Chapter 259 Banquet at Hongmen
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56In that night, Ning Tao tried more than one dozen different rune combinations, but not one of them succeeded. The plucking talisman with the erroneous rune was a mere coincidence. One could almost say its error was one in a million—like that rotten apple which happened to fall on Newton's head.
After busying himself for a night, Ning Tao came to a conclusion.
A scrambled rune combination turning into a usable paper talisman—the likelihood was even slimmer than hitting jackpot at a lottery center. To come up with the correct rune combination like this would be like hitting a medium-sized jackpot. It would be a small repayment from Sky Clinic for fleecing him so much treatment fees.
Ning Tao threw all the useless paper talismans into the delicate perfumed tripod. He wanted to turn them into paper mash, for recycling into medium paper.
"Doctor Ning, are you there?" An immature-sounding voice rang out from outside the door.

The lazy sunshine in the afternoon showered down. There were lots of vehicles arriving and departing Baoshan Airport. It was a busy sight. Lin Qingyu entered the pick-up hall and cast her lovely eyes around. She was trying to locate that face she had missed so much in the crowds. "Qingyu, over here." In the crowds, Ning Tao waved at Lin Qingyu. Lin Qingyu saw Ning Tao and walked swiftly to him. There seemed to be many things she liked to tell him in her heart. But the moment she came to him, she found herself dumbstricken. She could only stare at him with an aggrieved look in her eyes. There was also a joyous affection in this reunion. Her emotions were very complex. Ning Tao smiled at her. "Come, let me pull your luggage for you. My vehicle's parked in the carpark." Lin Qingyu nodded and followed Ning Tao silently. In the crowds, a blond man in dark sunglasses was holding up a pickup sign. But his e

"Is this where you are staying?" After entering the apartment, Lin Qingyu studied the living conditions of the rented rooms. Ning Tao said, "This place is far inferior to your hotel room. I have to inconvenience you for the night. Would that be a problem for you?" Lin Qingyu slightly jerked the corner of her mouth. "So to you, I'm only one of those rich, pampered and extravagant girls, right? I was a very independent girl when studying abroad. The room I rented then was very run-of-the-mill. There will be no problem for me staying here a year, let alone a night." Ning Tao smiled. "Very well then, you can sleep in my room tonight. I will sleep in the living room." "That won't do," Lin Qingyu said. Ning Tao said, "You're a guest. I can't let you sleep on the sofa, can I? Don't stand on ceremony. Let's agree on this: you sleep in my room." Only now did Lin Qingyu nod. She suddenly seemed to have remembe

There were two bedrooms in the presidential suite which Joanne had booked. One was the master bedroom and the other the second bedroom. There was also a living room, a bathroom and a conference room. Joanna had wanted Ning Tao to sleep in the master bedroom, but he insisted on sleeping in the second. Joanna had already helped him once and there was no way he would undermine his host. Joanna did not insist. She dragged her luggage into the master bedroom. Ning Tao also entered the second bedroom. He took up his cell phone and replied Bai Jing's message, "Just keep a watchful eye and do not act rashly." Bai Jing returned his text message, "When you next message, we will tear through the air like an arrow, coming to you with a mighty army." Since when had she become so cheeky? Ning Tao could not help but smile. After opening his photo file, he magnified a photo he had taken and studied it. He had taken the car license number, but

Joanna got up to open the door. The person who had pressed the doorbell was her black bodyguard. She also had a visitor— Tamao Takeda. "Miss Joanna, I would like to invite you to dinner. I don't know if you would be happy to accept my invitation." Tamao Takeda was speaking very politely. He was wearing a smile on his face, making one unable to reject him. But Joanna said, "Sorry, I'm having supper with my friend here." If it had been any other time, she would probably have accepted Tamao Takeda's invitation. After all, Tamao Takeda was a man of some importance. But right now her heart was thinking only of fruits like coconuts and papayas. She was in no mood to attend a banquet. Tamao Takeda's gaze stared beyond Joanna and landed on Ning Tao at the dining table. For a moment, his stare was cold and hard. But he still maintained that gentle, affectionate smile on his face. "I was wondering if Doctor Ning is around.
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 264 A Frog in a Well and a Large Silicon Chip
As he looked and smelt, Ning Tao discovered Zhu Hongqin had been hexed by the Viper-like Insect. He was not at all surprised by this finding. Bai Sheng did not even spare adolescents like Wu Xiaolin and Liu Xian'er, so why would he leave Zhu Hongqin alone? Bai Sheng had once abducted Zhu Hongqin and then released her. If Ning Tao had not found her hexed, it would be surprising. Actually, it was Bai Jing's experience which had benefited Ning Tao. On top of that, his spiritual power had greatly increased due to his cultivation. His body was in an equilibrium between good and evil. If not for his earlier experience, he would find it hard to detect the Viper-like Insect lurking in a human body. Then, Ning Tao's sight landed on the senior engineer, Hanks, from Gerton Company. He could sense a demon aura emanating from his body. Although it was not strong, it was clearly there. Ning Tao's heart started to ask himself, "Gerton Company is a world re
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 265 A Vanishing Act
When Ning Tao stripped Hanks of his clothes using the erroneous plucking talisman, he knew that someone would ask to see his "large smart chip." Lin Qingyu was asking to see it now. Joanna would surely ask too. Ning Tao inched to Lin Qingyu's ear. "It's very dangerous to remain here. Your next-door neighbor..." Lin Qingyu suddenly stretched her hand into Ning Tao's trouser pocket. Ning Tao pressed down her hand and asked awkwardly, "What are you doing?" Lin Qingyu was still forcefully reaching into his pocket. As she did that, she said, "You're hurting me." Ning Tao immediately released his hand. Her one sentence had made him feel bad. There was no longer any resistance holding back Lin Qingyu's hand. She easily reached into his trouser pocket and fished out a crumpled piece of medium paper. As she studied the creased paper talisman, her reaction was the same as Hanks's. She cried in astonishment, "Y

