Chapter 805 Derive (1/2)
However, as soon as the wisp of Spirit power entered, it triggered a very sensitive reaction. A subtle power erupted from the bamboo slip, and within seconds, the Genesis Rune on the scroll rapidly faded like melting snow.
“The self-destruct setting is so sensitive.”
Zhou Yuan’s eyes flashed, but he wasn’t too surprised. After all, this was only his first attempt. If it were that simple, he would find it even more unbelievable.
He crushed the jade bamboo slip and took out another Mark Capturing Rune.
Zhou Yuan directly shattered the bamboo slip against his chest, and suddenly a beam of light erupted out, gradually forming a bizarre Genesis Rune on his chest.
The Genesis Rune penetrated right into his flesh and blood, and streams of light spread around to form a strange network, like a cobweb at a glance.
The cobweb spread all over his upper body, and each connection was very clever. Although it looked extremely fragile and didn’t seem to have any defense or attack power, Zhou Yuan knew that if he was in the Four Spirits Origin Tower, there would be cobwebs stuck inside his body once this Genesis Rune penetrated his body.
“What a marvelous Genesis Rune.” Zhou Yuan marveled as he observed with his Spirit and nodded repeatedly.
The Mark Capturing Rune appeared simple but was in fact very complicated because the veins were changing constantly, which was also the main reason why it was difficult to reproduce.
Moreover, Zhou Yuan keenly felt that he needed to use some kind of special material as the medium to engrave the Mark Capturing Rune, but he couldn’t figure out the specific materials. This was presumably the Fire Pavilion’s biggest secret.
If he was to reproduce the Mark Capturing Rune, he had to figure out what the materials were, and that was obviously not an easy thing to do.
Moreover, the Mark Capturing Rune was so fragile it would crumble with the slightest touch. This was the reason why Zhou Yuan couldn’t let his Spirit penetrate it directly for observation.
After an hour, Zhou Yuan retracted his Spirit and saw that the Mark Capturing Rune had gradually faded from his chest.
Zhou Yuan’s face took on a thoughtful expression. In truth, the principles of the Mark Capturing Rune weren’t particularly complex, but some of the key areas were indeed difficult to figure out, such as the special materials contained.
Therefore the difficulty in reproducing it was quite high.
Adding to this, because Yaoyao, a Genesis Rune master, was always around him, his mastery in Genesis Runes had constantly deepened.
Since someone of the Fire Pavilion with a Spirit of the Transformative stage could produce the Mark Capturing Rune, he believed he could also do the same.
However, thinking of Yaoyao, Zhou Yuan’s eyes suddenly dimmed a little. If she were around, they could have solved the Mark Capturing Rune within minutes.
“Yaoyao, wait for me, I’m trying my best. I’m working hard to get the Ancestral Dragon Lantern and the ancestral dragon blood and flesh so that you can recover,” Zhou Yuan whispered to himself, his hands uncontrollably clenching tight. He really missed the days when Yaoyao and Tuntun were always beside him.
Compared with those times, he was indeed a little lonely by himself in Hunyuan Heaven.
But Zhou Yuan wasn’t a person who would be immersed in the past. He took a deep breath and suppressed the emotions in his heart. Since he couldn’t return to his previous life, he had to continue to work hard, rather than meaninglessly fantasising here.
