Chapter 354 Mysterious Ancient Text
"I am Pangu. I came from chaos, created heaven and earth, and transformed into the primordial world."
"My power is the power to create heaven and earth. My way is the way of heaven. After my death, the way of heaven will be without a master, and the primordial wilderness will be unopened. If future generations obtain this stone, they will know three things."
"Firstly, within the chaos lies a wall, and beyond that wall lies a realm. Within this realm reside gods—not the gods of the primordial era, not the gods of Greece, not the gods of Norse mythology, not the gods of Japan, not the gods of India, not the gods of Egypt. These gods within the realm are gods beyond the realm. These gods beyond the realm do not cultivate the Way of Heaven, nor the Way of God, nor the Way of Demons, nor the Way of Monsters. They cultivate the Way of Cause and Effect. Those who follow the Way of Cause and Effect feed on cause and effect and derive their power from destiny. If they were to come, what would you do? I do not know."
"Secondly, Jormungandr is not the largest thing in the chaos. There are two things in the chaos, one is called Kun, and the other is called Peng. The size of Kun is immeasurable, its size is immeasurable, its size is immeasurable, its size is immeasurable. Kun and Peng cannot see each other, for if they do, the chaos will be torn apart. If Kun and Peng do see each other, the primordial world will surely perish. You must beware of this."
"Thirdly, the Lord of Heaven is not irreplaceable. After my death, Heaven will be without a master. If you can gather three things, you can succeed to Heaven. What are these three things? The heart of Pangu, the axe of Pangu, and the blood of Pangu. The heart is in your heart, the axe shattered in chaos, and the blood transformed in the primordial world. Although the axe is shattered, its fragments are scattered throughout the chaos."
"Though the blood has been transformed, its drops have scattered throughout the primordial world. If you can gather them all, you can continue the Heavenly Way. If you cannot, the Heavenly Way will be forever without a master. The primordial world is in grave danger."
After reading it, Su Fan put the phone back in his pocket.
He looked at the stone slab; the words on it were still there.
He pried the stone slab out of the pit. The slab was very light, as light as a piece of foam.
He turned the stone slab over, and there were words on the back as well.
The characters are still in oracle bone script.
He took another photo and sent it to the system.
A dialog box pops up.
"Text on the back. Translation costs 100 million popularity points. Translate now?"
Su Fan clicked "Yes".
The dialog box disappeared, and a message popped up.
"I have said all I need to say. If future generations obtain this stone, they will know one thing. The gods from beyond the realm have already come. They came thirty thousand years ago. They killed Kun and Peng. The corpses of Kun and Peng sank to the bottom of Chaos. If they know that Kun and Peng are dead, they will surely come again. You should prepare. I have a method to summon the corpse of Kun and Peng. Although Kun and Peng are dead, their corpses are still usable. Their corpses can hold off the gods from beyond the realm for a moment. In that moment, you can escape. Escape to where? Escape from Chaos. What is outside Chaos? I do not know. But there is no causal path there."
After Su Fan finished reading, he put the stone slab down.
He looked at Sun Wukong.
"Did you hear that?"
Sun Wukong nodded.
"I heard it. The God from Beyond the Realm, the Dao of Cause and Effect, the Kunpeng, and those who escaped from Chaos."
Su Fan said, "Pangu said that a god from beyond the realms came 30,000 years ago and killed Kunpeng. Kunpeng died, and his body remained at the bottom of chaos. Pangu left a method to awaken Kunpeng's body and hold it off for a moment. In that moment, one can escape from chaos."
Sun Wukong slammed his golden cudgel into the ground.
"Why run away? I, Old Sun, am not running away."
Su Fan said, "Pangu said to flee. Even Pangu couldn't defeat the gods from beyond the realms, so he wanted his descendants to flee. Can you defeat them?"
Sun Wukong remained silent.
He pulled the golden cudgel from the ground and carried it on his shoulder.
"So what are you going to do?"
Su Fan said, "Gather all three items."
He took Pangu's heart out of his bosom.
The blue stone no longer shines, nor does it pulsate.
He placed his heart on the stone slab, attaching it to the words on the slab.
The heart touched the stone slab and lit up.
A bluish light emanated from the heart and shone on the stone slab.
The words on the stone slab also lit up.
The strokes of the characters, like tree roots, extend from the stone slab and entwine around the heart.
The heart was entangled by tree roots, which tightened their grip until they finally crushed the heart.
The heart shattered and turned into blue light.
The light penetrated the stone slab, and the words on the slab came to life.
The words flew up from the stone slab and lined up one by one in the air.
Oracle bone script evolved into bronze script, bronze script evolved into seal script, and seal script evolved into regular script.
Finally, it turned into a sentence, floating in mid-air.
"The heart of Pangu has been returned to its rightful place. The fragments of Pangu's axe are scattered throughout the chaos. Drops of Pangu's blood are scattered throughout the primordial world. Those who wish to gather them all must know one thing. Where the axe shattered, the stone knows. Where the blood transformed, the stone does not know. To know where the blood drops fell, one must ask all things in the primordial world. All things know, yet all things do not speak. You shall seek it yourself."
After Su Fan finished reading, the words in the air disappeared.
The stone slab returned to its ordinary, bluish-gray state, with no writing on it.
The heart was gone, turned into light, and was swallowed by the stone slab.
Su Fan picked up the stone slab and stuffed it into his pocket.
The stone slab wasn't big; it fit perfectly in my arms, squeezed together with the fragments.
The fragment touched the stone slab and trembled.
Su Fan sensed it.
He took the fragments out.
The fragments were slippery and cold in his palm.
He placed the fragments on the stone slab.
The fragment touched the stone slab and lit up.
White light shone through the fragments and onto the stone slab.
The words on the stone slab reappeared.
These are not the same words as before; they are new words.
The characters were very small and densely packed, like ants crawling all over the stone slab.
Su Fan took out his phone and snapped a picture.
A dialog box pops up.
"Fragment sensor information. Translation consumes 10 million popularity points. Translate now?"
Su Fan clicked "Yes".
The dialog box disappeared, and a message popped up.
