Chapter 150: Chapter 147: Understanding the Scriptures

The two rode the Gale Eagle, flying away from the high tower, and headed towards the depths of Yang Hall, entering the sight of the Secret Martial Pavilion in no time.

Jumping down from the Gale Eagle, the two immediately entered the Secret Martial Pavilion.

The Guardian Elder, witnessing this scene, brightened his eyes as if he understood something, and gave Ye Xuan a meaningful look, making an encouraging gesture.

Seeing the current setup, Ye Xuan had most likely passed the Heavenly Thunder Body Refinement phase, and next, it was time for formal comprehension.

The Nine Heavens Thunder Scripture had been placed in the Secret Martial Pavilion for hundreds of years, yet no one had fully comprehended it. It was unknown whether Ye Xuan could break this rule.

Ye Xuan followed behind Murong Yun, feeling surprised. After passing the first and second floors, the two stopped at the entrance to the third floor.

Hiss!

Murong Yun raised his finger, pointed through the air, and a beam of Finger Light streaked from his fingertip, landing in a small hole in the wall in front of them. With a "click," the door immediately swung open, but inside, there still stood a stone door with a handprint on it.

Taking two steps forward, Murong Yun placed his right hand on the handprint and then turned it fiercely, with a muffled "boom," the stone door in front of them also burst open.

This scene made Ye Xuan quite solemn, the defensive mechanisms on this third floor were truly tight. But thinking about it, this place housed the Heavenly Martial Hall’s supreme art; if it were stolen, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Although few could comprehend it, the Nine Heavens Thunder Scripture in the Secret Martial Pavilion served more as a symbol, a deterrent. If even the hall’s defining martial art were lost, the sect would be gravely weakened, almost as if its Sect Leader had died.

Entering the third-floor space, Murong Yun flicked his finger again, sending a strand of True Qi onto an inconspicuous little bell directly ahead, and suddenly, the ground in front split apart, revealing various ingenious traps. If stepped into recklessly, even a Martial Sect Master would fall into great trouble.

Walking only on the safe path that remained, the two, after some distance, came upon a secluded inner chamber in front of them.

One after the other, they stepped into the inner chamber, and immediately, a unique pressure emanated from ahead, caused Ye Xuan’s heart to chill slightly, and he quickly raised his head to look forward.

In his view was an extremely ancient wall, densely engraved with patterns and numerous ancient characters. The strong pressure from when he first entered emanated from this wall!

"Are the engravings on this wall... the Nine Heavens Thunder Scripture?"

Ye Xuan’s gaze settled on the wall, feeling a trace of intimidation exuding from it, his expression somewhat surprised.

"Yes."

At this moment, Murong Yun’s eyes were also on the wall, with a hint of complexity flickering within, clearly even he, the Hall Master of Yang Hall, could only grasp the basics of the Nine Heavens Thunder Scripture, which was fundamental to the existence as well as the decline of Yang Hall.

Its complexity was beyond him, inaccessible to ordinary disciples.

Hearing this, Ye Xuan began to focus, his gaze falling on the somewhat scattered bizarre patterns and characters, and he too furrowed his brows.

"What do you think, does it seem chaotic? Can’t find any direction at all?"

Seeing the change in Ye Xuan’s expression, Murong Yun also seemed to find some psychological comfort. Even Ye Xuan, who had undergone the refinement of seventeen Heavenly Thunders, was initially baffled by the content on the stone wall, proving that the high difficulty of the Nine Heavens Thunder Scripture was universal to everyone.

"Indeed, it is somewhat chaotic, and there is no content regarding Martial Arts techniques."

In his previous life as the Martial God, Ye Xuan had practiced at least thirty or forty types of Martial Arts. Therefore, when he picked up a Martial Arts secret manual, he usually needed only a short time to discern its essence, which made his learning much faster.

However, the information on the stone wall in front of him did not resemble a type of Martial Arts at all, but rather, a combination of some chaotic doodles and some useless text.

This was not supposed to be.

A flicker of sharpness passed through his eyes. Ye Xuan took a step back, gradually widening his view, and the wall in front of him formed a whole, a chaotic whole.

His focus gradually concentrated, Ye Xuan stared fixedly at the wall in front of him, unmoving.

Seeing Ye Xuan, who seemed to be fully searching for a breakthrough, Murong Yun also sat down beside him. He was not surprised by this, as breaking through the mysteries of the Nine Heavens Thunder Scripture had himself intermittently sitting here for over a month before he uncovered its secrets. Now, even if Ye Xuan was exceptionally gifted, he would still need at least ten days.

But at this moment, Ye Xuan was unaware of Murong Yun’s thoughts. All his attention was focused on the stone wall in front of him, without the slightest distraction.

The text and patterns on the stone wall continuously recombined and reconfigured in various shapes in his eyes, only to be denied, deconstructed, and recombined again.

This process undoubtedly drained a lot of mental energy, but Ye Xuan’s spirit was still stronger than ordinary people’s, so he could maintain under such rapid cognitive operation.

"Indeed, there is no pattern."

After staring for a while, Ye Xuan felt a slight dizziness in his mind, then he also withdrew his gaze, planning to rest for a bit.

However, just at that moment, his eyes suddenly flashed with insight. Then, he abruptly looked up, and at that instant, the patterns and characters on the stone wall seemed to move rapidly, then under a profoundly mysterious operation, transformed into a very clear and authoritative ancient character for "Thunder."

"So that’s how it is."

A curve formed at the corner of Ye Xuan’s mouth, and before he could react further, his consciousness was enveloped by a strange fluctuation and dragged into it.

Buzz!

At this time, in the outside world, the stone wall suddenly lit up inch by inch with a strange glow, and from it emerged a golden "Thunder" character that directly imprinted itself onto Ye Xuan’s forehead, seemingly linking Ye Xuan and the stone wall in a split second.

"What?"

Murong Yun, who had just settled himself, jerkingly opened his eyes when he heard the noise, immediately his eyes wide and his mouth agape at the scene before him. This young man had actually broken through the mystery of the stone wall so quickly and succeeded in stepping into the threshold of the Nine Heavens Thunder Scripture?

Originally, it had taken him over a month to barely find a clue. Now, Ye Xuan had deciphered the profound mysteries of the stone wall in less than two hours. Upon this comparison, he felt utterly outstripped by Ye Xuan.

Truly, comparisons between people can be utterly disheartening.
