Chapter 268 The Power of Runes
"My martial spirit?"
Raven's eyes lit up, and she looked up in surprise.
But when she thought about the state of her martial soul, her eyes dimmed instantly. She lowered her head, her little fingers fidgeting nervously, unsure of what to do.
She suddenly felt a little scared.
He was afraid that Brother Ye and Sister Xue'er would show disappointment when they saw his martial soul.
Because her broken sword martial spirit is a useless martial spirit.
This was the judgment made by the Spirit Hall deacon who had given him a free Spirit Awakening when he was awakening his own.
Although she was somewhat unconvinced, she had to admit that the other party's judgment seemed to be correct.
At least so far.
Her broken sword martial spirit is indeed utterly useless.
Even after studying it for more than a year, she still couldn't find anything useful.
Because it really breaks at the slightest touch.
Definitely a useless martial spirit.
Seeing that Raven hadn't summoned her martial soul yet and was looking down, seemingly lost in thought, Ye Qifeng and Qian Renxue weren't in a hurry and waited patiently.
But the group of Xiao Liu and his friends behind Raven were getting impatient. They all felt that this was a huge opportunity for Raven.
Raven's martial soul has a problem; perhaps the two adults on the other side have a way to solve it?
Even if that's not possible, surely we can help Raven hunt for a spirit ring and help her become a true spirit master?
If the two adults could take a liking to Raven and take her out to train her properly, that would be even better.
Thinking of this, Xiao Qi, whose face was bruised and swollen, couldn't help but take a step forward, wanting to tell the two adults opposite her in detail about the Ruiwen Martial Soul.
However, he was stopped.
But Xiao Liu reached out and stopped Xiao Qi, shaking his head at him.
Although Xiao Liu was also a little anxious, he believed that this was a rare opportunity for Raven, even a chance to change her destiny.
But she still gave Xiaoqi a look that said not to meddle, implying that this was Raven's own business and we shouldn't say anything to avoid offending the two important figures and missing a good opportunity.
Xiaoqi quickly understood her friend's suggestive look. After making a few sounds, she immediately shut her mouth and remained silent.
As Raven struggled with her thoughts, Qian Renxue's gentle, ethereal voice suddenly rang in her ear:
"Little Raven, we heard that you awakened innate full soul power, but your martial soul was deemed a useless one, is that right?"
Upon hearing this, Raven immediately looked up in shock, her small mouth agape as if it could fit a small egg.
Then, with a look of disbelief on her face, she asked:
"Sister Xue'er, how...how did you all know?"
A beautiful smile appeared on Qian Renxue's face as she smiled back at her without saying a word.
However, Ye Qifeng, who was standing next to her, answered Raven's question for her.
Ye Qifeng pointed to his ear and told her:
"Your sister Xue'er and I are both Soul Masters, and we have excellent hearing. We heard what your opponent, um, that guy named Cheng Xin, said just now."
After a pause, Ye Qifeng looked at Raven, who had a look of sudden realization, and asked softly:
"That guy Cheng Xin said your martial spirit is a broken sword?"
"Yes, that's right."
Raven gave a soft "hmm" and nodded her little head, feeling slightly relieved and no longer worried or afraid.
It turns out that Brother Ye and Sister Xue'er already knew that my martial soul was a useless one. Instead of being disappointed in me, they seemed quite interested in it.
Isn't a useless martial soul a martial soul?
Why are Brother Ye and Sister Xue'er so interested?
I don't understand.
A few question marks popped into Raven's little head. She thought and thought but couldn't figure out what the two were up to. However, she was a smart child and very eager to learn, so she asked questions whenever she didn't understand.
So she immediately asked in a crisp voice:
"Brother Ye, Sister Xue'er, why are you so interested in my Broken Sword Martial Soul?"
"The Soul Master who awakened my Martial Soul before said that it was just a useless, worthless Martial Soul."
As she spoke, Raven's voice gradually lowered.
The fact that her martial soul was a useless one was a huge blow to her, almost becoming a knot in her heart.
Whenever this matter is mentioned, she can't seem to get emotional.
"A useless martial spirit?"
Ye Qifeng gave her a mysterious smile and said, "That's not necessarily true, Little Ruiwen."
"what?"
Raven suddenly raised her head, looking at the handsome Brother Ye with a bewildered and surprised expression, her little face still showing a downcast look.
