1550 Stolen (1/2)

Xu Que was moved into the first-class compound on the same day.Xu Que was moved into the first-class compound on the same day.

Duan Qide moved into the second-class compound, which was separated by a courtyard from the first-class compound. As a disciple of the second-class compound, he wasn't allowed to enter the first-class compound.

So, during the whole night, other than a few peers from the first-class compound who saw that Xu Que was new and came to say hello briefly, no one came to disturb him.

Xu Que stayed alone in his room, looking at the dark night sky and feeling helpless.

Even though he'd found out that the Heaven Continent was already in chaos, he didn't know exactly what the situation was that Jiang Hongyan and the others were in. At this point, he was unable to return to the Heaven Continent to be with his friends. He was trapped in the world of Xuanyuan Wanrong's memory. There was no way to get out of here quickly.

That d*mn Heavenly Stone of Taiyi and that d*mn world of memory...

”There is no way I can develop feelings for Xuanyuan Wanrong. But I must continue to accumulate Acting Tough Points and then let the System force the seal. However, there are so many good things that I can get for free from the System store right now. I might as well go big and hope I can manage to get out of here in two or three days.”

Xu Que was talking to himself while examining the System interface. He was going to town, amassing things from the System store.

Soon, his System parcel was packed full. Only then was Xu Que satisfied enough to smile contentedly as he lay back on his bed.

…..

At the same time, in the Dean of the Heaven Palace Sect's study, several of the most important Elders of the Heaven Palace Sect were gathered. All of them were old men, and all of them were knowledgeable about and specialized in Divine Texts. They were sitting with the Dean, surrounding a large table and looking solemnly through a variety of ancient books of records.

Everyone was working on the translation of the Divine Text from the Tao Test Stone. As soon as there were any developments in anybody's work, they would summarize them for the Dean. Then the Dean was responsible for the direct translation.

The results, after the whole night's work, had allowed the Dean's taut expression to gradually improve.

”Gentlemen, our hard work hasn't been completely in vain. We have successfully translated one of the words in the Divine Text, and this word appears in the Divine Text on the Tao Test Stone quite a number of times.” The Dean opened his mouth to break the silence, while at the same time he picked up a piece of paper.

Only one word was written on this piece of paper. When everyone looked at it, they were all in a state of astonishment.

”Hand?”

As soon as he'd finished speaking, everyone present became first shocked and then excited.

”Unless...”

”Could it be...”

”The Divine Text that we obtained today also comes from the Art of Compelling Divine Power?”

Everyone present was in a state of shock.

The Dean nodded and said, ”Combined with what we've learned from our past experiences, if I'm not wrong, what we've obtained this time is likely to be related to the Handprint in the Art of Compelling Divine Power. It could even possibly be the rumored supreme Art of Compelling Divine Power: the Hand of God.”

”What?”

”The Hand of God!”

The Elders present stood up one by one, their bodies trembling with excitement.

The Hand of God was something from the Art of Compelling Divine Power that had first been mentioned in one of the Divine Texts originally excavated from a Divine Vestige a long time ago.

Although that section of the Divine Text was also incomplete, it had recorded the divine force of the Hand of God. It was known to be a great Deity's own Art of Compelling Divine Power. He could hide the sky with one hand and cover the ground with one hand.

Such an Art of Compelling Divine Power, if it could be obtained by the Heaven Palace Sect, they would be able to rule the whole Heaven Continent. It could also make them eligible to enter the Divine Realm in the future, and boost their future power in any war.

”Everyone, keep working hard to translate the Divine Text, as much as you can.” The Dean was in an extremely good mood and encouraged everyone present to keep working nonstop.

”Yes!” The Elders' blood was boiling. They were excited and continued to devote themselves to the translation work.

WHOOSH!

At this time, a flow of light flashed past and directly rushed forward in front of the Dean. It was a classified order.

The Dean stared blankly and frowned slightly.

It was a classified order of the highest level, and only he was qualified to look at it. However, generally, this kind of classified order wouldn't be issued lightly. This must mean that there was something really important going on.

He began to look serious and took the classified order. He opened his Mind Sense and began to look through the contents.

After a short while, the Dean's face changed, and he turned around straight away to leave the study.
