Chapter 175: The ancient bronze tablet!
After getting out of the prison and figuring out the direction, Li Weiyi and Gu Jin flew towards the bronze tablet three thousand miles away.
A moment later, the two arrived three thousand miles east of the prison.
However, this area is completely flat and there is no protruding object at all, let alone a bronze monument.
"There's nothing here!" Li Weiyi looked around in confusion, and there was nothing but sand around him.
After listening to Li Weiyi's complaints, Gu Jin looked at Li Weiyi as if he was an idiot and said, "Thousands of years have passed, and the world has changed a lot! Even if there was a bronze tablet, it would have been buried under the sand under our feet!"
"Uh..." Li Weiyi scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "Then let's dig quickly!"
However, Gu Jin crossed his arms over his chest and stared at Li Weiyi with a look of interest.
"Uh... I understand! I'm just a guy you hired to do odd jobs for you! Alas!~" Li Weiyi sighed helplessly and began to look for the bronze stele.
Li Weiyi released his spiritual power and probed under the sand, searching for the whereabouts of the bronze tablet.
Due to the obstruction of sand and rocks, Li Weiyi's spiritual power cannot explore a depth of ten thousand meters like in the air. It can only explore to a depth of more than seven thousand meters, which is Li Weiyi's limit.
However, a depth of more than 7,000 meters is enough.
"Hey! Aren't you going to explain to me the doubts in my mind? Tell me now, otherwise, it will be boring for me to explore like this!" Li Weiyi shouted to Gu Jin who was standing not far away.
"Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and find the whereabouts of the bronze tablet!" Gu Jin's cold voice replied.
"What a boring guy!" Li Weiyi curled his lips and could only continue with his boring chore.
However, after Li Weiyi had been searching for a few minutes, Gu Jin's voice clearly reached his ears. Li Weiyi looked at Gu Jin in the distance with a little surprise, smiled and shook his head, muttered: "It's not really boring!" Then he searched for the whereabouts of the bronze tablet while listening to Gu Jin's explanation of his doubts.
"In fact, the reason why I am familiar with the planets in your area is because my Gu family was a part of the superpower on Earth at that time, and the illusory figure we saw in the prison before was a remnant of the soul of my Gu family's ancestor!"
"My Gu family's ancestor was also a powerful person in the domain realm! He led the entire Gu family to join this super power, but this super power was destroyed, implicated my entire Gu family, and in the end, only I and my uncle were left in the entire Gu family!"
"In order to survive, my uncle and I had no choice but to join a faction to seek shelter. This faction was the Tianxie Sect of Tianyi Star."
"The Tianxie Sect is considered one of the first-rate forces. It should be no problem for them to protect me and my uncle."
"Besides, other people don't know that my uncle and I are from the Gu family, the superpower on Earth. Therefore, my uncle and nephew have escaped the disaster."
"My current way of doing things is also a habit I have developed over the years in Tianxie Sect. The reason why I tolerate you and the people of Earth is that my Gu family has a connection with your Earth."
"In fact, that ancient map was left by our Gu family's ancestor!"
"The reason I came to this starry sky was because I was being hunted by those guys from the Holy Temple. I had no choice but to use the Great Teleportation Talisman, but I didn't expect to be teleported to the Earth!"
"Logically speaking, this starry sky is a place where demons are sealed. It is all sealed by an extremely powerful sealing formation. Even if I use the Great Teleportation Talisman, I can't enter this starry sky at all!"
"Could it be that after tens of millions of years, the seal has become somewhat loose?"
At the end of his speech, Gu Jin's tone was full of doubts again.
"So that's what's going on!" Li Weiyi said secretly and continued to look for the whereabouts of the bronze tablet.
After a few minutes, Li Weiyi suddenly stopped in confusion. In the perception of Li Weiyi's soul power, a blank area suddenly appeared 300 meters underground in front of him. In that area, Li Weiyi could not feel anything. Rocks, sand, nothing existed, and the soul power could not detect anything at all.
"Huh!? What's going on?" Li Weiyi muttered as he came to the top of the blank area.
"What's wrong? Did you find it?" Gu Jin was always paying attention to Li Weiyi. When he saw Li Weiyi stop, he flew over immediately.
"I don't know. According to my spiritual perception, there is an area three hundred meters below where there is nothing. I don't know what's going on?" Li Weiyi said with some confusion.
"Oh!?" Gu Jin raised his eyebrows and released his spiritual power, probing into the ground three hundred meters deep.
"Huh!? It's true!" Gu Jin was surprised. "In the area of dozens of miles, only this area has abnormalities. Could it be that there is a bronze stele underneath?"
Then, Gu Jin nodded to Li Weiyi and said, "Dig!"
"Um... dig?~" Li Weiyi was a little confused. How to dig without tools?
Seeing Li Weiyi standing there motionless, Gu Jin couldn't help but get angry: "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and do it! Use your air blade to cut!"
"I'm too easy to talk to. I'll do whatever you tell me to do. Really!" Li Weiyi muttered to himself, using his palm instead of a knife to slash down!
