179 The Connection Between the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram and the Crystal Coffin
Because they couldn’t move the coffin, they couldn’t open it either, so they didn’t know if there was anyone buried in it.
Compared to an empty coffin, they were more convinced that there was definitely someone inside. Otherwise, why would they spend so much effort on it? This coffin had fallen with the meteorite, and such a huge commotion and array already showed that it was extraordinary.
What kind of expert could send his coffin into the vast universe?
This kind of ability was truly amazing, and it was probably already in the range of the top almighty.
It was a pity that they couldn’t even get close to the coffin, let alone solve the mystery inside. They could only look at Ye Xuan helplessly.
In contrast to their eager looks, Ye Xuan could touch the coffin, but he still couldn’t open it. He walked around the crystal coffin and didn’t find anything.
“How is it? Did you find anything?”
Ye Xuan shook his head. “Not yet.”
Everyone was a little disappointed, but it was also within their expectations. If Ye Xuan could see through it with one look, it would be too heaven-defying. After all, they had studied it for so long and still hadn’t found anything.
But then again, why couldn’t any of them get close, but only Ye Xuan?
The few of them looked at each other as if they had made an important decision.
“Since this crystal coffin is fated with you, you can come and check it out when you have free time. If you find anything, we can also discuss it.”
The meaning of his words was that this place would open its doors to Ye Xuan, which was also a benefit to him in disguise.
After all, they hadn’t made any progress for such a long time and hadn’t even touched the crystal coffin. Ye Xuan had just arrived, but he was already able to get close. Maybe he really could find something.
This was exactly what Ye Xuan wanted. After all, he had some secrets and it wasn’t suitable for outsiders to be present.
They weren’t worried that Ye Xuan would discover something. Even if he was powerful, he wouldn’t be powerful to this extent. Even if he really did discover something, the crystal coffin was here, and no one could move it.
It was unlikely that he would play tricks under their eyes. After all, the array and restrictions set up by the grand elders were not for show.
Soon, they knew what it meant to be slapped in the face by Ye Xuan.
After everyone had left, Ye Xuan stared at the crystal coffin with a thoughtful expression.
He wasn’t so narcissistic as to think that he was different from the rest, which was why he was allowed to get close to the crystal coffin, unlike the others who had been slapped away violently.
If there was anything special about him, it would be those things.
The first thing that came to Ye Xuan’s mind was the Penglai Immortal Stone. After all, the crystal coffin had fallen down with the meteorite, and then the secret realm had appeared. Perhaps there was some connection between the two.
Ye Xuan took out the Penglai Immortal Stone and put it on the coffin. There was no reaction from the crystal coffin, and even the Penglai Immortal Stone didn’t change.
“Did I guess wrong?”
Ye Xuan’s heart moved slightly, and an ancient scroll appeared in his hand. With the appearance of the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, a stream of light streaked across the motionless crystal coffin, reflecting the appearance of thousands of stars.
At this moment, he could feel the slight trembling of the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, as if they were responding to something.
“It’s actually related to the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram!”
Ye Xuan never thought that the crystal coffin would actually resonate with the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram. A scene flashed through his mind.
He remembered!
The day when the meteorite fell was the day he activated the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, a bright star flew over, and it was not far from him.
In this case, there was an explanation. This meteorite might really have been attracted by the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, which was why it landed nearby and didn’t resist his approach.
“One is an ancient book, and it’s an incomplete part at that. The other is an object from outer space. What’s the connection between these two?”
After figuring out the reason why he could get close, Ye Xuan fell into deep thought again. Looking at the two items in front of him, he really couldn’t connect them.
Ye Xuan tried to activate the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram. Countless illusionary stars floated in the sky, and as if attracted by something, they slowly floated toward the crystal coffin.
The planets revolved around it like a magnificent galaxy that was slowly flowing. The crystal coffin was even more eye-catching. Some people would even believe that it was a divine artifact, let alone a coffin.
The material of the crystal coffin was also something Ye Xuan had never seen before. There was no record of it even in the ancient books. It didn’t seem to be something from this world, and it was like its origin was covered with a mysterious veil.
Ye Xuan took a closer look. The shadow of the star seemed to be exuding from within. Runes were leaking out like a light that had been lost in the world.
He wanted to get a clearer look, but the crystal coffin didn’t move at all. He could only see a little bit through the cracks and nothing more.
He didn’t know if it was because it was incomplete, but although the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram resonated with the crystal coffin, there was no other phenomenon.
“Could it be that the person buried here is the previous owner of the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram!”
Although it was just a guess, Ye Xuan felt that this was very likely. Otherwise, how could he explain the phenomenon in front of him?
“Was the previous owner of the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram so powerful that he could send his coffin into the universe?”
Ye Xuan felt that it was unlikely. Perhaps he was sent there after his death?
In any case, he tried to open the crystal coffin with the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram. After all, the reaction between the two was enough to prove that they were deeply connected.
