Chapter 2031: Within the Tombstone

one myself" Old Turtle turned his head and yelled, "You need to know that I'm older than you and my energy is quite limited!"After being scolded by Old Turtle, Fang Yu could only smile awkwardly. 。Lea...After crossing the barrier of the teleportation array and flying for a while longer, one could gradually feel a powerful oppressive force. 。The ancient tomb of the Sword Sect should be just ahead. 。Fang Yu and Ye Ge slowed their pace, descending from the sky, and began to walk forward. 。The ground was a desolate expanse of withered yellow, and the sky hung heavy with a sickly pallor, casting an oppressive gloom over all. 。Without having truly seen the ancient tomb of the Sword Sect, one can still vaguely sense what happened here. 。A supremely powerful sect was destroyed overnight, leaving behind countless tombstones. 。What exactly happened that night Are those the remains of the deceased Jianzong cultivators under the tombstones

No one knows. 。After the incident at Jianzong, even if someone dared to enter the ancient tomb, no one could leave. 。Most cultivators only dared to watch from afar, not even daring to release their divine sense for fear of backlash. 。The mystery of the ancient Jianzong tomb has never been solved. 。"You said that Lin Batian broke into so many forbidden areas back then, why didn't he come here to try it" Fang Yu asked in doubt. 。"The Overlord Saint likely... hasn't had time yet." 。"Ye Ge's tone was laced with regret." 。Fan Yu turned his head to look at Ye Ge and asked, "What do you think...Lin Ba Tian's sudden disappearance... is because of"Ye Ge's eyes flickered, and he replied, "At that time, the Heavenly Domination Saint Venerable was already invincible in the world. Someone powerful enough to force him to disappear... must have come from a power outside of Great Heaven Star. But what exactly it is... I can't say for sure." 。Outside the power of Big Dipper Star...Fang Yu recalled his experiences on Earth. 。The Sacred Will directly descended to Earth across dimensions, even the dimensional laws dared not impede it. 。If he hadn't held up under pressure, the entire Earth would have been crushed. 。

Later, when people talk about Earth... they might also mention the time when Earth "suddenly disappeared." 。Therefore, Fang Yu believed that Lin Batian must not have disappeared suddenly at the time. 。Before he left, something must have happened. 。

Perhaps there was a great battle. 。The shattered, bisected Mount Shengyun and the spatial rifts in the sky... were all that remained of that battle. 。But if you think about it, Lin Batian's situation might be worse than we imagined. 。Because, if there were a war, then Lin Batian would inevitably be the losing side. 。Otherwise, he won't just disappear. 。But considering what Lin Xinyin said before he died, it seems that Lin Bateng knew he would lose... He even specially explained some things to Lin Xinyin in advance. 。

Fang Yu's eyes flickered and he stopped. 。Ye Ge said that in the ancient tomb of Jianzong, it might be possible to figure out why Lin Batian disappeared back then. 。And now, the ancient tomb of Jianzong... is right before our eyes. 。From Fang Yu and Ye Ge's perspective, the outline of the Jianzong ancient tomb was already very clear. 。Looking around, you can see tombstones everywhere. 。The tombstones were made of grayish-white stone, of varying heights and arranged in a completely haphazard manner. 。And these tombstones are situated on a gentle slope. 。Some of the Jianzong's buildings still exist, but they are dilapidated and covered in the traces of time. 。In contrast to those tombstones, which showed no signs of having stood for many years, seemed almost newly erected. 。These tombstones also bear some inscriptions. 。Fang Yu glanced roughly, he could directly see the tombstones...at least over 20,000 pieces. 。

While behind the slope, still belonging to the domain of Taigu Jianzong, there must be many more tombstones. 。There are quite a few disciples of the Jianzong. 。 。Yes, legend has it that the Sword Sect was the most powerful sect in ancient times, known as the number one sect of the ancient era. 。"Ye Ge stared at the many tombstones in front of him, his eyes also flickering with a look of shock. "It is precisely because of this that they became like this overnight... it will be so legendary." 。。Fang Yu said, "This Jianzong is quite large, at least twice the size of Yuhua Gate. We'll need to spend some time here." 。"Ye Ge nodded. " 。

The two walked forward together, entering the territory of the Sword Sect. 。

In the process, one could clearly feel the atmosphere growing increasingly oppressive. 。Even the sky was changing, turning a dull yellow with a faint blush of crimson, like blood hidden beneath the skin. 。

The two walked before two arch-shaped stones. 。It seems this is the gate to the Sword Sect. 。

Go deeper from here, the way is lined with tombstones. 。The two stopped in front of a recent gravestone. 。This tombstone is about half a meter high, gray-white in color, with a vertical character carved on it. 。This character looks like ancient script from the celestial beings on Big Dipper Star. Fang Yu didn't recognize it, so he turned to Ye Ge, the indigenous expert, > 。However, Ye Ge also frowned, apparently not recognizing... 。"Oh, it seems we both can't read." 。"Fang Yu said" 。"Actually, I read an ancient book before. The words in it were very similar to these...I seem to be able to recognize a little bit..." 。Night Song said 。"Oh Then what is inscribed on this Tell me." 。Fang Yu asked 。Ye Ge stared at the words on the tombstone, hesitantly said: "Outer Sect... Gong... It feels like a normal tombstone. The words engraved on it are just the names of the deceased and their identities within the Sword Sect"

"That's how it is... Then take a look at the second tombstone" 。"Fang Yu said" 。Ye Ge walked two steps forward and looked at the second tombstone. 。

"Outer Gate... Chen Yuan..." Ye Ge narrowed his eyes, reading out a few words. 。"It seems that way indeed." 。Fang Yu cupped his chin and gazed into the depths of Jianzong. 。On so many tombstones, carved are their names, along with their identities within the sect. 。

This is a normal tombstone. 。But... who erected it

Could it be that not everyone in the Sword Sect died overnight

Even if they didn't all die, it would be difficult to erect tens of thousands of tombstones in a single night, right

Fang Yu frowned slightly, reaching out and pressing his hand against the tombstone before him, carefully feeling its texture. 。The tombstone's surface was very cold and extremely hard. 。

This is definitely no ordinary stone. 。"By the way, how many years ago was the ancient period you were talking about" Fang Yu looked at Ye Ge and asked. 。"Generally speaking, the ancient times refer to the period before 50,000 years ago, while the prehistoric times might be as far back as 100,000 years ago... As for when the Sword Sect existed, there is no accurate statement." 。Ye Ge replied. 。"Ten thousand years... The tombstone didn't even have a trace of wear and tear, but the other buildings inside the Sword Sect were almost worn flat. " 。Fang Yu looked around and said: 。That's right. 。"Ye Ge's eyes narrowed slightly as he said, "Fang Sect Leader, is there some kind of magical energy within this tomb"

"I didn't sense any magical energy, but there is indeed something unusual inside the tombstone." 。"Fang Yu looked at the tombstone in front of him, narrowed his eyes and said, "And its material must also be special, not ordinary stone." 。"What's unusual about the tombstone" Ye Ge narrowed his eyes, asked. 。Well, that's hard to say. 。"Fang Yu turned his head and glanced at Ye Ge, saying, "To figure out the structure inside, we need to break open a tombstone and take a look." 。 hf;ve up that holy artifact... But he really wasn't willing to.If one could obtain that artifact, the chance of ascending to immortality... would increase by at least tenfold!This is a once-in-a-lifetime...
