After changing the topic, Wang Tuo stopped wandering around and the two of them went straight to the city center.
The closer you get to the city center, the wider the roads become. However, the number of pedestrians on the road does not decrease, but instead becomes increasingly crowded, almost to the point of being shoulder to shoulder, and they are all heading in the same direction.
After squeezing through the last intersection, we finally arrived at the Stone Square. The view suddenly became clear and the congestion was much better.
When Xiang Sheng looked up, he saw a rich purple light descending from the sky, majestic and solemn. Everyone who came to watch was awe-inspiring and did not dare to make any noise. They even subconsciously lowered their voices when talking to each other.
Her eyes focused, and she could immediately see the two huge stone tablets in the purple light.
Is this the Firefly Monument?
These two stone tablets look exactly the same, but if you look closely, you can see the difference between them. The one on the left has obvious scratches and looks much older than the one on the right.
She glanced at Wang Tuo, who was still standing there in a daze, staring blankly, and quietly moved to the left, passing through the thick purple light circle, getting closer to the stone tablet on the left.
Densely packed ancient handwriting immediately caught the eye, each stroke crisscrossing, the strokes either soft or sharp, all filled with faint traces of time.
Due to the erosion of time, most of the words on the stone tablet are no longer recognizable. Xiang Sheng looked at it for a while before he could vaguely recognize the names of a few people.
What was the world of cultivation like tens of thousands of years ago?
Xiang Sheng couldn't help but think about it.
When she was in the Chiyan Sect, she had read a miscellaneous book called "Records of the True Sea of Dongzhou", which mentioned that an unknown catastrophe had occurred in the world of cultivation 20,000 years ago.
No one knows what happened during the catastrophe, nor does anyone know why it caused it.
Almost all cultivators died in that catastrophe, so the history of the cultivation world was blank for a very long time.
It was not until the ancestors of the five major sects successively discovered the ancient relics of cultivation and re-entered the path of cultivation that the world of cultivation continued to recover and achieved its current prosperity.
Xiang Sheng suddenly thought of the formation spirit of Xuanwang City.
It is undoubtedly an ancient creature. After thousands of years, the ice will thaw. If I am still alive at that time, perhaps I can ask about ancient things.
He collected his thoughts, looked away from Xiang Sheng, and turned to walk to the firefly monument on the right.
This is undoubtedly what Ying Changfeng mentioned, the new Firefly Monument erected by the five major sects.
After tonight, all the writing on this firefly stele will be erased, and a new ranking will be produced.
And now, it still displays the ranking of sects from the Dongzhou Competition five hundred years ago.
Xiang Sheng glanced around and immediately saw that the first one on the list was none other than the Fengyue Sect, whom she had completely offended.
The three in the middle were Guimu Valley, Qianxing Palace, and Baihua Valley. Unsurprisingly, the Blazing Flame Sect ranked last among the five major sects.
Most of the young monks gathered here, and there was no shortage of conversations.
"My master told me that the Blazing Flame Sect had already declined five hundred years ago, and it was only thanks to a few older disciples that it held on."
"In this East Continent Competition, many sects have shown their strength. I'm afraid that the Blazing Flame Sect's fall to the eighth rank is a foregone conclusion."
"It's a pity that Lu Jin died too early. If he were still alive, he might have helped the Blazing Flame Sect survive for another 500 years."
Someone snorted coldly, "Don't you understand? This is exactly why Lu Jin died."
"Shut up..."
The sound gradually faded away, and Xiang Sheng withdrew his gaze indifferently.
She didn't care where Wang Tuo went. She turned around and was about to go back. She glanced at a corner of the crowd inadvertently and saw a gentle old man smiling at her.
Xiang Sheng's pupils suddenly shrank, and a chill instantly rose in his heart.
It's him!
She recognized him at a glance. The old man was the mysterious man who gave her the "Breath Concealment Technique" in Xuanwang City!
She walked over without saying a word, but before she took a few steps, the old man disappeared like smoke, as if he had never appeared.
Xiang Sheng paused, his eyes darkening slightly.
He was talking to her last time, why didn't he even give her a chance to get close to him this time?
"What are you looking at?"
Wang Tuo's voice suddenly came from behind.
Xiang Sheng's body trembled slightly, and when he came to his senses, his expression immediately returned to normal. He turned around and said, "Nothing."
Wang Tuo looked at Xiang Sheng strangely, but without asking any further questions, he said, "Let's go back. These two big rocks are boring to look at for too long."
Xiang Sheng pursed his lips and said, "Before we go back, let's go to one more place."
Wang Tuo was slightly startled, "Where are we going?"
A moment later, at Tianqing Pavilion in North City.
Wang Tuo stood next to Xiang Sheng with an uncomfortable look on his face. Seeing many cultivators pointing at him in the distance, he secretly groaned in his heart.
Why go anywhere else but come to this damn place? It's so embarrassing.
He secretly glanced at Xiang Sheng beside him, but found that he was calm and composed, his face was not red and he was not breathing heavily, as if he could not hear the conversation around him at all.
Wang Tuo was secretly shocked. In terms of shamelessness, he was far inferior to Brother Zhu.
At this time, the servant finally came out and presented a file with both hands, "Dear guest, here is what you requested."
"Thank you very much."
Xiang Sheng took the file and turned to leave.
Wang Tuo quickly followed, shielding his face, and said, "When you finish reading it, can you lend it to me?"
Xiang Sheng glanced at him and said, "Go back first."
Wang Tuo was speechless.
The two of them quickened their pace and returned to the Wanjianmen stronghold. Ying Changfeng, who had been eagerly waiting for their return, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw them return.
When Xiang Sheng saw Ying Changfeng, he was moved and said, "I just bought an intelligence file. Fellow Daoist Ying is knowledgeable and experienced. Why don't you take a look at it together?"
