The simple stone tablet is only one meter long, and is overall grayish to black. There are some mysterious carvings on it, which have long been blurred by the power of time. It is difficult to discern the meaning of those patterns.
The stone tablet was placed on the exhibition stand and would be auctioned in a few days. There were many people surrounding it at the moment, and relevant appraisers were assessing its value.
"It's just a stone tablet from the Later Yan period. Too many stone tablets of this type have been unearthed, and they don't have much value at all." An old man with thick eyes and white hair made this comment.
In the void, Xiao Chen suddenly staggered and almost fell down. Many such stone tablets were unearthed? Is there any mistake? Can a large number of sky tablets be unearthed? This is really amazing.
"Nonsense, this is not the meaningless stone tablet that was unearthed in large numbers during the Later Yan Dynasty." At this moment, another old scholar who looked quite upright put down the magnifying glass in his hand and looked at the white-haired man.
The old man said: "This is obviously a rare treasure. It is conservatively estimated that it has been carved for dozens of years... no, it has been tens of thousands of years."
In fact, he really wanted to say that this stone tablet was hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions of years old, but that would be too amazing. How long is the history of human civilization?
The old man with a white head sneered: "How long is the history we have recorded in writing? You actually said tens of thousands of years, it's really ridiculous..."
At this moment, several experts invited nearby also echoed his words.
"How can it be that it has tens of thousands of years? No matter how you look at it, they are all stone tablets unearthed in large numbers like those from the Later Yan period."
"Yes, even the seller who consigned it to the auction house admitted that it is a stone tablet from the Later Yan period, but the pattern is a bit special, so it was put up for auction."
"Yes, it can barely be considered a treasure, but it is indeed a stone tablet from the Later Yan period."
…
These people all agreed that the tone of voice was almost exactly the same.
"You... are really the scum of our industry!" The rather upright old scholar was furious, pointed at a few people, and said: "There must be a big customer who asked you to lower your evaluation and prepare to buy it at a low price, and compete with
It's really a shame for me to be associated with people like you!" He threw up his sleeves and walked away.
In the void, Xiao Chen watched all this quietly. During these days of living among mortals, he learned a lot with his powerful spiritual consciousness.
The so-called "brick master" and "calling beast" are really ironic, but this is the reality. It is too common for the emperor to use literary slaves and pen masters.
What we see now is just a trivial matter. Even the big monsters like Hydra have learned a lot after recently integrating into mortals. The sale of state-owned assets in this country is really outrageous.
When foreign investment banks rated those assets, many "brick-and-mortar" and "shouting beasts" who had been captured by money raised their flags, and many high-quality assets were sold at low prices.
Of course, it is undeniable that there are experts and professors who still have integrity and integrity.
"Is it really a heavenly monument?" Little Stubborn Dragon asked.
"It's absolutely true." Xiao Chen nodded.
Then, he created something out of thin air, and an identical stone tablet appeared in his palm. With a flash of light, it replaced the real sky tablet placed in the hall.
In silence, Xiao Chen, Little Stubborn Dragon, and Hydra left here and returned to their residence.
Seeing them coming back, Shapolang immediately rushed over and shouted with a mournful face: "Brother, you are finally back. Please unseal my seal quickly. The life of a mortal is really not something that normal people can endure. I can't bear it now."
We are about to reach salvation, and the power of life is passing away quickly..."
"Go and reflect first."
As soon as Xiao Chen pointed it out, this guy was immediately sealed into his room. Then Xiao Chen placed the heavenly monument on the table and observed it carefully.
As powerful as he is, if you don't observe it closely, you will never be able to find this heavenly monument. No wonder no strong person from the other world appeared after it was obtained by a mortal.
Xiao Chen rubbed it with his hand. The pattern on it was very dim and almost completely erased.
"This is not the celestial monument in the Devil's Plain, nor the one suppressed in the Sky Burial Valley, nor the ancient monument in the Yellow River in the past, nor the one suppressing the dead city of Long Island."
If you don't count the seventh monument possessed by the old stone turtle, Xiao Chen has obtained six heavenly monuments before, but he has only seen four of them, and two of them have only been seen in the virtual world.
Shadow is not the real entity, and the two mental methods are seen from the virtual shadow.
