Chapter 108: Beginning the Road to Advancement

Xu Nian was shocked and rubbed his hands excitedly, saying: "Is this the old stone tablet you mentioned?"

"No!"

Fu Xingzhiying looked at Xu Nian who was stunned, and chuckled: "To be precise, this stone tablet is just an entrance. I don't quite understand the specific principle. I only know that the results of the institute's research show that this thing can send people's consciousness to a mysterious space."

"Before, the institute sent people into that space and saw the ninth old stone tablet. The figure on it was you."

"Ah?"

Xu Nian didn't react for a while.

"There were only three sequencers in the academy, including me, so we only have the right to preserve and study three old slates. But even so, the academy's research on the old slates far exceeds your imagination."

"Sequencers are very important to the academy. This is related to some competition with the main academy."

"Let me put it this way. Your appearance has caused the last old slate to react. The academy has also obtained the fourth slate, becoming the first branch in the entire city wall to have four sequencers."

Fu Xingzhiying's face was hidden under the black headscarf. Xu Nian couldn't see his expression, but judging from his tone, he was in a good mood when he said this.

After thinking for a while, he frowned and said, "So, what should I do?"

"It's very simple. Enter that mysterious space through the stone tablet and start the path to the advancement of your old slate."

Fu Xingzhiying's voice was inexplicably trembling.

Xu Nian was startled. This was the second time he heard the word "advanced". After thinking for a while, he asked, "Is advanced the path to becoming a god that Yu Man mentioned?"

"Did she tell you that?"

"Isn't it?"

Xu Nian frowned.

"You can understand it that way." Fu Xingzhiying shook his head. "Anyway, you will understand everything when you touch the old stone tablet."

"Go!"

Fu Xingzhiying pointed to the stone tablet on the lotus platform.

Xu Nian hesitated, thought about it, and felt that Fu Xingzhiying had no need to lie to him, so he gritted his teeth and walked over.

The stone tablet did not respond.

Xu Nian looked back at Fu Xingzhiying.

Fu Xingzhiying made a touching gesture.

Xu Nian was startled, took a deep breath, and slowly placed his hand on the stone tablet.

In an instant, the densely packed words on the stone tablet burst into a dazzling black light, and then, a black light flashed, and Xu Nian's whole body fell limply.

Fu Xingzhiying seemed to have known that this would happen. He caught Xu Nian's fallen body in advance and then slowly put it down.

Then, he took out the satellite phone and dialed a number.

"Miss, he has already gone in."

"Well, although you are not satisfied with his awareness, I really can't wait any longer. There are four sequencers in the hospital. You know the character of the soul-catcher. If she is willing to help, this operation will not be delayed until now. And the executioner needs to be in charge of the action team. I must let the fourth sequencer grow up quickly."

"Don't worry, I have a plan."

After hanging up the phone, Fu Xingzhiying looked at the stone tablet flashing with black light and said, "Xu Nian, Xu Nian, please don't let me down!"

The world spun around.

Xu Nian appeared on a somewhat dim land, and the sky above his head was a huge and unimaginable human silhouette.

The human silhouette was covered with a shimmering veil, and his feet did not stand on some kind of foundation, but seemed to be gliding or floating in a vague gray cloud.

Its outline is not fixed, but sometimes changes into different appearances, either similar to a human or similar to some strange creatures.

It is like a multi-image that changes in thousands of ways, and its entire body is also covered by some kind of light gray fabric.

Xu Nian stared blankly at the strange huge human silhouette that covered the sky and the sun, and was shocked and speechless for a while.

"Ancient. Ancient eternal life"

Suddenly, in the dark, intermittent sounds came from the earth.

Xu Nian was refreshed, and he looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a gray altar standing on the ground not far away.

A rectangular stone slab floated on the altar, and the stone slab emitted a faint light, and a faint shadow could be seen on it.

"Old stone slab?"

Xu Nian's heart moved, and he looked up at the magnificent huge human silhouette again, and then walked towards the altar with a solemn face.

He walked very slowly, but because the distance was not far, he walked to the stone slab in less than a while.

He also saw the figure on the stone slab clearly.

Although it was just an outline, he could tell at a glance that the figure on the stone slab was himself.

"This"

When Xu Nian was shocked, the stone slab suddenly trembled.

Then, in the distant sky, the huge human silhouette suddenly released a huge golden light column, which passed through the stone slab and enveloped Xu Nian.

Xu Nian was horrified, but as a huge amount of information and pictures appeared in his mind, his eyes were gradually filled with shock.

His mouth couldn't help but grow big.

The golden light column illuminated the land, and Xu Nian seemed to be bathed in divine light, and the whole person's aura was strangely sacred.

Suddenly, Xu Nian's body trembled, and a huge octopus shadow appeared behind him. The octopus's face had a faint outline of a human face, and its eight tentacles were flying wildly. Although its body was not as huge as the human silhouette in the sky, it was also hundreds of meters high.

After it appeared, it roared to the sky, and then looked at the huge human silhouette that reached the sky with a ferocious face.

Slowly, a strong fear and resentment appeared in its eyes. It looked down at the tiny Xu Nian in the golden light column, roared angrily, and rushed towards Xu Nian at a high speed.

There was only a loud noise that reached the sky.

The black light and the golden light column collided violently like a comet hitting the earth.

The whole earth trembled violently.

The golden light column vibrated violently, and gradually, the octopus figure slowly disappeared, and the black light slowly merged into the golden light column. The gold was no longer gold, but turned into a strange and mysterious black and gold.

At this time, a tiny version of the angel mark gradually appeared between Xu Nian's eyebrows. The mark was half gold and half black, which looked very strange.

The black and gold light column slowly disappeared, and the surrounding land darkened again, but in the dark, a voice that seemed to come from the ancient times slowly sounded on this land:

"The gods who fell into darkness, the rebirth of truth and order, the broken throne will burn in blood and fire."

"Lucky one chosen by the throne fragments, obey the will of the old king, and I will open your path to advancement."

"Wake up, fallen angel whose wings were broken in the dark abyss."
