I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Chapter 2117 Message
They encountered several attacks along the way, but Chen Lin and Hu San Niang managed to thwart them all.

The three of them successfully arrived at the stone tablet.

"Is this what the Primordial Monument looks like?"

Standing beneath the stone tablet, Hu Sanniang looked at the empty surface and then at Long Xingzhou with a puzzled expression.

Long Xingzhou shook his head.

"I don't know the specifics, but it's said that this stele was made based on the original stele. Perhaps it requires a special method to sense the mysteries on it."

"When you came here last time, did you study this thing? Was there any danger?"

Hu San Niang asked again.

"We've studied it, but we haven't found anything, nor have we encountered any danger."

Long Xingzhou replied.

He immediately added, "However, I came with the clan leader. Our clan leader is a King-level expert. Just because we are safe while he is here doesn't mean we won't encounter danger. It's best to be careful."

"We have to try, even if it's dangerous. We can't stay trapped here forever."

Hu Sanniang, seemingly fearless, began circling the giant stele, occasionally even flying up to observe it.

But no matter how you look at it, the stone tablet is just a huge stone slab, with nothing special about it, not even a single character or pattern on it.

"This thing wasn't switched, was it?"

After watching for a while, Hu Sanniang returned to Chen Lin's side and asked suspiciously.

"It wasn't switched."

Long Xingzhou took over the conversation.

"The stone tablet is the same as when I came last time. Last time, in addition to me and the clan leader, there was also Yu Qiandi of the Demon Clan. He obtained benefits from this stone tablet, so it can't be fake."

"What benefits did Yu Qiandi receive?"

Chen Lin asked upon hearing this.

"I don't know either, but that demon man from before was very likely to have inherited the legacy of Emperor Yuqian, which is why he was able to use the Primordial Stone Tablet."

Thinking of the power of the primordial stone tablet, Chen Lin turned his gaze back to the stone tablet and approached it for a closer look.

After observing for a while without finding anything, I tried touching it.

"boom!"

The entire space suddenly trembled.

Chen Lin was startled.

He quickly withdrew his hand and retreated a short distance.

But it was soon discovered that the tremors were not coming from the stone tablet, but from outside, because the entire space was shaking, just like an earthquake.

"It seems there's been a battle outside."

Hu San Niang's tone was solemn.

Chen Lin and Long Xingzhou's expressions were also uncertain.

The fact that a fight broke out on Mount Damo and could affect the underground ruins must mean that the Old Mountain God was involved. The only one who could stand against the Old Mountain God was the Golden-Patterned Heavenly God.

There was a Golden-Patterned Celestial God here before, but he had been holding back and had not launched an attack.

The fact that they are taking action now indicates that the Heavenly God Palace has the confidence to defeat the Old Mountain God. It is highly likely that other Golden-Patterned Heavenly Gods are coming, or even that all three Golden-Patterned Heavenly Gods are gathered together.

The situation is not good.

The three of them looked at each other, completely at a loss.

"There's no point in thinking too much. Let's keep exploring. If we can't find a way out, we can only hope that the old mountain god is strong enough to protect this place."

Chen Lin put aside his distracting thoughts.

He flew back to the stone tablet and continued searching for anything unusual.

Based on his experience exploring ruins and his understanding of various cultivation civilizations, the ancient shaman must have left behind a legacy here. If he could obtain it, he might be able to break the deadlock.

There's another guess.

He had always thought that his mission in life was to conquer the Heavenly Palace, but after so much time to understand, perhaps finding the secret of the Primordial Monument is the real mission.

Because the Primordial Monument is the core of this realm.

After watching for a while, Chen Lin approached again and touched it with his palm.

A cool sensation entered my palm, but it wasn't supernatural energy; it was just the coolness emanating from the stone tablet.

There was no pause.

Chen Lin touched the stone tablet inch by inch, from top to bottom.

After failing to find it, they began trying to inject energy into the stone tablet, but neither the power of bloodline nor the divinity of the flower imprint had any effect.

Even the wizard's power over the eyeballs was useless.

The stone tablet was just like a real stone; apart from its cold texture, there was nothing about it that was worth noting.

Hu San Niang and Long Xing Zhou were also busy.

Like Chen Lin, they made various attempts, and even transformed into their original forms.

But the result was no different.

Nothing was discovered.

During this time, the space trembled several times, each time more violent than the last, causing the three of them to experience emotional ups and downs.

"I'll go look around elsewhere!"

