Chapter 508: Chapter 505: Sharp-Tongued Xiao Tian

According to ancient records, the level of magical treasures in the world is akin to the weapons of masters. The power varies based on the material.

For example, the blades of those two masters of the Mizuno Clan are much inferior to the blades of Mingzhi Ginseng, and naturally, their power cannot be compared.

Among many magical treasures, there exists one kind that does not belong to any grade, known as Spirit Treasures.

Spirit Treasures, as the name implies, are treasures whose grade has transcended ordinary worldly grades, turning into top-tier spiritual magical treasures.

When Master Guanghuai proposed this theory, many of his peers of the same level did not truly believe it in their hearts but had to comfort him verbally, saying his theory was quite likely.

Now it seems, Master Guanghuai’s theory might be true eight or nine times out of ten!

Otherwise, why is it that the Life Seal, which generations of Dao Yi sect members could not use effectively, produces miraculous effects when it reaches Xiao Tian?!

Yet, there are many doubts, such as why Lin Bingxuan, who had completely recovered under the healing of the Life Seal, suddenly turned her black hair into white hair?

And what exactly does the Life Seal tattoo on Lin Bingxuan’s arm mean?

All these puzzles leave Master Guangmie utterly bewildered!

Previously, Dao Yi sect’s biggest breakthrough regarding the Life Seal actually happened in the hands of Saintly Judge Doist.

There, the unique Power of Death of Saintly Judge Doist produced a repelling effect from the Life Seal. In this way, Xiao Tian’s removal of the Power of Death for Lin Bingxuan by seizing the Life Seal also seemed reasonable.

But most importantly, these are all assumptions. According to Master Guanghuai, the current ancient records available only have limited information on treasures that produce artifact spirits.

It is only known that once an artifact spirit recognizes its master, unless the master is killed, it cannot be taken by another.

And even if the treasure’s master is killed, it doesn’t mean the one who seizes it will gain the artifact spirit’s recognition.

Without gaining recognition from the artifact spirit, even a top-tier magical treasure in hand would be useless, even inferior to the lowest-grade magical treasures.

Because, whether it’s the Heaven-Swaying Sword or the Dragon-slaying Blade in hand, if you can’t wield them, it’s pointless!

Master Guangmie, unaware of everything, could not assess whether the Life Seal had already recognized its master, nor did he know if the Life Seal truly possessed an artifact spirit. The current situation indeed left him in a dilemma.

His purpose differed from other forces. Others wished to kill Xiao Tian, while his sole aim was to retrieve the sect’s treasure, the Life Seal, which would fulfill his mission completely.

As for whether Xiao Tian lived or died, it mattered not to him.

Thinking of Xiao Tian, Master Guangmie felt a chill in his heart. He wondered whether the boy had been recognized as the master by the Life Seal, or perhaps it was the woman on the bed?

He wondered where the boy was now. Regardless, it was crucial to find the Life Seal quickly.

Since he decided to find the Life Seal urgently, he needed to determine its general location and where Xiao Tian might have hidden it.

If it wasn’t here, there was only one possibility left—the Life Seal was being carried personally by Xiao Tian.

Watching the lifelike Life Seal tattoo on Lin Bingxuan’s wrist, Master Guangmie couldn’t help but frown, then cautiously extended his hand forward to see whether it was indeed a tattoo or something else.

Just as Master Guangmie’s hand was about to touch the Life Seal tattoo on Lin Bingxuan’s arm, an extremely dangerous feeling enveloped him, followed by a swift gust of wind from beside.

Master Guangmie instinctively sensed trouble and dodged backward to avoid the punch that came like a storm, though the fist wind did tear a strand of his beard, which slowly floated out through the window.

Xiao Tian’s figure seemed to appear out of thin air, standing in the spot where Master Guangmie had been, firmly protecting Lin Bingxuan on the sickbed behind him, like a towering mountain that no one could move an inch!

Master Guangmie observed Xiao Tian as if facing a formidable enemy, while the latter secretly assessed him.

Upon seeing Master Guangmien’s long hair and attire similar to Saintly Virtue Daoist and others, Xiao Tian immediately knew this person was surely from the Dao Yi sect.

Xiao Tian coldly asked, ”Did Saintly Virtue send you?”

Master Guangmie disdainfully snorted through his nostrils, as if to say—how dare he command me?!

Yet he replied, ”Since you’re aware, why ask more? Cut the nonsense, return our sect’s treasure, and the past can be forgotten.”

”Heh!” Xiao Tian couldn’t help but laugh out loud, ”A treasure stolen from elsewhere is treated as your sect’s treasure?! Shamelessness must have its limits!”

Before Master Guangmie could speak, Xiao Tian added, ”Also, you say the previous matters can be dismissed? Don’t you find that ridiculous?!”

”You hurt my woman and then relied on the Five Elements Array and your Mountain Protection Array to wound me, and you think it ends just because you say it does?!”

”What do you count as, to talk about dismissing the past with me?!”

Master Guangmie panted heavily, his remaining strand of beard fluttering incessantly.

”You destroyed my sect’s Mountain Protection Array and robbed our sect’s treasure, attack again. Who’s the more shameless one?!”

Xiao Tian laughed again, ”Still, those treasures you grabbed from elsewhere not only without any feeling of disgrace but instead worshiped as your sect’s treasure, and still dare ask others about being shameless?!”

”In that case, I can plainly tell you today, the Life Seal is an heirloom of my family, having nothing at all to do with Dao Yi sect!”

”You...” Master Guangmie was furious, momentarily unable to retort, saying, ”You’re obviously lying! Clearly, you stole the sect’s treasure, how could it be your family’s heirloom?!”

”Oh?” It seemed Xiao Tian had been waiting for those words, immediately replied in kind, ”You allow yourselves to arrogantly steal others’ treasures claiming as your sect treasure, but I can’t seize your sect’s treasure and declare it my heirloom?!”

”Your logic is deeply flawed! Not allowing folks to light lamps while bureaucrats burn fires is not how things should work!”

Master Guangmie’s chest heaved continuously in anger, saying, ”Fine, are you finally admitting seizing our sect’s treasure?!”

”Hmm?!” Xiao Tian looked at Master Guangmie with a foolish gaze, ”I thought it was your logic that was flawed, but now I see it’s your intelligence that’s questionable.” Xiao Tian remarked.

”Obviously, you admitted to the fact of seizing others’ treasures and then claimed as your what-so- called sect treasure, right?!”

Master Guangmie only felt hot blood rushing to his head, fearing he might suffer a stroke if it continued.

Realizing he couldn’t gain an advantage in arguments, he gave an ultimatum, ”Enough chatter, I only ask, hand it over or not?”
