Chapter 122: The Old Man's Package

Moreover, with the quality of Yin General Scrolls, how could anyone return them?

Just reselling it could earn a profit.

After sending off the delivery guy, I opened the express package. Wow, it was a special delivery.

“What is this?”

Inside the package were some messy ancient books and notes.

He opened one and his eyes immediately lit up.

“This is… the research notes of an Ancient Scroll Master?”

The more Wu Xian read, the more startled he became. Finally, at the very bottom of the package, he found a letter. After seeing the signature, he was completely stunned.

It was actually sent by his grandfather, Wu Mingchang:

I came across this by chance and felt that Xian'er might find it useful, so I had someone send it back.

Everything is well on my end, so don't worry.

The brief message was indeed characteristic of the old man's style.

Wu Xian couldn't snap out of his daze for a long time.

No, where did the old man get something like this?

From a preliminary glance, it seemed to be a complete set of research notes from an early Scroll Master exploring new methods of scrolls. Although it only led to the rudimentary framework of new-style scrolls, for Wu Xian, this was undoubtedly invaluable information worth a fortune.

A moment later, he found the name of this early Scroll Master in one of the research records: Liu Feng.

He immediately searched online for the name of this early Great Master, but found no such person.

Such precious information was clearly not something ordinary people could access, which made Wu Xian intensely curious about the old man's identity.

After an entire night of reading, Wu Xian was deeply moved.

This early Scroll Master named Liu Feng was definitely a Great Master with a heart for the world. He almost single-handedly researched the rudimentary form of these “new-style Scrolls” that could allow more people to grasp extraordinary power.

There were also many explorations related to Domain Scrolls, which greatly enlightened Wu Xian's thinking.

“So, that's how Domain Scrolls were originally explored?”

According to these research notes, the original intention of “Domain Scrolls” was to create doomsday survival fortresses suitable for human survival in that dark era.

Therefore, the concept and ideas of Domain Scrolls described in the notes were completely different from current Domain Scrolls.

They were even different from the early Domain Scrolls like those in Dead Mountain Town.

It seemed to be a more ancient and primitive manufacturing idea than that of Dead Mountain Town.

This was of great help to Wu Xian in his subsequent research and production of “Dead Mountain Town”-like Domain Scrolls.

Additionally, some of the research perspectives were clearly derived from Ancient Scrolls. Ordinary Scroll Masters might not understand them, but Wu Xian, who possessed Ancient Scrolls, could.

“Heaven-bestowed scrolls?”

According to the notes, the early Awakened painters referred to paintings that displayed extraordinary power as Heaven-bestowed scrolls.

And those who possessed such Heaven-bestowed scrolls were called “Heavenly Masters” who saved the world.

Besides this, some of the research on otherworldly Materials and otherworldly power greatly broadened Wu Xian's thinking and vision.

It wasn't until Shifu-jie's call came from outside the door that Wu Xian's thoughts were pulled back.

He put all the information into his cosmos sack and stood up to follow Shifu-jie to the association.

Xue Lingling was full of curiosity about Tattoo Bro.

Upon arriving at the association, the first thing she had to do was meet Tattoo Bro, this extraordinary person.

The shy Tattoo Bro blushed and was extremely awkward under Xue Lingling's curious questioning.

Wu Xian then took the opportunity to ask Xu Lu about the two surviving Servants of the Evil God, “Have you interrogated any useful information?”

“Not yet,” Xu Lu shook her head helplessly. “You have to understand, the Servants of the Evil God's worship and loyalty to the Evil God are quite fanatical. Normal interrogation methods simply can't make them talk.”

“Are they really that stubborn?” Wu Xian secretly clicked his tongue.

Rather than loyalty, it was more like being mentally controlled by the Evil God.

“However, Great Master Lin seems to have thought of a feasible method,” Xu Lu said, her beautiful eyes sparkling.

“What method?”

Xu Lu excitedly said, “Great Master Lin's idea is to try to give those two some tattoo modifications, which might gradually suppress the Evil God's influence on them, thereby allowing them to regain consciousness.”

