“All right.”
That was indeed a problem.
Yun Heng was a little disappointed.
However, Dingchuan City was so large and had so many cultivators. If she didn't harvest every bit of Awe Points available here, she would feel truly unsatisfied.
But if she couldn't spar, what other method could she use to earn Awe Points?
Four hours later.
On the streets of Dingchuan City, Yun Heng continued strolling forward with Yun Zhao.
Along the way, people continuously recognized her.
“Isn't that Yun Heng?”
“It really seems to be her.”
“The black-robed female cultivator behind her must be that rumored powerhouse, right?”
“A late stage Soul Transformation at twenty-five years old—how in the world does she cultivate?”
Yun Heng maintained a calm expression on the surface, her pace not pausing in the slightest.
The System notification sounds in her sea of consciousness had never stopped.
She looked at the seemingly endless street ahead and asked in her sea of consciousness, “System, where else in Dingchuan City haven't we explored?”
【The places Host has walked through today account for only about one-twentieth of the entire Dingchuan City.】
Yun Heng was silent for a moment, then decisively turned around.
“That's enough for today. Let's head back first.”
“We'll continue tomorrow.”
Over the next month, Yun Heng appeared on the streets of Dingchuan City with Yun Zhao almost every single day.
As time passed, more and more people came to know her.
Thirty days later, she had finally walked through all of Dingchuan City.
At the same time, the Awe Points on her System panel had reached twenty thousand.
Yun Heng returned to Qunying Manor once more to collect her entry pass for the Five Domains Prodigy Gathering.
By now, there was hardly anyone in all of Dingchuan City who did not recognize her.
The person in charge of issuing the entry passes was still the same male cultivator who had registered Yun Heng a month ago.
Upon seeing Yun Heng, a smile immediately broke out on his face.
“Lady Yun.”
The male cultivator picked up a pre-prepared token from the desk and handed it to Yun Heng with both hands.
“This is your pass to participate in the Five Domains Prodigy Gathering.”
The token was dark gold overall, with the words “Five Domains” engraved on the front and Yun Heng's name carved on the back.
“In four months, the Five Domains Prodigy Gathering will officially be held in Tiandu City.”
“The route to Tiandu City has already been recorded inside the token, so you may set off in advance, lady.”
Yun Heng accepted the token.
“Many thanks.”
Yun Heng returned to Wanbao Tower to briefly take her leave from the Pavilion Master, then left Dingchuan City with Yun Zhao.
Outside the city, the Liujing Vessel expanded back into a ship tens of yards long, hovering steadily in midair.
The two boarded the airship.
Yun Heng stepped into the control room and placed the token she had just received beside the console.
A light-blue light screen quickly expanded, automatically reading the route recorded in the token.
Yun Heng entered the destination.
Tiandu City.
The Liujing Vessel slowly ascended, then steadily accelerated, flying away from Dingchuan City.
The light screen soon displayed the estimated arrival time.
【Estimated arrival in Tiandu City in ten days.】
Yun Heng set the airship to autopilot, then returned to her room and sat down.
Twenty thousand Awe Points.
Yun Heng summoned the System wheel.
“System, begin card draws.”
【Spend 900 Awe Points to perform a ten-consecutive draw?】
“Confirm.”
【Awe Points deducted.】
The wheel began to spin rapidly.
The first beam of light fell down.
【Four-Star Character Card: Talisman Master Xuan Yan.】
【Cultivation: Late stage Nascent Soul.】
【Grade: Grade Ten Talisman Master.】
【Proficient in Attack Talismans, Defense Talismans, Escape Talismans, and Sealing Talismans. Skilled in deducing and repairing high-grade talisman runes.】
A Talisman Master!
Back when she had interacted with Yan Yi, she had deeply realized the importance of talismans.
When talisman cultivators fought, they only needed to prepare enough talismans in advance and directly activate them when actually engaging in battle.
Not only were talismans quite powerful, but using them also did not consume much spiritual energy.
