Chapter 46 Hidden Mystery (Updated again! Please collect and recommend!)

  Wow! I was going to say something a bit more updated, but when I woke up it was already a bit late. Haha! Half an hour late, please forgive me.. Second update, there will be another one between 8-9 pm tonight~ Please help promote Qian Xiang for me~ Let's get the recommendations going and make it grow faster!

  Just as Zong Yin was lying in bed with a white eye, Hun Yu suddenly spoke again. Zong Yin's head turned around and his gaze focused on the messy materials. The blood-colored bone in Hun Yu's mouth didn't seem particularly noticeable, it looked like half of a soul beast's skull, about half the size of a human face.

  "What's wrong? Isn't it just a skull of a soul beast with a weird color?"

  Zong Yin played with the blood-red bone in his hand, turning it over and over, but didn't find anything special.

  "I forgot to tell you that the Qi Bao Shi has another function, which is treasure hunting and authenticity identification. If you use the Qi Bao Shi to observe its aura, you will understand."

  Hun Yu's words were spoken lightly, but Zong Yin rolled his eyes heavily. Such an important ability wasn't told to him! Isn't it saying that as long as he keeps using the Qi Bo stone to observe the auras of other things, all treasures will be unable to escape his grasp in the future? However, thinking about the intense hunger after using the Qi Bo stone, Zong Yin gave up on the idea of always activating the Qi Bo stone.

  At that moment, Zong Yin's eyes became extremely deep, and the bones in his hands changed, with a very strong aura bursting out from their center.

  Zong raised an eyebrow and understood that the skull outside was just a disguise, and the real thing was inside the bone. He slammed the bone against the wall with great force.

  “Crack!” A crisp sound, the skull shattered into several pieces, one of which was a palm-sized, more vibrant square bone fragment that fell out. Zong Yin grabbed the square bone fragment in his hand, his heart filled with excitement, it seemed that today was finally rewarding.

  "What is this? A technique manual?"

  He stared at the bone fragment in his hand, which looked like a sealed technique scroll with soul technique patterns on it, but was drawn with an unfamiliar pattern. The originally regular square shape had a thumb-sized piece missing, and he didn't feel the same sensation as when he touched the sealed technique scroll during his return to his ancestors.

  "Not bad, it should be a kind of ancient sealed technique, unfortunately the time is too long ago, and more than half of it has been lost. Here only has the arm soul power operation method. The red star assist soul technique used by that person that day seems to be this one, he supplemented some things into it."

  Hun Yu gave Zong Yin a definite answer. This was indeed a sealed skill manual, but it had been damaged due to the long passage of time.

  "Huh? Soul Hole Soul Absorption Technique? This isn't a soul hole at all! It's actually an air hole! I didn't expect that in ancient times, there were Soul Masters who could sense air holes!"

  Suddenly, Hunky's voice became somewhat shrill, as if he had discovered something earth-shattering, and his tone was filled with shock.

  "I'm fed up! Another thing with no quality guarantee! What's the use! I've had enough of defective things! Who knows what kind of terrifying aftereffects I'll have if I cultivate it! Forget it! I'd rather not cultivate it at all! I just wanted a Blue Star-level martial soul technique and I'd be satisfied, but why am I so unlucky!"

  Without the slightest hint of surprise, Zong Yin's face was filled with disappointment as he tossed the bone fragment back into the pile of materials. He had already suffered enough from the backlash and aftershocks of the powerful Qi and the ancestral relic, and didn't want to add any more burdens to his already fragile body, even if it was a Red Star Soul Technique!

  "Hey, I'll teach you a trick. Do you still remember that little girl in blue? You take this and exchange it with her, maybe you can get what you want."

  How could Yun Yu not hear the resentment hidden in Zong's tone, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly spoke with a guilty conscience, then fell silent again.

  Zong Yin was taken aback for a moment, then a brilliant smile appeared on his face, but that smile looked evil no matter how you looked at it...

  Just as it was almost time for class, Zong Yin casually threw all the debris on the ground into two spatial rings, including the palm and fingers, ready to throw them away somewhere.

  When Zong Yin entered the classroom, his thoughtful expression turned into a flattering one because Yang Jun's dark face, which was already comparable to Hei Sen's, appeared in his line of sight.

  "Big brother, you've worked hard! Those few little rascals didn't cause you any trouble yesterday, did they?"

  Zong Yin's expression was like that of a grandson, causing the surrounding classmates to be full of astonishment, even Hei Sen had an unusual look on his face.

  "I killed two and let two escape, the night patrol team arrived, I couldn't catch up with them, so I let them go. You and they have a deep hatred, when they see me it's like seeing their father's killer! They would have taken my life if not for the fact that they used soul-assisting techniques, or else I'd be done for!"

  Yang Jun let out a cold hum, gritted his teeth and glared at Zong Yin with a fierce stare. He took off his upper garment, revealing his body covered in scars from sharp blades and bites from snakes, insects, rats, and ants.

