Before them, as Han Yan struck with her palm, a strange light flashed from one of the nine Star Points, and then, like a soap bubble bursting, it exploded into myriad rays of colorful brilliance.
As the radiance faded away, the light of the seal pattern visibly dimd, with parts becoming even more indistinct and hard to discern.
It was clear that Han Yan had forcibly broken one of the weaknesses in this seal.
How was this possible? Although they did not understand how difficult it was to forcefully break this seal, they knew it was no easy task. In their imagination, Han Yan should have spent three to five hours, exhausted and half-dead, before successfully breaking through one Sealing Point.
They had even taken out their provisions, preparing for a long wait, never expecting that Han Yan would take less than seven and a half minutes to break through the first Sealing Point.
"This kid’s luck is indeed quite good," Nian An Yao said, swallowing and chuckling dryly.
"Indeed, indeed," the Fifth Prince also replied with a forced smile.
Besides attributing it to luck, they really couldn’t find any other reason.
As soon as they said that, another Sealing Point suddenly burst open, and disappeared like a soap bubble.
Then, another one.
And then another.
Yet another...and yet another.
In almost just a few breaths, those nine Sealing Points burst open one after another like firecrackers.
The entire light of the seal grew fainter, and as the last Sealing Point exploded, it completely disappeared.
An ancient-looking gate appeared on that stone wall.
The seal was broken, broken so easily.
What happened to being exhausted, what happened to being half-dead? Even worn out like a dead dog? Look at Han Yan, apart from a slight sheen of sweat on her forehead, she was as vigorous as a live dragon.
The Fifth Prince, Nian An Yao, and Qu Fengting were all dumbfounded. If previously Han Yan breaking the first barrier point could be explained by luck, then how could this be explained now?
Huayue and the others also looked at Han Yan in amazent. Earlier, Ye Lanfeng had already ntioned that with his strength, breaking this seal would take several days, but now it was accomplished in just over half an hour, which clearly wasn’t because Ye Lanfeng underestimated himself, but rather due to Han Yan.
"Young Master, the technique you used just now seed like Master Qu’s Heavenly Star Breaking Seal Technique?" Zirong finally spoke, uncertainly asking.
Last ti, when Qu Shanling broke the seal of the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pond using the Heavenly Star Breaking Seal Technique, they were present and had so impression of it.
Recalling Han Yan’s palm strikes just now, initially, there was no pattern, but later, they were veiled with Hand Formations, quite similar to Qu Shanling’s Heavenly Star Breaking Seal Technique, yet seemingly more exquisite.
"More or less," Han Yan replied.
"Young Master, when did you even learn his Heavenly Star Breaking Seal Technique? Is there anything else you haven’t learned?" Huayue paused for a mont, then spoke weakly.
The forr playboy of Heishi City, now the foremost playboy of the Capital, was apparently such a genius. Those who once mocked their young master for being unlearned and supposedly born a wastrel, shouldn’t they all go bash their heads now? Who said their young master was a wastrel? Co, co, step up before them, they’ll promise not to beat them to death, only cripple them at most.
Never mind them, even Huayue and her companions had the urge to hit a wall. They had once thought of themselves as having decent talent, only to realize when following Han Yan that their so-called talent was pathetically diocre.
Following such a master surely brings imnse pressure.
By their side, Zhang Chihua, whose heart was originally considered firm and resilient, was also greatly shaken. Not only did Han Yan possess the Sword Dao cultivation of a Third Stage Sword Master, but also the stellar Star Divination Technique, and now, such a wondrous Seal Breaking Technique as well. Comparing oneself to others is indeed aggravating to the extre.
At this mont, Zhang Chihua utterly admired his father’s foresight and decisive judgnt, so much that he was completely in awe. As Han Yan’s fa was just beginning to rise, and many still took him lightly, if they waited a few more years for him to truly soar, even if the Zhang Family wanted to ally with the Mu Family, others might not even deem them worthy.
Zhang Chihua had an illusion that so day the Mu Family would stand atop the Eight Great Families, compelling the other seven to submit, and the reason would be Han Yan.
"Alright, get ready. Let’s go in," Han Yan took a deep breath and said to the others.
Actually, the hand formations she used just now did indeed originate from Qu Shanling’s Heavenly Star Breaking Seal Technique. However, the reason she perford this set of hand formations wasn’t deliberate. In fact, when Qu Shanling used the Heavenly Star Breaking Seal Technique last ti, although she carefully observed it, the hand formations were endlessly complex and profound, not sothing one could learn in just one viewing.
Besides, back then, she wasn’t particularly interested in the Star Divination Technique either, knowing that her foundation in this aspect was too shallow, so she didn’t deliberately ponder or deduce it, rely holding a vague impression in her mind, unable to freely wield it.
However, just now, as she struck palm after palm, using Qi to inject her Divine Sense into the seal, her heart suddenly trembled.
An indescribable feeling lingered in her mind, as if there was a mysterious connection between this seal and her, each ti infusing Divine Sense, she seed to enter the seal along with it.
Each of the talisman symbols on that seal appeared vividly before her, and Qu Shanling’s Heavenly Star Breaking Seal Technique miraculously erged in her mind, unexpectedly clear.
She then discovered that if she drew these hand formations on paper, they secretly matched the talisman symbols. So, Han Yan tried to follow the sequence of the symbols, delivering the Heavenly Star Breaking Seal Technique one after another, but unfortunately, it had no effect.
Han Yan absolutely did not believe that the mysterious connection between her mind and the seal, along with the suddenly erged Heavenly Star Breaking Seal Technique, was without reason; the lack of effect must have an underlying cause.
After pondering for a mont, an idea struck Han Yan. According to the sequence of the talisman symbols, she reversed and struck the hand formations from back to front. Even she didn’t expect that this mont of inspiration would so easily break open the seal that would have otherwise taken Ye Lanfeng several days to break.
This...what exactly is going on? Why is there such an indescribable mysterious connection between her and this seal? Why did Qu Shanling’s Heavenly Star Breaking Seal Technique suddenly erge in her mind? What is the reason behind all this?
Too many questions, too much confusion, left Han Yan utterly unable to think of answers.
Could it be, this too is due to the bloodline of the Guardian of the Gods? This was the only possibility Han Yan could think of.
Thinking so in her heart, Han Yan beca even more eager about the Ancient Relics concealed by this seal.
