Chapter 207: Eight Divine Incantations

In the Blue Hill army’s main camp, the commanding general was Tuoba Wujiang of the Blue Hill Kingdom. He was a large man with explosive muscles and eyes as big as copper bells, like Zhang Fei come to life. However, Tuoba Wujiang was much more cunning than he appeared. As Yue Feipeng’s formidable opponent, he was no ordinary man. Although he had lost to Yue Feipeng twice, he still maintained control of Blue Hill’s military affairs, showing his strength and background.

“Come, come, Celestial Master Zhang, this battle’s success is thanks to you,” Tuoba Wujiang personally went down to pour wine for a middle-aged man seated below. The man had loose hair with a headband, a beautiful feather stuck in it, and wore a yellow robe. He exuded a strange aura.

“It’s a small matter. When the general achieves victory, don’t forget what you promised me,” Celestial Master Zhang smiled.

“Of course, we’re still counting on Celestial Master Zhang’s divine arts for the upcoming battles,” Tuoba Wujiang said happily. The two chatted pleasantly. Afterward, Tuoba Wujiang arranged for two beautiful courtesans to be sent to Celestial Master Zhang’s tent.

As night fell deep, the entire camp quieted down. Patrols of soldiers carrying torches diligently made their rounds, but these patrols were useless against Zhanyue, who possessed the earth traversing ability.

“Mmm... mmm... oh...” Sounds of pleasure reached Zhanyue’s ears. He instantly understood what was happening. Only someone extraordinary would dare to indulge so openly in such a place. Zhanyue immediately approached.

Inside the large tent, one figure was entangled with two others. The soldiers guarding outside swallowed hard, envious.Fôllôw new stories at novelhall.com

“Celestial Master Zhang really has good fortune with women, singing and dancing every night. Not like us, bitterly standing guard outside,” one soldier said.

“If you had Celestial Master Zhang’s abilities, you could do the same. But you don’t, so accept your fate. Guard the door well, maybe you can become a squad leader in the future, bringing glory to your ancestors,” another soldier advised.

“Sigh, how do you think Celestial Master Zhang can control wind and rain? That’s real immortal magic. Is he an immortal in the mortal world?”

“If I knew, would I be standing guard with you? Stop talking, be careful the captain doesn’t catch us slacking off.”

The two fell silent, but these few sentences had stirred up a storm in Zhanyue’s mind. “Someone really can use magic to control wind and rain? And that person is in this tent.”

After a while, the activity in the tent subsided. The two guards at the door suddenly felt a pain in their necks and collapsed. Then Zhanyue entered the tent. Celestial Master Zhang was cautious; the entrance was full of bells that would alert him to intruders. However, Zhanyue simply used earth traversing to enter.

“Mmm... sleep, stop bothering me, I’m tired,” Celestial Master Zhang lay in bed, embracing two women. Zhanyue explored the tent, putting all clothes and objects into his divine ability space, thinking they might be useful. He emptied the entire tent, living up to his thief reputation. Looking at the three on the bed, Zhanyue first knocked out the two women, then after some thought, also knocked out Celestial Master Zhang. This man was supposed to have some divine arts or magic, but he seemed no different from an ordinary person.

“Can you read these characters?” Zhanyue asked.

Celestial Master Zhang shook his head, “I... I don’t understand them, but I... can recite them.”

“What do you mean? Explain clearly!” Zhanyue demanded sternly.

“I really don’t recognize the writing, I found this thing deep in a cave, it was buried under many skeletons. But after looking at it for a long time, I strangely learned to recite it,” Celestial Master Zhang explained.

“Oh? Then what does it say?” Zhanyue continued to ask.

Celestial Master Master Zhang was about to say something when he suddenly felt his throat blocked, unable to speak. Then his eyes rolled back, and he fell dead.

“What... what happened?” Zhanyue was stunned by Celestial Master Zhang’s sudden death. “Could it be some curse? Did this Celestial Master Zhang reveal some secret, violating a curse, and thus died?” Zhanyue analyzed. It was the only explanation he could think of.

Zhanyue was surprised because he recognized the writing in the booklet. He had bought annotations of the languages of the myriad races on Ghost Island, and this was among them. It was the writing of the Incantation God race, also known as incantation script.

After reading, Zhanyue found that the booklet contained eight incantations. The first was the ‘Great Strength Vajra Incantation’; the second, the ‘Wind and Rain Summoning Incantation’; the third, the ‘Mountain Moving and Sea Filling Incantation’; the fourth, the ‘Star Shifting Incantation’; the fifth, the ‘Heaven and Earth Reversing Incantation’; the sixth, the ‘Cause and Effect Reversing Incantation’. As for the seventh and eighth, Zhanyue couldn’t recognize them. It wasn’t that he couldn’t recognize them, but reading them was extremely difficult, as if even saying their names or thinking about them would make his head explode.

Zhanyue breathed heavily, “How terrifying, what is this? Just thinking about it nearly killed me.”

When he looked at the booklet again, he found all the writing had disappeared. He immediately understood that everything had entered his mind.

“This thing is just like those cultivation methods. It seems once obtained, it’s obtained for good. Even if the mission fails, it won’t be erased from my mind. It must be a hidden benefit of this trial,” Zhanyue thought happily. However, it was a pity that he had no idea how to use these incantations, and the only person who knew had died. The Incantation God race was a very mysterious race, one of the myriad races of the past. It was said that each of them had three mouths, one on the face and one on each hand, used in combination to chant incantations. Unfortunately, this was all Zhanyue knew about them.

“With this Celestial Master Zhang dealt with, General Yue can rest easy. But fighting like this, who knows how long it will take,” Zhanyue thought. Since he was here, wouldn’t it be great if he could just kill the enemy commander? If he could secretly bring out Celestial Master Zhang, he might be able to bring out Tuoba Wujiang’s head.
