Sun Wukong had acquired the Taoist Characters.

In order to research this 'sacred' character, Ao Luan called over the Immortals.

"Is this... the Great Saint's character?"

The Immortals gathered in Wanling Hall, looking at the sacred character on the paper with quite some confusion on their faces.

"What effect does this character have?"

They continued to ask.

"I don't know."

Ao Luan shook her head.

To make a Rune unleash the powers associated with an Immortal's title, one must first understand the specific Immortal Position.

Take Zhenwu Great Emperor, for example, known as the Grandmaster who purifies the Nine Heavens of demons, the Rune drawn with his title has tremendous power in exorcising demons.

Although Sun Wukong is a Heavenly Venerate, ruling over the Western Continent, without a specific Immortal Position, it's confusing to understand what his title can actually do.

He rarely used his power, and even when he made a ruckus in the Heavenly Palace, people couldn't figure out what Spells he most excelled at.

"I'll give it a try."

The Water Virtues Star Monarch said, and casually drew a Water Talisman.

"Since the Great Saint can create Water Marrow, he must have some control over water."

The Water Virtues Star Monarch said while finishing the drawing of the Water Talisman.

As the Water Talisman took shape, the Water Virtues Star Monarch chanted a Spell and tossed the Rune.

"Spring up!"

Immediately, water began bubbling up from the Water Talisman.

"Did it work?"

Ao Luan asked in surprise.

The other Immortals shook their heads.

"It's effective."

They looked at the modest water stream: "But the effect isn't significant."

The Water Talisman was a success, and Sun Wukong's sacred character indeed possessed the power of a Water God, but it didn't provide much of a boost—nowhere near the influence of the Water Virtues Star Monarch's title.

"The wise one can create Water Marrow, but he's not a Water God."

Immortal Zhenyuan said, "We need to find something that aligns with the Tao."

Runes are symbolic representations of the Tao, and only when they align with the Tao can they unleash their immense power.

"All of you go and research on your own."

Unable to make sense of it for the moment, all Ao Luan could say was this.

The Immortals nodded their heads.

"Is Wanling City going to focus all efforts on developing the Great Saint's Runes?"

They continued to ask.

"Not exactly."

Ao Luan shook her head and said, "Elder brother wants to expand the research on Runes, the existing Rune System still needs to be further explored, as it is the foundation of Wanling City."

After hearing this, the Immortals also resignedly stepped down.

In the following seven or eight days, the Immortals developed a good number of Runes using the 'sacred' character.

All kinds of Runes were developed such as the Night Crying Child Talisman, Six Livestock Peace Talisman, Five Spirits Healing Talisman, etc., but none seemed to be of significant use.

"This sacred character is just like junior brother."

One day, Immortal Zhenyuan was in Zhenwu Palace discussing work with Ao Luan and couldn't help but bring up the Runes.

"What's the similarity?"

Ao Luan didn't know what Immortal Zhenyuan was referring to.

"The sacred character is just as haughty as junior brother."

Immortal Zhenyuan said, "It simply ignores me."

He had been trying for eight days to create combat-use Talismans, all ending in failure.

Ao Luan was dumbfounded for a long time: "What is 'haughty'?"

"It means arrogant."

Immortal Zhenyuan said, "Junior brother occasionally uses that term to describe me; I specifically asked him about it."

Indeed, he was somewhat proud in his dealings with others.

Ao Luan pondered.

"What you said makes sense."

The Rune reflects the person; she had drawn the Love Talisman, wearing it for several days with not even the slightest effect.

Her elder brother's characters were as wooden-headed as he himself was.

"It's still unclear what this sacred character is for."

Ao Luan thought so.

Before Immortal Zhenyuan had a chance to take his leave, another Immortal arrived at the Government Hall.

"I know what the Great Saint's title can do now."

This is Wenqu Star.

He knew how to use the 'Holy' character, but his expression was somewhat subtle.

"What can it do?"

Ao Luan asked.

Wenqu Star handed her a Serenity Talisman.

The Serenity Talisman is a rune that calms the mind, but on this talisman, there were also blessings for academics.

Clearly, this was a Serenity Talisman for studying.

"Kuimu Star Monarch's second son is restless; he asked me to draw a few Serenity Talismans to help him with his studies."

Wenqu Star said, "On a whim, I replaced my name with that of the Great Saint."

Ao Luan looked at him, "And then?"

"Then..." Wenqu Star smiled wryly, "That kid didn't sleep last night, engrossed in reading, unable to extricate himself."

Ao Luan was quite surprised.

She then activated the Serenity Talisman, immediately feeling refreshed throughout her body, with an intense desire to study bubbling up inside her.

"It actually works."

Ao Luan glanced at the Serenity Talisman.

If this rune was effective on her, not to mention the children.

"My front door got blocked."

Wenqu Star said, "That Bear Demon King was pestering me, demanding a few no matter what."

"That's only natural."

Ao Luan nodded.

With the Serenity Talisman being so effective, if other parents in Wanling City were to find out, they would also block Wenqu Star's door for sure.

"I never thought that my brother's 'Holy' character would be used in academics."

Ao Luan couldn't help saying.

This was beyond her expectations, but upon reflection, it also seemed reasonable.

Wenqu Star felt a bit complicated inside; the effect of the 'Holy' character was better than his own name, he was somewhat unclear who exactly was the real Wenqu Star.

"The 'Holy' character has nothing to do with academia."

However, at this point, Immortal Zhenyuan suddenly spoke.

Ao Luan and Wenqu Star turned their heads to look at him.

"That's not an ordinary Serenity Talisman."

Immortal Zhenyuan said with a smile on his face, "I know how to use the 'Holy' character now."

Ao Luan quickly asked him about it.

But Immortal Zhenyuan just shook his head.

"You'll understand later."

He said, then turned and walked away.

Ao Luan and Wenqu Star were both utterly perplexed.

A month later, a piece of news that shocked Wanling City appeared.

"Miao Yin Square is going to be completed?"

Even Sun Wukong, when he first heard this news, found it hard to believe.

Miao Yin Square was the largest building in Mountain and Sea City, capable of accommodating a hundred thousand people, a rarity in the world.

Sun Wukong got the inspiration from the Heavenly Book and decided to construct it for song and dance performances as well as plays.

To be precise, it was the central opera house of Wanling City.

Miao Yin Square hadn't been under construction for many months, even with tremendous speed, it would still take half a year to take shape; how could it be completed so quickly?

"Let's go have a look."

Sun Wukong, together with Ao Luan, came to Mountain and Sea City, and outside the soon-to-be-completed Miao Yin Square, they saw Guang Hui Elder moving bricks.

"Elder."

Ao Luan stopped him, "How much longer until completion?"

"Not much longer, just a few days."

Guang Hui Elder's face was full of fighting spirit as he said, "We're full of enthusiasm, working here even in the middle of the night!"

"Oh, I better stop talking."

Guang Hui Elder glanced at the time, then continued, "My blood is boiling again, I have to get back to work!"

After speaking, the elder turned around and joined the other monks in moving bricks.

Sun Wukong frowned, "Why is the elder so enthusiastic?"

"He has always been like this."

Ao Luan said.

Although she said he has always been like this, Sun Wukong still thought it was a bit strange.

Suddenly, something struck him, he flew up into the sky, looked down with his Eyes of Golden Flame, and saw a huge rune beneath Miao Yin Square.

"What is this?"
