Chapter 370, Part 2: The Word-Fixing Technique! The Scenery Beyond the Starry Sky!
Chen Fan smiled knowingly upon seeing this.
Eunuch Wei also put away his tools.
The two exchanged a glance and immediately followed Shi San into the mountains.
Faintly visible, the chirping of insects could be heard throughout the mountains and forests, and occasionally a gentle breeze could be felt on one's face.
Under the bright moonlight, the forest path was as bright as day.
Looking up, you can clearly see the countless stars in the sky, as well as the vast Milky Way!
Seeing this scene, Chen Fan, who was following behind Shi San, couldn't help but show a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
Beyond the sealed land lies the Southern Region, which in turn belongs to the Southern Star. But what lies beyond the Southern Star?
As the saying goes, "Only when you see a grain of sand in the vast ocean do you realize how insignificant you are."
Chen Fan glanced at it twice, unable to believe it, and then continued to follow.
The group descended one after another and soon arrived at the mountainside.
The path here is quite winding and bumpy; even woodcutters and hunters would likely find it difficult to make their way up.
Not to mention Shi San, who lives on the mountain!
Knowing the way well, he traversed the winding mountain paths in just a few steps, like a monkey.
Upon arriving at the top of the mountain, a paradise unfolded before our eyes.
There are farmlands, fruit trees, a few tiled houses, and even a dozen or so chickens, ducks, and geese.
Seeing this familiar scene, Eunuch Wei was stunned for a moment, and sighed:
"This place is nice!"
"This is my home..." Shi San said.
"The place where that stone tablet is is just ahead."
"Rural life," Chen Fan nodded in agreement.
"Let's go take a look at the stone tablet first!"
Shi San nodded.
He was visibly happy when he got home.
He chatted and laughed all the way, and soon passed through a bamboo forest.
Behind the bamboo grove was an open space.
On the ground stood a three-zhang-tall blue stone tablet!
Just then, at noon, wisps of light appeared on the blue stone tablet again.
Under the light, strange runes faintly appeared.
Upon arriving here and seeing this, Shi San instinctively sat cross-legged in meditation.
It also exudes an aura that blends seamlessly with the entire mountain!
"This is... a marrow cleansing and meridian purification!" Eunuch Wei exclaimed in surprise upon seeing this.
"Incredible... there are stones that can help people actively cleanse their marrow and meridians!"
Chen Fan also figured it out!
No wonder Shi San was incredibly strong, far surpassing ordinary people; it turned out to be related to this stone tablet.
In addition, this person has lived for more than three hundred years, which means that he has undergone marrow cleansing and meridian treatment for more than three hundred years!
If it were an ordinary person, they would probably have already embarked on the path to immortality and become a powerful figure!
But Shi San was still just a mortal, and he was undergoing the marrow cleansing and meridian tempering day after day!
Overwhelmed with emotion, Chen Fan walked step by step to the stone tablet.
Eunuch Wei followed closely behind, and when he looked at the mysterious figure, he said:
"This seems to be... a spell... but it doesn't look like it..."
Chen Fan was even more stunned when he saw it.
This was because these strange runes were extremely similar to the Fixed Word Technique he had previously obtained.
And the runes on the Golden Bowl Enlightenment Stele are extremely similar, seemingly originating from the same source!
Just as he was filled with surprise, the golden bowl in Chen Fan's arms also began to heat up.
This made him swallow hard, further confirming that the stone tablet was related to the golden bowl, and even that the spell-fixing technique was related to the golden bowl.
As he pondered the matter, a chill ran down his spine, and a glint of cunning appeared in Chen Fan's eyes.
"It's this thing..." Shi San said, waking up at this moment.
It appears every three hours of the day…
Wei Gonggong smiled as if he had seen a treasure.
He glanced at Shi San and couldn't help but sigh:
"You lad...you're truly blessed!"
Unable to understand, Shi San scratched his head, wondering what the eunuch was saying.
Chen Fan glanced at the stone tablet twice, then began to form a hand seal.
Suddenly, a burst of white light erupted from his hand!
Under the radiant light, the runes on the bluestone also shone brightly.
The two were attracted to each other and soon formed a strange relationship.
A string of golden characters quickly appeared in Chen Fan's sea of consciousness.
These characters clearly belong to the same category as the method of character determination.
Moreover, after Chen Fan used the Fixed Word Technique, these runes combined on their own!
His biggest impression was that the word-fixing technique seemed more complete, but it would take some time to learn it!
Visibly, the blue stone tablet lost its former magic, quickly began to crack, and finally turned into dust!
"My tombstone..."
Shi San was shocked when he saw this!
Chen Fan frowned upon seeing this scene.
Fortunately, Shi San did not turn white-haired and immediately become a pile of bones.
Relieved, he chuckled and said:
"It is indeed related to the art of word fixing. It seems that what you encountered back then, Eunuch Wei, was only a part of it..."
Eunuch Wei nodded.
While on a mission outside the palace, he unexpectedly encountered that miraculous scene in a deep mountain forest.
Although he didn't get the same opportunity as Shi San, he still copied down the rune, which ultimately benefited the old eunuch!
After thinking it over, Eunuch Wei shook his head and said:
"What is destined to be yours will be yours, and what is not, you cannot force. We understand this principle!"
Chen Fan smiled but remained silent.
He glanced around and then searched the area carefully again.
After confirming that there was nothing there, he walked towards Shi San's house!
On the way back.
Chen Fan also inquired about the situation in the longevity village.
According to Shi San, the people in the longevity village lived to be a hundred years old very early on!
The reason he was able to live longer was because of that stone tablet.
Now that the stone tablet is broken, Shi San is afraid of dying suddenly!
Chen Fan was left speechless, both amused and exasperated upon hearing this.
With nothing else to do, he subconsciously extended his divine sense to cover the mountain!
He searched every corner of the mountains, from thousands of feet underground to every remote mountain.
Chen Fan, who ultimately found nothing, could only conclude that the spiritual energy in this place was quite abundant, and the people living here must have benefited to some extent!
Upon entering the courtyard, Eunuch Wei habitually took out a chair and lay down.
He glanced leisurely at the stars in the sky and said softly:
"Eunuch Chen, what kind of scenery do you imagine beyond the Southern Star?"
"We don't know," Chen Fan said, having also found a chair and lay down.
"We haven't even left this wretched place yet, and we're already thinking about the Southern Star?"
"There's nothing we can do, we know too much!" Eunuch Wei said chuckled.
"If I were still the Ninth Prince of Dayuan, I wouldn't know about these things!"
Chen Fan remained silent.
As they learned more and more about the sealed land, they seemed to feel the pressure!
Especially after hearing Li Qingyang say that the patriarch of the Soul Refining Sect was still alive and that those people from beyond the realm were after the treasure, Chen Fan found it even harder to sleep!
Originally, he intended to avoid competition and scrambling, but he was unknowingly dragged into this mess by a powerful force!
Just as Chen Fan was filled with emotion, Shi San took out a basket of eggs and said:
"Gentlemen, you've come from afar, please take these eggs with you!"
Chen Fan was taken aback for a moment, then a smile appeared on his lips.
He glanced at Shi San and said:
"Do you want to live forever, Shi San…"
