Chapter 528: Chapter 528
Jiang Yuan searched through his slightly distant memories and found a blurry "NPC" face.
Then he recalled that Old Man Wan had mentioned to him before, saying that Lin Dayou had tried to communicate with his wife and children through dreams. His wife and daughter could always meet him successfully, but his son had never succeeded.
For this reason, he asked Tang Qin to teach the Dream Communication Technique to the old man to help the Lin Family reunite.
The Dream Communication Technique can be used in the real world. Jiang Yuan also helped those tragic female ghosts say goodbye to their families through dreams. He thought this matter was long settled, but it still didn’t work?
Thinking about this, he glanced again at the Faith Value page.
Lin Dayou’s wife Qiao Mei and daughter Lin Chunxi had accumulated quite a bit of Faith Value, but Lin Chunsheng’s name was still absent.
This is a bit strange; after all, he was the savior of their family, giving them money to live steadily in Anping Town. Even if not as devout as his mother and sister, there should be some gratitude, right?
"Well... Uncle Lin, have you asked Aunty? Could it be that Chunsheng is sick?"
Wan Mingchuan, who had a good relationship with Lin Family siblings, curiously asked, "The Dream Communication Technique belongs to the magic of Ghost Cultivators. If this doesn’t work, either Chunsheng’s body is too weak to handle it, or something is blocking the magic."
The other party hesitated and said, "I can’t say for sure, that’s why I told Mr. Jiang that Chunsheng seems off. Your aunty is a diligent person, and after settling in Anping Town, she used the spare money to open a small shop selling buns and pickles, and sent Chunxi and Chunsheng to school.
During the dream communication, they said Chunsheng was eating well, sleeping well, and growing taller, looking robust with no problem at all.
But recently, we don’t know who he got familiar with at school. He often doesn’t come home, or returns home silent, with an increasing temper, either complaining about the poverty or sulking by himself.
I am truly worried, you all know these days are unstable. Unable to communicate through dreams, and the child’s temper radically changing, I worry if... some dirty thing followed him?"
"Sounds more like he has a crush on some girl," Wan An analyzed casually, "Nowadays, those who can send their kids to school in Anping Town are surely wealthy. Chunsheng constantly grumbles about the home condition, maybe he fancies a lady from a rich family."
Lin Dayou scratched his head, feeling a bit troubled, and said, "Anyway, it’s not urgent; I was hoping Mr. Jiang or Mingchuan, passing through Anping Town, could check on the trio to ensure Chunsheng is alright.
As for money, I can earn some here and exchange it for Copper Coins or Silver at the Black Market, then send it back to them. Slowly, life will get better."
Jiang Yuan looked at the side quest and nodded in agreement, "I’ll be quite busy recently, but when I have time, I’ll take a trip to Anping Town and inform you of the specific situation then."
Having received a definite answer, Lin Dayou thanked him quickly, then discussed the price increase with Wan An before rushing off to manage his business.
The brief visit ended, and another busy night swiftly passed.
The next morning, when the flowers in the greenhouse just bloomed, Jiang Yuan couldn’t wait to pick a bunch and take them to Old Dragon Cave.
"Good morning, how are you feeling today?" The little elf You Meng, with her timeless "NPC" tone, flew over behind the World Tree leaves to greet him.
[Achievement: Elf You Meng’s favorability reached one diamond! Reward: Life Origin +50]
[Current Life Origin Balance: 150 points]
As Jiang Yuan presented her favorite flowers, a stunning light passed through his vision.
He saw a giant, glowing diamond hovering above You Meng’s head, which glittered for a few seconds before dispersing into golden sparkles.
"Thank you for the flowers, I love them very much." She buried her face in the flowers, took a deep breath, looked at Jiang Yuan with a gentle smile, and whispered in his ear, "We are indeed the best of friends, right? So, I have a secret to tell you!"
Jiang Yuan was waiting for this moment and nodded, "Of course, we are the best of friends."
Upon receiving the confirmation, You Meng waved her right hand, scattering dots of golden light, and then conjured up a golden card and handed it over, "Here, this is a huge secret, very important!
Actually, whether it’s human cultivators or demon cultivators, ghost cultivators, or demon cultivators, everyone has a chance of resurrection after death. But the karma involved is too great, even immortals might not be able to achieve it, but..."
She pointed towards the World Tree behind her with pride and said, "We possess the Supreme Treasure of the world—World Tree! The origin of all worlds, the cycle of life mysteries within, so using the power attached to the World Tree, you can forge an incredibly precious Resurrection Talisman. Content orıginally comes from novelfire.net
Of course, the premise is to upgrade the World Tree to Level Three, so you can find one of the main materials needed—Life Stone—on the upper layer."
"Thank you, the Resurrection Talisman holds significant value to me." Jiang Yuan accepted the golden card, and a system prompt popped up: [Resurrection Talisman: Can be forged at a Level Four Treasure Forging Workshop. Using the magical power of the World Tree, an expendable Spirit Talisman that can resurrect any eligible living being.]
[Materials Required: Silver-footed Snow Netherworm*1; Life Stone*2; Life Origin*10...]
[Usage Method: Click to use the Resurrection Talisman, select the resurrection target successfully, if the main body dies, automatically consume one Resurrection Talisman]
He had one Silver-footed Snow Netherworm; Life Origin and various auxiliary materials were also available, now the only impediment is the Life Stone.
Need to upgrade the World Tree to Level Three...
Jiang Yuan clicked the gear to view the types and quantities of materials, thinking to complete the side quest allowing the apprentice’s successful promotion to the Enlightenment Realm, then hasten the exploration of the Mysterious Cave to gather materials!
Must create the Resurrection Talisman at lightning speed!
"As the best of friends, I also hope you can always be by my side." Little elf You Meng chuckled with her mouth covered, "If you can bring me a Rainbow Gem every day from now on, when our friendship reaches a higher level, I’ll give you the schematics for a resurrection Divine Artifact as well.
Though Resurrection Talismans are useful, the world is too dangerous, having an artifact that can resurrect five times consecutively would offer more reassurance, wouldn’t it?
And upon reaching yet another level higher, I can also give you the schematics for the Invincible Talisman. Once used, it ignores all attacks within a certain time and space—isn’t it amazing?"
Jiang Yuan was instantly hooked by her offer, feeling entirely invigorated!
The resurrection Divine Artifact and Invincible Talisman, just hearing about them made his heart itch with desire. Calming down a little, he asked, "Where can I find the Rainbow Gem you like?"
"In the depths, around twenty kilometers down the Second Layer of the mine, you can randomly dig up Crystal Stones. In the Level Five Melting Workshop, the impurities can be removed, and what you harvest is the gem emitting rainbow light, which I dearly love!"
Ah, indeed need to take time to mine for Crystal Stones to process the finished product, and continue gifting daily.
After reaching one diamond in favorability, floral gifts increase only marginally, need to gift daily while mining fast to secure more schematics of Divine Artifacts that can’t be bought!
