Chapter Twelve: Qin Xuans Invitation

  The technique of inscribing can be applied to tens of thousands of materials, and by combining one or several of these materials with the true yuan of an inscription master, various intricate inscriptions can be created.

  There are 3,600 basic strokes and 4,900 basic seals, through the arrangement and combination of these basic strokes and seals, there is also a series of variants that can form a variety of seal cutting techniques.

  "Quake" pattern is just one of these 3,600 basic patterns.

  Lin Ming naturally knew the "Seismic" pattern, in fact, he knew that the basic patterns were not three thousand six hundred kinds, but more than six thousand kinds, almost twice as many as the basic patterns known to the Tianyuan Continents inscription masters.

  However, Lin Ming was not certain if the "shock" pattern of the Tian Yan continent would be too different from that of the divine realm. He stretched out his right hand, and the true yuan converged to his fingertips, tracing a series of dazzling trajectories in the air. The bright patterns lingered in the air for an instant under the support of the true yuan, and it was this instant of lingering that presented a complete and complex pattern before Qin Xuan and Shifu.

  This process, when Lin Ming was cultivating the Inscription Technique every day, gradually coordinating the memories of the ownerless soul with his own body, now it can be said that it is done in one breath, and it is done with ease.

  Lin Ming asked: "The shock pattern you mentioned is this one?"

  Qin Xingxuan was stunned, while the senior sister first looked at Qin Xingxuan and saw his expression. She naturally confirmed in an instant that this young man was not scribbling randomly - what he drew out really had a "shock" pattern! Wasnt this country bumpkin plus little kid actually also proficient in seal script?

  Qin Xingxuan was indeed surprised, the basic strokes of three thousand six hundred kinds are difficult for beginners to remember completely. Of course, Lin Ming happened to know that the "Zhen" pattern he asked about wasnt unusual, what surprised her was that in a short instant, she casually drew out the "Zhen" pattern with even the light and heavy grasp of energy done effortlessly, just right, this move couldnt be practiced without a lot of hard work.

  "She suppressed her surprise and said, Its this one."

  Lin Mingdao said: "The shock pattern is mainly used for killing and cutting, generally in the use of weapons. When a warrior uses a weapon, he will infuse energy into the weapon. If the energy is directly stored in the weapon to kill the enemy, the amplification is limited. However, if the shock pattern is added, the energy infused by the warrior will vibrate at high speed when passing through the shock pattern, which can increase the penetration power and thus achieve the effect of increasing the sharpness of the weapon..."

  Lin Ming explained the principle of "Zhen" pattern with ease, and Qin Xuan had expected this result. If someone cant even understand the principle of "Zhen" pattern, that would be strange.

  Qin Xingxuan also stirred up her competitive spirit, and she asked: "So, does this classmate still know the drawing method and principle of the flag symbol?" Putting aside the relatively simple basic patterns, Qin Xingxuan inquired about more complex basic symbols. However, these naturally couldnt stump Lin Ming, who actually understood far more complex basic symbols than those on the Tianyun Continent.

  He easily and calmly drew the "flag", although the basic seal was a bit more complicated, but Lin Mings fingers didnt stop for a moment, just in the blink of an eye, a complex seal floated in mid-air, shining brightly.

  At this moment, Qin Xingxuan was thoroughly shocked. The basic seal symbol was twice as complicated as the basic tattoo, and the changes in the energy it contained were also more numerous. Lin Ming could still draw it with ease, which already surpassed Qin Xingxuan himself.

  Genius! This young man is actually a genius at Rune Magic!

  But who did he learn the art of inscriptions from? Judging by his attire, its clear that hes not from a prominent family. Could he be a disciple taught by some reclusive and powerful seniors living deep in the mountains?

  Qin Xingxuan found that Lin Mings body was full of mysteries, she continued to communicate with Lin Ming, the more she communicated, the more surprised she became, and discovered that Lin Ming seemed to be familiar with every single one of the 3,600 basic patterns and 4,900 basic seals, totaling over 8,000 varieties!

