Urban Invincible Overlord

Tong Yunshu said, "What is it?"

Yang Fei had already sprinted away.

Although Tong Yunshu was curious, she didn't think much of it. With the current charm talisman enhancing her, she wrote rapidly.

This time, she didn't continue writing that strange rune from the Ghost Ship, but instead wrote more than ten runes she already knew well.

Thirteen runes used only the time of a breath; it was simply rapid.

Tong Yunshu was startled herself.

What was going on?

Though she prided herself as a Rune Tao genius, and was very familiar with those thirteen runes she had just written, usually able to write them casually, achieving such speed and writing thirteen runes in a single breath was just impossible.

Had her day-long writing of that strange rune on the ship unexpectedly highly enhanced her in Rune Tao, and her talent had grown stronger?

Tong Yunshu secretly rejoiced, overwhelmed with excitement.

But soon, she found that the charm talisman around her had diminished quite a bit.

She pondered for a moment, then wrote out a few more runes in one go.

This time, only eight familiar runes were written in the time of a breath.

The speed had obviously slowed down a lot.

And after writing these eight runes, she also noticed the power of the charm talisman completely dissipated.

Why did this happen?

Tong Yunshu thought for a bit, and suddenly, her heart stirred.

Might it be the effect of the new rune on that ship?

As soon as she thought of that rune, the charm talisman around her gradually increased.

"Indeed."

Tong Yunshu joyfully muttered to herself, "So, this strange rune has a powerful auxiliary effect that can enhance charm talisman?"

She tried hard to remember that strange rune and then attempted to write it again.

She failed again.

But she discovered that when she concentrated on writing this rune, the charm talisman around her became more intense, which immensely benefited her comprehension and memory in Rune Tao.

She could feel that enveloped by this charm talisman power, she could now easily recite the pronunciation of the two Instant Teleportation runes, and the effect was definitely more than twice as good as before.

Yet, this was something she dared not try recklessly; the spatial barrier strength received during Instant Teleportation was too terrifying, and she feared that she couldn't withstand it when the effect improved.

Outside, came the sound of the wind, Yang Fei returned.

He closed the door and showed Tong Yunshu the Six Changes Wood Box, saying, "Look at this."

Tong Yunshu glanced over and saw ancient runes surprisingly engraved on the old Wooden Box.

With one look, she could tell that these runes were the most profound and enigmatic texts in Rune Tao, but just like the runes she saw on the ship before, though each character was so clearly in her sight, it was difficult to remember them.

"Yang Fei, where did this... come from?" Tong Yunshu exclaimed.

Yang Fei said, "To be precise, it was obtained from the Zhuge family."

Tong Yunshu's expression changed, "The very Zhuge family where my teacher belongs?"

Yang Fei nodded, "Correct. Initially, Duanmu Wugou cooperated with me to numb me and helped me to get this Six Changes Wood Box. Now it seems, your teacher intentionally let it fall into my hands, wanting me to help decipher the Rune Formation on it."

Tong Yunshu chuckled, then said, "Strange, the Six Rune Symbols on here weren't taught by my teacher, nor by you either."

Yang Fei smiled bitterly, "I forgot. And frankly, though I saw these runes and feel familiar with their appearance, once I move my gaze, I forget their form. These Ancient Runes are very hard to remember. Your teacher probably couldn't remember either, so we both can't teach you these runes."

"Ancient Runes?" Tong Yunshu's heart trembled, feeling a mysterious and distant ancient aura hitting her.

Like some Rune Tao power stretching through thousands or even more years of time, crossing space to arrive before her eyes, causing an oppressive and awe-striking feeling deep in her soul.

Her gaze fell upon those vigorous and ancient runes, reaching out gently as though she was touching Rune Tao powers spanning thousands, tens of thousands, or even more years.

Yang Fei became inwardly excited seeing her expression.

This wife surely could continuously bring him surprises.

Her talent in Rune Tao was truly extraordinary beyond comparison.

After a while, Yang Fei saw Tong Yunshu still immersed in such sensations, and couldn't help but say, "Yun Shu, do you think these Six Rune Symbols are similar to the ones on that ship?"

Tong Yunshu slowly shook her head, "They are very similar, but... these few scripts seem more ancient and seem to contain even stronger Rune Tao power."

Yang Fei startled, hurriedly asked, "Can you remember them and write them down?"

Tong Yunshu resolutely shook her head, "No, at least not now. I... I feel utterly insignificant before these runes."

Yang Fei was shocked, hurriedly grabbed her hand and said, "No, you are the person with the most extraordinary Rune Tao talent I've ever seen, you surely can do it, just don't have any psychological pressure, otherwise it would lead to distraction."

Upon hearing Yang Fei's reminder, Tong Yunshu's heart shivered, becoming notably sober.

She was shocked to find her back already drenched in cold sweat.

Her thoughts had just been pulled into ancient times, overwhelmed by powerful Rune Tao forces to the point of near collapse. TheM|V|LE&MPYRteamworkedhardonthischapter.

Faced with such vast knowledge and power of Rune Tao, she felt so insignificant, helpless, and spawned a deep sense of despair.

Fortunately, Yang Fei's timely reminder helped her escape from that illusory suffocating feeling in time.

She took a deep breath, gratefully glanced at Yang Fei, saying, "If not for your warning, I almost got distracted just now."

Yang Fei also felt fearful, put the Six Changes Wood Box behind him and said, "It's okay now, don't rush, take your time, with your talent, I believe you will soon comprehend these runes."

"Hmm, I also feel that I'm quite competent in this field." Tong Yunshu chuckled, feeling much more cheerful.

Yang Fei laughed heartily, giving her a kiss on her smooth, fair face, "Let's not think too much for now, go have dinner! I noticed you stayed in the room all day without going out."

Tong Yunshu said, "I'm not hungry. Give me that Wooden Box again, I feel these Six Rune Symbols each contain powerful strength, once comprehended, they will surely enhance my Rune Tao prowess."

Yang Fei worriedly said, "Don't look at it for now, I'm afraid you'll get enthralled again."

Tong Yunshu smiled gently, shook her head, "Won't happen, with you beside me, how could anything happen."

Yang Fei reckoned the same, so stopped hiding it, taking out the Six Changes Wood Box again from behind.

Tong Yunshu took the Wooden Box and carefully discerned the runes on it for a long time. Suddenly, curious, she said, "These runes are engraved to protect what's inside, right? The Wooden Box should be locked, how was it opened initially?"

Yang Fei blushed, said, "I tried many times, attempting to arrange and combine them to figure it out. Of course, it also needed my certain understanding of these Ancient Runes, otherwise why couldn't Zhuge Cang open it while he held it for so many years?"

Tong Yunshu giggled, but didn't expose him.

After all, the Wooden Box was indeed opened by Yang Fei.

"Hmm, you are the best. Now show me how you opened this Wooden Box," Tong Yunshu said with a smile.

Yang Fei cleared his throat, focusing on the Six Rune Symbols, then pointed at them one by one. The runes seemed to come alive, being steered by his formidable spiritual power, moved to a special position.

As a rune moved to this location, a powerful Divine Power unexpectedly emanated from the Wooden Box.

Tong Yunshu's eyes lit up, seemingly comprehending something, but striving to capture it — yet found she fell short, unable to remember anything.
