Yan Kong finally climbed up, coughed a few times, and left without saying a word.
He, Yan Kong, had never suffered such humiliation before. He would definitely remember this debt.
Leng Ning walked to Qin Wentian's side, her beautiful eyes unblinking as she stared at Qin Wentian. The corners of her lips curled up in a smile, and upon seeing the carefree expression on Qin Wentian's face, she giggled, "Leng Ning pays her respects to Grandmaster Divine Inscriptionist."
Qin Wentian couldn't help but knock her head lightly upon seeing her mischievous expression. "Now you know I didn't lie to you, right?"
"Yes, you didn't lie to me. It's all my fault, I shouldn't have doubted a Grandmaster like you." Leng Ning smiled. "However, who would have thought that you were so powerful? Can't you show off a little?"
"Don't tell me you want me to angrily inscribe a third-ranked Divine Inscription in front of you and flaunt my prowess?" Qin Wentian shrugged. Upon hearing Qin Wentian's words, Leng Ning couldn't help but giggle. Was it possible that Qin Wentian would rush over and inscribe a third-ranked Divine Inscription in front of her to flaunt? Wasn't that a little too arrogant?
"Even if what you said is right, it's all my fault." Leng Ning glared at Qin Wentian, yet she was extremely happy in her heart. This arrogant fellow was actually a third-ranked Divine Inscriptionist. Even now, she couldn't help but feel her heart pounding with disbelief. However, as she recalled the ambiguous words she had said to Qin Wentian, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
"Alright, you can return first, I still have some matters to attend to." Qin Wentian spoke as he walked over to Bailu Yi's side. Bailu Yi nodded to Qin Wentian as she replied in a low voice, "Thank you."
Earlier, Qin Wentian had beaten up Yan Kong because of her.
"This happened because of me. It's my duty to make you suffer a bad reputation." Qin Wentian didn't seem to mind it at all. The two of them walked side by side into the White Deer Institute.
"You have to be more careful in the future, Yan Kong will definitely bear a grudge against you." A hint of worry flashed in Bailu Yi's eyes. How could Yan Kong let go of such humiliation?
"Yes, I will." Qin Wentian nodded his head. This was also the reason why he didn't cripple or kill Yan Kong. If he killed or crippled Yan Kong, the Yan Clan would definitely not let this matter rest. However, he only wanted to beat Yan Kong up a little. He didn't believe that Yan Kong would have the face to go back and look for the elders of the Yan Clan. If he was beaten up by someone of the same generation, Yan Kong wouldn't be able to lift his head high in the Yan Clan in the future.
Leng Ning stared at the back of the two of them in a daze. Among the younger generation of the White Deer Institute, Bailu Yi was the most outstanding genius, Qin Wentian. She was as aloof as frost, and as gentle as the clouds and wind, she was the genius Divine Inscriptionist Qin Wentian. The two of them walking together made Leng Ning feel a sense of loneliness.
"What am I thinking about?" Leng Ning shook her head. She couldn't possibly want to marry that 'arrogant' fellow, right?
Bailu Yi brought Qin Wentian to the White Deer Cavern. This was also the place where he first entered the White Deer Institute. However, they only went to the outermost layer of the cavern walls, as well as the stone tablets for the inscription test. They didn't enter the depths of the cavern.
And now, Bailu Yi personally led him into the depths of the cavern. Within the first cavern dwelling, there were many stone walls and stone tablets. Densely packed Divine Inscriptions were inscribed on the stone walls, dazzling the eyes. As for the Divine Inscriptions on the stone tablets, they were even more intricate and exquisite. Not only that, the Divine Inscriptions were inscribed by Grandmasters.
"The number of Divine Inscriptions here is the highest, and many of them were inscribed by the elders of the White Deer Institute. As long as you can comprehend and control these Divine Inscriptions, you would definitely be able to become a peak-level Divine Inscriptionist. At the very least, you wouldn't lack Divine Inscriptions when forging weapons," Bailu Yi explained to Qin Wentian. After which, she led Qin Wentian deeper into the cavern.
The second cavern was filled with gigantic stone walls, and on the stone walls, there were complete diagrams of Divine Inscriptions engraved. It was as though two people were battling using Divine Inscriptions. Every stone wall was like a battle diagram of Divine Inscriptions.
