Chapter 263 An Inspiration from the Plucking Talisman
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.

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
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 266 The Power of the Authentic Plucking Talisman
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
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 268 We're Not Familiar
Ning Tao retrieved the ledger of bamboo slips and placed it in the hand of the black armed man. He retrieved it after a few seconds. A diagnosis appeared on the ledger of bamboo slips: "Louis, born in 1998. A person of evil. The first sin is being unfilial to his parents, amounting to 10 points of the sin of evil intention. The second sin is killing 17 people, amounting to 119 points of sin of evil intention. The third is harming others... All amounting to 151 points of the sin of evil intention. He could get a prescription pact for the sin of evil intention and atone for his sins with his life." Foreigners did not use the Lunar calendar; thus the ledger of bamboo slips did not provide any date of birth in the traditional format. That was all the difference there was. Following, Ning Tao got up to the table and drafted a prescription pact of the sin of evil intention. He took the prescription pact and a pen, along with a medicine containing
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 269 A Text Hard to Read
When Ning Tao returned to Joanna's presidential suite, Qing Zhui and Bai Jing were sitting in the living room watching television. Joanna's bodyguard had been carelessly thrown across the carpet, and had yet woken up. It was in fact very dangerous to be unconscious under the state of anesthesia, but the snake demon sisters obviously did not care about the life of the black buddy, as they continued watching the animation on television gleefully. It turned out that they were actually watching the Calabash Brothers battling the snake demon. Ning Tao approached speechlessly. "Brother Ning, you're done?" Qing Zhui got up and walked towards him, appearing to be really happy. Ning Tao nodded his head. "Just let me deal with such things the next time, so you all would commit fewer sins." Bai Jing was still immersed in the animation and ranting, irritated, "How could they make it this way? Isn't it misleading children? Are
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 270 I am Your Dad
Early in the morning, there was a stir of exciting commotion at the venue of the Asian Science Technological Forum, thanks to a microchip—more advanced, it was said, than even Gerton Company's Scaled Dragon 845 Microchip. Many cell phone manufacturers had hurried here because of the news. There were also many reporters and famous personages from all over the world. It would not be an exaggeration to call it a world sensation. After all, the fervor over this chip was not over yet—it was still raging thanks to the timing of this forum. Ning Tao must be the only one still sober at the forum. He did not believe Bai Sheng could come up with any advanced microchip. What he could not understand was this: if the microchip had come from Hanks in America, it could likely be manufactured by Gerton Company. What sinister scheme were they hatching now? One after another, all the guests had trod on the red carpet and taken out their invitation cards to register. Report
A Mortal's Journey to Immortality Chapter 271 A Snake Spirit with Dissociative Identity Disorder
But Ning Tao's finger on the trigger did not pull. If he were to kill Bai Sheng here, he would be the sensation of the world—a clinic doctor killing a genius who had just come up with the Divine Microchip. What followed would be a manhunt from all quarters. He could never roam the streets again like he did in the past, or even develop the Shenzhou Charity Company to earn merits of good intention. Even if he escaped arrest, he would surely die because of the lack of treatment fees. But when he thought of those girls who were hideously slew, and Bai Sheng's coercion of Qing Zhui and Bai Jing, he felt an irrepressible rage arise in his heart. Facing this wicked fiend, his malicious side had surfaced and it would be hard for him to control it. This was the reason why he pulled out this refined Mauser pistol. " 'I rest within the womb, listening to the sound of the Way.' " Ning Tao's heart quietly chanted the first line of Your Text.
