Yuan Gaohan's face alternated between green and white, extremely conflicted.
No matter what, he could not give up on his eight-layered starlight soul body, otherwise his cultivation would fall back to the eighth rank, no matter what, he could not accept it. But divulging the profound meaning of the ancient scripture was also a great crime, once discovered by the Sacred Region, even he could not bear the responsibility.
Li Yunxiao's heart moved, as if he had guessed his difficulties, probing: "Could it be that the higher-ups …"
Yuan Gaohan's eyes revealed fear, his heart extremely heavy, he gritted his teeth and said: "State another condition, I can agree to anything else. Even if it's a ninth rank profound artifact, I can … "
His words suddenly stopped, only to see Li Yunxiao take out a small bell and play with it in his hand. With his eyes, naturally, he could see that it was a ninth rank profound artifact, and not an ordinary ninth rank profound artifact!
"This, this bell …"
Yuan Gaohan's mouth opened wide, both eyes emitting light.
Li Yunxiao casually kept it and said: "What bell? Continue negotiating, why did you say ninth rank profound artifact just now? "
Yuan Gaohan's throat was dry, he shook his head and said sadly: "Nothing …" He was silent for a while, finally made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said: "I can teach you the profound meaning of one word, but you must swear not to teach it to anyone else!"
"Only one?"
A layer of anger appeared on Li Yunxiao's face. He snorted and said, "I've already given you this golden soul slave that is linked to my life, yet you actually recite an ancient scripture to me. Do you have any shame? Anyway, I don't want to live without my soul slave, let's all die together! "
Yuan Gaohan was stunned speechless. In his opinion, revealing the profound meaning of an ancient scripture was already a great crime, yet the other party did not care about it at all. But thinking about it, his words made sense. If a member of the Soul Devouring Race lost his soul slave, it would be no different from him falling to the eighth rank.
"Then … then two …"
Yuan Gaohan gathered his courage, stretched out two fingers, his arm trembling.
"Twenty!"
Li Yunxiao blurted out with a resolute expression. He shouted coldly, "Not one less!"
"Two, twenty!"
Yuan Gaohan's eyes almost popped out as he roared, "I know far less than twenty. You're too much! What do you think this is? Each of the scriptures passed down from ancient times contains its own rules. If you can study one or two of them in your lifetime, you will benefit immensely! "
Li Yunxiao said coldly, "Then how many do you know?"
Yuan Gaohan was furious. He snorted and said, "It's none of your business how many I know! Three at most, no more. Otherwise, we'll all die together! "
He was so angry that smoke was rising from his body. His soul body flickered incessantly as it was being consumed rapidly.
Li Yunxiao saw that he was almost at his limit, so he said awkwardly, "Alright, three it is. What a loss! If I wasn't forced into a dead end, I wouldn't have agreed! "
He currently only grasped a total of seven. Including these three, it was only ten. But his understanding of these scriptures should be able to reach a whole new level.
And Yuan Gaohan himself only grasped four and a half. The fifth one was still blurry and he seemed to understand it. If he knew that Li Yunxiao already grasped seven, he would probably explode and kill him.
"Give me the soul slave first!"
Seemingly afraid that Li Yunxiao would go back on his word, Yuan Gaohan insisted on getting the soul slave first. His attitude was extremely firm and he refused to give in.
Li Yunxiao was not afraid that he would go back on his word. He directly handed the Soul Devouring Gonfalon to him and said, "Without the soul slave, I can't cultivate this cultivation method in the future. This Soul Devouring Gonfalon is also useless. I'll give it to you."
"Humph, who wants your Soul Devouring Gonfalon!"
Yuan Gaohan took it and checked it with his divine sense. It was indeed a golden soul slave. Moreover, it was full of soul power. It was very good. Only then did he feel relieved.
Looking at Li Yunxiao's calm expression, he felt a little strange and couldn't help but ask, "After losing the Soul Devouring Gonfalon, how do you plan to cultivate? Do you take the cultivation method of soul fusion? That should be the best choice. "
Li Yunxiao said impatiently, "It's none of your business! Take the thing and hurry up and teach me the three ancient scriptures now! "
Yuan Gaohan nodded slightly. He was also a man of his word. He carefully kept the Soul Devouring Gonfalon and revealed a helpless expression. He let out a few long sighs and then began to explain.
"The origin of the ancient scriptures can no longer be investigated. Because their shape is like a tadpole and when they emit the power of rules, they shine with golden light. Therefore, many places are also called the Tadpole Golden Scripture. The number of existing scriptures is very limited and very few people have the ability to study them. "
Li Yunxiao also knew this basic knowledge, but he didn't interrupt him this time. Instead, he let him continue bit by bit.
Yuan Gaohan continued, "Actually, the Sanctuary and the Soul Transformation Sea Realm have been doing statistics on these words for a long time and have also studied them. But it's a pity that even if there are alchemists who can master some of these words, there is no good way to pass it down. In other words, these words can't exist in the world. Therefore, even the Sanctuary and the Soul Transformation Sea Realm don't really master many of them. "
Li Yunxiao suddenly asked, "Then how many of these words are there in total? Do you have statistics? "
Yuan Gaohan frowned and thought for a while before saying, "There might be thousands of them."
