No hope for eternal life

Chapter 274 Tribulation-level Void God Talisman

After getting enough rest, Mu Changsheng began to formally refine the virtual god talisman of the tribulation-crossing level.

Mu Changsheng used the talisman pen to carefully outline the virtual god talisman. Everything went smoothly in the early stages, but Mu Changsheng knew that this was just the calm before the storm.

Suddenly, a ferocious blood beast appeared on the talisman paper and attacked Mu Changsheng with its fangs and claws. This was a resistance of the will of its essence and blood.

However, Mu Changsheng was prepared. Lightning flashed in his palms, and the mana in his body also surged out: "Five Thunder Purgatory."

A thunder cage trapped the blood beast tightly inside, and thunder kept striking it, constantly draining the blood beast's strength.

At the same time, the spiritual power in the talisman also surged as expected. Mu Changsheng hurriedly tried his best to suppress it, trying to keep the talisman stable.

After a long tug-of-war, Mu Changsheng finally suppressed the raging spiritual power, and the talisman pen in his hand moved again.

Although the first wave of riots was suppressed successfully, Mu Changsheng felt a shadow in his heart: "The last riot will definitely be stronger than the first one. Whether we can suppress the last riot is still a question."

In order to prepare for the final outburst of the Void God Talisman, Mu Changsheng slowed down the movement of drawing the talisman. He wanted to use this to recover his magic power and maintain his peak state.

Finally, Mu Changsheng's magic power was restored and his pen tip reached the final stage. The final riot was about to come.

Mu Changsheng was always paying attention to the changes on the talisman. He soon discovered the violent fluctuations in the talisman's spiritual power. But before he could take action to suppress it, the shadow of a golden-winged Roc appeared in front of him.

"Golden-winged Roc." Mu Changsheng was shocked, because the blood essence he used to draw the talisman came from the golden-winged Roc of the demon clan.

The phantom of the golden-winged Roc appeared at this moment, as if the owner of the essence and blood had come in person, captivating people's hearts.

However, Mu Changsheng knew that he did not have time to be shocked. He had to suppress the phantom of the golden-winged Roc as soon as possible, and then suppress the turbulent spiritual power of the talisman.

So, Mu Changsheng used the same trick again and trapped the phantom of the golden-winged Roc with the Five Thunder Purgatory once again.

But this time, the phantom of the golden-winged Roc did not surrender easily. Even though it was struck and hit by the power of thunder, it still tenaciously attacked the Thunder Prison, trying to break the cage.

Mu Changsheng naturally did not want to let the phantom of the golden-winged Roc escape, and immediately added three layers of thunder prison protection to the Five Thunder Purgatory, only then was he able to firmly control the phantom of the golden-winged Roc.

Afterwards, Mu Changsheng was finally able to suppress the raging spiritual power of the talisman with all his strength. He used all his magic power and the power of thunder fruit just to suppress the raging spiritual power.

Mu Changsheng even used the secret art of blood and qi transformation. Although he no longer practiced the Nine Transformations of the Physical Body, the method of burning blood and essence could still be used. It was just that he could no longer burn his blood and essence as recklessly as before. He had to use it on the blade every time, and now was the time to use it.

Using various methods, Mu Changsheng finally suppressed the spiritual power riot with his strength, and then a tug-of-war ensued.

It seemed that the situation was about to improve, but Mu Changsheng took too long to suppress the riot of spiritual energy. The power in the Xu Shen Talisman became unbalanced and collapsed automatically.

Mu Changsheng felt helpless about this and could only hand the failed Xushen Talisman to Taoist Master Xi, asking her to help dispel the backlash.

However, it was normal to fail for the first time, so Mu Changsheng took it as a summary of experience. After recovering, Mu Changsheng started to draw the Virtual God Talisman for the second time.

This time, Mu Changsheng smoothly passed through the mid-term spiritual power riot and faced the final riot.

This time, Mu Changsheng was no longer shocked. He suppressed the golden-winged Roc's phantom as quickly as possible, and then suppressed the spiritual power riot as quickly as possible.

