Wu Yun: What Bad Intentions Could I Possibly Have? I'm Just a Good Big Brother Who Cares About His Little Sister
Before long, Wu Yun had finished setting up the talisman array!
Pouring the Yang Yuan Stones into the talisman array and activating it with spiritual power would crush the stones, gather the Yanggang Qi within them, and condense it into Elixir Pills.
In the blink of an eye, an entire roomful of Yang Yuan Stones had turned into crystal-clear red pills.
"That's incredible, Big Brother. What kind of array is this?"
"The Spirit Transformation Talisman Array!"
Wu Yun had learned this Yang Yuan Pill refining array from Yan Xuan.
Talisman arrays themselves were not difficult. The difficult part was knowing the corresponding runes.
The Spirit Transformation Talisman Array mainly involved three kinds of runes: gravity, Spirit Gathering, and smelting!
However, the runes Yan Xuan had taught Wu Yun were all the most basic ones, with extremely simple structures. Take the Spirit Gathering Rune, for example—compared with the Original Spirit Gathering Talisman in Wu Yun's Original Talisman Scripture, it had been simplified by an unknown number of times.
As for the gravity and smelting runes, Wu Yun had also found corresponding Primal Talisman Scripts in the Original Talisman Scripture.
After comparing them, Wu Yun discovered that these runes only possessed the rough outline of the Primal Talisman Scripts. They could barely serve their purpose, but their effects were vastly inferior to the Primal Talisman Scripts.
The runes on Wu Yun and Lin Dong's Natal Spirit Talismans were likewise somewhat more complex than these basic runes, yet they were nowhere near as profound and intricate as the Primal Talisman Scripts.
Likewise, Wu Yun found the corresponding Primal Talisman Script in the Original Talisman Scripture.
Its name was "Devouring!"
"The quality of these pills is practically the same as those refined by the Stone Talisman, and there seem to be even more of them!"
Lin Dong picked up a pill and examined it closely.
"Of course!" Wu Yun nodded with a smile.
The three runes he had used were all Primal Talisman Scripts, so their effects were far superior to anything Master Yan and the like could produce.
The Stone Talisman consumed part of the energy, while the talisman array did not. Thus, on average, five Yang Yuan Stones could be refined into two pills.
That was only because he had yet to fully master the three runes, and the ones he inscribed were not perfect. Otherwise, both the efficiency and quality could improve further! After the refining was complete, Wu Yun put the talismans bearing the Primal Talisman Scripts into his Cosmic Bag and erased the runes on the ground.
The Primal Talisman Scripts were now one of his trump cards. He could not let too many people know about them.
Wu Yun felt that if he could master all these runes, becoming the Symbol Ancestor might not be impossible.
"Lin Dong, ask your big brother for those three talismans so we can take a look."
Little Mink secretly transmitted his voice to Lin Dong.
The runes Wu Yun had displayed while arranging the talisman array had been more complex than every rune Little Mink knew.
The intricacy of a rune could basically represent its strength.
Little Mink even felt that the runes Wu Yun had just used might rival runes above the Ancestral Talismans.
After all, he had once seen an incomparably intricate rune on a person covered in flames. It was said to be an Ancestral Talisman!
"Hurry up and ask! Consider it a favor Lord Mink owes you!"
Little Mink urged him! Lin Dong frowned. It was not that he found it difficult to ask his big brother, but that he did not want this little rodent setting its sights on him.
"Big Brother, I want to look at the three talismans you used just now. The runes on them are so complicated. Could you lend them to me for study?"
"Of course. If you like them, I'll simply give them to you. It's just that these runes are too complex, and studying them takes too much time and effort. I think your cultivation is more important right now, and there's no need to study such things. These three runes will not greatly improve your strength!"
Wu Yun handed the three talismans to Lin Dong, then looked at Lin Dong's hand with a meaningful smile.
Lin Dong rarely took the initiative to ask him for anything!
That foolish mink had definitely told him to do this.
"Thank you, Big Brother. I'm just curious and want to take a look. If I can't figure them out, I won't obsess over them!"
"Mm, all right. Hurry up and put away the pills. Your grandfather, father, and Qing Tan will all arrive in Flame City today. Let's go pick them up together. If we're late, Qing Tan will probably complain about us again."
"Wonderful! From now on, we'll all live in Flame City."
Lin Residence!
"Brother Wu Yun, Brother Lin Dong, where did you two go? Our family finished moving, and only then did you! finally! show! up!"
Qing Tan puffed out her cheeks angrily.
