245: Chapter 244 Great Sun Burning Heaven Technique

" The nights in the Shenyun Realm are not safe? What does the Great Hall Master mean by that? "

After hearing the Great Hall Master's words, Xia Jin and Marquis Chu could not help but look at each other, both seeing a trace of confusion in the other's eyes.

However, given the Great Hall Master's strength and status, it was impossible for him to deceive them over such a trivial matter.

If this existence could personally utter the words "not safe," then the nights in the Shenyun Realm likely truly concealed some unimaginable danger.

" Junior Brother Xia, let's quickly catch up with the Great Hall Master. " Marquis Chu patted Xia Jin on the shoulder and then, with somewhat heavy steps, hurried to catch up.

Xia Jin naturally dared not dally and soon caught up to the side of the Great Hall Master.

In less than half a cup of tea's time, the three arrived before the city. Of course, this was only because the Great Hall Master was accommodating Marquis Chu and Xia Jin; otherwise, with his strength, this distance would have been covered in mere breaths.

" Yinsha City!? Could it be that the Great Hall Master is the City Lord of this Yinsha City!?" Looking at the three sweeping, vigorous characters above the city gate, Xia Jin looked suspiciously at the Great Hall Master walking in front of him.

However, Xia Jin quickly confirmed his guess.

The two rows of guards standing at the city gate all bowed in unison upon seeing the Great Hall Master approach, shouting in unison, "City Lord!"

" In half an hour, the sky will darken. Be sure to close the city gates in time!!"

The Great Hall Master nodded slightly at the guards, gave them careful instructions, and then led Xia Jin and Marquis Chu directly into the city.

The three traveled along the way and soon arrived inside the City Lord's Mansion.

" Sit. "

The Great Hall Master took his seat at the head of the table first, then raised his hand to point to the chairs on either side.

As soon as Xia Jin sat down, he saw Marquis Chu standing up from the side, asking with a look of confusion, "Great Hall Master, I didn't expect you to be the City Lord of this Yinsha City. In that case, our Temple can be considered to have a true Foundation in this Shenyun Realm."

Looking at the seemingly excited Marquis Chu, a wry smile flashed across the Great Hall Master's face.

" A true Foundation in this Shenyun Realm?" He put down his teacup and sighed slowly. "Do you know, although I am the City Lord of this Yinsha City, the Shenyun Realm is vast. My Yinsha City is nothing in the entire Shenyun Realm. Even in this Fengyuan Prefecture of the Shenyun Realm's nine great continents, it is merely a border town."

" As such, it is too early to call it a Foundation; at best, it is just a foothold."

A border town?

Marquis Chu and Xia Jin looked at each other, their hearts involuntarily trembling.

This Yinsha City was actually just a border town in Fengyuan Prefecture? Then what kind of scene must the true core region of the Shenyun Realm be like?

The Great Hall Master seemed to see the confusion in their hearts but did not explain further. He raised his hand and pointed gently at a wooden shelf nearby.

" Swoosh! Swoosh! "

Two streaks of light flashed, and two Jade Slips flew steadily into the hands of Xia Jin and Marquis Chu.

" You two are new here. This contains some information about the Shenyun Realm. Take advantage of the free time in the next few days to familiarize yourselves with it and learn everything you should know. In three days, I will arrange tasks for you both. "

" Understood!" Xia Jin and Marquis Chu quickly stood up, cupping their fists and bowing respectfully.

The Great Hall Master waved his hand.

Soon, Xia Jin and Marquis Chu left the main hall and followed a maid to the guest rooms in the side hall.

" These two side rooms have been prepared for you, my lords. If you need anything, just instruct this servant." After the maid respectfully gave these instructions, she withdrew.

Xia Jin did not stand on ceremony; he chose one of the rooms and walked inside.

" I am actually quite curious, what exactly is recorded in this Jade Slip? Could it be that the Shenyun Realm hides some great secret!?"

After walking directly to the bed and sitting down, Xia Jin stared suspiciously at the Jade Slip in his hand. After a long while, he gathered his focus and slowly allowed his Divine Sense to seep into the Jade Slip.

