Tiantuo looked down, his expression somewhat tense.
Although the Lingsa path was not particularly powerful, that figure was still a True Lord and had to be treated with caution. He was not someone they could easily deceive.
Xu Xuan, however, was trying to guide the clear qi deeper into Yelü Tan's mind. Sure enough, he found an exceedingly thin layer of iron-gray light protecting it. As the clear qi descended, that iron-gray radiance immediately dispersed.
The more recent the memories, the clearer they were, but tracing them back beyond a year became difficult.
He swept his gaze over them and saw that Yelü Tan had been ordered to refine a Shaman Treasure at Ironbane Mountain in Origin Capital Circuit. He had only come to divine the bloodline at Tuoba Cai's request.
As the clear qi descended, Yelü Tan's recent memories were swiftly extracted and condensed into a painted scroll. Following Tiantuo's instructions, Xu Xuan sent it beneath the Immortal Stele deep within the Grotto-Heaven to be suppressed.
This way, any attempt to pry into [Yelü Tan's memories] would point toward that Immortal Stele! Absolutely nothing could be divined from it.
