Chapter 228: Intriguing Stone Plate! (1/2)

Cheng Yu opened his eyes with great determination. After a day of refinement, the skeleton had finally become obedient. Regretfully, Cheng Yu was not able to control it right now. He still needed a long time before he was able to refine it completely to gain control over it. Despite that, Cheng Yu was already very excited. He was excited to see if this skeleton was like what he thought, able to grow and evolve, and potentially reach Nascent Soul Realm. Seeing the skeleton sitting in the Qi Swallowing Mountain River Diagram quietly, Cheng Yu stood up and walked to the white bone key hovering above the throne.

“Whoosh!” Just as Cheng Yu was about six inches from the key, the purple water suddenly flew out from his body and floated in the air, taking the form of the bone key. Both keys confronted each other, glowing in bright radiance. Cheng Yu saw both keys acting as if they were friends that hadn’t met for a long time, and he was very happy. Recalling the scene where the purple water had acknowledged him as its owner, Cheng Yu did not have any hesitation. He opened up a small wound in his hand to drip the blood onto the white bone key.

Cheng Yu’s blood infused into the key very quickly. The white radiance disappeared from the key as the key flew into Cheng Yu’s body, becoming one with Cheng Yu. Cheng Yu checked the information stored inside the white bone key. Ultimately, he was disappointed. This key was called Heavenly Bones. The information stored inside was very little, similar to the purple water. It didn’t even have any information about this palace. Cheng Yu was helpless, and could only search for it himself.

After gaining experience from the Amethyst Palace, Cheng Yu was a little hesitant before choosing the right passage. Different from Amethyst Palace, after getting past the main hall of Temple of Heaven, he entered a side hall. Inside, there were five stone doors. In the middle of the hall, there was a sarcophagus. Cheng Yu surveyed the surroundings cautiously before walking over to the sarcophagus carefully.

The sarcophagus had a stone plate covering it. In the middle of the stone plate was a recess with the shape of the Heavenly Bone. However, what caused Cheng Yu to be confused was that on the outside of the stone plate, there were ten seals that were either characters or symbols that Cheng Yu couldn’t recognize. Cheng Yu did not dare to put the key in, but instead he observed his surroundings carefully.

“There’s five doors here. Could it all of it be treasures? Then doesn’t that mean that I have struck it rich again?” Cheng Yu walked down from the step, arriving in front of one of the door.

“It’s these symbols again?” Cheng Yu saw symbols similar to the ones from the Amethyst Palace beside the stone door. So, Cheng Yu ran over to the other few doors and took a look. It was the same ten symbols, just their sequences were different.

“Could it be that these are the lock to the stone door?” Cheng Yu thought. Looking at the protruding symbol on the stone door, Cheng Yu ran over to the sarcophagus and took out Heavenly Bone before placing it into the lock.

“Eh? How come it cannot be turned?” Cheng Yu thought that as long as the sarcophagus followed the same sequence as the stone plate, it would be unlocked. However, the key on this sarcophagus could not be turned.

“Oh. Since it can’t be turned, then it should be this. Changing the sequence of the symbols on the stone plate on the door,” Cheng Yu suddenly saw the light, and immediately reacted. So, Cheng Yu placed the sarcophagus sequence similar to the stone plate. After that, he intended to open the stone plate on the door.

“Eh? There’s five doors here. Which door should I open then?” Cheng Yu walked to one of the doors, pondering.

“The stone plate on the sarcophagus can’t be moved. Then it would forever be pointed at that word. However, there’s five doors here. Then which door should I open? If I open up the wrong door, will there be any dangers?” Thinking of this question, Cheng Yu hesitated. Once again, he ran over to the sarcophagus and started studying it.

“Eh? Isn’t the sarcophagus also pointing at that door? D*mn it! F*ck it. I will be opening you!” Cheng Yu laid down on the sarcophagus and studied it for a while. He discovered that not only was the sarcophagus pointing at a symbol, it was also pointing at a door. Cheng Yu felt that that should be that door. Cheng Yu arrived at the front of the door, concentrating. Once something was amiss, he was prepared to retreat.

“Ka! Ka!” Cheng Yu slowly turned the stone, until the protruding stone was pointing at the same symbol as the sarcophagus.

“…” Cheng Yu stood far away from the stone door. However, even after waiting for a while, there was no movement from it.

“What’s going on? How come there’s no reaction?” Cheng Yu looked at the stone plate that was not even showing the slightest reaction while thinking.

“Could it be that it isn’t this door?” Cheng Yu looked at the other four doors and thought.

“Who cares! I shall try it on the other doors!” Cheng Yu was not able to make head or tails about the current situation. Without a choice, he could only try this out.

“Ka! Ka! Ka!” Very quickly, Cheng Yu turned the five doors to point at the same symbol.

“…” The side hall was still very quiet. Quiet to the point of not showing signs of any motion.

“F*ck! This isn’t right as well!” Cheng Yu was very gloomy when he saw the five doors did not have the slightest reaction. Cheng Yu returned to the sarcophagus, looking at the stone plate solemnly.

“This thing is really unmovable,” Once again, Cheng Yu placed his hands on top of it, verifying it couldn’t be moved.

“F*ck*r! This Temple of Heaven is too f*ck*d up. Making the treasure room so complicated, isn’t it inconvenient for them also?!” Cheng Yu thought in extreme gloominess. Previously when he was in the Amethyst Palace, everything was unobstructed. How could he possibly think that the Temple of Heaven would be so complicated?

“How should I turn this exactly?” Cheng Yu laid flat on his back on the ground and looked at the ceiling gloomily.

“D*mn it. The Palace Master of this Temple of Heaven is really perverted, engraving this kind of thing everywhere,” Cheng Yu suddenly saw that on the ceiling, there was also a large stone plate as he thought in disdain.
