Chapter 5, The Scripture of Mending the Heavens [New book, please read!]
When Pang Bo stood up from the corner, his flip-flops scraped against the stone slab with a dull thud.
The tall man, over 1.8 meters tall, stood in the darkness, looking like a small mountain suddenly rising up.
He strode towards Su Ye.
"Taoist Master..."
Pang Bo hesitated for a moment before asking, "What's going on? Where is this? Where are we going?"
Even the breathing stopped inside the coffin.
More than twenty pairs of eyes were fixed on them.
This is a question that everyone has been keeping to themselves for a long time.
When Lin Jia asked, she was shut down by six words, and when Zhang Ziling asked, he didn't even get a response.
Now Pang Bo asked again, directly and specifically, more so than all the others combined.
He is waiting.
Su Ye opened her eyes.
His gaze fell on Pang Bo.
This closest brother of Ye Fan later followed Ye Fan step by step in the Big Dipper Starfield, fighting his way up from mortal to great power, from the Big Dipper to the Ancient Star Road...
That kind of life-or-death friendship was not accidental.
About two breaths later, his voice rang out.
"Inside the coffin."
Just two words.
Pang Bo waited, but after a long time without any follow-up, he paused for a moment, then asked, "And then?"
"The interior of the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin is a self-contained space."
Su Ye sat up straight cross-legged, placing her hands on her knees.
"This coffin is not for burying people."
Ye Fan had already approached without anyone noticing.
He stood two steps behind Pang Bo, and upon hearing this, his expression faltered slightly. He then asked, "What kind of people are you ferrying?"
Su Ye paused for a moment.
"To ferry those who journey to the other side of the starry sky."
Ye Fan's doubts deepened.
Pang Bo, quick to speak, followed up with, "Were those dragons real or fake?"
"Are we going to die here?" Zhang Ziling asked, leaning halfway out from the crowd.
"Where is this coffin going? To Mars or the moon?"
"Speak up!"
"Do you know something? Tell us!"
The sounds overlapped, and the coffin walls bounced back the echoes, making a buzzing sound.
Su Ye glanced around, his gaze lingering on each person's face for less than half a second.
His voice wasn't loud, but it cut through all the noise.
"Nine dragons pull the coffin, leading to another place."
Not a word more, not a word less.
After saying that, he closed his eyes again.
It felt like something had been sucked out of the air.
The students standing around looked at each other in bewilderment.
Someone opened their mouth to ask, "Where is 'other place'?", but seeing Su Ye's face, which showed no intention of speaking again, they stuck the words in their throat.
Zhang Ziling opened his mouth, then closed it again.
Silence spread.
Then someone muttered something.
"Stop pretending."
The sound wasn't loud, but in the quiet coffin it was like a stone hitting the surface of water.
Liu Yunzhi's words drifted over from the corner: "Since you know, Daoist, why not explain it more clearly so everyone can feel at ease?"
"that is!"
As if a switch had been flipped, Li Changqing raised his voice and said, "Stop playing mysterious!"
"You've brought people to this godforsaken place and you still won't explain yourself?"
His words shifted the focus—from "Su Ye didn't inform" to "Su Ye may bear responsibility."
Several people's expressions began to change.
The act of seeking help has turned into a form of scrutiny.
Liu Yunzhi glanced at Ye Fan and added in a flat tone, "Ye Fan, you seemed to be quite familiar with the Taoist priest on the mountain."
"Just who is he?"
These words were both concise and sharp.
It wasn't that Ye Fan had a problem, but rather that since the two of them were getting close, they should give an explanation.
Ye Fan remained unfazed.
"I am not familiar with the Taoist priest."
"I just saw that it was dangerous for him to be standing there, so I gave him a heads-up."
Liu Yunzhi did not press the matter further.
No need to ask further questions.
The words have been sown, and the surrounding silence is the best fertilizer.
Several classmates glanced back and forth between Ye Fan and Su Ye.
It wasn't anger, it was hesitation.
When people are afraid, they don't need evidence, they just need a possibility.
A possibility that "maybe you know but didn't tell us."
Pang Bo quit.
He stood up abruptly, his towering height of over 1.8 meters making a dramatic entrance in the crowd, and boomed, "Li Changqing, what nonsense are you spouting!"
"If Ye Fan knew this, would he still be squatting here, scared along with you guys?!"
A buzzing echo came from inside the coffin.
Li Changqing flinched at the shout, nearly hitting the coffin wall with the back of his head. He moved his lips but couldn't push back.
Zhou Yi squeezed out of the crowd and put a hand on Pang Bo's shoulder.
"Now is not the time for us to guess each other's intentions."
His voice wasn't loud, but it was controlled.
"We need to stick together. We can talk about it outside."
Lin Jia also stood up.
Everyone knows what kind of person Ye Fan is.
Don't let a few words mislead you.
Zhou Yi was respected among his classmates.
Lin Jia is the same.
The portions for both of them combined are enough.
The atmosphere gradually relaxed.
Liu Yunzhi didn't say anything more.
He retreated to the corner, squatted down, and pulled Li Changqing's sleeve.
The two people were standing very close together, their voices hushed down so that only the other person could hear them.
"This Taoist's abilities are unclear, and Ye Fan is connected to him..."
Li Changqing nodded.
From the time the Nine Dragons pulled the coffin and closed the door to the fall of the ancient star Mars, this part in the original work is quite long.
Su Ye silently counted her breaths in the darkness.
He remembered what would happen next.
Yingluoguxing.
The ruins of the Great Thunder Temple.
The ancestral crocodile was suppressed below.
He went over it in his mind.
In the Big Dipper Star Region, a person at the Divine Bridge Realm wouldn't even be considered an ant.
In a cultivation world where cultivators at the Four Extremes Realm and even the Dragon Transformation Realm are everywhere, and only powerful beings at the Sendai Realm can make a fuss, Su Ye is very clear about his position.
But there is an opportunity on the ancient star Yinghuo.
Great Thunder Temple.
Many Buddhist artifacts remain in that Buddhist temple that has been abandoned for thousands of years.
Broken magical artifacts, incomplete Buddhist scriptures, and fragments of ritual implements whose spiritual essence has been largely worn away by the passage of time.
To cultivators at the Sendai realm and above, those things are nothing but scrap metal.
But for a cultivator at the Divine Bridge Realm, that's enough!
Moreover, this is the first place where the World Tree seed can absorb fortune on a large scale.
Su Ye opened her eyes in the darkness.
The World Tree seed in the center of the Sea of Bitterness trembled slightly.
He secretly activated the Nine Yang Scripture.
The golden seed spun in his sea of suffering, emitting a faint golden light.
It traveled through Su Ye's body, passing through meridians and bones, and flowed into the space between his eyebrows.
Suddenly, a more magnificent and awe-inspiring sound emanated from the ancient bronze coffin before them, which was both simple and mysterious.
It seems as if the great Dao of Heaven and Earth is resounding itself, and it also contains the supreme and mysterious principles flowing within it.
"The way of Heaven is to take from those who have too much and give to those who have too little..."
Like the celestial voice of the Great Dao, the very first sentence originates from Daoist classics.
But what followed was an ancient and mysterious scripture that had never been recorded in the world before. The words were obscure and difficult to understand, and it was impossible to comprehend even a little bit of it!
But Su Ye knew that this was an astonishing scripture inscribed inside the bronze coffin: the "Mending Heaven Scripture"!
He dared not delay and immediately memorized the scripture.
After an unknown amount of time, Su Ye opened his eyes, his breathing heavier than before.
Ying confused.
Coming.
