Chapter 397
Long Chen couldnt help celebrating . What kind of treasure? Is it a cultivation technique or a Battle Skill?
Even his voice quivered slightly . If this was a cultivation technique or Battle Skill that had come from the immortal era, then wouldnt it be heaven-defying?
This pages name is the Ethereal Crafting Secret Record . Its a marvelous remnant of the immortal era . " Yue Xiaoqians eyes were filled with amazement as she looked at the golden page .
Hey, dont keep me in suspense . Is this Ethereal Crafting Secret Record a cultivation technique or Battle Skill? Long Chens eyes were practically glowing .
Yue Xiaoqian glanced at Long Chen . He could see that her gaze was filled with contempt for him . He was startled; what had he said wrong?
This Ethereal Crafting Secret Record isnt a cultivation technique or Battle Skill . It is a sacred canon on forging items . Yue Xiaoqian was filled with admiration for this page .
Forging? Are you messing with me? Long Chens expression became unsightly . Even this thing was considered a treasure? He really did feel messed with .
You! You really are unreasonable! raged Yue Xiaoqian . This Ethereal Crafting Secret Record contains all the countless techniques and arts of a Forging Master from the immortal era! Those kinds of skills have long since disappeared . Its value is inestimable! If the Ethereal Crafting Secret Record spread, then the entire world would go crazy . There would not be able a single power that would remain indifferent to it .
Its this valuable? Suddenly, Long Chen slapped his own leg . Isnt this precisely what that little brat Guo Ran needs right now? I actually forgot about him .
Previously, Long Chen had used the golden page to fight . Due to its incomparable sharpness, he had subconsciously assumed that whatever was recorded on it had to be related to battle . It seemed he had misunderstood .
I really cant bother to talk to you . Yue Xiaoqian felt like Long Chens intelligence really was no longer on the same level as her . Could such a priceless treasure be described as just valuable? That was practically blaspheme .
Come over here . Yue Xiaoqian beckoned coldly .
For what? Long Chens guard rose . Are you planning on hitting me?
That was because Yue Xiaoqian was now clearly a bit different than before . Long Chen felt more and more that this woman was dangerous .
Yue Xiaoqian, who had been angrily glaring, couldnt help laughing when she saw Long Chens doubtful and careful gaze .
Why would I hit you? Come over so I can transmit the immortal characters to you .
Although only a part of her face was revealed, seeing that mirth in Yue Xiaoqians eyes, Long Chen hastily steadied his mental state and approached .
Immortal characters are different from the characters of the current era . Each word contains its own artistic concept . When immortal characters are combined together, they form a continuous image . Such immortal characters cannot be transmitted through simple paper . It can only be carved onto spiritual material like soul gold essence . So the only way I can transmit the translated images to you is mentally . Dont move . Yue Xiaoqian extended her hand and placed it on Long Chens forehead .
At this time time, Long Chen was extremely close to her . He could smell her fragrance . He could feel her breath .
The most relaxing thing to him was when her hand touched his forehead . That kind of satiny feeling made him feel as if all his pores had opened .
You trust me this much? Yue Xiaoqian saw that Long Chen didnt have any defense towards her, even when her finger touched the space between his eyebrows .
At this distance, if Yue Xiaoqian wanted to, Long Chen definitely wouldnt be able to stop her from killing him .
Long Chen smiled slightly and didnt reply . Ever since he had started cultivating in the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, he no longer trusted his eyes . Instead, he trusted his intuition .
Up to this point, his intuition had never failed him once . He trusted that his intuition was able to differentiate good and evil far better than his eyesight .
Thank you . After softly saying that, Yue Xiaoqian closed her eyes . Spiritual Strength slowly poured from her finger into the space between Long Chens eyebrows .
As Yue Xiaoqians Spriritual Strength poured into his mind-sea, Long Chen began to see an image .
That image contained an elder who was constantly hammering something . That hammering posture and strength, as well as just the arc and course, all contained various variations . Long Chen truly was unable to see through the profundities behind this scene .
This scene began to move . A portion of the scene was forging, a portion of the scene was some marvelous blueprints, and there was also a portion containing the runes carved onto the items forged by this elder .
Buzzz
Suddenly, that elder thrust a sword he had just finished carving runes onto into the sky . It cut apart heaven and earth, revealing a sky full of stars .
Immortal characters?
Long Chen was shocked by this scene . He finally understood why Yue Xiaoqian had looked at him with such a gaze .
Previously, he had always been looking down on the Forging Dao . The understanding and learning required for forging items was far, far more profound than he had imagined .
After that sword from the image had been inscribed with runes, it seemed to come to life, possessing its own life aura . That attack had even contained its own specific will .
The images in his head faded . He heard Yue Xiaoqians voice, Use Spiritual Strength to seal these images in your head so that you wont forget them . If you dont, then when you try to examine them later, they will become chaotic and muddied .
Long Chen hastily used his Spiritual Strength to seal these images in his head . This was extremely simple for him, as some pill formulas also had to be remembered in this manner .
Thank you! This thing really is very cough, its great! Long Chen almost once more said it was just valuable .
Yue Xiaoqian shook her head, obviously having seen through what Long Chen had been thinking . After hesitating for a moment, she asked with great embarrassment, Long Chen, can I discuss something with you?
