In his past life, Ye Yun had read Martial Universe, so he naturally understood what the Devouring Ancestral Talisman was.

The Devouring Ancestral Talisman was one of the eight great Ancestral Talismans in the world of Martial Universe.

In the Martial Universe world, the status of these eight Ancestral Talismans was almost identical to that of the Heavenly Flames in the Battle Through the Heavens world.

Lin Dong relied on collecting the Ancestral Talismans to become the Martial Ancestor.

Xiao Yan relied on devouring Heavenly Flames to become the Flame Emperor.

Since both came from the same author, the settings for these "golden fingers" were remarkably similar.

However, although their status was equal, in Ye Yun's view, the utility of the eight Ancestral Talismans far surpassed that of the Heavenly Flames.

After all, there were only eight Ancestral Talismans, whereas there were twenty-four types of Heavenly Flames.

Ye Yun's gaze lingered on the black rune upon the counter, various marvelous uses of the Devouring Ancestral Talisman flashing through his mind.

The Devouring Ancestral Talisman obtained from the Heavens Jar was naturally somewhat different from the one in the Martial Universe world; they could not be considered entirely identical.

The Devouring Ancestral Talisman in the original work possessed a talisman spirit and was incomparably powerful.

The one from the Heavens Jar had clearly been processed by the system; aside from retaining the majority of the talisman's capabilities, everything else had been erased.

One only needed to fuse it with their soul to unleash the power of the Devouring Ancestral Talisman.

It could be said to be extremely convenient!

In terms of raw power, the Devouring Ancestral Talisman might not be the strongest of the eight, but its abilities were definitely the most mysterious.

Lin Dong was able to integrate all the Ancestral Talismans into his body precisely by relying on the devouring power of the Devouring Ancestral Talisman to contain the others.

Furthermore, the Devouring Ancestral Talisman could develop many ultimate techniques, such as the Devouring Fist and the Devouring Realm...

With the various capabilities of the Devouring Ancestral Talisman flashing through his mind, Ye Yun looked at the expectant Nalan Yanran, suppressed the envy and jealousy in his heart, and spoke indifferently: "This item is called the Devouring Ancestral Talisman. Its functions are difficult to explain in a few words; once you fuse it with your soul, you will naturally understand everything."

"Devouring Ancestral Talisman?"

"Fuse it with my soul?"

Upon hearing this, a look of confusion appeared in Nalan Yanran's beautiful eyes. Could this black rune really be fused into a soul?

Yun Yun, standing to the side, also couldn't help but cast her gaze toward the strange black rune on the counter. After studying it for a long time, she confirmed she had never seen such a thing before.

"But, Shopkeeper, how do I fuse it with my soul?" Nalan Yanran asked.

Ye Yun replied: "Simply hold it in your hand and silently recite 'use' in your heart."

"Oh."

Hearing this, Nalan Yanran nodded. She immediately picked up the black rune from the counter, and a faint, icy sensation surged into her heart. Nalan Yanran felt a shiver, remembered Ye Yun's words, and immediately recited in her heart: "Use."

The next moment, the black rune in Nalan Yanran's hand suddenly emitted a strange, dark glow, as if it were about to suck a person's soul right into it.

Yun Yun took one look and felt a sudden chill, a sense of palpitations, and quickly averted her gaze.

Ge Ye, standing behind them, was even worse off; his face turned deathly pale, his eyes filled with terror.

He had only glanced at it for a moment, yet he felt as if his soul were about to be snatched away, leaving him with lingering fear.

Just then, the black rune transformed into a streak of dark light, drilled directly into the center of Nalan Yanran's brow, and vanished.

"Ah..."

Caught off guard, Nalan Yanran let out a miserable cry before fainting on the spot.

"Yanran!"

Seeing this, Yun Yun caught Nalan Yanran in her arms just in time, calling out to her with a nervous expression.

