Reincarnated As A Fox With System

Chapter 456: [Soul Slaying Sword]!

When Tang Li Xue saw the two items in her grasp, she felt really disappointed since she thought these two items did not seem that useful for her.

Actually, Tang Li Xue much prefer divine pills or heavenly fruits that could quickly increase her strength or made her gain more divine abilities rather than any martial art manuals.

She already has [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula], [The Art of Concealment], and [Essence Devouring Technique] to learn anyway. 

Those three arts have different purposes, and Tang Li Xue did not want to abandon any of them, so those three arts should be more than enough to keep her busy for a while. 

Not to mention she also has [Heavenly Sword Immortal’s Manual] in her mind that she had not completely digested yet.

Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and asked with a tone filled with displeasure: “What are these things? A burnt scroll and a thick book?! Don’t tell me these two trashes… Cough… Cough… I mean these two items… oh and also that useless tiny sword are the only inheritance I got?!”

” You…! How rude! Young one, you really do not know how to appreciate the real treasures! If some people from the Central Continent know that you have these two items right now, you will surely get robbed and killed by them right after you step out from this tomb!” Tomb Owner’s Will felt insulted by Tang Li Xue’s exclamation and immediately scolded her back.

Tang Li Xue did not want to waste more of her precious time in Inheritance Ground Tablet to argue with the Tomb Owner’s Will, so she decided to yield to him and said: “All right, I get it. I am sorry, okay? What are these things? Ancient martial art manual?”

“Ancient martial art manual you said?! Of course not! That burnt scroll is a divine rank martial art manual from Divine World! I accidentally found it when I investigated the remnant of a falling meteor!” Tomb Owner’s Will quickly explained with an agitated tone, so Tang Li Xue would know the true worth of the two items in her grasp.

“Eh… Divine… WHAT?! Divine rank martial art manual from Divine World?! Are you serious? You… You are not kidding with me, aren’t you?” Tang Li Xue jumped back and widened her eyes in shock while she asked the Tomb Owner’s Will with high pitched tone.

Tang Li Xue did not wait for the reply from Tomb Owner’s Will and impatiently unfurled the burnt scroll in her grasp.

But she immediately frowned deeper when she saw the content of the burnt scroll.

The scroll itself already burnt so badly, and only about 20 percent of the content could still be read while the rest already got burnt.

In Tang Li Xue’s opinion, the content of this scroll might be already undecipherable, since the scroll itself was already badly damaged.

Of course, the value of this burnt scroll would be still immeasurable and could make any immortal powerhouse go crazy in greed if the content of this burnt scroll was truly a Divine rank martial art from Divine World.

‘Is the content of this scroll really Divine Rank Martial Art? Then… let’s check it… System!’ Tang Li Xue doubtfully thought as she raised her right hand and touched the content of the burnt scroll with her palm.

Ding!

[More than eighty percent of the information recorded in this scroll had been badly damaged.]

[System will match the content of the badly damaged scroll with the record from the database. The cost for the access will be 6,500 Deity Coins. Do you agree? Yes/No]

‘What the hell! 6,500 Deity Coins?! And… that is to just restore the content! The cost to comprehend it must be even more expensive than that! Ooh, come on! System, you must be joking with me, right?! How the hell can I pay that much?!’ Tang Li Xue groaned and complained to her system.

The most expensive art that Tang Li Xue had ever seen until now was [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula], and it was only cost 3,000 Deity Coins in total to comprehend it if she did not already comprehend [Extreme Yin Technique] and [Heavenly Yang Art].

[It is because the content of this badly damaged scroll is much more profound and valuable than the previous [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula].]

‘Eh? Really? Can you help me check which one is more precious? The content of this burnt scroll or the [Sun Dragon King’s Pearl] in my Dantian?’ Tang Li Xue tried to probe if her system could help her compare which one was more valuable between the [Sun Dragon King’s Pearl] and the Divine Martial Art written in the burnt scroll.

[The information recorded in the badly damaged scroll is 317 percent more valuable than the [Sun Dragon King’s Pearl].]

‘Oh… My… God~! The content of this lousy burnt scroll is actually worth 3 times more than my [Sun Dragon King’s Pearl]?! Are you really serious?!’ Tang Li Xue dropped her jaw in shock and disbelief.

Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue did not have enough Deity Coins right now, or she would certainly let her system restore the content of this burnt scroll and comprehend it on the spot.

Tang Li Xue took a deep breath to calm herself down, but the Tomb Owner’s Will thought that Tang Li Xue did not believe his words, so he asked: “If you do not believe me, then I can give you one more chance to replace them for another inheritance. How about that?”

