Chapter 131: The Rhythm of Ancient Artifacts
"Ruins? I know that."
Li Fan is also a frequent visitor to Congyun Undersea.
He was also familiar with the ruins scattered across the bottom of the sea in Congyun.
"What do you mean? These ruins belong to that lost civilization?" Li Fan asked.
Zhao Erbao shook his head: "No, no, no, these ruins are all from Cong Yunhai..."
“That’s not right…”
Zhao Erbao scratched his head and made a circle with his hands: "Now this place called Congyunhai is not really a sea."
Li Fan was slightly stunned.
All I heard was Zhao Erbao continue to say: "This should have been a piece of land. But one day..."
"It was suddenly flooded by the sea."
"The ruins at the bottom of the sea belong to the civilization that originally existed on the ground."
"Submerged by sea water..." The scenes that Li Fan had seen at the bottom of the sea in the past emerged in his mind.
The exit of Daxuan is an abyss at the bottom of the sea.
The entrance to the world is a well in the underwater ruins.
Refining the clone and searching for the Heavenly Crystal Sand were also done in a large underwater ruin.
…
He had witnessed these underwater ruins many times, and had also witnessed the drying up of the Congyun Sea.
Since this place can change from sea to mountain, is it possible that this sea was not a sea before?
Theoretically speaking, it should be easy for him to ask such a question.
but……
Something was disturbing his thoughts.
Let him ignore this intentionally or unintentionally.
Some even actively look for other reasons for the formation of the underwater ruins, such as considering it to be caused by an island destroyed by a storm.
Now thinking back, these continuous ruins on the seabed do not look like what the island would look like after it sank.
"This method of disturbing people's minds is very similar to that of Changsheng Tianzun. But in comparison, it is slightly weaker. Once they wake up, their cognition will no longer be affected."
"Above the Hedao, below the Changsheng..."
In an instant, several thoughts flashed through Li Fan's mind.
But Zhao Erbao continued to talk.
"And all these antiquities I collected belong to a completely different civilization."
"It just appeared out of nowhere, like it fell from the sky."
"It's like..."
Li Fan suddenly said, "Like this sea of clouds?"
Zhao Erbao clapped his hands suddenly and said excitedly: "That's right!"
"At first, I searched the bottom of the sea with this doubt in mind, digging everywhere."
"After studying the faults on the sea floor in various locations, I made an amazing discovery."
"You know, it's not uncommon for mountains and rivers to change. Maybe one day, this vast sea of clouds will turn back into land."
"But this transformation process often takes several years or even more than ten years."
"but!"
Zhao Erbao raised his voice and repeated: "But!"
"It only took a short moment for this place to change from land to sea!"
Zhao Erbao became more and more excited as he spoke, and he walked to the miniature model of Cong Yunhai in the room.
With a flick of his finger, the sea water in the model gathered into a ball and flew into Zhao Erbao's palm.
The deeply sunken model slowly returned to its original shape.
“Just like this!”
He grabbed a ball of sea water in his hand and then slammed it down.
“Bang!”
Under the impact, the earth sank deeply, and the sea water surged out from between the fingers, filling the entire depression in an instant.
Mulberry fields turn into oceans in just a flick of the palm!
Li Fan couldn't help but think of the topographic map around Cong Yunhai that he had seen before.
It turns out that it was not "as if", but "just" a gap was forcibly carved out by someone on the mainland!
"This palm, this palm..."
Li Fan imagined the scene at that time, and was dazzled and unable to control himself.
Zhao Erbao also withdrew his hand and stared blankly at the re-formed Cong Yunhai model, wondering what he was thinking.
After a long silence, Zhao Erbao slowly spoke again: "These ancient artifacts I collected should have been carried here by the endless sea water."
Li Fan suddenly remembered the two human corpses he saw at Master Yin's place.
"Aren't they the same kind of people?"
"So that's how it is."
Although the powerful ones above the Hedao can distort people's thinking and cover up their own traces.
But there are always all kinds of geniuses in the world who can detect what has happened in the world through various clues.
My spiritual sense became more and more peaceful. It seemed that Zhao Erbao was not lying.
Li Fan pondered for a moment, then asked, "What you said about the attachments on these ancient artifacts, could it be related to that palm strike?"
Zhao Erbao hesitated for a moment, but finally confessed honestly: "The palm that formed the sea of clouds was so powerful that it was almost like Taoism."
"These objects carried along with him inevitably have been tainted with a hint of the Dao."
“Buried deep in the sea, even after thousands of years, this rhythm still remains.”
“It’s just one thing, the Dao rhyme is so weak that it can’t be detected.
"But the more we collect, the more obvious the residual Dao rhymes will become as they resonate with each other."
“If it reaches a certain level, maybe we can reproduce the complete Dao rhyme.”
"Take a look at the elegance of that palm."
After hearing this, the spiritual reminder in Li Fan's heart finally slowly dissipated.
“So this is where my chance lies.”
"Covering the sea with one palm..."
Seeing that Li Fan did not respond for a long time, Zhao Erbao continued cautiously: "The reason why I did not use the storage ring to transfer these ancient artifacts before was because the remaining Dao rhyme was extremely fragile."
"If you put it in and then take it out, it will most likely destroy the remaining Dao rhyme on it."
“So I have to do it myself.”
Li Fan nodded slightly, agreeing with this statement.
"Come on, take me to see the Dao Yun of this palm that covers the sea!"
Zhao Erbao didn't dare to refuse, so he took Li Fan and went down the stairs of the rock pillar to the largest storage room.
Inside, there are hundreds of antiques of various styles.
There are porcelain bottles, porcelain bowls, small bronze tripods, and even ordinary household iron pots and shovels.
Li Fan closed his eyes and thought.
There is indeed a strange rhythm flowing slowly in this storage room.
However, it is still very weak and it is difficult to gain any magical powers from it.
"How many more items are needed to strengthen this Dao rhythm to the point where it can be comprehended?" Li Fan asked.
Zhao Erbao was a little embarrassed: "It's hard to say. At least it should be several times more than what I have collected so far."
"These ancient artifacts are scattered all over the seabed. It is very difficult to collect them by one person."
"However." He paused, glanced at Li Fan, and said, "If the little girl with a spiritual body could help us, it would definitely be a lot easier."
Li Fan smiled inexplicably.
"Then you better hurry up, because you don't have much time left."
He stretched out his finger and tapped Zhao Erbao's forehead.
"From now on, you will work for me."