She had excitedly come to Flame City and brought many good things for her two brothers, thinking she would see them as soon as she arrived. Who would have thought that after getting here, she searched everywhere but could not find them? She had no idea which room her two brothers had hidden away in again.
Lin Dong said solemnly, "Qing Tan, don't be unreasonable. Big Brother and I went to handle important matters!"
Wu Yun sighed. He had no choice but to speak in an utterly considerate tone, "Second Brother, how can you say that about little sister Qing Tan? We were the ones who failed to pick her up right away and made her wait anxiously. You wouldn't want to return to Qingyang Town only to be unable to find little sister Qing Tan and the others anywhere, would you?"
"Qing Tan, your two brothers were in the wrong. But Brother prepared a gift for you. See if you like it."
Wu Yun took out a box and handed it to Qing Tan.
Qing Tan's eyes immediately lit up as she happily accepted it. "Brother Wu Yun, quickly let me see! What gift is it?"
Qing Tan opened the box to find a silver-white pill! "A fourth-grade Beauty Preserving Pill. After taking it, your skin will become fairer and more vibrant, while your body's aging will be slowed. It is a miraculous Spirit Pill for girls to preserve their beauty."
Wu Yun introduced it. He had gotten it for free from Yan Xuan. As a Rune Master, Yan Xuan had many treasures; Elixir Pills and Talisman Treasures were nothing unusual to him.
"A Beauty Preserving Pill? But Brother Wu Yun, I'm still growing. Isn't this too early?"
Her little-girl form is already adorable. There's no need to grow any more... Wu Yun secretly thought. He simply wanted Qing Tan to preserve her looks early. "Growing is one thing, but this pill will not affect your development. It'll only make your skin more radiant. Our little sister Qing Tan has such a pretty little face, so she must take good care of it. In any case, Brother thinks that whatever other women have, little sister Qing Tan must have too."
"Hehe, then I'll listen to Brother Wu Yun."
Qing Tan smiled happily. She loved hearing that line from her brother... whatever other women had, she would have too.
It made her feel endlessly cherished.
"Then, Brother Lin Dong, did you prepare a gift for me?"
Qing Tan looked expectantly at Lin Dong.
Lin Dong froze. Why did he need to prepare a gift?
Wu Yun shook his head slightly... Foolish little sister, did Brother Lin Dong look like the kind of person who prepared gifts? Besides, he had been locked in a little dark room these past few days. How could he have had any chance to go shopping?
Wu Yun said, "Qing Tan, we just took down the Blood Wolf Gang. Brother Lin Dong has been busy sorting through the Blood Wolf Gang's spoils these days, and he has not been able to spare any time. Don't blame him. If Brother Lin Dong hadn't helped share my burden, I wouldn't have had time to buy you this Beauty Preserving Pill either. So, let this gift count as one from both your brothers, all right? Next time, next time we'll make it up to you—with two gifts!"
Lin Dong looked at his big brother gratefully, thinking, Big Brother is still more thoughtful.
Wu Yun nodded at him and transmitted his voice.
"Second Brother, little sisters are meant to be cherished. You have no idea how much I envy you for having a little sister like Qing Tan."
Lin Dong was taken aback. Only then did he remember that his big brother was an orphan.
No wonder Big Brother treats Qing Tan so well. He sees her as a little sister too. I was being narrow-minded—I even thought Big Brother liked Qing Tan... Lin Dong reproached himself inwardly. He felt that he had judged his big brother's noble heart with his own petty mind! "All right. Actually, Qing Tan was already very happy just to see that you were both safe. I heard Grandfather say that you fought the Blood Wolf Gang's leader and the Ghost Blade Sect's leader. I was worried sick!" Qing Tan said softly.
She truly had been worried about them, which was why she had hurriedly searched everywhere for them. She wanted to see them as soon as possible.
At the same time, she hated her own uselessness. She was too weak and could not help either of her brothers! Suddenly, wisps of icy-white air emerged from Qing Tan's body.
The temperature around them instantly dropped! "Ah..."
Qing Tan clutched her chest with both hands and let out a pained cry.
Wu Yun's acting instincts kicked in. Pretending he knew nothing, he looked shocked and worried. "What's going on? What happened to little sister Qing Tan?"
Then he hurriedly grabbed Qing Tan's slender arm in concern.
Lin Dong's expression changed as he said helplessly, "Her cold energy is acting up again!"
It's here. There'll be another chapter tonight. This is what normal short means, okay? Yesterday's chapter was very long! (Haughty face) Those who said yesterday's chapter was short, vote obediently!
