The sudden shout startled Chen Long, who was looking down at the hurried throngs of District 13 personnel. He patted his chest and gasped for breath.

Turning his head, he saw a familiar figure—Xiaoyu, standing beside him, waving and smiling at him and Jiang Liu.

"How come you... never mind, I'm used to it." Chen Long wanted to ask, but thinking about Xiao Yu's "mysterious appearances and disappearances" over the past year, he had become somewhat "numb."

"Xiaoyu, how did you get here?"

Chen Long is used to it.

But Duanmu Ying was shocked.

Lu Jin was also somewhat bewildered.

Keep in mind that Old Man's Antique Shop is about 20 miles away from District 13!

If Xiaoyu were a cultivator, it would be somewhat understandable.

But she hasn't even opened up the Small Heavenly Circuit!

Even though she ran out of the antique shop after they left and successfully hailed a taxi, they had only just gotten out of the phone booth—

Is there some other way to get down here?

"Take the stairs." X2

Besides Xiaoyu, Jiang Liu was also among those who spoke.

He continued, "I noticed when Xiaoyu sneaked out of the antique shop. She took a blue taxi and followed us closely. And the entrance to District 13 wasn't just this phone booth. There was a staircase inside the building where the phone booth was located that led directly here, and she just slid down it."

Xiaoyu: "???"

# Chapter 801 The Principles of Talisman Effects

How do you know so much?

Xiaoyu blinked, realizing for the first time that someone knew about her "climbing the stairs".

"Of course it was 'observed'."

Mental scanning, in essence, is just an ability to collect information. Ultimately, it still requires the primordial spirit and brain to process the information and transform it into images that conform to human cognition.

After cultivating inner insight and the ability to perceive the sounds of the world, one gains a discerning eye, undergoes a spiritual transformation, and can observe the entire world with a single thought, collecting all the information one desires and presenting it holistically within the primordial spirit's brain.

Especially in a world where a weekly weather bureau exists, Jiang Liu found that as long as he focused his attention, searching for the information he wanted to know was quite simple.

If using this ability in the main timeline of "Under One Person" is like using a calculator, then using the Insightful Eye in this Zhou Tian realm is like using a computer. Simply open a website, enter keywords, and not only will relevant content pop up, but the computer itself will also actively process and organize the searched information and present it completely within his primordial spirit.

"Cool~"

Xiaoyu exclaimed, "You can use the entire Earth as a computer?"

"There are also things that can't be found, such as the origins of the Eight Great Demons... which are locked with a combination lock." Jiang Liu said thoughtfully.

His keen eyes allowed him to perceive all information in the world, but information related to the eight great demons was coded.

Apart from what they had done in the past, their origins have been kept secret.

of course.

The password is related to the I Ching and can be completely cracked, but it will take some time...

"Chen Long, you've arrived!"

At this moment, Blake walked over, followed by the guards who brought Valon, Rasu, Afen, and Zhou together. "The Black Hand Gang has been captured, but the three henchmen from the G Society have already escaped with most of the talismans."

"Damn it!"

Chen Long rubbed his forehead and asked again, "How many talismans do we have left?"

“Three: one is a dragon, one is a rat, and the other is a horse.” Blake took out three octagonal talismans from his pocket, each engraved with a dragon, a rat, and a horse.

"They look like three ordinary handicrafts, but I can sense the strange power contained within them: a dragon-shaped flame, a horse-shaped energy, and a rat that moves like a heart that never stops?"

Lu Jin trembled, and exclaimed in shock, "To imprison such powerful energy within three small stones?"

"Why didn't I feel anything?" Duanmu Ying stared wide-eyed at the three talismans, but only felt that they were three pieces of handicrafts.

"Once you have completely established your lungs as the central palace and mastered the Eight or Nine Mysterious Techniques, you will be able to sense something."

Jiang Liu said something, then asked Blake, "Sheriff, may I take a look at the talisman?"

"of course can."

Sheriff Black glanced at Chen Long, smiled, and handed the talisman to Jiang Liu. Then, he led his men to escort Valon and the others to the prison.

Jiang Liu took the three talismans and carefully sensed them, a hint of surprise showing in his eyes.

The power source of each talisman is a primordial Qi, imprisoned within the talisman, circulating within it according to its own form, neither increasing nor decreasing.

To use a talisman, any being that evolved from primordial Qi can come into contact with the talisman, causing their own primordial Qi to spontaneously connect with the talisman, thus making the talisman an "external organ" of themselves.

Furthermore, talismans can spontaneously connect with heaven and earth—assuming the cost of using a talisman is 100, then 99.99% of that cost comes from the Zhou Qi Qi Ju (a system of natural forces), meaning that the power of heaven and earth is used as one's own energy source.

The remaining 0.01% comes from the holders.

Holding or pinching the talisman for too long can make your hand sore.

