Chapter 619: Chapter 619: The Mural’s Radiance, Narrating Ancient Times!

He did not leap over directly.

Instead, he continued to focus on the light circles radiating nearby.

"The second one closest to me is another ’death’ character!"

Lu Chen chanted softly while reinforcing his memory, and images began to surface in his mind, revealing all the characters he had remembered.

Beyond seeing "life" and "death" again, Lu Chen did not find the characters for "one" or "nine."

"I think I’m beginning to understand," Lu Chen mused for a moment, vaguely uncovering something.

It seemed that the first character he stepped on was the starting point, forming a corresponding four-character idiom.

"The idiom with two ’lives’ should be ’endless life,’ and after ’life and death,’ it should be ’vitally important’!"

He searched his memory and indeed found those four characters, positioned at the right places, from near to far.

"It looks like my conjecture is true!"

Lu Chen was delighted inside, appreciating the mystical aspects of the formation even more from deciphering such a character array!

However, he had not yet learned about formations, or he would have grasped even more.

Exhaling deeply, Lu Chen then leaped straight over to the second "life" character.

After that, he continued to bound forward without stopping.

Until the very last step, when he landed on the "exist" character, only a dozen feet away from the original position where he discovered the character formation.

And after he came to a halt.

The murals on both sides changed once again!

With a thunderous roar, the colorful paint turned into flowing light, swirling back and forth continuously.

At the same time.

Lu Chen also slightly turned his body, opening his inner vision to its utmost.

Having to face danger nine times with only one chance for survival, he had finally come to the last "life."

So what changes would this "endless life" bring about?

The more Lu Chen understood about the character array, the more he realized how terrifying the power of formations could be.

If given the chance, he definitely must study it thoroughly.

After all, he would have to go to the Spirit World someday.

The more techniques he had, the stronger his self-preservation would become.

After observing for a while, Lu Chen noticed that the flow of light on the mural did not show any signs of stopping but kept circulating incessantly.

Gradually, the flowing light from both sides merged into a circle, revolving around Lu Chen as its center!

"Endless life?"

Lu Chen uttered the four characters he had just stepped on, also filled with confusion.

Suddenly, he thought of something, withdrew his inner vision, and turned to look forward with his naked eyes!

With inner vision, he could see all the paint on the ring of light; although clear, it seemed somewhat chaotic.

But when he looked forward with only his naked eyes, a whole new change occurred!

"What is this..."

His limited view allowed him to focus on what was in front of him; within the flow of light, the cultivators and beasts depicted on the mural seemed to come to life.

"It appears to be showcasing a battle between ancient cultivators and ancient beasts!"

Finding this novel piece of information, Lu Chen couldn’t help but become invigorated.

Previously, he had heard the conversation between Chu Zhongtian and Li Mo, talking about how going to the Spirit World wouldn’t result in the current situation.

Could it be.

Weren’t the battles between the ancient cultivators and ancient beasts of the Ancient Times the cause of the current state of affairs, which led to the Mortal Realm being unable to realize the Great Dao and being limited to the Nascent Soul Stage?

To ascend any higher, one would have to go to the Spirit World!

Lu Chen dared not imagine how tragic that battle had been.

But as the light continued to swirl, Lu Chen’s breathing gradually became more rapid.

He saw one of the ancient cultivators whose eyes shone with a unique cold light.

This light gave him an incredibly familiar feeling.

"It’s the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique!"

Lu Chen, staring for a long time, suddenly recognized it, took a deep breath, and then stood there motionless.

He saw that the cultivator of the Hatetian Clan suddenly materialized a long spear in his hand and drove it into the chest of the beast in front of him.

"Immortal Guides the Way! The very technique from Heavenly Inquiry Spear!"

Lu Chen murmured, his heart already overwhelmed by shock.

But then, something even more shocking happened.

Only to see.

The cultivator from the Hatetian Clan quickly turned and thrust his spear into another cultivator behind him!

Killing the beast, and then killing a human!
