Chapter 143 Supreme-grade Numinous Treasure: The Eastern Emperor’s Bell!

William and Bud’s guesses were correct. The aura emanating from Linley’s room was that of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell!

As for how Linley had acquired the Eastern Emperor’s Bell, that all began more than ten days ago.

That day, when Linley had been staring into the starry skies, he had sensed the auras of countless experts from the Far South region and the Far North region.

He had been meditating at the peak of the mountain for an entire night.

The system had repeatedly given him a new cultivation technique.

This cultivation technique was given to him by the system after his power had risen to the level of the Great Sage, and at the same time, he had completely mastered the power of the Eastern Emperor.

The name of this cultivation technique was: the ‘Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s Supreme Art’!

The Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s Supreme Art, as its name implied, was a mnemonic technique created by the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

As for who was Taiyi the Eastern Emperor?

Simply put, he was the first Summary done in the history of the magic continent.

The Eastern Emperor, named Taiyi, was the first person in the East to comprehend the presence of magic power.

He was also the first Enchanter in history.

Although his highest cultivation was only at the peak of the Enchanter Realm.

He had, for the first time in history, created a way for Enchanters to cultivate.

At the same time, he had created a mystic ability only for the East.

It could be said that in the entire Eastern continent, all the Enchanters who cultivated to the system were created by this genius.

After him, all the Enchanters in the entire Eastern continent followed the path of Enchanters that he had created to advance. Step by step, they went from being magic apprentices to walking on the path of Enchanters.

It wasn’t until a few thousand years later that another genius, Gandalf, appeared out of nowhere in the East.

On the basis of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Gandalf creatively opened up the path from an Enchanter to a Sage, a Great Sage, and even a High Magus Rank.

It allowed not only the East, but all the Enchanters in the entire continent, to find a new path to become an Enchanter!

If one had to compare the greatness of Gandalf and the Eastern Emperor Taiyi…

It would be very difficult.

One of them had let the world know of the existence of magic, thus allowing Enchanters to appear on the magic continent and breaking the monopoly of swordsmen on the continent of martial arts.

The other had let the world know that Enchanters could surpass swordsmen, thus raising the status of Enchanters on the magic continent and allowing them to suppress swordsmen for the first time. This caused the entire continent to be in a frenzy of practicing Enchanters.

Hence, in summary:

In today’s world, in the East, West, South, North, and Middle regions, there were so many Enchanters, which was the credit of Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

And in today’s world, the reason why there were so many high-ranked Enchanters in the North and South regions was the credit of Gandalf.

The two of them were the twin stars of the magic continent. They were destined to be written into the books of Enchanters and be passed down through the ages!

Other than that, if there was any other connection between the two of them, the only thing that the people of the continent could think of was this:

The Eastern Emperor’s Bell!

In the history of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell, only the two of them, Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Gandalf, had ever owned it…

The time between Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Gandalf was almost 6,000 years apart.

Nobody knew how the Eastern Emperor’s Bell was passed down.

As for the origin of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell, everyone on the continent knew about it.

According to the legends, the Eastern Emperor’s Bell was a supreme-grade numinous treasure that was formed from the energy of the four locations in the Far East where there was no one in the entire continent who cultivated magic!

As for why it was called the Eastern Emperor’s Bell, it was because the Eastern Emperor’s Bell had an ability that caused everyone to gasp in admiration:

When the Eastern Emperor’s Bell owner activated it, it would gather all the spiritual energy in the world above the owner’s head to form a huge bell!

As long as the owner was in the bell, no matter how high one’s cultivation level was or how powerful one’s mystic ability was, as long as one did not have a supreme-grade numinous treasure of the same level, it would be difficult for the owner to be harmed in the slightest!

Moreover, the bell also had an ability: it did not need to consume any magic power.

It could absorb the magic power of Heaven and Earth for its own use, continuously forming an impregnable defense around its owner.

It could be said that, with the Eastern Emperor’s Bell around, the Eastern Emperor would never die!

As for why the Eastern Emperor Taiyi would still die with the Eastern Emperor’s Bell around, it was because his lifespan had come to an end, but he did not have the means to advance to the Sage Realm, so he died…

As for why Gandalf had died despite possessing the Eastern Emperor’s Bell, no one knew…

In fact, if it hadn’t been for Linley finding the gems of remains in the ruins and becoming the new Eastern Emperor, many people would have thought that Gandalf was still alive!

…

But then again, why had the Eastern Emperor’s Bell suddenly been mentioned?

Because the Eastern Emperor’s Bell was a spiritual treasure. Every time the previous owner of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell passed away, it would automatically disappear from the world, disappearing from the eyes of the world.

It would only reappear after the next Eastern Emperor was born.

In history, after the death of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, the Eastern Emperor’s Bell had gone into seclusion for thousands of years. No one had inherited the Eastern Emperor’s Bell after that. This caused many people to think that the Eastern Emperor’s Bell had disappeared.

It was only after the birth of Gandalf and his ascension to the Sage Realm that the Eastern Emperor’s Bell suddenly appeared.

Only then did the Eastern Emperor’s Bell once again enter the eyes of the world.

As for how Gandalf had summoned the Eastern Emperor’s Bell, there was a legend in the world:

In his dream, Gandalf had acquired a mnemonic formula known as the ‘Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s Supreme Art’.

As he chanted this mnemonic formula, the Eastern Emperor’s Bell appeared in front of him.

As for whether this legend was true or not, no one knew.

Only, the ‘Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s Supreme Art’ had never appeared in the world.

Until…

Through the reward of the system, Linley acquired this mnemonic formula.

The mnemonic is actually not long, only a few dozen words.

After Linley got the mnemonic, within a few minutes he had memorized it by heart.

But, to his consternation, the mnemonic did not seem to work.

For many days he had been carrying his back straight, backwards, slant-backed, lying on his back, or even accelerating.

It had no effect at all!

How was this chant to be used?

The system hadn’t said anything, and Linley hadn’t been able to see through it at all.

However, he believed that the system wouldn’t lie to him.

Even if the system hadn’t said anything, he still remembered that he had a special ability that allowed him to ‘break through as long as he repeatedly trained in a certain number of techniques’!

Thus, over the past few days, he hadn’t given up.

Ever since the day he had meditated and reached the level of the Great Sage, Linley had spent the past ten or so days continuously chanting the ‘Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s Supreme Art’.

It wasn’t that he wanted to fight to the death, but right now, he had a feeling that if he wanted to fight against powerful experts from the North and the South, he had to first master this chant!

As for the rest, he could put them aside for now.

But of course, there was another reason. In truth, even Linley himself hadn’t expected that Walton would rise to become a Great Sage so quickly!

Even he hadn’t expected that the system’s ‘Epiphany’ would be so powerful.

And as he chanted day after day, the number of times he chanted the ‘Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s Supreme Art’ increased…!!

Until..

This day.

The day before Walton rose to become a Great Sage.

That was when he chanted the ‘Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s Supreme Art’ for the 367824th time.

“Buzz!”

A golden light circled around his body!

Soon, the system notification rang in his mind:

“Ding! Detected that the owner has chanted the ‘Eastern Emperor Taiyi’s Supreme Art’ for the required number of times. The owner’s devotion towards the Eastern Emperor’s Bell has touched the bell itself…!”

“The Eastern Emperor’s Bell has awakened from its slumber…”

“Ding! Congratulations to the owner for successfully possessing a numinous treasure: the Eastern Emperor’s Bell!”
