After the decision was made, Fang Zishu and Qi Sanpo followed the passageway to the underground palace and returned to the square.

After entering the underground palace, Professor Xu, who had been studying the statues of the fierce beasts in the square, also found something new.

It was only after Professor Xu's explanation did the book discover that the statues on the plaza had been arranged in a 'righteous.'

Of course, this' right 'shape was just a relative term.

At first glance, the four statues on the left side were arranged in the same way as Trinity. As for the statues on the right side, they were arranged in one or three different ways.

In other words, if the entire plaza was like a piece of white paper that could be folded, then along the center (entrance to the underground palace), there would be eight statues on the left and right sides, both of which could be stacked together.

When Fang Zishu and Qi Sanpang first arrived at the square, they were shocked by the different set of statues, so they didn't pay much attention to their arrangement.

Then, Da Pang and Fatty Dun found a passage in the middle of the plaza, an entrance to the underground palace's tomb. Da Pang and Fatty Dun, then, found a passage in the middle of the plaza, an entrance to the underground palace's tomb.

Now that he thought about it, the book found that the eight statues in the square seemed to be in disarray, but in fact, they stood there in accordance with the rules.

If he remembered correctly, 'Book of Luoluo', book 17, had once recorded a rare grand formation. This grand formation was known as the 'Nine Elephants Seal the Heavens', and its function was to utilize the four ferocious beasts and the four divine beasts to counter each other, allowing the eight trigram diagram to once again evolve.

As the saying goes, the Four Appearances gave birth to the Four Appearances gave birth to the Eight Trigrams, and above the Eight Trigrams were endless.

An infinite number represented an infinite number of possibilities.

If he didn't guess wrongly, these eight statues that had different shapes ought to have an extremely close relationship with the Pixiu statue at the entrance of the underground palace.

As for the distribution of the gossip, there were eight statues on the plaza, and each statue's orientation was different. On the left side were statues of the four great ferocious beasts, occupying four of the eight 'Life', 'Death', 'Wound', and 'Du' doors. The four great divine beasts on the right occupied four gates, 'Shocked', 'Hugh', 'Scene', and 'Open' respectively.

Among the four gates on the left side, the Gate of Death and the Gate of Injury were considered the Gate of Healing, while the Gate of Du was called the Central Plane Sect and the Gate of Life was the Gate of Jimen. The four doors of the Divine Beast on the right were similar to the ones on the left, which also proved that the eight statues on the field were arranged according to the methods of the 'Gate of Wonder', 'Zhongping Gate', and 'Life Gate'.

However, Fang Zishu found it strange that the four ferocious beasts and the four divine beasts represented the eight death gates that already occupied the death gates of the ferocious beasts. Then, why was the location of the 'Pixiu' statue in the passageway of the underground palace also the death gates of the eight?

If that was the case, wouldn't it mean that the gate of death had appeared among the statues of the Nine Supremes?

What did the overlapping arrangement of the door of death mean?

Was it the tomb lord's intention or …

Although he had read a lot of books, Fang Zi was also confused by the strange arrangement in front of him. Just then, Professor Xu, who was observing the statue on the square, suddenly exclaimed, "This …" Could it be that this is the so-called 'Nine Elephants Heaven Sealing Diagram' in Book of Luo? "

Da Shang asked with some confusion, "Professor, what is the 'Nine Elephants Heaven Sealing Diagram'?"

Professor Xu pushed his glasses against the bridge of his nose and explained, "The eight trigram diagram is divided into innate gossip and acquired gossip. I've told you this before, do you guys still remember?"

Seeing Da Ceng and Fatty Dun nod, Professor Xu then said, "Innate gossip is a product of the deduction of all living things through the River Diagram of Suiren borrowed from the Human Emperor Fuxi. Innate gossip involves many things, including human nature, geography, and even geomorphology."

Before Professor Xu could finish his sentence, Little Hui said excitedly, "I know. Innate gossip focuses on astronomical geography, and acquired gossip is a product deduced by King Zhou Wu from Fuxi's Innate gossip, and through the combination of two parts of the divination. The structure of the tomb of the three parts of the ruins that were unearthed from 'Donshuo' was built using the 'Thirty-two Diagram' as a blueprint."

Professor Xu nodded and said, "What Xiao Hui said this time is right. The eight trigram diagrams of the Upper and Pre-Sky Realm were both constructed using Suiren's River Diagram as a blueprint, but what you don't know is that there was a new type of formation diagram, a new type of formation diagram evolved from the eight trigram diagram."

"A new type of Diagram Array?" Xiao Hui frowned.

"Professor, this is the 'Nine Elephants Heaven Sealing Diagram' that you spoke of, right?"

"Can this' Nine Elephants Heaven Sealing Diagram 'be even more powerful than Fuxi's innate Eight Trigrams Diagram?" Da Gang was a little unconvinced. As far as he was concerned, Fuxi was the legendary Human Emperor. The formation map that he had passed down, how could it be inferior to the later generation?

Professor Xu smiled, then said, "It's not because this' Nine Elephants Heaven Sealing Diagram 'is inferior to the Human Emperor Fuxi's Innate Eight Trigrams Diagram, but because of the passage of time."

"Time?" Little Hui blinked.

Professor Xu patted Xiao Hui's head and explained with a smile.

It was only when Xu Que had finished talking that Xiao Hui finally understood what he meant by 'the discussion on time'.

Actually, this question seemed complicated, but it was actually very simple. Whether it was Fuxi's Innate Gossip or Duke Wen's Gossip, the time that they created and circulated was a product of thousands of years ago.

In such a long period of time, even the changes of dynasties had occurred countless times, let alone a mere array formation. Therefore, in a situation where the inborn gossip and the acquired gossip were incomplete, the advantage of the 'Nine Elephants Heaven Sealing Diagram' recorded in the 'Book of Luoshen' was naturally highlighted.

"Professor Xu, the formation on the plaza might not be the 'Nine Elephants Heaven Sealing Diagram', right?"

Earlier on, while Professor Xu was explaining the Nine Elephants Heaven Sealing Diagram to Da Ceng and the others, Fang Zishu had been quietly listening from the side. Although he was surprised that an archaeologist like Professor Xu could understand so many secrets, he did not agree with what Professor Xu had said.

Initially, when Fang Zhoushu discovered the strange arrangement of the eight statues in the plaza, he thought of the 'Nine Elephants Heaven Sealing Diagram' that was recorded in Volume 17 of the 'Book of Luoshen'. However, after a detailed comparison, Fang Zhicheng realized that his judgement was wrong.

This was because the 'Nine Elephants Heaven Sealing Diagram' had been described in detail in the Book of Luo. As mentioned above, not only must the 'Nine Elephants Heaven Sealing Diagram' be arranged in a symmetrical manner, but the overlapping doors must also be a three Yuan Gate.
