Chapter 183: The Origin of the Soul Suppressing Stele
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was human nature to be curious and want to clarify everything.
“What I know is also extremely limited. For example, I don’t know the origin of this rainstorm. However, an ancestor brought that Soul Suppressing Stele from the outside world 300 years ago.”
Ling Feng was a little confused. “Perhaps the ghouls first appeared in your world, and then the Soul Suppressing Stele appeared?”
Ling Feng now knew the origin of the ghouls. It was due to the influence of the god’s corpse. The rainstorm was also related to the god’s corpse.
Gods were able to create followers. Even if the god died, this ability still existed on the corpse. Therefore, the soul would be affected by the corpse and created by it. These were ghouls.
However, why did these ghouls only appear at night and disappear during the day? The reason was very simple. The divine persona of the corpse of a god was a shadow, so it would not appear during the day and would only appear at night.
But now, Ling Feng knew another secret. The Soul Suppressing Stele was not something from this world but from the outside world. What was its purpose?
“This place used to be more tyrannical and sparsely populated. Everyone lived in groups and believed in the Guardian Spirit. Even if the Guardian Spirit did not have consciousness, it could protect the village from being invaded by the ghouls.
“However, the ability of the Guardian Spirit is relatively weak, often devoured by ghouls.
“Thus, our ancestors returned the Soul Suppressing Stele from the outside world. We survived because of the Soul Suppressing Stele, and only then did we develop and grow.
“There are a total of 11 Soul Suppressing Steles, 10 of which are small. The largest one had a complete Divine Soul Token engraved, while the smaller ones only had one type and were distributed in other small towns.
“This is the origin of the Soul Suppressing Stele. If you’re asking me where it came from, I don’t know.”
“Then how do you understand the words on this stone tablet?
“Furthermore, if you want to understand these words, you must have a soul vision. Did you have soul power from the beginning?”
The empress nodded. “That’s right. We do have some basic spiritual techniques.
However, how we understand these words is related to a jade pendant. Unfortunately, this jade pendant is broken.”
Ling Feng remembered that there was indeed a jade pendant in the cave. After the jade pendant appeared, the words appeared on the stone tablet, but then the jade pendant broke. It must have been related to the number of times it was used.
“I think I know. Thank you for telling me.”
At this moment, a scream was heard from not far away. Ling Feng turned around and saw Ling Yun. He ran over in a panic and shouted, “Brother! There is a huge worm! Help!”
Bai Xiaosa’s face was filled with depression as he pulled Ling Yun and said,
“Isn’t it just a caterpillar? What are you afraid of?”
There was a huge caterpillar behind them, about ten meters long. It came out of nowhere and chased after them closely.
After seeing the caterpillar, the empress smiled and said, “That’s my pet. Don’t worry. It’s gentle and can heal injuries.”
Ling Feng smiled when he heard this.
“Fortunately, you told me in time. Otherwise, your pet would have died.”
“You should be able to tell at a glance that it won’t hurt anyone.”
Ling Feng smiled. That was indeed the case.
Ling Yun still walked behind Ling Feng with a face full of panic. He pointed at the caterpillar and said, “I, Ling Yun, am afraid of nothing except bugs!” “Alright, the empress said that it’s just a pet. Don’t make a fuss.”
The empress walked over and used her Soul Capture Technique to chase the caterpillar away. Ling Yun finally felt at ease.
After that, the few of them chatted for a while before they left.
Last night, the capital city was filled with ghouls. Many people died, and only one-tenth of the original residents were still alive. The empress gathered these people to carry out the reconstruction work after the disaster.
They didn’t know that Ling Feng had already taken away the god’s corpse and cut off the source of the ghouls. Now, they were still discussing how to survive and solve the basic problem of survival. Only the Soul Suppressing Stele could keep them alive, so they planned to go to another Soul Suppressing Stele.
The empress was very busy, so Ling Feng and the others bid farewell and left.
After spending so much time on this trip, he had obtained the corpse of a god and the Divine Soul Token. It was time to leave.
They quickly left the capital and met with Feng Jiu in the small house halfway up the mountain. The few of them returned the way they came.
After going down the mountain, an endless sea was in front of him. The land there before was now completely submerged, and only a few small hills were exposed. However, they looked like they had lost their former glory. They were like small islands scattered everywhere.
“Let’s go!” Ling Feng said.
“Let’s go,” Ling Yun replied. “I feel uncomfortable just thinking about that caterpillar.”
Bai Xiaosa also opened his Heavenly Eye to look in the direction ahead, looking for a way to go DaCK as soon as possiD1e.
He pointed in a certain direction and said, “This way.”
After Ling Feng nodded, he led the team forward for a few hours and saw a very large willow tree. It stunned him a little.
At this moment, Ling Yun suddenly remembered. “This is Willow Village!” This was the first place they had rested since coming to this world.
However, they did not see the huge Soul Suppressing Stele now. It might have been submerged. Only this hundred-year-old willow tree remained where it was. Even the flood could not do anything to it. It still stood tall.
Ling Feng looked at the willow tree and said, “I wonder how the villagers in this village are doing now?”
At this time, someone on the willow tree saw Ling Feng waving his hand and shouting loudly. Ling Feng heard the shouting sound as if someone was calling him.
“They’re all on the willow tree. Should we go and take a look?” Ling Yun asked excitedly.
“It’s fine to go and take a look.”
Not far away, there were villagers fishing in the river. When they saw Ling Feng and the others, they greeted them. The village chief and the others also rushed over to welcome Ling Feng.
“You are finally back.”
When they met again after encountering such a disaster, it was inevitable that they would sigh.
Ling Feng and the others rested here for a few hours before leaving.
“It’s time to set off.
Many mutated beasts had stopped at the entrance of the mythical realm because of the heavy rain. They had gathered here with humans. The Tier 7 beast that had previously guarded this place was now beaten to the brink of death by the human wave tactic, having almost no combat strength left.
Ling Feng was very impressed that these guys were indeed very powerful. They were able to drag this fierce beast to death.
With the experience of going to the nation of Chu Yun, Ling Feng could roughly guess how these beasts came to be. Chu Yun’s ancestors had probably placed it here to prevent outsiders from entering..
