Chapter 378
hapter 378 The Twelve Runes 

              

    Mu Yi returned to the inn . The assassination attempt was both a failure and a success . He never thought there would be such a strong man on that side . No matter how bad the government of the Qing Dynasty was, they still had strength .  

   The key belonged to the Qing government anyway . If the Yellow River’s ancient road was opened, the people who stole the key would appear . They would definitely try to take it back then . The Qing government could send a strong man, which meant the people who were sent by Mao Mountain, Longhu Mountain and Baidi town would be much stronger . Even the strongest man of Shaolin Temple was asked to command their people .

    Mu Yi didn’t know the real strength of the ancient city of Dunhuang, but it couldn’t be bad since no one schemed against them . Mu Yi deduced he was the weakest one who owned the key . If the person who stole the key didn’t have great strength, it would be impossible to steal in the Forbidden City . After all there was someone at the top of the third difficulty there . The person’s courage was admirable .

   He fought with strong men so many times, but always lagged behind . If he had to choose do or die, his weakness would appear immediately . It was better to persuade Fan Yuan to be an ally, but he refused . Mu Yi’s position became even more awkward . He couldn’t fawn on the people from Mao Mountain and Longhu Mountain . He was unfamiliar with the people from Baidi Town and the ancient city of Dunhuang .

   Mu Yi had no idea what he could do besides improve himself . At present, the only way he could enhance his strength was the Xin lamp . He could try to open the fifth chakra early, which would damage his foundation and take time to recover from . However, Mu Yi didn’t want to use this method unless he was in a desperate situation .

    The Xin lamp was a precious magic tool, which transcended religious tools . It was used to control Nanming Li Fire and absorb the Power of Faith, nothing else . Those were just it’s basic functions as long as he improved and studied it, it could be more useful .

    Mu Yi sat on the bed with his knees crossed . He called out the Xin lamp and placed it in front of him . The flame vibrated slightly, reacting to his aura . Mu Yi closed his eyes and merged his mind and spirit with the Xin lamp . He used the lamp to hone his mind and spirit making it extremely pure . Mu Yi’s spirit entered the space of Nanming Li Fire . It had taken the form of a miniature lotus .

    He felt it contained something but even as the owner of the Xin lamp, he couldn’t guess what it was . Mu Yi distracted himself by exploring the Xin lamp thoroughly . He found some runes that were almost the same as those on the base of the lamp . The runes must have built the space . However, Mu Yi found that the runes were not complete . It was the main reason why the Xin lamp couldn’t fully recover . It would take a year or more to recover by itself .  

   How can I replenish these runes?

    He didn’t know the meaning of these runes . He couldn’t replenish them without knowing, even though he learned charms from the old Taoist priest .  The only thing he could do was shorten the time of the recovery of the Xin lamp . It needed more energy . Mu Yi’s mind worked and the light of the Xin lamp became brighter . The lamp oil decreased sharply in return .

Nanming Li Fire wanted to grab the lamp oil that was accumulated . However, Mu Yi suppressed its consciousness . The power of Nanming Li Fire was infinite, but it’s consciousness was like a baby when facing Mu Yi . The runes absorbed the oil quickly . One by one, the runes lit up . There were nine complete runes and three fragmentary runes, which meant the Xin lamp had twelve runes .

The Bamboo Tree of Life only had one complete rune so that it was quite different from precious magic tools . With the consumption of lamp oil, the nine runes shone and the fragments filled with a tiny light . Mu Yi was excited as it seemed his thought was correct . The lamp oil was used constantly and the three runes recovered slowly but much faster than before .  

    The lamp oil was used quickly since there wasn’t a lot . When the lamp oil was exhausted, the three runes had only recovered a little . Mu Yi had to wake up regretfully . He looked at the Xin lamp and felt that the connection between them was closer . The Xin lamp did not change . It still needed time to recover and it had no oil .

   It was difficult to get oil . To recover the three runes completely, he needed at least ten times as much lamp oil as before . He needed ten people like Ning Wuque who had been a senior at the top of the second difficulty .   Mu Yi always met strong men, but they were rare .

The number of people at the top of the third difficulty was no more than ten . In accordance with projections, the strongest men could be seven or eight times more powerful than the top of the third difficulty . Mu Yi thought it might be two or three times, which meant there were twenty or thirty truly strong men in the world .

Those people were living in seclusion trying to break through the last step . The importance of the Yellow River’s ancient road led many strong men to appear . Therefore, the mainstream world was still at the top of the second difficulty . The seniors of the second difficulty, who were the leaders of all major forces .

    There were few strong men who were greedy for power, unless they had greater ambitions . There were many strong cultivators from Zhengzhou but most of them were on-lookers . If Mu Yi didn’t want to be an enemy of the world, he had to eliminate the idea of murdering people for lamp oil . He had to improve by himself .
