Chapter 247: Four-Eyed Eight-Armed Vajra Reappears

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

So, this was the true location of the Ancient Fan Nation ruins?

Was the poisonous lake outside a smokescreen or did it have some other use?

Lin Yan felt a chill down his spine. Ancient Fan Nation had been destroyed hundreds of years ago!

What was that thing that called him here?

Humans had a limited lifespan. Lin Yan had learned this from Liu Lanqing before.

Even Jade Grade Noble Realm, Wondrous Realm, and Heart Realm cultivators did not live longer than ordinary people!

At most, they would be healthier.

Those who could live for hundreds of years were probably not humans!

However, the existence that called him over used words and a human voice that he could understand…

Lin Yan’s expression was solemn as he forced himself to focus on the thing in front of him.

After the chains on the blood-colored stone coffin wrapped around the jade lotus petals, they still circled one more time and gathered at the lotus core.

The four jade branches that stretched out like wires also extended from the core of the lotus.

There must be something strange in the lotus core.

Lin Yan looked up. The jade pillar was too tall, and the jade lotus petals were too big. Standing here, he couldn’t see what was in the center at all.

He squatted down slightly and gently stepped on the ground. His body rose into the air and he jumped six to seven meters high, grabbing the chains around a stone coffin that was hanging in the air.

He was about to use the force to jump onto the lotus platform above.

Suddenly, the blood-colored stone coffin shook violently, as if something had suddenly knocked on the coffin wall inside. Then, a muffled roar that sounded like the roar of a wild beast suddenly sounded!

Lin Yan’s expression changed as he kicked the stone coffin. The dust covering the stone coffin scattered, and Lin Yan flew back and landed on the ground again.

In midair, the overhanging stone coffin swayed left and right. Dust scattered in all directions, and the sound of chains colliding spread far and wide in the silent underground world.

From the dust on this stone coffin, it could be seen that this stone coffin had not moved for countless years, but whatever inside was still alive!

The fire was dim. Lin Yan’s eyes widened as he stared intently at the swaying stone coffin. However, other than the stone coffin swaying left and right due to inertia, it didn’t move at all. Even the roar just now seemed to be an illusion.

As the shaking of the stone coffin slowly decreased, the surroundings returned to silence. Everything seemed to be an illusion.

In the darkness, Lin Yan’s bright eyes never left the stone coffin for a moment. He only remained silent and waited quietly.

There seemed to be a breeze blowing gently.

BANG!

Suddenly, there was an explosion!

The blood-colored stone coffin that was originally stable suddenly exploded. The bronze chains shattered and scattered. The coffin lid that weighed more than a thousand kilograms suddenly flew out and covered Lin Yan’s head!

Lin Yan’s eyes turned cold. The Azure Dragon phantom that had been accumulating power around him lit up, and a copious force surged throughout his body. He reached out and pressed down, taking two steps forward and forcefully stopping the coffin lid that was flying over.

However, his vision was blocked by the coffin lid. He only saw a huge black shadow shoot out of the stone coffin and rush behind the coffin lid.

In the next moment, six extremely muffled sounds sounded like rapid raindrops. A huge force was instantly transmitted from the lid of the stone coffin to Lin Yan’s hand.

The green dragon phantom around him suddenly lit up again. Two pits suddenly appeared in the ground under his feet. He forcefully resisted this huge force and did not move.

On the other hand, the blood-colored stone coffin in the middle could no longer withstand the destruction of the two huge forces in front and behind. Cracks appeared. Lin Yan’s body floated gently and he instantly retreated to the back.

The coffin lid finally couldn’t take it anymore and shattered into pieces, revealing the treacherous figure behind.

The moment he saw it, Lin Yan’s heart skipped a beat. This creature had four eyes and eight arms, like an angry Buddhist statue…

Four-Eyed Eight-Armed Vajra!

The creature hidden behind the coffin lid was actually the four-eyed eight-armed golden statue he had found in the underground stone room back then!

At that time, Lin Yan had his doubts. He felt that the Four-Eyed Eight-Armed Vajra had jumped to the dome and grabbed the top wall.

However, later on, the Eight-Armed Vajra fell and shattered into rocks, so he suppressed this doubt.

However, now that he looked at it, he immediately understood that the four-eyed eight-armed Vajra was not a statue, but a living thing!

The Eight-Armed Vajra in front of him was fierce and more than three meters tall. Its body was like a demon god, and its entire body emitted a jade luster. Compared to the Eight-Armed Vajra he had seen back then, it was clearly more agile and lively.

Six of the eight arms behind him were extremely thick, like iron arms. However, the other two seemed to have developed deformities. They were shriveled and curled up. There was a flesh membrane growing beside them. If one looked carefully, they actually… looked like human arms!

The Four-Eyed Eight-Armed Vajra seemed to have been born. It opened its four strange eyes and tilted its head to observe Lin Yan carefully.

“Could it be that it has intelligence? Could it be that it called me here?”

However, in the next moment, the Eight-Armed Vajra suddenly glared angrily and let out an extremely miserable roar. It waved its six thick arms crazily and charged at Lin Yan!

Lin Yan flipped his palm, and a ball of Savage Flame rose, turning into a saber. The green dragon phantom shone again before its body moved slightly.

Sizzle! Sizzle!

Two faint cutting sounds sounded in a row. Lin Yan’s figure had already appeared behind the Eight-Armed Vajra. He heaved a sigh of relief. The Eight-Armed Vajra looked strange, but its strength was very weak.

