Chapter Ten Vast and Endless Earth

  Chapter Ten: The Vast and Endless Land

  The dark bronze coffin slowly quieted down, no one spoke again, everyone was filled with fear, staring at the bronze coffin in front of them where the body was placed, and the heavy breathing sounds emitted by the crowd, each person's heart was very tense.

  The bronze coffin is green and mottled, what kind of person was buried inside?

  "All this should be related to the five-color altar on Mount Tai."

  It wasn't until much later that people began to whisper among themselves, wondering how all this had come about.

  "It should be like this, related to the Five-Colored Ancient Cauldron, it's what brought over the nine dragon corpses and bronze coffins."

  Everything seen was too unbelievable, severely impacting the thoughts and perceptions of the people present. The five-colored altar was built by the ancient ancestors, it can be said that it is mysterious and endless, Ye Fan thought about many things, how many unknown secrets were hidden in the extinct ancient history?

  Nothing dangerous happened, and people's emotions gradually calmed down, seriously speculating about everything in front of them.

  "Perhaps the Nine Dragons' Coffin was summoned by the ancient ancestors." As soon as this was said, someone immediately retorted: "The people of the ancient times have long been extinct, and it's not even known how many years ago that was."

  "What I mean is that Jiulong's coffin was late in arriving, and now it has appeared, which is a response to the ancient times."

  When a female classmate put forward this statement, everyone was stunned. The call from the ancient ancestors, the late nine dragons and the ancient coffin, the response across thousands of years, is somewhat unbelievable!

  "What is the truth, we have no way of knowing, everything is just speculation, there are many possibilities."

  "Yes, perhaps Jiulong's coffin has nothing to do with the ancient ancestors at all, but is actually his own return."

  "Have you seen those bronze carvings? There are ancient ancestors, ancient gods, and many of the figures carved with tears, giving people a sense of desolation and sorrow, as if telling a long-forgotten story."

  "Perhaps it's true, nine dragons pulling a coffin, breaking through heavenly dangers, returning to their hometown! A blood-weeping past..."

  Is it possible that the ancient ancestors had an unknown method to explore a distant and unknown place? The nine dragons pulled the coffin, returned home, born and gone, dry bones returned, wrapped in a shroud.

  In the midst of conversation, people's fear gradually decreased, and they came up with all sorts of possibilities. However, they still had a deep reverence for the bronze coffin in the central position, and no one dared to touch it, let alone open it.

  "The person I want to rescue should have boarded Mount Tai by now, maybe they've already arrived at a place not far from here."

  "I hope nothing unexpected happens and we can be rescued soon."

  Everyone had no way to escape from the ancient coffin. The bronze coffin was eight or nine meters high and was sealed with a lid, making it impossible to escape.

  Just as everyone was eagerly awaiting their escape, the bronze coffin suddenly shook violently, causing everyone to lose their balance and stumble, with many people falling directly to the ground.

  "What's wrong? What happened?" The crowd was in a state of shock and uncertainty. Some female classmates even had tears in their voices, tightly grasping the people around them.

  "Has the rescuer arrived? Are they saving us?"

  In the midst of anxiety and terror, the copper coffin shook even more violently, no one could stand upright, almost everyone fell to the ground, in close contact with the icy bronze coffin.

  Bang

  Another loud rumble, like an airplane piercing through the cold clouds at high altitude, forming a thick layer of ice armor, shaking constantly.

  Boom

  The last loud crash was like a thunderclap, as if it would shatter all tangible things. It could be clearly felt that the bronze coffin had undergone a great impact.

  However, it was at this moment that the dark bronze coffin emitted a faint glow from the bronze carvings, instantly offsetting an unimaginable impact.

  Everyone was shocked and uncertain, just a moment ago they felt that the sky was about to turn upside down, but in an instant it became calm and peaceful, giving people a strange illusion.

  "No, just now there was indeed a terrible impact force, how could it suddenly stop?"

  "It wasn't an illusion, the copper coffin did indeed experience a fierce collision, flipping over several times, but we weren't affected."

  At this moment, everyone was shocked to find that the bronze coffin was hanging on the side wall of the coffin chamber, firmly fixed there, and did not fall down.

  "The bronze coffin has now been overturned on the ground, and the small bronze coffin that holds the body must be firmly cast in the bottom of the large coffin, making it impossible to move even a little. Therefore, after the coffin was overturned and tilted, at first glance, it seemed to be hanging on the side wall."

  It's imaginable how enormous the impact was, but it was dissolved by the faint light emitted from those bronze carvings, making people feel unbelievable.

  "Light, light is shining in from outside!" Li Xiaoman exclaimed.

  Everyone turned their heads in unison and looked in the direction Li Xiaoman was looking at, and indeed there was a faint light shining through from the front.

  "The bronze coffin overturned, the lid tilted, and a gap was opened. We finally escaped!"

  The bronze coffin lid was slightly ajar, the gap wide enough for two people to walk out shoulder-to-shoulder. However, it was very dark outside, so the light that entered the bronze coffin was not very clear.

  The crowd erupted in a burst of cheers, rushing forward in a scramble to escape the dark and terrifying space, not wanting to linger for even one second.

  However, when everyone rushed out of the bronze coffin, they all stood still like clay sculptures or wooden carvings.

  The earth was like it had been stained with blood, presenting a reddish-brown color, cold and hard and desolate. The scene before one's eyes was one of bleakness and emptiness, with giant rocks standing sparsely on the ground, looking like tombstones as far as the eye could see.

  The light in this world is dim and hazy, as if a dull twilight shrouded in a faint black fog.

  Everyone was stunned, this absolutely cannot be the top of Mount Tai!

  Endless red-brown earth, desolate and dead silent, without any sign of life, not anywhere they knew.

  Never seen before, never heard of before, a completely strange and mysterious place!

  "Is this... where are we? Have we left Mount Tai?" The speaker's voice was trembling.

  "Did the rescuers isolate us in this uninhabited area because they were afraid that the nine dragon corpses would be dangerous?" The classmate who said these words could hardly convince himself.

  Everyone had a bad premonition, as if something extremely ominous was happening to them. At this moment, many people dialed out with their mobile phones at the same time, but it was impossible to get through, and there was no signal.

  "This is not Mount Tai, where are we?" Many people showed a look of panic, without the joy of escaping, some were just terrified.

  From being trapped in the copper coffin to walking out again, it only took a moment, but the scene before my eyes had completely changed. The majestic and towering Mount Tai, which could look down on all mountains, was gone. In front of me was a vast expanse of rolling hills covered with gravel.

  Ye Fan quietly watched all of this, and his ominous premonition had indeed come true. From the moment he saw the Taiji Bagua diagram condense on Mount Tai to form a massive dark passageway, he had a bad feeling. Although he hadn't seen the Nine Dragons pulling the coffin into that passageway leading to an unknown region at the time, now it didn't take much thought - what was before his eyes was enough to explain everything. He was no longer on Mount Tai, and not even on Earth.
