The Instantaneous Talisman is known to many in the Ancient Martial World who practice cultivation. However, even the ancient sects with long heritage might not possess even one or two of these talismans. These talismans, relics from ancient times, are specifically for saving one’s life. In many great sects, they are scarce and only held by elders, sect leaders, or exceptionally outstanding holy sons and daughters. They prepare the Instantaneous Talisman in advance when sensing danger so it can save their lives at critical moments.

When Tianshuang decided to venture to Sun Never Sets Mountain to seek the Immortal Elixir to extend life, the grandmaster of the Heavenly Number Mysterious Sect gave her two Instantaneous Talismans. An Instantaneous Talisman is not just one talisman; it requires two to function. The method of use is straightforward: one must bury one of the talismans in a location in advance, and the caster carries the other. In a difficult moment, using Martial Arts True Power to incinerate the talisman carried on one’s person will allow instant travel to the location of the first buried talisman, regardless of the distance. Of course, once activated, both talismans burn to ashes and cannot be used a second time.

”Although the Instantaneous Talisman seems simple, no one on Earth today understands the method of its refinement. It’s amazing that the Divine Calculation had such a relic from ancient times!” Dongfang Meng said earnestly.

”The Divine Calculation once consumed half of an Immortal Elixir, and his life span of seven thousand years alone speaks volumes about the realm he resides in. He surpasses many long-standing Ancient Martial Sects. I must meet the Divine Calculation if I get the chance!” Ye Tianchen said earnestly.

”That depends on your fortune... The Divine Calculation once said that he doesn’t want to see anyone, regardless of whether I find the Immortal Elixir or the second piece of the Transmission Array. We shouldn’t disturb him if he’s still alive as he will guide me...” Tianshuang said somewhat sadly.

Tianshuang was an orphan in the Mortal World, with both parents deceased. If it weren’t for the Divine Calculation who learned about Tianshuang and ordered her master to rescue her, she might have died long ago. That’s why Tianshuang forever remembered the grace of the Divine Calculation, which was why she dared to venture deep into Sun Never Sets Mountain to find the Immortal Elixir to extend his life. As long as there was a glimmer of hope to extend the Divine Calculation’s life, Tianshuang would put in a hundred times the effort. Such was her dedication.

”It seems that the Divine Calculation has sensed something about this matter and wishes not to be disturbed in his final times,” Dongfang Meng also said, somewhat sadly.

”We still have ten days until the conference in the Ancient Martial World begins. Let’s go to the Heavenly Number Mysterious Sect first. I think I must meet the Divine Calculation,” Ye Tianchen earnestly said, looking at Tianshuang.

”What if you can’t meet him?” Tianshuang looked at Ye Tianchen and asked.

”I believe we can!” Ye Tianchen said with great determination.

”I will take you there, but I can’t guarantee whether we’ll meet him or not,” Tianshuang hesitated, perhaps moved by Ye Tianchen’s strong resolve, and finally agreed to take Ye Tianchen and Dongfang Meng to the Heavenly Number Mysterious Sect. Whether or not they could meet the Divine Calculation was up to fate.

”Alright, let’s each channel our Martial Arts True Power to heal until dawn before we set out,” Ye Tianchen looked up at the darkening sky and said.

The next morning, the first person to open her eyes was Dongfang Meng. When she opened her eyes, she noticed Tianshuang and Ye Tianchen still healing with their eyes closed. She stood up, soared into the air, and surveyed the surrounding terrain. They had already left Sun Never Sets Mountain, which shouldn’t be far from here, but it was safe enough.

The second person to open her eyes was Tianshuang. Seeing Ye Tianchen still healing, with faint golden light flickering around his body, she was somewhat surprised. Ye Tianchen, who was initially a Superpower User and later became a Martial Artist, was progressing incredibly fast. He was blessed with the legacy of Yijin Jing, which included not only powerful methods to cultivate Martial Arts Power but also seventy-two Absolute Divine Skills. These were aspects that would tempt any Martial Artist, yet he had obtained them. His talent and fortune truly were enviable.

”Looks like Ye Tianchen still needs some time to wake up. He actually obtained the transmission of Yijin Jing. That’s amazing!” Tianshuang walked up to Dongfang Meng and said.

”These are enviable indeed, but his ambition is to reach the Martial Arts Peak and become an Emperor-like figure. The Martial Arts Great World is vast, and we’re just like frogs at the bottom of a well here on the unsuitable Earth for cultivation. I really want to see the vastness of this world,” Dongfang Meng looked up at the sky and said.

People must have some goals and ideals, otherwise life is meaningless. As a Martial Artist, pursuing powerful combat strength, profound realms, and eternal life like an Immortal is their purpose.

”I too would like to see this Martial Arts Great World, entities like the Emperor Star. Just, I don’t know whether we will have such an opportunity before we die...” Tianshuang also said with a smile.

After their experiences, especially those who have suffered hardships together, there is no need to say much. They naturally became friends. At this moment, Tianshuang and Dongfang Meng were just like that, both previously regarded as one of the four beauties of the Ancient Martial Sect. They had always competed in various aspects, but now, both of them had let go of these things, having learned more profound matters. The past competitions now seemed somewhat trivial.

”Sun Never Sets Mountain holds too many secrets. I fear we might never have the opportunity to understand them in this lifetime, but I can’t help wanting to know how Sun Never Sets Mountain was formed, why were there Emperor Level battles there? Why did the Wu Dao Emperor, such a Peak Emperor, live there, and also use the Seven-colored Divine Soil to plant seven kinds of undying Immortal Elixirs?”

”Is that bird we saw really the Divine Phoenix, and does it truly contain a page of the Immortal Scripture?” Dongfang Meng couldn’t help but mutter these questions to herself.

”Earth, once a place flourishing with Cultivation, has gradually evolved into what it is today, holding many deep secrets, and many things that people yearn to know. I can’t help but want to explore it. However, with such an ancient passage of time, even those with Divine Skills can only know bits and pieces. Anyway, Grandmaster once said that Earth is definitely not a simple place. Perhaps it has some intricately entwined connections with the Emperor Star...” Tianshuang said thoughtfully.

”Earth is related to the Emperor Star? This...” Dongfang Meng was stunned upon hearing Tianshuang’s words. As a disciple of the Ancient Martial Sect, she naturally knew more about the secrets of the Martial Arts Great World than Ye Tianchen, who became a Martial Artist later in his life. However, compared to Tianshuang, a disciple of the Heavenly Number Mysterious Sect, Meng’s knowledge was inferior.

The Divine Calculation, a life span of seven thousand years, just this lifespan alone is enough to shock the world, and being a sect that calculates the ancient, present, and future, one can imagine how many secrets they hold and know. Just mentioning any of these would be enough to drop any person’s jaw in surprise.

”Earth is related to the Emperor Star? Did the elder of Divine Calculation say this? Can you tell me?”

At this time, Ye Tianchen also opened his eyes, his eyes deeper, feeling an advancement in his cultivation, which surprised both Tianshuang and Dongfang Meng. They had not expected that Ye Tianchen could deepen his cultivation again in such a short period of time. His talent was truly astonishing.

”Emperor Star, I have heard many people mention it, but I don’t know what kind of place it is. Why would it have a connection to Earth?” Ye Tianchen continued to inquire after glancing at Tianshuang.

Tianshuang came to her senses, glanced at the sky as if trying to see the Emperor Star, then slowly said, ”Many Martial Artists’ understanding of Emperor Star is just superficial. I am no exception. The reason I said Emperor Star might have a significant connection with Earth is because Emperor Star is rumored to be the place where Great Emperors prove their Tao most often, and a place all Supreme Strong have visited. As for Earth, it is rumored that five Great Emperors of the Human Clan have been there. Why such unparalleled Great Emperors would take such actions remains unknown!”

”All Human Clan’s Emperors have been to Earth?” Dongfang Meng asked.

”Yes, Earth has given birth to two Great Emperors over billions of years. One was the Wu Dao Emperor, an Emperor at the Peak Realm, likely invincible to ordinary Emperors. Such heights command respect from any person, any species; the second, Emperor Ao Kong, lived for thirty thousand years and upon his nirvana, returned to Earth to suppress and seal the Demon at Sun Never Sets Mountain with the Mixed Element Bell, inspiring awe and a sense of heroics...” Tianshuang nodded and said.

Ye Tianchen was also surprised and frowned. These secrets about the Emperor Star, these legends about Earth, were all new to him, but he wouldn’t doubt them—Tianshuang had no reason to deceive him and Dongfang Meng, as it would serve no benefit to her.

”So you say, throughout the ages, the Human Clan has produced a total of five Emperors, and there have also been Demon Clans’ Heavenly Kings and members of the Ancient Alien Race who have proven their Dao and reached the top in different places, and Emperor Star is the place where Supreme Strong prove their Dao the most?” Ye Tianchen considered then asked.

”Correct, Grandmaster speculated that Emperor Star is the most suitable place for Cultivation in this Martial Arts Great World, even up to now. Whether it is the Spiritual Energy needed for Cultivation, the Divine Medicine for prolonging life, the transmission of Divine Arts, or even the Magic Laws of the world, all are most powerful there. When Great Emperors, Heavenly Kings, or supremes decide to prove their Dao and become Emperors, they all choose a place like Emperor Star...” (To be continued.
