Chapter 0427: Beast Radiance Moon Runes

The elderly woman looked at the sun in the sky and said, "I don't know if the Yang Spirit is still here, but it did fall here!"

Qin Yun also gazed at the sky, feeling a surge of excitement. If the Yang Spirit was truly here, obtaining it would surely grant tremendous power.

"Grandma, why are there ten suns here?"

The elderly woman descended in front of a mountain and walked towards a cave, saying, "One sun is hidden, invisible in the Nine Desolations! That sun is the true original sun!"

Qin Yun was completely baffled by these matters and didn't ask further.

"Grandma, did those people leave after not finding the Yang Spirit?" He was extremely curious about the Yang Spirit.

The elderly woman nodded: "They searched here for over a decade, finally concluding that the Yang Spirit wasn't here before they left! But I believe the Yang Spirit is still here!"

Qin Yun followed the elderly woman into the cave.

Inside, there was a large teleportation array, mostly constructed with Moon Runes.

The teleportation array was still intact, only the mystic runes were damaged.

"This is the teleportation array to Wuhuang! After you return, you must give the Black Moon Martial Spirit to the Young Palace Master!" The elderly woman said, showing her great trust in Qin Yun.

"I need to repair the teleportation array to return!" Qin Yun said: "This might take some time!"

He couldn't repair the damaged Moon Runes, but Mo Mo could.

The elderly woman said, "You're only at the Martial Dao realm, can you repair such a powerful teleportation array?"

"I don't know, I'll try!" Qin Yun released Mo Mo.

Mo Mo flew above the teleportation array, hovering for a while, then said, "I can repair the mystic runes inside, but it will take a long time and consume many beast crystal eggs!"

"How long will it take approximately?" Qin Yun asked.

"Half a year!" Mo Mo thought for a moment: "It might consume over a hundred beast crystal eggs! And even then, it will only be a temporary fix, usable just once!"

This was a very complex teleportation array, and it was already impressive that Mo Mo could repair it.

The elderly woman looked at Mo Mo, frowning, "This little sprite, isn't she the Sprite High Priestess?"

"Yes, a very cute little sprite!" Qin Yun smiled, then asked, "Grandma, does the Moon Palace have many medicinal herbs and such?"

"Of course! This was a growing area for immortal herbs, but now it's all destroyed!" The elderly woman sighed with heartache.

Qin Yun was inwardly astonished; this place actually had legendary immortal herbs!

He suddenly felt that this moon must have been a very powerful place, once home to some immortal king, and even the Mighty Demoness often visited here.

But now it's all ruined!

"What medicinal herbs do you need?" The elderly woman asked.

"I want the Linglong Mystic Fruit!" Qin Yun said somewhat dejectedly: "A friend of mine is poisoned and needs the Linglong Mystic Fruit to cure the poison."

The elderly woman said, "The Linglong Mystic Fruit is a very precious fruit for mortals, but for us, it's just an everyday fruit!"

Qin Yun's lips twitched; that was an incredibly rare mystical medicine, yet they treated it as a common fruit to eat!

"Is there any left here?" he quickly asked.

If Feng Honglan's poison isn’t cured, her looks won’t return, and it could eventually kill her.

The old lady smiled, "No! But you don’t always need mystical herbs to cure poison. There’s a Jade Rabbit here. You just need to find that little creature and bring it back!"

"Jade Rabbit?" Qin Yun asked with some confusion, "Does it really work?"

"The Jade Rabbit can suck up any kind of poison! You should know, the Jade Rabbit was raised with many detoxifying mystical fruits and herbs, and it’s a little immortal mystical beast!" the old lady explained.

"Where’s the Jade Rabbit? I’ll go look for it right away!" Qin Yun said.

"I don’t know! There was a huge battle here years back, and I’m the only one who made it out alive!" the old lady sighed deeply, "The others were either killed or taken, but the Jade Rabbit’s probably still alive, hibernating deep underground!"

Qin Yun said somewhat disheartened, "How do I find the Jade Rabbit?"

The old lady shook her head, "Just look around the Guanghan Palace!"

The Guanghan Palace is huge, and the Jade Rabbit is hiding deep underground, so finding it won’t be easy.

"Grandma, how big is the Jade Rabbit, anyway? What are its characteristics?" Qin Yun asked.

"How big can it be? Just a little thing, like a regular rabbit, but it glows with a faint white light!" the old lady said, "It was the Young Palace Master’s favorite pet when she was a kid!"

Qin Yun had thought the Jade Rabbit was quite large, being a mystical beast after all.

"I’ve got an idea!" he quickly pulled out a booklet with StarMoon Sigils.

He remembered a Moon Rune that could lure beasts out.

"Beast Lure Moon Rune!"

Qin Yun quickly found that Moon Rune. Even though it looked tricky, he could figure it out with his smarts.

He grabbed his tools for making spirit talismans right away, preparing to create a Beast Lure Talisman.