Wu Xian's eyes lit up. This was undoubtedly a good idea.

Weren't those two stubborn? They were perfect for Tattoo Bro's human experiments. Not only could it accelerate Tattoo Bro's research progress, but it could also, to a certain extent, suppress the Evil God's mental Gu on the two, killing two birds with one stone.

Beside them, Xue Lingling was still marveling at Zhang Mazi and the others, even trying a few moves with Zhang Mazi on the spot.

Afterward, she appeared calm on the surface, but her small arm was clearly trembling continuously.

“Interesting, young man, keep it up, I have high hopes for you!”

Xue Lingling left a word of encouragement, then pulled Wu Xian and left.

The moment they walked out of the temporary command center for demon extermination, her expression instantly lost control, wincing in pain, “Aiya ~ Tattoo Bro's technique has a lot of potential!”

“Are you alright?” Wu Xian asked with concern.

“Just a minor injury, it's nothing.”

Joking, they once again arrived at the familiar scroll copy hall.

With a clear goal, the two directly called over the staff responsible for the Holy Spirit Island copy and showed their special pass.

“Just open the Rank 4 copy; it's less trouble.”

Then they touched the Holy Spirit Island scroll and entered the copy.

“The Rank 4 Holy Spirit Island has four great guardian Sacred Spirits. Which one should we tackle first?” Xue Lingling was eager to try.

“Let's go one by one. It's best to clear them all.”

“Good idea.”

And so, led by Xue Lingling, they arrived at the tribe protected by the Blazing Fire Divine Bird.

The strength of the monsters in the Rank 4 Holy Spirit Island had clearly increased significantly, but the master and disciple had improved even more during this period.

Out of curiosity, Wu Xian directly sent out Yi Fire Serpent and Pivot Water Earthworm, the two Star Lords.

Facts proved that the two Star Lords had an extremely strong deterrent effect on these Sacred Spirit Descendants.

Feeling the Qi emanating from the two Star Lords, the Sacred Spirit Descendants looked as if they were doubting life itself. Many even knelt down on the spot, begging for forgiveness from the “Blazing Fire Divine Bird,” which left Wu Xian and Xue Lingling stunned.

“What's going on? They just knelt?” Xue Lingling found it hard to believe.

“It might be related to the power of the Blazing Fire Divine Bird?” Wu Xian speculated, explaining.

Strictly speaking, it should be the Vermilion Bird power contained within the Vermilion Bird's seven constellations.

The two, who had intended to go on a killing spree, felt a bit awkward to act when they saw the devout worship of the entire tribe of Sacred Spirit Descendants.

“Great Holy Spirit of Fire, please forgive your devout children.”

Several elders in the tribe prostrated themselves with every step, treating Yi Fire Serpent and Pivot Water Earthworm as divine beings.

“This…” Xue Lingling's expression was strange, “It's a bit hard to make a move, isn't it?”

After all, only by slaughtering the Sacred Spirit Descendants of this tribe could they force them to summon the Blazing Fire Divine Bird.

“No, something's wrong.”

Wu Xian's eyes flickered, and he immediately noticed a hint of abnormality.

Then, he saw tiny specks of Power Of Faith floating up from the densely packed Sacred Spirit Descendants below, converging onto the two Star Lords.

What's going on?

Is this the rhythm of “abandoning darkness for light”?

Yes, after seeing the two Star Lords, the Sacred Spirit Descendants below seemed to have abandoned the Blazing Fire Divine Bird. Looking at their devout and fervent gazes, it was as if they had found their true gods.

And while absorbing this “Power Of Faith,” the Rank of the two Star Lords also slowly increased, and the condensation of the Twenty-Eight Mansions divine scroll behind them also subtly improved.

At the same time, a restless and uneasy fluctuation erupted from the giant totem in the center of the tribe.

Clearly, the Blazing Fire Divine Bird could no longer sit still.

Caw—!

A “Phoenix” cry echoed through the sky. The Blazing Fire Divine Bird soared from the totem, its Qi violent, and immediately brought down divine punishment upon the tribe, seemingly to chastise its betraying believers.