What? Long Chen said extremely straightforward .
This this Ethereal Crafting Secret Record, can I bring it back to give to my clan? Yue Xiaoqian asked with great apprehensiveness
Of course . Long Chen didnt understand .
Really? She was surprised and delighted .
Of course . Furthermore, youve already memorized the Ethereal Crafting Secret Record, so its not like I would know if you transmitted it to anyone, laughed Long Chen .
Yue Xiaoqians delight faded, replaced with solemness . Long Chen, although I might know whats contained in the Ethereal Crafting Secret Record, I definitely wouldnt tell anyone without your permission .
You dont have to be so serious .
Thats just my clans beliefs .
Ah, just stop . Im not suited to such solemn conversation . If it hadnt been for your help translating it, its not like I would have learned this secret either . So well split this secret up evenly . Based on our mutual contribution, well get mutual benefits, so lets stop that discussion here . Long Chen really didnt like this kind of solemn dialog, especially not with a beautiful woman .
Thank you Long Chen . To tell the truth, this Ethereal Crafting Secret Record might be able to rejuvenate my clan, so its extremely important . Really, thank you, said Yue Xiaoqian sincerely .
Dont be so courteous . Speaking of which, didnt you say that this golden page was made of soul gold essence?
Yes . There are few metals that can be controlled by the soul like this . As for this particular page, it was made of soul gold whose quality is extremely high .
Unfortunately, it hasnt been forged into anything, and there are no runes carved onto it, so it cant count as a soul item . Otherwise, a soul cultivator wielding such a high-grade soul item could easily kill cultivators of the same realm .
Even just as it is, it will still be able to release a certain amount of power if you used Spiritual Strength to control it . However, that power is limited .
Furthermore, if soul gold enters flesh, that will block its ability to sense soul energy . So its power against Magical Beasts is especially limited .
Not only that, but when you fight with other humans, because it is not a soul item and is essentially an ownerless item, it can easily be disturbed by other peoples Spiritual Strength, explained Yue Xiaoqian .
Long Chen was shocked by how learned Yue Xiaoqian was . She was practically a know-it-all . She was definitely one of those bookworm cultivators .
However, when fighting with people, if they are unprepared and you use it as a surprise attack, no one will be able to block it . Only something that has reached the level of a Xiantian weapon would be able to block being cut by soul gold . Yue Xiaoqian handed the golden page back to Long Chen .
Receiving the page, Long Chen was filled with admiration for her . Just this kind of learning was something that would make Long Chen prostrate himself towards her .
As for that Xiantian weapon she spoke of, those were the specialized weapons for Xiantian experts . They were able to bear Xiantian power, and capable of releasing a mountain-crushing power . However, only Xiantian experts had the qualifications to use them .
Up to this point, there had been nothing that had been able to stand up to the sharpness of this golden page . Of course, the flesh of Magical Beasts was an exception .
Lets continue onwards . It seems like there should still be other Two-Winged Devilman skeletons inside, which means more devil cores, suggested Long Chen .
Yue Xiaoqian gratefully said, These devil cores are very important to me, so thank you .
If it hadnt been for Long Chens golden page, she really wouldnt have been able to find any way to handle the Two-Winged Devilmans skeleton . Even if she managed to cut it down to just a head, there would have been no way for her to subdue it .
Now with Long Chens assistance, she didnt have to feel so vexed at being powerless .
After advancing thirty miles, they once more encountered a Two-Winged Devilmans skeleton .
This time the skeleton was complete, so it would definitely be more difficult to deal with than the previous one . Yue Xiaoqian couldnt help being a bit nervous .
Should we do it the same way as last time? she asked . But after she finished saying that, she saw that Long Chens expression was extremely odd as he looked at her . She asked, What is it?
Your battle experience and your knowledge are completely mismatched, so I really dont understand you . Long Chen shook his head .
You!
Dont misunderstand, I have no intention of looking down on you . I just feel like its a bit bizarre .
If you have a good method, then just say it . Dont curse people in a roundabout method . Yue Xiaoqian really was angry . Long Chens gaze was insulting .
Is this your first time going out for a tempering experience? asked Long Chen suddenly .
How did you know?
Oh .
Long Chen was a bit speechless . For her first adventure, she had ended up coming to a dangerous place like the Jiuli secret realm . He really had no idea what to say . It was no wonder her battle experience was practically zero .
Three thousand meters away from the skeleton, Long Chen used his Spiritual Strength to send the golden page flying towards the corpse .
Its useless . If we dont go over, it wouldnt disturb the Devilmans corpse, so the devil core wont pop out of its forehead . Your golden page isnt a true soul item, so theres no way it can cut through its skull like that . Its skull is even comparable to Xiantian weapons, whispered Yue Xiaoqian .
Long Chen ignored her . Once the golden page arrived in front of the Devilmans forehead, it began to rapidly spin like a pinwheel .
Long Chen then slowly approached . As he knew would happen, the skeleton suddenly moved when he reached a distance of fifteen hundred meters . The space between its eyebrows suddenly split open, revealing a crystalline core . At the same time, the skeleton began to stand up .
Slash!
With the power of his Spiritual Strength, the rapidly revolving golden page slashed onto the protruding devil core .
