The Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman

"Oh? You want to see the number one relic?" Elder Jian Ge glanced at Yi Yun in surprise, then smiled slightly.

Instead of giving Yi Yun the number one jade slip, he asked with great interest, "Little guy, what are your goals for the future? Or what realm do you want to cultivate to?"

What will be the future realm?

Yi Yun was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously shook his head. He really hadn't thought about what his future cultivation goals would be.

"Hmm?" Elder Jian Ge frowned slightly upon hearing this. "No target?"

Yi Yun thought for a moment and said, "It's not that I don't have a goal, it's just that I don't know how far I can cultivate. I'll strive towards whatever level I can reach."

Yi Yun knew that in this world, sages were already extraordinary, but sages were far from the end of martial arts; above sages, there were Great Emperor.

Is there anything above the Great Emperor? Yi Yun didn't know.

The path of martial arts is like climbing a mountain; only by standing higher can you see further. Of course, for Yi Yun at present, the realm above the level of sages is almost equivalent to a legendary realm, which Yi Yun would never mention, as that would be too outrageous.

Yi Yun knew that the Purple Crystal was an extraordinary divine object. With his current weak perception, the Primordial Relic Medicine was nowhere to be found in front of the Purple Crystal. Even the Human Race Sage, who focused all their perception on themselves, could not find the slightest trace of the Purple Crystal.

The abilities that Purple Crystal is currently demonstrating are far beyond the level of a sage.

Having such a treasure within myself, how can I merely take sages and saints as my role models?

Elder Jian Ge was unaware of the extent of Yi Yun's ambitions, but the goals Yi Yun had just stated were already very satisfying to Elder Jian Ge.

He knew that Yi Yun's talent had many shortcomings, but that didn't matter; a martial artist should have aspirations, regardless of whether they could be achieved.

When Elder Jian Ge was young, he aspired to become a sage. Many at the time thought he was delusional; how could a sage, who only appeared once every five hundred years in the Tai'a Divine Kingdom, possibly be his?

Many people mocked him for overestimating his abilities, but in the end, those who mocked him have all grown old and died, turning into bones.

Elder Jian Ge, however, rose step by step to become a powerful ruler, then to the peak of the powerful ruler, and finally to Human Race Sage.

It's not laughable to have lofty dreams. What's laughable is those who have no dreams yet mock those who pursue them.

"This is the number one jade slip in the Heavenly Realm. Take a look and see how far you are from your dreams!"

As Elder Jian Ge spoke, he tossed a jade slip to Yi Yun.

This jade slip is entirely golden and much smaller than the previous one.

Yi Yun's senses were deeply immersed in it...

Then, he saw just the first thing, and his eyes were glued to it.

Does such a divine object still exist in this world?

"Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman - Price: 32 Glory Points, 50,000 Dragon Scale Rune!"

The price alone made Yi Yun gasp – expensive! Too expensive!

Yi Yun only received three Glory Points for submitting the Heavenly Auspicious Purple Sun Ginseng. However, Elder Jian Ge said that the Heavenly Auspicious Purple Sun Ginseng submitted by Yi Yun was severely damaged and its value was only one-third of its original value.

Therefore, the Glory Points that could be obtained by submitting the complete Heavenly Auspicious Purple Sun Ginseng might be nine.

However, the price of the Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman is almost four times that of the Heavenly Essence Purple Sun!

In addition, we need 50,000 Dragon Scale Rune!

Such a precious thing, yet its description is only one sentence --

"The Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman can transform a person's physique, increase their affinity with the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, and enhance their martial arts talent."

Increase martial arts talent...

That last sentence alone was enough to captivate Yi Yun!

The fact that such a drug existed in the world truly surprised Yi Yun!

Yi Yun's comprehension was not bad. Having lived two lives, his soul power was extremely strong, and he had no shortage of elixirs and relics for cultivation.

Although there are no cultivation techniques available, we can still try to find them.

The only thing that frustrated Yi Yun was his lack of talent in martial arts.

He transmigrated into the body of an ordinary young man from the Great Wilderness, whose talent was truly mediocre.

Yi Yun didn't know exactly how much talent this Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman could increase, but he believed that the price offered by Tai'a Divine City was fair. Since it was priced at 32 Glory Points and 50,000 Dragon Scale Rune, it should be worth the price.

