Daily Intelligence, Starting Out I Obtain the Heaven-devouring Demonic Art

7: Seal of the Human King!The old Daoist priest saw at a glance that it was a special power from this stone tablet that blocked the mudslide for Shi Nian Village, saving all the villagers.

”Master, should we move this stone tablet back to our Qingfeng Temple for contemplation?”

The Senior Brother of the Daoist temple asked.

”Foolish! This stone tablet can be said to be the guardian tablet of Shi Nian Village! If we move it away, who will protect the villagers of Shi Nian Village?”

”Moreover, even if we wanted to move it, it would probably be impossible!”

”If you want to contemplate it, then do so right here!”

The old Daoist priest looked at the stone tablet before him, a profound look in his eyes.

He could clearly sense that daring to disturb this stone tablet would invite deadly Karma.

”Yes, Master!”

The Senior Brother of the Daoist temple, hearing this, straightened his expression and nodded.

As the Senior Brother of Qingfeng Temple, it was improper for him to have harbored a hint of greed just now.

Just then, Wang Teng had arrived at Shi Nian Village. Looking at the current desolate state of Shi Nian Village, he frowned, not expecting it to be so tragic.

At the same time, Wang Teng also saw a group of Daoist priests gathered around the stone tablet.

The other young Daoist priests were all engrossed by the mysterious runes on the stone tablet and did not notice Wang Teng, the outsider.

Only the old Daoist priest noticed Wang Teng.

”This lay Buddhist, Shi Nian Village has just suffered a natural disaster. May I ask why you have come here?”

The old Daoist priest performed a Daoist Rei and asked.

”I was passing by and wanted a bowl of water, but I didn’t expect this place to have been hit by a disaster!”

Wang Teng showed a pained expression and sighed.

”So that’s it! The water source in Shi Nian Village has been destroyed by the mudslide. If you wish to drink water, why not come to my Qingfeng Temple?”

The old Daoist priest said.

”Thank you for your kindness, Daoist priest, but I must continue my journey, so I won’t be going to Qingfeng Temple!”

”I’m just curious, what are you and the others looking at, gathered around this stone tablet?”

Wang Teng showed a hint of curiosity and asked, deliberately leading the conversation to the stone tablet.

”This stone tablet is extraordinary. It once protected Shi Nian Village, and the runic markings on it seem to contain a great secret!”

”I observe that you are also a Cultivator. If you are curious, why not try to comprehend it? Perhaps you might gain some benefits!”

The old Daoist priest spoke directly to Wang Teng, without any concealment.

”Thank you, Daoist priest!”

Wang Teng hadn’t expected this old Daoist priest to be so straightforward.

Knowing that the stone tablet contained a great secret, he did not deliberately hide it. This kind of mindset and broad-mindedness was not something ordinary people could possess.

Wang Teng admitted that he himself could not do it.

Soon, Wang Teng also approached the stone tablet.

The runic markings on this stone tablet, at a glance, were densely packed, numbering in the hundreds.

And it was these hundreds of densely packed mysterious runes that concealed a top-tier offensive technique, the Human King Seal.

It was impossible for ordinary Cultivators to comprehend the Human King Seal from these hundreds of runic markings.

However, Wang Teng had already mastered the arrangement rules of these runic markings.

After half an hour, Wang Teng had already recorded and arranged these hundreds of densely packed runes in his mind.

Boom...!

Wang Teng felt a roar in his mind, and the three majestic characters of Human King Seal immediately manifested in his consciousness.

At the same time, he also learned the origin of this stone tablet.

This stone tablet was left by the Human King from thousands of years ago. At that time, the Human King had offended too many people, and among his descendants, no one sufficiently brilliant had appeared.

Therefore, to prevent his descendants from being targeted after his death, the Human King directly severed all Karma with them.

From then on, the once glorious Human King Family gradually declined.

Most importantly, only descendants of the Human King could comprehend the Human King Seal.

These hundreds of densely packed runic markings were like a password; only by entering it correctly could one comprehend the Human King Seal.