"Thousands of them!"
Li Yunxiao was shocked and almost jumped up in shock. He said in disbelief, "How can there be so many?" The power of rules contained in these words was very powerful. Being able to learn a few was already a great benefit. If he could master thousands of them, then …
He didn't even dare to imagine it.
Yuan Gaohan also had a bitter smile on his face. He saw through his thoughts and shook his head. "Don't think about it. These things shouldn't exist in the world in the first place. They aren't something that ordinary people like us can covet."
Li Yunxiao didn't say anything. The few scriptures he had learned added up to several hundred words. Many of them were repeated. It seemed that there should be many other divine arts in this world. If he wanted to completely understand them, he didn't know if he could do it in this lifetime.
Yuan Gaohan composed himself and said, "Next, I'm going to teach you three ancient scriptures. Watch carefully. I'll only explain the main points once and demonstrate it once. I said I would teach you, but I didn't guarantee that I would definitely teach you. Perhaps with your talent, it's very possible that you won't be able to learn them in your lifetime. "
After he finished speaking, he was stunned for a moment. Thinking of Li Yunxiao's talent, he didn't even believe his own words.
Li Yunxiao didn't answer. Instead, he raised his mind to the most concentrated state and started to listen to Yuan Gaohan's explanation. This was the first time he was being taught this kind of thing. In the past, he had always comprehended it himself. There was still a certain difference between the two.
Yuan Gaohan had read through many materials of predecessors in the Divine Sanctuary. He had great advantages and insights in all aspects of understanding. Li Yunxiao was overjoyed as he listened. He constantly raised all kinds of questions. Yuan Gaohan was stunned and even more shocked.
Many questions that Yuan Gaohan himself didn't think of were raised by Li Yunxiao. He also sank into deep thought. He talked and listened. At first, it was just him explaining alone. Now, it became the two of them discussing.
Yuan Gaohan also slowly adapted from the initial shock. They discussed each other like two old friends. Both of them benefited greatly. Initially, he only had a smattering of knowledge about the five scriptures, but through the continuous conversations, he received great revelations and became much clearer.
Li Yunxiao's gains were even greater. Those three characters seemed to be an extremely common existence. They had appeared in the few Shen Methodologies that he had seen before. Immediately, his understanding of the few Shen Methodologies deepened. All kinds of doubts were suddenly cleared up. His mind gradually became clear.
Even though it was only three characters, the research that was derived from it was endless. The two of them sat in the middle of the yellow sand. They talked and comprehended. Finally, when they completely understood those three characters, Yuan Gaohan wasn't willing to say anything more. Even though he had also benefited greatly. But when he thought of how he had recklessly imparted the profound meaning of the ancient scriptures, he still felt a lingering fear.
When Li Yunxiao saw that he really couldn't dig anything out of it, he finally gave up. He sat down cross-legged and entered into comprehension. After an unknown period of time, he finally comprehended everything he had learned.
Yuan Gaohan was secretly shocked as he watched from the side, especially the look of enlightenment on Li Yunxiao's face, which made him feel even more terrified. It took him more than ten years to learn these three characters!
He forcefully suppressed the fear in his heart and said, "Young man, although I don't know what your name is, I know that you're a very good person. But are you willing to join the Sanctum? I can guarantee that as long as you are willing, the resources you obtain will be several times, dozens of times, or even hundreds of times greater than the Soul Devouring Race! "
He wanted to rope in such a monstrous talent, and he even wanted to rope him in at all costs. Otherwise, this lad would be too terrifying, and in a few decades, the whole Heavenly Martial Arts Realm would have to bow down before him.
Li Yunxiao smiled in satisfaction, "Let's leave this damned place first. If we can't get out of here, then everything will be for naught."
Yuan Gaohan didn't know whether he was being perfunctory or not, so he continued, "Moreover, your Soul Devouring Gonfalon will be destroyed soon. If you stay in the Soul Devouring Race, you won't be able to practice to the highest level. As long as you follow me to the Sanctum, there will be many cultivation methods more powerful than Soul Fighting Techniques waiting for you to choose! "
"Okay, I will think about it seriously. Old Yuan, let's start breaking the formation. "
Li Yunxiao urged. He didn't look like he wanted to think about it at all.
Yuan Gaohan sighed slightly. If such a talent couldn't be used by the Sanctum, then he couldn't become an enemy. At the crucial moment, it was necessary to eliminate him directly.
Although the Sanctum ruled the world on the surface, it did all kinds of shady things in the dark.
He said regretfully, "I hope you can think about it carefully."
After he spoke, Yuan Gaohan took out the Soul Devouring Gonfalon, and the fingers of his right hand changed continuously, putting runes into it. After a short while, the Soul Devouring Gonfalon shone brightly. He shouted loudly and flew into the sky, fluttering in the wind.
Li Yunxiao's pupils shrank slightly. A moment ago, what Yuan Gaohan had used was the Soul Devouring Gonfalon. It seemed like he had done a lot of research on the Soul Devouring Race's techniques.
