Under One Person: I Opened the Age of Mythology

Chapter 506

Sun Wukong nodded slightly, gently pressing his palm on the runes of the container, feeling the faint energy fluctuations within.

He raised his head, his gaze sweeping across the cave, his voice low and steady:
“The energy of these stones does indeed resonate with the fragment of the Chaos Bead in our hands. Perhaps we can use their energy to further stabilize the fragment.”

Yang Jian didn't say much. He quickly took out a stone from his Qiankun bag, and gently ran his fingers across its surface. The silver light of the runes flowed rapidly, intertwining with the stone's energy.

He slowly placed the stone beside the container, his expression focused and his movements cautious, as if he were placing a highly unstable and dangerous object.

"Although these stones possess powerful energy, they are not easy to channel."

Yang Jian said in a low voice, his brows furrowing slightly.

"We need to find the right way to guide them, otherwise it could backfire."

Sun Wukong did not respond, his gaze still fixed on the energy interaction between the stone and the container, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

His fingers gently traced the surface of the container, feeling the energy fluctuations gradually increase, and the lines of the runes flickered slightly.

He suddenly spoke, his tone tinged with a hint of probing:
"Perhaps the energy of the stone can be channeled to specific runes on the container to enhance the seal's effect."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian quickly used his three-pointed double-edged sword to inscribe a rune in the air. The rune's silver light rapidly spread, enveloping the stone and the container.

His movements were fluid, his expression focused, and the lines of runes intertwined in the air, forming a complex energy channel.

"This rune can channel the energy of the stone into the container."

Yang Jian explained in a low voice, his eyes fixed on the flow of energy through the channel.

"But how effective it will be remains to be seen."

Sun Wukong gently traced the runes with his fingertips, feeling the energy fluctuations gradually stabilize, and a hint of approval flashed in his eyes.

He nodded slightly, his tone carrying a hint of approval:
"Very good, the energy has stabilized. Now we just need to wait for the energy to fully fuse."

Nezha stood at the entrance of the cave, the flames of his Fire-Tipped Spear flickering slightly, reflecting his somewhat impatient expression.

His gaze swept across the cave, his tone carrying a hint of urging:
"Have you guys got it sorted out yet? I don't want to just sit here waiting!"

Sun Wukong raised his head, his gaze calm, his tone steady:

"Don't rush, the seal's effect is steadily improving, we must ensure it's foolproof."

Nezha shrugged, the flames of his Fire-Tipped Spear dimming slightly, his tone tinged with helplessness:
"Alright, you guys take your time. I'll go take a walk around and see if any fools come to cause trouble."

After he finished speaking, he flashed, and the flame of the Fire-Tipped Spear drew an arc in the air before quickly disappearing into the shadows of the cave.

Yang Jian ignored Nezha's departure, his gaze still fixed on the energy interaction between the stone and the container, his expression focused.

His fingers lightly traced the runes, and he felt the energy fluctuations gradually increase, causing his brows to furrow slightly.

"The intensity of this energy is somewhat beyond our expectations, and we need to further consolidate it."

Yang Jian said in a low voice, his tone tinged with caution.

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong quickly took out a spirit stone from his pocket and gently placed it next to the container, causing the lines of the runes to flicker slightly.

His movements were gentle, and his expression was focused, as if he were handling an extremely fragile object.

"This spirit stone can neutralize some of the violent energy, making the seal more stable."

Sun Wukong explained in a low voice, his eyes fixed on the energy interaction between the spirit stone and the container.

Yang Jian nodded slightly, and with a gentle wave of his three-pointed double-edged sword, the silver light of the runes spread rapidly, further stabilizing the energy channel.

His movements were fluid, his expression focused, and the lines of the runes intertwined in the air, forming a more complex energy network.

"The energy has stabilized; the key now is to maintain the balance."

Yang Jian said in a low voice, his eyes still fixed on the changes in the energy network.

Sun Wukong did not respond, but gently pressed his palm on the surface of the container, feeling the faint energy fluctuations within.

His gaze was piercing, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes:
"If we hold on for just a little longer, the seal will reach its optimal effect."

The cave was eerily quiet, with only the soft breathing of Sun Wukong and Yang Jian and the faint hum of energy flowing through it.

The air was thick with the smell of sulfur, and the runes on the rock wall flickered slightly, reflecting the focused expressions of the two people.

