treasure, painstakingly consecrated by the old master day and night.

The blue rune on her forehead allowed her to draw talismans out of thin air, and the cabinet was meant for containing the talismans, with the strength of her drawing naturally closely related to her cultivation level.

“Master, both of these treasures are the keepsakes left by my grandfather, you mustn’t snatch them away.”

Fu Tiantian warned protectively, awkwardly shouldering the huge cabinet that’s as tall as two people and taking her leave.

“Don’t worry, disciple, your teacher would never do such a thing.”

Li Xiaobai maintained an air of integrity and after walking some distance, he couldn’t help but ask, “Dear disciple, since this cabinet is so spacious, and you can fit inside, why not let your teacher carry the cabinet while you stay inside? Wouldn’t that be perfect for both of us?”

Fu Tiantian: “???”
