Chapter 59: Divine Realm Tablet

　　‘What exactly is this Divine Realm Tablet? Why does it have such a horrible power? I can’t believe it can burn my soul directly through my Moon Eye Technique!’ Yunxiao’s heart was pounding while his eyes were still closed, lost in thought. ‘This strange energy fluctuation is superior to my super ninth-grade mystic weapon, the Starslash Sword…Could it be an artifact of the Ten Worlds realm!’

　　Having once stood at the summit of this continent, he naturally knew that there was an unfathomable realm of the Ten Worlds above the peak of the Nine Heavens realm. Rumors had it that once an individual stepped into the Ten Worlds realm, he or she would achieve the ultimate goal of martial arts—becoming the God of Martial Arts!

　　“Divine Realm Tablet! Is it an artifact of the Ten Worlds realm left behind by the legendary Martial God?” He was greatly shocked and muttered with excitement, “It must be! The only power that can directly attack the soul is the legendary divine power of the Martial God!”

　　“What exactly was this Tianshui before? Why is a treasure left by a Martial God here? No wonder there is a Vermilion Bird Divine Fire Array at the door. Although the array is complete, it was crudely constructed. Clearly, it is a product of haste. The Martial God must have encountered some emergency, which is why he left this tablet here.”

　　He had just figured out the whole story when he suddenly said to himself, “No, no! When a person achieves the ultimate goal of martial arts and becomes a Martial God, he basically can live forever, and all his thoughts and movements are the laws of martial arts. How can an almighty existence like this encounter an emergency? What happened here?”

　　He sat cross-legged down and closed his eyes to ponder. Outbursts of strange power emanated from the Divine Realm Tablet and flowed over him, washing his body again and again. Yunxiao felt indescribably comfortable, but he did not dare to open his eyes, fearing that this force would burn his soul again.

　　All of a sudden, thousands of bright dots flashed in his mind and began to gather over his spiritual altar.

　　“Great Expansion Divine Technique!”

　　Triggered by the power of the tablet, the Great Expansion Divine Technique had once again taken the initiative to condense into shape. One after another, golden characters with unfathomable secrets began to flash inside his mind. His heart was filled with joy, and at the same time, he vaguely felt that this technique should also be a cultivation technique practiced by Martial Gods.

　　With the appearance of the Great Expansion Divine Technique, his injured soul began to be nourished. He felt as if a clear spring was flowing through his mind, allowing his soul power to recover at top speed. At the same time, his body was bathed in the light of the tablet, giving him an indescribable sense of comfort.

　　He felt as if he were lying in the sunshine on a winter day, not only too comfortable to move, but also a little sleepy.

　　It was unknown how much time passed when Yunxiao suddenly woke up. He was horrified to find that he had indeed fallen asleep, and that the Divine Realm Tablet had completely transformed into white jade, standing there quietly without any luster.

　　He saw that there seemed to be white silver sand flowing gently on the surface of the tablet. When he looked carefully, he sucked in a cold breath. The moving silver sand turned out to be a galaxy!

　　Shocked, Yunxiao muttered to himself, “I can’t believe this Divine Realm Tablet can communicate with the power of the stars! It’s indeed an amazing artifact! I wonder if it will allow me to leave a seal inside?”

　　His hands began to perform a mysterious seal. Soon, a lotus flower appeared in his palm, and then fell gently on the tablet.

　　He was on his guard. This tablet had surpassed any alchemy instrument he had come into contact with before. He would not dare to treat it carelessly even at the peak of his previous life. And now, he was even more cautious. He was afraid that his carelessness would lead him beyond redemption, not sure if he would be reborn again.

　　Whoosh!

　　His mind suddenly trembled and his pupils grew wide as a force rushed directly into his mind, and his body was suspended in mid-air without his control. His mind seemed to be controlled by something, taking away his control of himself!

　　His heart filled with horror, and he knew that it was because his strength was too weak that he was controlled by the Divine Realm Tablet.

　　Fortunately, the time he was under control was very short as his body fell heavily to the ground a moment later. He felt that his mind was extremely clear, and found that the Divine Realm Tablet was floating quietly over his dantian!

　　“It worked!” Yunxiao jumped up in exultation and hit his head on something hard.

　　He glanced around. The cave abode was no longer there, and where he was standing now was a small space of only ten meters squared, not more than two meters high, with the surrounding walls made of diamond rocks. After he took away the Divine Realm Tablet, the interstitial space naturally disappeared. This place was the original cave.

　　Yunxiao calmed down and examined himself, surprised to find that he had broken through after some sleep. He had become a peak five-stars warrior, just one step away from becoming a six-stars warrior.

　　Of course, he was not overjoyed. After all, this kind of cultivation base was rubbish in his opinion. It did not matter to him whether he made more or less progress. What really delighted him was that his soul power had also made great progress. Although it had not yet reached the second-tier, it was not far away.

　　“Let me try to see if I can control this Divine Realm Tablet!”

　　He sat cross-legged down again, sending his divine sense into the tablet. Since the Divine Realm Tablet had been placed in his body, it naturally had a connection with him. Under the rotation of his divine sense, he could clearly feel its existence.

