Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System

Chapter 577: Chapter 577: The Ancient Text That’s Hard to Recognize_1

Another ancient city was discovered!

The last discovery happened when Dawu was in the Eastern Xuan Region, yielding a wealth of Stone Statue Puppets.

What Chu Yuan found incredible was the vast distance this ancient city was from the first one, it was located in the oceanic area of the Feathered Divine Realm.

Upon initial exploration, the architectural styles of both cities were strikingly similar.

Clearly, they were created by the same entity.

“Ouyang Ming, take some people from the Refining Department, and Feathered Light, come with me to the ancient city.”

With the same architectural style, Chu Yuan couldn’t ignore it.

The lost city was shrouded in an immensely chaotic void, Chu Yuan completely enforced his country’s fate and there were already many cautiously excavating.

“Your Majesty, this is the ancient city discovered in the Feather Divine Realm oceanic region.”

Feathered Light gazed at the city buried deep beneath the ocean floor; this discovery was indeed a fortunate one.

“Looking at the scale of the city, it’s much larger than the one in the Eastern Xuan Region we found earlier. We excavated Stone Statue Puppets from that one, so perhaps there are some here too.”

Ouyang Ming understood that his majesty wanted him there for the Stone Statue Puppets.

“We will see upon excavation.”

Chu Yuan waited patiently.

Due to the ancient city being buried deep in the seabed for countless years and because of the colossal size, and not wanting to damage it, the excavation process was slow. After several days, the full view of the city gradually appeared before everyone’s eyes.

The city was ancient and identical in style, with its size at least ten thousand times larger!

It was a mammoth-sized city lost and buried at the bottom of the sea!

If the previously excavated structure was a small city, then the one in front of them would be a capital city!

“This city is the size of a capital.”

Chu Yuan lead his men into the city.

It was eerily quiet with no trace of life anywhere.

Time seemed to have stopped here. Despite being buried for countless years, there was no sign of decay. Judging by its appearance, this city was seemingly built on land and subsequently buried underwater due to geographical changes.

“It was probably sheltered under a potent prohibition charm initially, but was suddenly buried under the sea.”@@novelbin@@

Ouyang Ming made a guess based on the terrain.

“There are traces of written characters here. These characters are incredibly old; I can’t recognize them!”

“These characters probably date back to an era even more ancient than the Antiquity, so much so that any relative texts from that time have been wiped clean. Only in cities like this one can we find any trace.”

“Perhaps these writings conceal secrets.”

There were constant conjectures.

“Your Majesty, I am familiar with some of these characters.”

The person speaking was City Lord Xu, Xu Xing.

He furrowed his brows, read carefully, and with difficulty said “Your Majesty, I enjoy collecting a wide variety of secret refining materials, and researching ancient symbols. Though these symbols are ancient, I have seen and studied them before. I can’t recognize many but you see, these two symbols combined mean ‘eternal’.”

“Eternal? Could it be referring to the Eternal Universe?”

Ouyang Ming suggested.

“Perhaps so.” Xu Xing continued to decipher. “As for these few, this character is ‘god’, this one ‘conquer’, and this ‘destruction’. These two characters together stand for ‘catastrophe’.”

He observed a few places on the wall where text was scribbled, reading off sporadically.

“The last one here is ‘sky’, the others I don’t know.”

Xuxing shook his head, indicating helplessness regarding the remaining inscription.

‘Eternal’, ‘god’, ‘conquer’, ‘destruction’, ‘catastrophe’, ‘sky’. It is hard to string together the meaning of these individual words, and they could only make uncertain guesses.

Chu Yuan was not disappointed that only a few phrases could be discerned, this was already beyond his expectation.

There was another plan brewing in his mind.

“A country has many resources both tangible such as strongmen and resources, and intangible ones like knowledge. This knowledge is transcribed onto several materials. We need to establish a National Library.”

After considering, Chu Yuan felt it was a necessity.

He said, “Let’s proceed.”

“Stone Statues!”

As anticipated, within this huge main city existed countless stone statues.

The small city housed only a million Stone Statue Puppets, whereas there were billions here, forming a giant wartime army.

The stone statues were eerily quiet, standing eternally. From them, one could sense a great intimidating atmosphere, like earth-shattering tools of war.

“Billions of Stone Statues!”

Even Ouyang Ming was stunned.

There were so many!

“These stone statues are similar to an army, there are strict ranks within them, the most numerous would be the standard soldiers, then the officers, leaders, and the sovereigns!”

Knowing these Stone Statues are a type of puppet, the refining masters immediately approached them for research.

“Come take a look at these three stone statues!”

“The power of these three stone statues!”

“Good heavens, these three statues can withstand the strike of a Divine Power, and the power of one of their punches is equivalent to the Divine Power. Although not quite as powerful as a true Divine Power, they are still major weapons on the battlefield!”

“Just what type of existence was this ancient entity to be able to create such Stone Statue Puppets!”

“It’s unimaginable!”

The group of Refining Masters were shocked.

Not mentioning the vast scale, there were even statues capable of contending with the Divine Power. This craftsmanship that was used to create them surpassed their imaginations.

If they could unlock and awaken all the puppets here, the military strength of the Imperial Dynasty would greatly multiply.

“The Refining Department shall put forth their best efforts to unlock the Stone Statues!”

Ouyang Ming had made up his mind.

The Refining Department today was not what it used to be, not just a few cats and kittens. There were countless Refining Masters and manpower could be allocated to aid in unlocking the stone statues.

“Your Majesty, we have other findings.”

Someone who had conducted a search reported: “While we have not discovered any traces of ancient bodies, we have found a great number of materials. Upon analysis, we found that these materials were used for the creation of Stone Statue Puppets. They are extremely old, some of them are Divine Gold, difficult to locate in the present times and are found deep within the Eternal Universe.”

Such findings were absent in the smaller city, but were found in the main city.

Chu Yuan nodded: “It seems this place was once an ancient civilization’s base for creating Stone Statue Puppets.”

“There are in Eastern Xuan Region, Feathered Divine Realm, it seems the ancient entity’s rule was far more expansive than I expected. There are these traces in other parts of the Eternal Universe.”

Chu Yuan thought a lot: “Yao Guang Holy land had once speculated that deep within the foundation of the Eternal Universe, a drastic transformation is taking place, possibly revealing these ancient cities.”

They appeared at this juncture.

Chu Yuan couldn’t help making these speculations.

He suddenly thought of how similar incidents to the predecessor Emperor and the army of 300,000 were found in the Feather Divine Martial Domain. Today’s dividual Martial Domain and the first discovered undersea ancient city were not too far apart.

“Refining Department, give all you’ve got to unlock the Stone Statue Puppets, I will provide ample manpower and material resources.”

Chu Yuan issued the royal decree.
