Chapter 182: Mystic Flame’s Location! Mind Scroll!

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

The voice of Dongfang Niemie started to tremble upon hearing what Yang Dingtian had said.

“Child, you must be out of your mind; your actions may lead to horrifying consequences. Pretending to be a Hidden Sect member may be the biggest crime ever! You don’t know about the Hidden Sect, but they hold the most notable position in the world. Although people always think that Yin Yang Sect and the Mystic Heaven Sect are in the same tier as the Hidden Sect, but we are actually nothing as compared to them!” Dongfang Niemie said.

Dongfang Niemie continued with a heavy tone, “Anyway, pretending to be a member of the Hidden Sect may be way more dangerous than you imagined. Once your cover is blown, you will face annihilation from the world. Apart from that, if there really are members of the Hidden Sect around in the world, you will face their trial and eventually be killed by them even if you are not exposed. No one in the world can escape the judgment of the Hidden Sect.”

Yang Dingtian replied, “But I couldn’t think of a better idea. On the other hand, I had already pretended to be a Hidden Sect member once under the threat of Dugu Fengwu.”

“Let’s think through this slowly… We are still a few days away from Cloud Heaven City anyway,” Dongfang Niemie said.

“Yes, at least we have to find a way to leave this West End Island,” Yang Dingtian said. After he finished his sentence, something important suddenly came to his mind, and he said, “Master, I have a half pieced map with me, I suspect it is a Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame map, but I couldn’t understand the words written on it, can you read them?”

“I can understand ninety percent of the languages in this world,” Dongfang Niemie said.

Yang Dingtian immediately retrieved the map that Ning Rou’er gave him from his ring of storage, placed it in front of his eyes, and started to transmit the map to his master.

Dongfang Niemie spent a good ten minutes looking at the map; his pace of breathing got faster and faster as he started to get more and more worked up. Of course, he was only a divine conscience who didn’t need to breathe, but he still instinctively reserved his original habit.

“Child, the good news is that it is definitely a Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame map,” Dongfang Niemie said.

“Really…” Yang Dingtian got instantly filled with excitement. Initially, he was suspected that this was a Heaven and Earth tier Mystic Flame map, but now his master Dongfang Niemie had confirmed that his suspicion was right, how could he not be happy.

If you were to say that mystic skills were the symbol for the strong, then the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame map would be the symbol for the best of the best.

Almost every martial artist in this world could only convert the mystic flame of the beasts to their own core flame.

However, there were definitely no more than ten men who could convert the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame to their core flame. Those who could do so were the absolute overlord at their side of the world, and also the best among the best.

Yin Yang Sect’s Patriarch Dongfang Niemie, Mystic Heaven Sect’s Patriarch Zhu Qingzhu, Cloud Heaven City’s Lord Ximen Wuya, Northwest Qin City’s Lord Qin Wanchou, Temple of Ten Thousand Blood’s Temple Master Dugu Xiao, and many others.

Of course, if the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame symbolized the best of the best, then the soul sword would undoubtedly be the symbol of the extremely best, even a tier higher than the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame.

The only known people who have already successfully reached the soul sword level were only Dongfang Niemie, Ximen Wuya, and the Patriarch of the Hidden Sect. However, Dongfang Niemie and Ximen Wuya were both no longer around, and the remaining Patriarch of the Hidden Sect had also withdrawn from the world for two hundred years.

In other words, there was not a single known person in the current world with the real soul sword.

There were only three known individuals that were preparing to practice the soul sword, Dugu Fengwu, Dongfang Bingling, and Yang Dingtian.

Even Qin Huaiyu was not planning to practice the soul sword, according to rumors. In the past, the extremely gifted Ximen Yanyan also had no intention to practice the soul sword.

And the extremely vital key to practicing the soul sword would be this Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame!

“But there is also bad news,” Dongfang Niemie said. “I am capable of understanding ninety percent of the languages in this world, but the words on this map are among the ten percent that I can’t understand.”

After hearing his master’s words, Yang Dingtian was instantly struck by a sense of disappointment. Dongfang Niemie was arguably the most knowledgeable person in this world, if even he couldn’t understand the words on the map, then who else would be capable of doing so?

However, Dongfang Niemie continued by saying, “I may not understand the words on this, but I know the originating race for these words.”

“Which race is it?” Yang Dingtian asked impatiently.

“The Fox Race!” Dongfang Niemie said.

Yang Dingtian got stunned for a moment, as he instantly recalled the thousand years old mystic vixen that was sealed at the dungeon of Cloud Heaven City.

“They are not human beings?” Yang Dingtian asked.

“Half human, half beast, that’s why they are called the demi-human race. Their genes are not as gifted as the beasts, but they are smarter than them. Mystic Meridians are more gifted than humans but not as civilized as humans. Their population is around ten times smaller than humans, and even so, they are still divided into hundreds of different races and always have internal wars. That is why even though they have their own civilization, and control the East Parting Grasslands, they were never a threat to humans for thousands of years.”