"Boom!~"
"Boom!~"
"Boom!~"
…
Li Weiyi swung out his air blade and slashed down below again and again, causing dust , gravel and sand to fly up, and the pit below continued to deepen.
More than ten minutes later, Li Weiyi felt that the air blade he had slashed out hit something, but there was no sound.
"Hmm? Are we there yet?"
Then, Li Weiyi went down to the bottom of the pit and cleaned up the gravel and sand at the bottom of the pit. An ancient bronze tablet nearly ten meters high, two meters wide and half a meter thick appeared in front of Li Weiyi.
"Found it!" Li Weiyi shouted happily to Gu Jin above.
In fact, without Li Weiyi calling out, Gu Jin had already seen the ancient bronze tablet from above. When Li Weiyi just opened his mouth to call out to him, Gu Jin had already flown down.
"Eh?! What's written here?" Li Weiyi touched the ancient words on the bronze tablet and confirmed that he didn't recognize them.
"These are 'wild characters'! It's normal that you can't understand them! Even for me, it would take a long time to understand what is written on the bronze tablet." Gu Jin frowned as he looked at the ancient words on the bronze tablet.
"'Huangwen'? What is that?" Li Weiyi was curious and confused.
"It is said that this 'wild text' is the text that was born naturally when the universe was first created and the great way flowed! It can be said to be the 'ancestor' of the text that we know now!" said Gu Jin.
"Oh!? It's so amazing?!" Li Weiyi was a little shocked. "It turns out that the first characters in the universe, before they evolved, looked like this!"
"It's just that I can't understand any of these words. After reading them for a long time, I feel overwhelmed! " Li Weiyi rubbed his head again and said.
"These 'wild characters' were written by the eldest of my Gu family's ancestors, who is a true master! The words written by such an existence have inexplicable Dao hidden in every stroke. If you can comprehend them often, it will be of great help to your own cultivation!" As he said this, Gu Jin suddenly closed his eyes, "Don't disturb me anymore! I want to calmly comprehend the 'wild characters' on this bronze tablet!"
"Oh!" Li Weiyi responded, and could only sit aside bored.
However, it was quite boring to just sit there like that, so Li Weiyi simply started practicing. Although the vitality on Mars was very thin, it was better than nothing. A few mosquitoes still made meat!
In this way, Li Weiyi practiced on his own, while Gu Jin was concentrating on comprehending the wild text on the bronze tablet.
Time passes slowly without us noticing!
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Jin suddenly opened his eyes and let out a long sigh. He wanted to call Li Weiyi, but he saw Li Weiyi practicing on the side. So he did not speak, but sat cross-legged there and began to ponder.
After a short while, Li Weiyi slowly ended his practice.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Li Weiyi saw Gu Jin sitting there motionless with a frown on his face, wondering what he was thinking about.
"Hey! Do you understand the 'wild words' on this bronze stele?" Li Weiyi asked.
But Gu Jin nodded, then shook his head, without saying anything, his brows still furrowed.
"Huh? What's going on? You nodded and shook your head. Do you understand it? Or don't you understand it?" Li Weiyi looked at Gu Jin with confusion.
After another moment of silence, Gu Jin finally spoke: "This contains a brief biography of that being, as well as the reasons for the demise of this superpower on Earth."
"Oh!? Then why are you nodding and shaking your head?" Li Weiyi still didn't understand.
"It records the reason for the demise of this super power on Earth, but I don't quite understand it." Gu Jin shook his head and said.
"Then...what is the reason for the destruction recorded on this bronze tablet?" Li Weiyi was very curious. What kind of question could stump Gu Jin?
"The reason for the destruction is recorded on the bronze tablet. There are only two words! 'Self-destruction'!" Gu Jin said with a frown.
"Self-destruction?" Li Weiyi was puzzled. "Self-destruction? Or did he destroy himself?"
Gu Jin shook his head and said nothing more.
After thinking for a while without any result, Li Weiyi stood up, walked to the bronze tablet, hugged the bronze tablet with both hands, and tried to pull it up. However, after trying several times, Li Weiyi was unable to pull up the bronze tablet even a little bit.
"What do you want to do?" Gu Jin turned his head and looked at Li Weiyi.
"Didn't you say that the 'wild text' on this bronze stele was written by the master, and that observing it often can improve one's own cultivation? I was wondering if I could take it away so that I could observe it every day!" Li Weiyi said seriously.
"Ah!?" Gu Jin was slightly stunned, but he smiled and shook his head, saying: "There is the will of that existence on this bronze tablet. That is the true invincible will! It will never disappear or perish! How can ?"
"Uh... I'm just trying it! What if it succeeds?" Li Weiyi said stubbornly.
"Hmph! What if it succeeds? Do you think you are that kind of person?" Gu Jin glanced at Li Weiyi unhappily.
"Haha! Just a joke!" Li Weiyi smiled awkwardly and moved away from the bronze tablet.
