Chapter 27 (2/2)

If Lin Xun wanted to go further on the road of inscribing spiritual tattoos, money was indispensible.

Of course, if he became a real spiritual tattoo someday, he could make money easily.

There was also another saying– There was smell of money flowing through the fingers of each spiritual tattooist since every spiritual tattoo formation he inscribed would be sold at sky-high price.

Having learnt with Master Lu, Lin Xun knew it clearly.

So he must make money hard to learn and inscribe spiritual tattoos for increasing the chance to become a spiritual tattooist. After then, wealth, status, and fame would be on hand.

In Lin Xun’s eyes, inscribing spiritual tattoos was his survival skill. After survival, it could be used as a way to make money for cultivation.

Not a child from a rich or powerful family who didn’t need to worry about money, or an offspring from the nobility who had various resources, being poor and blank, Lin Xun could only rely on himself in Ziyao Empire.

…

More ruddy blood bats came out as Lin Xun went deep. Fortunately, their attack force was weak though they looked ferocious, so Lin Xun killed them easily.

Pu***

The depressing sound of killing bats was unstopped. Besides that, only the sound of Lin Xun’s footsteps could be heard.

However, as time passed, the amount of ruddy blood bats was increasing. Sometimes they even rushed out in groups like lumps of fire rain. Thus Lin Xun had to cope with them carefully, waving that dark cyan dagger on his hand quickly.

Gifted by Master Lu for defending himself when Lin Xun was young, this dark cyan dagger was cast by many rare spiritual materials. Unfortunately, there was no spiritual tattoo on it because even Master Lu could not succeed in inscribing one.

So it was just an ordinary weapon without grades, even it was unparalleledly sharp.

To judge a weapon was graded or not was exclusive – to check if there was spiritual tattoo on it or not.

Treasures with spiritual tattoos were called spiritual weapons. Based on the power, these weapons were classified into Human-rank, Earth-rank, Heaven-rank, and Yang-rank, and each rank then was divided into low grade, middle grade, high grade and top grade.

Generally speaking, practitioners at the level above Gang Spirit Realm could exert the highest power of a spiritual weapon.

For Lin Xun who was only at the second level of Martial Realm, a spiritual weapon on his hand could hardly exert its power.

However, even without grade, this dark cyan dagger was powerful since it was refined with many rare spiritual materials.

This dagger was also named Sky Breacher by Lin Xun, meaning it could break off the sky eventually.

With Sky Breacher on hands, Lin Xun kept moving. Nevertheless, the mine was so deep and quiet, as if there was no end of it.

Until now, he had walked five thousand meters for more than two hours.

The deeper he went, the darker the surrounding was. Lin Xun could hardly see the path without the dim dark red glow on the wall.

His vision was affected seriously, so when the ruddy blood bats attacked him suddenly, it became a little hard for him to defend himself.

In the end, Lin Xun gave up distinguishing where these bats came from and began to perceive the dangers by his consciousness with focused mind.

It was nearly the same as fighting with closed eyes.

At first, things were a little out of control and Lin Xun was nearly bit by those rats in the crucial part. But later he familiar with this kind of fighting method and did it with facility gradually.

What’s more, fighting with consciousness made Lin Xun gain much apperception of martial cultivation. The obscurity and mystique of Six-word Saberplay that had not been fully understood before were also caught on.

Shua***

The blade of the dagger breached the air and killed the sudden appearing bats with roving glitter, like an unexpected rainbow in the darkness.

At that moment, Lin Xun was completely lost in the learning of Six-word Saberplay, completely forgetting the passage of time.

His skills of using the dagger became more adept and concise, with an indistinctly hard-edged and mysterious feeling.

It was lucky since Lin Xun had perceived the Meditating Magic through meditation, and his soul and mind got improved and refined to sense the surroundings clearly. For any other practitioners who were at the second level of Martial Realm, if he fought without sight in this situation, he would be bit by these ruddy blood bats all over the body and die soon.

Not knowing how long it took, when Lin Xun could not sense anything and became awakened, he found he reached the end of the hole.

There was a huge rock in front of him unexcavated. Obviously, he could not go on.

Looking the place around, Lin Xun slightly narrowed his eyes when he saw piles of skeletons and bones on the ground!
