Chapter 110: Priceless Ancient Characters (2/2)
The spotlessly white pure jade bottle did not fill up quickly, Ye fan estimated that he had already filled it with seven to eight jin worth of water and this made him elated, although it was not as precious as the divine medicine, this water was still that of a divine spring.
“Your granddaddy, didn’t he mention that it could contain a mountain, why is it suddenly full?” He had absorbed ten odd jin of water but the pure jade bottle was already full.
I can only obtain so much divine spring water, there’s no way to continue. Ye Fan stood up as he came before came before the eleven small trees, plucking a needle-like leaf as he placed it into his mouth to chew, feeling a strong spiritual energy.
“If it was a greedy individual, he would certainly even uproot these divine trees and leave.” Ye Fan did not wish to recklessly waste natural resources, this divine tree could only grow by relying on the divine spring water and he did not wish to make it extinct, who knew if he would return to pluck the divine medicine again in the future.
He merely broke off a few slender branches, placing them within the pure jade bottle before taking big strides down the mountain.
Not far away from the peak, Ye Fan saw a copper mirror, this was elder Jiang Han Zhong’s weapon and at this moment is was dull without any lustre as it lay within the rubble.
“The artifact forged by a cultivator who has reached the Other Shore realm is definitely extraordinary.” Not long ago, he had personally witnessed the frightening might of the copper mirror, it could cause the sun and moon to seem dull and the world to be colourless, shooting forth dazzling lights and trembling with a vast amount of divine energy.
Ye Fan picked up the eight trigrams copper mirror and spoke: “It’s identical to the pure jade bottle, its divine glow has receded and the Dao Inscriptions have vanished, who knows if it will recover after leaving the Forbidden Ancient Desolate Land……”
No far away was a parasol, elder Ji Yun Feng’s weapon. After being pierced by a finger from the sacred woman of the celestial rotating jade, it was currently damaged but Ye Fan still kept it.
After searching for a while, he did not make any other discoveries as he swiftly rushed down the mountain without stopping, he did not wish for the youth which he had painstakingly recovered to once again fade away.
“I can’t return by the original path.”
There was a divine carriage following each of the families which came into the forbidden area, the person seated within made Jiang Han Zhong and the others very respectful, making it clear that there was a formidable presence within.
Ye Fan chose a direction and did not tarry any longer as he hastily moved off, increasing his speed to his limit.
“If those bigwigs are willing to expend large amounts of energy, they will be able to use their celestial vision to piece through hundreds of Li, the ancient bronze coffin was discovered by them in this manner. I have to leave as soon as possibly to prevent them from from locating me. If they feel anxious and use the ability, I will not have any way to live within the Eastern Badlands any longer.”
Not long after, Ye Fan finally rushed out of the forbidden area. He did not hesitate as he began to swiftly drink the divine spring water, he was afraid that he would suffer any frightening changes from leaving the Forbidden Ancient Desolate Land as mentioned by Jiang Han Zhong.
It was clear that he was overly cautious, he was already a cultivator of the Spring of Life realm and had even consumed the divine medicine atop the sacred mountain, he had already undergone the changes and at this moment no other changes occurred to him.
“I wonder how Liu Yi YI, Zhang Zi Jun and the others fared…….”
Ye Fan rushed into the depths of the mountains and swiftly left the forbidden area far behind, he knew that in the days that followed there would be waves of commotion, the experts of the Jiang Family, Ji Family and Alkaid Sacred Ground had all been exterminated and once this news spread, there would definitely be a huge ruckus.
“I can only temporarily hide, after a year or so when everything dies down before showing my face again.” He did not wish to take any risks and decided to establish a cave dwelling within this piece of primitive land, hiding here while raising his cultivation level without anyone noticing.
Finally, Ye Fan chose a stone mountain and established a cave dwelling within it.
Time passed swiftly and in the blink of an eye a month had already passed. Ye Fan had attempted to use the cauldron suppress his body to achieve immortality as written within the Dao Scripture, however, there was too little mentioned within it and he had almost killed himself during the suppression.
“Damned ancestors! He had spent an entire month struggling before finally escaping from the suppression and kept his cauldron. His expression was extremely pale as he hurriedly retrieved the pure jade bottle and began to take large gulps of the divine spring water to recover.
He continued to experiment for two months before finally finding a way. The cauldron was simple and unadorned yet natural as it slowly became five metres tall within the cave dwelling, thereafter, Ye Fan placed himself within it as he became suppressed.
Ye Fan followed the mystical arts recorded within the Dao Scripture, there were nine unique ancient characters etched within the cauldron and when they were arranged perfectly, they seemed to have a frightening power that could change the heavens, immediately causing the inside of the cauldron to become muddled and misty, as though it had been transported to the beginnings of the world.
“These nine ancient characters……” At this moment, a streak of light seemed to flash through Ye Fan’s mind as he seemed to think of a possibility.
When he first studied the Dao Scripture, he had felt that these nine ancient characters were extremely special.
They were indicated with symbols within the Dao Scripture but their exact meanings were not indicated and he naturally could not understand them. However, there were a few sentences which mentioned of a simple ancient technique, carving these nine ancient characters into one’s’ artifact will provide energy to suppress one’s body, allowing one to achieve immortality.
“I understand!” Ye Fan was extremely agitated, these nine ancient characters made him think of the ancient scripture which he had obtained within the ancient bronze coffin, these nine ancient characters were extremely similar to those hundreds of ancient characters, they seemed to be of the same calligraphic style!
“These nine ancient characters actually contain such a mighty force, that mysterious ancient scripture is formed from all those ancient characters. If we do not talk about the actual value of the content, just the several hundred ancient characters can be regarded as a priceless treasure!”
At this moment, the nine ancient characters were etched within the cauldron, muddled and misty, time seemed to stop as the music of dao reverberated, as though one had achieved eternity.
