Chapter 98: DON’T BUY THIS - (Chap 98 repeat)
Sol soon reached the General Library’s entrance and entered. He then went straight to the second floor and walked all the way to the back where no disciples were.
Afterward, he flipped over his palm and took out a small wooden box along with his last two dakkochi and three mid-grade Aether stones.
After opening the wooden box, Sol placed the items inside, before leaving the box on the ground between two shelves. He then formed several hand seals before pointing at the box.
Immediately, a blue rune inscription was imprinted inside the box on the top and a red at the bottom before fading away. Then, Sol formed more hand seals and pointed at the box once again. This time two slowly rotating blue rune inscriptions appeared below and above the box, encapsulating it in a red glow.
After doing all of this, Sol turned and hid behind some shelves. He then folded his arms and leaned his back against the shelf while closing his eyes. With that, his presence completely vanished.
About half an hour later, a red robe disciple with a disheveled appearance was seen approaching the box.
This person was someone extremely familiar. It was the youth Sol had met while climbing the Heavenly Staircase.
After looking around, the youth crouched down and bit his finger. He winched at the pain as his skin was pierced by his teeth.
Then, while holding his finger over the box, he allowed a drop of blood to fall onto the rotating black rune inscription atop the box.
It seemed it was not his first time doing this as he did it with extreme familiarity.
After the black rune inscription on top of the box absorbed the youth’s blood, both it and the other black rune at the bottom stopped their rotation, cracked in several places and then shattered altogether.
