201: Chapter 200: Breakthrough, Spirit Sea Fourth Level!

“Which two?” Lin Xuan asked telepathically.

“The first one,andvance to a Second Grade Rune Master.”

“By then, with your Soul Power, you should be able to remove it.”

“The second one, perhaps the Ancient Rune of that girl could give you some inspiration.”

Lord of Wine laid out the two methods.

Lin Xuan’s eyes flickered, advancing to a Second Grade Rune Master was not something that could be accomplished in a short time, yet people from the Purple Extreme Demon Palace could appear at any moment.

If by then a Martial Artist of either the Spirit Sea Sixth Layer or the Spirit Sea Seventh Layer appeared, Lin Xuan and his companion would be in trouble.

“Miss Zhao, there might be a way to remove the mark on me now, would you be willing?” Lin Xuan asked gravely.

“What way?” Zhao Xue asked, naturally hoping that Lin Xuan would be alright.

“I wonder if I could take a look at your Ancient Rune, it might be useful to me.”

“This…” Zhao Xue was stunned, she blinked, her expression struggling.

Chirp chirp!

While Lin Xuan was waiting, the Snow White Monkey suddenly appeared.

It scratched its little head with its paw, seeming to understand Lin Xuan’s current predicament.

The Snow White Monkey jumped onto Zhao Xue’s body, blinking its black gem-like eyes.

Whoosh!

A flash of white light, and the little monkey had something in its hand.

“What is this?” Lin Xuan was stumped, the speed of the Snow White Monkey had increased again, and he hadn’t seen it clearly.

Zhao Xue was even more surprised, almost crying out.

The Snow White Monkey grinned, clutching the object and returned to Lin Xuan’s side.

Taking the object from the little monkey’s hand, Lin Xuan inspected it carefully.

It was a round stone, the surface somewhat rough, and on the other side of the stone were carvings of an eyeball and whites of the eye.

“It’s actually an eyeball!” Lin Xuan exclaimed.

He looked towards Zhao Xue, who looked back with a shocked face.

“Could this be the Ancient Rune you mentioned?” Lin Xuan suddenly had a thought.

Zhao Xue nodded sadly, her expression unnatural.

“Don’t worry, I’ll return it to you after I’ve looked at it,” Lin Xuan said gravely.

Zhao Xue slightly lifted her head, her eyes revealing a look of surprise.

Typical Rune Masters, upon encountering such an Ancient Rune, would go insane, nowhere as calm as Lin Xuan.

Little did she know, Lin Xuan possessed many treasures.

Mysterious Small Sword, Great Dragon Sword Intent, each surpassing the value of this Ancient Rune.

Placing the stone eyeball on his palm, Lin Xuan gazed intently.

Purple Light flickering in his eyes, he slowly approached with his Soul Power.

Buzz!

The stone eyeball suddenly emanated a trace of light, displaying a peculiar Rune.

Lin Xuan had never seen such a complex Rune, it far exceeded his knowledge.

He couldn’t comprehend the content within at the moment, only managing to copy the pattern into his mind.

After ensuring he had copied it correctly, Lin Xuan returned the stone eyeball to Zhao Xue.

Zhao Xue caught it carefully, then said softly, “You are a good person!”

Lin Xuan smiled wryly, did not respond, and closed his eyes to study the Ancient Rune he had received.

Not understanding it was not a problem, with Lord of Wine, the Engraving Master, Lin Xuan was not worried.

He sent the Ancient Rune to Lord of Wine and began to cultivate.

He took out the Ice Platform, sat cross-legged on it, and then operated the Longevity Technique.

His Cultivation had already reached the Spirit Sea Third Layer Peak, and with tonight’s battle, he felt a breakthrough coming.

Zhao Xue felt a chill, and she looked at Lin Xuan in astonishment once again before clasping the stone eyeball to comprehend it.

