With the sect master leading the way, Xiao Fan and the rest walked towards the depths of the Yan Yun Sect. They arrived at the foot of the Faceless Stone Statue.
The Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect had a complicated expression on his face as he looked up at the huge stone statue before him.
Although he had followed the will of the ancestors of the Yan Yun Sect and continued to nourish and worship this faceless stone statue, it was impossible for him not to have any hesitation, hesitation, and resentment in his heart!
For the past seven to eight thousand years, the Yan Yun Sect had always done what they were supposed to do, but the faceless stone statue didn't respond at all. It didn't protect the Yan Yun Sect, so the sect master felt a certain amount of resentment in his heart.
"Sigh!"
However, the sect master of the Yan Yun Sect did not say anything despite the resentment in his heart. He only sighed heavily and shook his head without saying anything. His already old body became even older.
"There is only one reason why the Faceless Stone Statue did not respond to you. Did you make a mistake with the sacrificial speech? Not a single word can be wrong, and not a single word can be missing! " Xiao Fan looked at the Faceless Stone Statue in front of him and fell silent for a moment. He then turned to the sect master and nodded.
"Sacrificial speech? What sacrificial speech? "The Sect Master of the Swallow Cloud Sect was stunned by Xiao Fan's words.
"You guys don't know about the sacrificial speech?" It was Xiao Fan's turn to be stunned.
If one wanted to communicate with the Faceless Stone Statue and use it, they needed a special sacrificial speech. Only through the sacrificial speech could they communicate with the Faceless Stone Statue.
Xiao Fan had obtained the sacrificial speech when he first obtained the Faceless Stone Statue. When he exchanged treasures with the Yan Yun Sect's prodigy, Xiao Fan naturally did not hide the sacrificial speech and handed it over to the Yan Yun Sect's prodigy.
Logically speaking, the Yan Yun Sect should know about the sacrificial speech as well.
However, the result was surprising. The Yan Yun Sect was completely unaware of the sacrificial speech. It seemed that something unexpected must have happened.
Otherwise, the Yan Yun Sect would only grow stronger with the help of this faceless stone statue, which could communicate with them at any time and display shocking battle prowess.
"I really didn't know about the sacrificial offerings!" The Sect Master of the Swallow Cloud Sect said helplessly, "Because in the history of our Swallow Cloud Sect, there was another great calamity before the Prodigy Disciple betrayed the sect two thousand years ago!"
"As for that disaster, I heard that it was the root cause of our Yan Yun Sect's decline. Moreover, because of that disaster, our Yan Yun Sect's Martial Repository was destroyed. Many ancient books and secret manuals were burned and destroyed!"
"Now, Young Master Xiao, I'm afraid that the sacrificial speech you mentioned was also cut off during that disaster!"
"Perhaps!" Xiao Fan sighed softly and shook his head. "However, since you don't have the sacrificial speech, it's no wonder that the faceless stone statue didn't respond to your prayers over the years!"
"Young Master Xiao, are you saying that the sacrificial speech is the bridge between our Yan Yun Sect and the faceless stone statue?" The Sect Master of the Swallow Cloud Sect was quick-witted. He immediately understood what Xiao Fan meant and his breathing quickened. His spirit was roused as he quickly spoke.
For so many years, the faceless stone statue had never responded to the Yan Yun Sect's calls. Naturally, the Yan Yun Sect had been searching for the reason.
However, no matter how hard the Yan Yun Sect searched, they couldn't find the root cause.
Now that Xiao Fan spoke, the Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect immediately realized the root cause. It was the sacrificial speech. Because the Yan Yun Sect didn't have the sacrificial speech, the faceless stone statue didn't move!
Seeing that the problem that had plagued the Yan Yun Sect for so many years had finally shown a glimmer of hope, the Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect's heart began to race uncontrollably.
As long as they could communicate with the faceless stone statue, the Yan Yun Sect would rise again.
As for himself, he would not disappoint his Master and his Grandmasters in the end!
After a hundred years, he would be able to face the ancestors of the Yan Yun Sect in the netherworld and tell them with tears in his eyes that the Yan Yun Sect didn't end in his hands. Instead, it grew stronger.
I am not a sinner of the Yan Yun Sect!
The ancestors can finally rest in peace!
"Yes!" Xiao Fan nodded in response to the Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect.
"Then, since Young Master Xiao mentioned the sacrificial speech, do you know what it is?" Although he was surprised that Xiao Fan knew so much about the Yan Yun Sect's Faceless Stone Statue, now wasn't the time to discuss this. The Yan Yun Sect's sect master's breathing became more rapid as excitement and excitement appeared on his face. He looked at Xiao Fan and spoke forcefully.
