Chapter 1047 Stone Infant

 

“Calculate the fortune for the person who was just standing next to me. He really believes in your divination skills,” Fang Yu said to Xiao Ling.

“Since it’s Mr. Fang’s request, I will certainly comply.” Xiao Ling smiled.

Fang Yu gave Xiao Ling a deep look, then turned and jumped down from the cloud.

At this moment, Xiao Ling looked toward Su Changge in the crowd and raised her hand.

Su Changge’s body flew up uncontrollably, moving toward Xiao Ling.

“It’s finally my turn!” Su Changge was overjoyed.

In the square, there was another wave of sighs.

…

Fang Yu landed directly behind the Question Heaven Stone.

While watching the fortune-telling earlier, he finally remembered where he had seen the name Taixu Sect before.

It was in the document that Bai Konggu had given him!

Taixu Sect, Leap Gate Square!

This was the entrance to an ancient relic site!

And Leap Gate Square was this small plaza where they were currently located!

There was nothing special about this square except for this huge oval-shaped stone.

Combined with the strange feeling it gave Fang Yu.

It was almost certain that this stone was the key point to opening this ancient relic site.

Fang Yu raised his right hand and placed it on the Question Heaven Stone.

A trace of coldness penetrated through his palm and entered Fang Yu’s body.

This feeling was clearly abnormal.

The entrance to an ancient relic site was a giant stone?

Fang Yu thought for a moment, retreated from the crowd, took out his phone from his pocket, and called Su Lengyun.

Five minutes later, Fang Yu hung up the phone and looked at the Question Heaven Stone again with surprise in his eyes.

He had asked Su Lengyun to take out the map he had drawn from the Spirit Ring and check the opening time of the ancient relic site located at Taixu Sect.

February 19th, 2:00 PM.

Today!

This was the second ancient relic site to open in February.

According to that document, five more ancient relic sites would open in the next eleven days.

“2:00 PM… it’s now 1:50.” Fang Yu glanced at the time on his phone and squeezed back into the crowd.

Arriving in front of the Question Heaven Stone, Fang Yu directly activated his Eye of Insight.

As his vision changed, Fang Yu’s expression slightly altered.

He saw that inside this oval-shaped stone, there was actually a baby’s body curled up!

Although in his vision, he could only see the outline glowing with a faint light.

But Fang Yu was certain that this was the body of a baby.

Its body was curled up in a ball, with rhythmic, subtle movements in the abdomen… it was breathing!

A living baby inside such a sealed stone?

Fang Yu’s eyes showed some shock as he magnified his vision, focusing on the baby’s head.

The baby seemed to be sleeping, motionless except for its steady breathing, with nothing particularly special about it.

But the very existence of a baby sleeping inside a giant stone that had existed for who knows how many years was extremely bizarre.

Fang Yu stared at the baby’s face, deep in thought.

But in an instant, the baby’s eyes suddenly opened!

Two red beams flashed!

In Fang Yu’s vision, this baby actually opened its mouth and smiled at him.

Combined with those eyes glowing with red light, this smile was quite creepy.

Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze unwavering as he stared back at the baby.

The baby made no other movements, just staring directly at Fang Yu.

Pure evil!

This was the only feeling Fang Yu had about this baby.

The light emanating from its eyes wasn’t red light, but blood-colored!

In the vision of the Eye of Insight, that bloody feeling was particularly intense.

What exactly was this thing?

After staring at the baby for a moment, Fang Yu pulled back his gaze, took out his phone, and checked the time again.

It was now 1:55 PM.

In five minutes, it would be the time mentioned in the document for this ancient relic site to open.

But this stone… was it really the entrance to an ancient relic site?

The previous ancient relic entrances were completely different from this one.

Although some entrances were on snowy plains, some on the sea surface… those places were all accessible.

But the Question Heaven Stone before him was just a giant oval stone.

Where was the entrance?

And what was the purpose of this baby emanating an evil aura inside the Question Heaven Stone?

Fang Yu frowned deeply, feeling increasingly uneasy the more he thought about it.

Time was passing minute by second, quickly reaching 1:57.

At this moment, Xiao Ling, who had been above the Question Heaven Stone, had finished reading Su Changge’s fortune.

As Su Changge descended, Xiao Ling also came down.

A wave of confused voices arose from the surroundings.

“Isn’t Mr. Xiao going to continue fortune-telling? He’s only seen two people!”

“Mr. Xiao, please read my fortune, I came all the way from Great Western Forest…”

“Mr. Xiao…”

Amidst the clamor, Xiao Ling landed beside Fang Yu.

His gaze was also fixed on the Question Heaven Stone.

“Mr. Fang, this stone…” Xiao Ling said with a stern expression, “is very unusual.”

“I know.” Fang Yu held his phone, watching the time flow.

Two minutes left.

“Boss, do you know what Mr. Xiao told me…” Su Changge also came to Fang Yu’s side, but noticing the grave expressions on both Fang Yu and Xiao Ling’s faces, he immediately closed his mouth.

