Chapter 47: Heavenly Earth Absolute d*ath Formation, Another Part of the Truth
After an hour passed, Chen Changsheng successfully emerged from his cultivation state.
Feeling the late Nascent Soul cultivation within himself, Chen Changsheng smacked his lips and said, “The late Nascent Soul should be enough. If I want to break through to the Spirit Master realm, I estimate it will take ten years, which is not cost-effective.”
With that, Chen Changsheng climbed out of the stone coffin and moved around to loosen his stiff body.
At the same time, he began to ponder the problem of the slow consumption of his spiritual strength. Whenever he fell into a deep sleep, all the mechanisms in his body would stop functioning.
As a result, the spiritual energy within him would slowly evaporate like moisture from meat.
Although he could quickly cultivate it back, having to remaster it each time he fell asleep was too much of a hassle.
Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng took out the Beast Skin Book and began flipping through it, quickly finding a solution.
“The Heavenly Earth Absolute d*ath Formation, it’s just what I need!”
With a clap on the Beast Skin Book, Chen Changsheng, with a beaming smile, selected an array formation.
The Heavenly Earth Absolute d*ath Formation is one of the three great killing formations recorded in the Beast Skin Book.
According to the description, those who enter this formation sever the path to heaven and cut off the Yellow Springs, leading to an end to heaven, an end to earth, and an absolute end to life.
This incredibly powerful formation should be able to seal off the spiritual energy leaking out of his body while he is in a deep sleep.
After selecting the formation, Chen Changsheng happily stepped out of the Bronze Ancient Palace and began to etch the path patterns for the formation.
The Heavenly Earth Absolute d*ath Formation is a killing formation; transforming it into a binding formation without lethality is no simple task.
However, Chen Changsheng had time, and such work could certainly be completed gradually.
…
“Phew~”
Carefully stepping out the last move, Chen Changsheng finally reached the safe zone of another Bronze Ancient Palace.
“Your Majesty, I spent a full ninety years collecting your remains.”
“I trust you wouldn’t let my efforts be in vain.”
Muttering a few words to the bones of the Left Emperor, Chen Changsheng placed the translucent bones into the coffin.
As for the Left Emperor’s missing lower half, Chen Changsheng couldn’t find it at all, so he had to use a wooden carving as a substitute.
Having completed the burial for the Left Emperor, Chen Changsheng naturally received two rewards.
These two rewards were the tip-less True Martial Sword and a gold piece that the Left Emperor regarded as a heart-protecting mirror.
Looking at the gold piece in his hand, Chen Changsheng furrowed his brows and began to mumble.
“Isn’t this the Nine Transformations Profound Skill of the Xuanwu Kingdom?”
“Moreover, I feel like I’ve seen this somewhere before.”
Saying this, Chen Changsheng rummaged through the system space and finally pulled out a similarly textured gold piece.
The two gold pieces gradually aligned to fill the gap, ultimately forming a complete and unblemished page.
Faced with this situation, Chen Changsheng looked helplessly at the Left Emperor’s coffin.
“Your Majesty, this is somewhat unscrupulous of you!”
“So, it turns out someone from the ancestors of the Xuanwu Kingdom had entered the Ancient Forbidden Ground and brought out some things.”
“I had always wondered why the Xuanwu Kingdom had no one enter the Ancient Forbidden Ground, yet they knew there was a Bronze Ancient Palace inside.”
“Now, with the Nine Transformations Profound Skill as proof, this puzzle is solved.”
After saying that, Chen Changsheng looked at the gold piece in his hand, seeing the characters on it that he couldn’t recognize at all.
The only reason he could identify this as the Nine Transformations Profound Skill was purely by coincidence.

Zuo Xinghe had a translated version of the Nine Transformations Profound Skill among his belongings.
Next to the name of the Nine Transformations Profound Skill were four strange symbols, and at the time, Chen Changsheng casually asked about them.
Zuo Xinghe mentioned that the four symbols represented the Nine Transformations Profound Skill, but how to translate such symbols was something no one in the entire Xuanwu Kingdom knew.
Chen Changsheng hadn’t paid much attention to this at the time.
After arriving at the Ancient Forbidden Ground, one day, Chen Changsheng found the other half of the gold piece in the soil.
This gold piece was indestructible and had extremely sharp edges; although he didn’t recognize the symbols on it, he still kept it as a collector’s item.
If it weren’t for finding the upper part of the Nine Transformations Profound Skill from the Left Emperor, Chen Changsheng would likely have lived for another ten thousand years without even knowing this was the other part of the Nine Transformations Profound Skill.
Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng patted the Left Emperor’s coffin and sighed.
“Your Majesty, all those unsolvable mysteries in this world are probably born this way.”
“Someone from the ancestors of the Xuanwu Kingdom must have entered the Ancient Forbidden Ground. Just how much did the ancestors of the Xuanwu Kingdom understand about the Ancient Forbidden Ground? Only you would know.”
“And the ancestors of the Xuanwu Kingdom brought out the remnants of the Nine Transformations Profound Skill from the Ancient Forbidden Ground.”
“Bringing something out from such a dangerous place is enough to prove this thing is extraordinary.”
“Now that you are dead, these secrets have been completely taken into your coffin, which is somewhat regrettable.”
After saying that, Chen Changsheng turned and walked towards the Bronze Ancient Palace.
Since learning that Niansheng had disappeared in the teleportation array inside the Bronze Ancient Palace, Chen Changsheng had been investigating the Bronze Ancient Palace.
After spending a full two hundred and ninety years, he finally achieved his goal; what he needed to do now was to understand the situation of the Bronze Ancient Palace.
…
Inside the Bronze Ancient Palace.
Countless patterns were continuously rearranging and combining, eventually forming a scroll with only part of its content missing.
Unlike the Bronze Ancient Palaces in the Limitless Secret Realm and Night Moon Nation, the Bronze Ancient Palace within the Ancient Forbidden Ground was relatively well-preserved.
Thus, Chen Changsheng acquired a more detailed picture.
In the past, all living beings had borrowed this unspecified power to escape the grasp of the “Giant Hand.”
At first, all living beings had indeed repelled the “Giant Hand.”
However, later, they discovered that this unspecified power was actually eroding the world.
In light of this situation, all living beings allied with the “Giant Hand” and successfully pushed back the unspecified presence.
Although they had repelled the unknown threat, remnants of its power still lingered.
In order to prevent the unknown from returning, all living beings chose to collaborate with the Giant Hand to forge these eighteen Bronze Ancient Palaces, assigning them to be guarded by eighteen different races.
Among these, nine Bronze Ancient Palaces were entrusted to the Giant Hand, and to ensure mutual communication.
During the construction of the Bronze Ancient Palaces, they combined the forces of heaven and earth, engraving a tri-colored teleportation array within.
This tri-colored teleportation array not only had an extensive range of teleportation but also would not be interrupted by other influences.
Theoretically, after such tribulations, all living beings should be able to coexist with the “Giant Hand.”
However, who would have thought that they would fight again? Therefore, there had evidently been ten tiers of distinct events here.
The patterns at the front and those at the back were clearly not inscribed at the same time.
After viewing all the stories, Chen Changsheng wore a blank expression.
The tri-colored teleportation array could be directed for teleportation, but due to war and the passage of time.
The eighteen Bronze Ancient Palaces had likely moved from their original positions; thus, the tri-colored teleportation array could only teleport randomly.
As for the one in seventeen chance, would he truly be able to find Niansheng successfully?
