74: Should we add some annotations to describe the spirit's shock?

He opened it to read, instantly achieving enlightenment, and his favorable impression of Qiu Yuebai rose considerably.

"It seems Qiu Yuebai put a lot of thought into this. This Great Emperor Scripture is indeed easy to start practicing, and its power is considerable. It is a Top-tier Scripture with a high floor, a high ceiling, and low entry difficulty."

"I should give her some pointers after I leave."

Confirming that the Law within his body were beginning to condense steadily, Xu Jinhuan no longer delayed and stepped towards his next goal.

In the void, the Artifact Spirit's phantom saw Xu Jinhuan's movements and grew increasingly disdainful.

The reading speed, which Xu Jinhuan already considered slow,

was still too fast in the Artifact Spirit's eyes, entirely insufficient for comprehending a Great Emperor Scripture.

"Heh, he's just for show, as expected. Reading like this, skimming the surface and swallowing the whole date, he'd be lucky to grasp even the basics!"

It shook its head, increasingly convinced that this young man was just fooling around in the Hall of Inheritance.

But as time passed little by little, the Artifact Spirit suddenly and keenly noticed that a faint Power of Law had appeared in the Hall of Inheritance!

"Hmm, did a disciple successfully comprehend something?"

The Artifact Spirit started, immediately checked the situation inside the Hall of Inheritance, wanting to find the source of the Power of Law.

The Hall of Inheritance is a vital area of the Red Lotus Heavenly Palace. Disciples stream in and out daily, with many coming and going every moment.

At first, the Artifact Spirit did not think Xu Jinhuan had successfully comprehended it.

But the disciples in other areas had nothing to do with the Power of Law.

It was then that the Artifact Spirit realized with a shock that the Power of Law was actually emanating from Xu Jinhuan!

Moreover, that Power of Law was extremely pure,

and it was clearly the Origin Law of the Great Emperor Scripture he had just read!

The Artifact Spirit's phantom figure trembled violently, nearly falling out of the void, its eyes filled with disbelief:

"How is that possible?!"

"He actually mastered it?!"

A young man who hadn't even ignited his Divine Flame was actually able to grasp the essence of a Great Emperor Scripture and condense the Power of Law in such a short time?!

Just as the Artifact Spirit of the Hall of Inheritance was still astonished,

a change occurred in Xu Jinhuan again: a second type of Great Emperor Law emanated, which was the Flowing Light Law from the Honglian Flowing Light Scripture recommended by Qiu Yuebai.

At this moment, the Artifact Spirit felt its worldview being shattered.

"This young man has mastered more than one Great Emperor Technique?!"

"Furthermore, for someone in the Immortal Platform Realm, two Great Emperor Laws appearing inside his body completely defies common sense!"

How could a young man who hadn't even stepped into the Heavenly Being Realm possibly accommodate multiple Great Emperor Laws inside his body?!

At this moment, the Artifact Spirit of the Hall of Inheritance couldn't stay still.

It stared intently at Xu Jinhuan, wanting to see how far he could go.

Unknowingly, a day passed.

Xu Jinhuan slowly opened his eyes, sharp light burst forth from his pupils, and nine types of Power of Law circulated around his body.

Putting down the last Great Emperor Scripture in his hand and rubbing his eyes, he stood up contentedly and began taking stock of his gains.

"Within this one day, I have successfully mastered seven Great Emperor Scriptures and condensed nine types of Law."

If this cultivation speed were to spread, it would likely shock all the Cultivators across the Three Thousand Dao Provinces!

"Not only that, but I also extracted the essence from all seven scriptures and integrated them into the Great Celestial Immortal Technique, significantly boosting my Combat Power."

"This journey to the Red Lotus Heavenly Palace can be considered a complete success."

Taking a set of Brush and Ink in the Hall of Inheritance, Xu Jinhuan wielded the brush and finished in one go. His calligraphy flowed like dragons and snakes, completing the more than three hundred characters of the Azure Lotus Dao Severing Art in a single breath.

