Repugnant Gateway

Chapter 655 – Stone Statue Adventures

An Zheng was slightly shocked in his heart. This Great Water Snake was clearly a Goblin Beast, which was different from the big clams and big fishes he had met previously. Furthermore, this beast’s grade was not low. An Zheng originally wanted to take a look and retrieve the Demonic Beast Cores s, but when he reached the back, he discovered that the snake’s tail was actually connected to a chain that was already full of embroidery.

The chain had pierced through the water snake’s tail and was connected to its bones. The chain seemed to have becomart of its body and the wound had already healed. It was impossible for the chain to break apart unless the tail was pulled.

After taking out the large snake’s Demonic Beast Cores, An Zheng carefully looked at the chain on its tail and saw the other end was on a large rock in the distance. They were still far away, so the light from the Water Avoiding Pearl wasn’t too clear. Aesult, they could only vaguely see that the shape of the rock was somewhat strange.

When they got closer, they could clearly see that the rock was actually carved from a stone bull. It was at least ten meters tall, and the carving was quite impressive. However, it had been in the water for a long time, and was covered with shell-like things. The strangest thing was that the stone ox’s eyes were open on one side and closed on the other.

Turn a blind eye?

An Zheng couldn’t really guess what that meant. After circling around the Stone Ox, he found that the chain had pierced through the Stone Ox’s body. He tried pushing it, but the stone ox remained unmoving. With An Zheng’s current cultivation level, being completely unable to move the Stone Ox was not normal, so he speculated that this Stone Ox was not the only one.

An Zheng summoned his Holy Fish Scale, and as if he was digging through dozens of large shovels, he began to dig at once. Just as An Zheng expected, the Stone Ox was only a small part of it. Below it was a gigantic humanoid sculpture, and An Zheng had to dig for a long time to only find the head and shoulders part of the statue.

A man carrying a stone ox?

An Zheng felt that the Stone Ox looked familiar, as if he had seen it before. The sculpture below was not as delicate as that of the stone ox. It was only the vague shape of a person with all the facial features. However, it was too rough to distinguish if it was a man or a woman.

He did not expect to see sucuge sculpture under the water. If he were to dig further, he would probably be able to dig at least two hundred meters before being able to dig out the entire sculpture. The river sand kept flowing back, so it was impossible to dig it all out.

But An Zheng noticed that the stone statue’s mouth had opened, revealing a hole.

Curiosity could not be stopped. An Zheng only hesitated for a moment, before deciding to go in and see what was going on.

The inside of the stone golem was around the size of a house. When An Zheng entered, the light from the Water Repelling Pearl could cause a chill to go down inside. After entering the mouth, there waassageway leading downwards. The stone steps were also dug out. The workmanship was not considered exquisite, and there were even traces of a knife carving or chiseling on the top.

Strangely, water couldn’t enter the statue’s mouth. An Zheng took out a few low-levelled tools that were only used for lighting and threw them down. Those tools were like flying insects as they floated there, but they were extremely bright. An Zheng walked down the stone steps. The stone steps were carved at a 90 degree angle, at the beginning, it was sloped, but later on it became craters that could fit half a foot into the ground.

After walking down about 10 metres, An Zheng estimated that they had arrived at the neck area of the golem, and was about to enter its chest area. Not long after, it became wider and brighter. There were no more grooves carved into the ground, making it look likuge hall. An Zheng slowly floated down from above and there was the smell of dry dust in his nose. It was obvious that no one had come here in a very long time, the furnishings in the room were simple and the tables, chairs and chairs were covered in a thick layer of dust.

Inside this stone statue, waesidence that was forcibly pulled out. An Zheng’s current location was where his chest was, and after walking in a large circle, he did not find a path to go down, seems like he could only go to this place and not go down.

An Zheng stood there and thought for a bit. The sculpture was at least 200 meters tall, and if one were to stand on the flat ground, they would need to raise their heads to look, but their faces could not be seen clearly. It was unknown who had built sucuge sculpture in memory of or in praise of, but people would never, ever, see or imagine that a statue with its mouth could fit someone inside.

The hall was huge, and the furniture inside was made of stone. From bed, tables, and even cutlery, it was completely different from the sculpting style of the stone statues. They were meticulously sculpted, and under this unique environment, it was hard to tell how old they were.

An Zheng noticed a book on the table. As he was flipping through the book, a cup was placed beside the book. This involuntarily reminded people of the happy life of the owners who used to live here, sitting and drinking tea and reading books every day.

But why did he live in this statue? An Zheng thought back to his previous plan and thought that this stone statue was too big, so if he were to stand on flat ground, no one would have thought that there was actually someone living inside the statue, so this person stayed away from the world, under the gaze of tens of thousands of people?

If that was the case, he was a very thoughtful person.

An Zheng walked to the desk and looked at the page where the book was opened, had half of the words written on it. So this isn’t a book at all, but a notebook … The man was recording something, but he left halfway through.

An Zheng looked inside the cup, the water in the cup had already evaporated completely, but there was a line left in the cup, meaning that the water in the cup had only been drunk two mouthfuls, with most of it remaining.

