The Legend of the Young Swordsman: A Prequel - A Phantom Melody Embarks on a Journey Through the Mar

"In that case, I'll add another trick!"

After nodding, Yueyao uttered this simple sentence, then raised her hand into a palm. A palm landed on the damaged stone tablet, and with that palm strike…

The stone tablet was broken into even more fragments.

The ground was broken and there was no trace of any so-called stone tablet.

Just as Yueyao finished her attack and was about to say something to Helian Yunshen, she saw him groping for something on the stone wall beside her.

dong dong dong! !

He raised his hand and kept tapping the stone wall.

He was tapping on the stone wall while pressing his ear against it, listening to something.

Seeing Helian Yun Shen like this, Yue Yao wisely shut her mouth and waited quietly. The entire bottom was eerily silent.

The sound of tapping on the stone wall echoed continuously at the bottom.

Finally, after dozens of taps, Helian Yun Shen discovered the problem and lifted his ear off the stone wall.

A smile appeared on his lips.

"Young Master Helian, have you made some new discovery?"

Seeing that Helian Yun Shen had stopped his constant knocking and banging, Yue Yao quickly stepped forward and questioned him. Helian Yun Shen turned to look at her and said...

"Although it was just a casual attempt, I didn't expect that such a trial would actually lead me to discover something. There is a large cavity behind this stone wall, which should be a secret chamber built by the ancients."

However, the location of the mechanism in the secret room remains unclear.

"Young Master Helian is truly lucky!"

After listening to Yueyao, she was able to say such words, which contained her sincere blessings and happiness for Helian Yunshen, as well as her envy for Helian Yunshen's good luck and good opportunities.

After congratulating them,

Looking at the stone wall, Yueyao thought of Helian Yunshen's words and made a suggestion.

"In that case, let's just break down the door and go in."

“I’ve heard from others that forcibly breaking into this kind of mechanism will trigger a self-destruct mechanism inside. At that point, the entire secret chamber will collapse, and everything will be buried.”

"It's certainly possible, but we can't find the location of the agency. This is currently the best solution."

"Let me look again."

Instead of forcibly breaking down the stone door to the secret chamber, Helian Yun Shen decided to continue searching to see if he could find the mechanism.

Seeing this, Yueyao stopped making suggestions.

…………

Helian Yun Shen searched around for an unknown amount of time, but after a long search, he still found nothing and could only sigh helplessly.

Looking at the stone door of the secret chamber, he picked up his jade flute and played the Water Moon Mirror Image, and Lei Mengsha's image appeared. He then unleashed the Martial Arts Unparalleled Fist, attacking the stone door.

If a punch lands and the body doesn't budge, then it's because of that punch.

In a continuous cycle,

Helian Yun Shen discovered that breaking through this stone gate would consume his true energy, which was more difficult than fighting with others. Fortunately, his efforts paid off, and the stone gate withstood the final blow of the Wufang Fist.

Finally, unable to hold on any longer, countless cracks appeared on the stone gate, growing larger and larger until the entire stone gate shattered.

The moment the stone gate shattered,

Dust and smoke billowed up, and it was impossible to know whether there was any damage inside. We waited anxiously for the dust to settle.

After the dust settled,

The situation inside the secret room was finally revealed to the two of them, and their hearts, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.

The secret room was undamaged.

The two glanced at each other and then stepped into the secret room at the same time.

Upon entering, I was quite disappointed by the state of the secret chamber; the scene I had imagined was nowhere to be found. The so-called secret chamber contained nothing but a few ancient futons and stone benches.

"This must be where our ancestors secluded themselves for cultivation."

Yueyao surveyed the entire secret chamber, and thinking of her father in seclusion, she made this guess. Helian Yunshen, upon hearing the words "seclusion for cultivation," felt even more disappointed.

After wasting so much time and energy, all we found was a place where an ancestor secluded himself. What a waste of time!

“Young Master Helian, this place isn’t entirely useless. Look at the stone wall over there.”

Seeing Helian Yun Shen's dejected appearance, Yue Yao couldn't help but feel dejected as well. Her dejection didn't last long before she noticed some writing on a stone wall in the secret chamber.

This discovery was promptly communicated to Helian Yunshen.

Upon hearing Yueyao's words, Helian Yun Shen quickened his pace and arrived at the place Yueyao had mentioned, looking at the characters on the stone wall that were already covered with moss.

Reach out and remove the moss covering the text.

Over time, the text has lost its original clarity. It is somewhat blurred but still legible, and even clearer than the text on the outer stone tablet.

"Three Styles of Buddha's Palm? How could a martial art have such a carelessly chosen name?"

Looking at the first four characters, Helian Yun Shen felt that the name of this martial art was rather hastily chosen, and it didn't sound as good as the names he had chosen for his own martial arts.

"Young Master Helian, the strength of martial arts is not determined by its name. The Lei family's Wufang Fist may sound ordinary, but it is indeed one of the top fist techniques in the martial arts world."

Perhaps the martial art left by our ancestors is also very powerful.

When Yueyao heard Helian Yun Shen complaining about the name of the martial arts technique, she was both speechless and amused by his behavior.

He controlled his facial expressions well and didn't laugh out loud.

Instead, he reminded Helian Yun Shen in very ordinary and gentle words.

Reminded, Helian Yun Shen scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.

"I just said it offhand, it was just a casual remark."

After saying all that, he calmed down and looked at the martial art called "Three Styles of Buddha Palm" on the stone wall.

"Ignorance is the true nature of Buddhahood, and the illusory body is the Dharmakaya? Is it necessary to master Buddhist teachings to practice this palm technique?"

Looking at the very first sentence, Helian Yun frowned and muttered to himself. After muttering to himself, he continued reading. As he read on, his furrowed brow relaxed.

"I never imagined that our ancestors also loved to tease people. Even the martial arts carved on the stone wall were teased and played around with."

"Our ancestors were also human beings, and of course they had emotions like joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. It's perfectly normal for them to tease people."

Young Master Helian, you should continue watching!

But I'm quite curious how you recognize these older scripts?

The writing carved on this stone wall is clearly not the same as the writing on the outside; the writing on this one looks much older.

While replying to Helian Yun Shen, Yue Yao glanced at him and looked at the text that she couldn't quite understand, so she couldn't help but ask Helian Yun Shen for help.

Hearing the question, Helian Yunshen explained.

"I've read some ancient books before, so I know a little more about them. I can make some deductions."