"Hmm? You've found something you like?"

Elder Jian Ge noticed the change in Yi Yun's expression.

"This junior would like to ask the senior, is there any restriction on cultivation level when consuming the Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman described in the Heavenly Jade Slip No. 1?"

"The Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman? Haha!" Elder Jian Ge laughed loudly, "So that's what you've got your eye on! There are no cultivation restrictions when taking the Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman; your Purple Blood Realm is already sufficient. This Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman is an extraordinary item. It's a special Savage Bone Relic refined from the Savage Beast Bones, but... it wasn't refined by my Tai'a Divine Kingdom... To be precise, the current Savage Heaven Master of the Tai'a Divine Kingdom cannot refine relics of this level."

"Oh?" Yi Yun was taken aback. "Even the Savage Heaven Master of the Tai'a Divine Kingdom couldn't refine it?"

"Yes, the Savage Heaven Technique is profound and complex. There are only a handful of Sage-level Savage Heaven Master in the Tai'a Divine Kingdom, and none of them have studied the crafting of the Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman."

Elder Jian Ge sighed, "This world is vast. Beyond the Tai'a Divine Kingdom, there are other divine kingdoms, as well as some incredibly powerful Saint-level Lineage and sects! This Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman was crafted by a Saint-level Lineage, and the Tai'a Divine Kingdom has a deep connection with this Lineage."

In Elder Jian Ge's brief description, Yi Yun heard a lot of information that shocked him.

Saint-level Lineage! Saint-level sect!

What must it be like to be part of such a super-powerful force that has been passed down for countless millennia?

For some reason, Yi Yun suddenly thought of Lin Xin Tong.

What kind of Lineage is the Lin family, to which Lin Xin Tong comes from? Is the Lin family located within the Tai'a Divine Kingdom? Or does it originate from a more expansive divine land beyond the Tai'a Divine Kingdom?

Thinking about these vast and distant things is useless now; his primary goal is to obtain this Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman.

"Hey kid, you've got big ambitions! Something like the Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman, just the price alone would scare a lot of people away! But the Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman only has the most significant effect the first time you take it. After that, the effect will be much weaker, and the better the talent of the person taking it, the lower its efficacy will be."

After hearing Elder Jian Ge's explanation, Yi Yun understood; so that's how it is.

It seems that even for some extraordinary geniuses, taking this Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman has no effect.

At Yi Yun's current rate of accumulating Glory Points, it's obviously not easy to exchange for the Heavenly Mandate Bone Talisman. As for the Primordial Relic Medicine, capturing it once is already the limit. Not to mention that he can't capture it a second time, even if he did, he wouldn't dare to hand it over again.

So it seems that the best way to accumulate Glory Points is to break the records of predecessors, especially those hard records that can leave a mark on the Sage's Grand Path!

These records represent Yi Yun's goals!

"Elder Jian Ge, this junior wishes to exchange for the first three volumes of the <Tai'a Sacred Law>!"

Yi Yun stated his decision: one must take things one step at a time. If Yi Yun wanted to break the record of the Sage's Grand Path, he first needed to master the <Tai'a Sacred Law> to elevate his strength to a higher level.

That afternoon, Yi Yun bid farewell to Elder Jian Ge and returned to his residence, where he planned his cultivation for the next six months.

At this time, Yi Yun was unaware that the news of his discovery of a Primordial Relic Medicine and the reward of Glory Points had spread like wildfire throughout Tai'a Divine City!

The warriors of Tai'a Divine City are generally devoted to cultivation. They usually spend their time meditating, fighting, or hunting wild beasts.

They rarely bother to gather together and spread rumors, because they're not interested.

Once something spreads, it's naturally a major event! The news spread wider and wider, and even many of the top-ranked figures in Tai'a Divine City heard about it.

At this moment, in the blacksmith's workshop of Tai'a Divine City, Zhou Kui, shirtless and revealing his strong muscles, was swinging a forging hammer taller than a person as he worked hard to forge iron.

Beside Zhou Kui several members of the Black Tortoise Legion, all of whom were burly and robust, looking nothing like thirteen or fourteen-year-old boys.

"Hey! Ha! Hey! Ha!"

These men, chanting in unison, were forging a special type of steel that required millions of folds and hammerings, their movements quite rhythmic.
