In the space where silence and darkness coexisted, nine gigantic dragon corpses lay in disarray. The bronze coffin was simple and unadorned, yet grand, as if it had existed with the universe since the beginning of time.
Several days had passed, but the mysterious signal from the bronze pattern was still undeciphered. There was no reliable way to 'salvage' it and bring it to the surface.
"It moved!"
"Deviated from the orbit, sinking!"
At this moment, the pupils of a few elite astronauts in the International Space Station rapidly contracted. The Coffin Pulled by the Nine Dragons had deviated from its orbit and was slowly descending.
Mount Tai was lofty, heavy, and majestic. It was revered as the head of the five great mountains and was known as the number one mountain in the world.
Since ancient times, Mount Tai had been a sacred symbol. It was located in the easternmost part of the Central Plains, surrounded by the Yellow River and the Wen River. In ancient times, it was regarded as the place where the sun was born and all living things grew.
No mountain is greater than it, and history is greater than it!
Mount Tai was majestic and had a rich history that could be traced back to the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. It was a place close to the gods.
"The Heavens are too high to reach. Setting up a ceremony on Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to the Gods."
The First Emperor of Qin, who swept across the world, and the Emperor Wu of Han, who was a man of great talent and bold vision, had both held an unprecedented ceremony on Mount Tai.
And before that, in ancient times, there were 72 emperors worshipping on Mount Tai.
The ancient book of the Pre-Qin Dynasty, 'Guan Zi', recorded: 'In the past, the Huai clan consecrated Mount Tai, Zen Yunyun; Fuxi consecrated Mount Tai, Zen Yunyun; Shennong consecrated Mount Tai, Zen Yunyun; Yellow Emperor consecrated Mount Tai, Zen Yunyun; Yao consecrated Mount Tai, Zen Yunyun; Yu consecrated Mount Tai …'
During the primordial times, numerous Saint Emperors and Ancient Emperors had chosen to perform their rituals here without exception, causing Mount Tai to be enveloped in layers of mist and emanate a boundlessly mysterious aura.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, Sage Kong had once traveled to Mount Tai in search of the remains of the ancient Great Ceremony of Ascension, but regrettably, he did not find anything. When his disciples asked him about it, he could not answer.
Later generations had made some discoveries.
In the 20th year of the Republic of China, General Ma Hongkui led his troops and was stationed at the foot of Mount Tai. By chance, he discovered a five-colored earthen altar with two sets of jade scrolls inside. The scrolls were sealed with 'stone clay and golden rope' and hidden underground.
In the pre-Qin and ancient times, it was still a mystery to this day as to why all the ancient emperors consecrated here. Perhaps it would never be solved.
Ye Fan and the others rested in the hotel for a night. The next day, they began to climb Mount Tai.
It was the first time for many people in the group to climb Mount Tai. Only when they were here could they feel the magnificence and majesty of the mountain.
The mountain was divided into three layers of terraced geological structures. It was like a stairway to heaven, facing south. The entire mountain was open, and a ten-kilometer-long path to heaven led to the vast mountain, extending to the peak.
Be it from afar or up close, one could feel the majestic aura that stirred one's heart.
In front of the majestic Mount Tai, one would have a strange illusion that one was as small as an ant. Even the sun, moon, and stars in the sky seemed insignificant.
This was a shocking feeling that made one's soul tremble.
When the tour guide talked about various things in ancient times, it made people's imagination run wild. Humans were always full of yearning for the unknown and mysterious.
Li Xiaoman and Cade walked side by side, constantly translating and explaining to him. This made the American youth more and more curious about Mount Tai, and he kept asking questions.
Liu Yunzhi looked at Ye Fan playfully, then looked at the two people in front of him. However, his obvious intention seemed to be ignored by Ye Fan, who did not say anything at all. This made him very disappointed.
In fact, Ye Fan did not notice him at all. He was naturally very calm.
Ye Fan had already finished reading the "Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor". When he thought about how the ancient sages all worshipped here, he suddenly had an absurd thought. Could it be that there really was a lost ancient civilization? If so, Mount Tai was undoubtedly a holy land during that period.
However, he immediately shook his head. He felt that he had been too bored recently to have such an absurd thought.
Mount Tai was lush with ancient pines and had many flowing springs and waterfalls. There was no lack of spirituality in its majesty. Coupled with the misty clouds, it naturally added a bit of mystery and profoundness.
As they climbed up, there were countless places of interest and historical interest along the way. The cliff steles were breathtaking.
From the sacrificial ground, past the Dai Temple, to the heaven-sealing Jade Emperor Peak, it formed an axis that spanned ten kilometers from the underworld to the human world to the heavens.
In the evening, the crowd finally reached the peak of Mount Tai, the Jade Emperor Peak. Looking down at the tens of thousands of mountains below and the Yellow River in the distance, they immediately understood the true meaning of Confucius's "Climb Mount Tai and look down on the world".
"When you reach the peak, you will look down on all the mountains!" The Sage of Poetry had also left such a masterpiece.
At this moment, the sun was setting in the west. The peaks of the clouds were inlaid with a layer of dazzling gold, sparkling with the brilliance of rare treasures.
Such a beautiful scene could not help but be intoxicated.
Suddenly, a few black spots appeared in the sky. They gradually grew larger, and the sound of wind and thunder could be heard.
Nine huge objects descended from the sky like nine long black rivers. At this moment, everyone on Mount Tai was so shocked that their expressions froze. They looked at each other in astonishment.
They were actually nine huge dragon corpses pulling an ancient bronze coffin towards the peak of Mount Tai.
Dragons, a legendary existence, stood side by side with the gods and were above the laws of nature. However, with the development of science, who would still believe that dragons really existed?
The tourists on the mountain were so shocked that they held their breath and even forgot to shout.
After a short silence, Mount Tai boiled. Everyone fled in panic, rushing in all directions to avoid the huge dragon corpses that were approaching.
This was a shocking scene. Under the blood-red sunset, nine dragons pulling a coffin descended to Mount Tai!
Terrified screams and helpless cries rang out as everyone fled.
The nine dragons pulling the coffin did not fall very quickly, but when it landed, it still heavily shook the peak of Mount Tai.
"Boom!"
The nine huge objects fell like nine mountain ridges, shaking the Jade Emperor Peak until a large crack appeared. Soil and stones flew everywhere, and dust and sand filled the air.
The ancient bronze coffin also smashed onto the peak of Mount Tai with a "Clang" sound. The mountain shook as if there was an earthquake. Many mountain rocks rolled down from the mountain, making a rumbling sound as if thousands of horses and soldiers were galloping.
Many people were affected. They were badly mutilated by the mountain rocks and fell down the mountain. Cries of fear rang out everywhere.
The shaking stopped, and the mountain quickly calmed down. However, Mount Tai was already in chaos. Many people fell down while fleeing. This was an extremely chaotic scene. Many people were bleeding from their heads as they ran down the mountain in fear.
Nine huge dragon corpses that were over a hundred meters long. Most of their bodies were quietly lying on the mountain peak, while the other half of their bodies were hanging down the cliff. They were like a black steel wall, full of a shocking sense of power and extremely impactful to the eyes.
The Jade Emperor Peak of Mount Tai was shattered, and there were many terrifying cracks on the ground.
The twenty meter long bronze coffin was simple and unadorned. There were some vague ancient patterns on it, full of the vicissitudes of time. There was a mysterious aura circulating around it.
