Chapter 348: Spirit Rune Carvings
The latter’s gaze fell on the two of them, with a slight smile in his eyes.
“There are many mysterious spirit runes and reliefs on the walls of this space.
But they all look extremely dilapidated, and the information they convey is fragmented and incomprehensible.
After observing for a long time, this old man hasn’t gained anything.
It’s also possible that this old man is getting old, his thinking can’t keep up, you two might want to try.
If you can gain something here, it would be a pleasant surprise.
As for other aspects, you needn’t concern yourselves.”
As soon as Shen Yifeng finished speaking, he made a hand gesture, and the Killing Sword, which he had used to kill Hong Seng, reappeared before him.The crimson sword glow surged.
Immediately, it flew straight towards the center of the space.
Suspended in mid-air, the sword qi instantly enveloped the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators from various factions who were wandering around the space.
“Get out! This is not a place for you!”
Shen Yifeng’s voice suddenly echoed throughout the space.
All the people from various forces showed fear in their eyes, and were terrified.
Previously, Shen Yifeng had been unwilling to pay attention to them, only because Su Jingzhen and Luo Yuebai hadn’t arrived to comprehend the remnants on the walls.
Now, he was unwilling to let anyone disturb Su Jingzhen and the others’ comprehension.
Seeing that everyone was still stunned, Shen Yifeng spoke again: “Thirty breaths!
Anyone who remains here after thirty breaths will be struck by this old man’s sword.”
He didn’t even give these people a chance to react, Shen Yifeng’s aura became even more fierce.
Hearing this, those who were still fixated on the spirit runes on the walls immediately gave up.
No matter what they could comprehend from them, it wasn’t worth their lives.
The corpses scattered across the Free and Unfettered Sect served as the best warning.
The Golden Core and Foundation Establishment stage cultivators immediately fled towards the void passage in panic.
They didn’t doubt Shen Yifeng’s ability to kill them all with a single sword.
This was the intimidation a demon could bring.
Witnessing this scene, Su Jingzhen felt a tinge of emotion in his heart.
Sometimes, being a fearsome demon that everyone shuns, wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
At least when it came to killing or taking things, there was no need to find any justification.
One could simply do as they pleased.
Shen Yifeng had given them thirty breaths, but in reality, it was only ten. All the cultivators from various factions who had been wandering around previously had entered the void passage and left.
“Alright, with this old man guarding here, you two can comprehend at ease, for as long as you need.
After these fellows leave, they should spread the word about what happened here. Those Nascent Soul cultivators who were previously imprisoned probably won’t dare to come down again.”
Shen Yifeng’s voice was still full of confidence.
Seeing this, Su Jingzhen and Luo Yuebai wasted no time.
They immediately began to intently study the runes and patterns engraved on the walls.
However, when Su Jingzhen’s spiritual sense fell upon these runes, his brows furrowed again.
Because at that moment, he felt a sense of familiarity, as if he were looking at the twelve white jade pillars on Wind Bell Island in Yunmeng City once more.
These runes seemed to have some kind of power that was gently repelling him.
At least, he didn’t feel anything particularly special.
Luo Yuebai, on the other hand, seemed to have fallen into a trance the moment she laid eyes upon them. She stood motionless, as if in meditation.
While Luo Yuebai was in a meditative state, Su Jingzhen began to walk around.
The space wasn’t large, but it wasn’t small either. There were many patterns on the walls.
Some depicted dilapidated palaces, others showed scenes of cultivators battling, and others still portrayed scenes of peace and prosperity…
But all of them were fragmented and incomplete.
Accompanying these images were various mysterious and complex runes.
Su Jingzhen could sense a certain Dao rhyme emanating from them, but he couldn’t penetrate it.
So he could only skim the surface, unable to make any sense of it.
In less than half an hour, he had walked around the entire space.
He returned to his starting point, standing beside Luo Yuebai and Shen Yifeng.
“You kid… have you made any discoveries?”
Shen Yifeng naturally saw Su Jingzhen’s state and knew he must be incompatible with the remnants in this space.
However, he couldn’t help but ask.
After all, this guy had always been good at creating miracles. What if he had truly comprehended everything so quickly this time?
Hearing Shen Yifeng’s question, Su Jingzhen nodded seriously. “Returning to Master’s words, disciple has indeed discovered something.”
Shen Yifeng’s expression immediately became serious, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Su Jingzhen didn’t beat around the bush. “Disciple saw from these reliefs that there was once a rather powerful sect standing here.
But later, they were destroyed…”
Shen Yifeng: “………Just that?”
Su Jingzhen scratched his head. “What else?”
Although the reliefs on the four walls were broken and disjointed, and seemed to have lost a lot of information, anyone who walked around could see the information Su Jingzhen mentioned.
Shen Yifeng was speechless.
He sighed helplessly. “It seems this place is truly incompatible with you, kid.
Alright, let’s just protect Yuebai for now.
When she finishes her comprehension, we should leave.
Besides Zhao Tianming and his group, there are still many alchemists being pursued between Tianning City and Linjiang City.
If you want to develop the Dan Hall, you need to try your best to recruit those alchemists with some foundation and alchemy apprentices.”
Su Jingzhen nodded, but he didn’t want to stay here honestly at this moment.
He always felt that he was only one step away from understanding something in this space, or in other words, the spiritual patterns on the walls.
“Master, you stay here and watch, I’ll go for another walk.”
As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze fell on the runes on the four walls again.
This time, he directly pressed his body against them, gently touching every inch of the runes with his hands.
“Always missing something? Could it really be that I’m incompatible with the opportunities here?”
Su Jingzhen muttered to himself.
Then he gently tapped the stone wall bearing the inscription.
“Could it be inside?”
After muttering again, Su Jingzhen took out his black brick.
He tapped a corner of a broken rune pattern on the wall.
“Ding!”
A clear sound rang out.
A corner of the rune pattern on the stone wall fell off with a sound.
At this moment, Su Jingzhen clearly sensed that the black brick in his hand seemed to have emitted a rather mysterious fluctuation.
As if it had absorbed something.
Su Jingzhen’s mind shook suddenly.
He sensed the stone wall in front of him again with his spiritual sense, but the Dao rhyme that had originally existed on it was completely gone.
