Chapter 1740: Great Heavenly Thunder Talisman
unior disciple still has one last question."> "You said.""As a humble traveler who has journeyed across the heavens for many years, I have often heard tales of humankind being considered the enemy of..."God forsaken"
When Shen Changqing heard the name, his expression twitched slightly.
Eight Wastelands of the Nine Regions.
Shenhuang also belongs to one of the Eight Desolates.
However.
Although Shen Changqing had been in the Underworld for over two hundred years, most of it was spent in seclusion. He knew very little about Shenhuang.
Shangguan Xinghe said, "Shenhuang is much stronger than Guhuang, and it is located at the border of the Netherworld. It is considered far from the center of the war."
Here is the translation of ">" :

My Shangguan family once evacuated from Dahuizhou and also wanted to enter Shenhuang.
It's a pity that at that time, the Shangguan family was just facing a major setback and had no confidence in establishing a foothold in Shenhuang. So they retreated and came to Guhuang instead.
Now that the Shangguan Family is resting and recuperating, although their strength isn't as powerful as during their peak period, it shouldn't be a problem to establish themselves in the Shenhuang Realm.
"If the Shangjia clan were to leave Guhuang one day, it would be courteous of them to inform this seat."
Of course!
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Xinghe's face was already smiling.
In his view, Shen Changqing's words meant that the other party was also moved and had the idea of going to Shenhuang with the Shangguan family.
Actually, this is quite normal.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
In a short time, Gu Huang will become the center of war.
Any normal cultivator wouldn't put themselves in danger.
Leave.
...is the most prudent approach.
If Shen Changqing is willing to evacuate with the Shangguan family, it means that the relationship between the two sides has taken another step forward. In this way, the Shangguan family might even have a chance to completely win him over.
Subsequently.
Shangguan Xinghe did not stay in Honglingfang Market for too long, and left with all the talismans.
After the other party left, Shen Changqing didn't immediately go into seclusion, but instead learned about the situation of the Hongling Merchant Guild.
Closed the door for a year.
The Hongling Chamber of Commerce has also undergone some changes.
The appearance of the thirteen masters of the Fu Dao sect caused the talismans of the Hongling Merchant Association to become more numerous.
After all, there are many talismans in the world. Even Shen Changqing obtained the Xuanling Fu Jing, it is impossible to record the drawing methods of all talismans.
Even the supreme imperial scriptures of Daoism could not achieve this level.
While they might not be as skilled in drawing talismans as Shen Changqing, these thirteen cultivators from the Fu Dao Sect each have their own unique opportunities.
Among those mysterious talismans, even Shen Changqing had seen them for the first time.
That's it.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The business of Hongling Chamber of Commerce has also improved a lot.
However.
...a year.
Shen Changqing had set the quota. Out of thirteen masters from the Fu Dao Sect, only three succeeded, while the remaining ten failed.
Out of the three.
The two were second-rank Fu Dao masters, one was a first-rank Fu Dao master.
The success rate of drawing talismans is actually not related to the level of talismanry, just like a second-rank talisman master drawing a second-rank talisman, or a first-rank talisman master drawing a first-rank talisman.
As long as one is drawing their current highest-level talismans, what matters most is proficiency and talent.
A success rate of one in ten.
Actually, the requirements are quite high.
Many solitary cultivators, due to the lack of lineage transmission, are even considered the weakest among符道宗師, despite having managed to reach that realm.
As for the success rate, it's naturally very touching.
To be honest.
Shén Chángqīng hadn't even thought that all thirteen masters of the Fudao Sect could pass the assessment.
To have three Fu Dao masters complete the first year's standards is quite beyond his expectations.
Moreover.
Of the remaining ten masters of the Fu Dao Sect, there were also a few who came very close to completing the assessment standards.
Nothing unexpected.
>
In three years, about half of the Fu Dao masters should remain.
This is the result.

This could be considered quite satisfactory for Shen Changqing.
Then.
...is to let Duànjǐng gather all these Fǔdào masters and give them another lecture on the Dao of Talismans.
Only inside the mansion, Shen Changqing first set up an array of restrictions to prevent the flow of extraordinary energy from spreading out, then in front of everyone, he began to preach.
In an instant.
Upon seeing this, one beholds the principles of the Great Dao laid bare in the void.
Heaven and earth transform.
The glow of the dawn appeared.
All kinds of phenomena and changes are now manifesting.
>
A group of cultivators led by Zhuang Daozi, upon hearing the true words of the Tao and contemplating the rhythm of the Dao, all unconsciously immersed themselves in it.
Shen Changqing explained the Tao of talismans. He was explaining it to cultivators like Zhuang Daozi, but also to himself.
>
His comprehension of the Dao Jing of the Emperor allowed him to have a different understanding of talismanry, but this understanding never truly transformed.
Now.
Explaining the Great Dao.
Shen Changqing was just sorting out his gains over this period.
So.
>
At that moment, he also had many thoughts in his mind.
Time flies.
The time for the sermon passed quickly.
In half a month.
This looks like it's meant to be text within an HTML paragraph tag. To clarify, I can translate the content *within* the tags for you if you provide it! Just remove the > tags and give me the text.
With the Daoist principles veiled, Shen Changqing had concluded this discourse.
Then again, looking at Daozi and the other cultivators, they are all still immersed in the preceding profound truths of the Tao, not fully awake yet.
To this.
Chen Changqing also did not speak to disturb.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Give a sermon once.
For him, it was like sorting out some of the confusing parts beforehand. The next thing to do, naturally, was to continue his secluded cultivation and comprehend the Earth Emperor Sutra.
"A half-month of preaching is as effective as a year's worth of studying the Earth Emperor Classic."
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
It seems that occasionally lecturing other cultivators on the Tao is actually beneficial to one's cultivation!
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
Shen Changqing smiled faintly.
This sermon yielded a great harvest.
Although I have never been able to comprehend the realm of a third-rank superior talisman master, many previously obscure and difficult concepts are now clear.
As long as he continues to ponder and refine, Shen Changqing believes that it won't be too long before he breaks through to the rank of a top-grade master rune master.
If a cultivator's cultivation base breaks through, then in the realm of Dao Fruit, they can also take another step forward.
Learning by analogy.
>
Though the paths of heaven and earth may differ, their ultimate destinations are the same.
Over the following years, Shen Changqing spent his time alternating between comprehending the Emperor's Dao Sutra, drawing talismans, and occasionally giving lectures.
Sermon Time.
Shen Changqing basically controls it once a year.