Both of them were exerting their full efforts to enhance their own strength, leaving only the Snow White Monkey rolling on the ground.

Fortunately, this time the little monkey did not leave, nor did it attract a crowd.

Two hours later, the aura emanating from Lin Xuan grew stronger.

Around him, there were three layers of wave-like ripples, each exuding a robust energy.

Above them, a fourth layer of waves seemed translucent, releasing an even more powerful force.

Zhao Xue was awakened by this aura, her mouth slightly agape, she looked incredulously at Lin Xuan.

With her cultivation at the Spirit Sea Fifth Layer Heaven, she felt a sense of helplessness in front of Lin Xuan.

This was not a pressure from his presence; rather, it was a comparison of the quality of Spiritual Power.

She discovered that Lin Xuan’s Spiritual Power quality was extremely high, almost on par with a Martial Artist of the Spirit Sea Fifth Layer Heaven.

This was all thanks to the Longevity Technique; Lin Xuan’s Spiritual Power quality and quantity both equated to a Martial Artist of the Spirit Sea Fifth Layer Heaven.

And his strength was comparable to a warrior of the Spirit Sea Sixth Layer Heaven.

Boom—

An imposing aura spread out like waves, blowing all the accumulated snow around them away.

Lin Xuan slowly opened his eyes, his gaze sparkling.

He felt his entire body brimming with power; he was now capable of contending with a Martial Artist of the Spirit Sea Sixth Layer Heaven!

“Congratulations, Mr.

Lin, on your breakthrough!” Zhao Xue said from the side.

“Thank you,” Lin Xuan responded indifferently, without much surprise, as he considered the breakthrough an inevitable eventuality.

“We should rest, tomorrow we will head to Fire State.”

Zhao Xue nodded and resumed her comprehension.

The night passed without words.

The next day, Lin Xuan and Zhao Xue set off early, quickly navigating their way through the forest using qinggong.

Half a day later, they left Snow State.

Not long after they left, several people in purple clothes arrived at the small courtyard where Lin Xuan had stayed.

It was a flattened land now, leaving only some remnants.

The aura of these three purple-clothed individuals was incredibly strong, far surpassing those they encountered before.

“Dare to kill a member of the Purple Extreme Demon Palace?

Even if you flee to the ends of the Earth, we will capture you and make you taste every torture known to man.”

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

The three turned into purple shadows and vanished from the spot.

Qing Province, vast mountains.

Lin Xuan and Zhao Xue had subdued two Demon Tigers to serve as their mounts, speeding through the forest.

Lin Xuan held a map of Xia Country, saying, “Passing through this forest, we will reach Fire State, which is the quickest route.”

“Then let’s speed up,” Zhao Xue urged somewhat anxiously.

Both Demon Tigers transformed into demonic winds, continuing rapidly forward.

Along the way, both were silent, focusing on their respective cultivations.

“Little Xuanzi, I’ve looked at the Ancient Rune, and I’ve broadly classified it into two types.”

Lord of Wine slowly spoke, “The first type is Soul Capture, capable of creating attacks like those of the Spirit Space.”

“The second type is Soul Fire, extremely powerful but also very dangerous; I think that stone eyeball must have perished because of overusing the Soul Fire.”

Lin Xuan communicated with the Lord of Wine through soul exchange; he discovered that Lord of Wine had simplified the Ancient Rune into several runes.

He knew this was specifically modified for him by Lord of Wine, as his current realm wasn’t sufficient to understand the complexities.

Distracting a strand of his consciousness to control the Demon Tigers forward, Lin Xuan began studying the runes provided by Lord of Wine.

Originally, he couldn’t understand the Ancient Rune, but now he could clearly understand them and also knew why the Purple Extreme Demon Palace was after the rune.

If he wasn’t mistaken, the Pupil Skill of Purple Extreme Demon Palace should be similar to the one exhibited by the stone eyeball.

He even suspected there might be some connection between the two.