Hu Sanniang stopped arguing with the stone tablet and shifted her gaze, looking for other suspicious eyes.

Then it pointed to a peculiar building.

"Dragon Boat, what kind of place is that? Have you been there before?"

"Never been."

Long Xingzhou looked over and explained, "The reason why the clan leader and Yu Qiandi were able to enter was because they reached an agreement with the old mountain god, allowing them to only view this stone tablet. They did not explore any other places except for passing by."

"I think that building is quite unique and well-preserved. Why don't we go take a look?"

Hu San Niang then looked at Chen Lin.

Chen Lin hesitated for a moment.

He shook his head and said, "I feel that the core is still this stone tablet. You and Long Xingzhou go first, and I will study it further. As long as we don't get close to those abnormal places, there won't be any major dangers."

"Alright."

Hu San Niang didn't say anything more.

They carefully made their way toward the building, carrying the dragon boat.

Chen Lin then touched his chin.

He reached out and drew the Ghost King's Blade.

His figure soared into the air, his long sword flashing with black light, and slashed fiercely at the stone tablet.

"when!"

The two collided with a crisp sound.

However, the stone tablet was not broken; only a shallow mark was left on it, which quickly disappeared.

then.

Chen Lin then unleashed his indomitable spirit, his fist striking out like a millstone.

didn't work either.

He frowned.

He then extended his left palm, stimulating his eyes.

The original intention was to scan it with the ghostly light, but unexpectedly, after the eyeballs opened, the scene when I was looking at the mechanical remains reappeared. The eyeballs had really become eyeballs, reflecting the image on the stone tablet back to me.

In the haze.

There seem to be some characters above.

He froze for a moment.

I instantly exited the state.

There was still nothing in normal sight.

Chen Lin immediately activated his eyes again, using all his strength. His vision changed, and the stone tablet in front of him first blurred, then lines of fine characters appeared.

Moreover, even though he had never seen this language before, he could understand its meaning.

It made him feel extraordinary.

Not daring to get distracted, I started reading from the beginning.

"We've been scammed."

The first sentence made Chen Lin frown.

This doesn't seem like the inheritance of some kind of supernatural power or secret technique, but rather something like a will.

Calm your mind. Continue watching.

"The claim about the Primordial Monument is a hoax. It does not make us creators; instead, it leaves a curse on the user, and by the time we discover it, it is too late."

"The curse is contagious."

"Any living being that comes into contact with primordial energy will be entangled in a curse, and no matter where it hides or what method it uses, there is no possibility of breaking free."

Chen Lin frowned even more deeply.

Judging from these messages, the extinction of the ancient wizards did not come from external enemies, but from the Primordial Monument.

Moreover, that primordial monument is truly related to the realm of the Creator.

Infer from this.

The ancient witch group must be very powerful, and there must be high-level rulers among them.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to attempt to ascend to the status of Creator.

Chen Lin couldn't help but have second thoughts.

An item that could cause even a high-level ruler to perish is not something he can touch. Even a replica must possess the power of a ruler.

But the ensuing tremors made him suppress his worries.

I gritted my teeth and continued watching.

"We tried countless methods and spent endless effort, but we still couldn't figure out what the curse was. We could only watch helplessly as one fellow disciple after another died."

"And we can't leave this interface either."

"The curse has bound us to this interface, and it seems that new rules have been formed here."

"We had no choice but to seal the Primordial Monument in the hope of weakening the curse, and then seal ourselves in order to find a glimmer of hope."

"Whether it succeeds or not is up to fate."

The writing breaks at this point.

After a long blank period, he started writing again.

"I don't know who you are, but the fact that you were able to obtain the Wizard's Eye means that you are destined to be with our sect, and that fate has guided you here."

Chen Lin's heart skipped a beat.

The phrase he least wants to hear right now is 'the guidance of fate,' because as a practitioner of fate, he knows that once he gets involved with it, it will create trouble that is hard to get rid of.

The Wizard's Eye that the other party mentioned should be the golden eyeball.

The reason he was able to refine this thing was because the Sun-Devouring Earthworm broke through the rules and restrictions of the Ferry of Life, and there really was some kind of fate involved.

He sighed secretly.

Chen Lin suppressed his emotions.

Continue reading below.

Now, survival is the top priority. Even if it is truly a sign from fate, we can only grit our teeth and bear it.

"Our sect is called the Dawn Society, and we come from the River of Hope."