Back at the Martial Inquiry Arena, the Illusion Talisman Yan Yi used could even trap someone directly in an illusion. If Yun Heng hadn't happened to have a Barrier-Breaking Talisman on her, it would have been hard to say whether she could have snapped back to her senses in time.
Ever since then, she had wanted a Talisman Master.
Unfortunately, after drawing so many times, she had gotten Alchemists and Refiners, but a Talisman Master had remained nowhere to be seen.
She hadn't expected that this very first card of the pull would give her a Grade Ten Talisman Master directly.
The remaining nine cards flipped open one after another, all of which were talisman paper, spirit ink, talisman brushes, and ordinary talisman-crafting materials needed for drawing talismans.
Although their star ratings were not high, their quantities were extremely plentiful.
With Xuan Yan around from now on, she would have an endless supply of talismans.
“Continue.”
The second ten-pull quickly began.
After the wheel stopped, an entire Talisman Peak appeared on the System light screen.
Following that, buildings such as the Talisman Peak Master Hall, Elders' Compound, Talisman Room, Lecture Hall, and Peak Treasury for storing talismans and materials appeared one after another.
What was drawn on the third ten-pull was still Talisman Peak buildings.
The Dining Hall, Peak Affairs Hall, Talisman-Crafting Room, Talisman-Testing Platform, and Disciple Courtyard were all present.
With two ten-pulls finished, the basic buildings needed for the entire Talisman Peak were essentially complete.
Continue.
After the wheel stopped for the fourth time, ten character cards flipped open simultaneously.
【Three-Star Character Card: Grade Eight Talisman Master.】 Five cards.
【Two-Star Character Card: Grade Two Talisman Master (x20).】 Five cards.
Five Grade Eight Talisman Masters, and one hundred Grade Two Talisman Masters.
With Grade Ten Talisman Master Xuan Yan added to the mix, the staffing for Talisman Peak was sorted as well.
Although those Grade Two Talisman Masters were temporarily unable to draw high-grade talismans, they could mass-produce the low-grade talismans most commonly used by clan members in their daily lives.
The five Grade Eight Talisman Masters could stay by Xuan Yan's side and handle higher-grade talismans.
The fifth ten-pull began immediately after.
【Three-Star Character Card: Grade Eight Refiner.】 Five cards.
【Three-Star Character Card: Grade Eight Alchemist.】 Five cards.
Yun Heng looked at these character cards and nodded slightly.
Five Grade Eight Alchemists and five Grade Eight Refiners were perfect for serving as peak elders to share some of the pressure for the peak masters.
In the sixth ten-pull, everything drawn was handyman disciples for Talisman Peak.
In the seventh ten-pull, everything was books for the Scripture Pavilion and Library Tower.
Although the Scripture Pavilion had seven floors and the Library Tower had three, the only place actually stocked with books was the first floor, while the remaining floors were mostly empty.
Now that she had drawn another large batch of books, they could be placed inside.
The eighth and ninth ten-pulls were all Ordinary Spirit Soil.
Continue.
The tenth ten-pull began to spin.
This time, the very first card to appear was a complete mountain peak.
Spirit Beast Peak.
The remaining cards were basic buildings for Spirit Beast Peak.
The eleventh draw was still Spirit Beast Peak buildings.
The Peak Master Hall, Elders' Compound, Disciple Courtyard, Dining Hall, Peak Treasury, Lecture Hall, Spirit Beast Park, and Covenant Platform appeared on the light screen in succession.
Yun Heng looked at the newly appeared Spirit Beast Peak, feeling pleasantly surprised in her heart.
Yet another mountain peak.
And this peak was also something she needed right now.
Ever since Qingxiao and Canglan returned to the Guiyuan Spirit Domain with her, they hadn't had a fixed place to stay.
In their daily lives, when they weren't hanging around the Spirit Herb Peak, they were finding spots outside the Main Peak to cultivate.
It wasn't a solution to go on like that forever, so the arrival of Spirit Beast Peak now was right on time.
