Chapter 1505: Chapter 352_2
After receiving the talisman, I actually wanted to see if there was a mission to assassinate my master, but I could only see ten missions. Not to mention the tasks concerning our Hundred Peaks Sect, I didn’t even see any tasks related to our Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty.”
“Wait a moment…” Cao Zhen interrupted Yan Yourong, saying, “Are you talking about a talisman? Are all your missions displayed on the talisman?”
“Yes, Master, do you want to take a look?” Yan Yourong said, then took a talisman out from her chest.
Cao Zhen was bewildered, why don’t you put the talisman in the Qiankun Bag? Why keep it in your chest?
“I’m not interested in the talisman. Put it away for now. A girl shouldn’t carry things like that in her chest. Listen to me and put it in the Qiankun Bag. Alright, now come with me, I will teach you some spells.”
As Cao Zhen said, he casually added, “By the way, remember to give the Qiankun Bag to your senior sister. You know the rules of our Four Treasures Peak. All acquired resources must be collected together, and later I will distribute them to you based on your needs.”
Yan Yourong was suddenly stunned. When did their Four Treasures Peak have such a rule?
However, under her master’s signaling gaze, she still put all her talismans into the Qiankun Bag and handed it to her senior sister.
Then, Cao Zhen motioned Ling Xi to put the Qiankun Bag down, before recruiting them, and led them out of Four Treasures Peak, flying to a nearby uninhabited mountain peak.
Once Yan Yourong landed, she asked full of suspicion, “Master, why did you ask me to put down the Qiankun Bag? Is there something wrong with my Qiankun Bag?”
Cao Zhen shook his head and said, “It’s not your Qiankun Bag, but maybe your talisman has a problem.”
Yan Yourong became even more perplexed, “What could be wrong with the talisman?”
“Those talismans might have listening functions, capable of hearing our conversations.” Cao Zhen recalled the mobile phones from his previous life, explaining to them, “Actually, not only that, the talismans might also have locating functions. Didn’t you say that the tasks you saw didn’t include those of our Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty? Have you previously brought the talisman to our Hundred Peaks Sect? And stayed for some time?”
Yan Yourong nodded mechanically and answered, “That’s right, I did return to Hundred Peaks Sect before.”
“That explains it. Think about it, if the talisman has locating capabilities, the assassins could naturally determine that you are from Hundred Peaks Sect.
And being a female at the Earth Immortal Realm, who uses a sword, they can easily deduce your identity. Knowing your identity, they certainly wouldn’t assign tasks about me to you. They also know our attitude toward mortals, regarding the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, so they don’t push those tasks to you.”
In Cao Zhen’s view, those talismans can select tasks, and after completing them, one can directly notify the assassins through the talisman, which obviously has some functions of mobile phones from his previous life.
In the previous life, mobile phones had data push notifications. During chats, it would suggest things based on your conversation.
Mobile phones could eavesdrop back then, so it’s possible these talismans also have listening capabilities, and just like mobile phones could pinpoint locations, these talismans might also possess locating features.
Of course, you can’t blame Yan Yourong and the immortals of this era for not realizing this. Mainly because they had never experienced electronic products like mobile phones, so naturally they wouldn’t think of this.
In fact, when he first dealt with the Pinbao Business Association, he considered having Ling Xi make such talismans that displayed various goods.
But they had too many products, how many talismans would be needed to handle that? Unless one talisman could flip pages by itself, which with Ling Xi’s current cultivation base and talisman-making skills, was far from achievable.
Besides, there’s another big issue, which is the ‘server!’
They need a top-tier treasure to support it, to serve as this server.
Right now, they don’t have such a treasure.
As for the assassins, their ability to create such talismans suggests they must have a top-notch treasure serving as a server.
Only, during the Reversal Mini Epoch Period, and even now, although the era has normalized, not all experts have awakened.
That means the world is still under celestial suppression, and power can’t be fully displayed, so how can the assassins’ top-notch treasure function?
Cao Zhen found it very strange.
The Heavenly Dao laid down rules, punishing those who break them, like the True Immortals and Earth Immortals awakening during the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth.
However, there are circumstances where the Heavenly Dao allows breaking these rules.
He has some vague insights into the Heavenly Dao’s rules, but he can’t fully ascertain them yet.
Listening to her master’s analysis, Yan Yourong’s face changed dramatically, showing a hint of self-blame as she said, “So does that mean by bringing the talismans back to Four Treasures Peak, everything happening inside is known to them?”
“That might not be the case.” Cao Zhen shook his head and comforted her, “First of all, everything is just my speculation. Even if it is true, the talisman would only be able to eavesdrop sounds nearby, not sounds from afar, so you don’t have to worry too much. Just find a place to put the talisman away usually. However, the likelihood of your identity as a Disciple of Four Treasures Peak being exposed is high. Later, you can check, I estimate tasks concerning our Hundred Peaks Sect or the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty might not be given to you at all.