"Did you sense anything?"

Seeing that Jiang Liu's brows had been slightly furrowed but were now relaxed, Xiao Yu blinked and asked, "Would you like me to demonstrate the magic of the talisman to you?"

"no need!"

Chen Long sternly reprimanded, "Talismans are extremely dangerous magical items, not for you to play with."

"I roughly understand the existence of these three talismans." Jiang Liu handed the talismans to Chen Long. "The horse talisman can ward off evil spirits and restore damaged things."

Rats can be given life and can create a corresponding energy cycle system for inanimate objects. When connected to the heavens and earth, they can also imbue inanimate objects with information. However, since the energy cycle system is not in the same dimension as the real space, although it can turn stillness into movement, it cannot change the nature of inanimate objects.

The Last Dragon—

It should be the source of the Holy Lord's original power, and it's not just for breathing fire; its essence is 'burning.' Theoretically, possessing this talisman will allow the power of the other talismans to gradually evolve over time.

"Valon..."

Chen Long was shocked to hear Jiang Liu immediately explain the function of the three talismans, but when he heard Jiang Liu's description of the Dragon Talisman, he thought of Valon.

The leader of that Black Hand gang had used the Dragon Talisman, and unlike others, he had it embedded in his palm, allowing him to float briefly. Moreover, his power and speed were enhanced to a level that surpassed human limits—it's quite fitting to say that the Dragon Talisman is the source of the Holy Force's power!

But Duanmu Ying's focus was on the horse talisman. She asked in surprise, "Jiang Liu, are you saying that the horse talisman has the power to ward off evil spirits, repair injuries, and cure all diseases?"

Her goal in spiritual practice—to cure all diseases in the world—was solved by a simple talisman?

That's incredible!

"What's wrong? Is someone in your family sick?"

Xiaoyu's eyes lit up, and she said to Chen Long, "Uncle Long, let's go to another world and use the Horse Talisman to heal Sister Muying's family!"

"this!"

Chen Long was caught in a dilemma. He didn't want to go on an adventure to another world, but if Duanmu Ying's family really had some incurable disease, perhaps only a talisman could cure them.

"No, her family isn't sick. It's just that her cultivation goal was to cure all diseases in the world, but now she's surprised to find that her goal has been achieved by a stone, so she's a little flustered," Lu Jin joked with a chuckle.

"Boom!"

Duanmu Ying smacked Lu Jin on the head without any politeness and cursed fiercely, "Looking for a beating, huh? If you ever get an incurable disease in the future, I won't treat you."

"Wrong! Wrong!"

Lu Jin quickly apologized, not daring to truly offend this "young lady," lest she deliberately play a "prank" when cooperating with her research later.

That's really risking your life!

"Ah, what a pity, I can't go on an adventure in another world."

Xiaoyu looked disappointed, but she quickly cheered up and said to Jiang Liu, "While Dad is searching for the ancestral token of the immortal god, you can practice your performance with me!"

I must win first place in the school's performance competition.

"Boom!"

At that moment, the entire District 13 trembled.

Someone came out and shouted, "It's terrible! Valon has escaped from prison!"

# Chapter 802 Security in District 13 —

"Lu Jin, go and help me out."

Jiang Liu gave an order, and Lu Jin immediately darted out, stirring up a gust of wind, and in an instant found the cell where Walong and the others were being held.

The prison walls were blown open, and Valon and the others had long since disappeared. However, Lu Jin had focused on the liver and kidneys as the central palace, and had cultivated to the eighth or ninth level of profound mystery. His perception of airflow had also improved. Following the scent of Valon and the others left in the air, he immediately ran out of District 13, turning left and right. Just before Valon and his group were about to get into a taxi, he grabbed Valon by the collar and threw him into a nearby alley.

Seeing that things were not going well, the taxi driver stepped on the gas and drove away.

Ah Fen shouted, "Hey! Come back quickly!"

But to no avail.

"Alright, kid, now we'll teach you a lesson." Zhou pulled out a nunchaku from his waist, wielding it with impressive skill, and then—

Snapped!

Lu Jin slapped the guy across the face.

Zhou fell down.

Seeing this, Afen and Lasu surrounded Lu Jin from both sides, but before they could get close, they felt themselves bound by an invisible force and were then slammed hard next to Valon, who was still standing, and could no longer get up.

As ordinary people, Valon, Afen, Lasu, and Zhou were all quite good in Lu Jin's eyes, and he even vaguely sensed some Qi. But when facing him, they were like fireflies trying to compete with the bright moon. How could they possibly win?

"You bastard!"

Valon pulled out a pistol from his pocket, but his wrist was bound by a magnetic field and twisted backward.

click!

The sound of bones breaking rang out, causing Valon to drop his Desert Eagle to the ground, and he cried out in pain, "Ah! My hand!"
