No hope for eternal life

Chapter 151 Screening Rules

Afterwards, Mu Changsheng walked into his room and decided to refine the necessary talismans first before continuing to comprehend the artistic conception of the stone tablet.

Although it was his own room, Mu Changsheng had never lived there before. Now he realized that there was a different world inside the room and the space was large enough for Mu Changsheng to play around.

Mu Changsheng sat in the center of the room and began to refine the Fiery Sun Talisman. Mu Changsheng was already very familiar with this talisman and could maintain a success rate of over 50%.

In the end, Mu Changsheng obtained 266 Fiery Sun Talismans from 500 bottles of Fiery Sun Talisman Liquid, plus the previous 257, a total of 523 Fiery Sun Talismans.

Afterwards, Mu Changsheng began to refine the third-grade elixir-inviting talisman and took out the Yangluo paper that he had prepared.

"Let me see if this Yangluo paper is worth the price of five hundred medium-grade spirit stones." Mu Changsheng said secretly and began to refine the spirit-summoning talisman.

Fu Bi Efeng wrote on the golden Yangluo paper with great speed. During the process, Mu Changsheng made several small mistakes, which should have led to the leakage of magic power and total collapse, but in the end he was safe and sound. This shows that the Yangluo paper is effective.

Thanks to this, Mu Changsheng achieved success the first time he used Yangluo paper. This also greatly boosted Mu Changsheng's confidence, and he continued to devote all his energy to drawing the Dan-Qing Talisman.

After one day and one night, all the one hundred sheets of Yangluo paper were used up, and a total of thirty-nine Dan-soliciting talismans were obtained. The success rate was close to 40%, which was already very exaggerated.

Mu Changsheng sighed in his heart: "It's a pity that the price of a pill-requiring talisman is less than 500 middle-grade spirit stones. No matter how high the success rate is, it is still a loss-making business. If it weren't for the Six Nations Trial, who would be willing to use Yangluo paper to refine a third-grade talisman."

Although the Yang Luo paper was used up, only half of the talisman liquid for the elixir-inviting talisman had been used up. Because Mu Changsheng had purchased a total of 200 talismans and talisman liquid for the elixir-inviting talisman, after deducting the 100 talismans of Yang Luo paper and the 10 talismans that had been used at Mr. Yang's house before, there were still a full 90 talismans left.

However, Mu Changsheng did not plan to buy Yangluo paper again, because the Pill Summoning Talisman was different from the Lieyang Talisman and could not be used unlimitedly. Just like the second-grade Spirit Summoning Talisman, Mu Changsheng could only use two Pill Summoning Talismans at most at a time. He would have to go through a weak period of several hours after each use, so he was destined not to use too many Pill Summoning Talismans.

Therefore, Mu Changsheng directly used ordinary talisman paper to refine the remaining spirit-summoning talismans.

In the end, ninety portions of talisman liquid were used to produce thirteen finished elixir talismans, plus the thirty-nine that Yang Luozhi had obtained before and the one that was successfully completed at Yang Wuque's house, totaling fifty-three.

After the elixir talisman was refined, it was time for Mu Changsheng to use his newly purchased third-grade magic talisman. This was what Mu Changsheng thought of on the way back to the capital. He didn't know what the rules of the Six Nations Trial were, but perhaps the magic talisman could be used to increase the speed of the cultivator.

The difficulty of making the magic talisman is no less than that of making the elixir talisman, so Mu Changsheng specially purchased 500 bottles of talisman liquid, hoping to get a few more magic talismans.

The first time Mu Changsheng refined the magic talisman, no matter how careful he was, he still couldn't escape the fate of failure.

Mu Changsheng skillfully threw the failed Divine Travel Talisman into the corner of the room. Unlike the backlash explosion of the Fiery Sun Talisman and other talismans, the backlash of the failed Divine Travel Talisman was a violent tornado of spiritual power. Although it was extremely powerful, it could not cause any harm to Mu Changsheng, who had a strong physical body.

