With that in mind, Xiao Hua sent the soul prisoner out of the space. Chen Xiaoyun was cultivating when he saw Xiao Hua appear. He was extremely happy and bowed. "Master …"
"This old man has something I want you to do, but do it within your capabilities. If you can't do it, immediately tell me …"
Chen Xiaoyun hurriedly nodded. Then, following Xiao Hua's instructions, he floated out of the soul prisoner and prepared to fly into the depths of the space. However, before he could fly more than three hundred meters, Chen Xiaoyun cried out in alarm and floated back into the soul prisoner. "Master, it's not that this disciple doesn't want to go, it's … it's that there are sharp blades all around, cutting into this disciple's body. This disciple doesn't dare to fly anymore …"
"Mm …" Xiao Hua patted his forehead and smiled. "This old man understands now. That soul was protected by the Death Substitution Talisman, so it can travel through space. You don't … I'm afraid it won't work."
"Master …" Chen Xiaoyun suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of Bliss Palace. "This disciple feels a bit familiar there …"
"Of course!" Xiao Hua explained. "There was an immortal corpse there, so of course you would feel familiar with its aura …"
At this point, Xiao Hua looked at Chen Xiaoyun's soul prisoner and remembered something. "Oh right, wait a moment. There's a coffin there that must have an extraordinary origin. This old man will get it for you!"
Xiao Hua returned to Bliss Palace and wrapped the immortal corpse's coffin with his mind. He directly sent it into the space. Chen Xiaoyun was overjoyed when he saw it. The coffin was much stronger than the soul prisoner.
After settling Chen Xiaoyun down, Xiao Hua seemed to be at his wit's end. He looked up at the Emperor Star Palace in the sky. Its position should correspond to the stone bridge on the ground. Who would've thought that it was a prison?
Xiao Hua thought for a moment and entered the space with his mind. He took the Five-Colored Luminous Core and prepared to try it out.
However, after taking the Five-Colored Luminous Core, Xiao Hua immediately saw the Death Substitution Talisman in the Jade Archive.
'I can't take risks for now. After all, there are still many immortals sealed in the Emperor Star Palace!' Xiao Hua thought to himself in the Jade Archive, "Why don't I try to understand this Substitute Talisman first? Maybe there's a way to seal it. Let's save Lu Shu and the others first, and then we can take the risk!"
After making up his mind, Xiao Hua, who was in the Jade Archive, looked at the Scapegoat Talisman with clear eyes.
Seeing more than 35,000 talismans flying out of the Death Substitute Talisman, Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive couldn't help but clap his hands and praise, "As expected of the Taigu Immortal Talisman, it's really amazing …"
Unfortunately, after looking at it carefully for a moment, Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive frowned and said to himself, "No wonder Huan Ji could only use this Death Substitution Talisman to suppress her spirit. It turns out that this talisman is already damaged, and the talisman array inside is also damaged. However … I only study the way to break the seal, so there's no need to be too calculative …"
Just as Xiao Huazi of the Jade Archive said, the Death Substitution Talisman not only contained talismans but also talisman arrays. Even without looking at the talismans, it took Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive several hours to examine the talisman arrays!
After looking away, Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive closed his eyes for a moment. When he opened his eyes again, he smiled bitterly. It turned out that the talisman arrays and talismans were one. If the talisman arrays were the form, then the talisman arrays were the spirit. A talisman arrays without talismans were just an empty shell, meaningless!
"Forget it …" Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive looked at the talismans one by one, and then transmitted his enlightenment to Tian Dao Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive. After a while, Xiao Hua of the Jade Archive exited the space, and his mind returned to its original position!
"This place is suppressed by the Crepe Myrtle Eighteen Palaces, so it's not suitable for cultivation. It won't be too late for me to come back here after I've gained some enlightenment outside!"
Xiao Hua looked around and flew out of the Blissful Palace, landing directly on Dong Zun Mountain!
At this moment, the autumn moon was hanging high in the sky, and the green moonlight shone down, making the entire Dong Zun Mountain extremely quiet!