Seeing the downcast expression on Raven's face, Qian Renxue felt a pang of sympathy. She knelt down, gently stroked Raven's slightly disheveled silver-gray hair, and added to her:
"Little Raven, you don't need to feel sad."
"You need to know one thing: a martial soul with innate full soul power can never be a useless martial soul."
"The reason why your Broken Sword Martial Soul was judged as a useless Martial Soul is most likely because it has some kind of flaw."
"My Broken Sword Martial Soul isn't a useless Martial Soul? Is it because it has a flaw?"
After listening to Qian Renxue's words, Raven murmured to herself, "What is a martial soul defect? I don't understand yet."
But at least she understood that her martial soul was not a useless one.
This was probably the best news she had heard since her martial soul awakened.
Raven was thrilled and immediately asked in surprise:
"Sister Xue'er, is this true?"
"Yes, it's definitely true."
Qian Renxue nodded firmly and said softly to her:
"Isn't your Broken Sword Martial Soul supposed to shatter at the slightest touch? I think that must be the flaw in your Martial Soul."
"By the way, I should mention that your brother Ye and I both know quite a bit about martial spirits, especially your brother Ye, he's really amazing."
Huh? Xiaoxue actually praised me? Wasn't she resentful towards me? Wasn't she still bothered by losing to me in the theory of martial spirits?
I remember she always insisted on beating me. Now she's actually praising me? That's amazing.
Ye Qifeng, who was standing to the side listening to the two talking in hushed tones, suddenly had a strange expression on his face.
Qian Renxue had no idea what Ye Qifeng was thinking at that moment. She was still speaking softly to Ruiwen:
"Little Ruiwen, release your martial spirit, and we'll help you see what the root cause of its defects is."
"Perhaps we can find a solution."
"Okay, sure."
Raven's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she nodded repeatedly, eagerly saying:
"I will summon it now."
As soon as he finished speaking...
Raven stretched out her right hand and, with a thought, began to summon her martial spirit.
next moment.
A faint green light suddenly flickered.
A strange broken sword appeared in Raven's right hand, hovering gently above her palm.
"Brother Ye, Sister Xue'er, this is my martial soul."
Raven held the martial spirit in her palm, raised it, and showed it to Ye Qifeng and Qian Renxue.
Ye Qifeng gathered his thoughts, concealing his strange expression, and focused his gaze on Raven's martial spirit.
In Raven's right palm was a half-broken sword.
It is only half; apart from the hilt, the rest is part of the blade and the sword edge.
The blade is less common than the hilt.
It is easy to see that this is one half of a giant sword, with the tip missing.
The broken sword is bluish-green in color and looks somewhat broken, as if it is composed of small fragments.
Besides.
The broken sword was engraved with a dense array of mysterious symbols, which at first glance seemed to be filled with mysterious flowing light and were extremely profound.
"It really is it."
Looking at the broken sword in Raven's hand, Ye Qifeng's eyes narrowed slightly. He was all too familiar with this broken sword.
Beside her, Qian Renxue rested her chin on her jade hand, her beautiful eyes fixed on the broken sword in Raven's palm, her face full of surprise.
She looked at it carefully, again and again.
Aside from a vague feeling that the mysterious symbols on the sword seemed somewhat unusual, there was nothing else to be seen.
With a slight thought, she condensed a wisp of soul power, which lingered on her slender fingertips. Then, she carefully approached and gently touched Raven's martial soul.
Sudden.
A soft thud.
Suddenly, the broken sword in Raven's palm shattered into countless fragments. The green light on the fragments flickered a few times before dissipating into the air.
Qian Renxue was stunned.
Even touching with soul power can cause a martial soul to shatter?
Raven and her friends, on the other hand, didn't react much; they were already used to it.
Despite the broken sword, Raven didn't think much of it. With a thought, the broken sword's spirit reappeared in her right palm.
This soft sound brought Ye Qifeng back to his senses.
At this moment, Qian Renxue glanced at him and asked softly:
"Xiao Feng, have you discovered anything?"
"I tested it with my soul power, but Xiao Ruiwen's martial soul shattered into soul light and dissipated the moment I touched it."
"I've made a discovery."
Ye Qifeng nodded gently in response.
Qian Renxue's eyes lit up upon hearing this, but seeing that he didn't elaborate, she didn't ask any further questions.
Shifting his gaze, Ye Qifeng looked at Ruiwen and found that her expression was normal, unlike other Soul Masters who suffered a backlash due to the shattering of their Martial Soul.