In an instant, a massive amount of information flooded into his mind like a tide, continuing for a quarter of an hour.

Only then did he slowly withdraw his Divine Sense and open his eyes.

However, Xia Jin's expression was no longer as relaxed as it had been at the beginning, turning somewhat grim instead.

" Unexpectedly..." Xia Jin's voice carried a hint of complexity, "In this Shenyun Realm, there is also constant competition for resources, just like in the secular world before. And... it is far more ruthless than the people in the secular world."

The Jade Slip recorded it very clearly.

The Shenyun Realm is a place where many top human Cultivators exist. Although the Cultivation resources are far richer than in the Lower Realm, the number of Cultivators is equally massive.

In order to compete for Spiritual Veins, mineral deposits, and blessed lands, the struggles between major forces have never ceased.

Killing people to seize treasures, exterminating sects, and slaughtering cities are all commonplace here.

But in the eyes of the supreme human existences, this situation is tacitly approved. After all, in their view, this is just like raising Gu; a million ordinary human Cultivators are not as important as the birth of one supreme existence.

Xia Jin lowered his head to look at the Jade Slip in his hand and was silent for a moment.

Then, he tightened his fingers.

" Snap! "

The Jade Slip shattered in response, turning directly into powder.

He did not need this thing anymore.

What needed to be remembered was already stored in his mind.

Xia Jin closed his eyes and called out in his mind in a deep voice.

" System, extract the mission reward. "

[ Ding-dong! Congratulations to the Host, preparing to extract your mission reward: Great Sun Burning Heaven Technique (Entry-Level), 38,000 years of Cultivation. ]

The familiar System notification sounded in his mind, and immediately after, a vast torrent of information, accompanied by majestic spiritual power, exploded within his body.

Deep within Xia Jin's Divine Soul, a scroll of a Cultivation Technique slowly unfolded.

The golden characters engraved on it were as brilliant as stars, and every single character contained mysterious Dao charm.

Those characters seemed to sense Xia Jin's presence; they detached from the parchment one by one and floated before his Divine Soul.

Xia Jin's Divine Soul stared at the Cultivation Technique, his gaze falling on the first few lines, and his pupils suddenly dilated.

[ Great Sun Burning Heaven Technique ]

[ Introduction: When this technique is Cultivated to Perfection, one can even use the heavens and earth as a furnace, and the sun and moon as fire, capable of burning the heavens and boiling the seas, destroying the world and Rebirth. This method is too domineering; the practitioner must have great perseverance and great Opportunity, otherwise it is very easy to burn oneself to death and suffer Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering. ]

" Terrifying. This is definitely not a Cultivation Technique that an ordinary powerhouse could create... Products from the System are truly extraordinary. "

Xia Jin's Divine Soul could not help but exclaim, his voice filled with shock.

His Divine Soul stared at the characters before him for a long time. After he completely calmed his mood, a look of suspicion suddenly flashed in his eyes.

" According to this, if this peerless Cultivation Technique is supported by a profound Realm... could it eventually burn and destroy this entire Shenyun Realm? "

Once this thought emerged, even he felt it was somewhat insane.

What kind of place is the Shenyun Realm? If it were really so easily destroyed, how could it support such a massive number of powerful existences fighting wantonly here?

But the description of the "Great Sun Burning Heaven Technique" was too terrifying for him not to think in this direction.

Shaking his head, Xia Jin temporarily suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart, and his eyes became incomparably firm once again.

Regardless of what it can burn and destroy, the more powerful this Cultivation Technique is, the more beneficial it is to himself.

If he could eventually stand at the pinnacle of this Shenyun Realm where strength is respected, perhaps in the future, he could also become a chess player in the struggle against the foreign races.

" System, spend 8,000 years of Cultivation to deduce this 'Great Sun Burning Heaven Technique'! "

Xia Jin glanced at the conditions required to satisfy the Great Perfection of the "Great Sun Burning Heaven Technique" and ordered in his mind without hesitation.

[ Ding! Received host instruction, currently consuming 8,000 years of Cultivation to deduce the 'Great Sun Burning Heaven Technique'... Deduction begins! ]