An extremely mysterious feeling rose from the bottom of Xiao Hua's heart. He felt as if he had returned to the night when Master Qin Qin was attacked by the Six-Eared Macaque in the Million Mountains of the Mortal Realm. He couldn't help but look at the Death Substitute Talisman in his hand and wondered, "This item should be extremely important, but … why do I have such a feeling?"
Xiao Huazi didn't know that in the vast night sky, in a place that transcended time and space, there was a huge space that looked like a talisman, and a green jade pendant was emitting a faint flame! (See "Six Years of Talisman Crafting Compulsory Education" for details)
"Let's do it here!" Xiao Hua put away his distracting thoughts, looked around, and simply sat cross-legged on the peak of Dong Zun Mountain. First, he waved his hand to set up the Immortal Restriction, and then began to comprehend the light and shadow from before.
About a Yuan later, Xiao Hua of Tian Dao's understanding of the Death Substitute Talisman gradually came into Xiao Hua's mind.
Xiao Hua began to move his hands, guiding the Immortal Qi to test the Immortal Incantation.
After that, every Yuan Day, there would be a surge of understanding of a talisman. For almost half a century, Xiao Hua didn't dare to delay and absorbed all of these understandings one by one.
Seeing that he was about to finish comprehending more than 35,000 talismans, Xiao Hua already had some understanding. There should be 36,500 talismans in this Death Substitute Talisman, the number was the same as the strange beast on the stone bridge, the dragon in the Dragon Pool Palace, and the phoenix in the Phoenix Pavilion Palace.
Therefore, while he was comprehending these, he took his time to cite his previous understanding of the "curse", and began to make up for more than 1,000 talismans.
It was not easy to make up for it with just talismans, but talismans were compatible with the talisman array of the Death Substitute Talisman. Therefore, in the next three lifetimes, Xiao Hua put talismans, talisman arrays, and talisman incantations together to comprehend, verify, and make up for each other. Gradually, as Xiao Hua went deeper into the profoundness of talismans and the exquisiteness of talisman arrays, he almost forgot the original intention of comprehending the Death Substitute Talisman.
Seeing that he had thoroughly comprehended both talisman arrays and talismans on this Yuan Day, and that even his talisman incantations had made great progress, Xiao Hua couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar. He clapped his hands and said, "The Primeval Immortal Restriction is really amazing. It uses 36,500 talismans to form 18 talisman arrays. These 18 talisman arrays correspond to the nine souls and nine spirits, and can engrave the imprint of the immortal's soul into the talisman arrays. As long as there is an attack that can destroy the soul, the talisman arrays of the Death Substitute Talisman can use the imprint of the soul to block it!"
After saying that, Xiao Hua couldn't help but form a seal with both hands, wanting to refine a talisman. However, when he cast the immortal art, Xiao Huazi couldn't help but laugh. Not to mention that he only knew how to refine the Death Substitute Talisman, he didn't know the material used to refine it. The purpose of comprehending the Death Substitute Talisman … was to save the sealed immortals!
Xiao Hua put away his joy and released Wannian to take a look. The stone bridge was still the same, and the strange beast statues were still the same. Even when Xiao Hua entered the Blissful Palace and the Dragon Lake Palace, there were no changes.
However, when Xiao Hua looked at the Ziwei Eighteen Palaces again, he was confident again. The entire array was actually the talisman array of the Death Substitute Talisman. What Xiao Hua wanted to do was to break this talisman array that already had a flaw!
"It's still not easy …" Xiao Hua looked at the Ziwei Star Palace, feeling a little hesitant to act. He frowned and thought to himself, "If the Ziwei Star Palace was below the Eighteen Palaces, I might have ten thousand ways to break the talisman arrays one by one. However, the Ziwei Star Palace is outside. As long as I break one talisman array, the other seventeen talisman arrays will become unbalanced, and unpredictable attacks will fall into them. Lu Shu and the others' situation is unclear, Xiao really doesn't dare to act rashly! "
"The Death Substitute Talisman's talisman arrays are intertwined, and the number of double nines is balanced. If I want to break it, I'm afraid I'll have to break it with a formation. Xiao has a lot of Fortune Gate disciples, but there aren't many who can set up a formation in this space. Even now, with his understanding of talisman arrays, Xiao probably won't be able to fly freely …"
Thinking of this, Xiao Hua's eyes suddenly lit up!
