Douluo Continent: Become stronger by stealing Tang San's luck!

Chapter 1096 Mysterious Ancient Writings on the Stone Wall

After Shali finished speaking, he gradually turned into irregular sand.

Then it began to merge with the ground beneath its feet and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Although Qing Leixiao cleared most of the poisonous fog from the valley, a thick layer of poisonous fog still remained deep within.

Tang Lan waited for a long time but Shali didn't come out, so she had no choice but to continue exploring on her own.

With the Azure Thunder Flute protecting him at his waist, the poisonous mist within three zhang of Tang Lan dissipated on its own.

When Tang Lan stepped into the cave where the Rock Crystal Scorpion King had previously lived, she was surprised to find several rows of obscure and difficult-to-understand ancient characters on the cave wall.

Reaching out to touch the dark purple stone wall, Tang Lan could vaguely feel a faint warmth emanating from it.

It's as if there's a giant furnace baking behind this mountain wall.

"What kind of script is this? I don't recall it being the ancient script I know from the Soul Master world!"

Tang Lan squatted on the ground, staring at the words in deep thought, muttering to herself.

But Ning Xian, who was inside the Black Blade Slaughter, exclaimed in surprise and actually transformed into human form, emerging from this semi-divine artifact.

To Tang Lan’s recollection, she had never seen this guy so excited before.

Then Ning Xian spoke up: "This, this couldn't be the legendary first-generation ancient script, could it?"

Tang Lan looked puzzled after hearing this and asked, somewhat confused, "What is the earliest form of ancient script?"

He did know that there were many ancient scripts, such as the ancient script of Ning Xian's era, which he did not recognize.

However, Tang Lan could tell from Ning Xian's words that this guy clearly recognized this kind of writing.

"Early Ancient Script, as the name suggests, is one of the earliest forms of writing in human history!"

"There were fewer Soul Masters back then than in our time, but they were truly powerful."

"Each of them is comparable to a Limit Douluo, and some of the exceptionally talented individuals are even comparable to gods."

Ning Xian took a deep breath and then tried to describe it in a relatively calm tone.

Even so, Tang Lan could still hear the trembling in the guy's voice.

Even Tang Lan was astonished and opened her mouth wide upon hearing what this guy said.

To stand shoulder to shoulder with gods with a mortal body, completely surpassing the Limit Douluo and reaching that level.

The first generation of Soul Masters were truly terrifying; they were far beyond what modern humans could achieve.

"Could you translate this for me? What does it mean?"

Tang Lan asked tentatively.

"Okay, I'll give it a try!"

Ning Xian nodded, then turned around and began to stare intently at the stone wall in front of him.

Tang Lan dared not make the slightest movement, worried that she might disturb Ning Xian's thoughts.

He Xi appeared outside at some unknown time, and was now looking at Ning Xian with her arms crossed.

Although she and Ning Xian were of the same generation, their tastes were quite different.

One of Ning Xian's hobbies is studying ancient writing and some unique memory and secret methods.

"The war of the gods, the collapsing continent. The fragmented interface will be sealed away and taken away by that being."

"Fate is irreversible; we are but a drop in the ocean of time. If this place ever sees the light of day again, future generations may take our belongings with them."

Although there were only a few sentences on the wall, Ning Xian spent a full hour translating them.

Some of the characters have even completely disappeared, and Ning Xian can only rely on his guesses and inferences to make connections.

But Tang Lan has gradually come to understand the general meaning.

After a long pause, He Xi finally spoke, "These should be the words carved by one of the first generation of Soul Masters back then!"

"If what's written here is true, then at the deepest part of this cave, there will be a cave specifically for storing what that predecessor left behind."

Even He Xi became interested at this moment.

In that era, it was a land of outstanding people and abundant resources.

The things left behind by these powerful figures are naturally of high quality; any one of them would be an extraordinary treasure in this era.

"Let's wait for Sally to come back before we go in together!"

Tang Lan pondered for a moment before speaking.

What followed was a long wait. Tang Lan had initially thought that the poison Shali had inflicted wouldn't do him much harm.

But it seems that Tang Lan underestimated the deadly venom of the Rock Crystal Scorpion King's tail this time.

About an hour later, Tang Lan saw the ground begin to pulsate rapidly like a vortex.

Then Shali slowly appeared and said, "I'm sorry, this poison is very potent. I've moved it thousands of meters underground."

The latest novel is first published here!

Tang Lan nodded, and then told Shali about what she had seen on the stone wall.

But Shali scratched his head, seemingly completely unable to understand Tang Lan's words.

Tang Lan didn't care about this, since it was just informing the guy, not asking for his opinion.

In a sense, Shali will obey Hexi's decision, so it will definitely go in with Tang Lan and the others.

The cave was narrow at first, but it became wider and wider as you went inside, and you could even say that it was a maze of passageways.

Tang Lan and the others randomly chose a path and ended up in a blessed land where spiritual herbs were grown.

Even Tang Lan was speechless with surprise upon entering. She never expected that such a spiritual spring would be found within this blessed land by that senior.

Although countless years have passed, the water in the spiritual spring is still full of spiritual energy.

When they entered, all the herbs in the entire spiritual field had matured, and many of them were radiating a precious light due to their age.

One of the radishes, upon seeing Tang Lan arrive, transformed into a palm-sized human figure, crawled out of the ground, and ran away.

In the end, it took Tang Lan and Sha Li working together to stop this guy.

"Hehehe, even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save you!"

Shali looked at the little baby struggling in his palm and a silly smile appeared on his face.

"Wow! You bad guys are bullying me! I'm going to tell the old man!"

When the little child saw Sulley's large face made of sand, he was so frightened that he burst into tears.

However, Tang Lan understood something from what he heard and signaled Shali not to move.

So Tang Lan asked, "Who is this 'uncle' you're talking about?"

"Is there someone else here besides you?"

Tang Lan himself didn't quite believe this question. No one had been here for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, so how could there possibly be other people?

"The uncle hasn't come for a very long time. He said he had something to do and went out, but he hasn't come back since."

"But I believe he will definitely come back!"

"If you eat me, I'll turn you into stone statues!"

The little boy suddenly changed his demeanor, glaring at Tang Lan, seemingly unafraid of Tang Lan and Sha Li at all.

But its trembling legs betrayed it.

"You little radish sprite, you're so small, but you have such a big mouth!" (End of Chapter)