A person who lived here and then left in a hurry, never to return. If this notebook was very important, then it was obvious that he was in a hurry when he left. He didn’t even have the time to collect the notes. An Zheng sat on the chair and read from the first page.

[Damn it, those people who kowtowed are too irritating. I truly regret choosing to live in this place. Although no one expected me to be so cocky, the air here is really good …]

“How irritating, I haven’t been able to improve in cultivation for many days, I can’t beat that bastard for now, so I have no choice but to hide.”

“I want a flower girl!”

An Zheng stared blankly for a moment, thinking how the tone of the notebook was so familiar. Then, he suddenly remembered that the diary regarding Immortal Emperor Purple Ivy that Chen Xiaoyao had given him also had such a carefree and uninhibited tone. To say that he was free and uninhibited seemed a little inappropriate, but it should be extremely boring.

An Zheng flipped to the fourth page, and the words on top of it made An Zheng’s heart tremble.

[I don’t know what happened to the shell he raised back then. That guy is a loner. I’m afraid he will become a bad guy in the future. I regret it a little now. He should have roasted it and eaten it before he left. The Cultivation Power that I left behind in the shell, I wonder if it can help a few lucky brats … Eh, why would I say that it was a stinky brat, and why couldn’t it be a beautiful girl?]

F * ck, it’s actually him!

An Zheng remembered that he had met with the Tremor Tremor in the Secret Realm, and almost suffered a great loss inside. It was actually left behind by Purple Ivy, but looking at the strength of his cultivation, Purple Ivy back then was far from reaching the Immortal Emperor Realm … Wait!

An Zheng was shocked.

However, from Purple Ivy’s words, it seemed that it had not been a long time since Purple Ivy had cultivated to the level of an Immortal Emperor … However, the Qi in the trident and the Qi right now had been separated for a very long time, and definitely not in a hundred years. So, was Purple Ivy’s words fake, or was Purple Ivy reaching large success in the Immortal Emperor Realm just a short period of time?

An Zheng thought carefully for a good long while, but in the end, he was completely confused as well.

On the fifth page, looking at the words, the shock in An Zheng’s heart had already reached an unprecedented level.

[Three Lives Three]

What do you mean?

An Zheng continued to flip through, on page 6 it read: This body is indeed not good, Samsara III actually did not have a good body born, I truly have been blinded by my talent, luck, and cultivation technique that no one can compare to. Or should he die again?

Died again?

An Zheng felt that this Purple Ivy was becoming more and more mysterious. Just where did he come from, and what kind of Three Lives Third Brother was written there? Could he be capable of infinite reincarnation? If that’s the case …

An Zheng suddenly thought of something in his heart … Could Purple Ivy really be the Eye of Nine Incarnations from a long time ago?

If that was the case, could the Eye of Nine Incarnations really start reincarnation?

Next page.

[Every time we change to a different place, there will be some gadgets left behind for the later generations. If they are lucky, they might be of great help.] However, the person who f * cking got it might not even say thank you to me. Just thinking about it makes me feel a bit depressed … What should he leave behind this time? How about I take a shit and call it the Eternal Treasure Pill, who can take the Cultivation Power that can raise their cultivation level by one level? Gosh, thinking of this, I feel so happy.

What the fuck is this?

An Zheng thought in his heart that this Purple Ivy was simply someone who couldn’t be predicted with common sense. He wasn’t joking, he might even take a shit and make himself intill … However, when he thought about it again, it was quite disgusting to pinch their feces to play with.

He continued to read.

[Damn it, this isn’t fun. The sh * t I pulled out was too much of a failure, not a single one was decent.] In the future, I want to practice a unique magical technique that allows me to move freely about in the shape of feces. It is really difficult to pull ouound and flawless pill …]

How boring could someone be to do suching?

The last page was the page with half of the words written on it.

[To continue being reincarnated like this is really too boring. Sometimes, I really want to dig out this damned ability, then livappy life and die. How about this, if I can obtain a good body in my next life, I will focus on cultivation, striving to become the most powerful existence at that time, and then I will die just like that.]

He only finished half of the last word, so he did not continue writing it. Maybe the Chou family came to kill him? I can’t beat him for the time being. If this was truly the case, then there would berson who could be considered as Purple Ivy’s archenemy and had been chasing after him the entire time. And judging from the traces left behind by the trident, Purple Ivy was unable to defeat this person for a long time, because he had been hiding.

An Zheng looked inside the room and noticed that there was a wall that was left behind a few meters away from the desk, which changed the structure of the room. There wahin rectangular rock hanging on the wall. It was very well-polished and it was unknown what it was used for. There was also a small rectangular rock on the desk. It was also very thin and regular, like a ruler. But a normal ruler wouldn’t have such a shape and size.

An Zheng was unable to understand some completely useless things.

Just at this time, An Zheng noticed that it should boilet over there. It was obviously a place to sit at, with a lid that was stacked with Holy Fish Scale s … Nine pieces.