Qin Wentian arrived in front of a stone rampart as he stared at the divine inscriptions on it. Abruptly, he only felt a surge of destructive energy gushing towards him. Those divine inscriptions seemed as though they wanted to leap out from the stone rampart.
"How exquisite." Qin Wentian's heart trembled.
"Let's continue to the front." Bailu Yi spoke to Qin Wentian as they walked towards the third cavern dwelling. This cavern dwelling was even larger, and Qin Wentian could sense that the Divine Inscriptions here were filled with a mysterious aura. Abruptly, Qin Wentian halted his steps. He could sense that the space around him had changed. It was as though he was no longer in the cavern dwelling. Instead, there was a gust of wind in the air, and each gust of wind was as sharp as a blade.
"The Dao of Divine Inscriptions." Qin Wentian mused. He closed his eyes and used his heart to sense the Divine Inscriptions. He could see many Divine Inscriptions that seemed to have a life of their own. They danced unceasingly, transforming into a formation.
A hand abruptly appeared, tapping on one of the whirlpools of Divine Inscriptions. A crisp sound rang out as the wind calmed down. Qin Wentian saw Bailu Yi appearing before him. She smiled at him, "How do you feel?"
"You're so at ease to bring me here?" Qin Wentian laughed. To Divine Inscriptionists, this White Deer Cavern was definitely a treasure trove.
"If we want to develop the Dao of Divine Inscriptions, just relying on the strength of the White Deer Institute isn't enough. Many of the Divine Inscriptions here were created by the previous generations of the White Deer Institute." Bailu Yi laughed. "It's not good to be stingy. Not only that, given your talent in the Dao of Divine Inscriptions, I believe that we can mutually benefit each other."
"There's still the last cavern dwelling. Follow my footsteps, or we'll be trapped in another formation." Bailu Yi led the way as Qin Wentian stepped into the fourth cavern dwelling. This cavern dwelling was similarly gigantic, and there were many Puppets within. There were humanoid Puppets, Divine Weapon Puppets, beast-type Puppets, all sorts of Puppets.
"Seems like I'll have to stay in the White Deer Institute in the future. Don't look down on me," Qin Wentian laughed. The Divine Inscriptions here had opened up a huge door for him.
"As long as you're willing, I'll provide food and drinks for you," Bailu Yi laughed.
"I'll remember this, don't regret it," Qin Wentian stared at Bailu Yi's pure and innocent countenance, feeling that this cold beauty was getting more and more adorable.
What made Bailu Yi surprised was that she didn't expect Qin Wentian's words to be true. From that day onwards, Qin Wentian didn't even take half a step out of the White Deer Cavern. Other than cultivating, all he did was research on the Dao of Divine Inscriptions. This caused Bailu Yi to be deeply moved. Initially, she had always thought that she was very hardworking, but Qin Wentian was even more hardworking than her, even crazier than her. Once he immersed himself in the Dao of Divine Inscriptions, it would be hard for him to extricate himself.
Sometimes, Bailu Yi would stand behind him for half a day, yet he wouldn't even glance at her. This caused Bailu Yi to feel as though she had suffered a huge blow. She had never received such cold treatment before. In the past, who didn't want to stay by her side?
But at the same time, Bailu Yi couldn't help but sigh. No one was born a genius. Even if they were talented, they still had to rely on their own hard work and hard work to achieve the title of a true genius. Among the major characters she had heard of before, which one of them didn't have a resolute heart, as well as a strong will to cultivate?
Sitting beside Qin Wentian, Bailu Yi stared at Qin Wentian who was in a trance. It was as though she could see a peerless genius walking on the path of ascension.
Qin Wentian's hard work also influenced Bailu Yi. She watched as Qin Wentian improved day by day. Now, Qin Wentian could actually fight against her head-on in the Dao of Divine Inscriptions without being at a disadvantage.
This caused Bailu Yi to put in even more effort in her cultivation.
"What are you thinking about again? Eat some fruits." In the fourth cavern, Bailu Yi noticed that Qin Wentian was deep in thought. She placed a plate of fruits in front of Qin Wentian.
