Chapter 270: Chapter 31: Green Stone Martial Talisman
Everyone continued to stroll through the Xuanming Hall, chatting and laughing until they reached the third floor.
“Make way, make way, don’t block our prince’s path!”
At that moment, a group of a dozen or so guards came strutting over, forcibly parting the crowd.
A young nobleman, about twenty years old, walked towards the interior of the third floor, amidst stars surrounding the moon.
“It’s the third son of Prince Taixuan.”
Someone spoke up. The newcomer had no ordinary status. Prince Taixuan was of distinguished lineage, shrouded in prestige, with all his offspring holding titles. No one dared to provoke such people easily.
After these people had entered, Lin Feng and the others also made their way inside.
At this moment, a small auction was taking place on the third floor.
The auction was bustling with excitement, but the prices of many items were so exorbitant that Lin Feng and the others soon left.
Returning to their lodgings, Lin Feng took out the green jade stone and said, “Fire Kirin, take a look, what is this green jade stone?”
The Fire Kirin squinted and replied, “Sleeping, no time.”
“Aren’t you curious?” Lin Feng asked.
The Fire Kirin was indeed a bit curious; it lifted its head to look at the green jade stone in Lin Feng’s hand.
Suddenly, it jumped up, its eyes widening in surprise as it exclaimed, “What is this?”
Seeing the Fire Kirin’s reaction, it seemed the green jade stone was no simple matter.
The Fire Kirin had already hopped over and said, “Quick, let me take a look at that jade stone.”
Lin Feng then tossed the jade stone to the Fire Kirin.
The Fire Kirin flipped it over and over, growing more and more astonished, and said, “It really is that kind of thing.”
“What exactly is it?” Lin Feng asked, unable to contain his curiosity.
“Where did you find it? Are there any more like it?” The Fire Kirin responded with a question of its own.
“I found it at a trading market. That was the only green jade stone in the store. I bought it because the demonic bead pulsed for a moment,” Lin Feng explained.
The Fire Kirin said, “It’s not strange that this thing would cause a reaction from the demonic bead.”
“But what is it?” Lin Feng pressed, eager to know.
“Martial Talisman,” the Fire Kirin answered.
“Martial Talisman? What is a Martial Talisman?” Lin Feng looked at the Fire Kirin, puzzled, as this was the first time he had heard of a Martial Talisman.
“Have you ever heard of the Martial Soul Evolution theory?” The Fire Kirin asked Lin Feng.
Lin Feng nodded and said, “I have heard of it. Martial Souls are ranked from First Grade to Tenth Grade, and with some special treasures, you can evolve a Martial Soul. If it’s a Tenth Grade Martial Soul, they usually have very frightening abilities. Like my Devouring Martial Soul, when I tested it, it was a Tenth Grade Martial Soul. Later, after I had devoured some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, my Devouring Martial Soul became three, completing its first evolution!”
The Fire Kirin nodded and said, “Exactly, that’s Martial Soul Evolution. You indeed have a defiant kind of fortune to have devoured such potent treasures, completing the first Martial Soul Evolution. However, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures can only lead to the first evolution of a Martial Soul. Even consuming more, including Daluo Immortal Pills, you can not accomplish the second Martial Soul Evolution.”
Lin Feng’s expression changed slightly as he asked, “Didn’t you say before that my Martial Soul could transform and eventually produce up to ten Devouring Martial Souls? Now, only three Devouring Martial Souls have appeared, and it can no longer evolve?”
“I did not say your Martial Soul can’t continue to evolve,” the Fire Kirin replied, “I just said that consuming Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures won’t allow you to evolve again.”
“The resistance of a Martial Soul to Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures is immense. Even during the first Martial Soul Evolution, eighty percent of cultivators will fail when consuming them. Thus, completing your Martial Soul Evolution was very fortunate indeed. Taking Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures a second time leaves no possibility for evolution,” the Fire Kirin exclaimed!
“If Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures can’t induce a Martial Soul’s evolution, then how can a Martial Soul continue to evolve?” Lin Feng asked, puzzled.
The Fire Kirin shook the green jade stone in its grip, “The secret lies right here. Martial Talismans can cause a cultivator’s Martial Soul to evolve again!”