But this time, Mu Changsheng still failed. The reason was very simple. He wasted too much time, causing the talisman to collapse on its own.

"I'm still a little short of my cultivation." Mu Changsheng sighed in his heart. Just like when he was in the early stage of Nascent Soul, he had to rely on the help of Taoist Master to successfully refine the Void God Talisman of the peak level of God Transformation. Now, even though his cultivation has reached the peak of Nascent Soul, he still feels that he is not strong enough when facing the Void God Talisman of the initial stage of Tribulation Crossing.

"Not enough power, not enough power..." Mu Changsheng pondered in his heart: "If my Thunder Fruit breaks through to the perfect state, the thunder power in the Thunder Fruit can be increased a lot, maybe it can help me completely suppress the spiritual power riot, but it is too late to break through to the perfect Thunder Fruit state."

Just when Mu Changsheng was in great distress, an idea suddenly occurred to him: "I got it. Since the power is insufficient, I can use the God Summoning Talisman to increase the power."

Having thought of a solution, Mu Changsheng immediately began his third attempt. Time was running out. Although it looked easy for him to draw the talisman each time, it actually took him several hours each time.

Just like the previous two times, Mu Changsheng successfully survived the mid-term riot of the Xushen Talisman this time.

When facing the final riot, Mu Changsheng first used a talisman to summon the gods.

After using the talisman to summon the gods, a powerful divine power instantly appeared in Mu Changsheng's dantian.

Without having time to feel the wonder of the divine power, Mu Changsheng directly used his divine power to mobilize the power of thunder. The two combined to form a thunder prison cage, which completely suppressed the phantom of the golden-winged Roc.

Immediately afterwards, Mu Changsheng mobilized the divine power of the talisman to suppress the riot of spiritual power in the talisman.

However, problems instantly emerged from this suppression. The divine power of the talisman and the spiritual power in the talisman did not come from the same source. As soon as the two came into contact, they caused a violent conflict, which in turn accelerated the overall collapse of the talisman.

"Oh no, I forgot about this." Mu Changsheng's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly realized where the problem lay. Using the power of the talisman to help suppress the spiritual power riot was the same as asking Taoist priest for help, and it could easily lead to conflicts between different forces.

Therefore, the third attempt to draw the Virtual God Talisman for the initial stage of tribulation also ended in failure.

Mu Changsheng frowned slightly and continued to think about countermeasures: "Since the situations are similar, the solutions should also be similar."

When Mu Changsheng and Taoist Master Wei were working together to refine the Virtual God Talisman of the highest level of transformation, they also had to work together many times before they were successful. The method Mu Changsheng thought of now was the result of many attempts to hone the power of the God Summoning Talisman.

Thinking of this, Mu Changsheng was no longer confused and began to continue trying.

The fourth failure, the fifth failure, the sixth failure...

Taoist Master Xian at the side also knew that Mu Changsheng wanted to refine a virtual god talisman of the initial stage of the tribulation. Seeing Mu Changsheng's failures, she even had a selfish thought in her heart: "It's okay to fail. If you lose the sect competition because of this, you don't have to participate in the life-and-death competition with the demon race."

Although winning is bound to have many benefits, whether or not one can win is a big problem. The human race knows very little about the demon race, and who knows whether the demon race will happen to have a powerful monstrous person at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

He didn't know if it was Taoist Master Nan's selfishness that played a role, but Mu Changsheng tried many times to hone the power of the summoning talisman, but each time ended in failure. He had failed eleven times in a row, and nine of the nineteen summoning talismans had been used up.

At this point, Mu Changsheng had to stop, because there were only two hours left until tomorrow's sect competition, and the remaining time was not enough for him to try again.

Mu Xun had also returned a long time ago. Although he didn't know what talisman Mu Changsheng was drawing, he could see that Mu Changsheng had been failing. Now seeing that Mu Changsheng had taken away the talisman pen and other items, he asked with concern: "Will the absence of that talisman have a big impact on you?"

"It's okay. Even without that talisman, we should be able to win the sect competition." Mu Changsheng said, shaking his head slightly.
