Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2284 (Two Thousand Two Hundred and Eighty-Four) Square Pit

Although the light was very strong, it did not cause any discomfort to the eyes.

Li Pingrun continued to do this, and the smooth road extended in two directions at the same time, becoming longer and longer. When it extended to a certain extent, it turned straight.

Soon, the smooth, slightly concave road drew a square frame emitting yellow light on the ground.

Li Pingrun touched the tips of his index fingers together, pointed both index fingers at the center of the area enclosed by the square frame, and then moved both hands upwards at the same time.

The part framed by the square broke away from the surrounding ground and slowly rose upwards, reaching a position about one foot below the ground.

Li Pingrun spread out the tips of his index fingers, pointed his right index finger to the right, spread out the five fingers of his left hand, and pushed with his palm facing to the right.

At this time, the part of the material that had previously been separated from the surrounding ground moved to the right.

Li Pingrun touched the tips of his thumbs together, stretched out both hands with palms facing down, and moved both hands downward at the same time.

The part of the material that was moved to the upper part of the open space on the right fell on the open space.

The square frame that was glowing yellow before no longer glowed, and there was now a square pit inside the frame.

Li Pingrun placed his hands on his legs, closed his eyes again and chanted a spell.

He stopped chanting the spell when he opened his eyes. Li Pingrun finished the ritual and stood up.

Li Pingrun told Tie Wandao and Tie Jinjue that he had completed the ritual, and now they could see what was in the pit by shining a candle.

Tie Jinjue immediately shone the candle towards the square pit. The moment he saw what was inside, his heart was filled with waves.

After so many years, on this day when he was not far from his death, he saw his mother's relics. Although those things were in the pit and he could not see them clearly, he seemed to see his mother and was filled with emotion.

However, despite the turmoil in his heart, the expression on his face did not make people feel that there was anything unusual.

He had long been accustomed to controlling his facial expressions, and at this moment his expression merely showed that he was seeing these things for the first time and was feeling a little bit of novelty.

He knew that when he used the candle to illuminate the remains of the suicide, both Tie Wandao and Li Pingrun would focus on those remains. He knew that they would not pay attention to his expression at all. However, he had something on his mind, which made him think it was particularly necessary for him to control his expression.

Tie Jinjue, who was in a state of emotional upheaval, heard Tie Wandao ask Li Pingrun: "Didn't they say that being too bright would have an impact? You only dared to light one candle. The light from the box just now was so strong, wouldn't there be any problem?"

Li Pingrun said, "Please rest assured, clan leader. There will be no problem. That strong light is produced by magic, which is completely different from the light of a candle. The strong light produced by magic will not cause any impact at all."

Tie Wandao looked into the square pit. Under the light of a candle, he couldn't see clearly. He said to Li Pingrun, "Are these the remains of the person who committed suicide?"

"Yes, Patriarch." Li Pingrun said.

"Are you going to perform some magic on the things in this pit?" Tie Wandao asked.

"Yes, I must perform the ritual while looking at the remains of the person who committed suicide." Li Pingrun replied.

"Watch them perform the ritual. Will they come up on their own then?" Tie Wandao continued to ask.

"Yes, they will come out in a while." Li Pingrun said.
