School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 1216: Chapter 1302: Assembling the Broken Stele Qi Cultivation Diagram

The buildings in this deserted city, though as ancient as those in the mortal world’s dead city, have a similar architectural style.

However, the layout of the houses inside is very different.

Walking on the desolate streets, a somber atmosphere permeates the entire dead city. With each step Chen Nan takes, the clear sound of footsteps echoes throughout the street, becoming the only melody in Heaven and Earth.

”Roar!”

Suddenly, a powerful shout is heard, as if a barbaric beast is roaring, resounding throughout the entire dead city.

Chen Nan clearly senses the immense power contained behind this shout. To avoid unnecessary trouble, he slowly flies into the air, silently heading in the direction from which the ’om’ sound came.

Passing over houses, looking at the empty streets and alleys below, devoid of people, Chen Nan feels a familiar sense about the place.

The architecture here is incredibly similar to the style of the dead cities in the mortal world.

Whether it’s the dead cities in the Tao Realm or those in the mortal world, they should have existed in Ancient Times. After all, with the sealing reinforced after the ancient war, the worlds of the Four Extremes became almost isolated, making it more unlikely to build such similar cities.

Chen Nan flew another two to three miles forward, feeling very close to where the ’om’ sound originated.

But just then, a beam of white light rushed in from behind, blocking Chen Nan’s way.

Lu Yuanqiao pointed at Chen Nan, sneering, ”You’ve killed people from my Tianyuan Sect; this is an unforgivable crime. But if you reveal your true identity, perhaps I can spare your life.”

The fact that Chen Nan was able to enter the dead city puzzled everyone present, including Lu Yuanqiao.

Chen Nan helplessly stopped, looking at Lu Yuanqiao ahead. He said calmly, ”I won’t hide it from you; my surname is Zu, and my name is Ancestor.”

Lu Yuanqiao’s face turned cold in anger, ”How dare you insult me!”

”My real name is Ancestor. My parents gave me this name; I can’t do anything about it,” Chen Nan said earnestly.

Lu Yuanqiao frowned and said, ”Then explain your identity. Why do you know the First Spell of the Six-character Great Brightness Mantra, and how can you open the gates of the dead city unharmed by the Destructive Light?”

To create an aura for himself, Chen Nan started bluffing, ”Because the city lord of this dead city back then was my master.”

”Who is your master!?” Lu Yuanqiao asked in shock.

Chen Nan feigned mystery, shaking his head and saying, ”My master was an expert from Ancient Times, and before he left, he instructed that he didn’t want anyone to know his identity.”

Lu Yuanqiao, half-believing, said, ”So the First Spell of the Six-character Great Brightness Mantra was taught to you by your master?”

”Of course,” Chen Nan replied.

Lu Yuanqiao began to believe somewhat. After all, for Chen Nan, at just over twenty years old, to possess such cultivation would be difficult without an expert’s guidance.

The most convincing part was Chen Nan’s ability to open the city gates and enter the dead city!

Someone like him having a master from Ancient Times is credible enough. Lu Yuanqiao said, ”Ancestor, since you have told the truth, I won’t hold a grudge for you killing my sect members. How about forming an alliance with the rest of my Tianyuan Sect and advancing together?”

Chen Nan was well aware that Lu Yuanqiao merely wanted to rely on him to safely explore the dead city.

After all, in his eyes, Chen Nan was the disciple of the city lord of this dead city.

Chen Nan shrugged, ”Whatever.”

After speaking, he exuded an aloof demeanor, putting on the airs of the young master of the dead city, and turned to fly forward.

Lu Yuanqiao waved his hand towards the Tianyuan Sect disciples behind him, quickly chasing after Chen Nan.

But unexpectedly, when Chen Nan unleashed his full speed, Lu Yuanqiao couldn’t catch up, nor could the other Tianyuan Sect disciples who were even further behind.

Before long, Lu Yuanqiao was left far behind by Chen Nan.

”This Ancestor is indeed worthy of being the disciple of an ancient powerhouse, possessing such extreme speed.”

Lu Yuanqiao muttered to himself, although he found Ancestor’s name strange. But if that’s what he was named, what could he do?

”Hurry up, if we follow Ancestor, we’ll be absolutely safe,” he urged the other disciples.

Everyone looked peculiar.

They thought, Ancestor? What kind of name is that? Could Brother Lu genuinely not be played?

Besides the followers of the Tianyuan Sect, everyone else who had heard of this person named Ancestor being the young master of the dead city frantically chased after Chen Nan. They were convinced that as long as they kept up with him, they would surely be safe and might even receive other benefits.

Among these hundred people, some were experts at the Tongtian Second Layer, yet even they couldn’t match Chen Nan’s Dual World Extreme Speed.

Not long after, this hundred-strong force arrived at the western part of the dead city.

Everyone landed because Chen Nan was ahead, already landed on the ground.

In front of Chen Nan stood several stone steles.

On these steles were inscribed mysterious runes, which Chen Nan was studying. Seeing this, everyone rushed over to observe the runes on the steles.

Everyone shared the same thought; they believed that the carvings on these steles were certainly supreme techniques.

”Om...”

Suddenly, Heavenly Sound reverberated, causing all the steles to shake.

Everyone shuddered, while their conscious seas were shaken, except for Chen Nan, who remained motionless. In his conscious sea, two Heavenly Sounds echoed, rapidly growing his spiritual power.

A moment later, everyone calmed down and looked at Chen Nan. Someone asked, ”Young Master Zu, what’s happening?”

As the disciple of a master, the young master of the dead city naturally had to maintain an aloofness.

Chen Nan didn’t even look back. After some time had passed, he calmly uttered, ”No problem.”

Meanwhile, he was somewhat puzzled.

If people knew that the sound ’om’ was the First Spell of the Six-character Great Brightness Mantra, why did no one know this ’hong’ sound when it was emitted?

Could it be that they only knew the first character of the mantra, but not the other six characters?

The ’hong’ sound continued emanating, honing Chen Nan’s spiritual power. At the same time, Chen Nan felt that the runes carved on the stone steles before him seemed to connect between each piece, as if together they formed a complete illustration.

Chen Nan committed to memory the illustrations on the five stone steles, then using his imagination, pieced them together in his mind.

The image appeared before him, though still lacking one corner, yet it stirred a feeling of déjà vu in Chen Nan.

After a moment of recollection, Chen Nan’s eyes lit up—

The broken stele from Sky Sword Mountain!

The material of the five stone steles before him was exactly the same as the Heavenly Descending Broken Stele from Sky Sword Mountain!

And when these five illustrations were pieced together, if the missing corner were supplemented with the broken stele, they would perfectly create a complete Qi Cultivation Diagram!