"Looking at the average IQ of the scripture comment section here, it doesn't seem very high. Should I write some notes for them, lest they fail to understand?"

There was nothing he could do; his Comprehension Ability was simply too high... Driven by this concern, Xu Jinhuan wrote over eight hundred pages of scripture, ensuring that even a three-year-old child could begin practicing this technique.

But he couldn't guarantee the Green Lotus Sword Intent.

Sword Intent belongs to an uncontrollable qualitative change. The threshold for cultivating Sword Intent differs for everyone based on their experiences and characteristics. Even someone with Comprehension Ability as strong as Xu Jinhuan could not fully deduce it.

"Hoo!—"

"A Great Emperor Scripture that any disciple can cultivate—the Red Lotus Heavenly Palace hasn't lost out."

Having finished all this, Xu Jinhuan put away the scripture and walked out of the Hall of Inheritance.

Stepping out the door, a pretty figure leaning against the wall and dozing caught his eye, warming Xu Jinhuan's heart.

It was Qiu Yuebai. It looked like she had waited here for Xu Jinhuan all day.

Moreover, afraid of missing him while cultivating, the girl simply stared fixedly at the exit, doing nothing else.

As a result, she wore herself out and ended up dozing off here.

Drool still lingered at the corner of her mouth, and her lips moved slightly, as if she were dreaming of something delicious... "Hmm? Miss Qiu, you're still here? Did you wait here all day?"

Xu Jinhuan walked up to the dozing Qiu Yuebai and said.

"Uh... yes, yes! Young Master Xu is perceptive, I have indeed been waiting here for a long time..."

Qiu Yuebai, whose sweet dream was interrupted, saw the person from her dream walk out. Her cheeks instantly flushed red, and her earlobes were burning hot as if scorched by fire.

"Miss Qiu, you are too thoughtful. Next time, you can just go back on your own. I remember the way."

Xu Jinhuan spoke reassuringly and thanked her.

"Mhm, thank you, Young Master Xu, for your understanding..."

Qiu Yuebai replied prettily, then walked out without a word, looking like a boiling kettle, constantly emitting steam.

Only after escorting Xu Jinhuan back to his residence did her legs give out, and she collapsed onto the ground, utterly exhausted.

"Wuwuwu, thankfully Young Master Xu didn't notice, or I would have been utterly disgraced..."

The great dream left no trace; the spring tide rushed late.

In her dream, she had just reached a crucial moment, and she had just... "No, I need to hurry back and change my Underpants..."

...Deep within the Palace Hall, the Artifact Spirit's voice trembled. Its originally cold, ruthless, and disdainful expression was now filled with intense shock.

"Seven scriptures! This fellow has learned all seven Great Emperor Scriptures of the Red Lotus Heavenly Palace!"

"And he has also condensed nine types of Law!"

Other Cultivators might not know what this meant, but as the quasi-emperor weapon Artifact Spirit that had guarded the Hall of Inheritance for tens of thousands of years, it knew better than anyone!

Every law condensed by a Great Emperor Scripture corresponds to a Great Emperor Path.

This young man was equivalent to simultaneously stepping onto nine Great Emperor Roads, and every path could lead to the end of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces!

If one day he cultivated those nine Law to perfection and stepped onto the Great Dao above the Law, how powerful would his Combat Power be?

The Artifact Spirit dared not imagine, nor could it imagine.

The most astonishing thing was that this did not seem to be this young man's limit!

"This person possesses terrifying Natural Talent! If he were a disciple of the Red Lotus Heavenly Palace, the entire Palace would likely rise in status because of him, instantly becoming a top-tier Dao Lineage in the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, or even the Endless Immortal Domain!"

The Artifact Spirit swallowed hard.

"Of course, there's also a high chance he might fall into the abyss and perish, because the Red Lotus Heavenly Palace cannot protect such a Prodigy."

Cultivation is not a simple game of talent; when cultivating outside, one must consider connections and background.

Moving fast doesn't guarantee success; only those who ultimately gain the recognition of the Heavens Heart Imprint are the true victors.

