By the time Xuan and Zhi Ruo returned to their respective rooms, Grandmaster Dun and several other alchemists had already moved Grandmaster Zong's body out and buried it. Zhi Ruo was going to sleep to get some rest, but Xuan had other plans in mind—namely, practicing the technique he obtained from the city lord.
Perhaps someone else would've been unable to keep a clear mind after what happened, but Xuan was different. He'd seen countless people die before his eyes in the past, and Grandmaster Zong was just another fish in the sea. Xuan wasn't heartless—just apathetic, unless the matter concerned those truly close to him.
Sitting down in his bed in a lotus-position, Xuan opened his inventory and took out the scroll that City Lord Yun Liao had given him earlier. When he spread it out to read its contents, a System message appeared in front of the paper, offering an easier-to-read translation of what was actually written on the scroll.
This happened whenever a player tried to learn a technique—its purpose was language compatibility, since while on Earth there were many different races and languages, in the world of Xianxia Online, there was only one. It also served to make it easier to understand how to use a technique, since sometimes, the archaic writing on some ancient scrolls and scriptures were hard to comprehend for a person used to the modern world.
Xuan found this somewhat odd, since Nirvana could've easily made the techniques to be written in a simple format to begin with and save the hassle of implementing a whole auto-translation feature, but he supposed it was to add realism to the game… or something like that.

Deciding not to dwell on it too much, Xuan instead focused on what was written in front of him:
