Chapter 162: Chapter 102: The Ancient Cataclysm (Part 2)

Qin Jin appeared thoughtful and continued to ask, “Have you ever heard of Sacrificial Spirits?”

“Unheard of.”

After just two brief questions.

The response power of the Enlightenment Stele grew even weaker.

Qin Jin brought up information related to the Celestial Cyan Immortal Dynasty, but none of the responses were useful.

This Enlightenment Stele, before it shattered, was hidden in the Far North Land, far from the mortal world.

After shattering, its memory became fragmented, and its knowledge even more limited.

After confirming that there would be no more gains, Qin Jin ended this conversation.

He used Primordial Power to sense the state of Shi Cang’s Divine Spirit, and upon confirming that he was continuously growing, Divine Intent wrapped around the word [Enlightenment] and withdrew from this dismal realm.

As he exited.

This dismal world dimmed once more, and the Enlightenment Stele was completely silent, with only Shi Cang’s Divine Spirit emitting a faint glow, nourished here, gradually growing.

Divine Intent withdrew from the Abyss.

Between Shi Cang’s brows, the golden line still existed, having grown somewhat, resembling a closed third eye.

However…

Qin Jin knew that within this eye, there was no pupil, but a broken world.

The Primordial Power quietly observed this little fellow for a while, then left the place, returning to its own form.

In the cockpit, Qin Jin raised his hand and rubbed his temples, organizing his thoughts.

“The magnificence of the Celestial Cyan Divine Dynasty is truly beyond imagination.”

“Celestial Pride born into the world might even attract treasures, becoming an accompanying treasure.”

“What level of power would that be?”

“The external force it mentioned should refer to the blood of the Three-headed Exotic Python, the power absorbed during each medicinal bath.”

“The Divine Country the Enlightenment Stele referred to doesn’t quite match the legends I’ve heard in the Great Wilderness, indicating they are probably not the same entity.”

“It has never heard of Sacrificial Spirits, proving that Sacrificial Spirits weren’t a method during the Celestial Cyan Immortal Dynasty, possibly emerging in later generations.”

“Grand Cataclysm…”

Qin Jin analyzed while speculating internally.

“The scene of the giant cauldron ascending to the sky among the Mountain and River Fragments, was it before or after the cracks in the sky?”

“Currently, it seems that the Celestial Cyan Immortal Dynasty vanished during that Grand Cataclysm, and after that, who knows how many ages have passed before new forces began to appear on this land.”

“That is, the legendary Divine Country deep within the Great Wilderness, as well as some human tribes offering Sacrificial Spirits.”

“Their extraordinary methods could have been self-developed, or perhaps they acquired some ancient heritage, thereby paving a unique path.”

“Then came the resurfacing of the Mountain and River Cauldron fragments.”

Qin Jin gazed skyward: “For some unknown reason, the Mountain and River Cauldron fragments were triggered, sealing off this region, likely severing connections between the Divine Country and the tribes, leaving only human tribes offering Sacrificial Spirits on this land today.”

In his heart, Qin Jin gradually constructed a timeline.

“Continue cultivating.”

“When confidence is sufficient, proceed to that gateway, perhaps then everything will be verified.”

A fleeting thought crossed his mind.

Qin Jin opened his palm, facing upward, and with a slight mental motion, the word [Enlightenment] enveloped by Divine Intent emerged.

It was merely the size of a fingertip, slowly rotating in his palm.

Qin Jin’s Primordial Power integrated into it.

The moment the power fused in, the rotation speed of the word Enlightenment intensified, gentle light blossomed, and Qin Jin’s Heart Spirit, at this moment, experienced a sense of clarity, streamlining his thought process significantly.

“What is this?”

Qin Jin familiarized himself with this transformation: “It seems like a genuine enhancement on the level of comprehension!”

“In this state, if I cultivate the Visualization Technique, my speed in analyzing and understanding will surely see a remarkable increase.”

“Enlightenment Stele.”

Qin Jin silently recited this name, his eyes swirling with thoughts: “I still cannot ascertain whether everything it says is true.”

“But judging by its behavior, it’s indeed wholeheartedly aiding Shi Cang, and it is worthy of its status as a Celestial Forged Treasure.”

“Having lost [Way], the word Enlightenment is fragmented too; even at its weakest, it still had this effect. What could it be like when complete?”

The thought passed, and the word Enlightenment vanished.

Qin Jin’s gaze turned toward the small hut where Shi Cang resided, and with a slight mental motion, Wish Power surged out, forming a Restriction on top of the existing barrier, adding protection.

As of now.

He has already determined the source of the barrier.

To protect Shi Cang, the outermost layer of the barrier was set by the Enlightenment Stele.

The inner cocoon was formed by the Blessing power combined with Shi Cang’s innate radiance.

Now, an additional layer of Wish Power Restriction was added to the outermost layer.

Beside him.

Qi Chuan and Ding Yang had been quietly waiting.

At this moment, seeing that Lord Sacrificial Spirit finally made a move, they exchanged glances, both noticing the eagerness in each other’s eyes.

“Shi Cang is fine.”

And at this time, Qin Jin’s voice rang out.

Upon hearing the voice.

Qi Chuan and Ding Yang both breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Jin’s voice carried authority: “During my absence from the tribe, has there been any significant events occurring within the tribe?”

Upon hearing this, Qi Chuan earnestly said: “Lord Sacrificial Spirit, the tribe has been relatively stable.”

“During this period, our Sacrificial Fire Tribe has grown to nearly six thousand tribesmen, qualifying it as a large tribe.”

He retrieved from beside him a roll of Beast Hide Map, held it in his hand, and together with Ding Yang, each held one side, unrolling the map.

On the map, with the Sacrificial Fire Tribe at its center, detailed information about the surroundings was depicted.

“This is the final map confirmed by the tribesmen after meticulous exploration.”

“Aside from this, the exploration team has also marked some Mysterious Lands, recorded separately.”

“Have there been encounters with other tribes?”

While scanning the map, Qin Jin inquired aloud.
