Chapter 668 - The Mystery of the Tombstone

“What should I do?”

“Use the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix to replace the Greenwitch Liquid. But the Heavenly Phoenix’s blood is very hot, so she will burn up if you fill it up as it is.”

“Then what should I do?” Long Chen frowned. He was annoyed that Little Cat hadn\'t told him that before.

“That’s where I come in. Keep her in the Primordial Realm and I will do the rest. I will return her back to normal after some time. By the way, what will my reward be?” Little Cat chuckled.

“Fat Cat, we have been together for a long time, so I will keep it short. You’ve indeed helped us a lot, and even saved my life when I was killed. I, Long Chen, am someone who repays kindness with even more kindness. I won’t mistreat you in the future, and we are technically sworn brothers. Or maybe you think that I’m not fit to be your sworn brother since you are the ‘Divine’ Reincarnation Beast?”

Little Cat made a face of disgust. “Fine, no need to be sentimental with me. I’m not some lady and I won’t fall for your tricks. Go and look at the tombstone while I treat her.”

Long Chen chuckled.

He knew Little Cat would react like that.

Long Chen had a good grasp on Little Cat’s behavior. Little Cat has been dependable in desperate times even though he was a bit of a show-off and exaggerated a lot of his tales.

He let Fat Cat into the Primordial Realm before placing Huangfu Qi inside. The blood of the Heavenly Phoenix was already in the Primordial Realm. As half of its owner, Fat Cat could naturally control it easily.

“By the way, do you want to restore your power one day?” Long Chen suddenly asked.

Fat Cat revealed a bewildered expression before he chuckled bitterly. “That’s impossible, so there’s no need to think about it. It’s already good enough that I get to talk to someone right now.”

Hmm ... It seems he had a difficult past.

Long Chen would always help his sworn brothers no matter what. Even though Little Cat said nothing, Long Chen noted this down in his heart.

There was no such thing as impossible in this world. It had always been an issue of being weak.

Long Chen sighed in relief once Little Cat got busy saving Huangfu Qi. Seeing that Little Cat was doing his best, he was relieved that the entire ordeal was finally about to be over. Long Chen could finally return Huangfu Qi to Huangfu Fengchen safely.

As for Xiaolang, he was resting in a corner of the Primordial Realm, refining the demonic core. He had changed back to his beast form with black flames sputtering out of his body. Occasionally, golden flames belonging to the Divine Phoenix’s bloodline appeared.

In order to help Long Chen obtain the Ancient Token, Xiaolang was doing his best to increase his strength as quickly as possible.

The Ancient Token was extremely important to Long Chen.

Now that everything was done, Long Chen could finally take the time to inspect the strange tombstone. He turned around and saw that the tombstone was covered in holes. It also appeared to have been charred by the flames, resulting in its black color.

If the Heavenly Phoenix hadn\'t crashed into it, Long Chen never would’ve discovered its strangeness.

Fat Cat told me that the tombstone might contain a martial technique belonging to the ancient sect of Sky Isle. I wonder if it\'s true. Long Chen approached the tombstone.

He was five meters away from it, but nothing happened. He sensed no strange energy, so he wasn’t sure how to activate it.

I wonder what kind of secret is contained in the tombstone? Still feeling nothing, he made his way closer until he was standing just inches away from the tombstone, yet nothing happened. He plucked his courage and tapped it.

Due to the death of the Heavenly Phoenix, the temperature in the surroundings plummeted rapidly. The air had already cooled down a lot, but the tombstone was surprisingly cold.

Why did this thing deflect the Heavenly Phoenix, while nothing happened to me? Long Chen was confused. He then placed his palm on the tombstone and rubbed it. He felt the tombstone’s little fractures and holes, but nothing happened. He did this for an hour until he was familiar with the surface of the tombstone, but still, nothing happened.

Long Chen started to use force.

He gently punched it, but nothing happened other than a dull thud. It was similar to a regular tombstone.

Do I need to use as much force as the Heavenly Phoenix crashing into it? Will I get deflected?

Long Chen grumbled.

He thought he could’ve obtained whatever martial technique was infused into the tombstone by getting close to it.

Little Cat took a bit of time to teach him while saving Huangfu Qi.

“Martial techniques of higher levels are not that simple to cultivate, especially ones hidden by an expert of a sect this grand. Don’t be hasty and wait for nighttime to come. Once the moon is out, you can look at it and maybe learn something after two hours or so. But don’t just stare at it. You need to feel its presence.”

“Is it that difficult?” Long Chen pouted. It had been smooth sailing for him when it came to cultivating martial techniques in the past. He had never felt a sense of reverence or awe even when he was cultivating the Wind God Kick and the Soul Dispersing Dragon Claw. It had come to him naturally.

But the technique in the tombstone was most likely stronger than his techniques, since it was that difficult to learn it. Long Chen assumed the technique hidden in the tombstone would be as strong as the Martial Overlord Seal.

But the Five Emperor Seals must be even stronger since it\'s an Emperor-tier technique of indeterminate strength. But how could it be weak if it\'s a technique derived by the only five Divine Martial Realm experts of the Ten Thousand Nations Territory?

The treasure of the five emperors located in the Ancient Graveyard must be its true essence. Still, even the individual seals are quite strong already.

Long Chen dared not think too much of the Five Emperor Seals. Both the Scarlet and Golden Emperor Seals had been taken by Zhao Danchen, so Long Chen could only start cultivating the Five Emperor Seals after taking them.

So the mysterious technique right in front of his eyes was a good chance to increase his strength right now.

He needed a strong offensive martial technique!

Patience was an important trait for strong cultivators to have. Long Chen knew that there was a reason behind Little Cat’s words, so he waited. He stepped ten meters back and started feeling out the tombstone using his five senses.

I need to wait for the moonlight? Long Chen wasn’t in a rush.

He had just reached the Third Earthly Martial Stage, so there were still parts of his cultivation that he had to consolidate.

He had to reinforce a lot of his techniques in order to strengthen them.

He was currently at the peak of the Divine Martial Empire.

His only enemies were Zhao Danchen and Lady Xuan!

It was soon nighttime.

The moonlight penetrated the clouds and hid Sky Isle.

Everything\'s so blurry now. I doubt I will be able to see anything on the tombstone now. Long Chen was confused.

Little Cat was in the critical stages of rescuing Huangfu Qi, so Long Chen couldn’t interrupt him. Long Chen had to comprehend it on his own, so he followed Little Cat’s advice and started to examine the tombstone with all his senses.

He was already familiar with the surface of the tombstone, but he still didn’t get anything from it.

Most people would’ve never cracked the mystery of the tombstone since no one would stay here for so long.

Comprehend, but not through observation. I can already imagine its size and shape in my mind, but how does that help me?

Long Chen pondered.

The faint moonlight caused his shadow to be projected on the tombstone. It was a natural phenomenon. The shadow moved as Long Chen moved. Nothing was out of the ordinary here.

Long Chen observed the tombstone for more than two hours but still got nothing.

Maybe I finally hit a bottleneck? Long Chen sighed.

He didn’t want to force himself and hoped that he would crack the mystery by chance.

He got bored and started cultivating the fourth stage of the Earthly Martial Fist.
