Chapter 998 – Stone Tablet
When the old man and his duo flew out of the strangely long and incomparable passageway, Han Li was already floating high in the air outside of the passageway, looking at the top of the canyon’s mountain chasm and listening to something with his side ears.
It was only then that the old man and his duo realized that the rumbling sound that was faintly coming from outside had instead gotten weaker and weaker. If it wasn’t for the fact that the three of them were all YuanYing cultivators, with ears and eyes far beyond those of normal people, I’m afraid that this sound would only be a light breeze to the ears.
”It seems to be coming from above, and it’s very far away. If it wasn’t for the fact that this place was sealed by a prohibition to form a closed space, the echoing power was just too great. We wouldn’t have been able to hear it originally.” After listening for a moment, the old man with the surname Fu said with a frown on his face “Since we are unfamiliar with everything here. We might as well go over and take a look first, it’s better than us stifling our heads and bumping around. Of course it would be best for us to cast a stealthy means to hurry, and try not to let others discover us first.” Han Li twisted his head to look at the two and said suggestively.
The old man surnamed Fu and the two naturally did not have any opinions. That is, the two of them agreed with their mouths full.
The old man’s two hands a pinch, the body suddenly emerged a large green light, and then the light convergence of a turn dim. The old man’s figure is also blurred, and eventually turned into a faint green shadow. If you do not come to the front to look closely, really can not be found its existence.
Of course, this is also because of this mountain on the divine sense of the great suppression of the reason. If it is outside this mountain, this concealment technique for the same level of cultivators, can be greatly reduced.
Bai Yaoyi is a lift of the jade hand, between the fingers of the cold light flashes, more than a crystalline token, as if the ice crystal refined.
One hand raised the token, the woman’s mouth at the same time issued a pleasant incantation sound, instantly from the card sprayed a silver haze out. In a moment, the woman’s exquisite figure was submerged in it.
Then, with a flash of light, Bai Yaoyi’s figure became invisible in thin air.
Seeing the two successive spells, cover up the tracks, Han Li smiled under, also do not see any action, just a slight flash of light on the body, it suddenly breath all.
Any rich old man and Bai Yaoyi stood in front of Han Li, just by divine sense, almost thought that there was no one in front of him.
This time, the old man and the two were both startled in their hearts.
And it was at this time that Han Li unhurriedly fished out a Concealment Talisman and casually affixed it to his body, and his figure instantly became iffy as well.
”Depart!” Han Li let out a low gulp under his breath, and then the three of them rose into the air.
In such a mysterious and unfamiliar place, none of the three would fly much faster. Almost only at a speed that was so much faster than the Light Body Technique, they pursued toward that roaring sound.
The three of them flew all the way, and the places they passed were all lush and full of spiritual qi. Almost every place is an excellent cultivation place in the human world. If placed outside, I don’t know how many Immortal Cultivation sects would grab their heads.
But here, they abounded!
Half an hour later, Han Li’s three did not encounter any accidents, nor did they show any joy.
The dead air along the way, the scenery without the slightest living thing, made them feel apprehensive and greatly depressed.
”Brother Han, have you guys noticed? The spiritual qi here is so good, but after flying such a long distance, we haven’t seen a single spiritual grass or tree on the way, all of them are ordinary grasses and trees, which is a bit wrong.” Bai Yaoyi spoke up hesitantly.
”I’ve noticed it as well. Although the spiritual qi here is good, the higher up you go, the more abundant the spiritual qi becomes. This is rather the same as the Spirit Mountain in the outside world. Probably the original cultivators of this mountain felt that planting spiritual grasses on the mountain would be more effective. It was probably done on purpose.” Han Li, however, didn’t look surprised and just leisurely said.
”It’s even more abundant than this place’s spiritual qi!” Bai Yaoyi was somewhat appalled.
After all, the aura here had already made her feel that it was an excellent place to cultivate.
”Brother Han, if there really is a better cultivation sanctuary at the top of this mountain, we may not necessarily be in a hurry to go out. How about cultivating in this mountain for a period of time.” The old man with the surname Fu was somewhat moved when he heard Han Li say this.
”Brother Fu wouldn’t really treat this place as an ordinary spirit mountain. If such a place with abundant spiritual energy could be cultivated peacefully, how could it have been abandoned by the original cultivators. Moreover, the way the entire spirit mountain is forbidden, it’s evident that this mountain is odd. If I could get out, Mister Han wouldn’t stay.” Han Li said with a hefty sneer.
Hearing Han Li say this, the old man with the surname Fu’s face changed several times before he finally let out a bitter smile.
”Brother Han has a point. This place is indeed not a place for meditation. Rather, it’s because of Fu’s momentary greed for the aura of this place that he was a bit confused.”
”It’s no wonder Brother Fu thought so. It’s not just you who have this thought, my concubine also had this thought just now. After all, having such a cultivation place could save us quite a bit of meditation time.” Bai Yaoyi also said regretfully.
Han Li smiled faintly and was about to say something else when his gaze inadvertently swept down but his face changed slightly, instantly stopping the recluse.
The blue aura in his pupils flickered as he gazed to the side.
The old man and Bai Yaoyi are a little strange, followed Han Li gaze.
