第三千四百七十三章 好奇心

Lin Xuan already had the Black Moon Heaven Witch Technique.

This was a secret art of the Mo Yue Clan, and its power was naturally beyond measure.

Moreover, as he practiced it, Lin Xuan could increasingly feel its extraordinary nature.

Other than its ability to transform true spirit into a sword, the True Spirit Formation Art was incredibly powerful. If the Illusory Spirit Heavenly Fire reached its peak, it was said that it could even slay immortals.

To be frank, the techniques immortal cultivators practiced might not necessarily surpass this one.

Considering Lin Xuan had already advanced to the Tribulation Transcendence stage, changing his main cultivation technique would be foolish.

Therefore, regardless of how miraculous the techniques recorded in the jade pupil were, they held no attraction for him.

The same was true for Mo'er. She was a reincarnation of the Arhat King. The power of the True Arhat Explanation needed only to look back at the battle between the Arhat King and the True Immortal at the North Pole to see its might. As an Arhat King's reincarnation, Mo'er’s cultivation techniques were identical to her previous life, making it even less likely for her to be swayed by other techniques.

Seeing that the jade pupil was on the ground, Lin Xuan and his wife both felt a lack of interest. Since there was no attraction, they decided not to linger any longer.

However, at this moment, the situation in the arena changed abruptly. Two Spirit Separation cultivators were fighting when one of them dropped the jade pupil. Everyone's attention was immediately drawn towards it, but no one dared to pick it up.

Everyone understood that whoever obtained the jade pupil would become a target for everyone’s attention and even sudden attacks.

Given this, they wisely decided not to rush into the fray. It was better to wait and see who could outmaneuver the others.

Despite their wisdom, an unremarkable old man in a black robe suddenly stepped forward, his sleeve flapping as a beam of light emerged from it, snatching up the jade pupil.

The sudden change caused those wary cultivators to become enraged: "Dare you! Put down the treasure!"

"Such audacity! Are you trying to live longer than an old man? You must be feeling lucky."

...

Shouts filled the air. It was understandable why they were shocked and angry, as this black-robed elder was only at the Separation Formation stage, a lowly cultivator among them.

No one would have paid attention to such a minor figure, but he had just performed an astonishing feat.

Despite their shock, the other cultivators did not let him get away with it.

But before they could react, Lin Xuan's lips curled into a smile. His gaze was far more perceptive than most, and he noticed something unusual.

Indeed, a long laugh echoed as an unbelievable scene unfolded.

Boom!

With a burst of runes, the black-robed elder suddenly emitted a brilliant light, his aura expanding tenfold or more.

This wasn't just a Separation Formation cultivator; it was clearly a late Spirit Separation cultivator.

He had not usedqi collection techniqueto conceal himself but a special talisman to seal his power, which is why he managed to deceive so many people.

If not for Lin Xuan's superior divine consciousness, he might have missed this trick entirely.

But the man’s audacity was too great.

While sealing one's power with such a talisman had excellent effects, unsealing it required complex steps. Did he not fear dying before completing the unseal?

He was essentially gambling his life, but regardless of the risk, he succeeded.

As a late Spirit Separation cultivator, dealing with these attacks was easy for him.

With a long laugh, he summoned an odd-shaped treasure.

It wasn't clear if it was a sword or a knife, but its power was undeniable.

In an instant, it blocked incoming attacks. Then, with a wave of his right hand, he affixed a spirit talisman to his body. The small spirit talisman flashed and disappeared into his body. Soon after, light flames erupted from behind him, forming a pair of wings over two meters long.

These wings were entirely composed of light flames, dazzlingly bright.

With a gentle flap, the man turned into a streak of light that vanished.

No, he didn't disappear; it was just that his speed was too incredible. It surpassed even those at the Tribulation Transcendence stage, and no one could catch up to him despite their shock.

The entire process seemed complicated but took only an instant.

The black-robed elder’s success in obtaining the treasure not only stemmed from his formidable strength but also from his meticulous preparation.

With that spirit talisman, he had moved so quickly that others couldn't follow. Thus, the matter was settled.

...

"Master, are we leaving?"

"No, I want to see what kind of treasure it is."

The many cultivators fighting over the jade pupil, even risking such dangers, piqued Lin Xuan's interest. He decided to satisfy his curiosity.

In their eyes, the other man’s speed was unattainable, but in Lin Xuan's eyes, it wasn't extraordinary.

Determined to find out what lay beyond, Lin Xuan didn’t delay further. He enveloped Mo'er with a green glow and flew off.

...

Indeed, that person's speed was impressive. Lin Xuan flew for nearly an hour before he saw the other man far in the distance on the horizon.

The man turned his head, realizing someone had caught up to him.

Surprised, he grew anxious. His current speed relied on a spirit talisman and couldn't be increased further no matter how hard he tried.

What should he do?

Before he could think of a solution, Lin Xuan arrived with a gust of wind.

"Hand it over."

Lin Xuan didn’t waste words.

The other man released his divine consciousness, but the response was deep and unfathomable. Both Lin Xuan and Mo'er felt this way.

Two Tribulation Transcendence cultivators.

The black-robed elder’s heart sank. He had worked hard to obtain the treasure, but he never expected such a result. Human plans are no match for heaven's will, as they say.

He hesitated, but two Tribulation Transcendence existences were beyond his match. To hand it over would be humiliating, yet giving up was equally unacceptable. He was in a dilemma.

Fortunately, Lin Xuan wasn’t someone who bullied the weak. With a wave of his sleeve, an jade bottle flew out: "Friend, since you are reluctant to give it up, I will exchange this bottle of medicinal pills for it."

The other man hesitated but took the bottle. After uncorking and sniffing it, he burst into joy. The value of these medicinal pills far exceeded that of the jade pupil to him.
