Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

"You're talking about him." Wang Yue also glanced at the young man, then said disdainfully, "Hmph, his name is Pan Xingyu. His strength isn't anything special, but he has a terrible temper, loves to show off, and really likes to bully newcomers. However, relying on his family's power, he's obtained many good treasures. In last year's newcomer competition, he barely managed to get first place by relying on those formidable magical artifacts. But to be honest, many people are not convinced by him, they just fear his family's influence and dare not speak out."

"Oh, I see."

After hearing Wang Yue's explanation, Chen Tian understood that this guy was a second-generation rich kid.

Like Wang Yue, upon seeing Pan Xingyu's appearance, the crowd in the plaza immediately quieted down, their gazes revealing disdain.

Of course, some people disliked Pan Xingyu, but there were others who wanted to curry favor with him by any means.

As expected, at this moment, next to Pan Xingyu were two Xianyuzong disciples with pointy mouths and monkey cheeks, and shifty eyes, constantly flattering him, appearing extremely obsequious.

Just then, Pan Xingyu seemed to have thought of something, and whispered a few words into the ear of one of them. The man nodded repeatedly after hearing this, then swaggered to the front of the crowd, cleared his throat, and said in an extremely arrogant tone: "Listen up, all of you. Consider yourselves lucky this time. Our Young Master Pan has just obtained a treasure, so you bumpkins can have a good look at it."

Having said that, this person turned around, lowered his eyes, and respectfully invited Pan Xingyu to step forward.

Upon seeing this, Pan Xingyu smiled and walked straight to the front of the crowd.

Seeing this, Chen Tian found it somewhat amusing. As Wang Yue had said, this Pan Xingyu was indeed someone who loved to show off.

It is said that cultivators should abandon all desires for personal gain in order to achieve the great Dao. However, not everyone can meet this requirement. Therefore, in the cultivation world, there are many different kinds of people, and there are quite a few people like Pan Xingyu who are extremely concerned about their reputation.

However, despite all this, Chen Tian was now also a little curious. After all, he also wanted to see what kind of treasure Pan Xingyu had obtained.

For a moment, everyone present, whether disgusted or fawning, focused their gazes on Pan Xingyu, wanting to see what treasure he could bring out.

Feeling the burning gazes of the crowd, Pan Xingyu seemed extremely satisfied. With a disdainful twitch of his lips, he said "Peasants," then reached into the front of his clothes. When he took it out, a yellow talisman appeared in his hand, with very mysterious and strange incantations engraved on it.

But when the crowd present saw this talisman, their eyes widened immediately. Some people who recognized this object exclaimed in surprise, "A Spirit Beast Summoning Talisman!"

Noticing the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, Pan Xingyu seemed extremely satisfied. This was the effect he wanted, to let everyone know that he was the invincible number one among the new generation of disciples.

"P-Pan... Senior Brother Pan, is that really the legendary Spirit Beast Summoning Talisman?"

After seeing this talisman, a Xianyuzong disciple present swallowed hard and asked in surprise. Because of his excitement, his voice even changed a little.

"Of course!" Pan Xingyu smiled smugly after hearing this and said, "This was bestowed upon me by the elders of my clan, how could it be fake? If you still have doubts, then fine, this young master will be merciful today and activate this Spirit Beast Summoning Talisman once for you to see."

Having said that, Pan Xingyu closed his eyes, held the yellow talisman in his left hand, formed a hand seal with his right hand, and muttered something in his mouth.

"Go!"

"Hiss hiss... Hiss hiss..."

Within this ball of fire, a giant snake with a body length of seven zhang emerged, flicking its tongue and glaring redly as it looked down at the crowd in the plaza from mid-air!

This giant snake looked extremely ferocious, with two fangs exposed, as if it was about to eat people.

"It... It really is a Spirit Beast Summoning Talisman!"

Seeing this scene, all the Xianyuzong disciples were shocked. No one dared to doubt Pan Xingyu's words anymore.

However, at this moment, the surprise in Chen Tian's heart was even greater than that of these people.

Chen Tian subconsciously patted his chest. There, he also had a yellow talisman similar to the one in Pan Xingyu's hand, which was exactly the talisman of Ling Yazi that had a hole broken in it by the formation diagram in the cave.

Wang Yue, who was beside him, saw the solemn look on Chen Tian's face and thought he was frightened, so he hurriedly said, "Don't be afraid, Junior Brother. This talisman of Pan Xingyu is called the Spirit Beast Summoning Talisman. It is made by extracting the souls of some extremely ferocious spirit beasts from their bodies and then sealing them into the talisman with magic."

"However, not everyone can make this Spirit Beast Summoning Talisman. Only old monsters whose cultivation has reached the Transformation Spring Realm or above can make it."

"However, because making such a Spirit Beast Summoning Talisman consumes a lot of spiritual power, and at the same time, the strength of the spirit beast will also be much lower than when it was alive because it no longer has a physical body, the number of Spirit Beast Summoning Talismans in existence is very small. Even if there are any, they are bought by some large families to give to their descendants for self-defense. After all, the only advantage of the Spirit Beast Summoning Talisman is that it requires very little spiritual power to activate, which is suitable for disciples with low cultivation."

"I see." After listening to Wang Yue's explanation, Chen Tian understood. However, after thinking about it, he asked again, "By the way, Senior Brother, can you tell me exactly what kind of realm is required to activate the Spirit Beast Summoning Talisman?"

After hearing Chen Tian's words, Wang Yue looked at him suspiciously, but still answered, "At least the seventh level of the Spirit Awakening Stage is required to barely activate it. But Junior Brother, what are you asking this for?"

"Oh, it's nothing, just curious, just asking." Chen Tian smiled and said perfunctorily.

Of course, Chen Tian would not tell Wang Yue that he happened to have a Spirit Beast Summoning Talisman on him.

After all, although Chen Tian didn't read much, he still knew the saying 'Innocence itself is not a crime, possessing a treasure is a crime'.

According to Wang Yue, this kind of Spirit Beast Summoning Talisman is powerful but rare, and everyone envies and desires to obtain it.

So, if others knew that Chen Tian had such a Spirit Beast Summoning Talisman on him, then countless people would definitely come to covet it, and it would inevitably be fraught with danger.

After all, in the cultivation world, everyone believes in the survival of the fittest.

In order to obtain higher strength, everyone will be crazy.

Thinking of this, Chen Tian's gaze also became serious!
