There is no one at the entrance of the village, and there are no signs of human activity in the village.
Although the water beside the village is still gurgling continuously, under the signs of vitality, there is an emptiness and silence.
Chen Fan walked into the village. On the site behind the village, a building that looked like a family temple stood beside the river. The sound of water and wind around him was gentle and quiet.
Further away, there was a vast expanse of white, especially on the other side of the river, where only a continuous highland could be seen.
When Chen Fan wanted to take a closer look, the fog on the other side of the river became thicker, making it impossible for Chen Fan to see clearly.
Two soul shadows were released and planned to cross the river.
But the moment the soul shadow stepped into the river, Chen Fan felt that he had lost contact with the soul body.
Chen Fan did not dare to risk the remaining soul body.
Staring at the other side with stern eyes.
The river was only a dozen meters wide, but the feeling of falling into another space came over again, and Chen Fan suddenly understood that the space he was in was probably only as large as this village.
Chen Fan walked around the village several times, but no matter how he searched, he didn't see any living things.
The water flows and the wind blows, but there is no living creature.
The barking of dogs and the crowing of chickens that I heard before were more like an illusion.
Chen Fan pushed open the door of a courtyard. In the courtyard, there were two thatched houses and a thatched shed. In the water tank of the thatched shed, there was clean and clear river water. Following Chen Fan's footsteps, slightly trembling ripples spread.
The extremely deserted village made Chen Fan suddenly feel cold all over.
It was as if I was being watched closely by a pair of eyes hidden behind the scenes.
Chen Fan suddenly looked up. There were not many clouds in the sky, but signs of slow movement could still be seen in the clouds floating in the wind.
Just when Chen Fan reached out to touch the water tank in front of him, the water tank in front of him, together with the straw shed, were like bubbles. The data collapsed and disappeared without a trace.
Instead, there was ruin.
Seeing the sudden change in the scene in front of him, Chen Fan's expression instantly became alert.
Looking around, the surrounding courtyard walls, the streets in the distance, and other residents' houses have all disappeared.
Instead, there was ruins.
The water tank filled with clean water just now still exists, but it is filled with dust, and the straw shed on the water tank has long since decayed as if it were nothing.
Only the surrounding houses and courtyard walls still retain some traces of the original time.
call!
A gust of wind blew up, and the ruins that had long been reduced to dust were blown away.
Chen Fan was the only one standing there, waiting for the wind to stop and the dust to settle.
After a long time, Chen Fan was the only one left standing in the ruins of the village. Apart from Chen Fan, only the family temple-like building at the back of the village still vaguely survived.
Chen Fan stepped over.
The wall of the family temple has collapsed, and a stone tablet stands among the ruins of the family temple.
There is no writing on the stone tablet that is more than one foot high. There is no word on the tablet.
The river behind the family temple no longer had crystal clear water at this time. Instead, there was a vein of black water, as black as ink, and faintly exuding a strong fishy smell.
Is this the comparison between the village before and after its decline?
Chen Fan's heart moved slightly. Everything he saw in this space seemed to have hidden mysteries.
Especially this wordless monument, this was not the first time Chen Fan had seen it.
It's just that the stele is taller and larger than the ones I've seen before, especially the wordless stele. Although there are no writings engraved on it, there are still some traces of texture.
There are no words on the stele, but traces that can be carved are still there.
Chen Fan stepped forward and reached out to touch the texture on the wordless tablet.
As soon as Chen Fan's fingers touched the cloud-like carving marks, an inexplicable aura was released from the stone tablet.
Wow!
The surrounding scenery changed again. The original villages were gone, and the river no longer existed. In front of Chen Fan's eyes, in addition to this lonely stone tablet, a circle of tall stone walls appeared around it.
Only then did Chen Fan realize that he was already in a sealed stone room.
"Is anyone there?"
"Who's causing trouble here?"
"Senior, my Excellency, Chen Fan, has come here without any objection. I would like to ask senior to show up!"
Chen Fan did not dare to underestimate the sudden appearance of this secret room. These things were definitely arranged by the once glorious ancient sect.
Who dares to say that there won’t be any strong sects from that time surviving here.
But no matter how Chen Fan called, there was no response.
Knowing that no one responded, Chen Fan could only calm down and slowly study the stone tablet.
Just because there are no writings on the wordless stone tablet does not mean that there are no clues on it.
The stone monument at this time was much smaller than when it was by the river just now. It was only as tall as a person. Chen Fan stretched out his hand on the stone monument and kept rubbing it, trying to figure out every texture on the stone monument.
When Chen Fan's fingers touched a raised hollow texture on the top of the stone tablet, Chen Fan found that the touch here seemed to be a little different from other places.
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the pattern of this texture carefully.
When he saw the pattern of this texture clearly, Chen Fan's expression suddenly changed. This is it!
It's actually a texture I've seen in the Book of Heaven.
Chen Fan recalled that the texture on the scroll in his hand was very similar to the one on the stone tablet in front of him.
Chen Fan took a deep breath.
He pressed his palms towards the stone tablet.
boom!
The stone tablet shattered, and inside the stone tablet, a piece of gold foil was exposed.
Different from the gold foil Chen Fan discovered before, the area of this gold foil is much larger than what he saw before.
Wow!
Before Chen Fan could react, golden light shone on the gold foil, enveloping Chen Fan.
Chen Fan, who was shrouded in golden light, also had a layer of golden light on his body.
In addition, the gold foil suddenly flashed, shrunk to the size of a palm, and fell into Chen Fan's hand.
Chen Fan couldn't understand the textures and symbols on it at all, but he had a mysterious and mysterious feeling. What was recorded on this piece of gold foil was the content of half a volume of the heavenly book.
Cangyang Palace!
Since this sect in the ancient land is called Cangyang Palace, could it be said that this sect is not a local sect in Tianxuan Continent?
When Chen Fan was thinking wildly, he suddenly sighed.
well!
The voice is old and deep.
"who?"
Chen Fan turned around and looked around, but didn't see anyone.
"Who's playing tricks here? Come out!"
Chen Fan stood firm and made preparations for defense.
"Boy, if you can be recognized by the Wordless Monument, you are obviously of the same lineage as my Cangyang Palace, and at least you are someone who has no hostility towards us!"
As this old voice sounded, an old man with white beard and hair appeared in front of Chen Fan.
