Three quarters of an hour later, Zhou Liangchen clicked his tongue and withdrew to Little Black Tortoise's side with a trace of reluctance.
He was also very interested in Divine Ao Rogue Person's inheritance and understood the spell structure on the stone stele, but he had no confidence he could master the spell within two months.
The stone stele laid out a requirement: they had only forty-five days.
Anyone who failed to master the spell within forty-five days would be sent straight out of the immortal palace.
So Zhou Liangchen decisively gave up. He might as well follow Chu Xisheng and the others and pick up some medicinal pills and magic artifacts.
Judging by the Ninth-Rank Secret Realm in Linhai, Divine Ao Rogue Person was quite generous and would never let them leave empty-handed.
Of course, the Linhai secret realm had also seen heavy casualties, but those were special circumstances, brought about by the schemes of Situ Li, the former master of the Eastern Province Martial Discourse Tower two terms ago.
Chu Xisheng remained standing before the stone stele.
He concentrated on the words and illustrations on it, his brows knotted.
Jian Zangfeng, however, had given up long ago. He sat down cross-legged not far from Chu Xisheng and smiled. "What's wrong? With your comprehension, junior brother, surely you can understand it?"
"How could I not understand it? The question is whether I should learn it."
Chu Xisheng gave a wry smile.
His Supreme Communication with the Divine had reached the twelfth rank, after all, and those forehead-slapping moments were becoming more frequent.
After mastering Heaven-Peering, he also had one chance each day to trigger a forehead-slapping moment himself.
And ever since Demon God Zangtian had bestowed divine grace, Chu Xisheng felt his comprehension had improved considerably as well.
