Chapter 2690: Chapter 2690: Entering the Demon Abyss Again
"Oh!" Jiang Zi’er nodded and suddenly remembered something, asking, "By the way, Brother Su, did you really retrieve that half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet?"
Su Yang nodded, recounting his experiences in the Chaos and Immortal Palace to Jiang Zi’er. Finally, he took out the half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet.
This half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet was different from the one Su Yang had seen before. Although the aura on this Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet was powerful, it didn’t have the mind-numbing effect of the one inside the Demon Abyss, making it distinctly different.
Precisely because of this, Su Yang was able to take this half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet away. Otherwise, if this Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet was like the one in the Demon Abyss, Su Yang truly wouldn’t have been able to take it.
"The aura of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet is so strong; even if we hide it inside the World Melting Furnace, the Guardian God would certainly sense its presence!" Jiang Zi’er said worriedly, "Brother Su, it’s not safe to keep the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet in the World Melting Furnace either!"
Su Yang nodded: "Therefore, I plan to also place this half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet into the Demon Abyss!"
"Ah?" Jiang Zi’er immediately shook her head, "That definitely won’t do!"
"Why?" Su Yang was surprised.
"If we place this half of the Heavenly Dao inside the Demon Abyss, it might merge with the half already there, forming a complete Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet!" Jiang Zi’er said urgently, "Once the complete Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet is restored, the once-existing Heavenly Dao can be revived. It took great effort for the Heaven Slayer to originally break the tablet. Once restored, the rules of the Heavenly Dao can reappear, and the Guardian God won’t need to seize the tablet to fight against us!"
Su Yang startled, acknowledging Jiang Zi’er’s statement as entirely accurate. Given that the shattered half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet could fuse in Chaos, combining the two halves had a high likelihood of being successful.
If done, the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet would indeed fuse, and he would be the cause of a great disaster, truly becoming a sinner of the Human Clan!
"Thank goodness you reminded me!" Su Yang also felt a chilling fear in his heart, "If you hadn’t said it, I really intended to put this half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet into the Demon Abyss."
"That’s impossible!" Jiang Zi’er shook her head, pausing for a moment, and said, "Moreover, Brother Su, you must’ve noticed it too. The half-tablet in the Demon Abyss is somewhat different from this one!"
Su Yang nodded, and indeed, he felt that difference. The half inside the Demon Abyss seemed to have a conscious awareness, which was very strange.
"The rules of the Heavenly Dao are mostly concentrated in the half within the Demon Abyss. This half primarily governs Spiritual Energy!" Jiang Zi’er stated, "Speaking of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet, the essential part is the one in the Demon Abyss. This half of the tablet isn’t as significant."
"I see!" Su Yang suddenly realized, looking at the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet before him, finally understanding why it didn’t have that mind-tempting allure.
"Given this, the placement of this half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet must be thoroughly considered!" Su Yang sighed, pondering on where to place it so it remains absolutely safe, given it can’t be in the Demon Abyss.
Jiang Zi’er also drifted into thought; she truly could not discern any place to securely put this half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet.
"How about I ask my master?" Jiang Zi’er suggested.
Su Yang’s eyes lit up: "That would be great."
Jiang Zi’er left to seek her master’s advice, while Su Yang stayed busy, hiding the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet inside the Chaos Gourd at his residence. Then, he ventured alone into the Demon Abyss.
Everything in the Demon Abyss remained unchanged; there hadn’t been any developments over the years.
Su Yang entered the palace within, observing that the area shrouded by black energy had tightened slightly in range.
Entering the black energy’s territory, Su Yang saw the half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet suppressed in the black energy, along with the person standing atop the tablet.
Su Yang knew the situation with the half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet distinctly well. However, who was the person on the tablet?
Previously, Su Yang always assumed this person was the leftover body of the Heaven Slayer.
But upon learning more about the Ancient Times, Su Yang realized this person couldn’t be the Heaven Slayer.
During the ancient battle, though the Heaven Slayer severed the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet, he paid a severe price. The most pivotal point was that after that battle, the Heaven Slayer’s physical form crumbled, leaving only his Divine Soul, his illusion with the absconded half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet.
The Heaven Slayer’s body broke apart, leaving only the illusion besides his Undying Bone.
The Undying Bone is now in Su Yang’s possession.
As for the Heaven Slayer’s body, it has completely shattered into nonexistence.
Thus, this person on the tablet definitely wasn’t the Heaven Slayer.
Now the question arises, if this person isn’t the Heaven Slayer, who could he possibly be?
Undoubtedly, this individual stands here to suppress the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet.
Looking across the Primordial Era, how many individuals can subdue the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet?
Su Yang stared at the man atop the tablet for some time. The man had closed eyes, seemingly unaware of the external environment. Yet Su Yang understood that any slight change concerning the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet would prompt this man to act instantly.
Contemplating for a while, Su Yang folded his hands and said, "Senior, I have returned with the other half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet. But now the Guardian God is thoroughly enraged, with the Immortal Palace’s inhabitants emerging in large numbers solely to reclaim the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet. The Human Clan is weak, not an opponent of the Guardian God, unlikely to hold onto the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet. I came here seeking your guidance, how should that half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet be dealt with?"
The man on the tablet remained with his eyes closed, as if completely oblivious to Su Yang’s query.
Su Yang felt frustrated; could such a significant issue concerning the Human Clan not catch this man’s attention?
"Senior, the Human Clan is facing a crisis. Although we’ve rebuilt Reincarnation, returning powerful figures from the Primordial Human Clan, these individuals are disunited..." Su Yang helplessly communicated the current conditions in the World Melting Furnace, finally looking at the man, respectfully saying, "The internal strife of the Human Clan is no match for the Guardian God. If you can hear me, I hope you can emerge to take charge of the situation!"
The man remained motionless, and Su Yang felt even more disheartened. This man was apparently indifferent to the Human Clan’s plight!
After inquiring further without receiving any response from the man, Su Yang realized that seeking assistance from this individual seemed hopeless.
