Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“So this is the Ashen Seal?”
Lin Sheng stood there in a daze. He did not expect the surprise to co so easily, but he did not know if it worked.
He flipped through the book and read about how to ditate.
The woman nad Ancellia had ntioned that the Ashen Seal could not last very long.
Yet, it appeared to be all right now.
Lin Sheng quickly morized the ditation thod then turned back to the page where the seal was.
Beneath the Ashen Seal was a line of small delicate writing.
“Ashen Seal: the Sanctuary.
“Note: the spiritual requirents for ditating on the Ashen Seal are extrely high, and failure to et them for the first ti can lead to serious consequences.”
“The Sanctuary? Is that the na of this Ashen Seal?”
After he read the book for a while, he already knew that each Ashen Seal had a different function. And different seals were inherited by different temples in different regions. Therefore, knights in different regions had different styles of fighting due to the different seals they inherited.
The Ashen Seal in front of him was the Ashen Seal of Blackfeather City’s temple, the Sanctuary.
“I should just try it.” Lin Sheng stared at the Ashen Seal decisively.
The White Tarots incident greatly angered him.
Apparently, the White Tarots had stopped harassing him and his family due to the intervention from Russell’s family, otherwise, they would have never given up.
He needed to be stronger!
For the first ti, he was so eager for power.
He stared at it nonstop, not blinking. It took more than twenty seconds to complete the first Ashen Seal imprint.
Lin Sheng kept his eyes wide open, fixing them on the Ashen Seal.
One, two, three... he counted in his mind.
His eyes were sore and tingling. He wanted to blink, but he restrained himself.
Twenty-five seconds passed by quickly. Fearing that he may have made any mistakes in his counting, he waited five more seconds just in case.
He closed his eyes and rested for more than a minute before he opened them again.
He was surprised to find that the Ashen Seal seed to have taken root in his mind. He could easily recall it whenever he wanted, and he could even rember the details of every line vividly.
“Yes!” Lin Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.
According to the book, that ant the first Ashen Seal imprint was successful.
However, the book recorded that only people with extrely strong will and spirit could succeed on the first attempt, and that puzzled him.
Most needed to try at least ten tis to be able to complete the Ashen Seal imprint.
He knew his own level, and though he had so self-control, it would be a joke to say that his will was extrely strong.
“Is it because I’ve absorbed so many pieces of mory?”
Lin Sheng closed the book and closed his eyes to recall it. The Ashen Seal had indeed magically stayed in his mind.
As soon as he thought of it, the Ashen Seal imdiately erged before him like a picture.
“Cool!” He was amazed.
The church did not seem to be in danger, so he just kept testing the seal.
The book was very thick, and there was much he had yet to read, hence he just took his ti.
Lin Sheng stood in front of the altar and read the rest of the book. Unfortunately, apart from the little information on the Ashen Seal, the rest of the book consisted of poems and songs praising God.
The church believed in Hir, the god of light.
He stood there reading until his vision began to blur. He realized it was ti to wake up.
Closing the book, he stepped down and went out. He quickly closed the iron fence in the yard followed by the church door. This gave him a sense of security.
Then, he sat down on a bench to rest, falling asleep soon after.
...
Lin Sheng turned over and jumped out of bed.
He was filled with anticipation after the dream.
He did not expect to get the Ashen Seal so easily
If it had not been for the ti constraint, he would have searched the church again. Maybe he could have found sothing good, such as equipnt.
In front of his desk, Lin Sheng cald down, closed his eyes, and began to recall the Ashen Seal.
To his surprise, the Ashen Seal, which was supposed to be very difficult and required a high level of ntal willpower, ca to his mind in a flash. It was extrely clear.
The ditation of the Ashen Seal was very simple.
He just needed to focus on the runes of the Ashen Seal as they clearly erged in his mind. He stared at a segnt of the runes and began to move along the line of runes all the way to the end. If one did it all the way to the end, it was considered a successful ditation cycle.
Without wasting any ti, Lin Sheng imdiately began to try.
To his surprise, the first step was simple. The runes ca to mind quickly. But, not the second step. It was hard to focus, stare at the line of runes, then move along the line all the way to the end.
After three attempts, he succeeded only once. And after his success, there was no special feeling. After completing one cycle, Lin Sheng continued to ditate and succeeded twice.
He felt exhausted and drowsy after so ti so he went back to bed.
This ti, however, he did not enter the dream realm again.
The next morning, Lin Sheng carried his sword, left the house, and took a bus to the club.
The previous incident had given him another plan. Russell’s grandfather solved the problem this ti, but what about next ti?
He knew that he possessed the power of the dreams and that sooner or later, he would take an extraordinary route, therefore it was better to be prepared in advance.
The bus stopped at Steelscale Club. After he got off the bus, he quickly walked into the club.
The receptionist nodded and smiled politely.
“Good morning, Mr. Lin. So early today?”
“Hmm, I couldn’t sleep well so I ca in earlier. Are they coming?” Lin Sheng asked casually.
“Miss Shayeen is here, but the others aren’t. They only co once in a while when you’re not here,” the receptionist whispered back.
Lin Sheng nodded and hurried up to the second floor. He quickly reached the only room with an open door and turned right into it.
Shayeen was standing by the window talking on the phone.
Noticing that Lin Sheng had entered the room, she paused for a mont and quickly ended the conversation.
“Master, why are you here today?” She wondered.
“I have an idea, but I need to ask your permission.”
“What is it?”
“I plan to open a defense club and also a training class on self-defense.”
“Self-defense?” Shayeen blinked.