Ye Yun said indifferently from the side: "No need to be nervous. Once she wakes up, she will have completely mastered the power of the Devouring Ancestral Talisman."

If the system hadn't simplified the Devouring Ancestral Talisman, there would be no way for someone with Nalan Yanran's meager strength to master it.

Hearing this, Yun Yun finally felt relieved, though her eyes still held a trace of worry.

Ye Yun glanced at her, then pointed a finger behind her. A bed appeared out of thin air, and he said to Yun Yun: "Help her rest for a while first."

"Many thanks."

Looking at the bed that had appeared from nothing, Yun Yun thanked Ye Yun and helped Nalan Yanran lie down, though she was inwardly shocked by Ye Yun's display of power.

Creating objects out of thin air?

What kind of technique was this?

Even a Dou Sheng expert wouldn't possess such an ability, would they?

For a moment, Yun Yun looked at Ye Yun, feeling that this person was becoming increasingly mysterious.

At this moment, a group of high-ranking members of the Misty Cloud Sect, led by Yun Leng, had also entered the shop.

"Sect Master, what happened to Yanran?"

Seeing Nalan Yanran in a coma, Yun Leng frowned and couldn't help but ask.

Yun Yun was lost in her own thoughts and had no heart to explain further; she shook her head and said indifferently: "It is nothing, she has only fallen into a temporary slumber."

Yun Leng nodded upon hearing this, then swept his gaze around the shop, observing it carefully.

Ge Ye, standing to the side, could hardly wait to see what treasures he might pull from the jar he had purchased.

Seeing Yun Leng and the others enter, he felt a sudden tension; fearing that delays might lead to complications, he slammed his palm directly onto the jar.

In an instant, radiant light spilled forth, drawing the gaze of everyone in the shop, including the newly arrived Yun Leng and his party, all of whom wore expressions of astonishment.

As the radiance faded, only a grey scroll remained upon the counter.

Ye Yun swept his gaze over it and immediately grasped all the information regarding the grey scroll.

Cloud-Parting Palm: An exquisite palm technique from the [Wind and Cloud World]. Its movements are erratic and elusive, possessing immense power comparable to a Profound-tier high-grade Dou Technique of this world.

To think it's something from the Wind and Cloud World again.

A trace of surprise flashed in Ye Yun's eyes before he calmly withdrew his gaze.

Although the Cloud-Parting Palm was quite powerful, it still fell short compared to peerless martial arts like Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin.

Still, it wasn't bad.

A Profound-tier high-grade Dou Technique was worth at least several hundred thousand gold coins.

Ge Ye had truly made a killing with this pull.

Ye Yun felt a bit puzzled.

How was it that everyone from the Misty Cloud Sect had such good luck?

The items they pulled were worth far more than one hundred thousand gold coins.

If the system operated like this, where was the profit?

Or perhaps, since this was his first day of business, the system was being intentionally generous to help build his reputation?

Ge Ye had already opened the scroll and was flipping through it carefully.

A moment later, he looked toward Ye Yun with anticipation and asked, "Boss, what level of Dou Technique would this Cloud-Parting Palm be considered?"

Having read through the technique once, he felt it was quite extraordinary and harbored a sliver of hope—what if this, too, was an Earth-tier Dou Technique?

If so, wouldn't he have struck it rich?

Ye Yun glanced at him and said indifferently, "Profound-tier high-grade."

Upon hearing this, Ge Ye froze, feeling a touch of disappointment, but then he cheered up at the thought of having acquired a Profound-tier high-grade Dou Technique for only one hundred thousand gold coins.

However, having witnessed Yun Yun's earlier success, he did not show his emotions too openly.

After all, for the same one hundred thousand gold coins, she had pulled a divine pill capable of increasing one's cultivation by thirty years, as well as an Earth-tier high-grade Dou Technique.

Compared to Yun Yun, his Profound-tier high-grade Dou Technique was practically nothing.

Yet, while Ge Ye thought this way, Yun Leng and the others behind him certainly did not.
