Chapter 870

Birthmark

Chen Ze carefully picked up the "Source Spirit Sacred Artifact".

I felt a powerful energy emanating from the bracelet, as if I could connect with the universe.

"Is this the essence of the Lingyuan Sect's power?" he asked excitedly.

Tian Siyao leaned closer to examine the runes and carvings on the bracelet.

She said, "These runes seem to possess ancient and mysterious powers; we must study them carefully."

Qin Miyue gazed at the bracelet and said softly:
“This ‘Source Spirit Sacred Artifact’ must be a power inheritance item.”

"Through it, we may be able to grasp deeper levels of spells and magic."

The three exchanged a glance, their eyes sparkling with excitement and curiosity.

They understood that the power contained in the "Source Spirit Artifact" would not only become a powerful tool for them to overcome various dangers.

It also suggests that a wider and more mysterious realm awaits their exploration and discovery.

In the ancient ruins, Tian Siyao, Qin Miyue, and Chen Ze accidentally triggered a long-hidden barrier.

They continued their investigation, hoping to find more clues about the transmission of power.

When they arrived at a clear stream outside the village called "Biquan" (碧泉).

I encountered a mysterious blind old man—Mr. Blindfold.

Qin Miyue and Chen Ze watched the interaction between Tian Siyao and the blindfolded man and couldn't help but feel curious.

Qin Miyue suddenly asked the blindfolded man, "How did you know my friend had the ability to lift the curse?"

The blindfolded man smiled slightly and answered softly:
"Because I have also been cursed, and Miss Tian Siyao's insight and wisdom are exactly what I need."

After hearing this, Chen Ze couldn't help but ask, "What is the secret to your longevity, which is unmatched by normal people?"

The blindfolded man remained silent for a moment, then revealed a bitter smile:
“I’ve intentionally kept this secret for many years, but now I don’t have much time left.”

"In fact, a long time ago, I wandered into a place full of danger and confusion."

There, I found an ancient book about lifting curses and prolonging life.

"By learning the ancient magic and spells recorded in the book, I was able to break my own curse and live a longer life."

Tian Siyao asked, "So, what's the problem you're facing right now? Can we help you?"

Did her voice reveal a hint of sympathy and concern?

The blindfolded man gently shook his head and sighed, saying:
“My time is almost up, but my curse has not been truly lifted.”

"I cannot see, nor can I move freely."

The three exchanged glances and tacitly decided to help the mysterious blindfolded man.

"I don't want to leave this curse to the next unfortunate person."

Tian Siyao held his hand tightly and said gently, "Don't worry, we will do our best to lift your curse."

"Please tell us how we can help you."

The blindfolded man nodded and handed Tian Siyao an old book with trust.

He said, "This book contains the knowledge and methods I have accumulated over the years regarding the removal of curses."

“Please study them carefully and seek out those rare treasures that can help you achieve your goals.”

Qin Miyue took the book, carefully browsed its contents, and then remarked with emotion:

"These methods and techniques are extremely ancient and mysterious, and we need to study and understand them carefully."

As Chen Ze watched the blindfolded man tightly holding Tian Siyao's hand, a firm resolve welled up in his heart.

He said, "We will not let you down."

"No matter how difficult or dangerous it is, we will complete the mission without fear."

Tian Siyao, Qin Miyue, and Chen Ze worked together to escort the blindfolded man back to his residence and reassured him to wait for good news. In the days that followed, the three devoted themselves entirely to studying and researching this ancient book.

They found many spells and incantations in the book about breaking curses and prolonging life.

The three ventured deep into the ruins in search of rare treasures that could help them achieve their goal.

Beside a huge stone pillar, they discovered a strangely shaped gem that emitted a dazzling light.

As Tian Siyao carefully picked up the gemstone.

Suddenly, a powerful and dangerous energy surged from all around the ruins.

Qin Miyue and Chen Ze immediately became alert and surrounded Tian Siyao closely.

A fierce battle ensued, with them cooperating seamlessly.

Using their respective skills and strength, they fiercely fought against the attackers.

After a fierce battle, the three successfully repelled the attackers and put the gems into their bags.

Tian Siyao gripped the sword hilt, feeling the chilling killing intent emanating from the sword.

This is just the first step in their victory.

There is still a long way to go before the curse is lifted and the blindfolded man regains his sight.

Tian Siyao, Qin Miyue, and Chen Ze continued their journey down the unknown road.

My heart is filled with the desire to explore and discover the mysterious realms of the future.

The power they believe in will be gradually revealed during this journey.

Two days later they returned to the old man's side.

Recalling the previous events regarding the curse.

The old man's words were like a knife, stabbing Tian Siyao's heart.

Although she deeply sympathized with the blindfolded man's suffering and despair, she still found it difficult to fully believe everything he said.

Filled with doubt, Tian Siyao stared intently at the old man's face and questioned him:
“Mr. Blindfold, it’s not that I don’t believe in the suffering you’ve endured, but this birthmark doesn’t prove anything.”

She pointed to a similar birthmark on her left arm and explained:
"Similar birthmarks between people do not mean that we are anything special."

"This can only mean that we may have something in common or hint at some kind of connection."

The blindfolded man was silent for a moment, then smiled wryly and said, "You're right."

"In fact, this birthmark was just a clue for me."

“I did ask several monks to interpret the meaning of this birthmark for me, but all of them were at a loss.”

He did not evade Tian Siyao's questioning, but honestly explained that he had tried his best to seek help.

“I know you are not just ignorant young people from an ordinary small village.”

The blindfolded man looked at Qin Miyue and Chen Ze, his voice revealing a sense of awe.

Qin Miyue smiled slightly, revealing a hint of confidence.

"Yes, we have extraordinary abilities and background."

She looked the blindfolded man over and said trustingly:
“We will do everything we can to help, no matter how difficult the situation you are in.”

Tian Siyao also looked at the blindfolded man, grasped his hand, and expressed her firm support.

The blindfolded man's eyes welled up with tears, and he nodded gratefully.

“Thank you,” he said. “Besides breaking my curse, there is one more thing I hope you can help me with.”

The three of them turned to look at him, awaiting his next words. (End of Chapter)