Yang Dingtian instantly felt amused, who would have known that such a demi-human beast race actually existed.

“Master, there is a thousand-year-old mystic vixen at the dungeon of Cloud Heaven City. Do you think she will understand these writings?”

“Highly possible,” Dongfang Niemie said. “The vixen may be a beast, but after all they do have the genes of the fox race, they should understand the writings of the fox race.”

“If that’s the case, I would really have to make a trip to Cloud Heaven City,” said Yang Dingtian. “The consequences of faking as a Hidden Sect member is really very serious…. But at this point in time, perhaps the vixen is the only person that can understand the writings on this.” Dongfang Niemie said.

“Master, there will also be a solution for everything. We are still eight thousand miles away from Cloud Heaven City anyway, we can decide on how to sneak into the city when we are close,” said Yang Dingtian.

“I’m afraid this is our only choice now,” Dongfang Niemie said.

“Oh yes, master, there is one more thing. When I was using the thunder element mystic skill Mountain Split earlier, I have to accumulate my qi for fifteen seconds first, and all my qi is only sufficient for one attack. It seems like my Mountain Split is still at a very low level, not only does it not have much effect, I still have to waste such a huge amount of qi. Are there any methods that can increase the level of the Mountain Split? Making it able to produce more power with lesser qi.”

“Haha…” Dongfang Niemie laughed instantly. “Poor child, how can you not have a mentor by your side to guide you when you are learning a mystic skill for the first time, this is my fault as your master.”

Indeed, Yang Dingtian was completely clueless towards the learning of a mystic skill; the only thing he knew was to insert the qi into the scroll and start learning. After that, begin to build up the mystic skill and execute it for an attack.

As for such a high-level mystic skill, he was really completely clueless.

“To increase the level of mystic skill, you will need mental strength. Martial art skills only require brute strength and mystic skills to control it. But mystic art, being a higher level and more complicated method of attack, will require mental strength to control. The greater your mental strength, the faster your mystic skill will improve, and of course, the effect would be stronger, and mystic strength needed would be lesser.

Speaking of mental strength, Yang Dingtian immediately thought of sister Ning Ning. She could actually use mental mystic art to control four experts to the extent that they couldn’t even move; she was, without doubt, extremely gifted in terms of mental strength.

“Then, how do I increase my mental strength?” Yang Dingtian asked.

“Learn it through the mind scroll, and then go into the state of meditation. Sadly, this remote island doesn’t have much mind scroll,” said Yang Dingtian

“Are mentally gifted people scarce?” Yang Dingtian asked.

“Everyone is mentally gifted, just that the level of gift differs among all individuals,” said Dongfang Niemie. “Ximen Ningning, she is the most mentally gifted person I have ever seen, one of a kind!”

“Then, are mind scrolls very precious?” Yang Dingtian asked.

“There are tons of it everywhere, you can buy good ones with money,” said Dongfang Niemie.

On second thoughts, Yang Dingtian understood that this should be the case. After all, there were so many mystic art practitioners in the world, and improving mental strength was a must for mystic arts, so mind scrolls were definitely not hard to get hold of.

Speaking of mind scroll, Yang Dingtian recalled that there were still many items inside the ring of storage sister Ning Ning gave him. However, Yang Dingtian felt that he was only borrowing the ring; many items inside were probably Ning Ning’s personal items. Even though they shared a close relationship, Yang Dingtian still thought that he had no right to look through those items.

Come to think of now, there were indeed many scrolls inside the ring of storage, perhaps one of them would be the mind scroll.

At this moment, Yang Dingtian couldn’t help but search through the ring of storage, and there were indeed a few scrolls inside.

It seemed like sister Ning Ning’s mystic strength couldn’t be used for attack purposes, and so those should be mind scrolls.

Under normal circumstances, the level of scrolls was also related to the color of it.

The lowest level was a mixed color, followed by grey, white, blue, red, black, and gold. Lastly, the highest level would be colorless.

The colorless mind scroll, which was a level nine scroll, was the highest level mind scroll in the world.

Yang Dingtian instinctively wanted to take the highest level colorless scroll, but he suddenly recalled that thinking that all these scrolls were one-time use items, which meant they get destroyed after using them. The fact that Ning Ning sister placed these scrolls here meant that she had obviously not used them before, and these scrolls were precious, so how could he use it for himself.

Yang Dingtian’s attention started to switch onto the golden scroll, but he still couldn’t bear to use it away. Anyway, he might not be as mentally gifted; using a high-level scroll might just be a waste.

As for the black colored scroll, there was only one, but Yang Dingtian still couldn’t bear to use it away. At that moment, Yang Dingtian suddenly lost at which scroll to choose.

“Master, which scroll should I choose?” Yang Dingtian asked Dongfang Niemie’s conscience in his mind.
