Jin Rou touched the stone and closed his eyes, like everyone did. However, he didn't walk back and forth and just remained standing still in one location.
"This Little Friend here," Elder Zuwo called out Xiu'er. Since he didn't know what his name was, he decided to call him 'Little Friend' for the time being, "Do you think that your big brother can successfully do what he said?"
Jin Rou claimed that he could comprehend the ancient text engraved in the large stone as a whole, meaning that he would be able to comprehend it 100%.
This kind of feat was impossible even for Elder Zuwo. After all, aren't the three legendary figures could only reach the 30% comprehension rate? Take note, these three were once the strongest of their era.
However, for some unknown reason, Elder Zuwo could feel that Jin Rou might pull off a feat that was deemed to be impossible.
Brother Yu and Fairy Qing were greatly anticipating the humiliation that Jin Rou would brought upon himself. After all, they seriously didn't believe about his claim.
They couldn't wait to see the humiliated expression that Jin Rou would reveal later.
Furthermore, they had already prepared a lot of mocking statements the moment Jin Rou failed so that they could relieve all their pent-up frustrations caused by this man.
Too bad, though. The expected scenario wasn't going to happen.
"Whoosh! Rumble!" After a few minutes of standing, the land shook. Thousands of pillars of light shot towards the never ending sky. The pillars of light came from the vast sea of clouds, so the scene was a sight to behold.
"Wham!" Then, an instrumental music played out. It was like a music which came from heaven. It was comfortable to the feeling that those who felt suffocated a while ago suddenly felt so light and refreshed.
Of course, not just them but even those old people in the crowd and Elder Zuwo was affected by this as well.
"Boom!" After which, the large stone, which was filled with dao runes and symbols, exploded in a mild manner. The symbols flew out of the stone and circulate in the sky. Each symbol had their own colors that painted the blue sky colorful and grand.
"This..." Most of the time, Elder Zuwo was composed and rarely that he would lose himself. But now, this spectacle before him was too much to take as his eyes widened in utmost stupefaction. He took a deep breath and said, "This Daoist Friend here has successfully comprehended the whole ancient text."
As the Elder who usually took care of this place, he knew what this phenomenon meant. He had read this in an old record in their place.
Hearing the confirmation coming from the elder, everyone was flabbergasted. Their faces revealed an extreme degree of astonishment while watching the grand and majestic scene unfolding in the sky.
"Impossible..." Brother Yu and Fairy Qing couldn't believe their eyes. Where was the expected humiliation of this young man? It was the only picture they could imagine a while ago, thus, this happening was difficult for them to absorb.
After all, they wholly believed that no one was capable of comprehending the whole ancient text.
They wished their eyes were just playing tricks on them. Unfortunately, the reality was in front of them, slapping their faces.
"There's no way that is possible!" Brother Yu received a heavy blow because of this. Although the truth was laid before his eyes, he still refused to acknowledge it.
"To think that the ancient text will give me a huge aid to my cultivation. Amazing." Jin Rou muttered under his breath. This was a pleasant surprise for him as he didn't thought much about this large stone.
But who would have thought that he would benefit greatly from here? Perhaps, the stone was dedicated for people who reached the Zenith God realm. Furthermore, Jin Rou used to like the light. Thus, the process went smoothly.
"You cheated, you wastrel!" Brother Yu's complexion wasn't any good. He was also not in the right state of mind, that's why he could say something silly like this.
"Brother Yu, please calm down. He really did comprehend the whole ancient text and that's what everyone, including you, saw." Fairy Qing was much more calmer and composed. After all, she wasn't as childish like Brother Yu.
At least, this lady could admit defeat. Unlike the shameless person who kept on shaming himself here.
"No!" Brother Yu shook his head in denial and kept on giving Jin Rou a barrage of accusations, "You tricked us! You definitely did! You used a spiritual system that could trick our eyes!"
"Can you shut up for once?" Jin Rou glared daggers at Brother Yu. However, it wasn't filled with any intent, "You clearly saw the process. You are already shameful enough. Stop shaming your sect anymore. Such a disgrace you are if you can't even accept such defeat."
"You!" Brother Yu was instantly enraged, "Damn animal! I'm the Young Master of Burnfield Stone Sect and you dare to say that to me?! Your life shall be the pay for your sin!"
Brother Yu released a long sword with an ancient aura. He was about to dash forward when someone had knocked him unconscious by hitting his nape by bare hand in a chopping manner.
"Violence is strictly not allowed in this place." It was Elder Zuwo who did that, "I don't care if you are from a powerful force called Burnfield Stone. If you violate a rule, you shall be punished accordingly."
The Elder Zuwo didn't show any mild temperament he showed a while ago. Right now, he was like a tyrant who use fear to subject his people.
Fairy Qing hurriedly ran over to the unconscious Brother Yu and said to Elder Zuwo, "Elder Zuwo, please forgive Brother Yu for his offense. Just this once."
The proud Fairy Qing bowed in front of many people. And she did it because she wanted to save this scum called Brother Yu.
Elder Zuwo snorted and returned to where Xiu'er was.
In actuality, he was not planning on pursuing this matter any further. After all, he managed to stop Brother Yu before doing anything that would break the rule.
