Chapter 397

Long Chen couldn’t help celebrating . “What kind of treasure? Is it a cultivation technique or a Battle Skill?”

Even his voice quivered slightly . If this was a cultivation technique or Battle Skill that had come from the immortal era, then wouldn’t it be heaven-defying?

“This page’s name is the Ethereal Crafting Secret Record . It’s a marvelous remnant of the immortal era . ” Yue Xiaoqian’s eyes were filled with amazement as she looked at the golden page .

“Hey, don’t keep me in suspense . Is this Ethereal Crafting Secret Record a cultivation technique or Battle Skill?” Long Chen’s eyes were practically glowing .

Yue Xiaoqian glanced at Long Chen . He could see that her gaze was filled with contempt for him . He was startled; what had he said wrong?

“This Ethereal Crafting Secret Record isn’t a cultivation technique or Battle Skill . It is a sacred canon on forging items . ” Yue Xiaoqian was filled with admiration for this page .

“Forging? Are you messing with me?” Long Chen’s expression became unsightly . Even this thing was considered a treasure? He really did feel messed with .

“You…! You really are unreasonable!” raged Yue Xiaoqian . “This Ethereal Crafting Secret Record contains all the countless techniques and arts of a Forging Master from the immortal era! Those kinds of skills have long since disappeared . Its value is inestimable! If the Ethereal Crafting Secret Record spread, then the entire world would go crazy . There would not be able a single power that would remain indifferent to it . ”

“It’s this valuable?” Suddenly, Long Chen slapped his own leg . Isn’t this precisely what that little brat Guo Ran needs right now? I actually forgot about him .

Previously, Long Chen had used the golden page to fight . Due to its incomparable sharpness, he had subconsciously a.s.sumed that whatever was recorded on it had to be related to battle . It seemed he had misunderstood .

“I really can’t bother to talk to you . ” Yue Xiaoqian felt like Long Chen’s intelligence really was no longer on the same level as her . Could such a priceless treasure be described as just valuable? That was practically blaspheme .

“Come over here . ” Yue Xiaoqian beckoned coldly .

“For what?” Long Chen’s guard rose . “Are you planning on hitting me?”

That was because Yue Xiaoqian was now clearly a bit different than before . Long Chen felt more and more that this woman was dangerous .

Yue Xiaoqian, who had been angrily glaring, couldn’t help laughing when she saw Long Chen’s doubtful and careful gaze .

“Why would I hit you? Come over so I can transmit the immortal characters to you . ”

Although only a part of her face was revealed, seeing that mirth in Yue Xiaoqian’s eyes, Long Chen hastily steadied his mental state and approached .

“Immortal characters are different from the characters of the current era . Each word contains its own artistic concept . When immortal characters are combined together, they form a continuous image . Such immortal characters cannot be transmitted through simple paper . It can only be carved onto spiritual material like soul gold essence . So the only way I can transmit the translated images to you is mentally . Don’t move . ” Yue Xiaoqian extended her hand and placed it on Long Chen’s forehead .

At this time time, Long Chen was extremely close to her . He could smell her fragrance . He could feel her breath .

The most relaxing thing to him was when her hand touched his forehead . That kind of satiny feeling made him feel as if all his pores had opened .

“You trust me this much?” Yue Xiaoqian saw that Long Chen didn’t have any defense towards her, even when her finger touched the s.p.a.ce between his eyebrows .

At this distance, if Yue Xiaoqian wanted to, Long Chen definitely wouldn’t be able to stop her from killing him .

Long Chen smiled slightly and didn’t reply . Ever since he had started cultivating in the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art, he no longer trusted his eyes . Instead, he trusted his intuition .

Up to this point, his intuition had never failed him once . He trusted that his intuition was able to differentiate good and evil far better than his eyesight .

“Thank you . ” After softly saying that, Yue Xiaoqian closed her eyes . Spiritual Strength slowly poured from her finger into the s.p.a.ce between Long Chen’s eyebrows .

As Yue Xiaoqian’s Spriritual Strength poured into his mind-sea, Long Chen began to see an image .

That image contained an elder who was constantly hammering something . That hammering posture and strength, as well as just the arc and course, all contained various variations . Long Chen truly was unable to see through the profundities behind this scene .

This scene began to move . A portion of the scene was forging, a portion of the scene was some marvelous blueprints, and there was also a portion containing the runes carved onto the items forged by this elder .

Buzzz…

Suddenly, that elder thrust a sword he had just finished carving runes onto into the sky . It cut apart heaven and earth, revealing a sky full of stars .

“Immortal characters?”

Long Chen was shocked by this scene . He finally understood why Yue Xiaoqian had looked at him with such a gaze .

Previously, he had always been looking down on the Forging Dao . The understanding and learning required for forging items was far, far more profound than he had imagined .

After that sword from the image had been inscribed with runes, it seemed to come to life, possessing its own life aura . That attack had even contained its own specific will .

The images in his head faded . He heard Yue Xiaoqian’s voice, “Use Spiritual Strength to seal these images in your head so that you won’t forget them . If you don’t, then when you try to examine them later, they will become chaotic and muddied . ”

Long Chen hastily used his Spiritual Strength to seal these images in his head . This was extremely simple for him, as some pill formulas also had to be remembered in this manner .

“Thank you! This thing really is… very… cough, it’s great!” Long Chen almost once more said it was just valuable .

Yue Xiaoqian shook her head, obviously having seen through what Long Chen had been thinking . After hesitating for a moment, she asked with great embarra.s.sment, “Long Chen, can I discuss something with you?”

“What?” Long Chen said extremely straightforward .

“This… this Ethereal Crafting Secret Record, can I bring it back to give to my clan?” Yue Xiaoqian asked with great apprehensiveness