"This should be the fifth heavenly monument. I really don't know how it fell into the hands of mortals. Where was it suppressed in the past? It seems necessary to investigate carefully."
"Could this Heavenly Monument have been destroyed? Does it still have the power of the past?" Little Stubborn Dragon asked.
"The Sky Monument has not been destroyed, otherwise it would have been impossible to hide it from us. We have been in Yandu these days, but we have not sensed its aura."
Having said this, Xiao Chen frowned, because now he used his spiritual consciousness to explore the sky monument, but it was difficult to find anything, and the power of his spiritual consciousness disappeared into the body of the monument like a mud cow entering the sea.
"I can't feel its terrifying pressure. On the surface, it looks like an ordinary mortal stone."
Xiao Chen tried several times, and all the divine power he activated was like dew dripping into the desert, being sucked up silently.
"Go to the world of death to experiment."
Xiao Chen made this decision. It was difficult to activate the sky monument in Kyushu and Sifang World. If it was sensed by another world, it would be troublesome.
He has the remains of his ancestor's warship and can easily cross the Great World Barrier, so it is not a waste of effort to carry the little stubborn dragon and the Hydra.
After appearing in the withered world of death, Xiao Chen began to operate the mysterious method of the Heavenly Monument, and the originally non-fluctuating monumental body suddenly began to tremble.
"boom"
The next moment, a violent aura shook the heaven and earth, and the small monument erupted with ocean-like fluctuations, which was breathtaking, frightening, and trembling.
It began to grow rapidly, getting bigger and bigger, like a huge mountain, and the people who were oppressed could not breathe. The area suddenly collapsed, the magma spewed, the magic cloud collapsed, and the stars shook.
This momentum is no different from the Heavenly Monument back then. It can suppress the world and destroy stone people. It is really the most powerful "suppressing" treasure in the world.
"Stop it quickly. If you push it again, it will almost break the sky." Hydra shouted in surprise.
At this moment, the sky monument was soaring, surpassing the mountains and sending into the sky. It became taller and majestic. The top could not be seen at a glance. The aura it exuded made several people present feel a deep depression and a feeling of suffocation.
Xiao Chen stopped the operation of the mysterious method. He felt that all the strength in his body had been drained out. He was exhausted. He hurriedly sat cross-legged in the void and meditated. It was not until a long time later that he fully recovered.
At this time, the sky monument had slowly shrunk to one meter in height, and became simple and ordinary again.
"Why exactly?"
Xiao Chen was puzzled and couldn't figure out why the sky monument had shrunk on its own. In the past, it was very difficult to get close to it, let alone be collected by mortals.
"Is it because it has completed its mission and will fall asleep and no longer show any miracles?"
It was difficult for the three of them to truly understand.
"Is it considered that I have obtained a sky mark now?" Hydra asked.
"You can get it."
Xiao Chen sat cross-legged here, no longer speaking, and started to use the mysterious method of the heavenly stele. Not long after, the ancient patterns engraved on the one-meter-high stone stele seemed to have come to life, and the light became stronger and brighter.
The powerful aura immediately forced the little stubborn dragon and Hydra to retreat into the distance, watching in surprise.
brush
It was as if a picture scroll flew down from the heavenly monument, covering Xiao Chen like a gauze, and quickly sank into his body. Suddenly, there was a very tiny mark of the heavenly monument on his body.
Everything went smoothly, Xiao Chen got the third sky mark, and his energy and energy reached a peak.
When he stood up, there was nothing left on the monument, and all the patterns had disappeared.
This time it was really unexpected. The heavenly monument became Xiao Chen's collection and was successfully put into the acupoint space by him.
"This is too..." Little Stubborn Dragon felt a little speechless. Back then, when the Sky Monument sealed the Dragon Island, he personally experienced the horror of that giant monument, but now it has become a private collection, and the violent aura is no longer revealed.
"If I take the path of the stone man, this sky monument will also be put to great use..." Xiao Chen's eyes were filled with light.
"Do you want to build a divine city with sky monuments?" Hydra was quite shocked. If that were the case, the divine city would probably not be broken into pieces, and they could sit back and relax.
Xiao Chen didn't say anything. He stared into the depths of the Death Continent and said, "Let's go. A strong man is coming. We don't need to fight with him."
