The man stared intently at the stone tablet, his eyes flashing with a crazed light, trying to discern the terrifying Sword Intent contained within it.
And this man was none other than Jianxin.
Decades ago, he was training at the bottom of the sea when a powerful force suddenly pulled him here, and a voice told him that he had to thoroughly understand the stone tablet before he could leave this place.
Jianxin knew this might be his fortuitous opportunity, so without a second thought, he immediately began to study it. However, the contents of the stone tablet were extremely difficult to comprehend, and were incredibly profound, completely overturning Jianxin's understanding of the Sword Dao.
Therefore, after so many years, Jianxin has only grasped half of it, and it will probably take several more years to fully comprehend it.
"Let me out!" Jianxin suddenly stood up and shouted angrily at the empty hall, his eyes filled with anxiety and rage.
"You must not leave until you have fully comprehended the contents of the stone tablet." Suddenly, a voice, both ancient and sharp, echoed throughout the hall.
"Someone is still waiting for me, I can't stay here forever!" Jianxin said loudly, his hands clenched into fists.
But after a long time, the voice did not sound again.
"Damn it!" Jianxin Bai Luo Xue's image involuntarily appeared in his mind. The thought that she might have already married someone else at this moment caused his overwhelming Sword Intent to erupt, shaking the entire hall.
The Light Scar Sword appeared in his hand, and a sharp light burst forth from the Jianxin's eyes. His expression turned ferocious as he circulated all the power within his body. Endless Sword Intent soared into the sky, accompanied by continuous sword cries and rumbling sounds.
"Break!" Jianxin slashed down at the palace gate with his sword, his Sword Intent surging and bursting with dazzling Sword-Ray, containing the power to destroy the world, as if it could cleave the Milky Way.
boom!
A terrifying sword strike landed heavily on the palace gate, causing the entire palace to shake violently as if it were about to collapse. However, after a moment, the palace returned to its original state. The sword strike had not caused any damage to the gate, leaving only a shallow sword mark.
"I refuse to believe it!" Jianxin roared, his face contorted. He leaped into the air and unleashed a series of terrifying sword strikes at the palace gate. Even Immortal Sovereign Emperor could only dodge them!
Rumble!
One terrifying Sword Qi after another, swirling with mysterious blazing light, struck the palace gates, creating a frightening and earth-shattering spectacle.
"Huff... Huff..." Jianxin gasped for breath, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. His gaze was fixed on the palace gate, now bearing only a few sword marks. His face was ashen, filled with extreme anger.
"Why can't I open this damn door? I've already used all my strength. Do I really have to understand the contents of the stone tablet before I can leave? But Luo Xue is still waiting for me!" Jianxin was somewhat frantic at this moment, his eyes were bloodshot, and his heart was in turmoil. After a long time, he gradually calmed down.
"There's no use rushing now, Luo Xue. Wait for me a little longer. I'll finish deciphering the contents of the stone tablet soon, and then I'll come find you right away!" Jianxin took a deep breath, held his breath, and sat cross-legged in front of the stone tablet, his expression focused and not daring to slack off in the slightest.
Yingtian Academy.
bamboo forest.
"Dean." Shen Xiao, the ancestor of the God Clan and also an instructor at the academy, found Su Chen today with a respectful expression.
"Is there something you need?" Su Chen asked calmly, still lying in the rocking chair.
Shen Xiao hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "Dean, your cultivation is extraordinary. You must have already seen that my God Clan is not simple, right?"
"So?" Su Chen said calmly.
Shen Xiao's heart skipped a beat. The Dean really knew something. Composing himself, he said, "My clan has lived on Canglan Star for billions of years, searching for one person, and now, it seems I have found him!"
As he spoke, a smile and a hint of excitement appeared on his face. After hundreds of millions of years, he had finally found that person.
"Oh? Who is it?" Su Chen said with a faint smile.
"Your disciple, Lin Fan!" Shen Xiao said earnestly. He had been observing Lin Fan for some time and found him to be exactly as the clan leader had described him; therefore, he was certain that Lin Fan was the person he was looking for!
Originally, he intended to take Lin Fan away directly, but considering that Lin Fan was Su Chen's disciple, he ultimately did not do so. He knew that if he took Lin Fan away without informing Su Chen, Su Chen would definitely be furious!
If it were an ordinary person, Shen Xiao wouldn't care, but this was Su Chen. Su Chen's strength far exceeded his imagination; he was terrifyingly strong and could even be compared to their clan leader!
Although it was unknown why such a powerful figure was here, Shen Xiao knew that he must not provoke him, otherwise, he would bring a terrifying enemy to the God Clan.
"I want to take Lin Fan away from Canglan Star," Shen Xiao said.
"No, at least not now," Su Chen said decisively, shaking his head.
"Why? With Lin Fan's talent for cultivation, he would have a better future if he left Canglan Star," Shen Xiao said solemnly.
"He still has a mission to complete," Su Chen said.
"What mission?" Shen Xiao asked, startled.
" Lin Fan will have to bear the brunt of that great calamity in the future," Su Chen said.
"What!" Shen Xiao's expression changed, and he hurriedly said, "How can he possibly withstand that great calamity in his current state?"
"Even if he can't carry it, he has to. It's his responsibility," Su Chen said calmly.
Shen Xiao remained silent. He felt that Su Chen had truly gone mad, actually deluding himself into thinking that Lin Fan could stop this calamity. He knew Lin Fan's current strength was nothing; he wasn't even Immortal Emperor!
Most of the powerful figures from beyond the realm are at the Transcendence Realm, or even Transcendence Realm. How could Lin Fan possibly withstand them? It's simply a pipe dream!
But someone like Su Chen wouldn't make a foolish decision, so why was he so certain that Lin Fan could withstand that calamity?
Shen Xiao couldn't understand it, he really couldn't understand it.
"Only under such pressure can he grow and become stronger in the future. I know your purpose. If you really want to take him away, then face that great calamity with him!" Su Chen said.
"Will you intervene then?" Shen Xiao suddenly asked.
"No," Su Chen said, shaking his head.
"How could Lin Fan possibly withstand that calamity?" Shen Xiao said in a deep voice.
"Trust him." Su Chen only said three words. He was confident that Lin Fan could withstand it, because Lin Fan was the Child of Fortune, and the Child of Fortune could create miracles.
"I need to go back and discuss it," Shen Xiao said after thinking for a long time.
"Whatever you say." Su Chen nodded calmly, without saying anything.
Shen Xiao bid farewell to Su Chen and turned to leave. He decided to go back now and ask the clan leader what to do, as this matter was of great importance.