A moment later, Sun Wukong withdrew his palm, his gaze sweeping over the container, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

He nodded slightly, his tone carrying a hint of ease:
"The seal has been secured, and the energy fluctuations of the Chaos Pearl fragment have almost completely disappeared."

Yang Jian also sheathed his three-pointed double-edged sword, the silver light of the runes quickly dissipated, and his expression relaxed slightly.

He nodded slightly, his voice low:

"Although the situation has been stabilized for the time being, it remains to be seen whether the effects will last."

Nezha returned from outside the cave, the flames of his Fire-Tipped Spear flickering slightly, reflecting his somewhat smug expression.

His gaze swept across the cave, his tone carrying a hint of ease:
"There's no noise around. Looks like those clueless guys have all hidden themselves."

Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong nodded slightly, his gaze returning to the container, his tone thoughtful:

"Now that the fragments of the Chaos Pearl have been temporarily stabilized, our next task is to find a way to completely resolve this issue."

Yang Jian nodded slightly, and with a gentle flick of his three-pointed, double-edged sword, the silver light of the runes shimmered faintly. His voice was low and deep:

"Although the energy deep within the earth's veins is powerful, it is extremely complex to control, so we need to proceed with caution."

Nezha's Fire-Tipped Spear drew an arc in the air, the flames flickering slightly, his tone tinged with impatience:
"Now that everything's settled, let's get started. I don't want to waste any more time here!"

Sun Wukong said nothing more, gently pressing his palm against the surface of the container, sensing the faint energy fluctuations within.

He nodded slightly, his gaze firm:

"Alright, let's act immediately and make sure to solve this problem completely before the seal fails."

The three quickly left the cave and continued along the ley line.

Inside the passage, a faint smell of sulfur permeated the damp air, and muffled rumblings from deep underground sounded like the low growls of a giant beast. Sun Wukong walked at the front, each step firm and powerful. He would occasionally look back to check on Yang Jian and Nezha to make sure they kept up.

Yang Jian followed closely behind, his three-pointed double-edged sword gleaming slightly as he warily surveyed his surroundings, occasionally tapping the ground with the tip of his blade to test the stability of the geology.

Nezha brought up the rear, his Fire-Tipped Spear dragging on the ground, making a slight scraping sound. He would look around from time to time, and then look up at the top of the passage, his eyes sharp and his vigilance undiminished.

Sun Wukong stood in the cave, his palm gently pressed on the container containing the fragments of the Chaos Pearl, his fingertips sensing the faint energy fluctuations within.

His gaze was focused, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he were pondering something.

After a moment, he gently ran his fingers over the runes, feeling the stability of the seal, before nodding slightly and carefully putting the container into his pocket.

"The seal is temporarily secure, but we cannot let our guard down."

Sun Wukong's voice was deep and steady, his gaze sweeping over Yang Jian and Nezha, his tone carrying a hint of caution.

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian tilted his three-pointed double-edged sword slightly, and the silver runes on the blade swirled rapidly, gradually outlining a more detailed map of the earth's veins in the air.

His gaze was calm, his finger lightly tracing the map, his voice steady:

“I have marked more potential danger zones, as well as some places that may be clues. These places have abnormal energy fluctuations, which may be related to the origin of the Chaos Pearl fragments.”

Nezha stood to the side, the flame of his Fire-Tipped Spear flickering slightly, reflecting his somewhat impatient expression.

He glanced at the ley line map, a confident smile playing on his lips.

Yang Jian ignored Nezha's confidence, and with a light wave of his three-pointed double-edged sword, the runes on the earth vein map shimmered slightly, making the marked routes clearer.

His gaze remained calm, and his tone was low:
"The environment deep within the earth's veins is complex, and we cannot be careless. Although this route is relatively safe, it is not entirely without danger."

Sun Wukong nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the earth's vein map, a thoughtful look in his eyes:

“In that case, let’s proceed along this route and try to avoid those dangerous areas. However, Nezha, you need to set up a stronger warning formation around us, just in case.”

Upon hearing this, Nezha's Fire-Tipped Spear suddenly flared up, and the flames at the tip of the spear drew a blazing beam of light in the air, striking the ground directly.

The moment the flames fell, a ring of complex runes appeared on the ground, instantly forming a powerful warning array.

A slight smile played on his lips, his tone tinged with smugness:
"Now look what's happened, whoever comes here is doomed."

