Chapter 18 The Tomb of the Military God, "Predicting the Enemy"

[The main hall was dark, yet you could still see. Looking up, you saw a plaque hanging high above the bronze door, engraved with four ancient characters.]

[The Tomb of the God of War.]

"Is this the tomb of the God of War? What level of existence is the God of War?"

Seeing the character for "immortal" greatly shocked you. Could it be that immortals truly exist in this world?

Pang Hai and Xu Hui gazed at the towering bronze gate, its surface adorned with intricate patterns.

"It looks like a door, it's so big, how do you open it?"

Pang Hai scratched his head, placed his hand on the bronze door, and tried to push it.

[A casual movement, yet unexpectedly, the bronze door reacted with a thunderous boom, the deep, metallic clang sending chills down one's spine.]

Pang Hai and Xu Hui huddled together, trembling, and backed away, their eyes wide as they stared at the crack in the bronze door.

[Compared to the overall structure, the gap is so small as to be almost imperceptible, but large enough for a person to enter.]

The two exchanged a glance, seeing no sign of retreat or fear in each other's eyes, then burst into laughter and entered side by side.

[You observe from behind; the two, barely ten years old, display a composure that remains unchanged even in the face of such a dramatic turn of events.]

[The two entered, and without hesitation, you unleashed your speed and immediately followed.]

[After passing through the bronze gate, you suddenly lose sight of everything, then your vision returns in an instant, and you witness a breathtaking scene.]

If one were to be in the universe, the surrounding stars would converge to form the Milky Way, encircling the entire sky.

Pang Hai and Xu Hui, floating in the air, saw your figure and asked in surprise and confusion, "Brother from the tofu stall? What are you doing here?"

"I was cultivating in the mountains when I came across this place and stumbled upon it by chance."

The two didn't think much of it, nor did they suspect you were deliberately following them. After all, you were an orphan; what could you possibly have to covet?

"Where is this place?"

Pang Hai, however, remained calm and instead admired the vast starry sky around him with great interest, marveling at the magnificent sight.

"The Tomb of the God of War."

[You said in a deep voice, and then you saw the Milky Way intertwine and change, the stars move, and then nine enormous reliefs covering the galaxy appeared.]

"What is that?!"

Even the usually composed Xu Hui couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Looking at the nine reliefs, you feel they contain the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, the mysteries of all things, and even a pure and extreme way of killing, which almost freezes your soul.

Once you've recovered from the influence, look at Pang Hai and Xu Hui. You'll find them both seemingly engrossed in contemplation, their expressions serene and tranquil, emanating a profound aura.

"Has he already had an epiphany?"

You think to yourself, "Truly a genius! A chance encounter leads to immediate enlightenment."

Soon, you'll discover that Pang Hai and Xu Hui each correspond to three reliefs for contemplation.

You look at the remaining three paintings, but none of them resonate with you in any particular way.

"Why do those two paintings look so blurry and unreal?"

[Observe the nine reliefs arranged in order. The middle six were deciphered by Pang Hai and Xu Hui, while the last two have a kind of ethereal and dreamlike quality.]

No matter how you look at it, you can't see it clearly.

[While the first relief also lacks resonance, the engravings are still clearly visible.]

"Never mind, I'll just write this down first!"

By maximizing your "extensive knowledge and excellent memory," enhancing your observation skills with the help of the "information master," and combining this with persistent effort, you will surely reap the rewards.

[Gradually, I sank into a vast and boundless mystery.]

After you finished memorizing the inscription on the relief, you tried to understand it, but soon the landscape before you changed.

You stand before the stone wall, with Pang Hai and Xu Hui beside you.

Forget the reliefs, the starry sky, the bronze door; even the initial crack through which we entered has vanished.

If it weren't for the vast amount of information in your mind, you would have thought it was all a hallucination.

"Where did it go?"

Pang Hai casually scratched his head, while Xu Hui remained calm, displaying an even more rational and clear-headed demeanor than before.

[You exchange information with the two individuals, learning that each of them resonated with three reliefs before entering a state of enlightenment. After achieving this enlightenment, they appeared here.]

[Therefore, this mysterious tomb of the military genius is most likely an opportunity tailor-made for the two of them; once they finished comprehending it, it immediately disappeared.]

[You formed a guess in your mind, but fortunately, you didn't obsessively try to understand it. Instead, you memorized it first, remembering the details of the first relief sculpture and comparing it dozens of times to ensure there were no mistakes.]

"I have gained insights from three concepts: annihilating the enemy, not attacking, and a swift victory."

Pang Hai did not hide anything and revealed what he had gained.

"I am a strategist, a master of deception, and a practitioner of the Way."

[After they finished speaking, they looked at you.]

You review the memories in your mind; although you don't fully understand them, you roughly know what the content describes.

"I remembered the first one: anticipating the enemy."

"Huh? There's only one?"

[Pang Hai waited a while, and seeing that you didn't continue, he asked in surprise.]

[The same applies to Xu Hui; of the nine paintings, they each painted three, and I originally thought you would understand the remaining three.]

You smiled and shook your head: "My comprehension is low. Even the first picture was learned by rote memorization, and I haven't even grasped the basics yet."

Upon hearing this, Pang Hai waved his hand generously and laughed, "It's alright, I can teach you."

"I can't teach him."

[Xu Hui said calmly.]

【"kindness?"】

Upon hearing this, Pang Hai's first reaction was not to doubt or question, but to investigate himself and discover that he indeed could not teach it.

You tried to recall and describe the patterns and mysteries engraved in the first image, but found you couldn't.

[It seems to be a restriction imposed by the "Tomb of the God of War," preventing you from spreading it without permission.]

[You followed Pang Hai and Xu Hui and finally deciphered the origin of their destiny. Although you only remembered one relief sculpture, you were not dissatisfied.]

The legacy of this "Tomb of the God of War" was clearly prepared for Pang Hai and Xu Hui; you've already gained a great deal by managing to acquire even one piece.

[Then, Pang Hai and Xu Hui encountered a traveling military strategist who taught them military tactics and methods of cultivation.]

This "coincidence" only reinforces your belief that an unseen force is manipulating the life trajectories of Pang Hai and Xu Hui behind the scenes.

[This gradually pushes the two towards the fate of rising up in rebellion, establishing a kingdom, and becoming kings.]

[In the time that followed, Pang Hai and Xu Hui studied under this strategist, comprehending their respective three diagrams, and transforming themselves daily from ordinary people with no cultivation.]

[You personally witnessed them complete Body Tempering in three days, break through to the Grand Qi Realm in six days, and achieve Divine Observation Perfection in ten days.]

In just one month, he went from an ordinary person with no foundation in cultivation to directly entering the fourth realm of the Innate Stage.

This is the terrifying power of combining top-tier talent and inherited skills.

[In comparison, your progress in comprehending the "Enemy" relief is slow; you even feel that without the "persistence" buff, you might not be able to progress at all.]

You remained unfazed and steadfast, maintaining your own pace.

[At the same time, he imparted his martial arts experience and knowledge to Pang Hai and Xu Hui as an investment in their relationship.]

After all, it won't be long before they stand at the pinnacle of power and martial arts in the world.
