Chen Wen shuddered violently and instantly lifted his head.
What entered his eyes was a stone statue flickering with streams of nine-colored light.
Across the surface of the stone statue, ancient markings were flashing, as if a seal had been lit up.
This...
Looking at everything before him, Chen Wen was a little dazed for a moment.
He could sense that there was a wisp of Lingering Thought on the stone statue, and that it was still in an awakened state.
At this moment, he finally understood why Xian Hongshao had said this seal was not meant to seal away something evil, but to wait for someone to come.
And that person was clearly him.
"Don't worry. It bears you no ill will."
Xian Hongshao spoke once again.
Chen Wen nodded, then took a deep breath.
As far as he was concerned, he could still tell whether there was any malice or not.
Just as Xian Hongshao had said, he truly did not sense any malice from this stone statue.
Next, he would see what purpose this stone statue had.
Time passed bit by bit.
And just then, Chen Wen looked toward the stone statue once again.
At this moment, he discovered that the stone statue had already stabilized. The stone statue, whose eyes had originally been tightly shut, slowly opened them as well.
Deep in the stone statue's eyes, Chen Wen saw a trace of Divine Sense flash by.
Sure enough, the Lingering Thought had awakened.
Chen Wen unconsciously took a deep breath.
At this moment, he finally confirmed the guess in his heart.
And just then, the stone statue's gaze fell on Chen Wen.
Chen Wen's entire body could not help but tremble. He had the feeling that he had been seen through from head to toe.
