Outside the cave, the group used their divine senses to investigate and found that there was no one inside.
However, everyone still dared not let their guard down and remained on edge at all times.
Just as Monica had said, the crack was relatively narrow for the first few tens of meters.
But once inside, it suddenly became incredibly spacious.
Staring at the cave, which was hundreds of meters wide, everyone was stunned.
Then, turning around, I saw a smooth cross-section.
His eyes widened in horror once again.
This thing is basically a stopper made of stones hundreds of meters long and wide.
It's like trying to block up the cave, but why is there still a crack?
At this moment, their suspicions from when they were outside were finally confirmed.
This really is a blocked door.
Now I understand why Monica was so calm earlier; she clearly knew all along.
The cave was pitch black, and even though everyone was a cultivator, they found it difficult to adapt at first, so they quickly took out powerful flashlights.
The huge stone plug had a perfectly flat cross-section, as if it had been sliced through by an incredibly sharp sword.
"Look everyone, what's that?"
Chen Weiguo suddenly shone his powerful flashlight on a certain spot on the stone wall.
There were many mysterious runes engraved there, seemingly chaotic, yet arranged according to some strange and profound rules.
Each rune was deeply embedded in the stone and painted with a pale gold color, though the golden light had long since faded.
Chu Mo's first impression was that it looked like golden blood.
He quickly dismissed this strange thought from his mind.
Where in the world can you find golden blood?
Everyone was shocked and began to discuss it.
"What kind of script is this? I've never seen it before."
"It's neither oracle bone script nor bronze script; it's somewhat similar to the Shui script of the Shui people, yet it also seems quite different."
Several knowledgeable elders were filled with astonishment and offered a variety of speculations.
They found nothing, so they took some photos and continued walking.
Feeling completely bewildered, I walked forward for a few hundred meters more.
Monica then stopped and pointed to the ground not far away, saying:
"That golden corpse was discovered here, along with that phrase."
Everyone looked in the direction she pointed.
On the stone ground, there was a line of seal script characters.
The words were carved with fingers, in a bold and unrestrained style, clearly written in a very hurried and urgent manner.
Chu Mo could only vaguely guess one or two words; he couldn't understand the rest.
I quickly took out my phone and compared the prepared images and text with the text, and sure enough, it matched the seal script.
Of course, the original text didn't say: "The calamity of this gathering is merely the other gods reaping the spoils, and it must be..."
However, when translated into modern language, the meaning remains roughly the same.
Zhang Qidao asked with a puzzled look:
"This is oracle bone script, also known as Great Seal script, which originated in the Yin-Shang period and has a history of more than 3,000 years, but the timeline doesn't match up."
"If the person who wrote these words was truly from ten thousand years ago, why would they use language from thousands of years later?"
"Conversely, this means that the era in which this person appeared could not possibly be more than four thousand years ago."
The others also looked puzzled, their faces filled with confusion and doubt.
Mu Yan looked directly at Monica and asked in confusion:
"Miss Monica, are you sure your analysis of that body is accurate? Is it really ten thousand years old?"
"We were also very shocked at the time. We had several authoritative institutions conduct tests, and they all came to the same conclusion: there was no mistake!"
Monica's tone was very certain.
After pondering for a moment, Chu Mo frowned and said:
"Mr. Zhang, is it possible that oracle bone script was not created more than 3,000 years ago, but was already in use 10,000 years ago?"
Everyone was stunned by this revolutionary conclusion, but no one immediately refuted it.
Because too many clues suggest that many of the beliefs held by people over thousands of years may be wrong.
If that's the case, Chu Mo's hypothesis might not be impossible.
It may even be the only conclusion that can explain all of this.
With their questions in mind, they continued walking for about 100 meters.
Then.
Then we saw a pitch-black vortex that occupied the entire cave.
It was terrifyingly deep, like a black hole, exuding an eerie and dangerous aura.
Even with a strong flashlight shining on it, you can't see anything inside at all.
It was like that dark vortex that absorbed all the light.
Even though everyone was somewhat prepared, they were still stunned by what they saw.
A strong sense of palpitation arose from the depths of my heart.
Just then.
Chu Mo's expression changed, and his heart was filled with turmoil.
He quickly probed his divine sense into the teleportation array plate.
Just a few days ago, the little butterfly, which had fallen into a deep sleep after absorbing the so-called spirituality of Walker's sacred artifact, had already awakened.
At this moment, it was darting up and down in fear and anxiety, anxiously reminding others in a childish voice:
"Master, please don't go in! It's very dangerous inside!"
"Xiao Liu, have you been here before? What's behind this?" Chu Mo asked anxiously.
"I feel like I've been here before, it's very familiar, but I don't remember it very clearly. I only know that it's very dangerous inside."
The little butterfly looked bewildered, tilted its head and thought for a moment, then added in horror:
"In my memory, there was a blurry shadow there, it was terrifying!"
Because of their blood ties, Chu Mo could clearly sense its fear at this moment.
I was deeply shocked and curious. What could be so unsettling as to make it so uneasy?