The three of them returned to Kyushu and planned to attend the auction three days later to find out all the information about the seller and how he obtained it.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and this time Sha Po Lang also accompanied him, but the seal was still not broken.
Sha Po Lang looked around the streets and kept muttering: "Don't let me see those speedsters, don't let me see that woman again, dare to hit me seven times a day, dare to give me a strange disease, and be caught following me
They're not done yet."
"A few days ago, I met a stupid guy who was jealous of me. He even grabbed me by the collar and said he was my ancestor. As a result, I was hit by a speedster gang seven times a day. I didn't expect that guy was really lucky and he didn't die.
, I really hope to see that guy again and continue to hit him ten or eight times."
Just outside the auction house, three bad boys were walking and laughing, following behind a few middle-aged people, and said these words.
"Nonsense!" A middle-aged man turned around and glared at them fiercely. He was obviously their elder.
Not far away, Sha Po Lang was almost petrified. Seeing those people walking into the auction house, he screamed and said: "I'm sorry, that little brat found someone to bump into me seven times a day, I @
#¥¥#……”
At this moment, two gorgeous women not far away walked towards the auction house.
"I went to Yongle Palace a few days ago and met a silly guy who called himself a wolf. We had a good feeling together at first, but I didn't expect that guy was a pauper and he dared to talk to me like this? I gave him a small lesson.
, before I finally left, I threw a few banknotes to the guy who slept like a dead pig."
"Haha, if you give him money...it's the other way around. You can't hit someone in the face like this."
"Forget it, Mr. Li is waiting for us, let's go in."
Two gorgeous women walked into the auction house, twisting their waists.
At this time, Sha Po Lang's eyes almost burst into flames, and his fists clenched loudly.
Xiao Chen, Little Stubborn Dragon, and Hydra were all dumbfounded. This really made people speechless.
After Sha Po Lang was petrified, he almost went crazy. He gritted his teeth and said: "What the hell... what is this? You can't attack people like this, let me meet you together!"
Xiao Chen and Little Stubborn Dragon ignored him and took the lead to move forward. Hydra came over, patted his shoulder wordlessly, and also moved forward.
The four of them were hidden in the void, quietly watching the auction scene. The atmosphere was very lively, and many antiques were auctioned for sky-high prices.
As for the Tianbei that had been stolen and replaced, the transaction was uneventful, with few people raising placards.
Xiao Chen searched the scene with his powerful spiritual consciousness, and the seller was indeed there, and he quickly got the relevant information from his mind.
"Let's go." Xiao Chen planned to leave here.
"Wait a minute, if you don't help me lift the seal, I'd rather die here!" Sha Po Lang was almost furious. He was staring at the bad boy's luck, and at the same time, he kept yelling at the old man who was leaning against a big belly.
The woman next to him rolled her eyes.
How could Xiao Chen not know what he wanted to do? Thinking of how miserable this guy was being treated by a mortal, he couldn't help but laugh. Then he unsealed him and said, "Enough is enough, don't mess around."
Sha Po Lang gritted his teeth and nodded, casting a spell. The people in the auction house didn't seem to notice that there were two people missing.
"Oh my god, it turns out it's you, you idiot. I'm just looking for you. I haven't had the pleasure of bumping into you yet." The bad boy obviously didn't understand the situation. This is what he said when he saw Sha Po Lang.
Sha Po Lang's face turned green at that moment, and his nose was almost crooked with anger. He lifted the bad boy up into the sky and said, "Don't you like to bump into me? I'll let you bump into him as much as you can!"
Not long after, they arrived at Tianwai. The bad boy was already frightened and said tremblingly: "God, I was wrong, please let me go."
Sha Po Lang directly lit up a halo, covering the delinquent boy, and threw him on a fragment of a meteorite, then kicked him hard, causing him to fly away among a swarm of meteorites.
"Fly freely. If you are still alive in ten years, I will come to pick you up."
"Oh, help me!"
…
Half a quarter of an hour later, Sha Po Lang shook the gorgeous woman awake again, threw her directly on a deserted planet, dropped a pile of diamonds like a mountain, and said: "Just guard this pile of money, take a look.
In ten or eight years, if you haven't turned into a skeleton by then, I will come to pick you up."
In the sky above Jiuzhou, Xiao Chen and the other three were quite speechless. Killing Po Lang would be too damaging.