"Can I really make a spirit talisman with the Beast Lure Moon Rune?" Qin Yun placed the beast skin into the Heavenly Lion Subduing Dragon Cauldron and released flames to burn it.

The Beast Lure Talisman creates a special energy called Beast Lure Moon Dew, which all kinds of beasts love to absorb.

The old lady looked at Qin Yun’s items and said, "You claim you don’t remember your past life, but you were a master of the Way of Odd Patterns back then!"

"Really?" Qin Yun was very surprised.

The old lady said, "You were a celestial king in your past life, but very mysterious! I don’t even know your name from your past life, only that your Way of Odd Patterns was extraordinary!"

"It seems that after the Young Palace Master died, you also went to seek revenge on those guys. But you didn’t succeed, so you died!"

Qin Yun frowned, "Does becoming a celestial king mean living for a long time?"

"Of course! What a pity, you actually died!" the old lady said with great heartache.

"I’m still alive now!" Qin Yun felt strange because the old lady looked at him as if he were a dead person.

"The Young Palace Master also lived for a long time, but she still died!" the old lady said, tears streaming down her face.

Qin Yun quickly comforted her, "Grandma, don’t cry! The Young Palace Master has been reincarnated, hasn’t she? She’s still alive! And she’s also a friend of mine!"

The old lady nodded upon hearing this, "She will surely rebuild the Guanghan Palace in the future, and I will wait here for her return!"

Qin Yun asked, "Grandma, aren’t you coming with me to Wuhuang?"

The old lady shook her head, "My powers are too great; I’m barred from entering Wuhuang! It’s a realm for mortals; we can’t simply enter!"

"Grandma, what else do you know about my past life?" Qin Yun wasn’t sure if he even had a past life.

The old lady paused to think before saying, "The Young Palace Master seldom spoke of you! She only mentioned that you liked to explore ancient gardens!"

"This place was once an ancient garden! He stumbled upon it by chance and met the Young Palace Master!"

"There are said to be nine ancient gardens, scattered across the nine great wildernesses!"

Qin Yun, who was pounding the animal hide, suddenly stopped, somewhat surprised, "There are nine ancient gardens in total?"

The old lady said, "Yes! The invaders who destroyed this place broke in and utterly devastated the once-beautiful ancient gardens! I overheard them say that the Yang Spirits of the Nine Suns would descend into the nine ancient gardens!"

"Tens of thousands of years ago, Yang Spirits supposedly fell into Wuhuang, Beast Wilderness, Demon Wilderness, Spirit Wilderness, and Demon Wilderness, but I don’t know if anyone has obtained them!"

Qin Yun suddenly thought of the ancient garden on the Demon Path—there might be a Yang Spirit there too!

"I wonder how Xiao Lu and the others are faring! That ancient garden opens only once every millennium, and those who enter are forbidden to speak of its secrets. Could it be related to the Yang Spirit?"

He couldn’t help but let his mind drift.

The old lady suddenly touched Qin Yun’s head and said, "Pay attention, or you’ll hit your hand!"

Qin Yun came back to his senses and seriously pounded the animal hide.

Not long after, he pounded the hide into the size of talisman paper, then took out the Spirit Rhino Brush.

Instead of carving directly onto the talisman paper, he first practiced on a stack of paper.

To his astonishment, as he carved the Moon Runes, the spirit of the strange patterns within the Spirit Rhino Brush suddenly awakened, releasing an unusual energy that fused with his soul, enabling him to carve the Moon Runes effortlessly.

"I never expected the spirit of the Beast King’s strange patterns to work so well with these Moon Runes—this is fantastic!"

Qin Yun was ecstatic in his heart, and he planned to try carving more beast-related strange patterns in the future.

He inwardly chastised himself for not harnessing the divine spirit of strange patterns more effectively, vowing to focus more on this in the future.

To guarantee success, Qin Yun practiced several more times, still managing to carve them flawlessly.

"If I gather more spirits of strange patterns, wouldn’t I be able to carve them more swiftly in the future?"

He was just thinking, because obtaining the spirit of strange patterns is not easy.

Next, he started carving the Moon Runes on the animal hide talisman paper.

"Your carving tool appears to contain the spirit of strange patterns!" the old lady suddenly said.

"Grandma, you’re familiar with this too!" Qin Yun was slightly surprised and laughed, "Then do you know the greatest use of the spirit of strange patterns?"

"Its greatest use is carving the corresponding strange patterns onto martial souls or bodies!" the old lady laughed.

Qin Yun was inwardly stunned; his spirit of strange patterns was the Beast King, and he had previously carved the Sky Lion totem pattern onto a puppet with ease!

In other words, he could effortlessly carve beast totems onto others’ martial souls or bodies.

He also intended to attempt it again when the opportunity arose.

Qin Yun inscribed a set of Moon Runes on both sides of the talisman paper, unsure of its level.

"Let’s give it a try!"

Once the Beast Talisman was activated, it hovered and drew in a faint silver light from the ground, condensing into droplets of Beast Moon Dew.

Qin Yun swiftly used a small plate to collect it.
