The Scriptures Finally Revealed

Chapter 546: The Scripture Finally Appears

The Immortal Cave was ancient and rustic, filled with the aura of ages, but it wasn't dark. Instead, auspicious Qi burst forth, making it sacred and serene.

Most astonishingly, this was an ancient mine artificially carved, a rare treasure in itself, forged from chaotic stone.

One could say that standing inside was like facing a supreme Immortal Treasure Trove.

Lin Fan recovered and walked further in. As the saying goes, 'once bitten, twice shy,' he was no longer unfamiliar, but rather observing more closely.

"Indeed, it's an Immortal Cave, left by an Immortal figure, which explains such a grand feat in carving out this place."

Unlike last time, Lin Fan examined it meticulously, observing the axe marks, sword marks, and other imprints on the stone walls, comprehending the Dao contained within.

These were left by peerless masters, and even after countless ages, they still held various profound mysteries that could make one's mind clear.

Subsequently, he passed a small pond from which Chaos Qi continuously surged, rich in life essence and particularly mysterious.

"The Origin Place!" Lin Fan recognized it at a glance; he had once performed Body Refining there.

This pond was extraordinary, a place where Immortal materials were born. He and Lan Xian had speculated that this was also where Immortals refined treasures.

However, Lin Fan merely glanced at it, not lingering much, as his goal was not to forge Divine Weapons here.

"I remember that every once in a while, chanting would echo from this place, and the ancient path leading to the main hall would appear," Lin Fan thought.

Next, he sat down and began to wait patiently.

Until more than ten days later… "Om!"

Suddenly, the entire Ancient Cave vibrated, emitting boundless Divine Light, with large swathes of mysterious symbols rising, accompanied by a grand Dao Divine Sound.

It was very indistinct, difficult to hear clearly, like it had been sealed for endless ages, coming from across eons, extremely distant.

"Boom!"

At this very moment, the Ancient Cave underwent a transformation. Various patterns on the stone walls became dazzling, and a terrifying fluctuation emanated.

"The trial has come!" Lin Fan's expression turned solemn. His body sensed danger, glowing autonomously to resist the external pressure.

"Chih!"

Chaos surged, and terrifying patterns appeared on the stone walls, or rather, Dao imprints. There were ancient people and Vicious Beasts.

They were lifelike, as if they had come alive, not only emerging from the stone walls but also possessing vast pressure, utterly terrifying!

"Zheng!"

The next moment, one of the carved images rushed forward. It was an ancient person, holding an Immortal sword, striking down at him with rampant Sword Qi.

Lin Fan retaliated, clenching his fist. By now, to deal with these imprints, he no longer needed to rely on supreme treasures; he could handle them himself.

"Boom!"

A great battle unfolded. Sword Qi was like a rainbow, and fist light shattered the Void Realm. Countless rules intertwined, dazzling and blinding.

As soon as they clashed, Lin Fan was startled. These imprints were not simple; they were equivalent to the attacks of an Escape One Realm being.

After a long and fierce battle, he finally managed to slay an ancient person.

"This place and the War God Temple on the Immortal Island actually share a similar design," Lin Fan pondered the intricacies and judged.

In general, the power exerted by the imprints would not exceed his Realm by too much, making it possible to fight.

At this moment, he couldn't help but suspect a connection between the two, that the War God Temple was built with reference to this place.

"Hmm?"

Lin Fan paused. After defeating an imprint, a passage of scripture, mysterious and profound but incomplete, came to his ears.

Compared to the previously indistinct Dao sound, it was much clearer, allowing him to hear and understand it distinctly.

"So that's how it is. This is indeed a trial. The World-Ending Fist Art is in the great hall at the end of the path, but the scripture is along this path!"

Lin Fan understood and smiled.

Then, he plunged into battle again, fighting a strange Vicious Beast with nine heads. The Void Realm collapsed, and blood splattered.

Finally, Lin Fan severed all nine of its heads. After it completely dissipated, another passage of scripture echoed in his ears.

Upon comprehending it, he found it different from the previous passage, but he could tell that they both belonged to the same Heavenly Art.

Moreover, it subtly resonated with the World-Ending Fist Art he had previously obtained, serving as the core scripture for wielding that peerless Divine Ability.

This greatly delighted Lin Fan!

"Roar…"

A deafening roar echoed. More carvings on the stone wall revived, transforming into lifelike beings, attacking him.

"Kill!"

Lin Fan roared, not retreating but advancing. After learning of the Opportunity here, he certainly wouldn't let it go; he would clear the ancient path no matter what.

In an instant, a White Tiger bared its fangs and claws. Its Geng Metal Qi was peerless, transforming into the most terrifying killing swords, and its domain surged.

At the same time, a Vermilion Bird soared into the sky. With a spread of its wings, Southern Bright Li Fire surged, and waves of heat rushed forth.

If this place weren't an Immortal Cave, built from indestructible chaotic stone, it would have long since exploded and melted into lava.

"Boom!"

Lin Fan was fearless, erupting with super battle power, simultaneously confronting two terrifying beings. His Divine Power boiled, like an ocean sweeping through.

For him, he had already faced such challenges, so it wasn't particularly difficult to handle. He was confident he could pass…

At the same time, Grand Elder Meng Tianzheng of the Celestial God Academy issued an order, causing a sensation.

"What, this time we're going to the Immortal Battlefield for training?!"

"It is said that this time on the Immortal Battlefield, the Elders will allow competition among Disciples, aiming to cultivate the strongest Legacy holder!"

"Doesn't that mean that the strongest few in the Academy are very likely to engage in a great battle, resulting in bloodshed and casualties?"

Undoubtedly, this was a major event, shaking the entire Academy, from the Elders down to the students, attracting extraordinary attention.

Originally, whether to go to the Immortal Battlefield for training was voluntary, but the Grand Elder suddenly ordered that all members must participate.

This was very thought-provoking!

"Hmm, I heard that this time, whoever performs most brilliantly will be bestowed a special reward by the Grand Elder," someone whispered, very excited.

Because many people in the Academy came from long-lived races and knew what kind of person the Grand Elder was. Once he spoke, it was no small matter.

To say he would bestow a special Opportunity meant it must be extremely extraordinary.

Therefore, even before departure, many people were already preparing for battle, their hearts stirred, hoping to emerge victorious.

"The Immortal Battlefield, huh? It's a good place to kill Feng Xingtian and strike a heavy blow to the Feng Clan!" Shi Hao's eyes sparkled, flashing with killing intent.

On the other side, after a bloody battle, Lin Fan was panting, his clothes tattered and torn, his body covered in various wounds.

There were knife wounds, sword imprints, and claw marks… In short, many, bloody, some even fatal.

However, Lin Fan was smiling, his face completely devoid of fear. On the contrary, there was a sense of excitement and anticipation.

"Soon, when the Ancient Cave revives in the next cycle, I will be able to obtain all the scriptures and comprehend the true meaning of the World-Ending Fist!"

Lin Fan whispered, sitting there to heal his wounds. The entire chaotic Ancient Cave had fallen silent at this time, and the imprints had receded.

Of course, this was only temporary. He was waiting, having understood the规律 of this place: approximately every half a month, there would be an Opportunity to listen to the scriptures.

"Dong!"

Indeed, as soon as half a month passed, the Immortal Cave vibrated, and a ripple-like fluctuation came from deep within, activating all the carved images.

Vaguely, at the end of the Ancient Cave, a black great hall emerged from the Chaos, which was precisely the Legacy site Lin Fan had seen before!

However, that was no longer important. He knew the fist art by heart; all he lacked was the Dao scripture.
