Chapter 29: "Divine Summoning : THE CALL OF THE @_&#-$"

Seeing Noah's astonishment, Xin Yan continued to explain the general situation of the world to him. 

"There is one more reason, when cultivators with many elements decide to focus on every element. They need more resources to progress faster and the sect doesn't want to invest in them, thinking that it would waste their resources. The sects want fast results so that they do not get left behind by other sects."

She clearly explained the true nature of the sects in the world with a frown on her face, it was clear that she did not like the so-called sects but she did not loath it because it was the nature of the world. 

Before she did not even hate this kind of thing but after becoming the mother of Long Tian, who would have joined one these sects she came to hate them.

"So they are just short-sighted fools. They want results while hoarding resources for themselves. They are like nobles from my world."

Noah sighed and thought about Long Tian's talent. He obtained the detailed explanation from Long Tian memories on how talent was assessed and his eyes shone. 

'Well, that was his talent. I have to assess my own potential before I begin cultivation.'

Talents are just not based on the spirit roots inside the body of a person but it also depends on several other factors like how much a person can resonate with the universe with his soul. Noah was confident he could gain batter talent with his soul.

"Do you have the orbs that test talent?"

Nodding Xin Yan took out an orb from the storage ring on her finger and presented it to Noah. She did not think much about as to why he was asking because she was the one who taught Long Tian about how these orbs measure talents.

" Seriously you had this and you let him go there."

Noah gave her a deadpan look and in response she lowered her head in embarrassment. She also felt guilty about letting him go.

"He was so excited about the prospect of going there, and those idiots never allowed him to leave the house. So I thought, since he finally has an opportunity, why not let him go?"

Noah understood Xin Yan's intention and took the ball from her hand. When he held the ball, it started to shine a little, and tiny sparks appeared around it.

To avoid any problems, he played with his fingers. Suddenly special marks appeared all around the room.

These marks helped hide what they were doing from anyone who might be watching or listening.

Noah knew it was important to be careful, so he didn't stop there.

He added more of these marks to make no aura leaks outside the room. A streak of blood trailed down the corner of his lips.

Cleaning the blood he looked at the concerned face of Xin Yan.

"What are these? I can't see anything but I can feel them through my soul sense."

Her words brought a slight smile on his face as he started telling her about seals. While he was talking, the ball started its function.

"I specialized in seals in my previous life . Seals are similar to what you call Arrays or formations but they are different at the same time." He made a small seal on his hand that was invisible to her but she could sense it clearly." Arrays are placed in the physical plane while Seals are placed in the Astral plane which need a strong soul to identify."

Although still confused Xin Yan understood a little of the basics of what he was telling her.

She was shocked at the level of mastery he has over these seals. She was even more curious about the new energy he mentioned, his words seemed to have opened doors to a new world for her. 

A Magical World!!

" What's magic?"

"Magic involves using the natural energy called mana that's around us. We can use our intentions to interact with this energy and create attacks or effects. Alternatively, we can also use our own magical energy stored in a special place called a mana core or Dantian, as you call it. In our case, the mana core is located in the heart."

He wanted to speak further but the changes in the Orb took their attention.

The orb which was white started glimmering Golden sparks as it engulfed it whole and an arms width pillar of Golden light mixed with white colors shot through the orb rushing towards the sky.

Well that would have been possible if there were no seals present.

Noah was praising himself for the caution as that would have attracted other dangerous beings as well.

"These seals are really powerful, but that golden color, what does it mean in terms of talent?"

Xin Yan was shocked to see the changes in the orb and asked in astonishment

"Who knows, maybe there are more classifications than we know of."

Hearing his Words Xin Yan remembered a popular saying 'There's a sky above a sky.'

"Let's check the elemental affinities before I move to my next activity."

"What is that activity?" Xin Yan asked, her voice filled with curiosity.

"That will be a secret for now." Noah spoke creating an air of mystery as took the second orb which Xin Yan took out.

The orb glowed and all the six colors started appearing. Noah whistled seeing his own talent.

There was nothing like this to test the talent in his previous life, which is the reason it caught his interest.

"I am quite talented, aren't I?" His remark caused Xin Yan to roll her eyes.

"What's your plan now? I don't have any cultivation techniques for this particular talent of yours."

" It's Fine, I can make my own cultivation techniques but what I need is knowledge about cultivation. Now it's time for that."

Xin Yan was puzzled by his words but her expression changed when she saw him biting the corner of his thumb to draw blood.

Noah sat down on the floor and slammed his hands on the ground in a mysterious language that Xin Yan could not comprehend.
