Chu Ning stood before the statue of a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and large eyes.
According to what he had seen on the murals in the Grand Elder’s cave mansion.
This was a genuine Early Stage of Nascent Soul Cultivator.
And also the owner of this cave mansion.
Chu Ning thought for a mont, then began to seriously explore the statue again with his Divine Sense.
But still, there was no discovery.
After a slight hesitation, Chu Ning condensed a fireball and directly hurled it toward the statue.
At this mont, a surprising scene unfolded before Chu Ning’s eyes.
He saw the part of the statue hit by the fireball turn white, and vaguely, so inscriptions started to appear.
"Using fire attribute spells can reveal inscriptions?"
Upon realizing this, Chu Ning’s face lit up with joy.
Imdiately, he launched several fireballs at the statue.
Soon, the entire statue turned white as if it were made of porcelain, in stark contrast to its previous stone appearance.
The front and back of the statue were densely covered with inscriptions.
"Wind and Fire Scorched Earth!"
Seeing the inscriptions clearly, Chu Ning couldn’t help but call out softly.
Carved on it was a top-level lower-grade spell!
Moreover, it was a Wind and Fire Dual Elent Technique.
Though the technique itself wasn’t imnsely powerful, if used in conjunction with a fire technique.
By leveraging the natural principle of wind aiding fire, after casting a fire technique, this Wind and Fire Scorched Earth could enhance the fire technique by using the wind and fire attributes within the Spiritual Qi.
When used skillfully, it could directly double the power of a fire technique.
After reading the description of the technique, Chu Ning quickly morized every word of it.
Just as Chu Ning finished morizing the entire spell formula, the inscriptions began to fade from the spot he had initially burned with fire.
Simultaneously, the white color slowly dissipated, returning to its original hue.
This phenonon quickly spread, soon covering the entire statue.
The statue, initially white like porcelain, reverted back to a stone-like form.
Just as Chu Ning was about to use fire again to reveal the inscriptions.
There was a crashing sound, and the statue crumbled into pieces, scattering across the ground.
Then, as though a hidden chanism had been triggered.
"Crash" sounds echoed all around as more than a dozen other statues also shattered.
Seeing this, Chu Ning felt montarily lost.
When observing the anomaly of the statue, Chu Ning considered using the sa thod on the other statues to see if he could discover a few more cultivation techniques.
Now, this thought was dashed.
"I wonder if this chanism is set so that once one statue breaks, they all do."
Thinking this, Chu Ning was glad he had asked Ling Xiaobai beforehand and started with the current statue.
Otherwise, if such a unique technique as Wind and Fire Scorched Earth were destroyed, it would have been a great loss.
Quickly retrieving a Jade Scroll from his storage bag, Chu Ning recorded the Wind and Fire Scorched Earth Technique he had just morized.
For future contemplation and understanding.
After ensuring there was nothing left behind in the stone chamber, Chu Ning left and continued heading downward.
If he had obtained the Wind and Fire Scorched Earth Technique earlier, Chu Ning would certainly have tried to comprehend it before leaving.
But based on his previous experiences learning Divine Wind Escape and Wind-Attracting Technique, even with a Wind Spirit Root, learning wind techniques required ti.
This could potentially take as long as a year or two, a ti fra Chu Ning could no longer afford to wait.
Descending from Elder Mountain, Chu Ning arrived at the grand hall.
Recollecting that among the Thunder Fire Sect’s two sect leaders and fifteen elders, ten were Nascent Soul Cultivators, including three Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivators.
Yet they ultimately t such a decline.
Chu Ning couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
He wandered through the grand hall, using his Divine Sense, now even more powerful than before, to ticulously search around.
Finding nothing unusual, he continued toward the sect’s outskirts.
But it made sense; since the Outer Celestial Demons had already invaded the sect, it was remarkable the grand hall remained intact, let alone containing valuable items.
Regarding the prior fortunate discovery of the Double Fire Ring and the Thundering Bead here, it was entirely a pleasant surprise.
The route forward was entirely familiar to Chu Ning.
He quickly reached the sect’s exit, and cloaked in Ling Xiaobai’s white light, he left the ancient sect’s grand array.
Having experienced this location before, as soon as he entered the water, he imdiately used the Cyan Light Bead to keep the lake water at bay.
Subrging in the water, using his strong Divine Sense to sense his surroundings, Chu Ning then erged from the water.
"Fifteen hundred zhang!"
At this mont, Chu Ning confird his Divine Sense’s extended range.
This brought a slight smile to his face.
After gaining the golden light that enhanced his Divine Sense in the Grand Elder’s cave and subsequently breaking through to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishnt.
His Divine Sense essentially doubled in strength compared to before.
With these thoughts, Chu Ning flew forward at a steady pace using a normal escape technique.
He had already planned what to do once outside.
If the situation outside proved dangerous, he would unhesitatingly head to Jade Spring Island and leave through the teleportation array.
