Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1317: Chapter 1316: Stone Coffin and Characters

Standing beside the Stone Coffin, Su Yang looked around fiercely, but still, he found nothing.

Frustrated but unwilling to give up, Su Yang retraced his steps meticulously, yet his efforts remained fruitless.

Su Yang felt disheartened. Had he really been seeing things?

However, these were clues Su Yang had finally discovered after much difficulty, and he was not ready to let go.

Thinking back on the process of seeing those characters, Su Yang suddenly recalled a detail—he had been sitting on the ground when he noticed them. Could it be that to see these characters, one needed to be at a certain height?

With this thought, Su Yang’s spirit was rekindled. He bent down to inspect the area as he walked back and forth over the previous spot.

Yet, the result was the same; Su Yang found nothing.

Su Yang was bewildered. What was going on? Why wasn’t anything working?

Finally, Su Yang sat down next to the Stone Coffin again, for it was where he initially started. Sitting in the original position, he adjusted the direction of his head to look carefully. He gradually moved back until his body leaned against the Stone Coffin.

It was at that moment that faint characters started to appear on the stone wall!

Su Yang’s eyes widened with excitement, nearly jumping up. But he restrained himself, maintaining his position, staring intently at the wall.

The characters on the wall became more apparent, and Su Yang could see that they were indeed cultivation techniques. Most importantly, the characters matched the content of his Destiny’s Tome.

To be precise, the text on the wall seemed to be explanations and annotations of some parts of the Destiny’s Tome. With the knowledge of these characters, parts of the Destiny’s Tome that Su Yang previously couldn’t comprehend suddenly became clear.

Su Yang was astounded. What was the meaning of this?

Previously, when he obtained the Bronze Seal Script, he used it to interpret and annotate the content of the Destiny’s Tome.

Now, the text on the wall served the same purpose for the Destiny’s Tome.

Su Yang had no idea what was happening, but one thing was certain: both the Bronze Seal Script and this chamber had an inseparable connection to his Destiny’s Tome.

Su Yang did not even know the origin of his Destiny’s Tome, yet after so many experiences, he was even more convinced of its extraordinary nature. Moreover, few people in this world even knew of the existence of Destiny’s Tome. The knowledge it contained was wonderfully mysterious.

Not to mention, a figure like Black Widow practiced the incomplete Demonic Enchantment Heart Technique, while his Destiny’s Tome contained the complete version. This fact alone was shocking!

Furthermore, the Medicine Sect monopolized the methods for producing three types of Elixir, all of which were detailed in the Destiny’s Tome. Considering how these elixirs were hoarded by the Medicine Sect, and coveted by the Superlunary Sects and great families, it was clear how precious the methods were.

Yet, the Destiny’s Tome had these methods!

If this fact were to spread, countless people would covet the Destiny’s Tome.

A man is not guilty for being frank, but he is guilty for holding treasures. This principle was clear to Su Yang. Hence, he never disclosed anything about the Destiny’s Tome to anyone, and dared not to speak carelessly. The trouble it could attract was unimaginable!

Su Yang always wanted to figure out the origin of the Destiny’s Tome but hesitated to inquire, choosing to investigate on his own.

He knew that his father, Su Ping, surely knew the origin of the Destiny’s Tome, but with Su Ping’s whereabouts unknown, Su Yang had no one to ask.

Therefore, Su Yang could only search for clues himself.

The Bronze Seal Script was a clue related to the Destiny’s Tome, which Su Yang intended to investigate further. Unexpectedly, within this secret chamber’s walls, he found another clue, which greatly surprised him.

Could it be that the Destiny’s Tome was related to Qinghe Academy?

Su Yang meticulously recorded the text on the wall, comparing it with the Destiny’s Tome, clarifying many aspects he had not previously understood.

Yet, Su Yang found it odd that only a specific area of the wall carried text while the rest was empty.

In such a vast chamber with extensive wall space, it seemed implausible that text existed only in that one area.

Su Yang looked around; the rest of the walls were bare. After thinking for a while, he got up and approached another Stone Coffin.

This time, Su Yang did not sit down but instead reached out and touched the Stone Coffin. He wanted to figure out whether the appearance of the text on the walls was related to his position or the coffins themselves.

Glancing around, Su Yang quickly spotted some characters on a nearby wall section.

Satisfied, Su Yang was certain that the wall text was not related to his position but to the eight Stone Coffins. In other words, he had to touch each of the Stone Coffins to see the characters on the walls.

This suggested that the text on the walls was likely connected to the power within the eight Stone Coffins.

Delighted, Su Yang not only uncovered the secret behind the wall characters but also realized that there were eight Stone Coffins in the room. Touching each of the coffins could reveal text on the walls, suggesting he would not leave this place unrewarded.

Taking a deep breath, Su Yang calmed his mind and began to carefully study the text on the walls.

The content here still corresponded with the Destiny’s Tome.

After meticulously going through it, remembering all the content, Su Yang proceeded to touch the third Stone Coffin.

Just like before, touching the Stone Coffin made characters appear on the adjacent wall.

Continuing in this manner, Su Yang encountered and touched all eight Stone Coffins, and text appeared at eight different spots on the walls. All these texts matched the Destiny’s Tome.

With this knowledge firmly in his mind, Su Yang’s findings were profound. He would need some time to digest them fully. Once he had absorbed the content, his strength would surely surge!

”Those two old geezers finally did something useful!” Su Yang muttered to himself, for usually they caused him nothing but trouble, and this was indeed the first time they had helped him in such a substantial way.
