Chapter 1190: Spatial True Understanding, Relic Closing
Editor: Henyee Translations
In the grand hall filled with chaotic spatial energy, Jiang Chengxuan collected the last drop of spatial essence, a joyful expression spreading across his face.
This haul was incredibly precious to him. With these spatial essences, he could finally attempt to unlock some advanced alchemical recipes. He also suspected that there might be applications for these essences hidden in the ancient texts from the first inner hall of the Shui Xian Sect.
This spatial essence was arguably the greatest treasure Jiang Chengxuan had acquired on this journey.
“Who would have thought we could find such a fortune? All thanks to Daoist Jiang’s skills!” Yin Qiao praised, his heart filled with joy, almost instinctively complimenting Jiang Chengxuan.
Jiang Chengxuan could only smile wryly at the repeated praise.
“We owe it to your map as well; it was a mutual effort,” he responded modestly, shifting the topic. “Let’s check out the top of this skull.”
With that, he led the eager duo towards the top of the massive skull. However, a strange power anchored the void, forcing them to proceed on foot.
After walking for a while, they noticed something peculiar. Despite their efforts to move forward, they kept seeing the same markings they had left, indicating they were circling back to their starting point—an astonishing realization for three powerful immortals.
“This…” Yin Qiao and Jin Dashan were speechless, their excitement fading. No matter how mysterious the treasure, if they couldn’t access its true power, taking it away would be a futile dream.
Jiang Chengxuan also pondered deeply. The skull’s strange power had ensnared them without them noticing, leaving no clues. Suddenly, a thought struck him—an image from when they first entered. He recalled the streams of spatial essence flowing down the skull, pooling into the essence lake below. This might be the path they needed to follow.
“I have an idea, follow me,” Jiang Chengxuan said with a smile, breaking the silence.
Yin Qiao and Jin Dashan, now fully trusting Jiang Chengxuan, followed him without hesitation. Jiang Chengxuan took a small amount of spatial essence and let it flow down the skull, gently nudging it with his celestial power.
As the essence began to move, Jiang Chengxuan led the way, followed closely by the duo. They soon realized the wisdom in his plan, marveling at his ingenuity.
“Brilliant, truly brilliant! Daoist Jiang, you’re a genius!” Yin Qiao exclaimed, eyes gleaming with admiration.
Jiang Chengxuan could only smile and shake his head at the praise. He continued following the silver trail left by the spatial essence. After a while, the trail connected with one of the original streams of spatial essence flowing down the skull. Seeing this, the trio exchanged joyous glances, knowing they were on the right path.
Without further ado, they followed the silver trail upwards. The surroundings gradually changed, confirming they were moving in the right direction. Energized by their progress, they moved swiftly, soon reaching a vast, silver-white platform.
The platform was flat and empty, save for a prominent cone-shaped silver stele in the center. Without hesitation, they approached the stele, maintaining their guard but encountering no traps or barriers.
The silver stele was inscribed with mysterious symbols and text, glowing with divine light and emitting an aura of profound power.
“Let’s decipher this,” Jiang Chengxuan said, spreading his senses and using his divination skills to interpret the inscriptions.
For a cultivator, understanding symbols and texts was often possible through spiritual insight, even if the language was unknown.
