Chapter 373: The Black Stone Tablet Excavated
It seems that the battle just now must have alarmed some of the terrifying creatures here.
"It can only be this way."
Lu Luan immediately removed the Xuan Gang that was protecting his body. The fluctuations of this thing were too great and it would be easy to be exposed.
However, without the protection of Xuan Gang, the wind and dust were like sharp iron filings, blowing against the body and giving a feeling of being pierced by thousands of needles. Soon, dense bloodstains appeared on the skin and severe pain came. At the same time, he took the initiative to restrain some of the strange aura that permeated the surroundings, so that he would not look so out of place.
However, this also caused the vitality in the body to be lost faster. Fortunately, he had practiced the essence refining technique and the physical body method, so his vitality was abundant and he could afford to consume it.
After doing all this, he left quickly.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the noise behind him getting weaker and weaker.
What followed was a stumbling and bumpy journey forward.
"How could it happen here?"
After walking carefully for about half a quarter of an hour, the surrounding light became brighter and the wind was not as strong.
"It should be okay, right?"
After mumbling something, he dispersed the strange aura that he had been restraining, and his body finally felt a lot more comfortable.
"Hmm... weird, why is there another fluctuation?"
After walking in, Lu Luan made a strange discovery that the spiritual fetus's perception was different, and it was a completely different feeling from before.
The previous one was like a spirit fetus discovering tempting food and wanting to swallow it like a child seeing candy, but the one that just appeared now was like a pilgrimage and a return to one's roots.
The new feeling was faint, but profound.
Lu Luan continued walking forward for a while, and the strong wind disappeared. He found that this was actually an open space hidden deep in the storm, about three miles long and wide. The strange air was also somewhat different, like the morning mist, deep and cold.
There was no wind or sand, it was very quiet, and the black land looked like cultivated soil. It looked very fertile, but there was not a single plant growing on it.
"There seems to be something in here that is attracting the spirit fetus."
Lu Luan walked in cautiously.
In this borderless storm, there is such a peaceful place, which is weird inside and out.
"Let's see what it is first."
After thinking for a while, he decided to explore the mystery here first.
After saying that, he walked in.
The soil is so loose that every step leaves a footprint.
“It’s stronger.”
He looked at a direction and the vibrations that attracted the spirit fetus came from there.
He walked very slowly. The atmosphere in here was eerie, making him feel uneasy. He had to be cautious and tentative with every step.
"Om..."
"boom……"
After walking a few steps, he heard a roar, as if it was a great battle, mixed with wisps of thoughts, making people feel that the battle that took place many years ago was still vivid in their minds.
Lu Luan was captivated by the sound of gongs and drums and the fighting. His expression became dazed, his body began to tremble, and his blood surged involuntarily. Although there was nothing in front of him, he seemed to be there and experienced it personally.
"what happened?"
After a while, he suddenly came to his senses and found that his forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat.
"It seems that there was indeed a fierce battle here. Even now, there are still spiritual thoughts that have not dissipated. How many people died?"
Lu Luan's eyes were solemn. He felt like a lone boat in a storm, helpless and fragile.
Calming his mind, he continued to move forward following his sensation.
The danger he had imagined did not happen next. Although the force that devoured people's vitality was very strong, it went smoothly.
"It seems to be coming from underground."
After searching in this quiet place for a quarter of an hour, Lu Luan finally determined the exact location.
The feeling of being connected to the spiritual fetus came from deep underground under his feet.
"Could it be something left over from that battle? It's buried underground."
Lu Luan pondered, and when he thought about it, his eyes lit up and a burning feeling arose in his heart. If it was true, then it might be a great opportunity.
"Then dig."
After saying this, he took out his spear and started digging downwards. He had already gone deep into the rocky land, and he did not dare to use his true energy anymore.
Although the gun is not handy for this kind of work, fortunately with the flexible assistance of Xuan Gang and the powerful physical strength, the digging speed is very fast.
He probably never thought that one day he would still be doing the work of digging soil as he did when he was young.
As a large amount of soil was dug out, a large pit more than ten feet wide appeared in a short while.
Lu Luan continued digging, and the dry soil on the surface slowly disappeared. Underneath was a layer of dark black soil, dripping wet. The strange aura in it was extremely strong, which accelerated the loss of his vitality.
Compared to when he entered this cave, his skin had lost its luster and was now like dry land, and even his lips were beginning to crack.
It goes deeper and deeper, and the feeling of the spiritual fetus becomes stronger and stronger.
Finally, after more than ten feet, his hand touched something extremely hard.
It is a black stone.
"Have it!"
A bright look suddenly appeared in Lu Luan's tired eyes.
He knocked it against it with his gun and found that there was no mark left.
Moreover, he could clearly feel that the spiritual fetus had a very close connection with the stone.
Lu Luan continued to exert force, and soon, as the surrounding soil was pushed away, the true appearance of the stone underneath was revealed.
This is a pitch-black stone tablet, three meters high and ten meters wide. Although the surface is uneven, its texture is like jade, without a single flaw, and it is simple and heavy.
"It's so heavy!"
He tried to move it, but found that even with all his strength, he could not move it at all. It was as if the stone tablet had grown roots. It seemed to have the weight of a mountain.
Next he tried to see if he could put it into the storage ring, but found that it was useless.
"What is this? Is it just a piece of stone used for refining equipment?"
Lu Luan looked at it but couldn't see any clues. Although it was related to the spiritual fetus and was an amazing treasure, what was the use of it if he couldn't lift it or move it. There was disappointment in his eyes.
