Chapter 1259 1259: Ancient Tome

"Almost forgot about those two, they're in cahoots."

The armored man who previously misunderstood Yun Mengyao shouted sternly.

Yun Mengyao rolled her eyes, "Are you crazy? Which eye of yours saw that we're together? You've caught the person, now stop blocking my way, get lost as far away as you can."

The armored men gave strange smiles.

"Such a pretty lady, young but with quite a temper, a rose with thorns too."

Yun Mengyao couldn't tolerate such teasing, especially with someone like Qin Yi by her side, she felt fearless. She directly tossed the bone she had picked clean at the armored man.

To an ordinary person, the thrown bone wouldn't be much, but Yun Mengyao, being a Nascent Soul stage expert, could throw a small piece of bone that was more terrifying than a bullet, coupled with a piercing sound that alone revealed its dreadfulness.

Upon seeing this, the armored man's face changed drastically, and he swung his long sword with Sword Qi.

Yet it was too late, he underestimated the bone's speed. As he lifted his sword, the bone smashed into his nasal bone, causing him to scream aloud, his nose bone shattering, and his whole body flung backward from the force.

The young armored man couldn't even care for his sword, holding his face with both hands, screaming miserably, rolling on the ground; a shattered nose bone was more pain than an average person could bear.

This move shocked everyone present.

The woman dressed as a man also widened her eyes. She noticed Qin Yi had no power fluctuations, so she chose to hold Qin Yi hostage. Now, seeing how terrifying the woman was, Qin Yi certainly wasn't ordinary; it seemed she really misjudged.

Several young armored men had dark eyes and their faces turned solemn.

The leading armored youth angrily scolded, "How dare you injure someone from the Tianming Sect?"

Yun Mengyao didn't care about what Tianming Sect was; in her view, Tianming Sect was far less important than the pig trotter in front of her. She stood up, snatched the thing in Qin Yi's hand, and muttered, "I'll see what you all are fussing about."

Qin Yi didn't stop her; he too wanted to know what exactly was wrapped in the oil paper.

Yun Mengyao tore off the outer oil paper, revealing a yellowish ancient book inside.

The cover had three large characters, which seemed to be the world's text that he didn't recognize. But Yun Mengyao read it directly: "Engraving Skill. What in the world is this?"

Yun Mengyao said, flipping through the book, all filled with various Star and Moon Symbols, she couldn't understand it at all. Casually, like throwing trash, she tossed the book on the table, "What's this thing, looks like ghost scribbles. You bother me while eating for this? Truly unforgivable."

"You..." The leading armored man was full of anger, apprehension mixed with fear. "How dare you look at the sacred object of the Tianming Sect?"

The captured woman also looked at Yun Mengyao with shock as she casually discarded the ancient book on the table.

Qin Yi picked up the ancient book and started reading. He was shocked upon looking at it, though he didn't know what it was, strangely he could understand it. It was an ancient divine power, even older than Cultivation Techniques he obtained from the Eye of Righteous and Evil.

This ancient book recorded supreme divine skills.

Engraving Skill.

Qin Yi's eyes flashed slightly; during the woman's fight when she was captured, peculiar Star and Moon Symbols appeared on her palm, which seemed related to Engraving Skill.

The leading armored man stepped forward, pointing his sharp sword at Qin Yi, and yelled, "Give it to me."

Qin Yi read seriously, flipping through one page after another. He guessed, perhaps due to the Eye of Righteous and Evil, he could indeed understand the Star and Moon Symbols recorded in the ancient book, and he read each page attentively.

Yun Mengyao took a bite of food, chewed, and spoke unclearly, "I'm telling you, best not to provoke him, especially when he's silent, or you'll have bad luck."

"Courting death." The armored man didn't believe her, his sword like a poison snake sprang forward, stabbing at Qin Yi's neck.

The sword stabbed directly at Qin Yi's neck, but shockingly, the sharp sword didn't pierce him, not even grazing his skin.

The leading armored man was shocked, as if seeing a ghost.

Everyone present was stunned, disbelief written all over their faces.

Never mind the leading armored man's Cultivation, even in the Body Integration Realm Great Perfection, a sword wouldn't hurt Qin Yi. After consuming Heavenly Thunder Fruit, his Cultivation broke through two layers, and his physical body became stronger.

Qin Yi turned his head, looked at the leading armored man, and said indifferently, "Get lost!"

The voice wasn't loud, but the armored man felt as if struck by lightning, like Thunder Shock exploded in his brain, his internal organs trembled, he spewed blood, and flew horizontally, smashing a table open.

The whole place feared!

Just one word inflicted serious injury.

The other armored men looked fearful.

As Qin Yi flipped through the ancient book in his hand, the more he read, the more astonished he became; what it recorded was too miraculous. Not an ordinary Cultivation Technique, nor Martial Arts, but a kind of divine skill he never encountered before.

Yun Mengyao was full of schadenfreude, watching the armored youth struggling to stand after being struck by Qin Yi, her laughter grew louder, "Weakling, I told you not to provoke him, yet you wouldn't listen."

Qin Yi glanced at the captured woman, saying indifferently, "Let her go, you may then leave."

However, Qin Yi's words had no effect. Several armored men raised their swords to the woman's neck, she was their lifeline, how could they let her go?

Qin Yi frowned slightly, waved his hand gently.

"Boom!"

The air twisted suddenly, seven or eight armored men were hit by a massive hammer-like force, screaming as they crashed through windows, plummeting straight from the sixth floor.

The captured woman was shocked, feeling no force, unharmed. What kind of Divine Ghost Techniques was this?

But seeing Qin Yi quickly flipping through the book, she dashed over and reached to snatch the book from Qin Yi's hand.

Yun Mengyao responded swiftly, using her chopsticks to block the woman's hand, scornfully saying, "You really don't appreciate kindness, he just saved you."

The woman remained silent, reaching out again to grab the book from Qin Yi.

Yun Mengyao snorted coldly, pinching the woman's wrist with chopsticks, while Qi surged around the woman, her arm couldn't budge in the slightest.

"Weakling, you're too feeble," Yun Mengyao scoffed.

At this point, Qin Yi had flipped to the last page, the ancient book wasn't thick, he had finished it.

Closing the book, he looked at the woman, "Is this yours?"
