Instead of replying to Zhang Xuan's question, the young man walked up to the Light-shelled Beetle and examined it closely.
His divination ability had already reached the level of 8-star, and there were many things that he could divine accurately. He had divined this Light-shelled Beetle several times in the past, and each time, he had predicted that it would die of old age. Why would it suddenly explode just like that?
The so-called long life of a hundred years was just an empty phrase. Of course, it was not what the other party had said. Today, it was exactly one hundred years!
Even if that was the case, it couldn't possibly explode into dust right after speaking those words.
The young man stood on the spot for a moment, but he was still unable to make sense of what was going on. In the end, he decided not to think too much about it and continued leading the duo forward.
Not too long later, they arrived at a room. Before they could knock on the door, a voice sounded from within, "Come in!"
Following which, the door slowly opened.
Zhang Xuan looked in and saw an old man seated at the very center of the room. A young man was standing by the side. He was none other than the person they were looking for, Zhang Chun!
At this moment, his injuries had already healed, and his aura was much purer than before. It seemed like even though he had been pummeled previously, he had still managed to raise his cultivation significantly. This could be considered as a blessing in disguise.
"It's you?"
Upon seeing that the person who had entered was Zhang Xuan, Zhang Chun's face immediately turned livid.
To think that he, the prodigy of the Zhang clan, would be pummeled by an unknown fellow with the help of his tamed beast, nearly dying in the canyon. The humiliation he felt was so great that he was about to explode.
However, a thought suddenly surfaced in his mind, and he hurriedly turned around and asked doubtfully, "Elder Feng, the esteemed guest you spoke of … could it be him?"
Just a moment ago, when Elder Feng instructed his students to welcome the esteemed guest, he had thought that the guest would be a powerful expert. Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that it would be this fellow!
A mere Leaving Aperture realm pinnacle cultivator who had managed to tame the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast and act so arrogantly? Even if that was the case, there was no reason for him to be treated in such a manner by the esteemed Elder Feng!
"That's right!" Elder Feng stood up and assessed Zhang Xuan carefully, and his eyes lit up in excitement. "It's indeed the Discarnate Constitution of Divination!"
"Discarnate Constitution of Divination?" Zhang Xuan was perplexed.
Even though the Library of Heaven's Path was unable to discern his exact condition, after reading so many books, he knew that there were many unique constitutions that didn't belong to any of them.
In other words, they were just ordinary people who couldn't be more ordinary!
Unlike Zhao Ya and Wei Ruyan, who could activate their constitutions and advance quickly.
What was the Divination Physique? I've never heard of it before.
If he really had some kind of special constitution, his progress wouldn't have been so slow. He couldn't even beat his students and girlfriend.
"The number of Dayan is forty-nine, one more is void, and you have that 'void' constitution."
Stroking his beard, Elder Feng explained with a smile, "In layman's terms, it's impossible to determine your fate and direction through divination!"
Before Zhang Xuan could understand what was going on, the young man by his side leaped in shock, and disbelief was written all over his face.
"Teacher, does such a physique really exist?"
"In the past, I also thought that it was just a legend. It was only when I was entrusted by someone that I realized that not only do they exist, there are actually a few of them …"
Elder Feng shook his head, seemingly unwilling to dwell on this matter any further. "If you don't believe me, you can try divining it."
"This …" The young man was taken aback. He flicked his wrist and took out three copper coins. After a moment of contemplation, he tossed them over lightly.
The copper coins fell to the ground and began spinning. However, before they could fully form the divinatory diagrams, a loud 'kacha! Kacha! 'sounded, and a crack appeared on the copper coins.
Following which, just like the Light-shelled Beetle, they exploded with a loud 'peng!'.
The young man's face paled, and as if he had suffered a heavy blow, he staggered several steps backward. A mouthful of blood flowed from the corner of his lips, and his eyes were filled with disbelief and horror.
The young man before him was clearly right before his eyes, but when he tried to use the art of divination, he realized that the young man was nothing.
He couldn't deduce the young man's origin at all.
"How is it?"
Elder Feng asked, seemingly expecting this result.
"I can't deduce it …"
The young man took a few deep breaths to alleviate his injuries before replying with gritted teeth.
"Indeed, I can't deduce it at all! That's because he's nothing. It's not just his fate, he can't even deduce the things that he has done in the past and the direction that he will advance in the future! "
Elder Feng said.
"This …"
The young man widened his eyes in shock. He finally understood why his teacher wanted to meet the young man before him personally.
The Divination Constitution was the most suitable constitution to become a seer. Even in history, there had only been a handful of people who possessed it. Who could have thought that the young man before him would actually possess such a constitution?
"You can't deduce his origin?"
Hearing the conversation between the two, Zhang Xuan frowned. However, it didn't take long for him to come to a realization.
If he wasn't mistaken, the reason why he couldn't be divined was due to the existence of the Library of Heaven's Path.
The Library of Heaven's Path was a manifestation of the heavens, so it shouldn't be too difficult for one to deceive the heavens.
In other words, he didn't possess the Divination Constitution at all.
"Indeed. Being unable to deduce one's origin is equivalent to being trapped in a loophole in the workings of the heavens. If such a person were to become a seer, he would be able to deduce the future without suffering any backlash, and his future would be limitless!"
Elder Feng said with glowing eyes.
