Chapter 2 - Ancient Golden Scroll (2/2)
“Wait and see – I’ll prove my words today with my power in the future!”
He returns to the dilapidated house, his home. Yellow mud walls are full of cracks, and a broken table and a cooking range are all he owns. Yun Chuan puts the black stone on the table, and a tinge of excitement shows on his handsome face.
Though simple and unadorned, this black stone is the foundation for Yun Tian, the Holy Emperor who should be the dominator of the age. But now, it belongs to Yun Chuan.
He bites his finger, and stains the whole black stone with his blood drop by drop.
The black stone emits a brilliant light and it instantly merges into his body like a scroll which is unfolded slowly. Next moment, a bright golden scroll emerges in his mind. It slowly unfolds a tenth of itself, while lines of handwriting appear with a spiritual wave at the same time.
Yun Chuan suddenly realizes the truth – it is the spiritual wave that introduces the function of the ancient golden scroll changed from the black stone.
He looks at the golden scroll, and immediately gets excited.
“Blood upgrade… It takes 10,000 soul value to upgrade from the first-level blood to the second level… What? The blood level can be upgraded?!”
“As long as the soul value is paid, the understanding of martial arts and skills will be enhanced accordingly? Does it mean that if I have enough soul value, I can quickly acquire the martial arts that take others several years or even decades to learn and master?
The excitement on Yun Chuan’s face has never faded. He finally knows the secret that helped Yun Tian make such great achievements in his previous life. The anti-destiny ability of this ancient golden scroll is enough to save so much time in practicing martial arts. However, it is merely a tenth of the whole scroll.
“Unfortunately, now I can only see it without using it, and I’m wondering about the ability hidden in the other parts of the golden scroll after it is totally opened. It seems to be in the shape of an alchemy stove…”
Smacking his lips with a greedy look, Yun Chuan finds that at the bottom of the golden scroll, it clearly says that his current soul value is “zero”, that is to say, he can’t exchange for anything from the golden scroll.
Now there is only one way to get the soul value, that is, to kill powerful magical beasts, skillful martial practitioners, or all kinds of creatures with souls.