"Don't cause trouble."
"Don't worry, I injected essence into their bodies, they won't die in a short time." After saying this, Sha Po Lang looked heartbroken and said, "In this magical country, all this is really a tragedy for society and a tragedy for mankind.
"
"roll"
The three of them blasted him away together.
Soon after, Xiao Chen and the others traveled through space and arrived at a mountain village in western Kyushu.
Xiao Chen wanted to find the real owner of the Sky Monument, because it was an antique dealer who took the Sky Monument away from this mountain village.
Compared with cities with many high-rise buildings, the brick and stone houses here are undoubtedly very backward, but they are a little less materialistic and hustle and bustle, and have a little more fragrance of flowers and plants, making people's hearts a little more peaceful.
Arriving in front of a not-so-regular courtyard made of rocks, Xiao Chen stretched out his spiritual sense, preparing to search the memory of the owner of the courtyard to find out everything about the sky monument.
"Squeak"
At this moment, the door of the courtyard was pushed open, and a middle-aged man who looked very honest and simple came out and said: "I really don't have a stone tablet here anymore, there is just this one. I used to use it as a whetstone.
It makes me want to find another piece now."
"Whetstone?!" After hearing these words, Xiao Chen felt a little stunned.
"Eye that breaks delusion!" Xiao Chen shouted, and placed the heavenly monument in the courtyard to match the environment here. Then two golden lights suddenly shot out from his eyes, covering the place. Tracing the long river of history, going back to the source,
He wanted to see how the monument was lost in this place, and wanted to restore everything in the past.
Xiao Chen's body shook violently and his body shook continuously. The history he traced seemed to be beyond his ability and it was difficult to continue.
However, he finally gritted his teeth and persevered.
Broken pictures appeared before his eyes.
Blood rain flew in the sky, and a huge sky monument fell down. At the same time, various broken walls and broken ruins hit the land at the same time.
Xiao Chen felt his body shake, holding the divine map and ancient scroll in his hands, and he continued to trace the long river of history.
The screen went backwards, and an old castle was cracking, leaving endless blood in it.
"boom"
It fell apart and fell, and at the same time an ancient stele fell from the castle.
"Is there a sky monument in the castle?!"
Xiao Chen was shocked and confused, and the castle looked very familiar to him.
Suddenly, he showed a look of shock, and suddenly remembered, wasn't this the castle of death that once appeared above Long Island? In the past, it shook endless storms and stirred up huge waves.
"The Eye of Deception, go up against the long river of time!" Xiao Chen shouted again.
The divine pictures and ancient scrolls shone brightly in his hands, and at the same time, the holy tree with nine divine leaves also appeared above his head, pouring down thousands of divine lights to help him.
The picture emerged again, quickly moving up the river of time.
The castle really came from above Dragon Island, and this time I even saw a few skinny humanoid creatures wandering in front of the gate of the castle.
"Destroy the illusion and restore the true past!"
Xiao Chen shouted loudly. At this time, three sky marks appeared, and he began to use more power to go against the long river of time.
"Um?!"
Xiao Chen was surprised again. The ancient castle did not belong to Dragon Island, but appeared above the Sky Burial Valley the next moment.
“Continue to go against the source!”
He gritted his teeth, and another picture emerged, with the castle appearing in the sky above Devil's Plain.
At this moment, Xiao Chen's whole body was filled with brilliance, as if a divine flame was burning. As he explored the secrets of the monument and the castle, he encountered great resistance and pushed him to the limit of his potential.
brush
The picture flashed, and the old castle appeared above the Yellow River. Dark clouds rolled and the Yellow River water surged. At this moment, Xiao Chen couldn't hold on any longer, and the golden light in his eyes quickly dimmed.
"The ancient castle does not belong to Dragon Island. Wherever there is a sky monument, its traces have appeared, and there is also a stone tablet in the castle..."
Xiao Chen felt quite surprised. All this was too mysterious. What secrets did the castle hide? Why did it appear above almost all the sky monuments?
"What's wrong?" Little Stubborn Dragon asked.
"Dig the ground, dig the ground three hundred feet!" Xiao Chen made a low voice and said: "There is a fallen castle in this vast underground area, which has a great connection with the sky monument!"
