Chapter 2202: Chapter 2199: Aura

"From the Mist Forest, to the Dry Bones Wasteland, to the Blood Sea Beach, and finally to the boundless Blood Sea, the creatures there are suppressed one layer over another, so much so that when the Blood Sea Giant Shark slaughters and devours exotic beasts, their clans dare not resist."

"What is this? This is the suppression of the superior. The Emperor Heart Technique is equivalent to the superior among cultivation techniques. Of course, this is speaking in terms of the current Ancient Martial World. Perhaps in some places, there is an even higher cultivation technique." Lin Tian quickly said.

"This situation is similar to that of an Emperor. An Emperor is a superior, inherently carrying suppression towards inferiors. Although I still don’t quite understand the essence of it, the uniqueness of the Emperor Heart Technique should not be far from this characteristic." Lin Tian analyzed layer by layer.

Miss seemed to grasp something, but was more confused. After thinking for a while, she softly said, "In Qingshuang Pavilion, I watched your duel with Ji Zimo. Ji Zimo used the Holy Heaven Seal."

"Under the activation of the Emperor Heart Technique, the Holy Heaven Seal’s momentum was grand, its artistic conception unparalleled, like an emperor raising the Seal, acting on behalf of the heavens, with a rolling grand force, carrying the might of an emperor, where all things submit beneath its authority."

"At that time, even if I intervened, even using Purple Lightning Frost, I would not be an opponent, but you used Meteor Burst to create a revolutionary artistic conception that breaks everything, sweeping across the Liu He, establishing a new realm, commanded by heaven, with longevity and prosperity, it reminded me of the Great Qin Empire of Emperor Shi."

Miss spoke word by word, savoring that kind of artistic conception. These words seemed to have been lingering in her mind for a long time.

Watching Miss’s serious demeanor was quite charming; even in dim light, her brilliance couldn’t be hidden. Lin Tian focused intently.

Miss suddenly raised her head, and upon seeing Lin Tian’s attentive gaze, her face couldn’t help but feel a little hot. She pretended a calm demeanor and said, "Why are you looking at me like this? Speak if you have something to say."

"Of course, I have something to say. Didn’t you just mention being commanded by heaven, with longevity and prosperity? Now, I will bring you the genuine will of heaven! Pay attention and feel it." Lin Tian smiled mysteriously and then raised his palm.

The will of heaven? Miss was stunned, not understanding, but then she sensed a strange aura. Lin Tian grasped at the void, and a Jade Seal appeared in his hand.

She looked up and saw that the bottom of the Jade Seal was engraved with eight seal characters: Commanded by Heaven, Longevity and Prosperity!

"The Imperial Jade Seal!" For some reason, upon seeing the Jade Seal, her first reaction was a feeling of authenticity, believing it to be the long-lost Imperial Jade Seal.

As the words fell, Lin Tian was already holding the Jade Seal, as if holding the power of the world over her.

Rumble!

The whole space shook, as if the heavens were pressing down, carrying an overwhelming momentum. Facing such momentum, Miss momentarily couldn’t summon the will to resist, and could only be crushed to powder by the grand force.

Zheng! A clear, resonant sword hum echoed.

The Hua Ying Sword rang of its own accord without wind, and its sound swirled and reverberated, jolting Miss awake. She was about to draw her sword to resist, but before the Hua Ying Sword left its scabbard, she found the Jade Seal already hovering above her head.

She met Lin Tian’s gaze, and they remained silent for a long time. Lin Tian did not disturb her, letting her feel it by herself and comprehend on her own.

"Young people, can you be more mindful, don’t you know us old folks are light sleepers..." The voice of Ling Xuesong broke the atmosphere within the room.

Lin Tian chuckled bitterly and retracted the Jade Seal, but Miss’s face was a little flushed, as if a young couple secretly meeting and then caught by their elders.

"Old Man Ling is always like this, just ignore him." Lin Tian said with a smile.

Miss lightly nodded, but her expression was still a bit unnatural: "This... Your Imperial Jade Seal is somewhat peculiar."

She didn’t ask how Lin Tian obtained it; a wise woman knows what should be asked and what should not.

"What if I say that the Xuanwu Meditation Technique was originally sealed within the Jade Seal, would you believe me?" Lin Tian asked in return.

"I believe it." Miss said very surely: "Even the Netherworld exists, so what is impossible?"

"You’re right, the Great Wizard had originally instructed me not to reveal the Imperial Jade Seal lightly, but I thought, since you already know about the Netherworld, knowing about this is no big deal." Lin Tian said, trusting Miss. Other than being a zombie, she almost knew everything about him.

"You want me to cultivate Xuanwu Meditation too?" Miss was momentarily surprised but then shook her head: "It’s probably too late. Although I’ve never cultivated Xuanwu Meditation, since it can be sealed in the Jade Seal, it must be extraordinary. Such a high-level cultivation technique isn’t easy to master."

Miss was correct; high-level cultivation techniques aren’t easy to master. Lin Tian had personally experienced this; despite having the Xuanwu Meditation for many days and practicing it several times, he hadn’t fully grasped it yet.

But Lin Tian still shook his head, denying her guess: "Not to cultivate Xuanwu Meditation, but to let you absorb the aura of the Imperial Jade Seal."

"Absorb aura?" Miss furrowed her beautiful brows, somewhat puzzled.

Lin Tian nodded: "The Imperial Jade Seal has experienced that glorious era and is very special. Moreover, the Jade Seal was refined by the Great Wizard and contains peculiar energy."

"In ancient times, this kind of national treasure was symbolic of the emperor’s authority, like the now-vanished Nine Tripods. Comparable to the Nine Tripods can only be the Imperial Jade Seal. So, as long as you absorb a little of the aura, you can find a way to break the Emperor Heart Technique."

"Auras are mystical and elusive; they can’t be seen or touched but can be felt. For example, the Ji Family’s Ancient Martial Technique, the Holy Heaven Seal, when activated, carries such an artistic conception, which is this aura." Lin Tian explained.

After saying this, Lin Tian extended the Imperial Jade Seal to Miss, who hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and took the Jade Seal with both hands.

"Alright, tonight you will cultivate here." Lin Tian declared solemnly.

"Here?" Miss looked around, somewhat hesitant.

Lin Tian knew what she was thinking; a lone man and woman, alone in a room at midnight, already a cause for misunderstanding, let alone staying the night.

He couldn’t help laughing and said: "Why should Miss care about others’ opinions? This isn’t like you."

Miss rolled her eyes at him, displeased: "Who said I care about others’ opinions? I’m wary of you, you lecher!"

This kind of title, Lin Tian was already immune to, nonchalantly said: "Yes, I’m a lecher, but I’m not a playboy. I still have that bit of self-control. Come, meditate on the bed, the floor is cold."

Miss directly ignored Lin Tian’s invitation, took out a handkerchief from her bosom, spread it on the floor, sat cross-legged, and held the Imperial Jade Seal with both hands. After a moment, a blue glow appeared on her hands, showing that she was circulating her True Qi.

The meditative and tranquil demeanor of Miss had a unique charm, with moonlight casting a sacred glow on her fair skin, like a celestial being, yet her figure was enticing and alluring, blending allure and sacred nobility at this moment, endlessly charismatic.

Lin Tian swallowed hard, but had to refocus his mind, because the Divine Sense of an Ancient Martial Artist in cultivation is very sensitive. If he harbored improper thoughts and was sensed, breaking her mental state, she could potentially run into an inner demon.