The first three years.
Shen Changqing lectured thirteen masters of the Fu Dao Sect.
>Three years have passed.
Of the thirteen Fu Dao sect masters, nine cultivators ultimately passed the assessment, while four failed.
Cultivators who pass the assessment can naturally stay in the Red Ridge Chamber of Commerce, while those who fail the assessment can only leave.
However.
Even if we were to leave.
The four cultivators also didn't have any reluctance.
For them, joining the Hongling Chamber of Commerce for three years and listening to Shen Changqing explain the Dao multiple times was equivalent to their own centuries of hard cultivation.
Even if I were to be banished as a result of this, it would still be completely worthwhile.
However.
To say that there is no regret at all, that's impossible.
After all, if one can stay in the Hongling Chamber of Commerce for a long time, they will have more opportunities to listen to lectures and gain insights. This will also allow them to make faster progress in their own cultivation in the future.
It's a pity.
Shen Changqing's rules were just like that.
No cultivator dared to provoke the majesty of a divine sovereign.
The remaining nine cultivators who passed the assessment also made significant progress in their talismanry skills, which led to a notable improvement in the quality of talismans sold by Hongling Trading Company.
Talismans quality improved.
The business of Hongling Merchant Guild naturally improved a lot.
That's it.
Compared to the entire Red Ridge Market, the Red Ridge Chamber of Commerce is also nothing special.
After all, even though the Hongling Merchant Guild is large, it's impossible to compare its tax revenue to that of an entire market district. Moreover, with Shen Changqing, the Divine Monarch, presiding over it, the security level of Hongling Market has greatly increased.
Many cultivators, in order to avoid enemies or powerful adversaries, are willing to pay out of their own pockets to settle down in the Honglingfang Market.
This approach can also lead to some trouble.
Among them, some cultivators openly defied the market regulations and attacked each other in full view of the crowd. However, before their opponents could stir up much trouble, they were directly suppressed by the law enforcement team of Hongling Market.
When the enforcement team leader forcefully subdued a powerful expert at the peak of the Divine Master realm, it made many cultivators realize that his strength was far more terrifying than rumored.
This is definitely not an ordinary God Lord of the Tenth Layer.
After all.
Even if it were the tenfold might of the God Master, even if it were a peerless expert at the peak of the God Master level, it would be difficult to suppress an existence of the same level.
The scene of the broken view can forcefully kill a divine master at the peak, which shows that the other party's strength is stronger than many divine masters at the peak.

That's it.
Even though Shen Changqing often secluded himself and had Duan Jing in charge of Honglingfang Market, few petty criminals dared to cause trouble anymore.
The empty space of the chamber.
A spiritual brush dipped in beast blood, sketched on blank talisman paper, mysterious lines appeared on the paper, as if formed naturally.
As the last stroke was completed, the paper trembled slightly. Suddenly, an extremely terrifying aura emanated from it.
The vast chamber was eerily silent, then a clap of thunder echoed through it, rolling and surging around the talismans like an invisible storm. It was truly terrifying.
“It’s done!”
Shen Changqing reached out a hand, and the talisman that gathered terrifying thunder power fell directly into his palm.
Feeling the terrifying power contained within the talisman, a smile also appeared on his face.
Six years!
Since obtaining the Dao of Earth Emperor Sutra, Shen Changqing had spent six years before finally breaking through the limit of a Grade Three Middle-Rank Talisman Dao Grandmaster and truly ascending to the Grade Three Upper Rank.
The talisman in his hand was a third-rank top-grade master talisman—the Great Heavenly Thunder Talisman!

This symbol, if activated, can summon lightning far more terrifying than a Divine Thunder Talisman to strike down powerful enemies. Its power level is equivalent to the full force of a God Monarch at the seventh level.
When the third-grade superior talisman was successfully drawn, Shen Changqing's talisman path realm naturally ascended.
Then.
Shen Changqing continued to draw the Sky Thunder Talisman, hoping to use it to solidify his realm.
After a long time.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing looked at the successful Sky Thunder Talisman in his hand, his face was a little speechless.
“After wasting a hundred sheets of paper, I barely succeeded once. Such a success rate is truly appalling!”
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
A one percent chance of success.
That's pretty low, actually.
But there's no way.
When Shen Changqing first entered this realm, his accumulation was insufficient in all aspects, and his success rate was naturally not high.
>
However.
As long as he gives himself some time, Shen Changqing is confident that he can directly improve the success rate.
As soon as he thought of this.
Shen Changqing closed his eyes to recover his depleted divine sense. When it was almost restored, he began to draw the Great Heavenly Thunder Talisman again.
