243: Xiaobai was amazed, this was the real art of resurrection!

Chapter 243: Xiao Bai's Amazement, The True Soul Return Technique!

Those few murals were exactly the ones Su Han had painstakingly cut down from the second level of the Xuanhuo Altar, potentially hiding the Soul Return Technique.

If he hadn't suddenly seen them again today, they truly would have almost been forgotten in a corner of his memory.

"What are you looking at?"

Xiao Bai looked at Su Han at this moment, suddenly staring blankly at the few murals casually placed not far away, a hint of inquiry flashing in her eyes.

Stepping with her elegant little paws, she slowly approached the murals.

Her fluffy head tilted slightly to the side, one paw stepping on a mural, "You've been staring at these broken murals. Could they be something good?"

Hearing this, Su Han snapped back from his contemplation, nodding, "They really are good things!"

Saying this, Su Han briefly recounted the origin of these murals to Xiao Bai.

"Soul Return Technique?"

Xiao Bai's originally lively ears instantly perked up, her nine tails unconsciously swayed gently, and her expression became solemn.

"I've also heard of such a magical Miao Xinjiang Spell, one that is almost like resurrection."

"But because its effect is extremely Heaven-Defying and almost impossible to trace, most people only regard it as a legend."

"How are you so sure that these murals contain records of the Soul Return Technique?"

Su Han walked to the murals, rearranging them one by one according to the order in his memory, explaining as he did so.

"Back then, on the second level of the Xuanhuo Altar, as soon as I saw these murals, I felt a mysterious and ancient aura lingering around them."

"The patterns and symbols on them exude an indescribable peculiarity."

"Moreover, if it were just simple murals, why would they be carved on the second level of the Xuanhuo Altar?"

"How important the Xuanhuo Altar is to Incense Valley, I don't need to say much, right?"

Hearing this, Xiao Bai subconsciously felt that what Su Han said made quite a bit of sense.

After all, although she was imprisoned in the Xuanhuo Altar back then, the Xuanhuo Altar wasn't specially built just to imprison her.

Before she invaded Incense Valley, the Xuanhuo Altar had already existed for a long time.

That was the forbidden area of Incense Valley, the place where the mystic fire jade was enshrined.

"Hearing you say that, these few murals really don't seem simple."

Su Han stroked Xiao Bai's head, "Naturally."

"Since the patterns on these murals are depictions of the Soul Return Technique's ritual..."

"Then the relationship between these murals and the Soul Return Technique is clearly not shallow."

"Therefore, I speculate that these few murals are absolutely not ordinary. There is a ninety percent certainty that they hide the secret of the Soul Return Technique."

A glint of sharp light flashed in Xiao Bai's eyes. She leaned forward slightly, her small paw gently resting on the edge of the mural.

"In that case..."

"Then if we study them carefully, perhaps we can truly unveil the mystery of this legendary Spell."

Su Han nodded.

And so, one person and one fox focused on studying the murals.

Su Han carefully examined each mural, not missing a single line or symbol on them, trying to find a pattern within the seemingly disordered designs.

Xiao Bai, meanwhile, closed her eyes beside him, using her keen spiritual sense to perceive details that Su Han might have overlooked.

However, time quietly slipped away, and the sun gradually set in the west.

The soft afterglow shone upon them, but the two who had been researching for a long time still had no clue.

Su Han frowned tightly, "Where exactly is the secret in these murals?"

"Could it be that there's a hidden layer within the murals?"

Xiao Bai shook her head, "I sensed it long ago. This is a single piece of mural connected to the stone wall; there's no hollow space inside."

"Su Han, could this Soul Return Technique just be a legend and not exist at all?"

"Impossible!"

Su Han directly and emphatically denied it.

Xiao Bai might not be very clear, but Su Han had read the original Zhu Xian novel.

In the original work, the Soul Return Technique definitely exists, and there are people who can perform it.

Therefore.

Su Han took a deep breath, "Xiao Bai, the Soul Return Technique is real."

