Free Web NovelChapter 1173: Chapter 1172: Two Scrolls
The White Tiger’s gaze fixed on Lin Fan, pondering deeply, while his brows were tightly knit together!
After a moment of contemplation, General Bai Hu finally spoke: "According to tradition, unless you are a descendant of the Sun and Moon Daoist, the blood you drip onto the jade stone will not reflect a bloody light. However, the blood you just dripped onto the jade stone indeed reflected a blood-colored glow, which fits the verification. You are the descendant of Sun and Moon Daoist!"
"I am the descendant of Sun and Moon Daoist?"
Lin Fan’s expression grew somber, filled with confusion!
Old man Lin Kongxian told him he was picked up from outside by Lin Kongxian himself. For over twenty years, Lin Fan has always believed this. Though he wanted to find out about his lineage, he had no order, so he had to give up exploring all these years!
But now, General Bai Hu claims that Lin Fan is a descendant of Sun and Moon Daoist. Could this mean he wasn’t picked up from outside?
If possible, Lin Fan wished to return to the Sun and Moon Divine Sect immediately to ask Lin Kongxian the truth in person!
Lin Fan said, "Senior White Tiger, is what you said true?"
"Of course, it’s true! Back when Sun and Moon Daoist built this Celestial Palace, he personally told me, how could it be false?" General Bai Hu replied.
Lin Fan shook his head and said, "Indeed, I am unsure about my identity; however, my master told me I was picked up by him from outside!"
"I see. It appears your master must be hiding something from you!" General Bai Hu commented!
"Regardless of whether I’m the descendant of Sun and Moon Daoist, I am certainly a member of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect. General Bai Hu and General Qilin are always my seniors; please refrain from calling me ’Little Highness’!" Lin Fan said!
"How could we not? Back when Sun and Moon Daoist rescued us from danger multiple times, such kindness, how could we forget? Moreover, we have experimented before. Others’ blood drops on the jade stone couldn’t emit a bloody light, which proves your identity as the Little Highness beyond doubt!" General Bai Hu insisted!
"Indeed, Little Highness, I and Bai Hu are certainly not mistaken!" General Qilin responded.
Seeing the two’s insistence, and Lin Fan himself couldn’t confirm his own identity, he said, "Then please do as you wish, you are both always my seniors whom I need to address respectfully!"
"Alright! All shall be the Little Highness’s command!" General Bai Hu nodded.
Standing aside, General Qilin also broke into a smile!
Then Lin Fan asked, "By the way, seniors, how was this Celestial Palace constructed?"
"We also do not know, as when Celestial Palace was built, it was by your ancestors, and those who built it were buried according to ancient rites after it was completed, so we are unclear!" General Bai Hu shook his head!
"Then how is the Celestial Palace floating?" Lin Fan voiced the question in his heart!
Floating—this is something all scientific researchers around the globe are meticulously studying!
They have developed airplanes, rockets, and many other things, but they have been unable to achieve floating without any tools escaping Earth’s gravity!
If this were made public, it would surely shake the world!
This is something many people want to accomplish. Lin Fan didn’t expect that in Huaxia, his ancestors had already achieved this great feat!
General Bai Hu said, "Little Highness, please look towards the mountaintop!"
Upon hearing General Bai Hu’s words, Lin Fan immediately looked toward the mountaintop!
In the central position, the embedded large jade stone was emitting beams of light, exceedingly bright, illuminating the entire cave like the radiant sun!
General Bai Hu explained: "This jade stone came from outside Earth, it was obtained by Sun and Moon Daoist, who discovered it could allow people to escape Earth’s gravity and float!"
"Thus, when building this Celestial Palace, Sun and Moon Daoist embedded this jade stone on the mountaintop, and cut a piece for the bath, which is also the piece that Little Highness just dripped blood onto!"
"The two jade stones correspond with each other. According to Sun and Moon Daoist, they can generate a resonance, allowing this place to lose gravity entirely and float up, enabling the entire Celestial Palace and everything inside to float!"
General Bai Hu carefully explained to Lin Fan!
"What if the bath stone breaks?" Lin Fan asked.
"If one of the bath stones breaks, the jade stone on the mountaintop will lose its resonance and shatter, causing the cave to gradually lose gravity, leading to the Celestial Palace sinking!" General Qilin said.
"I see!"
Lin Fan nodded silently!
He didn’t expect that the critical reason for the Celestial Palace’s ability to float was related to this meteorite that came from outer space!
After some contemplation, Lin Fan continued to ask: "By the way, seniors, the parchment scroll left by the Supreme Ancestor mentions a hidden secret that can make one the strongest being here. What exactly is it?"
"Secret to becoming the strongest?"
General Bai Hu and General Qilin exchanged glances, both furrowing their brows!
"There is no secret to becoming the strongest here. But back then, Sun and Moon Daoist deduced a divination and left two scrolls!" General Bai Hu said.
"Please, take me to see them!" Lin Fan cupped his hands.
"Please, Little Highness, follow me!"
General Bai Hu made a gesture of invitation, and then led Lin Fan to the high platform behind the Celestial Palace!
Behind there, stood a cylindrical column of moderate height, on which two scrolls were placed!
These scrolls weren’t locked with bamboo slips, and Lin Fan couldn’t discern what they were made of, appearing very crystal clear, resembling jade stone!
However, beneath the positions where the two jade stones were placed, two characters were respectively carved: Yin, Yang!
"Yin and Yang? What does this mean?" Lin Fan asked, puzzled.
"When Sun and Moon Daoist left two scrolls, he didn’t elaborate, only saying if descendants come, they must choose one!" General Bai Hu explained!
"Yang always represents light, while Yin undoubtedly represents darkness; naturally, I should choose Yang!"
Having made up his mind, Lin Fan hurriedly reached out to grab the scroll!
"Little Highness, please wait!" General Bai Hu suddenly spoke up.
"What’s wrong?" Lin Fan asked curiously.
"There is a seal on the column, Little Highness cannot take the scrolls!" General Bai Hu said.
Lin Fan furrowed his brows and asked: "Then what should be done?"
"Little Highness needs to drip blood onto the circular platform to break the seal, then the scroll above can be obtained!" General Bai Hu said.
