Chapter 287 The opportunity has arrived
Chen Yunhao walked around these stone pillars several times. Because they were too ordinary, they looked like totem poles made by mortals.
So he couldn't figure out what this place was used for, but since the spirit of the weapon commanded him to come here, it must know.
"Senior, is there a secret between these pillars?"
"There is indeed a mystery. Don't be impatient. Let me slowly explore it."
This time Chen Yunhao was a little surprised. In the past, as long as the weapon spirit took a fancy to it, it would be taken away like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.
But this time when he returned to the land, the spirit of the weapon was still staying steadily in his dantian, which shows that this place is extraordinary.
It was already afternoon when Chen Yunhao arrived here. As the sun set in the west, it shone obliquely on these stone pillars.
The shadows on these stone pillars are long, and without exception they all point to the thin pillar in the middle.
Chen Yunhao didn't pay attention at first, but in the end he saw that these shadows were converging towards the center. The most important thing was that there was no shadow on the pillar in the middle.
The shadows cast by the surrounding pillars converge on the central pillar and then seem to be absorbed, ending there.
As the sun sank directly below the horizon, the entire island was plunged into darkness.
But the pillar in the middle emitted a faint light, like the light reflected from the sun, not dazzling, but very eye-catching on this inky black island.
This ray of light shot up into the sky along the pillar, but disappeared after it reached a height of more than ten feet.
"Brilliant, it's a clever design indeed... It can even hide from my perception, amazing!"
The weapon spirit's voice of surprise rang out in Chen Yunhao's mind.
"Senior, have you got any idea?"
Chen Yunhao couldn't understand. The world was so big and full of wonders. He never thought that he was a child of destiny. If he couldn't do it, he just couldn't do it!
"I understand, but this place is of no use to you and me..."
As the spirit of the weapon told the story, Chen Yunhao finally understood what this strange stone pillar formation was used for.
This is a positioning formation that has existed for who knows how many years. It automatically sends fluctuations of this world to the upper world every day, allowing people in the upper world to find this world very accurately.
Because it has to break through the boundary and send positioning fluctuations every day, the spirit of the weapon can feel the spatial fluctuations here even though it is hundreds of thousands of miles away.
This positioning formation was extremely cleverly crafted. Before it was activated, the spirit of the weapon had no idea what it was used for, and only just now did it understand.
This positioning formation has the same effect as the one used by the demon clan to guide messengers from the upper realm to the lower realm, except that the stone pillar formation in front of us can automatically send them every day without interruption, which is obviously more advanced.
"Senior, are you sure this positioning formation is used to communicate with the upper realm? Perhaps it's the demonic realm, or even the underworld? I think it's better to destroy it."
"Your concerns are plausible. The pillar in the middle is artificially forged. Go get it. It might be useful to you in the future."
Chen Yunhao nodded silently, walked to the middle pillar, and looked it up and down.
The lower end of the pillar was stuck in the rock.
Although the middle pillar is relatively thin, it is as thick as Chen Yunhao's thigh.
Chen Yunhao clasped his hands together, shook them left and right a few times, then exhaled, made a sound, and pulled upwards with all his strength.
This pillar was buried ten feet deep underground and weighed nearly ten thousand pounds.
Although it was indeed heavy, fortunately Chen Yunhao's physical strength was not weak. He used only 30% to 40% of his strength to pull up the pillar.
“Smash it….”
The spirit of the weapon commanded Chen Yunhao to punch the pulled-out pillar. A few crackling sounds were heard, and the pillar broke into more than a dozen pieces, revealing a smaller stick in the middle.
This stick is only as thick as a child's arm and as tall as him and a half. The surface is covered with runes, and it is obviously a man-made thing.
However, this stick is not a magic weapon, nor does it fall into the category of magic treasure. It is just like an ordinary iron rod.
It was just right for Chen Yunhao to hold in one hand, and the weight of nearly ten thousand pounds was within his tolerance.
"This stick is made of meteorite gold, so it has the ability to travel through space. You can refine it later and use it to refine a space magic weapon."
Chen Yunhao grabbed the iron rod and swung it up and down twice, feeling that this thing was more powerful than using the giant sword.
"Is meteorite gold strong enough?"
Chen Yunhao asked while waving the iron rod in his hand.
"It's not easy for your master to refine it..."
Chen Yunhao nodded with satisfaction. He didn't plan to refine it for the time being. It would be better to use it as a replacement for the giant sword!
Without this iron rod, the entire positioning formation would be completely useless.
Chen Yunhao spent a night on the island and continued his journey north early the next morning. The ice field was the end of his journey.
The two ice fields in the north and south are the most mysterious places in the eyes of all monks in the Boundless Sea. There are many legendary records in the miscellaneous notes. How could Chen Yunhao not go and see them?
However, it is still millions of miles from here to the ice field, and the journey alone will take one or two years.
But Chen Yunhao was not in a hurry. He would not turn back until the matter was settled.
They traveled during the day and hid at night. After several months, they had no idea how far they had traveled, but it must have been at least a million miles.
The journey was relatively peaceful. Apart from a fierce battle with a few sea monsters, we hardly encountered any human monks.
However, the further north you go, the cooler the climate becomes.
Because he had to travel every day, Chen Yunhao sat in the flying boat and multitasked, carefully pondering a spell.
"Hey little brat, pay attention, the opportunity has arrived..."
Upon hearing that there was an opportunity, Chen Yunhao suddenly became alert and immediately regained his consciousness, looking around.
"Go to the right! I just felt a huge spatial fluctuation. Hurry!"
Chen Yunhao could hear the sense of urgency in the weapon spirit's tone, and he really didn't dare to delay at all. He simply put away the Aurora Boat, used the Flowing Light Technique, and turned into a long rainbow and flew away.
Chen Yunhao would definitely not stop until the weapon spirit told him to. Even though he had been flying at full speed for nearly an hour and his internal energy had been consumed by 30%, he did not dare to slack off at all.
Another half hour passed and we saw an island in the distance, about four or five thousand miles in diameter, lush and green and very conspicuous.
However, the overall picture of the island could not be seen clearly, as if it was shrouded by an invisible ban, giving it a hazy feeling.
When you fly closer, you can see that there is a bubble-like barrier around the outside of the entire island.
"What kind of place is this? How could there be such a large mountain protection restriction?"
Chen Yunhao said to himself in surprise.
The Thunder Mountain where he was located was considered the richest and most powerful sect, but it did not have the ability to create a large ban that could cover thousands of miles.
This involves financial and capability issues, neither of which can be ignored.
