Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 837 - 330: Heart Difficulty Lamp, One of the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts

Chapter 837: Chapter 330: Heart Difficulty Lamp, One of the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts

Yun Sheng originally wanted to figure out the origin of these Magic Arrays to see if she could restore them to their original form.

Unexpectedly, she discovered a finger-sized Magic Crystal in the core regions of several Magic Arrays.

The crystals were clearly recently buried, with magic power still abundant.

Yun Sheng had a good memory. Although she had seen such crystals only once, she remembered them vividly.

When she was in the Sky Wing Cloud Sea, the Third Main Summoner used this type of Heart Crystal to control Hu Jiusheng.

"They’re just a few broken stones. If you like, once we return, I, the Crown Prince, will gift you hundreds, thousands of them," Dugu Xiu saw Yun Sheng’s face tense up with her eyes shining and came closer.

"If you don’t understand, don’t pretend to. These aren’t ordinary Magic Crystals. They’re Heart Crystals—an inch of Heart Crystal, an inch of light. Such Heart Crystals can only be manufactured by one of the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts, the Heart Difficulty Lamp," Yun Sheng glared at him.

That glance, mixed with anger and annoyance, fell in Dugu Xiu’s eyes, full of infinite charm. Dugu Xiu delighted, as if he gained benefits from being scolded.

The name of the Heart Difficulty Lamp was something Dugu Xiu had heard of.

Legend has it that the Heart Difficulty Lamp possesses mysterious powers, capable of controlling divine senses, manipulating living people and Demon Beasts like puppets.

It is the most mysterious among the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts.

Five hundred years ago, the creation of Heart Crystals had been wholly forbidden. Yet the Heart Crystals suddenly appeared in the breeding pen of Taiyuan Castle—there must be something fishy here.

The Heart Crystal in Yun Sheng’s hand still contained a surge of abundant magic power.

It was clear that these Heart Crystals had not long been made.

The ability to mass-produce Heart Crystals indicated that whoever buried these Crystals in the Magic Arrays must possess the Heart Difficulty Lamp.

"Ha, are these really Heart Crystals? Then this trip was truly worthwhile, with both the War God Spear and the Heart Difficulty Lamp appearing," Dugu Xiu grew interested.

He had long heard of the Heart Difficulty Lamp being lost for years.

In the later continent, no one knew the whereabouts of the Heart Lamp.

Unexpectedly, news of the Heart Lamp appeared in Taiyuan Castle five hundred years ago.

"Don’t celebrate too soon. The War God Spear is with the Taiyuan Prince, and if nothing goes wrong, the Heart Difficulty Lamp is in the hands of the Summoning Court. Right now, you and I are on our own; do you think just you and I can contend with Taiyuan City and the Summoning Court?" Yun Sheng was not so optimistic.

If her guess was correct, and the Heart Difficulty Lamp truly was in the Summoning Court’s hands, saving Taiyuan City from this disaster would undoubtedly become much harder.

"Whether we can contend or not, we’ll only know after trying. Don’t worry, I, the Crown Prince, will ensure you safely return to five hundred years later," Dugu Xiu wouldn’t admit it, but he did feel a bit of regret.

No matter if he admitted it or not, their winning odds would be greater with Ye Beiming as an ally.

For a moment of indulgence, losing such a significant support like Ye Beiming was indeed a bit of a loss.

Yun Sheng put away the Heart Crystal. Earlier, the guard who went to prepare medicine returned with a Maid.

"Both of you, I’ll trouble you with the breeding pen’s matters. The City Lord ordered that you can stay at the City Lord Mansion for the next few days; I’ve arranged two living quarters for you," said the Maid, who was the Head Maid of the City Lord Mansion.

After setting everything up, she reminded both Yun Sheng and Dugu Xiu that they could wander around the Demon Beast Corridor and Taiyuan Flower Garden but were strictly forbidden from entering the deepest part of the castle, the City Lord’s Hall.

The sky gradually darkened.

Beside Sea and Sky, a silhouette crawled up the steep cliff face like a gecko, ascending the hundreds of feet high cliff.

Ye Beiming set aside Qiu Niang.

On the mountain path, the figures of the Summoning Court’s people were long gone.

He had already anticipated that the people from the Summoning Court wouldn’t let things rest and would kill to silence.

So he had prepared early when passing Sea and Sky.

When Qiu Niang was pushed off the cliff, he was already prepared, his Fighting Spirit Wings ready.

To trick those Summoners into thinking they had perished below the cliff, Ye Beiming remained down until he was sure everyone had left, then flew up.

Qiu Niang, having been scared, fainted from shock.

Ye Beiming returned to where several Summoners earlier drew the Magic Array, checking the Magic Arrays.

After a moment, Qiu Niang woke up.

"Brother Ye, what happened?" Qiu Niang vaguely remembered only that someone had forcefully pushed her, causing her to fall off a cliff.

Recalling that scene, Qiu Niang’s face turned pale, and she trembled uncontrollably like a sieve.

Did those Summoning Court people want to kill her?

"Qiu Niang, it’s over now, let’s return to the village first," Ye Beiming had already formed a plan in his mind.

He and Qiu Niang returned to the Fishing Village under the cover of darkness.

But upon reaching the Fishing Village, Qiu Niang collapsed to the ground.

The Fishing Village was already in ruins, with the corpses of villagers scattered everywhere.

The houses in the Fishing Village had all been burned to ashes.

"Why, why do this," Qiu Niang despaired, lightly sobbing.

A fishing boat was docking on the shoreline.

A few fisherfolk disembarked, also frightened by the scene in the Fishing Village.

Among them, a man in his forties saw Qiu Niang and hurried over.

"Qiu Niang, what happened here?" This was the village chief of the Fishing Village.

"Dad, the village... the village was destroyed by those Summoners from the Summoning Court, all the people in the village are dead, and your daughter was almost killed," Qiu Niang cried, breathless, recounting the day’s events to the village chief and others.

"Those beasts," the village chief was furious, but helpless.

They didn’t dare to inform the Taiyuan City Lord, either.

The Summoning Court’s power was so great that even the Taiyuan City Lord couldn’t oppose them back in the day.

"Do you want revenge," Ye Beiming, filled with regret, spoke; he should have guessed that the Summoning Court would target the Fishing Village.

So many innocent lives were lost, unfortunately.

"What’s the use of crying, it’s better to find a way to make those Summoners pay with their blood," Ye Beiming withdrew his sympathetic gaze.

He didn’t sympathize with the weak.

"You? Who are you, and why do you want to help us?" The village chief saw a stranger and pulled Qiu Niang back vigilantly.

"Who I am doesn’t matter. What matters is I can help you get revenge. To deal with the Summoning Court, prepare these first," Ye Beiming wrote a few words in the village chief’s palm.

The village chief looked at the writing in his hand, hesitant.

He thought for a moment, but ultimately, the hatred toward the Summoning Court prevailed in his heart.

"Alright, brother. We’ll prepare right away. Tomorrow morning, we’ll follow you up the mountain," the village chief decided, leading a dozen fishermen to prepare the items Ye Beiming requested.

Qiu Niang silently wiped her tears on the side. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Ye Beiming stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at Taiyuan Mountain in the darkness.

Atop Taiyuan Mountain, the white Taiyuan Castle still emitted an enchanting glow under the cover of night.

"Yun Sheng, wait for me. I will find you soon," Ye Beiming silently vowed in his heart.