　　But to his disappointment, no matter how hard he tried, his divine sense could only enter the interstitial space within the tablet, and he could not control it at all.

　　“This is terrible!” he cried out. “I can’t control it at all. It’s like I only have an extra storage ring!”

　　Unwilling to give up, he tried countless times again, but the tablet still did not respond. But now, everything inside the secret vault was in the tablet, and they were all his. As a result, he was in a slightly better mood after he had sifted through the materials.

　　Li Baifeng waited anxiously at the door and was relieved when Yunxiao appeared. Staring at the storage ring in Yunxiao’s hand, he said angrily, “Why have you stayed in there for so long? You didn’t take all the good things away, did you? The things in this secret vault are the accumulation of the family for thousands of years. You’d better not take too much!”

　　‘Not only did I take too much, I even took the whole cave abode away…’

　　With a guilty conscience, Yunxiao handed the storage ring to Li Baifeng and said, “Take this ring then.”

　　He had put all the valuable things into the tablet, leaving only some gold coins and daily necessities in the ring.

　　“This… this…” Looking at the ring in his hand, Li Baifeng opened his mouth wide and did not know what to say. ‘So, he didn’t take too many good things away, did he? Well, this boy is kind,’ he thought to himself.

　　Yunxiao said, “Fourth Uncle, you will be in charge of the daily affairs of the family for the time being. I need to cultivate in seclusion for a period of time. As for Li Yi, he will not dare to come back any time soon. Also, Old Master is fine, so you can rest assured.”

　　Listening to Yunxiao’s orders, Li Baifeng felt a little strange, but he was not too surprised. After all, the strength and wisdom displayed by the former recently had been recognized and praised by all. At first, he was a little worried about Li Yi, but felt at ease when he heard him say that Old Master was well.

　　Li Chunyang was the absolute backbone of the Li Family, and the spiritual pillar of everyone!

　　Yunxiao asked the four Great Martial Masters to report back to Qin Yue and Bai Zhu while he took Ji Meng to the Alchemist Association.

　　He needed to start refining some medicinal pills, not only to treat Xiao Qingwang and Chen Dasheng’s injuries, but also to prepare for his future martial arts cultivation. Now that Tianshui was in an eventful period, there should not be many peaceful days ahead.

　　What he had to do now was prepare for a rainy day!

　　…

　　Master Jia Rong?” Staring at Yunxiao, Lu Yao shook her head slightly and said, “He and President Xu began to cultivate in seclusion at the same time and haven’t come out yet.”

　　Yunxiao smiled and said, “It’s alright. Ask him to come out. He won’t blame you.”

　　Lu Yao found it difficult to do. She knew Yunxiao’s identity, but no one could afford to disturb an alchemist’s cultivation. Moreover, Jia Rong had specially stressed before he began cultivating in seclusion that no one was allowed to disturb him even if the sky fell down. “Young Master Yun, I really can’t. If Master Jia Rong…”

　　“If he blames you, I will bear all the consequences and make up for all your losses,” Yunxiao interrupted her.

　　Lu Yao froze on the spot, her eyes full of dilemma and her forehead slightly perspired. She could not afford to offend Jia Rong, but could she possibly offend Yunxiao?

　　At this time, Ji Meng also frowned and said, “Young Master Yun, an alchemist’s cultivation in seclusion is more dangerous than a warrior’s. If they are disturbed for no reason, the best situation is that their cultivation will be interrupted, and the worst case is that they will experience Qi deviation.”

　　He saw that Lu Yao was in a dilemma, and he did not want Yunxiao to get into trouble for nothing, so he kindly reminded him.

　　Yunxiao ignored him and smiled at Lu Yao, “If Jia Rong knew I was looking for him and you didn’t inform him, the consequences would be very serious.”

　　Ji Meng’s face became a little dark, and he thought Yunxiao was too arrogant. In his view, alchemists were all madmen who stayed in the laboratory all day long, looking down on everyone except those alchemists with higher strength than them.

　　Who was Yunxiao? He was just a young master of the Li Family. Although his understanding of martial arts was extremely profound, no alchemists would pay him any mind.

　　Just when Ji Meng was slightly unhappy, Lu Yao cried out in surprise, “Master Liang!” She was relieved at last as she saw Liang Wenyu was walking over. Now even if the sky was indeed falling, there was someone who could hold it for her.

　　“Young Master Yun? Commander Ji?” Liang Wenyu was slightly taken aback, and then asked Lu Yao about the situation.

　　After learning what was going on, he smiled bitterly in his heart. Yunxiao was a maniac who did not even show respect to the President and Master Zhang Qingfan, and he knew he was not easy to dismiss. “Young Master Yun,” he said stiffly, “Jia Rong is cultivating in seclusion, and we better not disturb him rashly. If you need anything, I can help you solve it.”

　　Yunxiao said, “I’m going to refine a batch of medicinal pills, so I need Jia Rong to help me.”

　　Liang Wenyu laughed and breathed a sigh of relief, “I see! If there is anything in excess in the Alchemist Association, that will be alchemists. I will arrange two alchemists to help Young Master Yun refine the medicinal pills.”
