Chapter 48: Sin Blood Mark
As soon as he entered the Drum Tower, the internal space instantly underwent a massive change.
In that instant… a beam of light entered Ling Mo’s eyes, only feeling a stinging pain in his body, with countless images surging into his mind.
On those images, many people of all shapes and sizes floated.
From beneath the darkness, crossing through the void, was a young man carrying a tree, with a unique temperament, just like the Son of Upper Heavens.
All living beings worshiped him, calling him the Son of Heaven!
Besides that figure, Ling Mo also saw a very unique person. From his appearance and various features, he actually resembled Ling Mo somewhat.
“Isn’t this the bear child who often appears in my dreams?”
Although the other had grown up, Ling Mo still recognized that it was the bear child who often appeared in his dreams.
Casually drinking beast milk while passing through his dreams!
Ling Mo could recognize him because of a mark on his forehead, a mark that Ling Mo also had! It had always existed since the Dual Pupils awakened.
“Sin Blood Mark!”
The seven stone statues under the Three Thousand Provinces were particularly conspicuous, and the figure fighting alone outside the Imperial Pass inexplicably made Ling Mo’s heart ache!
“Holy crap, why does my head hurt so much…”
His head throbbed painfully, Ling Mo’s spirit completely collapsed, fainting several times.
Scenes flashed through his mind: Sin Blood Mark, Heaven Mending Pavilion, Illusory God Realm!
That final beam of light seemed to symbolize the end of an era.
Returning to consciousness, gazing toward the end of the void, Ling Mo saw in the endless darkness nine dragon skeletons pulling a coffin past him.
This scene, Ling Mo would never forget in his life! Because this was what he encountered on the Void Wall when he arrived in the Douluo World.
Nine Dragon Pulling Coffin! All living beings annihilated, all beings in suffering…
“This… exactly why?”
A heartfelt question, Ling Mo’s head throbbed painfully, unable to figure out what these things had to do with him or why they affected him so greatly.
In the intense pain, Ling Mo fainted and floated in the void!
If he had paid attention, he would have noticed that the man and dog who had long left actually appeared at the end of the void, diligently digging for something.
From their techniques and actions, they should be grave robbing! And robbing the tomb of someone remarkable.
These two had traversed the heavens, digging through all sorts of imperial tombs, who knows what they were really looking for.
In the illusory world, in a daze, a man, a rotting corpse, and a bronze coffin arrived, the desolate voice inspiring sorrow. Looking from afar, at the end of the void was endless darkness.
A stone tablet floated over from the vast void, with a sentence engraved on it.
“Who in the world deserves white clothes?”
In a trance, he saw another green lotus crossing half the void, fiercely plunging into the depths of that darkness.
Everything seemed too ethereal and exaggerated!
When Ling Mo woke up again, all the previous discomfort had disappeared. On the contrary… his Dual Pupils had undergone a slight change.
The originally lifeless Dual Pupils now possessed a trace of divine charm! When the Dual Pupils activated, they instantly shattered a large stone in front of him into countless fragments.
Ling Mo hadn’t expected such a change.
After this change, the Dual Pupils seemed to have awakened some extraordinary supernatural ability.
Besides the original stealing function, it now had other attack capabilities.
Even more astonishing, a scripture derived from the Dual Pupils entered Ling Mo’s mind!
It seemed to be a cultivation technique that came with the inheritance, named《 Three Lives Scripture》
“Three Lives Scripture? Disrupting yin and yang, severing past and present lives, can it foresee the future?”
Ancient Supreme Dual Pupil Users were all of Great Emperor caliber, and Dual Pupils were known as the heaven-defying eyes that could see through past and present lives, past and future!
Ling Mo originally thought stealing martial souls was the most perverse thing, but the Dual Pupils’ hidden changes were even more perverse.
Fortunately, he hadn’t added soul rings to the Dual Pupils, or who knows what problems might have arisen.
“Such powerful power! Just one strike drained all my soul power…”
The power that erupted from that single glance surpassed Ling Mo fully unleashing his supernatural ability combined with the Star Crossbow.
The influence of this powerful attack meant Ling Mo’s soul power was instantly drained!
The Dual Pupils’ active attack skill was simply too powerful; with Ling Mo’s current ability, he couldn’t control it at all.
Just earlier when Ling Mo entered here, a beam of light entered his eyes, bringing up all those scenes.
After that, the beam of light disappeared! Meanwhile, the mark on Ling Mo’s forehead became more pronounced; though it had always existed, before you wouldn’t notice it unless you looked closely.
At this moment, the mark fully revealed itself, indirectly causing a series of changes in Ling Mo’s Dual Pupils.
“Three Lives Scripture? Such profound stuff, hundreds of times more profound than Xiao San’s Mysterious Heaven Skill. Is this meant for cultivation?”
Ling Mo looked it over, trying to comprehend the mysteries of the Three Lives Scripture, but with his current state of mind, he couldn’t glimpse its profundities.
However… since it was a cultivation technique attached to the Dual Pupils’ inheritance, Ling Mo should be able to cultivate it, though now wasn’t the time.
“Sin Blood Mark, what exactly is this?”
Earlier in the dream, Ling Mo heard a voice mentioning this mark.
That man who somewhat resembled Ling Mo also had such a mark.
Also, who was that man carrying a tree? Why did everyone call him the Son of Heaven?
“Forget it! No point thinking about things I can’t figure out; it probably has nothing to do with me anyway…”
Muttering to himself, Ling Mo gave up on continuing to dwell on it.
Nothing matters more than my own business!
“Since I’m here, let’s first see what treasures are inside…”
In a daze, with the idea of never leaving empty-handed, Ling Mo set aside those strange scenes in his mind and began searching the Drum Tower for valuable things.
The interior of the Drum Tower wasn’t as dilapidated as the outside; on the contrary, it was very magnificent, like a brand-new building.
Ling Mo searched from the first floor to the third, combing through every area big and small, and really found quite a few good things.
Besides the strange metals, there were even more strange treasure artifacts, which Ling Mo was certain didn’t exist on the Douluo Continent.
Everyone on Douluo has a martial soul, so treasure artifacts are rarely used unless they are divine artifacts!
Of course… these treasure artifacts hadn’t reached that level, because Ling Mo’s soul tools were already full and he couldn’t take them all, so he had to selectively discard some.
This trip exploring the Jing Jue Ancient City had truly made Ling Mo rich! More than a hundred times his gains from the previous six years.
Just these strange metals were enough for Ling Mo to refine Tang Sect’s top-tier hidden weapons, including the Buddha’s Fury Tang Lotus.
Although Ling Mo’s current strength was insufficient, that was only temporary.
With his talent, it wouldn’t be long before Ling Mo grew into one of the top-tier figures in this world.
Looking at the dazzling array of treasures, Ling Mo couldn’t put them down; abandoning them all would probably keep him awake at night.
Heartbreaking!
“Ah! I shouldn’t have given that bell to Xiao Wu…”
The more he thought, the more regretful he felt; discarding so many treasures would probably heartbreak him to death!
“No, I need to find a way to take all these things back! Once back, I’ll establish a force too.
Xiao San wants to build Tang Sect? I’ll build a Ghost Gate, specialized in grave robbery! These top-tier treasure artifacts absolutely can’t be left behind…”
Can you cast some recommendation tickets! Give me some motivation, okay… though this stuff can’t be exchanged for money.
But it has a big effect during the new book period; whether we get on the recommendations depends on the tickets in your hands! On recommendations means extra updates…