After three more failures, Mu Changsheng finally succeeded on the fifth try.

"Although in theory the difficulty of the Divine Travel Talisman is no less than that of the Pill Summoning Talisman, in reality I feel that the Divine Travel Talisman is still a little easier." Mu Changsheng concluded in his heart, which also gave him some confidence.

In the end, Mu Changsheng obtained 95 finished products out of 500 sets of magic talismans. Without using Yangluo paper, he could still have a success rate of nearly 20%, which was quite good.

After doing all this, Mu Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief. All the preparations had been done. The only thing he needed to do now was to wait, wait for the screening before the trial, and wait for the final six-nation trial.

So, in the following days, Mu Changsheng only did three things: cultivating his magic power and physical body and comprehending the artistic conception of the stone tablet.

Time passed by like this, and the three-month deadline finally arrived. Today was the screening before the trial. The trial required five people, but there were still eight applicants excluding the dead Song Zhi, plus the people secretly trained and recruited by the royal family, so there was a need for a screening to choose the final five people.

Mu Changsheng walked out of the room and prepared to take the screening test. Shen Qianliu, Xue Shaoyang, Bai Kunyu, Jiang Yuheng, Ximen Lie, Lan Kuohai, Feng Li and seven others had also walked out of the room and scattered in the courtyard.

Seeing Mu Changsheng joining, the expressions on everyone's faces were different, but there was no contempt anymore. This was closely related to Shen Qianliu, because Shen Qianliu often reminded and warned Bai Kunyu and others.

Mu Changsheng was no longer surprised by this, so he bowed slightly to Feng Li and said, "Greetings, Princess."

Mu Changsheng hasn't seen Feng Li these days. He thought that the other party might not be interested in the training conditions in this villa. After all, she was a princess who grew up in the palace.

Feng Li nodded slightly to Mu Changsheng with a hint of curiosity in her eyes, because she had learned from the king Feng Ze that there was a master behind Mu Changsheng and he should not be provoked.

Not long after, the golden-armored general who had brought them here before appeared again and led everyone to leave the villa to participate in the screening.

After twists and turns, everyone was brought to a small courtyard by the golden-armored general. Just when everyone was puzzled, the courtyard underwent earth-shaking changes.

In the blink of an eye, everyone found themselves in a huge valley, with strong winds howling overhead.

"Welcome to the Divine Wind Cave." A familiar voice came, it was the voice of Lord Fengze.

Along with Feng Ze, there were seven other people, four men and three women. Mu Changsheng guessed that those four men and three women were the people secretly trained and recruited by the royal family.

Then, everyone bowed to the king Feng Ze: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

"Let me tell you about the rules of the selection competition." Feng Ze said with a smile: "During the real trial, you will also have to go through it in a cave, so I specially summoned you to the Shenfeng Cave. The rules of the selection competition here are the same as the real trial rules. You must remember the rules carefully: first, flying is prohibited in the cave; second, you need to hunt various Jindan realm monsters in the cave, and the ranking is determined by points. An early Jindan monster accumulates ten points, a middle Jindan monster accumulates twenty points, a late Jindan monster accumulates forty points, and a peak Jindan monster accumulates eighty points. The monster's monster core is used as proof."

"The rules of the screening competition are different from the rules of the trial. In the screening competition, you cannot steal other people's demon pill points, and the top five will not necessarily become the five people in the final trial. Because the trial is a team trial, it emphasizes cooperation. It is not the case that the stronger the individual, the better. If the strong person is brainless, he will also drag down the entire team. So, what you have to do is to show your skills as much as possible to let me, an observer, determine whether you are suitable to be a member of the five-person team."

"There are fifteen of you in total. The five with the worst performance will serve a hundred years of hard labor. This is to prevent you from deliberately performing poorly. After all, it has cost a lot just to train you. In addition, the one with the best performance will become the captain of the five-man team. After the Six Nations Trial, the captain's reward will be doubled."
