Chapter 460: Tiance Mirror
Ling Feng took a deep breath and asked slowly, “Tuoba Cheng, has your Tiance clan ever had a magical treasured book that was later lost?”
“A treasured book?” Tuoba Cheng looked puzzled. “Master, what do you mean?”
“I mean a weapon or magical treasure belonging to the Great Emperor Tiance.”
“Oh!” Tuoba Cheng’s eyes lit up with realization. “Now that you mention it, I do recall a valuable item. It was called the Tiance Mirror!"
“The Tiance Mirror?” Ling Feng’s eyes twitched. He retrieved an old, worn book from his spirit ring and placed it on the table. “Is this the one?”
“This?”
Tuoba Cheng glanced at the shabby book and scoffed. “Master, are you mistaken? This doesn’t look like a treasure at all. It’s just a tattered book!”
Ling Feng touched his nose and said, “Just open it and see.”
Tuoba Cheng glanced at Ling Feng and picked up the old book. The moment he grasped it, his hand sank, nearly causing him to drop it.
“This...” Tuoba Cheng’s eyes twitched furiously. “How could this be? It must weigh at least a thousand catty!”
Ling Feng’s eyes flashed with a glimmer of insight. He realized that this mysterious old book seemed to change weight according to the cultivator's power.
“Source...” Tuoba Cheng looked at the cover, suddenly surprised. “I’ve seen this kind of font before.”
“Where?”
“Wangduan Mountain.”
Ling Feng rolled his eyes, thinking that he had asked a redundant question. Where else would it be other than Wangduan Mountain?
Taking a deep breath, Tuoba Cheng began to try and open the mysterious old book. However, even with his strength, he could not move it an inch despite putting in tremendous effort.
“What is this shit book!” Tuoba Cheng angrily threw the book on the table. “I refuse to believe this!”
He formed a hand seal, seemingly invoking some mysterious force which manifested as a yin-yang fish pattern swirling above the book.
“Is this the so-called Tianheng Profound Art that Tuoba Cheng mentioned?”
Ling Feng’s eyes twitched, and the Lin sisters widened their eyes. Lin Moyao, who had heard of the mysteries of Wangduan Mountain but had never seen someone from Wangduan Mountain perform their arts before, was especially surprised.
Little Lin Ling, with a face full of curiosity, exclaimed, “Wow, that’s amazing!”
After a while, Tuoba Cheng’s forehead was drenched with sweat, looking as if he had waded through a river. His face was pale, and he struggled to remain standing.
Thud! Thud Thud!
Tuoba Cheng staggered back three steps before finally stabilizing himself.
He swallowed hard and nodded towards Ling Feng, saying slowly, “I’m certain that this book is definitely related to our Tiance clan!”
“And so?”
“That’s all. This book is undoubtedly an extraordinary treasure. I couldn’t comprehend any of its mysteries and could only see chaos. However, I can still sense the power of Tiance from it, indicating that it was indeed once a treasure of our Great Emperor Tiance.”
“After all that, that’s all you found!?”
Ling Feng rolled his eyes, flipped the seemingly Tiance Mirror over, and placed it in front of Tuoba Cheng. “Take a look!”
“Huh?” Tuoba Cheng’s eyes twitched. “T-Tiance!”
Tuoba Cheng stood there in a daze, his spiritual consciousness seemingly drawn into the book. His eyes sparkled with clarity as if he had seen something.
Ling Feng had felt this sensation before at the General’s Mansion. The Book of Tiance contained something indescribable. Just a few glances drained his soul, his physical strength, and his spiritual consciousness, and even depleted his true qi.
“This is definitely the Tiance Mirror!”
Finally, Tuoba Cheng awoke with a weak expression. He seemed to have gained something, and his aura suddenly rose.
This wasn’t an increase in cultivation strength but a unique feeling of becoming more in harmony with nature.
The Tiance clan was indeed a mystical group!
“My Tianheng Profound Art has broken through to the sixth level!” Tuoba Cheng said with immense joy.
“Congratulations,” Ling Feng said blandly, his lips curling downward slightly.
“Master, you’re truly my lucky star. I’ll follow you forever!” Tuoba Cheng laughed.
Ling Feng rolled his eyes and changed the topic. “So, according to you, this book is the Tiance Mirror of your clan?”
“Yes.” Tuoba Cheng nodded. “It is indeed the Tiance Mirror. Unfortunately, to control it, one must learn our clan’s supreme sacred scripture, the Thirteen Divine Thoughts. Sadly, all its secrets are buried in the imperial tomb. I didn’t expect to find such a fateful person like you and even recover the Tiance Mirror! The grand elder will surely reward me heavily!”
“You’re dreaming.” Ling Feng put the Tiance Mirror away and said sternly, “I have no intention of handing this treasure back to your clan.”
“No one said you had to.” Tuoba Cheng rolled his eyes. “Our Tiance clan values the natural order. Since this Tiance Mirror has fallen into your hands, it means you’re destined for it.”
Tuoba Cheng gave Ling Feng a rather ambiguous look, hiding one fact.
The fact was that anyone who obtained the Tiance Mirror was the new sacred master of the Tiance clan.
The position of the Tiance Sacred Master had been vacant for over a thousand years, and now, a new one had finally appeared.
“Master, you must keep this book safe. My future depends on you!”
Tuoba Cheng grinned mischievously. If Ling Feng became the Tiance Sacred Master, he would be the disciple of the sacred master!
What a thrill!
Ling Feng was taken aback by Tuoba Cheng’s attitude. He didn’t intend to greedily keep the Tiance Mirror; he just wanted to trade it for some treasures from the Tiance clan. But from Tuoba Cheng’s behavior, it seemed he had no intention of taking back the Tiance Mirror.
How strange!
Ling Feng shook his head and asked, “Do you know why the Tiance Mirror went missing from the hands of Great Emperor Tiance?”
“How could I know that?” Tuoba Cheng shook his head. “I suppose the grand elder might know. Master, if you want to find out, you should come with me to Wangduan Mountain.”
“I will go to Wangduan Mountain, but not now.” Ling Feng put the Tiance Mirror into his spirit ring and said, “You should serve the Lin family well. I will inform you when it’s time to go to Wangduan Mountain.”
“As you wish, Master!” Tuoba Cheng said respectfully. “I will be here, awaiting your good news...”