The sound of water running came from Joanna's room. She seemed to be showering. After coming out from his room, Ning Tao walked through the corridor with the small medicine chest in his hand. He arrived in the living room, sat on the sofa and turned on the television. A news program was showing on the television. Ning Tao did not actually want to watch the television, but had only wanted to make some noise to notify Joanna that he had returned. However, it just so happened that the channel was the Guan City Network, and the program was about the Asian Technological Forum which would be opening tomorrow. He was instantly interested and intentionally increased the volume. On the television was a prim and elegant anchorwoman wearing a proud expression and speaking confidently, "Our city's esteemed entrepreneur, the founder of New World Technology, Mr. Bai Sheng had demonstrated their company's latest technological research outcome during the op
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 267 Bluetooth Connection Established, Medical Skills Upgraded
After charging with spiritual power, the condition of Joanna's body had streamed into Ning Tao's consciousness again. It was like there was a Bluetooth connection between him and the plucking talisman. Joanna's body became the sender of the information while his brain was the receiving device. The first plucking talisman had removed all the germs and toxins from Joanna's body. Even her level of apolipoproteins had returned to normal. That would mean that this particular talisman would have nothing left to pull, apart from her breast. "Ba Mi Ne Chi En..." Ning Tao recited the spell on the plucking talisman, as he was thinking to himself inside. "Logically speaking, I should be able to control the plucking talisman. Otherwise, it would be meaningless as a talisman." Paper talismans should be under the complete command of its user. For example, the legendary Body Tracking Talisman, if it could not obey the command to track down the target, and

The redclothed Dan Ling flickered lightly, brushing against Ning Tao's open arm and dodging, her silver belllike laughter echoing in the empty temple space."Hee hee ...... hee hee ......"Ning Tao turned around and pounced, his movements were fast and his posture was handsome. After all, pouncing on women like this is something he is very good at, there are three objects practicing this divine skill at home, and most of the time, they can't do it without practicing, they will be forced to practice.However, even the most skillful female pouncing divine power, he also played to the extreme, the red Dan Ling is also much faster than him, saw that he was about to hold her waist, but she gently swayed and dodged again."You come ...... you come ...... hee hee ......"Your sister!Ning Tao pounced again.The redclothed danling dodged while molesting the man who tried to grab her, "You do it, you do it ......"Ning Tao pounced again and aga

Two people rolling on the ground, that posture unbearable, not at all like two people in the fight, but like a pair of horny couples reunited for a long time ......Although he didn't have a real flesh and blood body, but the feeling of spiritual awareness was even stronger than a flesh and blood body, being hugged by a female ghost and rolled around on the ground, how complicated and weird Ning Tao's feeling at this moment could be imagined."Seeds! Give me ...... seeds!" Nepona's voice trembled terribly.Ning Tao made a strong effort to press against Nepona's chest, embarrassed and nervous "Calm down a little ...... What seed?""Give me seeds ...... seeds!" Nepona repeated this sentence over and over again, desperately moving towards Ning Tao's body.On her this action, Ning Tao do not want to distort all want to distort, as a man he does not blossom nor fruit, to say that the seed is only a kind of son, but that thing is to be able to just give?

However, it was this grab that made Ning Tao instantly froze on the spot.For, instead of a mere visible phantom, he grabbed a real arm. He could feel the warmth of that arm and the elastic skin, but ......Instead, his hand penetrated past Nebonna's arm, as if the genjutsu was out of the body trying to grab something, feeling it, but not being able to grab it at all.Nepona was real, and he seemed to be just a phantom!But he was clearly real, he could feel the blood flowing through his veins, and he could feel his heartbeat, and his chest expanded with every breath he took, all of these were manifestations of flesh and blood, but he just didn't exist in this past time and space.Hard to explain!"Lost Undead, who are you?" Nepona suddenly spoke.She was still using that ancient and mysterious language, which was simply unintelligible, but through the Whisperer's conversion, Ning Tao was able to hear it clearly.Ning Tao's hand sudden
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 615 Complete Ancestor Seeking Pill
Things were piled up under the locked walls of the Heaven's Path Medical Center, spirit materials, weapons, and that peculiar cauldron for alchemy from Nicholas Conti, among other things.Ning Tao organized and categorized the spiritual materials that he needed to use, and those modified weapons were also categorized and collected properly. He couldn't use these weapons, but he could refine them and give them to a few fish demons. With these cultivated firearms weapons with added technological components, they were like a tiger with wings. Even Soft Tianyin, who couldn't fight, she could fight with her magic firearms.As for the tripod Ning Tao didn't have the heart to study it and casually threw it in the corner. He then began to process the medicinal materials and prepare for alchemy.After planning for such a long time and not being able to gather the spirit materials for the Ancestor Seeking Pill until now, how could he resist the urge to refine the full versio

