Chapter 176: Unexpected Discovery
“How could I forget? I can now project my divine sense outwardly. I can completely use the power of divine sense to explore what it is.” After saying this, Shen Luo brought the jade slip to his forehead, and pasted it onto his own brow.
His eyes slightly closed and his divine sense sank into the jade slip.
Immediately, Shen Luo felt a burst of white light before his eyes, and his divine sense really entered into a white space.
He looked around within, using his divine soul, and found that in the void of the space, there were fragments of golden text floating in mid-air, amassing to tens of thousands.
“This can’t be some heavenly skill!” Shen Luo was overjoyed in his heart and eagerly looked towards those characters.
However, after reading a few segments, he knew he was on the wrong track again.
“Three years of Dragon Tree, early May, just after Duan Yang, I traveled with a good friend to Mount Tanji in Eastern Victorious Divine Continent. During the mountain climbing, I heard that there was a clear spirit dew appearing near the Hunyuan Pond. Upon arrival, I saw a seven-colored tertiary-foraging fairy deer radiating with colorful light all over its body, and its demon qi disappearing, indicating that it had eaten the clear spirit dew, thus realizing its magical effect. Initially, I wanted to capture the tertiary-foraging fairy deer, either as refinement material or as a mount, but its cultivation level had increased greatly due to the effect of clear spirit dew. Even with the joint efforts of my friend and I, it remained unattainable, which was regrettable. ”
“In the spring of the 16th year of Baoli, I travelled to the Eastern Great Tang. While passing through the western part of Leizhou in Northern Ju Lu Continent, I accidentally saw a man selling swords on the street in a town. I was greatly amazed when I first noticed that the sword contained faintly embedded thunder and lightning, and I could hear the thunderous sound from tens of feet away. However, ordinary people failed to notice it and did not know it’s a treasure. After I purchased the sword from him at a high price, I only found out that it was forged by his blacksmith ancestor and was struck by thunder during the making. His ancestor died and it has been deemed unlucky ever since, which led to the sword being covered in dust. Isn’t it strange that ordinary mortals, as long as they are in harmony with the heavenly and human, can also create magical treasures? Isn’t it fortunate that I got this due to chance?”
It turns out that the text in this jade slip is a collection of travel notes, recording a series of bizarre experiences its master had encountered along the way.
