Chapter 465: Chapter 236: A Group of Little Tadpoles (Part 2)
Han Dong only saw a blank page.
"There’s so many tadpole-like characters on it, can’t you see them?"
Jiang Feng exclaimed in surprise. freewebnoveℓ.com
Han Dong shook his head.
"This is strange, why is it that when I open this red book, my eyes are unaffected and I can see the tadpole-like characters, but you can’t?"
Jiang Feng felt even more puzzled.
"Perhaps it’s your own opportunity."
Han Dong thought for a moment and said.
Jiang Feng was taken aback, then looked at the palace complex. The red book and the Dragon Bone Bow had been obtained from a small palace that disappeared soon after they entered.
Could it be the contents of the red book can only be seen by him?
Is the supposed backlash of the restriction only effective on him?
"There are these tadpole-like characters, and I don’t know what they mean."
Jiang Feng drew one of the tadpole-like characters on the ground for Han Dong to see.
Han Dong looked puzzled.
Even with her intelligence, she couldn’t understand what Jiang Feng had drawn, she clearly had never seen anything like it before. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
"You said these tadpole-like characters move, what do they look like when they move?"
Han Dong was filled with curiosity.
A strange book, when she looked at it, was a Wordless Celestial Book, but to Jiang Feng, it had tadpole-like characters; the book seemed to conceal untold secrets.
"When they move, if I stare forcefully, it makes my head spin. If I observe them with my Spiritual Sense, those tadpole-like characters seem to fly out of the book and swarm towards my face, dense and terrifying."
Jiang Feng spoke with lingering fear.
"Then don’t keep staring at them, and don’t observe them with your Spiritual Sense."
Han Dong worried about Jiang Feng suffering a backlash.
"Okay."
Jiang Feng nodded.
He wouldn’t risk it easily and could only attempt to read slowly to see if he could integrate the red book into his panel after seven days.
"Can you draw the tadpole-like characters again?"
Han Dong seemed to have an idea.
"They basically all look like this."
Jiang Feng immediately drew another one. He could outline it with a single stroke; indeed, the characters looked indistinguishable from tadpoles, although many characters were different, there wasn’t much difference.
"What do they look like when they move around?"
Han Dong asked again.
Jiang Feng carefully recalled.
He drew the tadpole-like characters moving, like tadpoles in a pond, originally gathered together, scattering in fright.
Jiang Feng’s drawing was somewhat abstract.
Han Dong picked up the paper, stared at it for a while, and suddenly said, "The way these tadpole-like characters move seems similar to the black patterns that appear when cultivating the Demon Slaying Skill."
"Uh?"
Jiang Feng’s mouth was half-open, and with Han Dong’s reminder, he felt a sense of familiarity.
"Before, in the prison, the black patterns on that Red Lotus Sect Young Master you killed looked quite similar to the tadpole-like characters you drew."
Han Dong pointed to the marks Jiang Feng had drawn.
Then she took out a scroll from her body.
The scroll contained insights extracted from the black patterns and the Five Poison Grass, transcending the Celestial Extreme Technique, alongside the black patterns and related text regarding the Five Poison Grass.
"Compare them and see if they look alike."
Han Dong opened the scroll for Jiang Feng to compare carefully.
"This... they really do look a bit alike."
Jiang Feng opened the red book and looked at the tadpole-like characters, a resemblance he hadn’t imagined before, but now, with the black patterns as a comparison, they indeed looked somewhat similar.
"Did you translate the cultivation technique?"
Jiang Feng asked.
"I’ve translated a part of it."
Han Dong took out a piece of parchment, on which she had written the part of the cultivation technique she translated, its content matching exactly with Jiang Feng’s Yangchun Technique.
"Could it be that this red book is related to Yangchun Technique?"
Jiang Feng was shocked.
He hadn’t expected the red book he acquired from the palace to have such a connection.
"Only when you understand the meaning of those tadpole-like characters can we know if there’s a relation."
Han Dong couldn’t draw a conclusion.
"Alright, I’ll study it carefully."
Jiang Feng was eager to integrate the red book into his panel.
"Buzz!"
But at this moment, a fluctuation was heard from the entrance of the mansion.
Jiang Feng felt an aura entering the Divine Sect Mansion.
"Humph!"
Jiang Feng quickly put away the red book and summoned the Dragon Bone Bow.
"They’re finally here."
After a few days, the Divine Sect members and the Emperor of the Great Tang couldn’t hold back and wanted to capture Jiang Feng inside the mansion.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
No matter who came in, Jiang Feng fired several arrows in the direction of the energy fluctuation.
"Boom, boom!"
The arrows shot forth.
The entrance vibrated noticeably.
Screams were heard.
After a while, the commotion disappeared.
It seemed all who entered had fled out.
To enter the Divine Sect Mansion, one needed the Three-legged Body Technique to pave the way; previously, Elder Wang’s proficient-level Three-legged Body Technique could be repelled by Jiang Feng using the Dragon Bone Bow.
Now, with his Eighth-Layer Qi Condensation cultivation, even those with Great Success Level Three-legged Body Technique couldn’t faze Jiang Feng.
Besides, few could cultivate the Three-legged Body Technique to Great Success.
"Elder, Jiang Feng is too cunning, as soon as we entered, he drove us out with the Dragon Bone Bow."
"Inside, the restriction array is too strong, and we have to deal with Jiang Feng’s Dragon Bone Bow too; we can’t get close to the statue."
"Elder, we need to find a way to cast spells from the perimeter to force Jiang Feng out."
...
The Divine Sect disciples who went in to force Jiang Feng were in distress, nearly dying under his arrows; they were injured by the restriction array while dodging his Dragon Bone Bow.
"You all go and heal first; I’ll give you an explanation."
