Chapter 42: Understanding the Stone Tablet
As Lin Feng explained the whole thing in detail on the map, everyone present fell silent, and they could hear every breath quietly!
I have to say that this time the challenge is something that everyone doesn't want to face, but what they have to face, life and death are in an instant, if you don't do, you are destined to perish, and if you try, there may be a glimmer of hope.
"Those old guys from the Four Great Families and the Town Lord's Mansion are just like me, they have been waiting for decades to break through to the Martial King, and no one will be willing to give up this time. Lin Tianba's old but majestic voice echoed throughout the council hall, suddenly making the atmosphere even more tense.
"I am willing to go to the soup for the Lin family and compete for opportunities. The Great Elder who had not spoken all this time finally made his statement first, and his expression was also very solemn, or he would have fallen in the graveyard of the Martial Emperor.
As soon as the Great Elder spoke, the other elders nodded in agreement, and Lin Feng couldn't help but gasp slightly, no matter what time the elder group was the bottom of the family's box.
"This time, our first task is to seize the Martial King Dan, and on this basis, we will compete for other treasures, and what we need to do now is to win over the forces. Lin Feng looked around the next week, and his eyes were finally locked on Lin Tianba, at this level of strength, it was natural that someone with stronger strength was needed to speak.
"The old man usually doesn't like to manage family affairs, this time I will arrange it in two sentences, first of all, this time the battle for the gold source mine is doing well, and I will try to win over the people of the Zhang family, and I will take the initiative to win over the people of the town lord's mansion. Also, find a way to get Carl Auction House to befriend us. Lin Tianba looked at the sky outside the window with deep eyes, although he hadn't been out of the Lin family for a long time, he was clear about the news from the outside world.
Lin Tianba's breath without opinion made Lin Chen feel that his grandfather had reached the point where he had to break through the Martial King, and unlike his father Lin Feng, although the family patriarch of this generation was also a great martial artist, the strongest was only the middle level.
Many people may wonder why Lin Tianba is still a great martial artist after cultivating for most of his life, and Lin Feng has only been cultivating for decades and is also a great martial artist, in fact, in the final analysis, it is too difficult for the cultivation of a great martial artist, and it is even more difficult to break through the martial king, and it is not unusual for such a realm to trap a cultivator with no talent for decades.
At present, the peak of the Great Martial Master can already be said to be the top powerhouse in Qinghe Town, but the elders who come out of the four courtyards to recruit any recruit are all martial kings, which is the gap between resources and geography.
"Grandpa has reached the realm of accumulation and development, and the younger generation will definitely do his best to seize the resources of the Martial King. ”
I saw Lin Chen get up and salute Lin Tianba and the others present in turn.
Seeing Lin Chen like this, everyone in the council hall smiled, and Lin Chen, who had undergone earth-shaking changes, might really be able to get out of this peaceful corner of Qinghe Town.
"I'll communicate with the Zhang family, but it's not a big problem. But Carl's auction house is not necessarily......" Saying this, Lin Feng suddenly froze, his brows furrowed slightly, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
It's true, the Karl Auction House is a force in the imperial capital, and it will not easily make friends with any local forces!
"Father, I'll be in charge of the auction house, and I'll probably have to study alone in twenty days. After the details of the matter were implemented, Lin Chen finally confidently took over the problem of Carl Auction House.
In fact, this is not Lin Chen's self-confidence, but Zi's self-confidence. As long as there is a sufficiently high-quality pill, no auction house will choose to cooperate.
Just as everyone was about to leave, Lin Tianba stopped Lin Chen and took him to the Lin family's ancestral land.
In the blink of an eye, the grandfather and grandson came to the ancestral land of the Lin family that Lin Tianba had been guarding, and Lin Chen also had some expectations for this place he had never been to.
Pushing open the door, a smell of rotten wood came to my nose, and I saw some rotten furniture placed everywhere, and the drowsiness of the sky was also floating around.
Lin Chen looked at Lin Tianba's room with some disgust, as if muttering in his heart, I don't understand that this old man survived?
Lin Tianba on the side seemed to know what Lin Chen was thinking, and a slap directly hit Lin Chen's head, and this crisp voice directly made Lin Chen's back cold.
I saw Lin Tianba open another door in his room and said to Lin Chen behind him: "Go in, remember not to touch anything without my permission." ”
As the old man entered, Lin Chen's feeling found a new change, the dust and clutter just now disappeared, and with it came the simple and solemn ancestral land.
"Three prostrations to the ancestors. After hearing his grandfather's words, Lin Chen knelt very obediently in front of the ancestral hall.
One kowtow!
Two kowtows!
Three prostrations!
Respectful etiquette has always been the basic requirement of the Lin family for juniors, even if it is casual, Lin Chen agrees with this from the bottom of his heart.
After that, Lin Chen was taken to a stone stele, only to see that the stone stele was engraved with dense symbols, but it was not a peer script on this continent, which was really incomprehensible.
Just when Lin Chen wanted to use the source qi to perceive, he was stopped by Lin Tianba: "Why are you in a hurry? If you perceive it directly, it may turn you into an idiot." ”
After saying that, Lin Tianba still looked at Lin Chen with a contemptuous expression, but he didn't know that when he saw this stone tablet for the first time, he was even more impatient than Lin Chen.
"Grandpa, what the hell is this?" At this time, Lin Chen's heart was full of great doubts, and his soul sent a voice to Zi, who told him that this stone tablet was not something she could understand.
