"I understand now, no wonder, no wonder before I clearly ascended to Five-star Peak Beast Warrior, yet felt as if some force forcibly reverted me back!"

Su Chen gritted his teeth and said.

"Yes, so it's quite challenging to both restrain the curse power of the Dark Witch Demon King and maintain your current cultivation progress."

The Celestial Secret Elder shook his head and said, "Lord Suanni also considered other methods, but eventually found no clues. So, he ordered me to bring you two items."

"What items?"

Su Chen's eyes could not help but brighten!

The Celestial Secret Elder spread his palm, and an ancient yellowed scroll suddenly appeared, "This is Angel's Holy Light, a light-attribute scroll that can help you purify dark aura within your heart."

"Light-attribute scroll? What is this thing?"

Su Chen exclaimed in surprise.

"It's actually just a small portable charm."

The Celestial Secret Elder smiled faintly, "Charms are categorized into fixed and mobile charms, crafted by high-level Astrologers. They possess various abilities like restriction, imprisonment, and purification. Scroll charms crafted by Astrologers of different Beast Cultivator attributes have different effects."

Su Chen was greatly delighted and slowly took the scroll, "But how should I use it?"

"As long as you feel the invasion of dark power, you can open the charm, and naturally, a power of light will cleanse your heart."

The Celestial Secret Elder said indifferently, and then another diamond-shaped deep black crystal appeared in his palm. The crystal floated above his hand, emitting a faint glow, and suddenly a scene flashed in Su Chen's mind!

"This... I've seen this crystal before!"

"Haha, seeing is not rare. This is just an ordinary Canghen Crystal."

The Celestial Secret Elder stroked his beard and said lightly.

Su Chen blinked, then recalled seeing Ghost Howl's longsword atop Luoji Mountain and Mo Yue embedding a Dark Witch Demon into a forehead crystal, suddenly realizing, "Canghen Crystal, no wonder they call Ghost Howl Master Canghen, turns out he deliberately used a fake name like the crystal. So this crystal has the functions of identifying Spiritual Treasure and absorbing external substances?"

"You have quite a broad perspective."

The Celestial Secret Elder could not help but laugh, "The Canghen Crystal indeed has these functions, it can both identify the level of weaponry and store external objects. However, its most critical function is absorbing a large amount of dark power. Once the curse power within you erupts with nowhere to discharge, it can temporarily absorb to prevent terrible consequences!"

"Are these all meant for me?"

Su Chen still couldn't help but confirm aloud.

"Yes. Remember, you must regularly activate Angel's Holy Light to purify the evil aura on your body, otherwise over time, your mind will eventually be controlled by dark power, and it will be too late to regret then. Now, I'll teach you how to use the Canghen Crystal."

The Celestial Secret Elder stepped forward, grasping Su Chen's hand, flipped his palm, and the cold Canghen Crystal imprinted on the back of Su Chen's hand. Instantly, a chilly aura penetrated his body, causing Su Chen's mind to tremble.

"Spiritual Objects rich in heaven and earth energy are generally used to embed onto weapons to serve auxiliary functions. When used individually, they should have unique effects. Such as healing, purification, and summoning. Like this Canghen Crystal, it possesses storing external objects and identifying weapon functions. First, let's talk about the storing function; it involves establishing a subtle potential relationship between your mind and the crystal heart, and then as soon as your mind arrives, you can instantly store objects inside. When needed, you can retrieve it, extremely convenient. But before using it, to prevent it from being snatched, best to permanently embed it into your body."

The Celestial Secret Elder spoke, suddenly emitting a milky white glow from his body enveloping Su Chen completely. A gentle feeling spread throughout, as if deciphering something to his mind. Before long, a peculiar sense emerged within his mind.

"Your power is insufficient to form a bond, so I've forcibly embedded the crystal into your body, forming a usage contract as a Spiritual Object. It can't be taken out anymore, but you needn't worry about it being stolen."

"But once embedded in the body, doesn't the weapon identification function become obsolete?"

"Haha, with your power, you won't need that function, and identifying weapons requires cooperation with dark power; do you want evil to invade your true mind?"

Su Chen quickly shook his head.

"Then now, try sensing the location of the crystal's heart, get familiar with storing and summoning."

The Celestial Secret Elder said lightly.

Su Chen slowly opened his eyes, looked at the back of his hand, indeed didn't see the Canghen Crystal. He focused his mind, that subtle sense instantly strengthened, then facing Angel's Holy Light scroll, silently chanted, "Angel's Holy Light, store!"

Swish, as the sense reached its peak, the Angel's Holy Light scroll instantly transformed into a white light, disappearing into the air. Su Chen slightly rejoiced, controlled his mind, let the sense weaken to its lowest, where the scroll immediately reappeared before him.

"Turns out every item has a strongest and weakest point of perception: the strongest stores, the weakest summons. Whether or not to recite an incantation doesn't make much difference."

Su Chen intuitively grasped it and murmured.

The Celestial Secret Elder nodded contently, "Very good, understood in one go. Now you needn't worry about carrying too many external objects. Remember, frequently activate Angel's Holy Light, it benefits you immeasurably. The Canghen Crystal awaits your dark power control to fail before it can perform absorption, otherwise its lifespan will quickly exhaust and shatter."

"Understood."

Su Chen slightly nodded, his expression somewhat respectful. He indeed felt grateful towards the elder who brought blessings to him.

The Celestial Secret Elder finished speaking, his expression turned peaceful, looking at Su Chen with inexplicable gaze. Su Chen felt uneasy from being stared at, asked, "What's the matter? Grandmaster Celestial Secret?"

The Celestial Secret Elder paused, then revealed a gentle and warm smile.

He called him Grandmaster Celestial Secret, hehe.

"For calling me Grandmaster Celestial Secret, I'll tell you another secret."

He extended his right hand, swiping in the air, instantly, a ring-shaped illusory light screen appeared before them. Su Chen's heart skipped, exclaimed, "What is this?"

"This is called Mirage Light, it allows viewing a specific scene from a distant place, but with my current power, it lasts at most one minute. Quickly memorize this scene, it greatly assists in your upcoming training."

Su Chen saw, it was a fairy tale-like scene. Birds sang, flowers bloomed, surrounded by bridges and flowing streams, lush green trees, the most peculiar part was the faint celestial aura pervading the entire scene, attracting one's heart.

He noted down several narrow paths therein at utmost speed and concentration; sure enough, within a minute, the Mirage Light dissipated into air, everything vanished.

The Celestial Secret Elder stroked his beard and said lightly, "Your body contains attributes of both fire and water, but lack skill manuals, correct?"

Su Chen was invigorated, nodded promptly and said, "Yes, does Grandmaster Celestial Secret have any manuals..."

His voice gradually faded, evidently embarrassed.

The Celestial Secret Elder chuckled, shaking his head, "I have many manuals, but didn't bring them, plus they're all light attribute, you won't need them."

Seeing Su Chen's disappointed look, he continued, "However, I can tell you, that place just now holds an intermediate fire attribute skill manual!"

"Intermediate?"

Su Chen exclaimed in shock.

"Yes, intermediate may not be much at our level, but for a Beast Master like you, it still offers some attraction and training difficulty. But your talent is excellent, with a physique different from ordinary people, training shouldn't pose much problem. Only..."
