Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 422:

The time is approaching June, and the temperature is rising day by day.

Even if the Indigo Mountain is close to the sea, the heat cannot exceed 40 degrees, but the direct sunlight that is too hot still causes large swaths of evaporative water mist to rise from the forest.

The mist formed by the rotting and fermented fallen leaves in the past mixed with the heat from the sky, making the temperature in the forest no less than that of a sunny place, and even more similar to a sauna.

As for the Avod tribe living on the Nanling Mountains, they have their own way to avoid the heat. The various caves and mountain chambers all over the entire mountain are the main body of the mountain tribe, and they are also the residences for escaping the heat in the hot summer. The many buildings outside are just fortresses that were originally built to resist the impact of monsters.

The life of the mountain people has undergone tremendous changes compared to hundreds of years ago. The increasing population, the fields reclaimed around the foot of the mountain, the dense fruit forests, and the gradual development of animal husbandry are all telling the truth. Ancient cultures are gradually adapting to the changes of the times.

But this is only a small number of tribes - the vast majority of mountain people still follow the life of hunting and fishing as the main source of food.

A mountain hunter returned home yesterday, and now he is holding a pipe, leaning against the wall of his house and puffing. He is quite leisurely, and he can spit smoke rings into rings and squares, and even stripes like waves, which is also his rare pleasure.

But suddenly, a gust of wind blew up from the middle of the mountain, blowing away all the smoke rings, and even the birds that lived in the woods in the distance took off in panic because of the wind, screaming and fleeing towards the distance.

The hunter shivered, put away his pipe immediately, and hid in the house.

Then, he looked curiously at the elder's residence halfway up the mountain.

"Elder, calm down."

In the residence of Minister Avod, Ian smoothed the wrinkled alchemist robe on his body, and said helplessly: "The sacrificial book of the dragon god? No problem, I am going to the imperial capital, if I can , I will definitely try to help you find it.”

"I'm sorry, I was a little excited just now."

Elder Man Ya sat back on his seat and sighed heavily.

This old mountain man, when he spoke the sacrificial book of the Dragon God just now, was too excited, which caused the source quality to fluctuate and caused a strong wind... This proves that the real strength of the elder Manya should be the second ability The upper level is related to the true shape of the blood of the wind attribute.

Although Ian's fairy blood is also at the second energy level, he has also reached the second stage of the three stages of the second energy level, which is the "source quality soulization". To put it simply, it is the middle level of the second energy level, and it is a step towards the high level of "unity of body and soul".

As for Elder Manya, there is a high probability that he has completed the 'unity of body and soul', and is ready to prepare for the third energy level 'heart light'.

Only sublimators of this level can induce changes in the surrounding natural phenomena because of their own emotional fluctuations.

"The sacrificial book, named 'The Book of Silver Glory', was once a sacred object enshrined by the Avod Department, and it recorded many secrets about the Dragon God...Two hundred years ago, we mountain people and The peace talks of the empire actually amounted to a defeat, and we can keep the existing territory as an autonomous region, but as a price, many treasures were taken away by the empire.”

Elder Manya raised his head and stared at the dim light in the hall. His tone was a little sad: "That was my ancestor's mistake—after losing the Book of Silver Glory, no one appeared among the mountain people again." Those who have passed the third energy level will lose all kinds of powerful rituals.”

"Of course, two hundred years later, I also completely gave up resistance. There is no need to resist, and being part of the empire is not bad for us now... It's just strength. We still need strength to maintain our dignity. Only then can we go further.”

Ian nodded slightly, he could fully understand Elder Manya's excitement.

The mountain people's status in Nanling is quite high, mainly because they really defeated the imperial legions several times back then, but after the peace talks, they never appeared a strong man who could resist the sublimation of the imperial legion.

This is a kind of restriction and fear, just like what Viscount Grant had to do immediately after defeating the Sequoia natives was to destroy the opponent's swamp crocodile related inheritance without leaving any ground.

This is not a matter of waste or waste. If this powerhouse is not completely cut off, the resources that will be wasted in the future, and the possible death and destruction will be far greater than the current "killing the chicken to get the egg".

Only in this way can the mountain people fully integrate into the empire. Just like now, they have basically become a part of Nanling, and there are quite a few mountain people in high positions in Nauman City.

Elder Manya is now in the stage of advancing from the second energy level to the third energy level. If he succeeds, he will be the well-deserved supreme leader of the mountain people.

The reason why he joined the Dragon Worship Cult was probably also to find a way to advance, but now seeing Ian, a young and promising imperial knight, he naturally felt that he saw another kind of hope.

"But is there any more detailed information?"

Ian calmly motioned the old man to say more: "For example, where is it kept? What does it look like? What do I need to do to find it?"

"Yeah."

Elder Manya stroked his beard. After he calmed down, he told Ian in detail: "I have obtained a lot of information over the years."

"It is rumored that the Book of Silver Brilliance is located in the 'Precious Collection Room' of the Royal Library of the Empire, or the private library of Earl Phoenix. Of course, it may also be the spoils collection room of General Andes back then. These three."

"Whether it is the library or the earl's private library, the guards are not strict, and General Andis is an ancient man two hundred years ago. His personal belongings are most likely in a museum now, and the guards are not strict. That's it."

"But whether it's the library or Earl Phoenix's collection room, you need at least the authority of the royal professor to enter, or to be invited... The cultural level of our mountain people...uh..."

Elder Manya paused for a moment, and Ian took the words with high EQ: "No problem, I know a master alchemist, if it's just to confirm where it is, it's not a big deal."

"Probably so." The old man touched the bone stick, and he continued: "My people have always been in the imperial capital, trying to replace the real one with a fake one...but so far, even if it is determined where the Book of Silver Glory is, It can't be done anywhere."

"I thought that you are an alchemist, and you can still be favored by Master Gosai. Maybe there is a way in this regard, so I can only ask you."

At this point, the old man nodded solemnly to Ian: "The monster materials you want should be regarded as a deposit first. If it succeeds, I will not hesitate to pay a lot of money, and there will be a generous gift."

"No problem."

Ian nodded knowingly, this matter is not a big deal for him, anyway, he agreed first, and there is no rush for what to do.

In short, let's go to the imperial capital first. This is the destination of his travels this time. If nothing else, the rendezvous with Isengard must be in the imperial capital.

It's really not possible, use the silver chip to copy the book of Yinyao, and then give the rubbings to the elders. Anyway, with the ability of the silver chip, it is not difficult to scan a book in an instant.

Obviously, Elder Manya did not intend to complete his work in one battle. He just asked Ian to go to the imperial capital to find out where the book is, and he didn't ask Ian to steal it-it is really such a task, and the deposit is at least The monster materials of the second energy level have to be plural.

After all, with the relationship between Ian and Ellen's family, and the favor of Master Goser, at least he has the opportunity to come into contact with the Book of Silver Glory.

As Ian said, it is not difficult for a talented alchemist who is eager to learn and has a royal master alchemist behind him.

"Don't be reckless."

He even reminded Ian: "You are more important than the Book of Silver Glory. After all, without the Book of Silver Glory, I have other plans..."

"But don't let yourself be suspected because of this trivial matter. My entrustment is just to let you help to 'see' if the Book of Silver Glory is still there."

"If it is, you will inform my assistants in the imperial capital, and they will find a way by themselves."

"As for now..."

The old man got up slowly, and he motioned for Ian to follow: "I'll take you to see the monster materials you need."
