Chapter 727: Chapter 249: God Stone Guardian, Sealed Array (5353 words)
The night was quiet and peaceful.
Chen Fan and three others were having a drink in his back garden.
Feng Tianlin, holding a wine pot, served them respectfully.
Suddenly, Steward Dong came in with two other people.
“Principal? Director? Why are you here…”
Feng Tianlin went over to greet them.
The newcomers were the Vice Principal and Director of Instruction from the First Martial Arts University.
The Director of Instruction said, “Isn’t Chen Fan at home? We’ve sent him many messages and called him many times, but he hasn’t responded.”
“Oh… Lame Grandfather and the others said that Chen Fan and Chu Xuan have gone to the Secret Realm for cultivation.” Feng Tianlin said, “I don’t know when they will be back.”
“Do you need anything from him?”
“They’ve gone to the Secret Realm for cultivation?” The Vice Principal frowned and said, “Well, it’s not urgent, we just wanted to discuss his plans to challenge other Martial Arts Universities.”
“It’s been over half a month since he defeated Zong Hao…”
“He’s busy.” Lame Grandfather said without raising his head. “When they’re back in a few days, let Chu Xuan handle it.”
“Huh?” The Vice Principal and Director of Instruction were both taken aback.
Just then…
The figure of a man flickered, and Li Mu appeared next to Lame Grandfather.
Lame Grandfather rolled his eyes and said, “Are you here again to urge us to forge your Armor? Do you really think you can order us around like a bunch of old mules?”
The deaf turned a blind eye.
The mute merely sipped his wine, not paying any attention to Li Mu’s arrival.
Li Mu shook his head, “Something big has happened… Where’s Chen Fan?”
The mute and deaf both looked up.
Compared to their true selves, Li Mu’s strength was naturally much weaker.
But in Blue Star, in Tang Country, Li Mu was a powerful figure who could cause an earthquake with just a stomp of his feet.
So when he said something big had happened…
Lame Grandfather was mildly taken aback, “Be more specific!”
Li Mu glanced at Feng Tianlin and the Principal, who were all ears. With a gesture of his right hand…
“Whoosh!”
The Principal and three others including Feng Tianlin found themselves suddenly teleported to the First Martial Arts University Campus.
…
In the Garden.
Li Mu said gravely, “Not long ago, a disturbing power came out of the 5th Restricted Area…”
“What?” The three were taken aback.
Li Mu said, “I sent people to investigate…”
He continued, “Here’s what happened… Different forces who have entered the 5th Restricted Area teamed up and managed to break open a hole in the Ancient Formation that may contain the Five-colored Divine Stone. They then sent a person from the Nightmare Hall inside.”
“The guy from Nightmare Hall was severely injured by the power of the Formation as soon as he got in, and then he was thrown back out.”
“That’s not the point…”
“The point is, at the moment when they teared open the Formation, I felt a surge of indescribable fear!”
“That dreadful aura escaped from the Ancient Formation and left the 5th Restricted Area!”
Lame Grandfather narrowed his eyes slightly, “How dreadful?”
Li Mu was silent for a moment before saying, “Compared to the 6th Sky Demon King, it’s at least just as powerful, if not more so!”
The three of them looked at each other in silence.
They had all crossed paths with the 6th Sky Demon King.
They had also seen beings stronger than the 6th Sky Demon King.
But…
Lame Grandfather subtly nodded and vanished into thin air.
The next moment, Lame Grandfather’s voice sounded in Chen Fan’s room, “Xiaofan? Blind Man?!”
After calling a few times…
Lame Grandfather reappeared besides the stone table, with a rather grim expression, “It’s a bit troublesome…”
“The disturbance you sensed might be related to Xiaofan and the others.”
…
Outside the mountain-top palace.
Chen Fan held the Heaven-severing Demon Knife, on full alert!
Inside the palace, a group of little stone men, each less than a meter tall, were slowly walking out.
[Monster Name]: Thunder Stone Man (Guardian of the Divine Stone)
Combat Power Level: ???
Species Level: ???
Monster Attribute: Thunder
Monster Status: Friendly, happy
If it wasn’t for the “Friendly” and “Happy” listed in the attribute section, Chen Fan would have nearly slashed these little stone men to pieces.
Question marks…
More question marks!
Does that mean these seemingly harmless little stone men are on the same level as the Void Fear Demons he encountered before?
Chen Fan didn’t dare to be careless. Raising his hand, he pointed the blade of the knife at the little stone man and said, “Stand still! Who are you?”
The little stone man stopped in its tracks and responded in a child’s voice, “Stand still, who are you?”
Chen Fan: “I’m asking you!”
Little Stone Man: “I’m asking you!”
Chen Fan: “Are you mimicking me?”
Little Stone Man: “Are you mimicking me?”
Chen Fan: “The last person who did that got his head smashed by me.”
Little Stone Man: “The last person who did that got his head smashed by me.”
