Chapter 653: Stealing the Heaven and Substituting the Sun
A meteor fell from the sky and landed on the lake, illuminating the entire lake surface.
What is strange is that the meteor that seemed to rush into the lake at such a fast speed did not cause any ripples in the lake water.
Before Zhou Wen could see the situation underwater clearly, he saw stars falling from the sky and large meteor showers falling from the sky, all heading towards the small lake, forming a magnificent spectacle.
"Are those really meteors?" Zhou Wen couldn't be sure. The stars fell into the lake, but the lake surface was calm and peaceful, as if the boundless starry sky embraced everything.
"Don't you want to make a wish? Isn't it said that after seeing a shooting star, as long as you tie a knot in the corner of your clothes before the shooting star disappears, the wish you made will come true. Little junior brother, you can try it." Liuyun said.
Zhou Wen shook his head and said, "In our hometown, there's no tradition of making wishes on shooting stars. Furthermore, there's a taboo that says shooting stars are unlucky stars. Seeing one is unlucky and may bring bad luck."
"Pooh, pooh, pooh, can't you say something auspicious?" Liuyun said depressedly.
Zhou Wen shrugged his shoulders, said nothing more, and looked into the lake.
The starlight poured down like a galaxy and fell into the lake, forming spots of light in the water. They were so dense that it seemed as if countless stars had fallen into the lake, and it really looked like a sea of stars.
Zhou Wen focused on those light spots and was surprised to find that the light spots were actually small balls like planets. Those small balls were like miniature planets. The entire lake seemed like a starry universe with countless stars.
What's even more bizarre is that those small balls that look like planets are actually moving according to some rules.
"No wonder this place is called the Endless Starry Sea!" Looking at the starlight still falling into the lake, Zhou Wen finally understood why this small lake was called the Endless Starry Sea.
Liuyun smiled and said, "Don't underestimate such a lake. There are countless stars in it. If you enter the lake now, you will be sucked into the sea of stars. It is very likely that you will be lost in the sea of stars forever and never get out."
Zhou Wen looked around but didn't see the small hand pattern, so he asked Liuyun: "How do you want to enter the Endless Star Sea, and where is the Fighting Star Beast?"
"The Fighting Star Beast is on those small balls. Those balls look small, but once we get down to the lake, we'll find that they are actually planets. On them are all kinds of terrifying star beasts, from mortal to mythical. The Fighting Star Beast is one of the mythical star beasts."
After a pause, Liuyun continued, "After the meteor shower stops, we can go down. But you must follow me then. Don't make the wrong move. Otherwise, if you get lost in the sea of stars and enter some strange planets, it will be difficult to get out again."
"I'd better take a look outside first." Zhou Wen walked slowly around the lake, trying to see if there was a small hand pattern.
Because the lake is very small, he only walked around it in half an hour during the day and did not find any small hand pattern. Now that the sea of stars has appeared, he might find something.
The inside of the lake is like the starry sky, but the outside is still so big, giving people a very magical feeling.
Zhou Wen walked around the lake, carefully looking at every inch of it, but still couldn't find the little hand pattern.
Just when I was feeling disappointed, my eyes suddenly caught sight of a glowing stone tablet at the bottom of the lake. The stone tablet was lying flat on the bottom of the lake, with many star patterns on it, like a star map.
"What is that?" Zhou Wen asked Liuyun, pointing at the stone tablet at the bottom of the lake.
"That's the Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun Monument. As long as you can comprehend the mystery of the star map on it, you can comprehend the Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun Art. This is also the key to my ability to absorb and comprehend the divine skill of Stealing the Stars." Liuyun said.
Liuyun knew that it was not easy to comprehend the Stealing the World Monument. It not only required extremely high comprehension, but also a special physique.
Not to mention that Zhou Wen didn't have a special physique that was compatible with the Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun Art. Even if he did, Zhou Wen, who was already at an epic level, probably wouldn't change to the Vitality Art and start over again.
Zhou Wen actually no longer had much interest in the various Qi Jue techniques. There were too many of them for him to practice them all. It was not difficult to simulate the Qi Jue techniques, but it was very difficult to improve them.
However, since the "Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun" technique is a necessary configuration for the "Stealing the Stars" hand, Zhou Wen plans to try and see if he can simulate it using the "Mi Xian Jing".
After practicing the Mysterious Immortal Scripture, Zhou Wen carefully examined the stone tablet. The star map on the stone tablet was constantly changing, making it difficult to figure out what it meant.
There is no text on it, which makes it difficult to understand.
"Liuyun was able to comprehend the Qi Jue from such a star map. He is truly a genius." When Zhou Wen looked at the star map carefully, he made an unexpected discovery.
On the corner of the stone tablet, there was actually a small hand pattern carved. However, the stars on the stone tablet were shining brightly, while the hand pattern was carved on the corner and was covered with moss. In addition, it was separated by the lake. If it were not for the starlight and Zhou Wen's good eyesight, he would not be able to see it at all.
"Big Brother, can we see the Stealing Heaven and Earth Stealing Monument during the day?" Zhou Wen asked Liuyun.
"The stele is still there during the day, but you can't see the starlight flowing on it. It's just a blank stele. Even if you go to see it, it's useless." Liuyun saw that the meteor shower had ended and said to Zhou Wen, "Okay, let's go down now."
"I thought about it. The Endless Star Sea is so dangerous. My luck has been very bad recently. I also saw the unlucky star, so I decided not to go down. If you go down, please help me see if you can get the vitality crystal of the Fighting Star Beast." Zhou Wen said.
"Junior brother, you didn't seem to say that before? Didn't you say that people can't hide at home just because they are unlucky... Why are you suddenly superstitious again?" Liuyun looked at Zhou Wen with a puzzled look on his face and said.
Zhou Wen thought to himself, "Before, I didn't have the little hand pattern, so of course I had to go out and take risks. Now that I've found the little hand pattern and downloaded the game, I can go home and comfortably grind dungeons. Why would I go out and take risks?"
Of course, Zhou Wen couldn't tell Liuyun this, so he said, "Actually, I mainly want to come and see this Stealing Heaven and Changing the Sun Stealing Monument. Since I can see it here, I won't go down. If you want to go down, go ahead. If you don't want to go down, you can stay with me to watch and comprehend the Stealing Heaven and Changing the Sun Stele."
Liu Yun muttered to himself, "I've looked at this broken stele thousands and tens of thousands of times. Why do I still need to look at it? You don't have my Zhu Tian Xing Vein Body, how can you see the flowers? Even if you were to look at it for another ten thousand years, you still wouldn't be able to comprehend the art of stealing the sky and replacing the sun."
The reason why Liuyun was able to comprehend the art of stealing the sky and replacing the sun was because the star map on the stone tablet triggered the star veins in his body, allowing the star veins to sense the trajectory of the stars, which enabled him to gain some understanding.
Without the star veins in the sky, it is completely useless to just look at the star map.
