Chapter 893: Prehistoric Great Discovery
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
After spending a few days, the many Creators and Deity Emperors finally managed to drag the ship all the way to the King’s palace before they all scattered back to Azure Dragon Gate. The castle walls around Azure Dragon Gate were crushed by this ship when it was salvaged, hence, they had to repair the damage with the star sand in the river.
Apart from that, the Deity Emperors, Creators and even Imperial Emperors had to shower their blood onto the compound, carving their totem patterns onto the walls, creating totem talismans and formations before linking the Dao totem patterns with those from the other walls in order to have the newly built walls be strong enough to withstand the star waves.
If not, they wouldn’t even be able to withstand the impact of the waves, let alone an invasion.
Everyone threw themselves to their own tasks again while Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan boarded the ancient warship. Zhong Yue placed his palm onto this ship, an ancient artifact traced all the way back to the prehistoric era, one that had been around for a very long time. As he touched the ship, all he felt was cold metal but he failed to identify the metal used to build this ship.
He also had no clue as to what kind of power blew a hole in this ship, but there was one thing that he was certain of, and it was that the power that opened up a hole on this ship was something extraordinary!
All over the ship’s surface were all sorts of alluring totem patterns, which were completely different from everything he knew, making them incredibly mysterious.
Zhong Yue tried to decipher the totem patterns but he did not gain anything as the Dao techniques and arts used onto this ship were completely counter to everything that the Sui Sovereign created, denying the possibility of understanding the prehistoric techniques and arts through the current totem pattern system!
“A foreign system!”
Zhong Yue widened his eyes in shock and he looked at these patterns incredulously.
This was something he had never come across before!
The cultivation system he was familiar with was one created by the Sui Sovereign, the totem cultivation system was made by Great Sui and everything was set after Great Sui created language, words, and calendar!
The divine words themselves were all totem patterns. By learning these divine words, one would be able to visualize and cultivate; the divine language contained the wonders of heaven and earth and the calendar, Great Mountain Fu Wood Solar Calendar, was there to record how the universe and Dao functioned.
With that trinity, the Sui Sovereign was able to unite the wild universe, where everyone adopted the same completed cultivation system from that point on!
After that, everything created, the techniques and arts, including Fuxi’s creation on the Six Paths, Hou Tu’s creation of the Reincarnations, they were all just new elements that were added to this system.
Within this system, techniques and arts were all derived from totem patterns, and so was the Dao.
Whatever Zhong Yue had learned and created, were also new additions to this system.
Things might have been improving and changing at every moment but they were still within the system.
Even after the Sui Sovereign’s time, the innate gods were also cultivating with this system continued to implement their own insights into it, evolving it to its current state.
And that was why Great Sui had achieved something no other Heavenly Monarchs could, making him unrivaled as a Heavenly Monarch since the title’s inception.
However, everything on this wrecked ship didn’t seem to belong under the system that Great Sui created; it was a completely foreign cultivation system that was eliminated, a method of cultivation that died out over time. It was probably eliminated for being too hard to cultivate while competing with the current cultivation system; to the prenate beings, from the levels of Qi Practitioners all the way to the monarch level; they were all traceable and they could advance into the next level step by step.
And as for the natural-born innate gods, they too, could cultivate this system, granting them a chance to catch a glimpse of the Imperial Emperor stage, or even the level of Dao God that was above all non-innate beings!
“But this does not mean that the current cultivation system is stronger than the one in the prehistoric era. The prehistoric cultivation system definitely shines bright in its way except that it was not as competitive as the one right now.”
Zhong Yue thought and said, “The only problem here now is how to comprehend the wonders and secrets hidden in these patterns….”
Yin Fanxuan was also clueless; though she was an Innate Saint Spirit Body with high affinity to the Daos, she had been learning under the totem cultivation system all her life. It was difficult for her to think beyond its confines.
After flying around the ship, they remembered the various patterns on the ship and boarded the ship again, only to be met with even more strange-looking patterns and zero gain.
As compared to totem patterns, these patterns were much simpler; their alignments were unique but less complicated, which was very different from totem patterns where even the simplest techniques contained more than 10 types of totem patterns; complicated techniques in the monarch level had billions!
The patterns on the ship, on the other hand, were very simple but it was because of its wonder and strange simplicity that gave them the most trouble to understand.
Zhong Yue then activated his divine third eye, examining these patterns, only to notice that no other and detailed information on these patterns.
But he did not stop there. From his eyes, the sun and moon emerged and again, he continued deciphering the wonders in these patterns only to be greeted by failure in his attempts once again.
Zhong Yue then took out the innate divine saber that had returned to Imperial Emperor level; it could now decipher almost everything, even the techniques, arts, body and Yuan Shen of an Imperial Emperor.
He turned his saber around and reflected the patterns’ alignments but strangely, nothing appeared on the saber’s body.
