Chapter 130: Mural

"So it's like that…" Chen Heng nodded.
Following this, he looked ahead.
Now that he had arrived here, it was time to take his spoils.
As such, he headed forwards and followed Dan Qingzi's direction to a secret room.
Before entering the secret room, Chen Heng thought that it would be filled with spirit materials, magic tools, and other treasures.
However, after entering, Chen Heng was completely stunned.
The secret room was incredibly vast, and there were many shelves.
It seemed that this was a place for storing things.
However, the shelves were all completely empty.
Seeing this, let alone Chen Heng, even Dan Qingzi was stunned.
"What's going on?"
Looking at the empty shelves, he felt immense disbelief, "Why is there nothing here? Where did it all go?"
As a disciple of the Ten Thousand Wave Sword Sect, he was very familiar with this secret room; in fact, some things had been personally organised by himself back then.
Some of the magic tools that had been stored here even had a connection to him.
However, there was nothing here.
Whether they were magic tools, legacies, spirit materials, or medicinal pills, they were all gone.
It was as if this place had been completely cleared out; even a beggar would not be able to find anything of value here.
Dan Qingzi's voice continuously mumbled in Chen Heng's mind; it seemed that he was unable to take this blow.
However, Chen Heng quickly calmed himself down.
After all, he had never seen those things before, so he did not feel much, only that it was a bit of a pity.
He slowly went up and looked around the surroundings.
It seemed that there were some traces that there had indeed been things here. It was as if the person who had come here did not hide anything and directly took everything here away, not leaving behind a single scrap.
"They were quite thorough," Chen Heng could not help but sigh after looking around.
However, this was not strange—if it was Chen Heng, he also would not have stopped until he took away everything from here.
It was just that someone had arrived here before him.
"How is this possible…"
In his mind, Dan Qingzi was still mumbling, unable to accept it.
Before, he had resided in the Silver Splendour Sword as the sword spirit, and he would be able to detect anyone who entered the historical remnant.
This was unless someone went through the outer regions of the historical remnant and teleported into the secret realm from another place.
But how was that possible?
Even though the things here were valuable, they were not much to the powerful experts who could do such a thing.
None of them would deign to do such a thing.
"Just what is going on?" No matter how he thought about it, he could not understand, and he continuously muttered to himself.
Seeing him like this, Chen Heng ignored him and continued to look around.
As he carefully examined the surroundings, he discovered something.
"This is…" After walking to a wall, he looked up.
On the wall, there were all kinds of pictures engraved there clearly, and the scenes were quite simple.
The first one had a strange little person waking up in confusion in a carriage.
Behind the little person, there was another little person, who looked exactly the same as the first—except that it looked a bit older—slowly drawing near to the first little person, before fusing together.
This was the first picture.
Seeing this, Chen Heng inwardly frowned and felt somewhat strange.
Following this, he looked at the next picture.
In the second picture, the focus was still that little person. That little person sat at the front of the carriage and was talking with another little person dressed in armor.
The third picture showed the armored little person bringing away the first little person while other little people were sleeping.
Seeing this, Chen Heng's body froze.
"This is…"
A feeling of shock welled up in his body.
These pictures clearly depicted himself and Song Qi.
The main character was Song Qi, while Chen Heng was the armored little person.
The first picture most likely showed Song Qi waking up, as well as why his personality had changed so much.
The second picture showed Song Qi calling Chen Heng to his carriage to prepare to escape.
The third picture showed them secretly escaping during the night.
"This…" Chen Heng felt a sense of ridiculousness.
Chen Heng continued to look at the murals.
After the main little person and the armored little person escaped, they reached a city. After discussing together, they entered a historical remnant.
Within the historical remnant, they obtained many things: spirit grass, precious swords, magic tools…
This was exactly what Song Qi and Chen Heng had experienced.
However, the final picture was different.
The final picture seemed to show that Song Qi's little person discovered this place and accidentally came into his secret realm, and he saw these pictures.
The final picture depicted the little person looking at the murals with an expression of shock.
Seeing this, Chen Heng deeply breathed in.
Even as someone from a different world, Chen Heng could not help but feel quite shocked as he looked at these murals.
However, seeing the different conclusion, he realized something.
Did reality change because of my existence? Chen Heng thought to himself.
If he had not entered the simulation, then this body's soul would not have been powerful enough to sense Dan Qingzi, and he would not have become Dan Qingzi's disciple.
Without Dan Qingzi's existence, Chen Heng's body would not have come into this secret realm.
"So there's nothing wrong with the murals; it's just that my arrival added some variables?"
Chen Heng felt quite awed.
"So cultivators can do such a thing?" Chen Heng did not know when the murals had been carved, but from how old they looked, they were definitely from before Chen Heng had come to this world.
That meant that long ago, someone had predicted Song Qi's future, so they had left these murals?
Undoubtedly, it was a truly powerful expert who had done this. Even in the world of cultivation, they would most likely be quite a major figure.
However, why did such a major figure come here and leave these murals here?
Was there something special about Song Qi?
Chen Heng turned and looked at the first mural.
Within the carriage, an older-looking little person who looked exactly the same as the other little person was slowly approaching before fusing together.
From the details in the mural, it could be seen that the two little people's appearances looked exactly the same, except that one was older and one was younger.
What was the mural trying to show?
An older one and a younger one fusing together… Chen Heng thought to himself as he made a guess.
Perhaps native residents of this world would not be able to guess this, and even if they did, they would be slightly off.
However, Chen Heng was someone from another world, who had gone back in time to his own body.
It could be said that what the mural depicted was something that had happened to Chen Heng himself.
So… he went back in time? he suddenly thought to himself.
In the real world, he had gone back to when he was still young.
It seemed that what had happened to Song Qi was most likely the same.
At that moment, Chen Heng thought back to Song Qi's actions.
In the past, Song Qi had been incredibly weak and cowardly. Not only did he not have his opinions, he was scared of strangers.
However, on that day, he seemed to have become a different person.
