In the imperial capital of Great Wei, Shen Lin soaked in the bath, stretching comfortably.

After returning from the extreme northern ice plains, Ji Zhanxie, along with Gao Yichen, didn't even give him time to heal before rushing off to find Zhang Xiang.

As for Shen Lin, he was arranged to return home to rest.

"Rest well; in the coming period, we may have many things arranged for you."

The ease on Shen Lin's face faded a bit when he thought of Ji Zhanxie's words at their parting.

The so-called arranged matters were nothing more than deciphering the many ancient books sealed away by Great Wei.

Like the "Shaguo's Wandering Notes" that Yan Zehong had previously discovered in the Demon Suppression Division, Great Wei had quite a few such texts recorded with the power of Dao principles.

In the past, even if they knew how to decipher these things, they could only seal them away because their eyes were sealed by the Six-Point Hidden Dao Formation.

But now, with Shen Lin's extraordinary talent and unsealed eyes, they naturally wanted him to translate these things as soon as possible.

To find some way to deal with the Candle Dragon from them.

Shen Lin had no objections to this.

Finding a way to leave here sooner was also a good thing for him.

That Netherworld Race existence, suspected to be at the Venerable Realm, might come looking for him at any time.

When that time came, he, who possessed the Burning Sea Flame, would inevitably be the first target.

Moreover, those ancient books might even contain some cultivation methods and martial arts worth learning.

The current Shen Lin had the Burning Heaven Boiling Sea Art for cultivation and the Qiankun Saber for martial arts.

He really didn't think much of Great Wei's Heavenly Mystery cultivation methods and martial arts.

Only those with special effects were worth using his demonic beast lifespan to deduce.

And the texts recorded with the power of Dao principles were likely from the outside world.

If they recorded cultivation methods and martial arts, their quality would definitely be much higher than those in Great Wei.

It was still worth learning.

While pondering, Shen Lin flipped his hand, and dozens of beast skin scrolls floated in front of him, supported by spiritual power.

These were all the diaries he had brought back from that Shaguo Wang.

Originally, he had just wanted to thoroughly criticize these frivolous records.

But just after returning home, he suddenly noticed something was wrong while criticizing them.

Controlling these scrolls with spiritual power, he opened them one by one, stroking his chin and constantly adjusting their positions.

Gradually, the words recorded on these beast skin scrolls, like pieces of a puzzle, were pieced together into a new image.

After seeing the content recorded on it, Shen Lin couldn't help but smile.

Shaguo Wang was quite skillful.

He had actually left his inheritance behind in these imperial uncle diaries.

【Congratulations, you have learned the formation "Spirit Seeking and Gold Searching Formation (Elementary Chapter)". Do you want to expend lifespan to deduce it?】

The system prompt sounded in his mind, and Shen Lin waved his hand, taking back these beast skin scrolls.

Then he closed his eyes and began to deduce.

Formation?

A bit interesting.

According to the records of the Tai Xuan Heavenly Tablet, there were countless races in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and the paths of cultivation were naturally different.

Among them, some races had invented a method to use their own spiritual power to trigger the Dao principles between heaven and earth.

Formations were not limited to attacking enemies.

Whether used to assist in cultivation or protect residences, they had unique uses.

Because formations had many uses, they quickly spread to various places.

Now, almost all races in the entire Chaos Sea had their own unique formation techniques.

Shen Lin remembered that there were several sects in Great Wei that specialized in this path.

It was said that their founding patriarch had learned formation techniques from the demon race.

And what Shen Lin was now deducing was the signature method of the Treasure Seeking Rat race to which Shaguo Wang belonged.

Treasure Seeking Rats were best at finding treasures, and in this process, they would naturally encounter many uninhabited caves.

Although those ownerless caves might not have been entered or exited for thousands of years, their internal formations could continue to operate.

If one didn't know anything about formations, one wouldn't be able to enter them to find treasures.

Therefore, the formation level of the Treasure Seeking Rat race was considered quite good in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Let's spend a thousand years to test the waters first.

The comprehension of formations didn't require high external materials such as spiritual power.

It only had some requirements for the cultivator's talent.

Shen Lin felt that with his intelligence, having understood advanced mathematics in his previous life, was he still afraid of this small formation?

A thousand years was enough to master everything!

Shen Lin's thought fell, and in his mind, the system slowly unfolded and began to deduce.

【In the first year, you began to study the Spirit Seeking and Gold Searching Formation, gaining a lot.】

【In the one thousandth year, you are still studying the Spirit Seeking and Gold Searching Formation, and seem to have found some clues.】

【Deduction complete!】

Shen Lin opened his eyes and silently looked around.

Then, he continued to deduce.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes.

In his vision, the flow of Dao principles, which originally looked chaotic and disorderly, now looked much more pleasing.

Shen Lin slowly raised his hand and gently pressed a few nodes in the flow of Dao principles using spiritual power.

Whoosh!

The next moment, the water in the bath in front of him surged, all being sucked into a square transparent frame that suddenly appeared in the air, constantly being compressed.

Finally, it formed a drop of deep blue water ball.

Water Condensation Formation, which can collect the surrounding flowing water.

It wasn't a powerful formation. Most of the time, it was a formation carved on gourds and other containers by some weak cultivators for convenience when carrying drinking water.

But no matter what, it was still a formation!

Being able to cast it casually already showed that Shen Lin had mastered the way to use formations.

He was indeed a genius!

In just the time it takes to breathe, he had already mastered the principles of formation operation.

Satisfied, Shen Lin snapped his fingers, and the water ball in front of him scattered with a bang, refilling the bath.

Knock knock knock!

After the knock, the butler's voice came.

"Young Master, someone is here to see you; it's a colleague from your Demon Suppression Division."

Colleague?

Hadn't Ji Zhanxie just separated from him?

And said to let him rest for a while.

Why had he sent someone over so soon?

"Take them to the study and have them wait for me!"

While pondering, Shen Lin replied, got up, and put on his clothes.

When he walked to the study, he found that the visitor was an acquaintance.

Yun Li was bored, looking here and there in his study.

Hearing the movement of him walking over, he immediately turned around.

He said with a gloating expression, "The commander told me to send these things to you as quickly as possible."

As he spoke, he took out a pile of items from his Sumeru ring.

There were beast skin scrolls, bamboo slips, and books made of special paper.

There was even a stone tablet half a zhang long.

They instantly filled Shen Lin's study.

"The commander said to have you translate these first. He is still continuing to search for other related items. Zhang Xiang has also issued an order to have those aristocratic families and sects hand in this type of thing."

Seeing Shen Lin's mouth slightly open, staring blankly at these things, he walked over with a smile and patted him on the shoulder.

"Good luck!"

After speaking, he was about to leave.

But at this moment, Shen Lin suddenly turned around and grabbed him.

"Where are you going?"

Yun Li scratched his head, puzzled, "Going home. My mission is complete..."

"No, not yet!"

Shen Lin shook his head and pointed to those things, saying, "After I finish translating, someone needs to record the content on paper and then send it to the commander."

"No one can say what these things are written about. Maybe there will be some secrets that outsiders can't know."

"They sent you here because you also knew some of my secrets during the extreme northern ice plains, so you can be trusted."

"So..."

Shen Lin looked at Yun Li meaningfully and smiled, "Let's work hard together!"

"Fuck!!!"

Only then did Yun Li come to his senses and suddenly remembered why Ji Zhanxie's expression was so serious when he arranged the task for him before.

He also said that it was important and to take it seriously.

He was still thinking, how serious did delivering something need to be...

Unexpectedly, he also had a share in these troubles!