  Compared to Qin Xuans astonishment, the senior sister had already been stunned. She listened vaguely to the two people talking about something that was completely heavenly to her, and then saw Qin Xuans constant surprise and admiration.

  The masters sister was very familiar with Qin Xuan, who, despite being polite and courteous to everyone, had a deep-seated arrogance due to her exceptional talent and strength. Prior to this, she had never given such a high evaluation to any of her peers.

  The masters sister was numb and only understood one thing: the little boys attendance certificate would not be collected today.

  Whats wrong with you, kicking the iron plate with just one kick, and pulling out a country bumpkin who is actually a genius of Mingwen!

  The elder sister is really going crazy.

  Gradually, Qin Xuans tone became more and more respectful, from the initial conversational tone to a humble and inquiring one. She found that Lin Mings insights on Mysterious Symbols and Energy Structures also broadened her horizons, sometimes even giving her a feeling of great benefit.

  Qin Xingxuan was even more certain that Lin Ming was a rare talent in the art of inscription, one that appeared only once in a hundred years. And the master behind him must be a grandmaster of his generation, one who would make even his own master pale in comparison!

  What is this young mans origin?

  Qin Xingxuan was filled with interest in Lin Ming, and not to mention that communicating with Lin Ming could benefit himself, just the fact that Lin Ming himself and his mysterious teacher behind him had a significance that was different from the ordinary for the Qin family!

  "Ah, Im afraid we cant chat anymore, my friend," Qin Xuan said with a smile. "The piano lesson is about to begin. It was great talking to you today! If possible, Id like to invite you to have dinner at Da Ming Xuan after the lesson and discuss the principles of seal carving together. Would that be okay?"

  Qin Xuans voice is gentle and her tone is extremely sincere. Coupled with her moving facial expressions, it really makes people hard to refuse.

  Lin Ming didnt want to refuse either, Qin Xuan was not only beautiful and from a good family, but also rare in that she treated people well and didnt have any airs about her. A girl like this really couldnt stir up even half a bit of dislike.

  However, Lin Mings time was really too tight, with only three months left before the assessment of the Seven Wu Sect. He had to use the Inscription Technique to earn money during this period, buy elixirs, inscribe them with talismans, rapidly increase his cultivation, and then smoothly enter the Seven Wu Sect.

  Entering the Seventh Xuanwu Mansion, thats not all, theres also Zhu Yanhu who is staring fiercely. If one doesnt have the power to match Zhu Yan, then without a doubt, they will be trampled miserably!

  Here is the translation:

  Listening to a piano lesson that hes not interested in, then having lunch with a beauty, and maybe even continuing to chat afterwards, half a day would pass by in an instant. Afterwards, its possible that they would exchange contact information, and Qin Xuan might invite him to explore the knowledge of seal carving together another time. For Lin Ming, this was simply a waste of time! After all, he couldnt gain any inspiration or new knowledge from exchanging ideas with Qin Xuan.

  Lin Ming somewhat regretfully declined: "Im really sorry, I still have some things to attend to today and need to head back."

  "Oh……I see." Qin Xingxuan said with a hint of disappointment, when she invited him out, she hadnt thought that she might be rejected. In fact, Qin Xingxuan had never asked someone of the same age and opposite sex to eat with her since she was young, while others asking her out to eat were countless, but she refused everyone except for a limited number of close friends. When refusing others, Qin Xingxuan didnt have any particular feeling, but this time being rejected, she discovered for the first time that the taste of rejection wasnt very pleasant, and it was even a bit humiliating. After all, although she came from a big family, deep down inside, she was just a fifteen-year-old girl.

  Regarding Lin Mings rejection, the eldest sister directly felt that her brain had short-circuited. In her mind, only one thought was left: This guy... this guy actually rejected Qin Xuan!!

  Whoa!

  Cant believe this is happening!

  Is he really a man?!
