第两千零七十章 得偿所愿

Lin Xuan flexed his fingers slightly, and the talisman ignited on its own without any wind. A spark flashed by, and to everyone's surprise, the jade box shattered silently. An image of a woman appeared in front of him; it was only an inch or two tall but quickly grew larger.

In just a few breaths, the statue became about the size of a real person.

"This..."

Peng Que rubbed her forehead with her hand, her expression filled with shock. The statue was carved from an unknown black stone. It depicted a young maiden whose features were incredibly lifelike—beautiful and slender. Despite being made of black stone, her face still shone with extraordinary beauty.

However, this woman had nine heads and eighteen arms, looking extremely bizarre. This was very similar to when Lin Xuan performed the Lesser Heavenly Realm Technique.

"Divine Witch Goddess!"

"Wife, do you recognize her?"

"Yes, I once saw her in Fairy Miao You's chamber. Of course, what she worships is just an ordinary statue, nothing like this," Peng Que's honest voice echoed in his ears: "Where did you get this from?"

"Haha, by chance, I discovered the ruins of the Black Moon Clan at the bottom of the Spirit Realm," Lin Xuan revealed to his beloved without any reservations. He briefly described it and then waved his sleeve, sending a streak of green light that enveloped the statue of the Divine Witch Goddess towards an empty pedestal.

A thud echoed in their ears as the pedestal perfectly fit the statue, fitting together seamlessly. Clearly, they were meant to be together.

Seeing this, Lin Xuan felt relieved and fortunate. Had he not brought back this statue with a 'better safe than sorry' mentality when he was at the bottom of the Spirit Realm, he might have been stuck without it today.

After the statue returned to its place, the array indeed began to activate. Like mercury spilling on the ground, one by one, the runes lit up, and simultaneously, an overwhelming spiritual pressure surged out. If not for the protective array in the cave, the entire structure might have collapsed.

Then, the Divine Witch Goddess's hand actually moved.

For a moment, Lin Xuan thought he had misjudged it. How could something carved from unknown black stone move?

However, many things in the cultivation world do not follow common sense. The statue's jade hand not only moved but did so with great agility. One after another, magical seals appeared and were directed towards the array.

Boom!

A loud noise echoed as a golden beam shot up from the array, reaching the top of the stone cave before dispersing into countless beams of light. Each beam flashed several times before transforming into words about the size of fists.

Lin Xuan was momentarily stunned but then showed signs of extreme joy. He quickly raised his head and focused on reading them.

These characters were ancient and archaic, but he recognized all of them. Unlike the difficult-to-read ancient texts at the entrance, these were more straightforward to understand.

However, while the words themselves were simple, what they described was incredibly complex and profound—each character held secrets, each sentence contained wisdom...

The Black Moon Divine Witch Technique!

After reading just a few lines, Lin Xuan knew exactly what this cultivation technique was. Moreover, if his memory served him correctly, it should be the second part, corresponding to the Spirit Separation stage.

Lin Xuan felt overjoyed. He had come here precisely for this; now that he had achieved his goal, how could he not feel elated?

The cultivation technique for the Spirit Separation stage was beyond what he currently possessed, but as a cultivator with an unforgettive memory, memorizing it wasn't much of a challenge.

Lin Xuan began to focus on memorizing it.

Peng Que's expression became somewhat bewildered. Although she recognized these characters, she had yet to reach the Spirit Separation stage and had never studied the Black Moon Divine Witch Technique. The idea of understanding a cultivation technique for that stage seemed too far-fetched.

After reading just two lines, her head began to spin. Peng Que was intelligent and decisive. Knowing how significant this technique was, but recognizing she lacked the necessary depth, she decided not to force herself. After all, if her husband mastered it, it would be beneficial regardless.

So, she stopped focusing on the text and instead turned around to examine other objects in the cave.

Time passed slowly.

The combined text filled about 70,000 characters, which Lin Xuan memorized word for word.

Next, he took out a blank jade cylinder and carved these texts into it. As cultivators might make mistakes over time, he decided to engrave them now so that when he reached the Spirit Separation stage, he could slowly decipher them.

After completing this task, Lin Xuan and Peng Que carefully checked every corner of the cave, ensuring they hadn't missed anything. Only then did he reach into his waistband and pull out five jade boxes one by one.

He not only placed the statue of the Divine Witch Goddess in these boxes but also included those of the Four Sage Masters, reducing their size before placing them inside as well.

Having tasted the benefits of bringing back multiple statues, Lin Xuan wouldn't miss anything this time.

"Lord, what were those words you just read? Your expression suggested that you recognized them," Yuan Yuan finally asked.

"Yes, it's a cultivation technique. It's considered one of the Black Moon Clan's treasures. However, there are four parts to it, and I already have three. This is my main cultivation technique," Lin Xuan replied.

"The Black Moon Clan's treasure must be incredibly powerful? Is that correct?"

Lin Xuan nodded and sighed: "Unfortunately, Yuan Yuan, you're a spirit bird body; you can't cultivate this. Otherwise..."

"Haha, Lord, don't worry about it. Our Peng Que clan has its own cultivation techniques. The Black Moon Divine Witch Technique is good, but it's not suitable for me, so there's no point in feeling sorry," Peng Que said nonchalantly.

"Indeed, I was too focused on you just now. However, although Yuan Yuan can't practice this technique, some of the abilities within might be worth exploring. Honestly, wife, this cultivation technique is meant for Spirit Separation cultivators, and I don't understand it yet. But there's a small technique that doesn't relate to any stage; it could be very useful for us," Lin Xuan suddenly said with joy.

"Oh, what does Lord mean?" Peng Que knew Lin Xuan wouldn't speak in vain, so she was interested as well.

"I can't say exactly, but the technique seems related to refining true soul blood. I only skimmed through it just now and can't make a definitive judgment; I need to understand it fully," Lin Xuan said with a smile.