"This is something that has been passed down from generation to generation by our Lin family, it is certain that there is the inheritance of our ancestors in it, but the younger generations are not talented, and no one can unravel it yet, you spend three days here to understand." After speaking, Lin Tianba walked out of the ancestral land directly, and closed the door without hesitation.
In this way, Lin Chen was left in this place by a person to realize this stone tablet like a book from heaven.
"Ah Zi, can't you really understand what this thing is?" After exploring for a while, Lin Chen, who was at a loss, once again turned his hope to Zi.
The purple in the ring still shook her head, and her beautiful face was also a little puzzled, because she really couldn't perceive the stone tablet.
"It may be that the bloodline makes it impossible for me to perceive what it is, but you can communicate with it as long as your soul and body reach a certain strength, and there is no doubt that this is something that surprises me. Purple came out, carefully looked at the stone tablet for a while, and said to Lin Chen.
The stone of this stele is gray-black, giving people a heavy and oppressive feeling, and the dense words on it are golden yellow, and whenever Lin Chen touches it with his soul gathering source qi, he will be forcibly blocked back.
In this way, Lin Chen made no progress on the first day!
Early the next morning, Lin Chen found that the food had been prepared and placed on the stone table beside him, come on, this old man really wanted him to stay here for three days.
When Lin Chen was studying the stone stele, Zi was quietly refining the pill, this was not for the Lin family, but for Lin Chen, this Carl Auction House must use its power.
Although there was not much time, Lin Chen was not in a hurry, and after eating breakfast, Lin Chen sat cross-legged in front of the stone tablet again.
He was still greeted by a sense of resistance that was blocked, once, twice, three times......
However, after so many failures, Lin Chen's state of mind was still unwavering, and he settled down at a special moment.
Stare at!
After discovering Lin Chen's abnormality, in order not to affect Lin Chen's hard-won concentration, Zi locked this area with magic, and there was no big noise that could affect here.
At this time, Lin Chenhe was asleep, his consciousness wandered aimlessly in the space, and he was not resisted the moment he came into contact with the stone tablet, but was sucked by a familiar force.
Then Lin Chen seemed to see the mountains, rivers and seas, swimming in the blue sky, and his whole mind drifted completely freely, and soon a light and shadow restrained him, and then an illusory figure appeared.
A phantom man with a sword walked around naturally, wielding the sword in his hand as he pleased, every move was very casual, but the connection seemed to be seamless.
Rumble!
A 100,000 mountain was directly cut open by the man with the power of the sword, and suddenly the sense of destruction of the landslide made Lin Chen hold his breath, and at this moment, the mountains, rivers, grass and trees all ceased to exist.
Then Lin Chen's consciousness was taken into the air by the man, it was still that simple sword technique, one move and one style seemed to give people a completely different feeling, and now it was especially real, and finally converged into a point towards Lin Chen.
The instinctive consciousness wanted to dodge, but the difference in strength was too large, and the point of light condensed by the man and the sword just now was directly integrated into Lin Chen's consciousness.
"Sword! This is the king of a hundred soldiers. There are blades on both sides, there are short handles, dangerous and abnormal, born to kill, also known as the ancestor of short soldiers, and the ancient holy products. ”
A majestic and domineering voice sounded in Lin Chen's mind, and that kind of incomparable momentum shocked Lin Chen and made him difficult to calm down for a long time.
Then the golden sword that had just appeared in his mind appeared, and suddenly his entire soul seemed to be occupied, and the feeling of tearing permeated his entire body.
When Zi saw Lin Chen in pain, she panicked all of a sudden, but after a preliminary investigation, she found that Lin Chen was fine, and it was harmless to think that the stone tablet was harmless.
However, the pain had just begun, Lin Chen's internal organs were all penetrated by the sharp sword qi, and a trace of destructive power was unscrupulously shuttling in Lin Chen's body.
Yes!
A cry of pain disturbed Lin Tianba, who was outside, only to see the old man kick open the door and come to Lin Chen's side, Zi in the ring was still distressed, and he was ready to take over Lin Chen.
"I really realized!" Lin Tianba looked at Lin Chen, who was in pain at this time, with a shocked expression, his original intention was to let Lin Chen feel the stone stele, but he didn't expect to communicate with the stele, but now what he had to consider was how Lin Chen accepted the inheritance, but there was no one who could help.
After Lin Chen's only remaining consciousness fell into a deep sleep, the source qi and magic automatic body protection in his body were intertwined with the domineering sword qi, but these three powers seemed to be irreconcilable.
Just when Lin Chen's body was about to collapse, the black ring on his hand moved, and the rune law was directly brought into his body by Lin Chen, as if there was a commander all of a sudden, under the communication of the rune, these forces began to collide and merge.
After the soul was completely asleep, Lin Chen could no longer feel the pain and the passage of time, and Lin Tianba stayed with his grandson until dusk.
When the night was completely open and the stars were about to start dotting the night sky, Lin Chen finally woke up.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Lin Tianba stared at him with curiosity on his face, Lin Chen also looked at him in a daze, and his grandson stared at each other like this.
"Boy, what have you comprehended?" Lin Tianba's eager gaze locked on Lin Chen's body, and his voice asked urgently.
"Sword, an incomparably domineering sword!"
Lin Chen was still immersed in the experience just now, and muttered to himself.