But!
In the next second, Xiao Fan's reply was like a bucket of cold water being poured over his head. The Sect Leader of the Yan Yun Sect felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar. His body froze on the spot and he lost his mind.
"I only know part of the sacrificial speech, not the whole thing. It's the same as not having it!" Xiao Fan shook his head.
Xiao Fan really didn't know the entire sacrificial speech. Although Xiao Fan had obtained the faceless stone statue, Xiao Fan had lost interest in it after knowing that it wasn't useful to him. He had casually thrown it into his bag and ignored it.
The sacrificial speech was very long and difficult to pronounce. Since the faceless stone statue wasn't useful to him, Xiao Fan naturally wouldn't remember it.
Of course, when Xiao Fan first obtained the Faceless Stone Statue, he had only glanced at the sacrificial speech. However, he did not finish reading it. This was also the reason why Xiao Fan said that he only knew part of it and did not know all of it.
"Sigh!"
Looking at the faceless stone statue, the Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect didn't know what to say. He could only sigh heavily. His body was hunched over and his face was filled with helplessness and bitterness.
"Although I don't know the entirety of the Sacrificial Oration, and having it is equivalent to not having it, I have a way to obtain the complete Sacrificial Oration!" Xiao Fan opened his mouth and nodded.
"Young Master Xiao, is that true?" Hearing Xiao Fan's words, the Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect became spirited again. Then, he looked at Xiao Fan with excitement and hurriedly spoke.
"Brother, don't worry. Our master's words are always true. There's no falsehood!" The Little Bastard interrupted and smiled at the Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect.
"Brother?" The Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect didn't know whether to laugh or cry at the way the Little Bastard addressed him. However, he didn't mind. Instead, he looked at Xiao Fan with bright eyes and bowed heavily. Then, he said solemnly to Xiao Fan, "As long as Young Master Xiao can allow our Yan Yun Sect to communicate with the stone statue, our Yan Yun Sect will never forget your great kindness!"
"I've said it before. I'm here to give your Yan Yun Sect a great opportunity. You don't have to be so polite!" Xiao Fan interrupted the Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect. Then, he lifted the Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect up and nodded.
The Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect didn't say anything else. He was extremely excited. Then, he retreated to the side and held his breath as he watched Xiao Fan obtain the complete sacrificial speech.
The Little Bastard, Lin Shan, and Lime also retreated and watched from afar.
"Wake up!"
Since everyone had retreated, Xiao Fan didn't hesitate any longer. He took a step forward and slammed his palm on the Faceless Stone Statue. At the same time, he shouted.
Xiao Fan immediately retracted his palm and retreated. Then, he stood there quietly and looked at the Faceless Stone Statue, waiting for it to wake up!
The Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect, Little Bastard, Lin Shan, and Lime were all silent as they watched.
After a while!
"Thump!" "Thump!" "Thump!"
An inexplicable heartbeat sounded in the field. Then, the heartbeat became more and more intense. It was so loud that everyone's heart couldn't help but beat violently. They felt as if they were going to suffocate to death.
At this moment, if one were to observe carefully, one would easily discover that the inexplicable heartbeat was actually coming from the faceless stone statue.
The Faceless Stone Statue had been awakened by Xiao Fan's palm!
This was how Xiao Fan obtained the complete Sacrificial Oration!
The Faceless Stone Statue definitely knew the complete Sacrificial Oration. Hence, as long as the Faceless Stone Statue was awakened, he would know the complete Sacrificial Oration through the Faceless Stone Statue!
It was a simple and direct method!
Of course, even though this method was simple, only Xiao Fan could use it!
This was because only Xiao Fan could communicate with the Faceless Stone Statue directly without the Sacrificial Oration. If anyone else wanted to communicate with the Faceless Stone Statue and borrow its power, they could only do so through the Sacrificial Oration.
"The Faceless Stone Statue has a heartbeat?"
Seeing the drastic change in front of him, the Sect Master of the Yan Yun Sect was shocked. Then, he subconsciously muttered to himself.
However, before he could finish his sentence, what happened next caused him to freeze on the spot. His mind went blank.
"It's you?"
An inexplicable low voice sounded like low thunder from the Faceless Stone Statue. It contained a power that made one's heart palpitate and tremble.
It was just a simple word, but it made one want to kneel down. Then, it slowly spread into everyone's ears!
The Faceless Stone Statue had spoken!
Moreover, from these two simple words, one could infer another fact. The Faceless Stone Statue clearly knew Xiao Fan.
Therefore, the Sect Master of Yan Yun Sect was shocked to the extreme. His mind froze and he lost the ability to think normally at this moment.
