Chapter 25 The Secret of the Bronze Ancient Temple, an Ancient Story

Chen Changsheng’s righteous indignation instantly stunned Lin Hu.

After Lin Hu reacted, he immediately became furious.

But before he could make a move, Hu Zhan’s Nascent Soul Puppet blocked his path.

"Hu Zhan, what do you mean? Are you helping an outsider?"

Facing Lin Hu’s questioning, Hu Zhan glanced at Chen Changsheng, who was intently studying the Bronze Ancient Temple, and said indifferently.

"Lin Hu, killing can be done anytime, but don't forget our purpose for coming here."

As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Hu’s anger dissipated considerably.

The reason he had been targeting Chen Changsheng was not because he participated in the son-in-law recruitment convention.

In the current situation, anyone with a bit of sense knows that this Human Clan person definitely didn't come for Wanyan Yue.

If he didn't come for the Demon Clan Princess, then this Chen Changsheng must have ulterior motives.

A Golden Core Stage Cultivator daring to venture into the Demon Clan's heartland alone definitely has someone backing him.

Making a rash move might alert the enemy.

His escape would be a minor matter, but interfering with everyone’s objective would be a major issue.

Hu Zhan persuaded Lin Hu to retreat, and Chen Changsheng also focused on studying the Bronze Ancient Temple.

After a while, Hu Zhan stepped forward and said, "Brother Chen, have you found any clues?"

Hearing this, Chen Changsheng pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Hu, have you heard of the Limitless Secret Realm within the Great Qian Dynasty territory?"

"I've heard a little. Is there any connection between the Limitless Secret Realm and this place?"

"There is a connection, and it's probably a very significant one."

"There is also a Bronze Ancient Temple in the Limitless Secret Realm; this is no secret in the Great Qian Dynasty."

"However, a Bronze Ancient Temple similar to the one in the Limitless Secret Realm has also appeared in the Forbidden Ground of the Night Moon Country. Brother Hu, what do you think of this matter?"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only was Hu Zhan interested, but even the cold-faced Lin Hu became interested.

Both the Night Moon Country and the Great Qian Dynasty were established over a thousand years ago, and the Limitless Secret Realm and the Forbidden Ground existed since the early days of their establishment.

Since both places have similar sites, could there be some secret involved?

Thinking of this, Hu Zhan said with a curious look, "The Limitless Secret Realm is controlled by the Great Qian Dynasty."

"And only Human Clan are allowed inside. If Brother Chen hadn't mentioned it, I really wouldn't have known about this."

"Don't say you don't know, I suspect not many people between the two countries know."

"The patterns on these Bronze Ancient Temples are quite peculiar and don't look like ordinary decorations."

"If the two of you are not in a hurry, I can try to decipher them."

Hearing this, Hu Zhan looked at Chen Changsheng with doubt and said.

"Many Elders of my Demon Clan have also tried to decipher this Bronze Ancient Temple, but they all returned without success."

"Brother Chen, are you confident in deciphering the things on it?"

Although Hu Zhan didn't say it explicitly, his eyes had already shown his meaning.

So many powerful beings in our Demon Clan couldn't solve it, can you, a Golden Core Stage Human Clan, do it?

Facing Hu Zhan's questioning, Chen Changsheng took out many white papers with patterns and said.

"Facing a single Bronze Ancient Temple alone, I naturally have no confidence."

"But Brother Hu, don't forget, there are also people studying the Bronze Ancient Temple in the Limitless Secret Realm."

"With the two Bronze Ancient Temples combined, there might actually be a way to decipher it."

"If the patterns on this really record certain information, then the people who left these two Bronze Ancient Temples."

"Their purpose must be to let future generations know something, not to deliberately be mysterious."

"The reason we can't understand it is because the time gap is too large, and the former script has disappeared."

Saying this, Chen Changsheng began to compare the patterns of the two Bronze Ancient Temples.

And Hu Zhan and Lin Hu naturally also gathered around to study.

The secret of the Night Moon Country is in the Forbidden Ground, and the Bronze Ancient Temple has existed there since the Forbidden Ground was discovered.

If the secret of the Bronze Ancient Temple can be deciphered, it might be of great help to what happens next.

...

Three hours later.

"So that's how it is!"

Chen Changsheng, who was comparing the patterns, said.

Upon seeing this, Hu Zhan quickly asked, "Brother Chen, have you found something?"

"Yes, I have deciphered the secret of the Bronze Ancient Temple."

"What is it? Tell us quickly."

Lin Hu on the side couldn't help but urge.

Seeing this, Chen Changsheng didn't keep them in suspense but pointed at the patterns above and said.

"As Young Masters of your respective clans, the two of you must also be knowledgeable and talented."

"You must have seen that the patterns on the two Bronze Ancient Temples are related to each other, but you have never been able to find any corresponding script."

Hearing Chen Changsheng's words, Lin Hu thought for a moment and said.

"What does this prove? The time this thing has existed is something no one can tell clearly."

"The disappearance of the script from that time is also within reason."

"Brother Lin is right, but Brother Lin, don't forget, the powerful being who left the Bronze Ancient Temple wanted to convey information to future generations."

"Did that powerful being not consider this matter?"

Facing Chen Changsheng's mystifying words, Lin Hu said impatiently, "If you have something to say, say it. Stop being so cryptic."

Chen Changsheng didn't take Lin Hu's words to heart and continued to speak.

"That powerful being back then must have considered the issue of time."

"Years are long, and the seas turn into mulberry fields. No one can guarantee that the current script can be preserved for the future."

"Therefore, if that powerful being wanted to convey information, they would definitely think of a method that could transcend time and be independent of script."

"This method is the simplest and most effective, and that is pictures."

Saying this, Chen Changsheng suspended the white papers in his hand in the air and then adjusted the order.

After doing all that, Chen Changsheng also used spiritual energy to make rubbings of the patterns on the Bronze Ancient Temple.

The two sets of patterns continuously combined in the air, finally forming a fragmented picture.

"Script may have discontinuities, but pictures will not."

"Because pictures are the first way for all sentient beings to learn knowledge. From the first moment a sentient being opens their eyes, the knowledge we learn is obtained through pictures."

"Seeing mountains, rivers, and plants, we thus know what shapes and colors they are."

"And the patterns on this Bronze Ancient Temple are not script at all, but a vivid picture."

"If we treat them as script, of course we cannot understand their meaning."

Seeing that Chen Changsheng had indeed deciphered the secret of the Bronze Ancient Temple, Hu Zhan and Lin Hu couldn't help but feel a bit more admiration in their hearts.

The Bronze Ancient Temple has existed for thousands of years, yet to this day, no one has been able to decipher its secret.

This Human Clan person deciphered it in just a few hours after arriving here; his wisdom is enough to make people feel ashamed.

After explaining the secret of the Bronze Ancient Temple, Chen Changsheng and the others also began to examine the picture in the air.

Although the picture was incomplete, a part of it remained.

From the picture above, everyone learned a story.