"The Dao of Puppets is too mystical." Qin Wentian inclined his head and saw a pure and beautiful countenance. His mood couldn't help but improve as he tossed the fruit into his mouth.
"Of course," Bailu Yi smiled as she sat opposite Qin Wentian. "After so many days, have you gained any insights?"
"Do you want to know?" Qin Wentian laughed. Bailu Yi nodded, "Of course."
"What do you think a Puppet is?" Qin Wentian asked.
"A Puppet is a Puppet, what else is there?" Bailu Yi froze.
"In my opinion, a Puppet is a Divine Weapon." Qin Wentian laughed, "Puppets can be categorized into humanoid Puppets, Divine Weapon Puppets, Beast Puppets, and so on. Other than some evil cultivators who use real humans to create Puppets, the other Puppets are all created from the outer shell of a Divine Weapon. Divine Inscriptions are engraved on the outer shell, and the Divine Weapon is powered by Yuan Meteor Stones. What's the difference between a Puppet and a Divine Weapon?"
"A Puppet is just a complicated Divine Weapon. For a Divine Weapon with inscriptions, it can convert the Astral Energy within Yuan Meteor Stones into the power of the Puppet, and the power it can unleash is derived from the materials it was created from. Isn't this a unique characteristic of a Divine Weapon? The higher the grade of the materials used to create a Divine Weapon, the more powerful the Divine Inscriptions engraved on it, and the higher the grade of the Divine Weapon."
"It's just that a Puppet is a humanoid Divine Weapon, and the amount of power it can unleash is much higher. However, the cost of creating one is also much higher," Qin Wentian smiled.
Bailu Yi pondered for a moment before nodding her head, "I didn't think of it that way, but from what you've said, the disparity is indeed not that great."
"The Creator is truly marvelous. Have you ever thought that the meridians of the human body have the same characteristics as Divine Inscriptions? The creation of Divine Weapons and Puppets requires Divine Inscriptions to be engraved on the meridians, just like the Arterial Circulation that we cultivate, allowing our innate techniques to be unleashed and unleash tyrannical power. Think about it, wouldn't the fusion of innate techniques and Arterial Circulation be similar to the Divine Inscriptions engraved on Divine Weapons and Puppets?"
Qin Wentian continued, "Not only that, for those of us who have a forging-type Astral Soul, our greatest advantage is that we can create Divine Inscriptions within our bodies and unleash them at will. In that case, if every single drop of Astral Energy is formed from Divine Inscriptions, would there still be a need for us to create Divine Inscriptions? Astral Energy is Divine Inscriptions. If that's the case, doesn't that mean that everyone is an innate weaponsmith? "
Qin Wentian's calm words had a huge impact on Bailu Yi. She had only followed the teachings of her elders, and had never thought about it so deeply before. This was also the reason why she hoped to learn Divine Inscriptions from other outstanding youths.
Everyone had their own unique views and insights on cultivation, but her experience was all taught by her elders. Hence, her understanding of Divine Inscriptions was the same as that of her elders, and there was no way for her to have a clash of ideas.
Qin Wentian had given her a huge impact on her thinking.
Bailu Yi's eyes shone with a brilliant light as she stared at Qin Wentian. After which, she smiled, "Thank you."
"I hope my insights will be of some help to you." Qin Wentian laughed. This was something he should do.
"There's a commotion outside, let's go out and take a look." At this moment, Bailu Yi stood up and walked out. Qin Wentian followed behind her as they exited the White Deer Cavern. Outside the cavern, an ethereal silhouette appeared. Her face was veiled with a green veil, resembling a celestial maiden. It seemed that she wanted to enter the White Deer Cavern, but was obstructed by someone.
"What's the matter?" Qin Wentian asked in a low voice as he saw Qing 'er.
Qing 'er saw Qin Wentian, and her melodious voice drifted out, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and I was a little worried. I wanted to go in and take a look."
Qin Wentian froze when he heard Qing 'er's melodious voice. He felt moved in his heart. So it turned out that this Cold lass had never left his side.
"Since you're fine, I'll take my leave." Qing 'er turned and walked out, disappearing from Qin Wentian's sight as though she had never appeared before!