This young man's talent is truly too frightening.

He has reached the point where "the most outstanding tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind"!

The Artifact Spirit of the Hall of Inheritance guaranteed that once the Immortal Kings and Myths, who reside high above and overlook the Endless Immortal Domain for countless ages, found out, they would definitely intercept him at all costs and interrupt his path to growth!

The weak are prey to the strong; the strong take all.

This world is inherently so bloody and so dark.

Just like the Azure Lotus Great Emperor back then... As it thought, infinite killing intent surged in the Artifact Spirit's eyes, almost overwhelming, causing the entire Red Lotus Heavenly Palace to tremble.

But it immediately reacted, suppressing the fluctuation it had just caused, preventing any major impact.

"Right, I should first go find this generation's Palace Master 'doll' and ask about the situation, and check this young man's background!"

The Artifact Spirit's blurry figure dissipated.

When it reappeared, it was already deep inside the Red Lotus Heavenly Palace, in the sacred residence of the Palace Master... Just as he returned to his room, Xu Jinhuan frowned.

He felt a heaven-shaking killing intent, piercing heaven and earth, utterly terrifying!

Even though the target of that killing intent was not him, it nearly froze his Divine Soul along with it!

"What terrifying power, at least peak Great Saint!"

Xu Jinhuan looked in the direction the killing intent had emanated from and muttered softly.

The pressure this killing intent exerted on him was greater than that of the peak Great Saint Eighteenth Ancestor.

Of course, this was also because the Eighteenth Ancestor would not genuinely direct killing intent toward him.

"As expected, although the overall Comprehension Ability ability of the Red Lotus Heavenly Palace isn't great, it is still an Immortal Dao Lineage of the Holy Land level, possessing the confidence to endure forever."

The killing intent came quickly and vanished just as fast.

Xu Jinhuan didn't dwell on it too much; as an outsider, it was inappropriate for him to interfere in someone else's family matters.

He decided to look at the Ice Coffin in his mind instead.

Since returning from the Red Lotus Sea, Xu Jinhuan hadn't had time to carefully study the Ice Coffin on his Immortal Platform and the woman sleeping within it.

Now that things were more or less concluded, he finally had the leisure to thoroughly study these items.

His mind sank into his Sea of Consciousness, descending upon the Immortal Platform.

His Divine Soul, Xu Jinhuan, suddenly opened his eyes, looking at the nearly transparent Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Jade Coffin before him.

As he accumulated the devoured Green Lotus Sword Intent, the transparency of the Ice Coffin continuously increased. It was now clear like crystal, with a light transmittance of ninety-nine percent.

Beneath the transparent crystal, a stunning woman in a cyan dress came into view. Her black hair flowed like a waterfall, and she wore a simple, ancient cyan skirt, faintly exuding the majestic dignity of an Emperor who overlooked all beings.

Her face was breathtakingly beautiful: her eyebrows were like distant mountains painted black, her eyes like autumn waters flowing horizontally, her jade nose was high and delicate, her lips were like vermillion cinnabar, and her skin was fairer than snow, delicate, soft, and flawless.

Even in sleep, a trace of innate aloofness and coldness lingered between her brows.

She possessed a nobility of one who resided above the nine heavens and controlled the rise and fall of ten thousand Daos. Even lying still, she naturally emitted an aura of looking down on the ages and despising all heroes.

It was as if the moment she opened her eyes, she could once again command all heavens and exert pressure upon ten thousand realms!

The moment he saw her true face, Xu Jinhuan couldn't help but compare her to his Revered Master, Li Qingyue.

"Although overall she is still slightly inferior to Revered Master, she is definitely much prettier than Qingyao and the others. Especially the aloof, cold, and proud aura she possesses—it's enough to capture the hearts of 99.9% of men."

Unfortunately, Xu Jinhuan happened to be one of the 0.01% of men who remained unmoved.

He was single-mindedly devoted to the Dao; his heart only held cultivation!

"She can definitely trigger the Sign-in, and the reward will be extraordinary!"