"And we, we just haven't found the correct method to decipher the murals' mystery yet."

"Alright then."

Seeing Su Han so certain, Xiao Bai stopped trying to persuade him and began examining the murals again.

After all, she had indeed heard rumors of the Soul Return Technique; she had only felt a bit disheartened just now because she couldn't find any clues after much effort.

Just then.

Chirp, chirp chirp...

Little Grey, who had been playing by himself in the distance, suddenly came over, chirping.

His golden eyes curiously sized up Su Han and Xiao Bai, then glanced at the murals on the ground, seemingly full of curiosity about their actions.

Xiao Bai turned her head to see Little Grey and waved her paw irritably.

"Go on, go play over there, don't mess around here."

"You little monkey are too young; you don't understand these things yet."

But Little Grey was persistent, still chirping and chattering, even reaching out to grab the mural.

At this moment, Su Han looked at the Three-Eyed Spirit Monkey Little Grey in front of him, and a flash of lightning seemed to cross his mind. He suddenly thought of something and slapped his hand together.

"That's right!"

"How did I forget before?!"

As a Three-Eyed Spirit Monkey, Little Grey is exceptionally gifted, especially his third eye on his forehead. It can not only see through illusions but also possesses an extraordinary perception of various obscure energy flows.

The secret hidden in these murals is so profound; perhaps with the unique ability of the third eye, something can be discovered.

Thinking of this.

Su Han waved his hand, and a dark golden light slowly emerged from between his eyebrows.

An Eye of the Divine, radiating a mysterious and ancient aura, slowly opened, examining the murals in front of him one by one.

Seeing this scene, a hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Bai's eyes, "Huh?"

"This... isn't this Little Grey's innate Divine Ability? You've actually mastered it too?"

Saying this, Xiao Bai's eyes were full of admiration.

"Su Han, your talent is truly astonishing. You are the most exaggerated human I have ever seen."

"Just by watching Little Grey perform it, you can actually create a similar Spell yourself!"

"If all humans were like you, us innate Spirit Beasts would probably have no way to survive!"

Su Han smiled slightly, not explaining that it was due to the System.

After all, matters concerning the System were too shocking; the fewer people who knew, the better.

Immediately, Su Han concentrated his mind and looked at the murals again through his third eye.

Instantly, the patterns on the murals seemed to come alive, beginning to flow slowly, and some details that had not appeared before gradually surfaced.

A look of pleasant surprise flashed in Su Han's eyes.

In a corner of one of the murals, he discovered an anomaly!

It was an extremely tiny symbol; if not for the Eye of the Divine, Su Han would not have been able to detect it at all.

He continued to explore along this symbol, like grasping a ray of dawn in the darkness, and actually discovered a series of information hidden deep within the murals.

As he delved deeper into the interpretation of this information, a look of joy gradually appeared on Su Han's face.

After a period of arduous study...

"It truly is the Soul Return Technique!"

Su Han was overjoyed at this moment, "My guess was indeed correct!"

Xiao Bai had been paying attention to Su Han's changing expressions. Seeing this, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Su Han, did you really discover the Soul Return Technique?"

Su Han nodded vigorously, "That's right, I really found it."

"However..."

Su Han frowned slightly, "This Soul Return Technique as a whole is extremely complex. It not only requires a remnant soul as a guide but also needs to be combined with specific incantations and rituals to reunite the souls of the departed."

Hearing this, Xiao Bai's eyes were still excited, "That's still good!"

"After all, this technique is so Heaven-Defying. Learning it might be able to change quite a few things."

"Change quite a few things?"

Su Han subconsciously thought of that green-clothed girl who died using the Love Curse to resist the Zhu Xian Sword, "It truly can, change quite a few things!"

Thinking of this.

Su Han suddenly thought again of the task that Sect Head Dao Xuan had mentioned earlier.

"I haven't been out for two days. I wonder if Sect Head Dao Xuan has looked for me during this time?"