She swiftly stored the burnt scroll into her space pouch since she was really afraid that the Tomb Owner’s Will would take back the burnt scroll from her.

“Thank you, there is no need for that! I like burnt-out things! They taste more delicious and also more fragrant.” Tang Li Xue said as she smiled magnanimously with a tone as if she truly accepted some loss.

The Tomb Owner’s Will: “…..”

‘This young one… she did not really plan to eat that precious scroll later, right?’ The Tomb Owner’s Will doubtfully thought.

Tang Li Xue immediately tried to change the subject and asked: “Then what is this thick book? This is not a dictionary, right? Just so you know, I really hate reading any dictionary!”

“That is the result of my lifelong research to decipher the content of that burnt scroll. It was really hard since the scroll is too badly damaged, but I managed to find out most of the content through many experiments, trials, and errors.” The Tomb Owner’s Will said with a proud tone.

“Hmm… So, you are saying that the content of this thick book is only the speculation you deduce from the burnt scroll?” Tang Li Xue inquired in a skeptical tone.

“Spec… ‘Speculation’ you said?! Of course not! I really managed to restore the content of the burnt-out scroll in the end! That tiny transparent sword is the actual proof! No, I already named it Soul Slaying Sword before I passed away!” The Tomb Owner’s Will angrily shouted to scold Tang Li Xue.

“Soul Slaying Sword? Such a grandiose name… Is that tiny sword really that formidable? I thought it can only be used to kill some weak normal chicken with its puny size.” Tang Li Xue lazily said as she completely looked down at the tiny transparent sword.

However, Tang Li Xue still decided to open the thick book and touched the content of the thick book with her right palm to let her system check it for her.

When she opened the first page, there was only [Soul Slaying Sword] written on it with a crooked font.

It seems the owner of this Crystal Palace Tomb really planned to name it [Soul Slaying Sword] in his last moment.

‘System, can you help me check how much the similarity between the content of this thick book and the content of the burnt scroll?’ Tang Li Xue thought as she tried to ask her system.

[Checking… The matching level is at 21.7% with the original content.]

Tang Li Xue sighed in relief. At least her system was not greedy enough to ask for some Deity Coins to check that kind of information.

‘Damn! Only about 21% is correct?! This Heavenly Sword Immortal really wasted most of his life for nothing!’ Tang Li Xue exclaimed in her mind.

‘Wait a minute… System, can I know what the title of the content of the burnt scroll is?’ Tang Li Xue once again tried to ask for some information from her system.

[Checking… The title is [Divine Soul Forge].]

‘[Divine Soul Forge]? Woah… Even the name is already super OP! Ahhh, I cannot wait to learn it!’ Tang Li Xue’s topaz blue eyes shone brightly in excitement.

But then she immediately grumbled in disappointment: ‘Sigh… Forget it. I do not even have 1,000 Deity Coins to comprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula] right now. Let’s take step by step for now. I should comprehend [Yin and Yang Chaotic Formula] and [Essence Devouring Technique] first.’ 

“Can only be used to kill some weak normal chicken? Puny size? Young one, your sight is really limited by your pathetic level of cultivation. Just so you know, you can use that puny [Soul Slaying Sword] to easily slay any Nascent Soul Stage cultivator in one strike even with your current cultivation if you can use it correctly.” The Tomb Owner’s Will bragged to Tang Li Xue.

Tang Li Xue did not say anything and only glared disdainfully at the Tomb Owner’s Will as if he was saying something stupid like ‘you can buy a mansion with a dried weed’. 

“Sigh… if you really do not believe my words, I can let you choose…” The Tomb Owner’s Will wanted to let Tang Li Xue pick another inheritance if she really did not believe his words, but Tang Li Xue surely did not want to change her current inheritance, so she interrupted his words halfway.

“All right! So, all of these are the inheritance I got, right? You can send me out right now. You see… My time is really precious, and I am actually very busy! I must pick another important inheritance after this!” Tang Li Xue suddenly blurted out as she quickly stored the thick book into her space pouch too.

“Nope, you still have three more items as your inheritance. Do you still want to accept it? You can also choose to abandon it and quit from this tomb if you want to save your precious time. How about it?” The Tomb Owner’s Will asked Tang Li Xue.

Tang Li Xue: “…..”

“Why don’t you said so before? Do you really need to give me two items first? Just hurry up and bring all of them out in one go.” Tang Li Xue replied with an annoyed tone.