Without any clue, even if Zhong Yue possessed absurdly powerful calculation capability, he couldn’t do anything at all.
Strange, really strange… Maybe, I can ask Senior Martial Brother Feng Xiaozhong….
His eyes flickered, With his intelligence, perhaps he could unveil the secrets in these patterns.
“Darling, this ship is not in its full form!”
Yin Fanxuan suddenly noticed something and she quickly called for Zhong Yue, pointed to some patterns on the ship’s body, “Take a look at these!”
Zhong Yue immediately walked forward and examined the patterns that were linked in a shape of a wing and he murmured, “This ship has wings!”
“And it’s not just a pair!”
The now shocked Zhong Yue looked around and countless wing-shaped patterns appeared before his eyes!
There were about a thousand pairs of wing-shaped patterns and they were carved onto the ship like paddles!
Without even thinking, Zhong Yue could already imagine how the ship looked with its wings all spread out when it was activated!
What a strange maneuvering way….
Zhong Yue tried channeled his energy into the ship right away, but the ship just wouldn’t absorb his energy!
Yin Fanxuan gave it a try as well but ended up with the same result.
Zhong Yue thought for a moment and he activated his Innate Yi Dao, printing it onto one of the wing-shaped patterns. Then, the ship seemed to turn alive and as the wing flapped, it sliced the dimension into countless pieces!
When it stretched out, the wing revealed its few thousand mile-wide wingspans, and with another flap, they had already flown past a sacred mountain in Heaven Suppressing Grand Stronghold.
And right before their eyes, the mountain was shattered into dust by the vibration created by the ship’s momentum!
The sacred mountains around here were constantly prayed at for god knows how many years, bestowed with immense sturdiness but before this wing, the mountain did not even last for a second!
And this ancient ship was slanting under the immense power delivered by the wing; this ship that required at least 60 Creators and hundreds of gods to be moved was being lifted by the wing!
Zhong Yue retracted his Innate Yi Dao and the slanting ship immediately fell back to its original position. With a few flaps, the wing stretched back and turned back into patterns.
Innate Yi Dao is working? Then how about the other innate Dao?
Zhong Yue immediately put his thoughts into action. First, he channeled the Innate Celestial and Demon Dao into the wing-shaped patterns and after nothing happened, he tried the Yin and Yang and the Lightning Dao, and nothing happened still.
Yin Fanxuan tested as well but she just can’t activate the patterns.
How did the Innate Yi Dao activate the ship’s wings? Is it because of some sort of traits within Innate Yi Dao that was compatible with these prehistoric patterns?
Zhong Yue’s curiosity burnt brightly; with the Innate Yi Dao able to activate the ship’s wings, Zhong Yue might just be able to learn more about the secrets within these prehistoric patterns!
However, he did not start his study right away. They entered the interior of the ship to take a look at the dragon’s skeleton, which belonged to an innate celestial dragon. Even after his death, his skeleton still emitted a terrifying innate god’s presence.
When they stood before this innate dragon’s skeleton, the two young Heavenly Deities felt like they were extremely tiny like an ant!
Zhong Yue looked at this dragon skeleton in awe and all in a sudden, he noticed something, which caused him to exclaim, “There are no patterns on his skeleton!”
Yin Fanxuan who also noticed this was also confused for every god would try to mark their bones with Dao to further enhance their strength.
And it was the same for this ship that was filled with the mysterious patterns. On the body of an innate god Zhong Yue once saw at Feng Xiaozhong’s, there were also no innate totem patterns. Hence, it was almost impossible for this innate celestial dragon to have no patterns on his bone at all!
But what lay before them was precisely that!
And this revelation had entirely gone against what they learned and knew!
“Dao bone!”
Zhong Yue and Yin Fanxuan shouted at the same time, “This skeleton is an innate Dao bone!”
The two looked at each other with a pounding heart.
Innate Dao bone did not require the Dao’s brandings for they were the Dao themselves!
Hence, this innate Dao bone did not have any Dao patterns as it was formed from Dao.
And that was what all gods, including the innate gods died for!
Born as a weapon, Dao, and art, such was the perfect innate Dao bone!
And now, such a wonderful thing in this world was forged into the keel of this ship!
The skeleton felt alive and seemingly managed to detect the Lei Zhe bloodline flowing in Zhong Yue’s body; as lights glowed on the surface of the skeleton, the innate Leizhe bloodline contained within the Fuxi bloodline coursing within his body boiled and the bloodline heritage of Leizhe was completely activated!
This bloodline connection… This is a Leizhe Celestial Race’s dragon’s skeleton! It definitely isn’t Leizhe Ancient God’s…. I need Senior Martial Brother Feng!”
Zhong Yue couldn’t suppress the excitement in his bloodline and he looked at this innate Dao bone that was entirely formed of Dao as he thought, I have to get him here! Right, Bi and An too! They are also of the Lei Zhe bloodline!”