He followed their gaze toward the Question Heaven Stone.

The giant stone before them had nothing particularly special about it except for its smoothness.

So, he didn’t understand why Fang Yu and Xiao Ling were both staring at this stone.

“What are you waiting for?” Xiao Ling glanced at Fang Yu and asked.

“2:00 sharp,” Fang Yu said.

“2:00 sharp… you mean the entity inside this stone will appear at 2:00?” Xiao Ling asked.

Fang Yu turned his head to look at Xiao Ling and asked, “You also know there’s something inside this stone?”

“I’m afraid it’s not something… but a baby.” Xiao Ling narrowed his eyes and said with a grave expression, “I can’t see its appearance clearly, but the feeling it gives me… is not good.”

“Mr. Xiao…”

At this moment, the clamor around them grew louder.

Jiang Tianhe, who was at the edge of the square, seeing that something was amiss, immediately came to the square, to Xiao Ling’s side.

“Mr. Xiao, may I ask if you’re not planning to continue fortune-telling?” Jiang Tianhe asked hesitantly.

Today’s gathering organized by Taixu Sect had attracted many young cultivators from various sects.

If Xiao Ling only read fortunes for two of them before stopping… it would inevitably cause a lot of dissatisfaction.

But facing Xiao Ling, Jiang Tianhe didn’t dare to force him to do anything, he could only ask tentatively.

“I can’t continue for now…”

As Xiao Ling was speaking, he suddenly looked up at the sky.

At this moment, thick clouds were drifting in, blocking much of the sunlight.

When anomalies appear, heaven and earth change.

Xiao Ling raised his left hand, making a gesture with his fingers as his face turned pale.

“Sect Leader Jiang, please immediately evacuate the young people from the square,” Xiao Ling turned to Jiang Tianhe and said.

Hearing this request, Jiang Tianhe was stunned, then showed a troubled expression and said, “If Mr. Xiao doesn’t wish to continue fortune-telling… then I’ll let them start the normal gathering. After all, many people have come from afar, and it doesn’t seem appropriate to just send them away…”

“Sect Leader Jiang, that’s not what I meant…” Xiao Ling frowned and said, “An evil spirit is about to appear here, everyone must be evacuated, or they will be affected!”

An evil spirit appearing!?

Jiang Tianhe’s expression changed slightly, then he forced a smile and said, “That’s impossible! Mr. Xiao, our Taixu Sect has stood on Small East Mountain for five hundred years, and we have always emphasized doing good deeds. Such a thing could never happen…”

“He’s telling the truth. If you don’t want blood to flow here, you’d better evacuate the crowd,” Fang Yu looked at Jiang Tianhe and said calmly.

Jiang Tianhe looked at Fang Yu, frowning with displeasure, and said, “Who are you? How dare you curse our Taixu Sect like this…”

Fang Yu sighed helplessly, withdrew his disguising energy, and revealed his true face.

“I am Fang Yu. If you don’t evacuate the crowd, I’ll demolish your Taixu Sect,” Fang Yu said.

Seeing this face, Jiang Tianhe’s expression changed dramatically, and he stepped back several paces.

He had been present at the meeting that day and had personally witnessed Fang Yu’s terrifying power…

He never imagined that Fang Yu would appear before him in this manner!

“You, you…” Jiang Tianhe’s face turned pale, looking at Fang Yu in terror, unable to speak.

“I’ll give you ten seconds to evacuate the crowd. Ten…” Fang Yu said expressionlessly.

Jiang Tianhe immediately turned around, leaped into the air, and flew up.

“Everyone, an unexpected situation has occurred, please leave this place immediately!” Jiang Tianhe shouted loudly, his face pale.

Below, the young cultivators were discussing among themselves, but no one moved.

Jiang Tianhe thought of Fang Yu’s face, gritted his teeth, and roared, “Leave immediately!”

This startled the young cultivators below.

Although they didn’t know what was happening, they didn’t dare to directly confront Jiang Tianhe and hurriedly dispersed.

As the crowd scattered, the time reached 1:59.

“You’d better step back,” Fang Yu stared at the Question Heaven Stone and said.

At this moment, he saw that the baby inside the stone had stood up.

Xiao Ling and Su Changge exchanged a glance and stepped back.

Jiang Tianhe, who was in mid-air, retreated to the side, watching the situation.

He was still completely confused, not knowing what was happening.

Time passed second by second.

Soon, the moment of 2:00 sharp arrived.

Fang Yu looked at the giant stone before him, his eyes alert.

All around was silence, and the giant stone remained motionless as before.

After waiting for more than ten seconds, there was still no movement.

Su Changge frowned, about to speak.

“Crack!”

Just then, a fissure appeared on the surface of the giant stone!

The cracks multiplied… one, two, three…

“Boom!”

Two seconds later, the giant stone exploded with a thunderous sound!

As stone fragments flew in all directions, a small figure shot out from within, lunging directly at Fang Yu, who was closest!
