Great Thousand Past

The clear light swept outward. Wary, Shi He hurriedly retreated, backing straight out through the stone house's door.

She had actually begun to find Li Qingyun somewhat "reliable." But if he failed this final test, she would immediately take her own life, sinking away with the ancient secret and vanishing.

"This character actually contains a trace of extraordinarily high-level meaning. It seems that anyone other than humans like Shi He is automatically rejected, cut off from the transmission of its meaning! What a Ancestor Binding Heaven..."

Li Qingyun closed his eyes in contemplation. Within his divine sense, waves of mysterious runes surged.

This character was a barrier of "knowledge," but also a form of self-protection for humans like Shi He?

"Just short—always just a little short!"

His divine sense turned. The mysterious clear-light runes attempted to replicate and decipher it, yet he always felt that something was lacking.

It was not that Jade Pure Primordial Lord's level was insufficient, but that his own realm had not caught up.

With a realm comparable to the Sixth Fruit Dao Lord, trying to decipher a trace of ancient meaning from the Haotian Realm was truly asking too much of this humble Daoist.

Yet as he tried again and again, Jade Pure Primordial Lord's feedback also brought him immense gains.

His understanding of the mysteries of the Binding Patterns was rising at a tremendous pace!

"Even if I truly cannot reproduce this character, this humble Daoist's trip will not have been in vain..."

Outside the stone house, the young girl did not blink. She stared fixedly at the Young Daoist priest within, who looked like Jade Pure Divine Radiance but in truth made her feel strangely poisonous and terrifying.

The desolate qi within her condensed into a pellet, ready to detonate at any moment.
