"It's here. Go ahead and choose!"
The ninth treasure trove had a total of seven levels. The highest level only had seven or eight bookshelves.
On each bookshelf, there were very few manuals and jade scrolls.
The bookshelves were protected by arrays.
Yi Yun casually browsed through them and saw a few jade scrolls that made his heart jump.
The few jade scrolls were as red as blood. On the surface of each jade scroll were engraved ancient mystic texts. It was as if they had experienced countless years.
The labels on the jade scrolls said, "'Tai Ah Sacred Technique' seventh to ninth volume!"
The last three volumes of the 'Tai Ah Sacred Technique'!?
Yi Yun held his breath. He had only exchanged for the first three volumes of the 'Tai Ah Sacred Technique'. The first three volumes were also the cheapest.
With each subsequent scroll, the price would increase exponentially.
To exchange for all nine volumes of the 'Tai Ah Sacred Technique', it was unknown how many glory points he needed.
"The last three volumes of the 'Tai Ah Sacred Technique' are displayed here. Then the totem mystic techniques that are placed here are probably on the same level as the 'Tai Ah Sacred Technique'!"
Yi Yun looked over and found the bookshelf that displayed the totem mystic techniques. On this bookshelf, there were only three jade scrolls and a black book!
Of the three jade scrolls, two of them were volumes of a mystic technique.
The third jade scroll was an independent mystic technique.
The black book was another mystic technique.
That was to say, there were a total of three totem mystic techniques here.
Every set was extremely precious!
"These mystic techniques …" Due to the array's isolation, Yi Yun could not pick up the mystic techniques to look at, but he could read the mystic technique's introduction.
"The 'Five Elements Divine Totem' was obtained by the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's Divine Emperor Tianfeng from a Divine wilderness ruin that was suspected to be left behind by a Great Emperor. To cultivate the 'Five Elements Divine Totem', one needs to master the five mystic techniques of 'Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth'. By gathering the power of the five elements, one has to understand the five elemental laws and fuse them into one. Only then will it be perfect!"
Yi Yun read the introduction of the first volume of the mystic technique, the 'Five Elements Divine Totem'.
Just this introduction alone made many people shrink back. Cultivating this secret technique required one to simultaneously control the power of the five elements and comprehend the laws of the five elements.
For an ordinary person, it was already not bad to be able to comprehend one type of law. Someone like Chu Xiaoran, who had an extremely high affinity with the Law of Ice, could already be considered an incredible genius. However, to cultivate the Five Elements Divine Diagram, one had to have an affinity with five types of laws at the same time.
Moreover, he had to fuse five types of Laws into one!
The process of fusing them would definitely be extremely difficult. It might even be more difficult than cultivating the five secret techniques separately!
"Has Divine Emperor Tian Feng mastered the Five Elements Divine Totem?"
Yi Yun had heard of Divine Emperor Tianfeng. He was an emperor who had a strong desire for power and control. Not only was he the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's Divine Emperor, he was also the Tai Ah Divine City's City Lord. This was something rarely seen in the history of the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom.
The Heavenly Wind Divine Wilderness's strength was unfathomable. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to enter the ruins of a Great Emperor. That was a place where even sages could fall.
"Hehe …" Cang Yan laughed sinisterly, "No, even if your perceptivity is extremely high, you might not be able to fully understand the five elemental laws. Maybe there might be a law that you just can't control. Divine Emperor Tianfeng spent a long time to master the five secret techniques. For this, he killed an unknown number of primordial species of the five elements. But in the end, although he had mastered the five secret techniques, he was unable to fuse them. Hence, he was unable to draw the Five Elements Divine Diagram. "
As Cang Yan spoke, he looked at Yi Yun with a teasing smile. His expression seemed to say –
"How is it? Dumbfounded! You dare to learn something that even the Heavenly Wind Divine Wilderness could not master? If I don't scare you to death, let's see if you can continue playing. "
Yi Yun quietly put the mystic technique introduction back and picked up the second mystic technique's introduction.
"Book of the Stars! By killing desolate beasts, one can communicate with the power of the Heaven and Earth stars, allowing it to fuse with the Power of Desolates, creating the Ancient Book of the Stars! This Ancient Book of the Stars is the Aspect Totem of this mystic technique. When the ancient book is flipped open, there will be a reflection of the nine heavens stars. One can use the stars to set up a worldly array. By combining offense and defense, one will be invincible! "
After the Five Elements Divine Diagram, there was the Book of the Stars. Just from the description, one could feel its power.
"Has anyone mastered this Book of the Stars?" Yi Yun asked.
"Hehe, the Book of the Stars only needs to communicate with the power of the stars. Although it is extremely difficult, it is not like the Five Elements Divine Diagram, which requires one to control the five elements of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth. In history, there were sages in the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom who managed to master the Aspect Totem of the Ancient Book of the Stars. When the ancient book is flipped open, there will be a reflection of the nine heavens stars. But to use the reflection of the stars to set up a worldly array, no one can do it … "
"How is it? The Book of the Stars is more reliable than the Five Elements Divine Diagram. Why don't you try learning it?"
Cang Yan said with a teasing tone, deliberately joking with Yi Yun.
Yi Yun did not answer Cang Yan, but continued reading the third totem mystic technique.
This totem mystic technique was very special. It was not a jade scroll, but an ancient black book.
The book was very thin, and it looked like it only had a few pages.
The ancient book's introduction was also vague.
