The Man's Decree

“While Master was cultivating here, I’ve been secretly learning from him for over a century. Fortunately, Master is a kind-hearted man. When he found out I was learning behind his back, he didn’t blame me. Instead, he took me in as his disciple. Otherwise, there’s no way I could have taken a human form. At most, I would have been just a demon mouse, never knowing when I might be killed by someone.

Since Master entrusted you to me, you must commit to your cultivation and not even think of slacking off. Only when you can break through the surrounding arcane array will you be able to leave this place!” Mickey told Jared.

“Got it!” Jared realized that he couldn’t escape from this place, so he decided to focus on learning the divine markings technique.

Jared was seated cross-legged, while Mickey explained to him the ancient method of inscribing divine markings.

Listening to Mickey’s explanation, Jared gradually discovered that these ancient divine markings were distinctly different from the ordinary array runes.

Seeing Jared’s earnest attention, Mickey gave a satisfied nod and explained meticulously, “The unique aspect of divine markings is that it doesn’t rely on a cultivator’s spiritual energy to be inscribed and used to lay out a grand arcane array. Even an ordinary person who understands the art of divine markings could inscribe them. The activation of these divine markings doesn’t require spiritual energy as a medium. What it needs is one’s own divine soul. I’m going to teach you how to inscribe divine markings now. You must control your consciousness and remember not to use your spiritual energy. You need to focus all your awareness on this divine marking. Envision yourself as a part of the divine marking, as if the entire arcane array is a part of your own body. Don’t perceive these divine markings as weapons to ward off enemies. Instead, consider them as part of your own body.”
