Chapter 368: Waking Up

“Ye Jian, I got you a Golden Immortal-level attack talisman. Try using it to attack that barrier.”

In the system space, Liu Hongxia initiated a trade with Ye Jian.

Upon hearing about the Golden Immortal-level attack talisman, Ye Jian was shocked.

“Hongxia, this Golden Immortal-level attack talisman won’t blow up the entire planet, will it?” Ye Jian quickly asked Liu Hongxia.

Liu Hongxia was momentarily stunned by Ye Jian’s words.

Indeed, the power of the Golden Immortal Realm could easily explode a planet.

Liu Hongxia obtained the Golden Immortal-level attack talisman for Ye Jian mainly because Ye Jian had mentioned that even the Heavenly Immortal-level attack talismans couldn’t harm the barrier at all.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Hongxia said to Ye Jian, “I’ll trade you a True Immortal-level attack and defense talisman first. Try those, and if they don’t work, then we can go for the Profound Immortal-level talismans.”

With that, Liu Hongxia replaced the Golden Immortal-level talisman with the True Immortal-level talisman and sent it over.

This time, Ye Jian accepted the talismans.

The Golden Immortal-level talisman was several levels above the Heavenly Immortal-level, so she was afraid to use it directly.

If things went wrong, the entire barren prison could be wiped out.

After trading for the two talismans, Ye Jian quickly used the True Immortal-level defense talisman.

Then she took out the True Immortal-level attack talisman and chose to activate it.

The reason she used the defense talisman first was that she feared the repercussions of the True Immortal-level attack talisman would harm herself.

As Ye Jian activated the True Immortal-level talisman, a powerful sword energy swiftly shot out from the talisman and attacked the barrier where the colorful fragments were located.

The True Immortal-level attack flickered and instantly struck the colorful fragment’s barrier.

However, to Ye Jian’s astonishment, this sword energy attack, just like the previous ones, failed to create any ripple in the protective barrier around the colorful fragments.

In fact, the True Immortal-level attack’s sword energy was directly swallowed by the colorful barrier, without causing a single ripple.

“This…”

Seeing this, Ye Jian hesitated and could only seek help from Liu Hongxia again.

“Hongxia, the True Immortal-level attack talisman couldn’t do anything to the barrier protecting the colorful fragments,” Ye Jian said to Liu Hongxia.

Upon hearing Ye Jian’s words, Liu Hongxia quickly asked, “Did it have no effect at all?”

“None. There wasn’t even a ripple. The colorful barrier directly absorbed the sword energy of the True Immortal-level talisman,” Ye Jian replied, feeling a bit awkward.

This outcome essentially wasted one of Liu Hongxia’s attack talismans.

Hearing Ye Jian’s words, Liu Hongxia started to doubt.

“Ye Jian, you wouldn’t be lying to me about the talisman, would you?”

Although she could communicate with Ye Jian, she couldn’t see what was happening on Ye Jian’s side. If Ye Jian was deceiving her just to get the powerful talismans she possessed, it wasn’t impossible.

“Hongxia, I’m not lying! I swear by my heart vow. If I’m lying, may I be struck dead by lightning tribulation,” Ye Jian hurriedly swore to Liu Hongxia.

Upon hearing Ye Jian’s oath, Liu Hongxia furrowed her brow and ultimately chose to believe her.

After all, she had sworn by her heart vow and the lightning tribulation.

“I will trade you a Golden Immortal-level attack talisman directly. You can try it with the Golden Immortal-level talisman, but I don’t have a Golden Immortal-level defense talisman, so I can only give you a Profound Immortal-level defense talisman,” Liu Hongxia said to Ye Jian.

“Okay!” Ye Jian agreed without hesitation.

She had already used many talismans, and she had invested too much to give up now.

As for Liu Hongxia not providing a Profound Immortal-level attack talisman, Ye Jian didn’t say much; after all, the True Immortal-level attack talisman had not caused even a ripple on the barrier of the colorful fragments, so the Profound Immortal-level attack talisman might not be able to do anything to it either.

After receiving the talismans from Liu Hongxia’s trade, Ye Jian immediately activated the Profound Immortal-level defense talisman.

In the face of the Golden Immortal-level attack talisman, she needed to ensure her safety.

If the Golden Immortal-level attack talisman could truly break the barrier, there would surely be a strong explosion.

Without strong protection, being so close would likely leave her unable to withstand even the aftershocks of the explosion.

After activating the Profound Immortal-level defense talisman, Ye Jian took out the Golden Immortal-level attack talisman and activated it.

Fortunately, the immortal-level talismans had some immortal essence left by Liu Hongxia, so she only needed to draw on that power. Otherwise, as just a Transformation stage cultivator, she wouldn’t be able to activate an immortal-level talisman.

Whoosh!

As Ye Jian activated the Golden Immortal-level attack talisman, a blazing rocket shot toward the barrier of the colorful fragments.

In an instant, the incredibly hot rocket fiercely struck the barrier.

However, what happened next left Ye Jian once again stunned.

The rocket attack activated by the Golden Immortal-level attack talisman was once again swallowed by the barrier of the colorful fragments, without causing even a ripple.

Seeing this, Ye Jian felt her scalp tingle with dread.

How could she explain this to Liu Hongxia, the big shot?

Should she tell Liu Hongxia that even the Golden Immortal-level attack talisman couldn’t handle the barrier of the colorful fragments?

Would Liu Hongxia believe her? Would she think Ye Jian was keeping the colorful fragments for herself and didn’t want to share the benefits?

In Liu Hongxia’s view, that was a Golden Immortal-level attack talisman! How could it fail to make even a ripple on the barrier of the colorful fragments?

In the molten core of the planet, Ye Jian just stared at the barrier of the colorful fragments, remaining motionless for a long time.

She truly didn’t know how to explain this to Liu Hongxia.

After a while, Liu Hongxia took the initiative to text her, asking, “Ye Jian, how’s it going?”

“Hongxia, you might not believe this, but the attack from the Golden Immortal-level attack talisman had no effect on the barrier of the colorful fragments…” Ye Jian gritted her teeth and explained to Liu Hongxia.

“Impossible! How could a Golden Immortal-level attack talisman not break the treasure barrier of the lower realm?”

Liu Hongxia could hardly believe what Ye Jian was saying.

“Ye Jian, you wouldn’t be lying to me, would you? Did you swallow the treasure for yourself?” Liu Hongxia asked coldly.

If Ye Jian truly did that, Liu Hongxia would have to consider using her administrator powers.

“Hongxia, I’m not lying! If I’m lying, may the heavenly tribulation strike me dead…” Ye Jian could only swear again.

…

At that moment, in a vast system space, a head opened its eyes.

“Has thirty thousand years passed?”

“No, wait, why am I still hurt?”

Li Xiaojun opened his eyes, believing that thirty thousand years had gone by, but he found that his injuries seemed to be unchanged.

“System, what’s going on? How long have I been asleep?” Li Xiaojun quickly asked the system.

[System Notification: Host, you have only been asleep for several decades. The reason we woke you up is that your descendant Ye Jian discovered the Creation Jade Plate fragments. Please proceed to collect them.]

“The Creation Jade Plate fragments?”

Li Xiaojun finally understood why the system had awakened him; it was because the Creation Jade Plate fragments had been discovered.