They only saw a slightly distant place surrounded by white mist, somewhat blurred. However, the three of them had already seen this mountain mist shrouded situation many times on the road, and did not feel that there was any unusual movement. It was also impossible to go deeper into the fog every time to explore something.
”Go over and take a look. There’s something there that might be useful to us.” Han Li said so with a flash of his gaze, then the recluse suddenly changed and shot straight into the white fog.
The old man and Bai Yaoyi were strange in their hearts, but they also knew that Han Li wouldn’t put up a fight for no reason, so they didn’t hesitate to follow them over.
As a result, when they too walked into the white mist, they were dumbfounded.
Only to see that in the mist, a wide white stone staircase led straight to the bottom of the mountain, with no end in sight. And beside the steps in the mist, there was a white nightmare monument. It was more than ten feet tall and three feet wide.
Han Li stood in front of the monument with his hands behind his back, staring blankly at something on it.
”Why, has brother Han discovered something?” The old man asked curiously after landing on the platform.
”Now, finally, I know where this mountain is. Come over and take a look, two fellow Daoists! This stone tablet happens to have the origin of this mountain engraved on it.” Han Li turned his head and said in a deep voice, his expression grave.
”Oh. Let me take a look!”
The old man’s spirit perked up at the words and immediately took a few steps over. Bai Yaoyi also followed with a light movement of her lotus feet.
As a result, after the two of them swept their gazes over the stone tablet, they had a clear picture.
Because there were only two ancient characters on the stone tablet, two big golden characters written by the dragon and the phoenix.
”Kun Wu! Could this be the rumored Kunwu Mountain!” The old man with the surname Fu shouted out of his mouth at the sight of the ancient text, and then exclaimed in shock.
Bai Yaoyi, the woman, covered her apricot mouth with one hand, her beautiful eyes similarly full of shocked expressions.
”Not bad, it should be Mount Kunwu. In ancient times, this mountain was known as the Immortal Mountain, a holy place of cultivation where ancient cultivators gathered together. And looking at how huge this mountain is and how dense the aura is, it’s definitely Mount Kunwu. But in the rumors, wasn’t this mountain brought to the Spirit World by ancient cultivators or sunk to the Yellow Springs because of the cultivators’ fights! How could it appear here?” Bai Yaoyi muttered as she stared at the stone tablet, still somewhat incredulous.
”Fellow Daoist Bai, those are just some rumors. It seems that the real situation should be that for some unknown reason, this mountain was sealed. And the three of us happened to touch the Ancient Transmission Formation and were inexplicably transported to this place! With the reputation of this mountain, there must be countless ancient cultivators’ caves here. As long as we can find some of them, we’re sure to be greatly rewarded.” The old man with the surname Fu quickly recovered, but his voice was filled with surprise.
”Perhaps. But judging from the circumstances of this mountain being sealed, those ancient cultivators should have left this mountain prepared. I don’t really think that there would really be too many useful things in those ancient cultivators’ caves. On the contrary, although this mountain monument was roughly sacrificed in the first place, I don’t know how many tens of thousands of years it has been erected in this place, how much heaven and earth aura it has absorbed, and it has long since become an exotic treasure.” Han Li shook his head, then suddenly stepped forward, reached out and gently patted a few times on the stone monument, his gaze flickering as he said.
”What, this mountain monument is a treasure?” The old man with the surname Fu and Bai Yaoyi were stunned, and then with a shock re-surveyed the monument, and were then speechless.
This monument was just an ordinary green stone monument no matter how one looked at it, although it was said to have some spiritual qi attached to it, it simply couldn’t even be compared to the most inferior refining materials!
The two of them couldn’t help but glance at Han Li with odd gazes.
”Heh heh, it seems that the two of you are not quite convinced. However, it’s fine for me to identify it.” The corners of Han Li’s mouth curled up slightly, looking as normal, but in fact, his heart was greatly puzzled.
Because not to mention the next two people did not see anything to, is that he himself also similarly did not see what so out. The reason why he would say so, but originally has been in the spirit beast bag peacefully stayed in the earth armor dragon, in the moment he approached the stone monument, suddenly cranky and uneasy.
It kept signaling the unusual nature of this object by chirping through its transmission.
Han Li even used the Bright Clear Spiritual Eyes to scan over this stone tablet, and still didn’t find anything special, so his heart was naturally skeptical.
But out of the mindset that there is no letting go of killing, Han Li hesitated for a moment, but also only hard-headedly uttered these inscrutable words.
Immediately have an excuse for him, pressed on the monument on the palm of the hand instantly on the release of green-colored haze light.
The monument huge trembling under, in the light began to rapidly shrink.
Seeing him shrink to the original half of the time, Han Li double eyebrow jumped, one hand haze light a volume, will be this monument will be lifted, so as to collect into the storage bag.
But on the monument was lifted feet when, change suddenly.
Seemingly ordinary green stone monument suddenly a buzzing, and then released ten thousand white light.
Almost at the same time, Han Li suddenly felt it sink, the Xia light surprisingly can no longer prohibit this monument. “Boom” after a sound, it fell back to the original place. As if 10,000 pounds of huge things fall to the ground, let the nearby ground a burst of violent shaking.
The three Han Li’s ears were buzzing. The surface of the stone platform within dozens of feet below the stone monument, moreover, all broke apart inch by inch.
”This is?” Han Li’s heart was startled, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
