Chapter 560 Life-Saving Jade Talisman

But to Wu Ming's shock, the glass-like light screen in front of him shattered in less than a breath!

This sudden turn of events left Wu Ming stunned. He stared wide-eyed at everything before him in disbelief.

You have to understand, he had previously withstood the fierce attack of the opponent's Blood-Weeping Whip with the help of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!

Now, facing the same attack from the man in black, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is surprisingly vulnerable.

This strike was incredibly powerful, no less so than the Blood-Weeping Whip from before!

Could this be the true strength of the man in black?

Wu Ming couldn't help but gasp, inwardly realizing something was wrong.

What Wu Ming didn't know was that this ink-black flying knife was just a high-grade magic weapon. The reason it seemed to be more powerful than the top-grade magic weapon, the Blood-Weeping Whip, was because...

That's only because the man in black was facing a dozen or twenty cultivators before, but now he's only facing the two of them.

Just as the light curtain shattered, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda was also severely damaged. It emitted a faint light and fell down as if about to collapse, eventually ending up in Wu Ming's hands.

Upon closer inspection, a deep crack was visible on the body of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

Seeing the magical artifact that had been with him for so long suffering such severe damage, Wu Ming couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.

But the situation was urgent, and he could not afford to delay for even a moment.

Because at this moment, he could clearly feel the sharp, murderous aura emanating from that black flying knife.

If we don't quickly find a way to defend ourselves, the consequences could be disastrous!

So, at the critical moment, Wu Ming hastily cast a defensive spell, and in the blink of an eye, a transparent shield was erected in front of him.

Unfortunately, the shield that was hastily set up was far too fragile, practically made of paper.

Faced with the dark flying knife that came flying like lightning, it had no effect at all and was torn into countless pieces in the blink of an eye!

"Junior brother!"

Seeing this unfold, Pan Ning, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but scream in surprise.

He never expected that the man in black would make such a ruthless and decisive move right from the start, and by the time he realized it, it was already too late.

At this moment, he no longer cared about his previous discussion with Wu Ming to conceal his true identity.

Without hesitation, he opened his mouth and shouted.

With a crisp sound, a transparent light shield suddenly appeared, tightly enveloping Wu Ming like an indestructible shield.

The dark-colored throwing knife stopped abruptly the moment it touched the light shield.

It was as if they had encountered an invisible high wall, and no matter what they did, they could not move forward even a fraction of an inch.

Pan Ning was astonished, his eyes wide with delight as he watched the scene unfold before him.

He never expected that Wu Ming had such a hidden trump card.

It turned out that this light barrier was the life-saving jade talisman given to Wu Ming by Elder Fang of the sect.

This jade talisman is extremely precious, containing the power of a Golden Core cultivator's magic weapon three times over, enough to withstand three fatal blows.

Normally, Wu Ming always wears it around his neck, just in case.

This jade talisman will only unleash its power when truly facing a desperate situation.

At this moment, facing the black-clad man's fierce and unparalleled offensive, Wu Ming activated the jade talisman without hesitation.

In an instant, the light intensified, forming a seemingly thin but actually unbreakable light shield that successfully withstood the black-clad man's fatal blow.

Hmm? There's another trump card up your sleeve?

Seeing his triumphant attack easily neutralized, the man in black couldn't help but cry out in surprise.

His face was full of shock, and he was secretly surprised: a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator had actually blocked an attack with 70% of his strength. This was simply a joke.

What horrified the man in black even more was that he could clearly sense that his attack had no effect whatsoever, while the light barrier remained as solid as an impenetrable wall, without even the slightest tremor.

It felt as if the person he was attacking wasn't a Foundation Establishment cultivator at all, but a Golden Core cultivator with unfathomable strength!

"Could it be a magic weapon? No, judging from his current state, there doesn't seem to be any sign that his true essence has been completely depleted by using a magic weapon."

Well, so it's not a magic weapon.

"Could it be a talisman?"

When such a thought crossed his mind, a hint of undisguised greed flashed in the black-clad man's eyes.

At this moment, he stared at Wu Ming in front of him again, and his gaze had undergone a subtle change.

Before this, the black-clad man had already felt a little tempted and envious just by seeing the large number and variety of talismans that Wu Ming displayed.

Now that he has learned that the other party may actually possess a talisman treasure, he has begun to secretly plot in his mind.

We must find a way to seize all of Wu Ming's precious treasures!

The so-called "talisman treasure" is a special type of talisman, although it belongs to the category of talismans. It is quite different from the common talismans.

A talisman is a special talisman created by cultivators at the Golden Core stage who seal a portion of the power of a magical artifact into a talisman. The user activates this talisman during battle to unleash a portion of the magical artifact's power.

However, there is a fundamental difference between talismans and magic talismans.

A talisman can only be used once; once it has been used, it loses its effect.

In contrast, talismans can be used multiple times until the power they seal is completely exhausted.

There is a huge difference between the two.

Furthermore, it should be noted that only cultivators who have reached the Golden Core realm are qualified to create talisman treasures, but even these True Immortals would not easily create talisman treasures.

First, the raw materials needed to make talismans often come from the magic weapon itself, which inevitably leads to a reduction in the original power of the magic weapon.

Furthermore, a talisman only possesses a portion of the power of a magic weapon and may not be comparable to a full-force attack from a Golden Core Realm cultivator.

Therefore, talismans are like chicken ribs to a True Person at the Golden Core stage.

For this reason, talismans are extremely rare and precious in the cultivation world.

In the cultivation world, the number of talismans is far less than the number of magical treasures.

After all, no Golden Core cultivator would easily waste their own magic treasures to create talismanic treasures that would not be of much use to them.

Only those Golden Core Realm cultivators nearing the end of their lives might choose to use magic weapons to create talisman treasures in this way, perhaps out of a desire to leave a guarantee for their descendants.
