“I don’t know what’s wrong. Ever since I broke through the True Immortal Stage, my cultivation level has been stagnant. It’s as if… as if something in my body is preventing me from making progress in my cultivation.” Nie Caizhu pouted slightly, looking very distressed.
"Really? Let me see." Upon hearing this, Shen Luo held Nie Caizhu's hand and used his magic power to check, but found no problems.
He tried several methods again, but still got nothing. He couldn't help but frown and ponder over his experience of cultivation in his dreams.
"Stagnation of cultivation is very common in the world of immortal cultivation. It may be because I have been practicing hard behind closed doors for many years and lack experience. Cousin, you don't have to take it too seriously." Nie Caizhu said upon seeing this.
"This matter really cannot be rushed. Let's slowly find out the reason. How long can you stay in Tianji City this time?" Shen Luo asked.
"It will take more than ten days to complete that batch of magic weapons. I will stay here before then." Nie Caizhu said.
Shen Luo nodded secretly when he heard this. This long time was enough for him to investigate.
The two talked for a while, and then Nie Caizhu stood up and said goodbye.
Shen Luo originally wanted to keep her here so that he could investigate the reason why her cultivation had stagnated, but Nie Caizhu was quite shy because of what had just happened and insisted on leaving.
"Hehe, boy Shen, I didn't expect you have such a fiancée. You are so lucky." As soon as Nie Caizhu left, Huo Lingzi's voice rang out.
"Fellow Daoist Huo Lingzi, I'm sure you've heard about Caizhu's cultivation stagnating just now. Have you discovered anything?" Shen Luo had already expected Huo Lingzi to be peeping from the side, but he didn't care and asked.
"Your fiancée is not simple. She looks like a human girl, but there is something else in her body. I can't see it clearly. Her stagnation in cultivation may be related to this." Huo Lingzi said in a serious tone when talking about this.
"You mean Caizhu is not a human?" Shen Luo was shocked when he heard that.
"Didn't I tell you that it's still not clear? Wait until this girl comes next time, and I'll cast a spell to find out." Huo Lingzi said.
Shen Luo felt relieved after hearing this, as long as the reason could be found.
Now that he had a clue about Nie Caizhu's matter, he was no longer anxious. He closed his eyes and concentrated for a moment, then took out something. It was the talisman book he got on the second floor of the attic in Donghua Secret Mansion.
Nie Caizhu said that the immortal Donghua was proficient in the art of talismans, so he immediately thought of this book of talismans, thinking that there might be a surprise in it.
There are a large number of talismans recorded in the talisman book, almost hundreds of them, arranged in order from low to high.
Shen Luo had always been very interested in the art of talismans, and he did not miss any low-level talismans. He looked at them carefully one by one, and gained a lot of insights.
When he saw the high-level talismans, he looked at them more carefully.
"The Holy Image Talisman, the God-enchanting Talisman, the Illusionary Shape Talisman... they are all excellent talismans." Shen Luo couldn't help but admire.
There are at least twenty or thirty kinds of high-level talismans in the talisman book, including the Qingxin Mantra that Master Wanshui had tried before. Many of the talismans have strange effects and are of some use to him now.
The book of talismans soon turned to the end, and Shen Luo's eyes fixed. At the end, there were five more complicated talismans recorded, which were even better than the Kun Earth Thunder-Attracting Talisman.
"This is a magic talisman!" He looked surprised.
He had always wanted to learn a few more kinds of magic talismans, but unfortunately he couldn't find them. He didn't expect to find them here.