As night descended, a door of convenience opened, and Ning Tao stepped out of the dark as ink hole."My Lord." Ramsey followed, rising from the couch and calling out respectfully.Ning Tao said, "Is all the information on the person you mentioned ready?"Ramsey picked up the dossier bag placed on the coffee table and handed it to Ning Tao.Ning Tao opened the information bag and took out the information inside to check.Ramsey said, "My Lord, all the information I could get on Saric is in there."Ning Tao said while looking at it, "Will he stay at Black Sail Mansion tonight?"Ramsey said, "He is going out tonight to refill his food and will not remain in the midst of the Black Sail Mansion. My Lord, inside the dossier bag is a map that I handdrew, so you can take a look at it, and I've marked out a safer route for you."Ning Tao quickly flipped to see the handdrawn map that Ramsey had mentioned, and there was indeed a labeled route on

Ning Tao turned back, the person who called him was a white man, and there were two two companions, a black man and a Mexican descendant, all of them were not very old, roughly between thirty and forty.The Heavenly Character version of the Yin Valley Spirit Suppressing Talisman closed off all the aura related to cultivation, and also sealed the spiritual power, so Ning Tao was unable to awaken his eye's Look state to recognize the good and evil of these three people, and he was also unable to detect whether there were any weapons hidden on their bodies through his nose's Smell state. A Heavenly Character version of the Yin Valley Spirit Suppressing Talisman had turned him into an ordinary person, so when he was suddenly called out, he reacted with a bit of bewilderment and was very uncomfortable with this state of being an ordinary person.This was also one of the reasons why he transformed out to move around, he was going to enter a place like the Blackfire Corporation
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 612 Before the Action
The darkness disappeared, and Ning Tao was already in a room when he reappeared.It was a very spartan room, not even a single piece of decent furniture or appliance, and the couch and bed in use were worn out. There were also no windows in the room, and you couldn't see outside, so there was no way to tell what kind of place this was. The only thing that could be confirmed was that this was a basement.Ramsey was sitting on a worn out sofa watching a news program, when the door of convenience opened he was startled and had an instinctive dodge reaction until he saw Ning Tao conveniently walk out of the door, then he breathed a sigh of relief.Ramsey bowed his head and called out respectfully, "My Lord."Ning Tao nodded his head a bit, also in this little bit of time he completed his reconnaissance against this environment, there was no third party in this basement other than Ramsey, and he let his guard down, "Ramsey, what is this place?"Ramsey said,

One day later.Southern sea, undersea Dragon Tomb.Under the beam of the Refined Tactical Flashlight, the huge dragon bone was presented in the dark blue sea water. It was so quiet that there wasn't even a single sound of breathing, nor was there any life present, except for Ning Tao.Ning Tao came to the skull of the True Dragon Skeleton, bent his legs and knelt down on the cold rock, and paid three obeisances before saying, "True Dragon Senior, senior here, I have come to beg for a Dragon Bone to refine the legendary Palm Pistol. I know this request is excessive, but I only know that there are dragon bones here, so I can only come to beg you. I promise you that when I use senior's dragon bone to refine the gun in the palm, I will treasure it as if it were my life, and in the future, I will definitely bring it with me to do something in the Immortal Realm. If senior agrees, then he will drop a dragon bone down himself. If it's a default, I'll come and get it mysel

The night was late and the quadrangle was quiet.A Door of Convenience opened, and before Ning Tao even came out of the Door of Convenience, Qing Zhui opened her eyes. When Ning Tao had just come out of the Door of Convenience, she had already jumped into Ning Tao's arms from her bare feet.She didn't ask Ning Tao what he had gone through, she just got tired of being in his arms. At this moment, she was not a scaly dragon, she was just a clingy folded ear cat.Ning Tao gently wrapped his arms around her and whispered in her ear, "I'll give you a gift."Qing Zhui curiously said, "What kind of gift?"Ning Tao let go of Qing Zhui and took out that Yin Valley Spirit Suppressing Talisman, handing it to Qing Zhui, "This is Tang Zixian's Yin Valley Spirit Suppressing Talisman, I managed to get my hands on it with great difficulty, try it."Qing Zhui said in surprise, "Try it here? Will it demolish the house?"Ning Tao came to her ear and said to he
