Inside the stone room, a coffin stood in the middle. It was devoid of heavenly light and devoid of spiritual energy.
Other than that, there was nothing else.
This made Long Wu Shuang disappointed, "I thought there would be treasures. I cannot believe there is only a normal coffin."
"To have acquired the source of the Demon Star's energy, this trip was worth it."
Ling Xian softly grinned. Staring at the dusty coffin, his eyes brightened, "Plus, it doesn't mean I didn't gain anything."
"Hmm?"
Long Wu Shuang was a little startled and followed Ling Xian's gaze to the coffin, "The material of this coffin is very normal. It is wood that can be found anywhere. Could this be the gain you were talking about?"
"This wood is not normal." Ling Xian smiled. If this wood was normal, then there wouldn't be any other wood in the two realms.
"I am willing to hear the details." Long Wu Shuang frowned. Feng Jiu Ge was curious as well.
"If I am not wrong, this is the legendary Hidden Mechanism Wood."
Ling Xian had a smile on his lips. The Hidden Mechanism Wood was not a heavenly material, but it was extremely rare and priceless.
The reason was that this wood had a special ability.
It could store words and images and then hide them. Only a special method could reveal the words and images.
"The legendary wood?" Long Wu Shuang was a little startled. She didn't know about the Hidden Mechanism Wood, but she has heard of it.
"That's right." Ling Xian smiled, his eyes flickered with anticipation.
Though he didn't know what the leader of the palace carved on the Hidden Mechanism Wood, it was easy to imagine that it was something extraordinary. Or else there wouldn't be a need to hide it.
"So, we have another fortune."
Long Wu Shuang revealed a smile. But in the next second, she frowned, "The Hidden Mechanism Wood requires a special method to reveal the information recorded on it. Using force will only destroy it."
"I know the method." Ling Xian smiled. The reason why he recognized this was the legendary Hidden Mechanism Wood was because Duan Shan He's inheritance described this wood in detail.
Therefore, he knew how to make the information recorded on the Hidden Mechanism Wood appear.
"You know?" Long Wu Shuang was shocked. The reason why the Hidden Mechanism Wood was so popular was because not many people knew how to make the information recorded on it appear.
Even the dragon kind, which had existed for countless years and knew too many secrets, didn't know.
Yet Ling Xian said he knew. This naturally shocked her.
"Can't I know?" Ling Xian grinned. Duan Shan He was the Pioneer of Crafts. He knew every single godly material in the world like the back of his hand.
"It's not that I can't. I just find it unbelievable."
"I dare say that even the seven royal kinds don't know." Long Wu Shuang exclaimed, finding it harder and harder to read Ling Xian.
His ability was too great. It was as if nothing could stump him.
"I was lucky enough to find out." Ling Xian softly grinned, "To make the information recorded on the Hidden Machine Wood manifest, three conditions must be met."
"The first is the origin blood of the dragon and phoenix, the second is the divine fire, and the third is the power of space and time."
"We just happen to be able to fulfill these three conditions."
Ling Xian felt lucky. None of the three conditions could be missed. It was not an easy task to fulfill them.
However, the world was so coincidental that the three of them just happened to meet these conditions.
"We can satisfy the first condition, but the other two …" Long Wushuang frowned. The Divine Fire was rare, and the Power of Time and Space only existed in legends.
"I have it." Ling Xian grinned and the True Fire of Purity rose from his palm.
At the same time, a heavenly stone appeared. It was gold and silver and emitted the Qi of time and space.
It was the legendary Stone of Time.
Long Wushuang's pupils constricted at this. Her heart was thrown into turmoil.
The Stone of Time was an unparalleled treasure. Its rarity was even higher than immortal medicine!
"Unbelievable … you have the Stone of Time …" Long Wushuang was in a daze. Not even in her dreams did she think Ling Xian would have such a treasure.
"I was lucky." Ling Xian smiled. Rather than calling it lucky, it was more accurate to say he was kind.
If he didn't step out and save Elder Wu, how could he have acquired the Stone of Time?
"Your luck is far too good." Long Wushuang bitterly smiled. There was jealousy and heat.
The Stone of Time was a treasure even the dragon kind didn't have. Even real immortals would be tempted by it.
"You aren't thinking of stealing it, are you?" Ling Xian teased. He wasn't afraid of Long Wushuang. Even if she transformed into a saintly dragon, he wouldn't be afraid.
"Wait until I transform into a saintly dragon, then I will steal it." Long Wushuang hissed. If this was anyone else, she would've attacked. But Ling Xian, she would only tease him. She wouldn't steal his treasure.
"Then I have to leave the Yao Planet quickly. I don't want you to take my treasure and beat me up."
Ling Xian grinned, "Alright, let's stop fooling around. Let's get down to business."
Then, he flicked his finger and the Flame of Purity flew out and engulfed the coffin.
At this, Long Wushuang forced out a drop of blood that landed on top of the coffin.
Feng Jiu Ge did the same.
Instantly, the coffin absorbed the Flame of Purity and the blood of the dragon and phoenix and began to shine.
"Next, it's time to use the power of time and space." Ling Xian squinted and activated the Stone of Time.
In the next second, his face turned white and blood dripped from the corner of his lips.
What could he do? With his current cultivation level, it was impossible for him to activate the Stone of Time. Even activating the power of time and space was difficult.
This made Feng Jiu Ge's expression change. She found it hard to hide her worry.
Long Wushuang frowned as well.
"Don't worry. Activating the power of time and space is possible." Ling Xian smiled warmly and summoned the Primitive Technique.
After some time, the Stone of Time finally emitted light and released a sliver of the power of time and space.
In the next second, the coffin absorbed the power of time and space. The light dissipated and was replaced by three mysterious drawings.
The first one was an enlivener sitting above the nine heavens. Like a Buddha or a God, it was holy and immortal.
The second one was a hand holding up the sky. Though it was merely a drawing, one could feel the undefeatable power.
The third one was surrounded by murky air and was emitting bright light. It was mysterious and hard to see.
The moment these three drawings appeared, Ling Xian, Long Wushuang, and Feng Jiu Ge were stunned.
Then, Long Wushuang and Feng Jiu Ge both puked out a mouthful of blood. The space between their brows split open.
Ling Xian was slightly better. He only puked out blood but the space between his brows didn't split open.
These three drawings were far too mysterious and far too profound. Even with his enlightenment abilities, he couldn't understand them.
If he tried, there would only be one result. His soul would dissipate and he would be sent to hell.
"What is this? This is far too terrifying. "Long Wushuang was still fearful. He turned his head to the side and no longer dared to look at the drawings.
Feng Jiu Ge did the same.
It was far too terrifying. After one look, her soul almost shattered. If she continued to look, not even real immortals could save her.
Ling Xian didn't turn his head. His soul had an undying quality, so he could look.
However, he couldn't understand it.
Not only were these drawings profound, but they also possessed mysterious powers. With his current level of cultivation, he couldn't defend against that power.
"How impressive …"
Staring at the three mysterious drawings, Ling Xian exhaled a mouthful of murky air. He was in awe.
He had predicted that the Hidden Mechanism Wood would record something extraordinary. But he underestimated it.
These three drawings were far too shocking. Especially the blurry third one, it was absolutely shocking!