"Before the Wizard's Eye fully comes to life, go to the River of Hope and find the Wizard Council. Give the Wizard's Eye to the Grand Elder and ask him to come and help us."

"Remember."

"We must do it before the Wizard's Eye comes back to life, or you will be devoured by it, and we will lose our chance to be saved."

Chen Lin's lips twitched.

Sure enough, nothing good ever comes when it comes to fate.

But he didn't care either.

This identity is only temporary. Even after completing his life's mission and returning home, he will only use it to escape the fishing of the Old Fisherman of Tianhu Lake. Once he settles down in Xingxu, he will give up this identity.

They can devour it at will.

Chen Lin was more concerned with how to get out of here and how to complete the mission.

“You have refined the Wizard’s Eye, so like us, you cannot leave this world. However, we have crafted a treasure that may be able to break free from the constraints of the rules.”

"It's called the Armor of Hope."

"Besides being able to isolate the rules, it can also enhance your combat power."

"This is the masterpiece of hundreds of our great shamans working together. It was originally intended to be used to resist the Primordial Monument, but now we'll give it to you as a reward."

"Hope you like it."

"You can summon the armor by dripping the blood from your eyeball onto the mark below. Whether it works or not depends on your and our fate."

"remember."

"Only one drop of the Wizard's Eye's blood can be used, otherwise it will easily go out of control. Even if you are the ruler, you will not be able to suppress it when it goes out of control."

"And don't even try to peel it off; believe me, you can't do it."

"Whether our Dawn Society can continue depends on you. Please be sure to complete this task, and you will receive our eternal gratitude."

"please."

Chen Lin read through all the text.

I couldn't quite describe how I felt.

But he immediately put aside his distracting thoughts and looked down at the bottom of the stone tablet.

Sure enough, there was a mark.

It is a complex pattern that looks very beautiful.

Chen Lin walked closer.

Without hesitation, he forced a drop of blood from his eyeball and dripped it onto the pattern.

The eyeball jerked violently, pulling him out of the Wizard's Eye's sight, and twisted and turned as if trying to break free from his grasp.

It also conveyed a strong sense of anger.

Chen Lin had no means to suppress it, so he could only observe quietly.

However, the inscription on the stone tablet was correct; this thing was indeed a living being, and even had its own emotions.

As time goes by, there is a possibility that it will come back to life completely.

After a few breaths.

The eyeballs failed to break free and gradually calmed down.

at the same time.

The pattern beneath the stone tablet shone brightly, 'spitting out' a set of glittering golden armor.

Its sleek design and aesthetic appeal make it clearly an extraordinary piece.

There were no more concerns.

Chen Lin took a step forward, reached out and grabbed the armor. Immediately, a stream of information entered his mind, explaining how to use it.

He cut his wrist, poured the blood into the armor, and it was immediately absorbed.

I sipped my tea for the full time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

The armor finally stopped and emitted a slight hum, creating a strange connection with Chen Lin, as if it were part of his body.

A thought came to my mind.

Armor appeared on his body.

Chen Lin then felt himself 'inflated', and a sense of being able to cut through everything and be omnipotent arose in his heart.

This feeling is not an illusion.

He could clearly feel that his power had increased dramatically, along with his indomitable spirit and the world-shaking divine skill, which were instantly perfected, and his fighting spirit was bursting forth.

"There's definitely something to it."

Chen Lin clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within him, and was secretly amazed.

This armor fits him so well, it's like it was tailor-made for him. Could it be that tens of thousands of years ago, those ancient shamans predicted that the Red Ape Clan would get this item?
That's way too powerful.

Or is it that this armor originally had no attributes, and its attributes changed depending on the blood of the bloodline used to refine it?
Chen Lin hopes it is the latter.

It doesn't matter what it is, as long as the armor is useful to him and can solve his current troubles.

He looked at the stone tablet.

Inspired by an indomitable spirit, his body swelled several times in size, and he unleashed a powerful punch.

"boom!"

The stone tablet shattered upon impact.

Chen Lin raised an eyebrow, looked at his fist, then at the stone tablet, and his eyes lit up.

"A god, is that it? Your grandpa ape has arrived!"

Sensing the immense power, he immediately prepared to go out and fight the gods.

With the armor's enhancement, his strength is almost at the King level, even if it's not quite King level. Coupled with his indomitable spirit's restraint on divinity, he has the power to fight against the Golden-Patterned Celestial God.

Then we can't let the old mountain god fight alone!