Behind him, the left and middle arms of the Eight-Armed Vajra had already been broken.

However, the strange thing was that there was no blood flowing out from the places where its arms were broken. The arm that fell was actually shattered into pieces like a jade stone.

Clearly, the Four-Eyed Eight-Armed Vajra was not made of flesh and blood, but an extremely strange existence.

Its arm was cut off, but it didn’t feel any pain. Instead, it roared and charged at Lin Yan again.

Lin Yan had already held back just now, wanting to intimidate it to obtain information. Otherwise, he could directly behead it with a slash.

However, from the looks of it, the Eight-Armed Vajra was a monster without intelligence and could not communicate at all!

A moment later, Lin Yan searched carefully, but he didn’t find the eye-shaped Spirit Marrow he had found in the underground stone room on this Eight-Armed Vajra.

He stood up and looked at the Eight-Armed Vajra that had been shattered on the ground with a solemn expression. He felt even more horrified and strange.

What were these Eight-Armed Vajras?

Why would such a Four-Eyed Eight-Armed Vajra appear in the ruins of the Ancient Fan Nation?

Its arms on both sides were like a human’s?

Was there a similar Eight-Armed Vajra in every stone coffin hanging on the jade pillar?

In the Chaotic Fog, there was a terrifying monster that was 30 to 40 meters tall and huge. It had eight eyes on its head and eight terrifying arms.

What did that monster have to do with this Four-Eyed Eight-Armed Vajra and Ancient Fan Nation?

Liu and Ling had said that similar flows of people had been rather frequent in the past ten years. It was unlikely to trigger the Chaotic Fog…

On the other hand, the underground world under the poisonous lake, be it the jade pillars, jade lotuses, hanging coffins, or gravity reverse, all of them revealed secrets and strangeness…

Therefore, the Chaotic Fog was very likely targeting Ancient Fan Nation, which was the underground ruin here?

The more Lin Yan thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense. What secrets were hidden in this underground world?

Why was it able to trigger the Chaotic Fog?

Lin Yan looked up at the lotus at the top of the jade pillar and jumped onto the empty stone coffin again. Then, he gently climbed up and jumped onto the lotus platform.

“This is…!”

Lin Yan was shocked. There was actually someone on the Lotus Platform!

However, he soon discovered that the person sitting in the middle of the lotus platform was not a living person. Instead, it was an old monk.

Twelve bronze chains were pulled out of the twelve lotus petals and connected to his body. They were nailed to his waist with a rough copper nail, making a circle.

Behind him, there were four jade nails. They formed four extremely long jade branches that extended into the darkness.

“A wood carving… or is it really a wood carving?”

Lin Yan’s expression was solemn. Having seen the strangeness of the Four-Eyed Eight-Armed Vajra, he naturally wouldn’t treat this wooden sculpture as a simple wooden sculpture.

Upon closer inspection, Lin Yan found that his expression was lifelike. He was no different from a real person. He looked different from the old monk Lin Yan had seen in the underground stone room. The only similarity was that his face was filled with pity, as if he was praying, as if he was ferrying souls.

The wooden statue didn’t move, and Lin Yan didn’t touch him. Looking at the jade branch that extended out behind him, Lin Yan raised his hand and cast another Radiant Fire in the direction of the leftmost branch.

The fire immediately lit up this direction.

“That’s…”

Lin Yan’s pupils constricted slightly. He saw that this branch extended for hundreds of meters. At the end of it, there was also a similar jade pillar!

It was too far away, so Lin Yan couldn’t see where the branches were connected to. He only saw twelve blood-colored stone coffins hanging on the jade pillar!

So, the jade nails on the old monk’s body were connected to other jade pillars?

The jade pillars in the poisonous lake were not related to each other. However, were the jade pillars connected to each other in this strange underground world under the poisonous lake?

The more he observed the Underworld, the more mysteries Lin Yan had.

But presumably, someone or something else would answer him…

Lin Yan stood on the lotus platform and scanned the entire island.

There were a total of nine jade pillars on this island. One was in the center, and eight were distributed symmetrically around the island.

According to the direction, the jade pillar that had called Lin Yan over was not the jade pillar in the center, but the one on his left!

Lin Yan jumped down from the lotus platform. In a few steps, he came to the side of the jade pillar. This time, he didn’t grab the stone coffin below. Instead, he directly activated the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder. His entire body rose from the ground and landed on the lotus platform.

Lin Yan’s eyes were extremely solemn as he stared at the old monk on the lotus platform who was also pierced and nailed by the twelve chains. His left hand was in front of his chest, and his right hand was clenched into a flower-pinching finger and placed on his knee.

“Could it be that you were the one who called me here…

Lin Yan said softly.

In the next moment, a brilliant golden light suddenly lit up on the fingertip of the old monk’s right hand.

Before Lin Yan could react, the golden light expanded in the wind and instantly transformed into thousands of golden lights that enveloped Lin Yan.

In a moment of desperation, Lin Yan could only retreat. At the same time, the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder and Vermillion Bird Burning the Nine Heavens were activated at the same time.

However, his body did not feel any discomfort, nor was he injured.

When his eyes adapted to the golden light, Lin Yan opened his eyes and was stunned on the spot.

It was a dazzling and resplendent scene, and the pavilions and palaces were like a paradise.. Amidst the resplendent golden light, a myriad of grand and imposing Buddhist halls had actually suddenly appeared!
