Chapter 262 - Ancient Jade Slip

Lin Xuan unfolded his palm and looked at it carefully. It was about a foot long and an arm thick. On the surface, it looked like the root of the plant, but it was dark as ink and unusually smooth.

If it was another person, maybe they wouldn't have a clue, but Lin Xuan was far more knowledgeable than cultivators of the same level. After a slight pause, he was pleasantly surprised.

This was the jade slip of an ancient cultivator!

In the savage era of remote antiquity, the magical powers of ancient cultivators far exceeded that of now. Although it had been eclipsed in the endless years, there were still countless things that were passed down.

For example, ancient treasures!

Or in other words, spiritual talismans!

Although not a large number, it was often seen among high-level cultivators.

However, the jade slips of ancient times were obviously rare and precious, and it was far from being comparable to ordinary ancient treasures because it was very likely that it recorded an ancient cultivator's cultivation methods and magic spells.

Even with Lin Xuan's sturdy mentality, his face couldn't help but reveal a look of ecstasy. He never dreamt of finding such a good thing in the dwelling of an initial stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

He placed it in front of his eyes, and released his Spiritual Sense…

"Eh?

Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows and looked a little surprised. There was actually a layer of restriction in the jade slip.

Although not too complicated, it was enough to block the Spiritual Sense of a cultivator.

Lin Xuan stretched out his hands, clasped his index finger and thumb, and several Magic Spells shot out. He then re-injected his Spiritual Sense…

Moments later, Lin Xuan looked up and fondled with Jade slip in his hand, then carefully loaded it into the storage bag around his waist.

Different from what he originally imagined, it was not a powerful Cultivation Method, but a talisman-making technique.

Well, of course, it only focused slightly on the simple and basic Human Tier Talismans, and it mainly introduced the spiritual talismans of the Earth Tier.

Lin Xuan rested his chin on his hand and was lost in thought.

Earth Tier Spells were suitable for high-level cultivators at the Core Formation Stage and Nascent Soul Stage. It was extremely powerful, but its casting speed was slower than those at the Human Tier. It would be more valuable to make them into spiritual talismans.

However, the talismans at the Earth Tier were not only made of rare materials but also of some special Magic Arts. Because of the difference in the talisman-making techniques, their power can also vary

For example, using different techniques to seal the "Roaring Flame technique", the power it can exert ranges from fifty percent to one hundred and twenty percent of the Magic Spell's original power.

Although the methods of making Earth Tier Talismans were often available in the market. However, they were all of relatively inferior quality and were of little practical value.

The talisman-making technique of the ancient cultivator in the Jade slip was magical. It could increase the power of the talisman to one hundred and fifty percent of its original power.

The Heavenly Vision Sect was known for being good at manufacturing talismans of ancient cultivators. However, the power of the talismans they produced was far from what was introduced in this Jade slip.

Liu Guang was nothing more than a Foundation Establishment Initial Stage cultivator. It was impossible for him to get in touch with the core secrets of the sect. He didn't know where he got the Jade slip. Although Lin Xuan had read his memory, he only paid attention to the stuff related to his identity.

However, it was meaningless to look into it. Anyway, he picked up a treasure this time. Although with his current cultivation base, he was still unable to come in contact with Earth Tier Spells, he could only wait after advancing into the Core Formation Stage in the future…

Lin Xuan was overjoyed, he released his Spiritual Sense and searched the cave mansion carefully, not missing a single corner. But this time, he didn't find anything unexpected.

Lin Xuan was not discouraged and was quite content. He pulled a futon and sat in a Lotus Position. When he was about to have a rest, his expression moved slightly and a message talisman flew in. He hesitated for a moment, then used a Magic Spell, and the door of the Cave Mansion was opened.

There are actually more than twenty cultivators standing outside. Seeing this scene, Lin Xuan was shocked and wondered if he had been exposed, but when he saw that there was only one cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage and the rest were all disciples of the Spirit Gathering Stage, he was relieved.

The leader seemed about thirty years old, his body was slightly fat, and he looked very kind, "Haha, junior brother Liu, I've been given an order from the sect master. Can you please come with me?"

"Another task?"Lin Xuan frowned. From Liu Guang'a memories, he knew that this person's name was Gao Yang. He was one of the deacons of this Sect. He was sleek and his cultivation base had reached the Foundation Establishment Middle-Stage.

Although they were not very familiar with each other, they had a decent relationship.

After mulling it over in his brain, Lin Xuan said with a puzzled expression, "Senior Brother Gao, what happened? I just finished my task, why do I have to…"

"We have no choice, there isn't enough manpower!"Gao Yang sighed and took out a silver token from his arm, "This is a decree personally issued by the sect master. Would you like to have a look?"

"No need, how can I not trust you?"Lin Xuan shook his head, and a trace of satisfaction appeared on Gao Yang's face.

"But Senior Brother, you haven't answered my question yet, what happened? Why is it so urgent?"Lin Xuan also wanted to know the current situation of the mountain, so as to determine his next step.

"Well, things are really tricky, let's talk about it on the way."

"Ok!"

After leaving the Cave Mansion, everyone turned into all kinds of beams of light and followed Gao Yang towards the southeast.

"I don't know the details, I only know that something happened at the Wondrous Medicine Valley."Gao Yang said with a frown.

"Wondrous Medicine Valley, isn't Martial Uncle Liu there along with many powerful restrictions?"

"I don't know, but this sect is now a mess. The Sect Master and several Martial Uncles rushed are on their way to the valley, and the foreign cultivators at the Reception Building are also fighting with us."

"The Reception building?"Lin Xuan was surprised and delighted. All the people living there were cultivators at the Core Formation Stage who took part in the Trade Fair. Although he didn't know why they had a conflict with the Heavenly Vision Sect, the more chaotic the current situation was the more advantageous it would be.

Facing this sudden change, even though Daoist Master Ku Mu was brave and intelligent, he didn't know how to deal with the chaos in front of him. When he and his several junior brothers came to the Wondrous Medicine Valley, Lin Xuan and Tian Xiaojian had already left.

The spring eye was destroyed, the Spirit Herbs were looted. The few cultivators of Core Formation Stages were so furious that they almost vomited blood.

Daoist Master Ku was even on the verge of collapsing, but after taking a deep breath, he forced himself to calm down. It was not the time to grieve or vent.

But there were several important things that had to be done as soon as possible.

The first thing was to find the assailant, the other party destroyed the spring eye, it undoubtedly ruined the foundation of the sect. It would be really hard to dispel this hatred if they didn't extract his soul and refine it.

The second was to set up defensive measures. Now the power of the Cloud-Splitting Light Array was greatly reduced. There was only one of the ten layers of its magical power left. If this matter was premeditated by the other party, it was necessary to prevent a large-scale sneak attack from a hostile sect.