If a sufficiently brilliant person appeared among the Human King’s descendants, based on ancestral clues and some secrets, they would be able to comprehend the Human King Seal.

But for other Cultivators, it was impossible.

Even some exceptionally talented individuals could not hope to comprehend it.

If Wang Teng had not already known the arrangement order of the runes in advance, he would not have been able to comprehend the Human King Seal.

”So... this Shi Nian Village is actually a descendant of the Human King!”

”Senior Human King, since I, Wang Teng, have obtained your Human King Seal, I will not treat your descendants unfairly!”

Wang Teng looked at the disaster-stricken Shi Nian Village, directly found the village chief, and asked him to gather all the villagers.

The villagers of Shi Nian Village now had eyes filled with despair.

Due to the mudslide, their fields and water sources were destroyed, and they could not hunt in the mountains. Their livelihoods were completely cut off, and they saw no hope for the future.

”Shi Nian Village is currently suffering from a disaster, and I am deeply saddened by it. However, life must go on, and I hope everyone can regain their spirits!”

”I have some gold, silver, and Spirit Stones, which I will distribute to every villager. Please line up to receive them!”

Wang Teng spoke directly, without any unnecessary words.

Spirit Stones were the currency among Cultivators.

Gold and silver were the currency for transactions among ordinary people.

Among the villagers of Shi Nian Village, there were ordinary people and also some low-Realm Cultivators.

Wang Teng directly handed over all the remaining gold, silver, and Spirit Stones he had to these villagers.

Although the value of this gold, silver, and Spirit Stones was far less than the Human King Seal, it was all that Wang Teng could offer.

If he were still the Young Master of the Wang Family, this gold, silver, and Spirit Stones would not even be a drop in the ocean.

But after he was expelled from his Family, this was his entire possession.

When the villagers of Shi Nian Village received Wang Teng’s gold, silver, and Spirit Stones, their originally despairing eyes immediately showed a glimmer of hope.

They all knelt down to thank Wang Teng, some even crying with emotion.

They had thought they were at a dead end, but Wang Teng appeared, letting all the villagers know that there is always a way out.

”Everyone, please get up, there’s no need for this!”

Wang Teng said repeatedly.

”Thank you, lay Buddhist, for your generous philanthropy! There are not many warm-hearted people like you left!”

The old Daoist priest watched Wang Teng’s actions and bowed deeply to him.

The incense offerings at Qingfeng Temple were currently only average. Not only did they have to cover the temple’s expenses, but occasionally, when they encountered truly struggling people, Qingfeng Temple would also help.

Therefore, Qingfeng Temple was extremely impoverished and simply could not, like Wang Teng, offer so much gold, silver, and Spirit Stones to help Shi Nian Village.

”Daoist priest, you are too kind!”

Wang Teng quickly helped the old Daoist priest up.

Afterward, Wang Teng conversed with the old Daoist priest and the villagers for some time, then bid farewell and left Shi Nian Village.

The villagers wept with joy, their gazes filled with gratitude as they watched Wang Teng depart.

The old Daoist priest, however, looked at Wang Teng’s departing back with a thoughtful and profound expression.

Originally, during Wang Teng’s contemplation of the stone tablet, his Qi suddenly changed, which the old Daoist priest clearly perceived. He then speculated whether Wang Teng had comprehended something from the stone tablet.

Subsequently, Wang Teng distributed all his gold, silver, and Spirit Stones to the entire Shi Nian Village, which made the old Daoist priest even more certain of this.

However, Daoism emphasizes following destiny. Whatever Wang Teng comprehended from the stone tablet, that was his Opportunity.

If the stone tablet and Shi Nian Village were related, and Wang Teng comprehended something, then a Karma relationship was formed.

Now, Wang Teng distributed all his gold, silver, and Spirit Stones to the entire Shi Nian Village, which settled the Karma.

”Immeasurable Heavenly Venerate!”

The old Daoist priest murmured.

Wang Teng not only gained an Opportunity from the stone tablet, but his future achievements would also be limitless...
