Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

"Such a huge palace, the original Dragon Lord just gave up on it like that... If it were me, I would be heartbroken for at least several weeks."

Dan Heng said regretfully:

"For Chiming, this sacrifice is probably unavoidable..."

Soon, the group arrived at an open space.

It wasn't exactly spacious; several short bronze pillars stood in front of them, with green will-o'-the-wisps flickering on them.

"This is one of the three claws of the so-called 'Kowtowing and Blessing.' By breaking the seal here, one can take another step towards the Profound Root."

March scratched his head:

"The so-called seal refers to these strangely shaped stone lamps?"

"Mm." Dan Heng nodded gently.

"I vaguely remember that we need to touch the stone lamps one by one to reverse the seal here."

"Oh, then go ahead."

"..."

Dan Heng stepped forward alone and began to move the bronze stone lamps that bore the marks of time.

Other people...

I was watching from behind.

"..."

After bending over and finally fixing a stone lantern, Dan Heng suddenly turned around and tentatively asked:

"Um...isn't anyone willing to help?"

"No, I hate solving puzzles the most." March 7th held a rice cake in her hands and took a bite:

"Aren't you the Dragon Lord? A small mechanism shouldn't be a problem for you."

"..."

"Ok."

Laborer Danheng straightened up, dusted off his hands, and continued walking towards the next stone lamp.

Walter and March 7th silently watched his busy figure.

Yan Huan and Jing Yuan, who were further behind, sat on a stone step, drinking tea and chatting idly.

"Brother Yan Huan, Luo Fu really owes a great debt to you this time." Jing Yuan took a sip of tea and smiled slightly.

"You're welcome, you're welcome. I wasn't really that helpful anyway, hahaha." Yan, sitting next to Jing Yuan, waved his hand very modestly.

"On the contrary, it's because you, General Luofu, are so competent. You actually managed to hold off the Doomsday Beasts that even we couldn't completely kill with just a few waves of Cloud Cavalry. You're truly amazing!"

"Hahaha—not at all! Just lucky!"

Jing Yuan put his hand on Yan Huan's shoulder, filled with righteous indignation: "Alas, this antimatter legion is truly omnipresent. After this incident, Jing Yuan guarantees that the Immortal Ship Alliance will definitely designate them as mortal enemies and never let them live under the same sky."

Yan nodded repeatedly, slapping Jing Yuan's hand down as he agreed:

"Yes, they're all beasts. Who knows how many people they've killed and how many planets they've destroyed in the universe since they were born? What's the difference between them and a malignant tumor?"

"There's no difference." Jing Yuan wholeheartedly agreed.

"Destruction is the only way forward, and all we can do is try our best to fight against it."

Yan pursed his lips and frowned, saying:

"But how can we fight back? You already know where the God of Destruction is, right? What's the next step?"

Upon hearing this, Jing Yuan's smile froze.

Immediately, he said with a hint of distress:

"Well...this is it."

"The Emperor Bow Master is not in Luofu now. Before the Ancestor of Extinction, we are nothing but insignificant ants."

"Even I would be a little worried if I encountered something so absurd... haha."

"Hahahahaha."

The atmosphere grew increasingly awkward amidst their awkward laughter.

Finally, it was interrupted by the arrival of March 7th.

"By the way, General, you must have heard about Miss Tingyun's matter, right?"

Seeing March 7th's anxious expression, Jing Yuan nodded slightly, trying his best to maintain a smile:

"I received a report from Fu Qing. Huanlong is deeply entrenched and has been scheming for a long time, making him truly difficult to guard against."

"The Cloud Riders will conduct an investigation afterward. The most urgent task is to thwart Huanlong's scheme."

"Oh……"

March 7th nodded slightly, seemingly dissatisfied with this answer she was tired of hearing.

Even now, she still thinks about Tingyun.

As the first person the train crew met on the fairy ship, March 7th found it hard to accept the fact that she was Huanlong.

She preferred to believe that the person who initially ferryed them was the real Tingyun, but was switched out midway through the journey.

Perhaps the real Tingyun is waiting for them to rescue her somewhere on the Immortal Ship.

"Friend, you seem a little sleepy." Yan pulled a pillow from his pocket.

"Why don't you take a nap here? Danheng is so slow, it'll probably be a while before he finishes working on all the mechanisms. Taking a nap here shouldn't be a problem!"

"Ptooey, who wants to take a nap!"

March 7th, arms crossed, said unhappily:

"It's fine for you to sleep, since you're completely useless now. It's best for you to just laze around and take a nap. You might even get a 'Lazy System' and collect rewards while lying down!"

"Holy crap?!" Yan raised an eyebrow.

"Are you really a genius?"

Chapter 311 Good grief, what do you mean by this?

at last.

The first seal has been completely broken.

Danheng patted his mud-stained robe and finally breathed a sigh of relief:

"It's ready."

Walter, who had been watching him intently, smiled and said:

"Danheng, you've worked hard."

"It should."

Immediately, Dan Heng said to the three people chatting behind him, "Gentlemen, we should head to the next sealing location."

……

The second sealing location is in a mural gallery.

Danheng stood in front of those stone lanterns, but this time he was stunned.

Seeing his expression, Jing Yuan couldn't help but ask:

"What's wrong, old friend? You seem to have no clue about the seal..."

"My memory of how to break the seal here is a bit hazy; I can't quite recall it," Dan Heng frowned.

"..."

Walter gazed at the surrounding murals and said calmly, "Why don't you take a look at these murals? An adventurer's intuition tells me that the way to break the seal is hidden among them."

"Wow, Uncle Yang is definitely a seasoned puzzle player!"

Following Walter's advice, Danheng silently walked to the mural and looked up at the patterns on it.

On this mural, a baby is depicted being born from a lotus flower.

"The remaining egg of the Bright One, bathed in moonlight and radiance. The ancient sea, vast and boundless, is reborn from the moonlight." Dan Heng said in a deep voice:

"The pattern in this painting should represent the beginning of the birth of the Vidyadhara clan's egg in the ancient Boyue Sea, and their rebirth as humans."

Looking at the mural on March 7th, he commented, "This mural is quite interesting...it seems completely unaffected by the ravages of time."

Yan Huan stroked her chin:

"This mural should be connected to the other murals around it. I'm guessing it tells the story of the reincarnation of the Vidyadhara clan."

Danheng nodded:

“They were born from the sea in ancient times, and then returned to the ancient sea as eggs.”

Yan Huan continued:

"Therefore, I guess the order in which the stone lamps are turned on should be based on the childhood, adolescence, adulthood, and old age depicted in the murals."

"Mm." Dan Heng nodded again.

Mr. Yan immediately sat down:

"Alright, I've finished sorting it out for you. Go get the stone lantern."

"..."

Dan Heng asked:

"So... is there anyone who wants to help?"

"No," March 7th and Yan Huan answered in unison.

"..."
