679 Escape from Heaven’s End Cliff 4 (1/2)

”You guys should see that.” Jun Wu Xie said, pointing at the wall behind all the others.

Qiao Chu and everyone else turned their heads to look, but saw nothing unusual at first. But Rong Ruo very quickly noticed that the stone blocks on the wall were filled with tiny characters etched into them.

”I can see characters on it.” Rong Ruo told the others.

Everyone went forward to look and they all finished reading all the tiny words carefully, sighing heavily at the end.

”I had not thought that the Twelve Palaces would use the method of forcibly raising your spirit power to lure people to work for them. That man was rather pitiful. Based on the writings he left behind, he must have held a very high position in the Lower Realm and he had squandered it all with a moment's greed.” Rong Ruo sighed lightly, feeling a little sad for the owner of the stone house.

[The Twelve Palaces had never been easy to get along with.]

Accepting their favours and getting oneself indebted to them was as good as stepping onto the path towards death. Even if that man had not died here and he finally found the Dark Emperor's tomb in the end, he would still have ended up being killed just like their parents had been, under the persecution of the Twelve Palaces.

”Little Xie, what does any of this has got anything to do with you attaining the purple spirit?” Qiao Chu asked, scratching at his head. Had they not just asked Little Xie how she learnt the method of temporarily raising her spirit power level?

Jun Wu Xie walked over to the wall and pointed at a line right at the bottom corner.

Everyone looked at where Jun Wu Xie was pointing. They read it again and they all froze.

[Purple spirit was just merely the product of burning up of one's spirit power.]

That short line of words was so completely innocent sounding and inconspicuous they had all thought nothing much of it when they had glanced through it earlier, and its meaning had not registered in their mind. But after Jun Wu Xie pointed it out, an outrageous idea formed in their minds!