  "Brother Jun is mighty! Brother Jun is domineering! One against four, and they're all masters! All of them can win easily! No wonder he's one of the top 20 experts!"

  At the sight of Yang Jun's injuries, Zong Yin suddenly felt a twinge of guilt and his flattering expression increased. However, in his heart, he was secretly worried that even if Yang Jun couldn't defeat them, they had still managed to escape with two people, which meant there would be more trouble in the future.

  Zong Yin, although often indecisive, was taught by countless past experiences that this source of trouble must be eliminated thoroughly, otherwise there would be endless future troubles. In his heart, he had already begun to consider when to get rid of Shen Peng and the two escaped soul masters, to forever eliminate the threat. Unbeknownst to him, Zong Yin had slowly become assimilated into this world where people preyed on each other.

  "Hmph! I knew I shouldn't have gone to join in that commotion! In my life, Yang Jun has always been most averse to owing others anything. You saved me once before, and now I've saved you this time, so we're even. From now on, if we meet again on the martial stage, don't expect me to show any mercy!"

  Yang Jun's arms shook, and he put on his jacket again. He coolly said a sentence and walked out of the classroom to continue his solo practice. It seemed that he had come to the classroom just to say that last sentence to Zong Yin. Zong Yin smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth. In this world, Yang Jun was the first person he truly accepted from the bottom of his heart. Even Zhao Ya Jing didn't leave as deep an impression on him as Yang Jun did.

  "Roll in and cultivate your soul power! I heard you were chased to death yesterday! Now, don't waste any more time training! If you get yourself killed, don't say I'm your master!"

  Heisen saw Zong Yin still dazed at the gate and kicked him in the butt, kicking him into the classroom.

  "Where should I go to find Lanxin?"

  Zong Yin rubbed his butt, staring fiercely at Hei Sen. If it weren't for the last time when the entire class had a fight with him and realized the gap between them, Zong Yin would have definitely rushed up to fight again. After kicking Zong Yin into the classroom, the classroom door slowly began to close, and it was clear that the killer bees were about to come out again. At the last moment of closing the door, Zong Yin thought for a moment and asked.

  Lan Xin didn't know that little loli either and had no idea how to find her, since he was familiar with so many big shots, Hei Sen should know where she was.

  "That little scamp, always neglecting to cultivate her soul power and only knowing how to curry favor in the library... Wait a minute! What are you looking for him for? Are you going to go find Old Man Ye to be your master? You good-for-nothing! Are you dissatisfied with my teaching?"

  Hei Sen's eyebrows furrowed, seemingly at a loss for Blue Xin's unorthodox personality, but halfway through his sentence, his eyes darted to the side as he recalled Ye Feng's words on the martial stage last time - if he wanted to become an apprentice, go find Blue Xin. Was he going to become an apprentice? Then where would Hei Sen's face be?

  Hei Sen just started shouting loudly at this point, but unfortunately his words were not finished yet, the door had already been completely closed, trapping him outside.

  Zong was secretly smiling, seemingly pleased that he could annoy Hei Sen by becoming the old man's disciple. But should he really do it? Immediately, he thought of Ao Fei, who had a proud face and seemed to have cultivated the Nine Yin White Bone Claw, and dispelled the idea from his mind. Fellow disciples were often backstabbers, and he had seen too many examples of people being killed by their own comrades. He didn't want to personally experience it.

  Innumerable killer bees rushed out of Zong Yin's chaotic thoughts, with the queen bee taking the lead and charging forward, targeting Zong Yin. After such a long time together, its limited consciousness clearly recognized that among all people, only Zong Yin had the Bee King's essence on his body.

  In Zong Yin's sigh, a day of cultivation came to an end. After a whole day, he had only formed three strands of soul power, and the control of his Soul Blade was still the same. Wanting to increase the precise control of his three Soul Blades, his spiritual power was somewhat insufficient.

  He let out a deep breath and headed to the library. Currently, if he wanted to greatly increase his strength, he could only focus on cultivating his soul techniques. Logically speaking, it should be possible for him to advance in rank. However, growth-type soul techniques were rare to begin with, and there was no introduction on how to advance in rank in the books either. It just so happened that this time at the library, one reason he went was to see if he could obtain a powerful soul technique through Lan Xin's channels, and the other reason was to find Old Man Fan and ask him how to make his Return to Ancestor advance in rank.

  Just as Zong Yinhai had just left the classroom door, Lan Xin rushed over to him with a huff.

  "I'm exhausted! Old Man Fan and Master are looking for you! Why did they make me run errands?!"

  Lan Xin rushed to Zong Yin's face, full of anger and scolded him. The slightly wrinkled little nose and the crooked mouth made Zong Yin want to pinch them hard.

  But this thought flashed through his mind, which was already filled with the matter of Fan Lao and Ye Feng looking for him. It seemed that he had nothing to do with these two people, and they shouldn't know that he was going to look for them either. What kind of business would require both of them to come together to find him?

  With such doubts, Zong Yin followed Lan Xin's back and entered the deepest teaching building of Ding Sheng Soul School without any obstacles.
