The Ruler
250. Shenghuo Seal Book 2.
" Swhus. swhus.." The three middle-aged figures continued to move, bringing his entourage away from the giant tree.
" Older, why should I go. Badj***n it doesn't even respect you," said the young man who had previously wanted to expel Hu Yan Lan with an annoyed face.
" Young master, you must learn to see how a person reacts. If he was weak, he would not have acted that way." The elder explained.
" But the elder, what if he just gritted us?"
" Young master, no one wants to play around with his life, because only a fool would do that."
" But the elder...."
" That's it. I don't want to cause any trouble. Remember our main unfinished task" said the elder, then brought his entourage to a stop under the giant tree that was two hundred meters away from the tree that Hu Yan Lan was occupying.
From afar.
The young men who got away from that place, could only sigh long, seeing the newly arrived group away.
" With such strength, they still wanted to disturb the elder, truly seeking death."
" At least, the elder was wise. Otherwise, they would be the third group to leave with a loss in cultivation level," another young man chimed in.
****
In that giant tree.
Hu Yan Lan still did not budge from her seat, trying to calm herself down.
" What's the ruler inside." His inner self, tried to contact Qing Ruo but failed.
His sharp eyes kept circling the place, checking the mountain wall, where appeared a failed figure within the mountain.
All the time, there were always people coming out of that place, which marked that they had been killed by the illusionary Monster.
****
Two hundred meters away from where Hu Yan Lan was.
The newly arrived group also did not stop to set their sights on the mountain wall.
" Old man, what really happened? Why did the young warriors get out of that place?"
" Young master, those who failed and were killed inside the mountain, will be thrown out...."
" Then what about Jin Qui's brother and the others?"
" That's what we want to investigate. This was very strange, as his soul jade badge had been shattered, yet his figure did not appear."
" Does that mean my brother Jin Qui and the others are really dead?"
" It is likely so," the elder replied seriously.
" Older, then what are we going to do?"
" Waiting for the gate to open tomorrow morning. Find information about their whereabouts to everyone in this place."
" Good elder."
****
At the base of Ping Xie mountain.
Qing Ruo sat quietly, studying the open courtyard of Shenghuo's scripture seal, which contained explanations regarding the various types of holy marks and their rules.
Five minutes later the pages of the book closed again, making Qing Ruo who was trying to understand the contents of the book so miserable.
" It's very difficult" he said, sighing long, because he had to wait another five hours and that was with a different page.
After the page of the book closed, Qing Ruo then used her time to understand the incomplete pages of the book she had learned.
" What emerges from the main page is the big picture, not the details. It really requires a high level of understanding." Qing Ruo.
*****
Three days later.
Inside the palace hall of Ping Xie mountain peak. Shenghuo Congming and Shenghuo Zhuanjia who were relaxing were suddenly startled by the appearance of eight young men trying to enter the palace stairs.
" Brother, there is another who managed to come" Shenghuo Zhuanjia said, then moved away from the palace hall, looking at the figure who was trying to pass through the golden stairs.
" Swhus. swhus." his figure arrived in front of the palace steps, staring at the eight youths who were looking for a way to enter through the stairs.
" Brother, what should we do?" asked a young man to his entourage.
" Brother, I don't know either. Our two brothers have vanished in it, are we going to keep pushing ourselves." Looking at the black light in front of him.
" Swhuss.." his figure suddenly sucked up and vanished, leaving a mist of blood splashing out from the black light.
" Oh no, this light can kill" said the young man in fear, leaving them speechless.
Not long after, an irregular ancient rhyme emerged from that light.
" Brother, to be able to enter the palace, we must be able to pass through this light. If not, we can only study the ancient rhyme," eating the ancient writing that sometimes appears and disappears in the light.
" If so, fine." Then take a stance and sit in front of the golden ladder.
In the palace.
Shenghuo Zhuanjia and Shenghuo Congming looked at the new group smiling leisurely.
" Without Shenghuo's green Jade badge, you will never be able to enter this palace" Shenghuo Zhuanjia said.
" It seems like they are not as lucky as Ruo er who found the jade badge in the forbidden forest," Shenghuo Congming said, looking at the young man leisurely.
*****
Somewhere else.
In front of the mountain wall.
" Shwus ..." the figure of the young man who entered the circle of light earlier, appeared in that place.
" It turned out that I was rejected" he said sadly, then slowly, moving away from the place.
" Swhus...." Two young men from the Jin Clan approached him.
" Sister, sorry to interrupt. What's really going on inside?" Asked the young man from the Jin clan seriously.
" I was rejected by the peak palace," the young man replied, while giving a detailed explanation, making the two youths of the Jin clan speechless.
" Sister, thank you for the explanation," then returned to his entourage.
Not far from that place.
Hu Yan Lan who eavesdropped on the young man's conversation nodded her head.
" That means the ruler is accepted by the palace," his inner being pleased.
****
The base of Ping Xie mountain.
On that third day, Qing Ruo had studied the four main pages of the book and left the last page that really required a high level of comprehension.
" Swhus.." Shenghuo Zhuanjia's figure appeared at that place.
" Guru, Qing Ruo said respectfully.
" Ruo er, how is it?"
" I am still repeating the last main page of the book, teacher," Qing Ruo replied respectfully.
" What do you understand?"
" The power comes from light and darkness. Light has the power to dispel the dark and vice versa, darkness has the power to extinguish light. And these two forces each have a life."
" Right, what we're learning now is the power of light itself, then what do you understand?"
" The power of light manifesting itself in a physical form understood as a visible holy sign, turned out to have a very weak power, just like the explanation of the previous master, but unlike the light that does not manifest its existence, it turns out to have an unstoppable power. Since it has no life, then to move and use its power was created a rule in the form of a sacred seal."
" Right, the last page of the book that explains how to use the technique does require a high level of understanding, if it is easy, then everyone will be able to learn it, so understand it completely," shenghuo Zhuanjia said happily.
" Good teacher."
" Ruo er, is there a question?"
" No, teacher."
" If so, I'll go first."
" Good Teacher."
" Swhuss ..." Shenghuo Zhuanjia's figure, again vanished from that place.
Qing Ruo who was about to master the book let out a long sigh, while waiting for the pages of the book that were still not open, hoping to be able to finish them immediately.
