Chapter 139: Astral Rune
Not long after, the quiet room’s door was opened again. Chen Xiao Han had already brought back some food.
Breakfast was very simple. Two steamed buns, a large bowl of congee, and a dish of pickled vegetables. However, although it was simple, the preparation of it was very fastidious. Just looking at it made a person hungry and start to salivate.
Lu Xuan hadn’t eaten for a whole day and night and had long since been so hungry that his stomach rumbled. How could he wait now. Taking the food, he began to wolf it down.
“Slow down. If it’s not enough, there’s still more.” Chen Xiao Han gleefully watched Lu Xuan eat and couldn’t help but give him a reminder. After a pause, she then looked at the books piled at Lu Xuan’s side and asked: “You’ve finished reading all these books?”
“Mhmm. Finished all of them… These books were pretty useful… I feel like my understanding towards runes has increased a level…” Lu Xuan continued to answer Chen Xiao Han in between eating his meal.
Everything in his memories had been all rather high leveled rune drawing skills and how to use the runes. Now having looked over the basics, he had filled in that part of the blanks.
Also, these books which he had had Chen Xiao Han get weren’t only the basic books, there was also books that had recorded high level enchantment runes. These books normally would not be lent out so easily. If Lu Xuan had entered the Enchantment Hall according to the normal steps, he would only become an ordinary middle level enchanter and wouldn’t necessarily be able to easily get these things.
However, now he was Hallmaster’s honorary disciple, and even more, Hallmaster and Elder Fan and other’s hope. With this kind of raising, he could naturally flip through them any time. Not to mention, with Lu Xuan’s current strength, ordinary middle level runes weren’t any problem for him.
Truthfully, the memories that Lu Xuan had received from the sword crystal similarly had quite a few high level enchantment runes which were even more perfect than those recorded in the Enchantment Hall, higher end, but he didn’t dare to casually take them out. Those kinds of high level enchantment runes were all ancient enchantment runes. If others were to see it, he was afraid it could become troublesome. It was always wise to play it safe.
That’s why he specifically had Chen Xiao Han find these currently circulating high level runes which he could contrast with the ancient enchantment runes. From there he could remove some of the runes that had long since been lost. This way he could relax and use them in front of outsiders.
After finishing eating and drinking, Lu Xuan felt a burst of tiredness hit. Having read books for a whole day and night, his head had been continuously operating non-stop. While he hadn’t felt anything while in that learning state, now that he had stopped, he was feeling tired.
He didn’t have to endure it right now. There was a bed to rest on anyway. Ignoring Chen Xiao Han on the side, Lu Xuan directly climbed into bed and sat cross-legged. He hadn’t slept in a long time. For him, circulating the Tai Yi Yuan Return Tactic was just as good a resting method for him.
However, before entering his cultivation state, he hadn’t forgotten to send Xian Chen Han away: “Hey, Xiao Han, help me get bring some materials for drawing an astral rune over. I want to practice on in a while.”
The astral rune was a high level enchantment rune. When enchanted onto weapons, it could automatically absorb yuan force, making the weapon stimulate a stimulating qi, and it could even greatly enhance the power emitted by a weapon. Lu Xuan was preparing to draw an astral rune and enchant his xuan iron sword. After enchanting it, the xuan iron sword would be even more formidable.
More importantly, there was already the astral rune from the ancient enchantment runes. As long as he practiced it, once he was alone, he could use the ancient enchantment technique to draw. It would be much stronger than the version of astral rune circulating nowadays.
Hearing Lu Xuan directly saying her name, Chen Xiao Han’s eyes grew large as she said: “Is Xiao Han something that you can also call me? Call me senior sister.”
Hearing this, Lu Xuan curled his lips: “What senior sister. Don’t trick me. I’ve asked master. He told me he’s never even accepted you as a disciple.”
“Oops. I was discovered by you.” Chen Xiao Han had surprise in her eyes, but then she recovered: “You trickster! You haven’t even left here. When could you have asked!”
Looking at Chen Xiao Han’s expression changing from embarrassment to anger, Lu Xuan’s eyes couldn’t help but show a mischievous look. This girl was pretty fun to tease, exposing her lies on her own.
“Alright, alright. Yesterday you tricked me into calling you senior sister. Let’s call it even. I want to cultivate. Remember to help me find those materials. This was master’s command.”
Finished speaking, Lu Xuan didn’t pay any more attention to her. His hands formed a hand symbol, and he began to circulate the Tai Yi Yuan Return Tactic. The yuan force that filled the air began to slowly enter into his body.
Once again entering the inward vision state, Lu Xuan could still feel the obstacle that prevented him from breaking through to body refining sixth level. It seemed like currently forcefully charging past it would still result in failure. He gave up on any ideas on breaking through immediately.
There was still plenty of time, no rush. It just so happened that he could take this time to closely examine the rune dao. Perhaps at the time, once his spirit force increased another step, it would be like water flowing forming a channel and he would break through. Adding on his martial path strength, it should be enough to take care of Lin Tian.
Seeing Lu Xuan quickly entering his cultivation state, Chen Xiao Han didn’t dare to bother him and could only stomp her feet as she exited and went to find the needed materials.