The act of a seer divining the future was equivalent to divulging the secrets of the heavens. As such, they would be punished by the heavens. It was for this reason that the most powerful seers didn't have good endings.
If it was just a small matter, one might be able to avoid being affected by it with his strength and eye of discernment. However, if it was a major matter, he would be severely injured, and in the end, he would be reduced to smithereens.
As such, while seers might appear to be powerful and mysterious, they were actually prying into the secrets of the heavens, making them even more dangerous than other occupations.
The Divination Constitution was equivalent to having a loophole in the body. Even the heavens were unable to deduce its existence.
Thus, it was the most suitable constitution for seers.
"I didn't notice it before, but Zhang Chun asked me to divine your teacher and background," Elder Feng said.
Zhang Chun's face reddened, and he felt so stifled that he could explode on the spot.
He had been pummeled, and he wanted to exact vengeance on Zhang Chun. That was why he had paid a huge price to look for Elder Feng so that he could help him deduce Zhang Chun's origin. Who could have thought that … not only did Elder Feng not tell him anything, the other party even became an esteemed guest!
What the heck was this?
"You possess the Divination Constitution, so you are the most suitable candidate to become a seer."
After explaining the matter, Elder Feng turned to Zhang Xuan and asked excitedly, "Are you willing to become my direct disciple? Do you want to acknowledge me as your teacher? "
"Elder Feng, you have taken in countless students, but you have never taken in a direct disciple before …" Zhang Chun's cheeks twitched.
While seers were not particularly powerful, they were still one of the Upper Nine Paths occupations. Even the head of the Zhang Clan would have to treat them with respect. This was especially so for Elder Feng, who was one of the strongest seers in the Upper Nine Paths.
If Zhang Xuan were to become Elder Feng's direct disciple, his standing would be on par with him. If so, it would be difficult for him to exact his vengeance.
"Direct disciple?"
The young man by the side was also filled with envy.
Even though he was his teacher's student, he was only a teacher, not a direct disciple. If he did not achieve this, he would only be able to reach the pinnacle as an 8-star seer for the rest of his life.
However, there was no point in being envious of such a constitution. There was no way he could learn it.
Zhang Xuan did not expect Elder Feng to want to take him in as his direct disciple as soon as they met. However, he did not rush into rejecting Elder Feng's offer. Instead, he looked at Elder Feng doubtfully and asked, "Are there very few people with the Divination Constitution?"
"Very few. Including you, there are only four people with the Divination Constitution in the entire Forsaken Continent!"
Elder Feng explained.
"Four people? Who are those four people? "
Zhang Xuan did not think that there would be three other people other than him. He could not help but feel a little curious.
Zhang Chun also stopped his wandering thoughts and turned to look at Zhang Xuan.
"You must be Luo Xuanqing from the Luo Clan, right?"
Instead of answering Zhang Xuan's question, Elder Feng suddenly turned to the young man beside him.
"Xuanqing pays respect to Elder Feng!"
Luo Xuanqing clasped his fist.
"Un, there's no need to stand on ceremony. Previously, when the Little Princess was forced to leave with her cultivation sealed, the head of the Luo Clan requested my help in divining her whereabouts. I was unable to pinpoint her exact location, but if I'm not mistaken, she possesses the Divination Constitution as well!"
Elder Feng said.
"My younger sister possesses the Divination Constitution as well?"
Luo Xuanqing was taken aback.
He had been wondering why the Luo Clan was unable to find his younger sister despite searching for so many seers after she left. It was due to this matter that he had developed a prejudice against seers, thinking that they were nothing more than mere trickery. Who could have thought that his younger sister actually possessed the Divination Constitution?
Elder Feng nodded.
"What about the other two people?"
Zhang Chun asked.
"The other person is the first person with the Divination Constitution that I have ever met, the young prodigy of your Zhang clan. No matter how I try to divine his whereabouts, I can't find any trace of him at all. It's as if he has never appeared before!"
Elder Feng said.
"Him?" Zhang Chun nodded as he heaved a sigh of relief.
It was fortunate that the young prodigy possessed the Divination Constitution, or else Luo Xuanqing would surely be bragging about it before him.
"The last person is a young lady. She's around the same age as Zhang Shi, and she's mysterious and powerful. I met her a few months ago, but it's a pity that she disappeared before I could even speak with her!"
Elder Feng shook his head with a bitter smile.
"I see!"
Zhang Xuan replied with a frown.
He had always heard of how formidable the young prodigy was, but after hearing those words, he realized that the young prodigy was indeed formidable.
Just like him, even seers were unable to divine his whereabouts …
It was no wonder he was able to keep a low profile, such that even Luo Xuanqing had no idea where he was!
"Wait a moment … You said that I possess the Divination Constitution, making it impossible for you to divine my whereabouts. If that's the case, how did you know that Brother Luo and I were heading to the entrance? "
Zhang Xuan suddenly thought of something, and he couldn't help but ask.
Since he was unable to divine his whereabouts, how did the other party know that he would be heading over at this moment?
Furthermore, how did the other party know that he would open the door right after arriving at the entrance?
"This …"
Not expecting Zhang Xuan to ask such a question, Elder Feng paused for a moment before looking at Zhang Xuan with a bizarre expression. "You … don't you know how to use your Spiritual Perception? Given how close we are to the entrance, you should have been able to easily extend your Spiritual Perception there! "
"…" Zhang Xuan.
