God-Level Special Forces Soldier-Chapter 502 - 499: Ancient Cultivation Techniques
If not for coming closer and just standing on the ground looking up, those who don’t know would only think it’s a pit eroded by time over the ages, not drawing any attention.
But it was this seemingly empty mural that firmly captured Lin Bingxuan’s attention!
Because it was so dark, seemingly like an endless darkness that strikes fear, Lin Bingxuan quickly moved her gaze to the second mural, as if looking any longer would pull her into the boundless darkness of the painting.
The second mural was much more normal, depicting a man with a bare upper body, skin all red as if he had just woken up, rubbing his eyes.
Lin Bingxuan was about to turn her gaze to the third mural when she jumped in shock and looked back at the mural, how could there be such a mural?!
There wasn’t a trace of color on the painting in front of her, perhaps there had been originally, but now not a single piece of the color remained; it was bizarrely suspicious.
How did she know the skin color of the man in the mural that had no color at all?!
Even if one uses their imagination, it shouldn’t be this silent and harmonious, right?!
Knowing in her heart that Xiao Tian in the real world was still in crisis, Lin Bingxuan shook her head to stop pondering these questions and started desperately climbing upwards, only to find she couldn’t move forward at all.
The space in front of her appeared empty, yet it felt like it was blocked by an extremely clean, top-notch transparent glass, preventing Lin Bingxuan from going upwards.
As she struggled to obtain the treasure so close to her, Lin Bingxuan couldn’t help but grow anxious, and her intuition told her that if she obtained what the altar was eyeing, it would surely change the dire situation in reality!
It’s not that Lin Bingxuan trusted her intuition unconditionally, but she understood the magical aspects of the Life Seal the most, after all, it had just saved her life not long ago.
At the moment, through the guidance of the Life Seal, the Divine Sense Realm was opened, revealing this majestic altar. If there was no treasure at the summit to overturn her circumstances, it would be unreasonable.
Regarding the mysterious state of the Life Seal, Lin Bingxuan actually had a vague judgment in her heart; perhaps this was the legendary spiritual treasure choosing its master!
Lin Bingxuan’s judgment was indeed correct; the artifact spirit of the Life Seal had indeed recognized her as its master. It was just that the spirit was currently very weak, having to slowly recover by relying on the growth in her power.
Thus, the Life Seal had even more reason not to harm Lin Bingxuan, although she couldn’t be fully certain of her judgment yet!
Being unable to climb up literally made one anxious enough to jump on the spot, and just as Lin Bingxuan was anxiously stomping her feet, a little girl’s voice came to her ear: "Master, you must finish looking at the murals to move upwards!"
"Who’s there?!"
This voice truly startled Lin Bingxuan, and she hurriedly called out to inquire, but that voice never appeared again.
Lin Bingxuan recalled that slightly weak childish voice, addressing her as master?
Could it really be that the treasure has a spirit?!
With no other options, Lin Bingxuan could only follow the little girl’s reminder to look at the side murals.
The third mural’s protagonist was still the shirtless man. The man stood towering, looking at the surrounding darkness with a displeased expression on his face.
After looking at the third mural, Lin Bingxuan hesitantly reached forward, she hadn’t forgotten the pain that struck her head just a moment ago.
Amazingly, upon touching it, she found that the previously unseen barrier disappeared without her knowing when.
This discovery made her feel incredible in an instant, could that invisible barrier tell if she had looked at the mural?!
Lin Bingxuan looked around at the murals on either side, then gently poked forward again, only to find that the barrier had reappeared.
With no luck in trying to bypass it, she had no choice but to earnestly look at the murals. Suppressing her anxiety over the real world and her curiosity over the strange barrier settings, she started to watch by herself.
On the fourth mural, the man stood with his head in the sky and feet on the earth, wielding a massive axe against the darkness in front, his imposing aura gave her soul a tremendous shock.
By this point, Lin Bingxuan already had a vague understanding of the story depicted in the murals, evidently — Pangu splitting heaven and earth!
Then Lin Bingxuan was completely immersed in the mural’s story...
As her footsteps continued forward, the stories of Nuwa creating humans, Fu Xi drawing trigrams, Shennong tasting herbs, Lei Ze Hua Xu, and Kuafu chasing the sun appeared on the murals like vivid scrolls, lively displayed before her eyes.
It wasn’t until she finished the story of Dayu controlling the floods that Lin Bingxuan realized she had reached the summit, with a stone crafted into the appearance of a book lying quietly on the stone platform in front of her.
Although she didn’t understand why "Classic of Mountains and Seas" was engraved on the murals, Lin Bingxuan knew this was not the time to delve into these questions. The pressing task was to take away what lay before her to overturn the dire situation in reality.
But when she took that last step, a strong pang of heartache pulled her consciousness back to reality, next seeing those two Mizuno people raising their long knives, about to stab into Xiao Tian’s body.
At the critical moment, Lin Bingxuan, without having time to regret that she hadn’t obtained the treasure in her Consciousness Realm, instinctively threw herself onto Xiao Tian, taking those fatal blades in his stead.
Then Lin Bingxuan felt searing pain in her back, followed by a warm current appearing at the wound, erasing her pain.
Then Xiao Tian, in a frenzy, pulled the blade out from Lin Bingxuan’s body and applied pressure to stop the bleeding.
At this time, as Lin Bingxuan returned to her Divine Sense Realm, her physical body in the real world also fell into a temporary sleep, and for a moment neither noticed that Lin Bingxuan’s back showed not even a trace of a wound.
No need to guess, this must be the effect of the Life Seal!
Re-entering her Divine Sense Realm, Lin Bingxuan suddenly grew anxious, looking at the exquisite ancient tome made of stone before her, but felt no desire to obtain it.
Now all she wanted was to return to the real world and live and die with Xiao Tian, and in her desperation, she attempted to rush down from the peak.
"Master, don’t go!"
Just as Lin Bingxuan took her first step, that childlike voice who had just given a reminder appeared once more at her ear.
The artifact spirit seemingly knew what she intended, and said: "Don’t worry about outside, you must quickly master the cultivation technique, otherwise you won’t be able to help even if you go out!"
Lin Bingxuan’s brow furrowed deeply, after much consideration she had no choice but to ask: "What cultivation technique?"
"It’s the ancient cultivation technique behind you!" The spirit’s voice was evidently much better than earlier, though it still sounded weak, at least now she could simply converse with it!
"Ancient cultivation technique?!"
