Chapter 102 – Drawing a Shaman Volume (1/2)

Translated by Sunyancai

Early next morning, Shao Xuan came to the Shaman’s stone room.

The animal skin roll that the Shaman passed onto Shao Xuan described the processing methods for ten rare animal medicines.

Shao Xuan assumed that the Shaman would only let him start with a few volumes pertaining to plants. But unexpectedly, when he was done with the volume, the Shaman asked: “Have you read it thoroughly?”

“Yes. I’m confident that I can harvest the entire medicinal part if I ever encounter these animals.” Answered Shao Xuan.

“Um.” The Shaman responded with that, and then said to the warriors guarding his door: “Don’t let anyone in unless it’s urgent.”

Seeing the Shaman’s behavior, Shao Xuan couldn’t help but become serious as well. It seemed that the Shaman had something important to talk to him about.

“Sit over there.”

The Shaman pointed to a short desk besides him, and took out a piece of blank animal skin roll, as well as a stone plate that had special pigments that could only be used by the Shaman.

Well, in this situation…

Shao Xuan probably understood what he meant.

“Do you know how the Shaman Volumes are made?” Asked the Shaman.

“No, I don’t.” Shao Xuan was a little confused, maybe the Shaman was not the only one who could make the Shaman Volumes?

Seeing the curiosity and confusion within Shao Xuan’s eyes, the Shaman explained slowly: “The totem power isn’t the only power.

totem power is a combination of the body and the spirit. Becoming a totem warrior is only the reflection of the body’s part. As for the spirit… Everyone has it within them, but the amount is very little.”

“Then… What is the other one?” asked Shao Xuan.

“The other one is the power of inheritance. The inheritance of spiritual consciousness.” Said the Shaman.

Every Shaman would inherit his or her predecessor’s ability, and one of the things that got passed down was enough power of inheritance.

“Since you can understand the contents of the Shaman Volumes, I believe that you’re not like the other normal ones. You should have more power of inheritance than others.” Explained the Shaman.

“The power of inheritance…how do you find it?” Shao Xuan asked.

The Shaman stared at Shao Xuan, and pointing one of his bony fingers between Shao Xuan’s eyebrows: “Ask the totem, and you’ll find the answer naturally.”

Shao Xuan closed his eyes, and began to feel the totem which existed in his mind.

Besides the two horns that were surrounded by dancing flames, he saw nothing else.

Just when Shao Xuan was feeling confused, he heard the Shaman whispering into his ears: “Look carefully.”

Shao Xuan continued to observe the totem, and this time he paid extra attention to the details.

There was more than one layer of flames.

Shao Xuan opened his eyes and asked tentatively: “Is it blue?”

The Shaman nodded with satisfaction. It’s good that he could see it. As for how and where on earth Shao Xuan gained the power of inheritance…the Shaman had no idea, and he decided not to pay too much attention on that.

“How much inheritance did you see?” asked the Shaman.

Shao Xuan looked at the brush pen beside him and looked at the Shaman, “May I?”

The Shaman passed him a thin brush pen.

The brush pen was not exquisite in Shao Xuan’s eyes, and it was not easy to write with, not so easy as a carbonized branch. But where would he find a carbonized branch right now? He could only write a stroke or two at a time with such a brush pen.
