Chapter 115: Chapter 28 Dragon’s Blood_1
Xuan Yue, of course, knew the value of this Space Magic Note, especially given that it had come from the hands of Pu Lin, the Space Magic Tutor using the pseudonym Yuan Mu. Xuan Yue solemnly received the Magic Note with both hands, and said seriously, "Thank you, Prophet Pu Lin, I will surely diligently practice your Space Magic." Though she said this, Xuan Yue did not actually feel any urgency to practice. Up until now, she still held doubt towards the Savior that Pu Lin kept mentioning.
Seemingly seeing through Xuan Yue’s internal thoughts, Pu Lin smiled and said, "Child, one day, you will strive eagerly. Ah Dai, come here."
Ah Dai agreed, walking over to stand next to Xuan Yue. Pu Lin gave a slight smile, held Ah Dai’s hand and said, "Ah Dai, you are a kind and good-hearted child. The person you are now is not really you. Given your orientation, you should be an extremely intelligent individual. The reason you are like this now must surely be related to your childhood. If I am not guessing incorrectly, you must be an orphan."
Ah Dai blinked in surprise and said, "How did you know that?"
Pu Lin gave a mysterious smile and said, "Don’t forget, I am the Prophet of the Pu Yan tribe! Your childhood must have been filled with painful experiences. After you entered the Temple, I once examined your body. I discovered that there’s a shadow in your mind. Only by breaking through this shadow can you find your true self again. However, this will require you to strive by yourself. Despite losing your memory, you are still a kind and good-hearted child. It is this kind-hearted nature of yours that has brought you to where you are today. Your achievements in the future are immeasurable. Remember my words, regardless of whether you regain your memory or not, always preserve your kind-heartedness. Only then, will you receive the blessings of the Sky God."
Upon hearing Pu Lin’s words, Ah Dai stood there in a stupor, a flicker of understanding passing through his mind, yet unable to grasp it. Xuan Yue frowned and asked, "Prophet Pu Lin, are you saying Ah Dai has experienced memory loss before?"
Pu Lin gave a slight nod and said, "Ah Dai must have experienced a hugely traumatic event in his childhood that’s causing his amnesia. I believe he will regain those memories someday."
Ah Dai’s voice trembled with emotion as he asked, "Prophet Pu Lin, are you telling me that I could also have a family? That I... am not an orphan?"
Pu Lin shook his head and said, "My power has its limits, I do not know where you come from or what type of person you are. You will have to uncover all the answers yourself. Do you understand?"
Ah Dai looked blankly at Pu Lin, rendered speechless for a moment.
Pu Lin said, "Alright, Ah Dai, I also want to give you something. This item will be of some use to you in the future. It can not only help you suppress evil, but also protect you at crucial moments. Look," he said while pressing on the stone table in front of him. A flash of light momentarily appeared and a round stone pillar protruded from the center of the table. Pu Lin pronounced a quiet command, and swiftly drew a hexagram on the top of the stone pillar, mumbling a few spells. The burst of light abruptly expanded, making the protruding stone pillar become translucent. Suddenly, a necklace was conjured within the pillar. The necklace was silver in color, with a common-looking water-drop shaped blue pendant hanging from it. It looked very similar to Xuan Yue’s Phoenix’s Blood.
As this necklace appeared, the Phoenix’s Blood around Xuan Yue’s neck suddenly warmed up, and the necklace gave her an uncannily familiar feeling.
Pu Lin looked at the necklace in front of his eyes with a sense of bewilderment and sighed, "Remember the saying? Bound by the Blood of the Divine Dragon, this necklace is the matching Divine Dragon’s Blood for the Phoenix’s Blood. Our Pu Yan tribe has been preserving this for thousands of years. Xuan Yue, you should know the origin of these two necklaces, right?"
Xuan Yue looked at the Divine Dragon’s Blood with some excitement, nodded, and said, "The Divine Dragon’s Blood and Phoenix’s Blood were the accessories of the first Pope of the church, God Feather, and his wife. It’s said that they are Divine Artifacts crafted with the fresh blood of the King of all Dragons - the Divine Dragon, and the King of all Birds - the Phoenix, and possess tremendous power."
Pu Lin nodded and said, "Correct, you’re not wrong. This Divine Dragon’s Blood was once the property of God Feather. At that time, other races were unwilling to return our territory to the Pu Yan tribe, so as an apology, God Feather bestowed upon us his protective relic. It has since become the heirloom treasure of our tribe, which we’ve never used. The Phoenix’s Blood, meanwhile, has always been preserved by the church, and is the same one that Xuan Yue is currently wearing. The two items complement each other, having both grown and assisted each other. However, your abilities are still too weak right now and you are unable to harness the full power of these artifacts. Once you can surpass my power, then perhaps you can truly call upon the Divine Dragon and Phoenix for assistance. Within all the divine artifacts, the Divine Dragon’s Blood and Phoenix’s Blood can be considered intermediate artifacts."
Xuan Yue, taken aback, asked, "Artifacts also have different levels?"
Pu Lin nodded slightly and explained, "Artifacts are roughly divided into three levels, hasn’t your elder already explained this to you? Some of these lower level artifacts can be created with human power. According to what I know, there was once a great alchemist, who solely relying on his power and a variety of precious treasures created a lower level artifact. I don’t really understand how the intermediate and advanced level artifacts were created. What I do know, is that even the Sky God fears the power of the upper level artifact." Saying this, he consciously or unconsciously cast a glance at where the Sword of Hades was located on Ah Dai’s chest.
