Chapter 208 Future Threats
Shen Lang frowned slightly, his eyes full of anxiety and confusion.
"It's the demons."
The voice of the spirit of the formation stele was filled with deep sadness and the vicissitudes of time.
"In the ancient war that shocked the world and made the gods cry, the human cultivators fought bravely with the demons. The battle was extremely tragic. Almost all of them died and were injured before they barely repelled the demons."
"In the end, the human cultivators sacrificed their blood and used their bodies to feed the formation. They set up a powerful demon suppression formation at the location of the world gate to prevent the demons from invading again. The demons also fought desperately and tried their best to cut off the ladder to heaven."
In that fierce battle, no one got the upper hand. It can almost be said that both sides suffered losses.
That battle was a huge disaster for the human cultivators, and it almost cut off the inheritance.
Countless secret manuals of skills were lost, and many cultivation methods disappeared. The human cultivators suffered unprecedented heavy losses in that catastrophe.
"Then now..." Shen Lang squeezed out a voice from his throat with difficulty, his voice was trembling and uneasy.
"Thousands of years have passed, and no matter how strong the seal is, it will inevitably loosen after years of erosion." The voice of the spirit of the formation stele seemed heavy and helpless.
"Can't we send someone to reinforce the seal?" Shen Lang was full of doubts, and his brows were tightly furrowed.
"Back then, it was the emperor realm strongman who sacrificed his own life to form such a powerful seal. What can ordinary cultivators do?"
The words of the spirit of the formation stele were full of worries about the current situation and memories of the past.
Nowadays, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is becoming thinner and thinner, and there are very few strong people who can reach the level of transcendence and sainthood and cultivate to the emperor realm.
Shen Lang now thoroughly understood that as long as the cultivation fails to reach the corresponding high level, no matter how many lofty words are said, it is all worthless empty talk, just like building a tower on sand, the foundation is unstable, and it is ultimately empty.
No wonder the ancestors of the Tiandao League took the trouble to leave behind a formation stone tablet before ascending to a higher level world.
Perhaps it is because the demon-suppressing formation set up at the key point of the world gate may gradually become damaged or loosened under the continuous erosion of the ruthless years as time goes by.
To solve this potential crisis, outstanding descendants who are proficient in the way of formation need to step forward to carefully repair and stabilize it, so as to ensure that it can continue to play a key role in resisting the invasion of the demons.
Looking at Shen Lang's thoughtful and solemn look, the spirit of the formation tablet said directly:
"Okay, don't rack your brains there, this is not something you should worry about at your current level of cultivation. If the sky falls, there will naturally be tall people to hold it up. The most important thing for you little kids is to practice well and improve your strength."
The tone of the spirit of the formation tablet was serious and unquestionable.
You know, this stone tablet has existed for thousands of years, and the accumulation of years and profound heritage it contains are self-evident.
Therefore, Shen Lang calmly and readily accepted the title of little kid. He knew that he was indeed too immature in front of this ancient and mysterious existence.
"The way of formation is extremely profound and mysterious, and the changes are endless. What I have taught you today is just the tip of the iceberg of this vast knowledge of formation, and it is far from covering all its essence and mysteries. You must study more carefully on the road of cultivation in the future."
The spirit of the formation tablet looked very solemn, and said in a serious and solemn tone.
"Kid knows."
Shen Lang lowered his head, his expression was very respectful, and his eyes were full of determination and humility.
He knew the preciousness of this inheritance and understood the great responsibility he shouldered.
"The gate is open, hurry out."
After saying this, the spirit of the formation monument waved his hand decisively, signaling Shen Lang to leave quickly.
Then, his figure flashed like a wisp of light smoke, and disappeared without a trace in an instant, as if he had never appeared.
This unique space will gradually become quiet and enter a long wait until the next sixty years.
Shen Lang has stayed in this stone monument space for a long time. The habit formed over a long period of time makes him subconsciously want to release his mental power and carefully check the specific situation around him.
It was this inadvertent look that made Shen Lang keenly discover the unusual place.
Why are there so many masters of the Transcendent Realm outside? Moreover, after careful investigation, he also detected three very well hidden auras.
What exactly do they want to do by hiding their heads and showing their tails and sneaking around?
Shen Lang frowned, his heart full of doubts and vigilance.
As a result, Shen Lang, who was about to leave this space, hesitated a little, thinking to himself: should I wait a little longer?
However, when others saw Shen Lang stagnating, they all chose to stay where they were.
They thought that Shen Lang might have some unknown secret plan, so they wanted to follow Shen Lang and get some benefits, maybe they could win a rare opportunity at this last critical moment.
Just like Shen Lang cleverly intercepted and picked up the leak when Bai Qianren and Tian Qingbo were fighting fiercely.
They had neither opened their eyes nor owned the Xuankong Mirror, so they naturally had no way of knowing that Shen Lang had successfully received the inheritance of three stone tablets in succession.
I still fully thought that Shen Lang accidentally obtained some information about the other two stone tablets in the process of receiving the inheritance of the sword stele.
They entered this stone monument space this time, but they didn't gain anything at all.
It would be really unwilling to let them go out empty-handed.
It's better to just stay in this stone monument space for a while, maybe your fortune will suddenly change and usher in an unexpected turning point.
Therefore, everyone deliberately pretended to be very busy, walking here and there, but never leaving this space.
Zhou Xin and several other Supreme Elders had been waiting anxiously outside for a long time. The impatience in their hearts became more and more intense, and they couldn't help but feel anxious like ants on a hot pot.
Zhou Xin frowned, his face full of impatience, and he couldn't help shouting and urging the disciples inside:
"The stele space is about to close, and there is not much time left. Please act quickly and come out immediately! Don't delay!"
After the boundary gate is opened, the sounds from outside can spread in unimpeded and unimpeded.
After Shen Lang heard the urgent urging, without any hesitation, he immediately tried to secretly transmit the message to Emperor Xing as quickly as possible.
