I Have an Omen System

Only a set of ocher robes remained, scattered on the ground.

SWOOSH!

The instant Pan Qifeng died.

A blood-red afterimage appeared, sweeping the ground clean of the Purple Mansion Star Order and all the scattered loot.

The whole thing took less than three breaths.

...

「Three days later, thousands of miles away」

Behind a large reef, a sharp light glinted in Qin Xuan’s eyes. He gently caressed the lustrous silver White Tiger pattern on the magnificent Jade Tube in his palm, unable to put it down.

’That’s right. I was the one who killed Pan Qifeng.’

’The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, after all.’

From Pan Qifeng and Ge Xiuyuan, Qin Xuan had looted a total of twelve silvery-white Talismans, each engraved with the likeness of a White Tiger.

"The Divination was reliable after all. That Seventh-Grade Opportunity was the White Tiger Divine Talisman inheritance within this!"

Qin Xuan had originally thought that the White Tiger Divine Talisman referred to a single, specific Talisman.

Only after obtaining this inheritance did he discover that the so-called White Tiger Divine Talisman was actually a general term for a large category of Talismans that could augment one’s physical strength.

The reason it was a Seventh-Grade Opportunity was because the inheritance was incomplete, and the material of the Jade Tube was unable to withstand the immense power of the full transmission.

The true, complete version of the White Tiger Divine Talisman has no side effects, consists of six types, and each type can forcibly elevate one’s physical realm!

But this incomplete version of the inheritance not only had side effects, but also contained the creation methods for only three of the Four Symbols Sect’s White Tiger Divine Talismans.

They were the Golden Body Tiger Talisman, the Barbaric Power Tiger Talisman, and the Frenzy Tiger Talisman!

’These Four Symbols Divine Talismans are so similar to my Holy Sect’s Blood Rune Sword Patterns. Why do I get the feeling they share a common origin...’

Qin Xuan was lost in thought.

When he infused his Divine Sense into it, he could see the stars of the western celestial dome blazing brilliantly, forming a majestic, lifelike, silvery-white giant tiger that roared and bellowed.

And far away, to the due south, the stars were dim. He could faintly make out a five-colored fire phoenix, poised to take flight as if answering the tiger’s call.

It didn’t take long for Qin Xuan to understand.

This was the fabled resonance between the Divine Talismans’ Qi Mechanisms.

"This Golden Body Tiger Talisman... its power is roughly equivalent to my Holy Sect’s Blood Evil Level Sword Patterns."

But you have to go to the Blood Pool Sword Tomb for Blood Rune Sword Patterns, whereas these White Tiger Divine Talismans can be crafted nonstop—they can even be sold!

Qin Xuan looked at the silvery-white Talisman in his hand, engraved with the likeness of a White Tiger Rune, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

’I’ve really hit the jackpot this time.’

There were twelve Silver White Tiger God Talismans in total.

Five of them were Golden Body Tiger Talismans, which could enhance physical defense by a major realm, and four were Barbaric Power Tiger Talismans, which increased physical strength by a major realm.

And three Frenzy Tiger Talismans that could simultaneously enhance defense and strength by one hundred percent!

As long as the user’s body was resilient enough to withstand the intense backlash after using a Tiger Talisman, the three different types of Tiger Talismans could even be stacked simultaneously.

Previously, after using a Golden Body Tiger Talisman to enhance his physical defense, Ge Xiuyuan had stacked a Barbaric Power Tiger Talisman on top of it to increase his physical strength.

This caused his physical strength to surge across a major realm in a short period of time, rocketing from Qi Cultivation Peak to Foundation Establishment Peak.

Relying on physical strength alone, he had brutally hammered the Blood Centipede Daoist and the Seven Injuries Child to death.

’In that case, there are merits to being a Body Refinement brute after all.’

’That feeling of fists connecting with flesh... it looks so damn satisfying.’

Qin Xuan even wondered if he should seek out a Body Refining Technique to pair with these White Tiger Divine Talismans.

After all, the vast majority of the Human Race’s Cultivation Techniques focused on Divine Techniques, unlike the Demon Race, who put great emphasis on Body Refinement.

Under extreme conditions, if a Qi Cultivation Peak Cultivator who had never practiced Body Refinement could stack a Golden Body Tiger Talisman, a Barbaric Power Tiger Talisman, and a Frenzy Tiger Talisman, their physical strength alone wouldn’t be inferior to a Foundation Establishment Great Demon’s!

Of course, the terrifying power bestowed by three stacked Tiger Talismans would cause any Qi Cultivation Cultivator who hadn’t undergone Body Refinement to instantly explode.

’No wonder the Four Symbols Sect’s Fire Phoenix Talisman and Black Tortoise God Talisman suddenly went missing...’

Qin Xuan sighed to himself, ’If I were the Emperor of Daqian, I’d also see the complete Celestial Mountain Four Symbols Sect as a thorn in my side!’

The White Tiger Divine Talisman inheritance alone was this powerful.

It was hard to imagine the former glory of the Celestial Mountain Four Symbols Sect, back when it possessed all four complete Talismans: the Dragon, Phoenix, Tiger, and Turtle.

The Tiger Talisman enhanced the flesh body, the Dragon Talisman enhanced Divine Sense, the Turtle Talisman provided invincible defense, and the Phoenix Talisman allowed one to be reborn from flames.

Damn, a Venerable Divinity Transformation, in theory, could even go toe-to-toe with a Returning Void Dao Venerable!

Aside from the loot related to the Celestial Mountain Four Symbols Sect, there wasn’t much else of value on the Blood Centipede Daoist or the Seven Injuries Child.

However, Qin Xuan managed to capture their souls before they could dissipate.

Through Soul Search, he learned many secrets of the Gu Race.

He learned that the Southern Border Gu Race was categorized into seven "Turns," from one to seven, based on the maximum growth potential of their Gu Insects.

These were the First-Turn Power Gu, Second-Turn Speed Gu, Third-Turn Poison Gu, Fourth-Turn Soul Gu, Fifth-Turn Curse Gu, Sixth-Turn Dream Gu, and finally, the Seventh-Turn Life Gu!

There wasn’t a huge distinction between the first three Turns.

But the Gu Insects from the remaining four Turns were each more heaven-defying than the last.

Grandma Jade Spider, the Human Dao Foundation Establishment Fifth Level cultivator Qin Xuan had met before, belonged to the Power Gu Race, as did the White Jade Spider she controlled.

Their Gu Insects were the weakest.

However, that Mysterious Blue Jade Order seemed to be able to command First-Turn Gu Insects, so Qin Xuan had carefully stored it away.

The Blood Centipede Daoist and Seven Injuries Child that Ge Xiuyuan had slain also belonged to the First-Turn Power Gu Race. Although their cultivation was high, their status was even lower than Grandma Jade Spider’s.

According to their memories, the Third-Turn Poison Gu clan had dispatched an Earth Dao Foundation Establishment Eighth Level Gu Cultivator for this Foundation Establishment Chaos War.

The Blood Centipede Daoist had once personally seen him poison an entire city.

When it came to the might of Gu poison, he was in no way inferior to Wei Qingyi of the Punishment Altar.

’The East Sea Demon Race, the Southern Border Gu Race, and the Daqian Dynasty, which is covetously eyeing the Blood Demon Sword Sect...’