Just in case, he still asked:
"Little Raven, when your martial spirit shattered, did you feel any discomfort anywhere?"
"Huh? I don't feel anything."
Raven looked up at her, puzzled.
That's good.
This shows that even if Raven's martial spirit is shattered, it will not affect her.
Ye Qifeng breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, a few questions inevitably arose in my mind.
Is this a characteristic of a martial soul?
Or is it some kind of protection mechanism?
Or is it a manifestation of the attributes or power attached to a martial soul?
The mysterious symbols engraved on the broken sword seem rather strange, like some kind of rule or power.
Ye Qifeng pondered silently.
Perhaps we could try to capture a fragment of the broken sword, pull it into the Yin-Yang space, analyze it, and see what kind of power it contains.
Yes, you can use mental energy to cover it up, as long as you're fast enough.
This method should be feasible.
Be determined in your heart.
Without further thought, Ye Qifeng immediately took action.
First, one must push one's mental energy to its limit, bringing it to its most concentrated, active, and perceptive state.
At the same time, prepare to make a fingerprint to activate the Yin-Yang mark.
Then, he reached out and pointed a finger at the broken sword floating above Raven's palm.
boom!
A soft sound.
The moment their fingertips touched, the broken sword shattered into a shower of green light.
With lightning speed, Ye Qifeng spotted the brightest fragment of the broken sword and unleashed a surge of spiritual power, entangling, covering, and enveloping it.
At the same time, the other hand quickly forms a hand seal to communicate with the Yin and Yang space.
The Yin-Yang mark between the eyebrows flashes and disappears in a flash.
Suddenly, I sensed the powerful spiritual energy emanating from Ye Qifeng.
Qian Renxue, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but tremble slightly. She quickly turned around to look at him and happened to see the fleeting black and white mark between his eyebrows.
"That's... a divine seal?"
Qian Renxue's mouth dropped open, she stared in disbelief, utterly shocked.
She was all too familiar with that mark.
Divine Seal, short for the mark of divine inheritance.
All those who accept the test of divine inheritance will be given an inheritance mark, which will be displayed between their eyebrows.
For example, their angel family, the ancestral god of a thousand families, the mark of the angel god's inheritance is a golden six-winged angel mark.
All members of a thousand families who have passed the inheritance test of the Angel God will be bestowed with an Angel God Seal by the God Ancestor Angel God.
but
The minimum requirement for the Angel God's inheritance assessment is to reach the Soul Saint realm in order to be eligible to receive the inheritance.
When did Xiao Feng get a divine seal?
Has he already gained the favor of some deity and begun his inheritance?
What the hell?
How old is he? He's already starting to inherit divine power?
Can't you?
Speaking of which, the mark between Xiao Feng's eyebrows seems to be black and white. Which deity is that?
No, I need to find some time to ask Xiaofeng properly.
Qian Renxue was both shocked and incredulous.
In short.
I was completely stunned.
Just as Qian Renxue was mistaking the Yin-Yang Seal for a divine seal.
Ye Qifeng had already entered the Yin-Yang Space within the Spirit Sea, carrying the fragments of Raven's Broken Sword Martial Soul.
The moment he entered the Yin-Yang Space, Ye Qifeng immediately used the power of the space to seal and suppress the broken sword fragments that emitted a greenish-blue light, to prevent them from dissipating further.
Surprisingly, the process went exceptionally smoothly.
It should be said that it was a piece of cake.
In fact, the broken sword fragment was already under his absolute control when it entered this space. There was no need to deliberately use the power of the Yin-Yang Space to seal and suppress it; it would not dissipate no matter what.
Ye Qifeng couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, apart from Ah Yin, the Blue Silver Emperor who had not regained consciousness, no one else saw it in the Yin-Yang Space.
Composing himself, Ye Qifeng sat cross-legged in the void, reached out and drew the broken sword fragments he had brought with him to his eyes, and used the secondary skill of the Yin-Yang Heavenly Art, Yin-Yang Analysis.
We began to analyze it.
Not long after.
Ye Qifeng got the answer he wanted.
It was expected, yet not unexpected.
Looking at the small, familiar yet unfamiliar symbol floating before me—no, it should be a rune.
That's right.
The runes were extracted from the fragments of Riven's broken sword spirit.
The power emanating from it is the power of rules.
The power of runes!
