244: Chapter 243: Enlightennt Within the Engraving Tower 244: Chapter 243: Enlightennt Within the Engraving Tower Lin Xuan was moved by the vision before him.
“This must be a scene from the past, reappearing.
Carefully feel their inscription patterns and compare them with your own,” Lord of Wine communicated telepathically.
Lin Xuan intently felt and compared them against his own knowledge, reaping significant benefits.
He felt that his Soul Power had beco much purer, not at all like it had just been enhanced.
“What a wonderful feeling,” Lin Xuan rejoiced in his heart.
Once the effect beca very minor, he finally stood up.
Setting aside other benefits, just the tempering of the Soul Power alone made his trip worthwhile.
Looking again towards the walls around him, Lin Xuan carefully contemplated.
The engravings were quite simple and not complex, yet Lin Xuan sensed an inexplicable aura from them.
It was as if each stroke contained the true essence of inscriptions.
At that mont, Lin Xuan made a decision—he would not venture to the higher floors but instead resolve to ticulously study the inscription patterns on the First Level.
Firstly, these patterns seed simple, yet they contained profound mysteries.
Moreover, his Soul Power had improved substantially, covering what would take others decades or even centuries, and he needed to thoroughly consolidate this gain.
“Ha ha, not bad!” Lord of Wine nodded with satisfaction.
“The resolve you show in forsaking the upper levels to solely study the First Level is a boldness others likely do not possess.”
Indeed, all the talents entering the Engraving Tower couldn’t wait to rush to higher floors, and none had stayed so long on the First Level.
Not to ntion comprehend anything!
If you thoroughly grasp the essence of the First Level, the benefits are imnse, far surpassing anything on the higher levels.
With Lord of Wine’s support, Lin Xuan felt even more confident and focused entirely on his comprehension.
“Great truths are always simple,” a saying applicable to any form of cultivation.
From these patterns, Lin Xuan learned much, clarifying many aspects that had been vague in his daily understanding.
Of course, the more he delved into it, the more unfathomable the path of inscriptions seed.
Eventually, he imprinted all the surrounding patterns into his mind.
A day hurriedly passed, and it was almost ti to leave.
Zi Ye and Yu Fei had both co down from the higher floors.
Both wore expressions of excitent, obviously having gained considerable benefits.
However, they were stunned when they saw Lin Xuan, who remained seated in ditation.
“This guy, he couldn’t have stayed on the First Layer the entire ti, could he?” Yu Fei said, baffled, while Zi Ye just sneered.
They paid no attention to Lin Xuan, nor did they notice the patterns on the walls around them.
In their eyes, what good could the First Level possibly hold?
After half an hour, the Stone Gate opened again.
Zi Ye rushed out first.
Yu Fei quickly followed, with Lin Xuan being the last.
He slowly stood up, bowed to the surroundings, and then walked towards the Stone Gate.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
The four patterns flashed with light and entered his mind.
Lin Xuan felt invigorated, sensing he could easily discern those four engraved patterns.
Subduing his excitent, Lin Xuan walked out of the Stone Tower.
Loud laughter emanated from the Purple Extre Demon Palace, presumably from gaining desirable items.
The Rain Country area was also filled with joyous voices.
Zi Ye had reached the Eighth Floor, and Yu Fei had reached the Seventh Floor; both had obtained valuable things.
“Lin Xuan, which floor did you reach?” Elder Song asked.
Hearing this, disciples from the other two countries pricked up their ears.
“Hmph, I originally thought he was so genius, but now it seems, he is rely a fool!” Zi Ye sneered, “The genius of your Xia Country actually stayed on the First Level for a whole day, how ridiculous!”
“What?” The crowd was stunned, all turning their eyes to Lin Xuan.
Many wore sneers, while others were puzzled, as in their view, Lin Xuan wouldn’t commit such a foolish act.
Elder Song and Elder Gu were also full of surprise, looking at Lin Xuan with confusion.
Lin Xuan didn’t want to say much, if they misunderstood, then he would let them.
In doing so, he could avoid much trouble.
“Just consolidating my Soul Power, it took so ti.”
Everyone sighed.
That was the Engraving Tower, how many treasures were inside, and just like that, Lin Xuan had wasted them!
Elder Song and Elder Gu sighed and said no more.
Rest for a while, and return tomorrow.
People dispersed, preparing for the journey back.
In the evening, Lin Xuan found the two elders and requested so Jade Scrolls.
“Lin Xuan, what do you need this for?” Elder Song and Elder Gu were puzzled.
Lin Xuan, holding the Jade Scroll, duplicated a pattern from the wall into it, handing it to the two elders.
“In these days, I’ve been under your care.
Here are so inscription engravings from the Engraving Tower; they might be useful to you.”
Elder Song and Elder Gu were slightly surprised; they did not expect Lin Xuan to give them sothing like this.
Using their Soul Power to probe, they saw a very simple inscription pattern, but upon closer inspection, it wasn’t so simple.
“This is…” Elder Song, being a Third-grade Rune Master with far greater insight than ordinary people.
Though he couldn’t understand it at the mont, he knew from many years of experience that this was not as simple as it looked.
“It seems you’ve gained more than we thought; now I can rest assured.”
Elder Song and Elder Gu put away the Jade Scrolls, smiling at Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan scratched his head with a smile; this was only one of the engravings, and not even one of the four peculiar ones.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to give them; there was an inexplicable force preventing Lin Xuan from duplicating those four patterns.
“Elders, I plan to travel and won’t return with the group tomorrow,” Lin Xuan said softly.
He wanted to cultivate and increase his strength, preparing for a battle with Lin Feng.
But the main reason was that he held a map pointing to a place not far from here, which he wanted to explore.
“That’s fine; Xia Country is too small.
With your talent, you’ll shine even in the Tian Nan Domain,” Elder Song, with his exceptional insight, didn’t stop Lin Xuan.
“This is the Deacon Token of the Engraving Alliance; if you encounter difficulties, go to the Engraving Alliance!” Elder Song said.
And Elder Gu also took out a palm-sized naplate: “This is the Elder Token from Ten Thousand Treasure Tower.
From now, you are an elder there!”
Lin Xuan took the tokens and put them away.
“Elders, farewell!”
After bidding goodbye to the elders, Lin Xuan approached Weiwei again.
Quietly handing over the Jade Scroll, Lin Xuan smiled, “Don’t show it to others.”
Weiwei was startled, then nodded, putting the Jade Scroll away.
“Take care; if fate allows, we’ll et again.” Lin Xuan waved his hand, disappearing into the night.
“Take care!” Weiwei nodded vigorously.
She knew with Lin Xuan’s talent, he would go far, while she could only desperately chase after him.
“Will we et again…” Weiwei gripped the Jade Scroll tightly.
Unbeknownst to him, his three Jade Scrolls would later produce three Engraving Masters, renowned in Xia Country and beyond.
But of course, that was a story for another ti.
The night was blurred; faint moonlight scattered on the ground.
He took out the tattered map, with many red dots, and so were near the Green Water Valley.