"The nameless black book is an ancient remnant volume. It only has the first twelve pages. Divine Emperor Tianfeng named it the 'Ten Thousand Beast Totem'. To cultivate the 'Ten Thousand Beast Totem', one needs to kill at least ten thousand primordial species. With their Power of Desolates, one can condense an Aspect Totem!"
When Yi Yun saw this, he gasped.
Kill ten thousand primordial species!?
This is too exaggerated …
As he continued reading, the introduction said that the nameless black book did not have any specific nomological attributes.
Killing ten thousand primordial species did not matter what nomological attributes they had. As the nomological attributes were ever-changing, the Aspect Totem cultivated did not have any specific form. Be it power or laws, they all differed from person to person. It had infinite possibilities!
"This' Ten Thousand Beast Totem '… has no one mastered it, right?"
Yi Yun turned to ask Cang Yan.
Cang Yan rolled his eyes at Yi Yun, "Isn't that obvious!? It's only a remnant volume, and one needs to kill ten thousand primordial species. It's insane. Who can master it? "
"But even though it's said that no one has mastered it … there have been people who have tried it. They did not kill primordial species, but they killed desolate beasts that were one rank lower. According to the 'Ten Thousand Beast Totem's' introduction, they barely managed to condense an Aspect Totem, but the power was less than a millionth of what was described in the book!"
"This is not only because of the difference in desolate beasts' ranks. The main reason is that the energy circulation laws described in the 'Ten Thousand Beast Totem' are too profound. To control the Power of Desolates according to the 'Ten Thousand Beast Totem' is too difficult! Even sages find it hard to understand. "
"I say kid, have you made your choice?"
Cang Yan urged as he looked at Yi Yun like he was watching a good show.
You didn't want the totem mystic technique I carefully selected for you, and you insisted on coming here to be tortured. Are you satisfied now? These crazy totem mystic techniques are not meant for people to cultivate.
Let's see how you choose.
Yi Yun stood in front of the bookshelf and remained silent for a long time. He was deep in thought.
How should he choose the three mystic techniques?
Cang Yan was watching from the side. He was secretly laughing in his heart. He knew that Yi Yun was in a difficult position. Only after coming here did he realize that no matter which technique he chose, it would be like a tiger trying to devour the sky.
He had already expected that Yi Yun would shrink back and eventually give up the opportunity to choose the three totem mystic techniques.
But before that, Cang Yan did not mind leaving Yi Yun hanging for a while. He wanted to teach him a lesson, so that he would understand the principle of not biting off more than he could chew.
A thirteen-fourteen-year-old youth was successful at a young age, so he would naturally inflate his ego. He would think that he was peerless in the world. At this moment, he needed to sharpen his spirit. It was good for his growth.
"Kid, have you thought it through?"
Feeling that it was about time, Cang Yan decided to give Yi Yun a way out. He believed that the lesson he had given Yi Yun was enough.
"I've thought it through." Yi Yun said after some consideration.
"Yes, that's more like it!" Cang Yan nodded his head in satisfaction. With an expression of "this child is worth teaching", he said, "Not listening to the advice of the elderly will only lead to suffering. The bridges I have walked are more than a hundred times more than the roads you have walked. How can listening to me be wrong? It's not scary to make mistakes in your youth. What's scary is not knowing when you make mistakes. Knowing your mistakes and being able to correct them is the greatest virtue! "
Cang Yan patted Yi Yun on the shoulder. He wanted to say a few more words, but at this moment, Yi Yun's words made him swallow back the words he was about to say.
"Senior Cang Yan, this junior has thought it through. This junior will choose the third mystic technique, the 'Ten Thousand Beast Totem' …" Yi Yun made his choice after careful consideration.
"Uh …" Cang Yan stared. He was like a rooster that had its neck grabbed just as it was about to crow.
His eyes widened as he looked at Yi Yun in disbelief.
And at this moment, Yi Yun still had a pensive look.
The first of the three mystic techniques was first eliminated. The five elemental laws were not what Yi Yun was after.
As for the second and third mystic techniques, they each had their own advantages.
The second mystic technique cultivated the power of the stars!
Yi Yun remembered that when he first came to this world, the Purple Crystal had once absorbed the power of the stars in the Cloud Wilderness for one night. The dreamy glow was still fresh in Yi Yun's mind. And because of this, Yi Yun slowly discovered the use of the Purple Crystal.
It could be expected that cultivating the 'Book of the Stars' with the Purple Crystal would be twice the result with half the effort.
But … the 'Book of the Stars' had its limitations. A single star's power only meant one law in this world.
Besides, the power of the stars was very different from pure Yang energy. It was not suitable for him to cultivate the 'Tai Ah Sacred Technique'.
Hence, Yi Yun chose the third mystic technique. It had infinite possibilities and infinite changes. It was not restricted by laws or energy attributes, the 'Ten Thousand Beast Totem'!
Unfortunately …
The 'Ten Thousand Beast Totem' was a remnant!
This meant that there would be many difficulties waiting for him towards the end of the 'Ten Thousand Beast Totem'.
When that time came, he would have to find the subsequent cultivation techniques of the 'Ten Thousand Beast Totem'. But finding such a nameless ancient manual was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
"If there's really no other way, I can use the Purple Crystal's energy source to circulate to make up for some things. Or, I can find other similar totem mystic techniques to cultivate."
As Yi Yun muttered to himself, he turned his head to look at Cang Yan. At this moment, Cang Yan's mouth was slightly agape. His expression was sluggish and his eyes were wide open. He looked like a dead fish, the kind that had died from overeating.