Yang Jian nodded slightly, and with a gentle turn of his three-pointed double-edged sword, the silver light of the runes spread rapidly, probing the surrounding energy fluctuations.

His gaze was focused, and his voice was deep:
"The formation is well set up, but we still need to reserve some fire magic as a means of continuous vigilance to prevent any fish from slipping through the net."

Nezha shrugged, the flames on his Fire-Tipped Spear dimming slightly, his tone tinged with impatience:

"Alright, I'll leave some more fire magic around here to make sure everything is foolproof."

After he finished speaking, he slightly tapped the tip of the Fire-Tipped Spear, and several flames flew out from the tip, quickly merging into the ground and turning into a net of fire that covered the area around the warning formation.

The flames flickered slightly, radiating intense heat, as if warning any creature that tried to approach.

Sun Wukong watched Nezha's actions, nodded slightly, and spoke with a hint of approval:
"That's about right. Let's go. Perhaps we can find a way to completely resolve the fragments of the Chaos Pearl in the ancient ruins deep within the earth's veins."

Yang Jian didn't say much. He tilted the three-pointed double-edged sword in his hand slightly, and the silver light of the runes spread rapidly, probing the path ahead.

His gaze was calm, and his tone was low:
"The energy fluctuations ahead are relatively stable, but we must remain vigilant."

Nezha gripped his Fire-Tipped Spear tightly, the flame at the tip flickering slightly, his tone tinged with urgency:

"Stop arguing and let's get going. I don't want to waste any more time here!"

Sun Wukong took a deep breath, his gaze resolute, and took the lead in walking towards the depths of the earth's veins.

His steps were steady, and the light of celestial magic flowed around him, as he was always on guard against any potential dangers.

Yang Jian followed closely behind, his three-pointed double-edged sword slightly tilted, the silver light of the runes constantly probing the path ahead.

His eyes were sharp and his expression focused, as if he were searching for any possible anomaly.

Nezha walked at the back, the flames of his Fire-Tipped Spear flickering slightly, dispelling the gloomy atmosphere in the passage.

His gaze was as sharp as a hawk's, scanning his surroundings warily, always on guard against any potential danger.

The three of them proceeded along the route on the ley line map. Faint ley line runes flickered on the rock walls on both sides of the passage, and a faint smell of sulfur filled the air.

Their footsteps echoed through the passage, like whispers from the depths of the earth, constantly reminding them of the dangers of their journey.

A moment later, Sun Wukong suddenly stopped, his gaze fixed ahead, and his voice low and deep:
"There's a strange fluctuation ahead; it seems rather unusual."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian slightly turned the three-pointed double-edged sword in his hand, and the silver light of the runes quickly spread out, probing the energy fluctuations in front of him.

Sun Wukong gently pressed his palm against the container containing the fragments of the Chaos Pearl, sensing the faint energy fluctuations within.

His gaze was piercing, and his tone was firm:
"In any case, we must proceed with caution. Let's go, and keep moving forward."

The three continued forward, and at the end of the passage, a massive stone gate was faintly visible. The gate was covered in ancient runes and emitted a faint red glow.
A powerful energy surge rushed out from behind the door, as if warning them of the danger ahead.

Sun Wukong stood before the stone gate, his gaze fixed on the runes on it, his voice low and deep:
"There's a seal on this stone door, and it seems somewhat familiar."

Yang Jian stepped forward, his fingers gently tracing the patterns on the stone gate, sensing the faint energy fluctuations within.

His gaze was calm, and his tone was steady:
"This seal seems to be ancient; it requires a certain amount of power to break it."

Nezha's Fire-Tipped Spear gleamed slightly, and his tone carried a hint of impatience:
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's make our move!"

Yang Jian ignored Nezha's urging, tilting his three-pointed double-edged sword slightly, the silver light of the runes flowing rapidly as he probed the sealing structure of the stone gate.

After a moment, he raised his head, his gaze calm:
"This seal requires the combined power of the three of us to break."

Sun Wukong nodded slightly, gently pressing his palm on the surface of the stone door, and the light of his celestial magic began to glow faintly.

Yang Jian stood on the other side, the runes of his three-pointed, double-edged sword turning into a silver light that flowed into the stone gate.

Nezha did not hesitate. The flames of his Fire-Tipped Spear flickered slightly, and his fire-based magic transformed into a blazing pillar of light, striking the seal on the stone gate.
