Chapter: 5658

Lin Wan'er knit her brow tightly: "'Nine Heavenly Scripture'? I've never heard of it before."

"Really?" Lei Zhen sounded slightly disappointed: "I thought maybe this 'Nine Heavenly Scripture' might have been written by this esteemed ancestor Meng Changsheng..."

Lin Wan'er said: "My father never mentioned 'Nine Heavenly Scripture', and I've also never seen Master. All my understanding of Master comes from what my father has told me."

Lei Zhen asked curiously: "You've never met Meng Changsheng?"

"No." Lin Wan'er said. "My father first went up the mountain and returned after that. I've heard my father talk about Master's things, and my father tried to help me grasp spiritual energy. However, I really don't have the ability to do so, so I've never been able to enter the door of a martial arts master. If I could grasp spiritual energy, maybe there would be an opportunity to see Master once again and behold his grandeur."

Lei Zhen suddenly thought of something and said with a smile: "The painting portrait that Jiang Lao Tai Ta sent me is hidden in the Xiang Xi Li Weng Spring Villa. If you're interested, I'll go back and get it for you to take a look."

Lin Wan'er expressed some longing and said: "I've been wondering what Master looks like all these years. Seeing his portrait would also fulfill my long-held wish."

Lei Zhen lightly nodded and asked her again: "By the way, although you don't grasp spiritual energy, you seem to be immune to the method of erasing memories that I use. This should be due to the effects of Wan Gu Chang Qing Dan, right?"

"Yes." Lin Wan'er smiled slightly. "After taking Wan Gu Chang Qing Dan, I still couldn't grasp spiritual energy, but I gained the ability to perceive spiritual energy. I can sense my father's spiritual energy, as well as the spiritual energy on the old tea mother tree and your own spirit. And I also sensed the spiritual energy you used to hypnotize and erase memories that day."

From the moment Lin Wan'er referred to herself as Wan'er in front of Lei Zhen, he guessed that his method would definitely be ineffective against her.

But Lei Zhen didn't expect that Lin Wan'er actually had such a keen perception of spiritual energy.

He was shocked and asked: "You just said that the old tea mother tree's body also had spiritual energy. Is that true? How could a tree have spiritual energy?"

"Yes, it's true." Lin Wan'er spoke seriously. "The old tea mother tree not only has spiritual energy but is extremely powerful as well. Unfortunately, after being struck by lightning, all its spiritual energy dissipated into thin air."

But Lei Zhen was amazed, staring at the lightning-struck tree that Lin Wan'er had just pulled out from nowhere. He thought to himself: "The lightning-strike wood sent by Lin Wan'er when I first met her was indeed the heartwood of a Blood Dragon Tree struck by lightning, refined into a Thunderous Scripture that can unleash tremendous power. This lightning-stricken wood she's holding now is from the old tea mother tree, which failed to withstand the heavenly punishment and was struck by thunder. If I could refine this wood into a Thunderous Scripture, its power would likely be even greater!"

Lei Zhen's mind was filled with envy for Lin Wan'er's lightning-stricken wood, but he didn't dare ask for it yet.

After all, this thing has been treasured by Lin Wan'er for over three hundred years. Its significance to her is undoubtedly extraordinary.

However, Lei Zhen knew that he didn't need to be in too much of a hurry. Even if Lin Wan'er were to give him the lightning-stricken wood, he wouldn't have the ability to refine it anyway.

So, Lei Zhen looked at Lin Wan'er and asked a question that was very curious to him: "Miss Lin, I'm wondering how you've spent your over three hundred years."

Lin Wan'er shrugged her shoulders and laughed at herself: "I'm not skilled in spiritual energy. I'm no match for Wu Feiyun, so I've been running around from place to place for all these years."

As she spoke, Lin Wan'er also said: "But the first two hundred years were pretty good. At that time, transportation was limited and communication was not well developed, making it harder for Wu Feiyun to catch me."

She paused and looked up, reminiscing as she continued: "After I took care of my father's affairs, I was young and had no ability, so I just lived in a few remote areas in Yunnan Province for several decades. To avoid suspicion, I usually stayed in one place for five or eight years before moving to another."

"It was also during that time that I developed a fondness for Pu'er tea.";

"That time, I wandered around many places and took advantage of the opportunity to learn and experiment with making Pu'er tea, and later I lived in Yunnan Province's Tianchi area for several years, teaching local tea farmers better methods of making Pu'er tea.";

"After witnessing the failure of the Pu'er mother tree's ordeal, I felt like I had lost my spiritual anchor again, plus after decades of life on the run, I had accumulated some wealth and learned many skills and experiences, and I stayed in Tianchi area for a few years before it was time to leave Yunnan Province......";

"After leaving Yunnan Province, I didn't dare go inland, so I headed south to Jiaxing and then down to Nan Yang, where I lived in several countries, finally settling in Penang for a while."; JrNovels.com
