711 Inhibitions (2/2)
”Really?” At this, Jin Yao jumped up in amazement. ”Young Brother Jia, don't trick me. I've tried out a lot of ways, but none of them has worked!”
”This is a unique technique of my Jia Family. It's not hard for me!” Zhou Bao easily made that up. He had discovered the wonders of this Psychic Jade Talisman. But since he was pretending to be an Individual Immortal, he could not just sort out this Psychic Jade Talisman devised by several Venerables. However, if he claimed that he could fix this problem with a unique technique passed down in the Jia Family, that would make sense. Anyway, Jin Yao did not suspect Zhou Bao at all, for it was no secret that powerful families like the Jia Family might have some secret skills.
As Zhou Bao's fingertips waved gently, jets of scattered light flashed, then landed on the Psychic Jade Talisman and completely oppressed the fluctuations of the Dharma power in the Psychic Jade Talisman.
”Perfect, really perfect! Now, I'm finally relieved!”
”You don't have anything to worry about and you don't need to return it anymore!” Zhou Bao cracked a smile.
”Hee hee!” Hearing this, a trace of greed flitted across the eyes of Jin Yao. For an Individual Immortal like him, a Pure Yang Celestial Device was quite appealing. But soon, he stifled his greed with great determination. Although Zhou Bao explained that the technique was a unique skill of the Jia Family, judging by the incantation Zhou Bao recited and the abstruse hand gestures he had made, Jin Yao was sure that this technique was not something a normal Individual Immortal could master. The fact that Jia Qingping's strength which was publicly known, was already above his, made him quickly dismiss any greedy ideas he had.
”This object is indeed precious. But it belongs to your Jia Family after all. Anyway, you are the who erased its spirit. If I continue to refine it, problems may arise. Since keeping it with me would only create problems, I'd better give it to somebody else.”
”That's reasonable. I didn't realize that you have so much foresight!” Zhou Bao beamed. He lifted his hands and the Yin and Yang Dust Formation leaped into his sleeves. ”Now, could you show me the Hidden Treasure?”
”Er—” Jin Yao's expression went a bit slack. ”Though most of those practitioners are Level Two or Level Three Individual Immortals and the strongest one among them is merely a Level Four Individual Immortal, there are quite a number of them, so I'm afraid you and I are not strong enough to fight against them. Let me—”
”I know you're going to find several other friends, but that's not necessary. Now, I am quite interested in the Hidden Treasure and those practitioners. Thus, I'm not going to wait any longer!” Zhou Bao interrupted him.
”Er, but they—” Before Jin Yao could finish his words, a stream of majestic spirit flooded out from Zhou Bao and permeated the entire space of the cave.
Level Three Individual Immortal.
Level Four Individual Immortal.
Level Five Individual Immortal.
Level Six Individual Immortal.
Level Seven Individual Immortal.
...
Jin Yao sensed that the rank of Zhou Bao's Dharma power had soared up at an incredulous speed. In just a few seconds, Zhou Bao transformed from a Level Two Individual Immortal to a Level Seven Individual Immortal.
Level Seven Individual Immortal!
At this point, his eyeballs nearly popped out of its sockets in shock. How could Jia Qingping rise from a Level Two Individual Immortal to a Level Seven Individual Immortal in such a short period? Could it be—
”You have been hiding your actual strength!”
”Got to. I'm too young to have such strength!” Zhou Bao shrugged and uttered one more sentence, ”Tell me, with our combined strength, can we have a look at the Hidden Treasure now?”
”Sure, of course!” By now, Jin Yao was thoroughly chilled at this discovery. One of the reasons he had approached Zhou Bao was that he recognized him as the prodigy in the Jia Family, but another reason was that he thought he could take advantage of this young man. Despite his outstanding strength, Jin Yao believed that he was fully capable of deceiving this inexperienced boy. However, never could he have imagined that this young teen could possess such strong powers.
