A bed that traverses countless worlds

"What is this..." Lin Yu murmured to himself, his gaze fixed on the stone tablets that had suddenly appeared.

The stone tablets, varying in height and arranged in a staggered manner, resembled ancient soldiers guarding some secret.

The surface of the stele is mottled and covered with strange characters, which look like some kind of ancient symbols or ghost drawings, making people dizzy.

The surrounding air suddenly turned cold, and a chilling aura emanated from the depths of the stele forest, as if warning Lin Yu: High energy ahead, non-combat personnel evacuate immediately!

Lin Yu rubbed his arms and thought to himself, "Goodness, trying to create a tense atmosphere, huh? Who are you trying to scare!" He knew that this forest of steles must be related to the core power source of the ruins, and deciphering these characters might be the key to obtaining power.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Yu controlled his "luxury mobile base"—that magical bed—and slowly drove it into the Stele Forest.

The closer one gets to the stone tablet, the stronger the ancient and mysterious aura becomes. Strange light flows faintly across the inscription, as if it might come to life at any moment.

"This writing... is it Martian script?" Lin Yu stared wide-eyed, trying hard to decipher the symbols on the inscription.

However, these characters were far too ancient, more abstract than oracle bone script, and more illegible than tadpole script. He looked at them for a long time but couldn't recognize a single character.

Just when he was at his wit's end, a semi-transparent figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

The figure was elusive, shimmering with a ghostly blue light, much like the legendary spirit of the stele forest.

"Young man, are you troubled by these words?" The elf's voice was ethereal and melodious, with a hint of seductive charm.

Lin Yu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that this elf had come to offer guidance?

"Senior, do you know the meaning of these characters?"

The elf smiled slightly: "I know a little." It pointed to one of the stone tablets and said, "This records an ancient cultivation method that can grant you great power."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu immediately perked up and began to carefully examine the stone tablet.

However, what the elf said next left him completely dumbfounded.

"However..." the elf drawled, "this method requires specific conditions to cultivate, and if you're not careful, you'll suffer a qi deviation and explode, dying instantly!"

Exploded to death?

Lin Yu's lips twitched. This sounded like a trap.

Then the elf explained the inscriptions on several other stone tablets to him, but each time he explained them in a vague and ambiguous way, which only made him more confused.

Lin Yu's forehead began to bead with cold sweat, and his anxiety grew.

Is this spirit of the Stele Forest here to help or to cause trouble?

He felt like he had fallen into a huge maze, unable to find the exit or see the direction.

“No…” Lin Yu suddenly stopped, his gaze fixed on the surrounding stone tablets. “The way these stone tablets are arranged…”

Lin Yu's gaze swept across each stone tablet like a scanner, trying to find clues in their arrangement.

"Wait..." He suddenly stopped, his gaze fixed on several oddly shaped stone tablets. "These stone tablets, why do they look a bit like... the Big Dipper?"

He manipulated the bed, moving it slowly to observe the layout of the stone tablet from different angles.

Sure enough, the arrangement of these stone tablets is strikingly similar to the shape of the Big Dipper!

"Could it be..." A thought flashed through Lin Yu's mind, "that the arrangement of these stone tablets is the key to deciphering the inscriptions?"

He began to re-examine the inscriptions on each stone tablet in the order of the Big Dipper.

Sure enough, when arranged in the correct order, the originally chaotic symbols began to show a certain pattern!

There seems to be a subtle connection between some of the words, like fragments that are slowly being pieced together to form a complete picture.

"It's done!" Lin Yu clenched his fist excitedly. He felt that he was one step closer to the truth, just like playing a puzzle game and finally finding the key clue.

Seeing that Lin Yu seemed to have made a discovery, the spirit of the stele forest coughed lightly and said casually, "Young man, your interpretation is probably misguided. The real secret lies not in the order of these steles, but in the meaning of the inscriptions themselves..."

The elf began to launch into a long, rambling discourse of dubious theories, attempting to mislead Lin Yu.

As Lin Yu listened to the elf's words, his heart began to waver.

Did I really misunderstand?

He fell into deep self-doubt.

"No, that's not right!" Lin Yu shook his head violently, banishing those distracting thoughts from his mind.

He believed in his judgment: the layout of the Stele Forest was definitely not a coincidence!

He took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and began to study the text again.

"Young man, why are you so stubborn?" the elf's voice said with a hint of mockery. "If you continue like this, you will only waste your time and end up with nothing."

Lin Yu ignored the elf's provocation and focused all his attention on the stone tablet, as if everything around him did not exist.

Time passed second by second, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Lin Yu's forehead, but he showed no sign of giving up.

Finally, he found it!

He discovered a peculiar symbol that appeared repeatedly on different stone tablets, and its position each time was very regular.

He extracted these symbols individually and arranged them in a specific order, which surprisingly formed a complete text!

"It's done!" Lin Yu shouted excitedly, but at that moment, the atmosphere in the Stele Forest suddenly changed...

"Are you sure you've really solved it?" The elf's voice was as cold as if it came from hell...

The voice of the Forest Spirit was as cold as the winter wind, sending chills down Lin Yu's spine.

"Young man, are you sure you're not on the wrong set? This isn't a game of matching dots!" Its elusive form flickered with a faint blue light, resembling a shoddy stage lighting technician.

"Connect the dots? You seem to have some misunderstanding about connect the dots." Lin Yu curled his lip, completely unaffected by the elf's words.

His gaze was fixed on the intricate carvings on the stone tablet, which he had previously overlooked, but now it seemed that they were the real key!

"Who says the inscription is the main point? I'm going to see what tricks these fancy patterns can come up with!"

Lin Yu controlled his "luxury mobile base," moving slowly through the forest of steles, like an expert conducting an archaeological excavation, carefully observing the patterns on each stele.

These patterns are not simple decorations, but are composed of various lines, geometric shapes and abstract symbols, full of mystery.

"Huh? This pattern looks familiar?" Lin Yu stared at the pattern on one of the stone tablets, his brows furrowed.

The pattern resembled a swirling vortex or a coiled dragon, giving him a sense of déjà vu.

Suddenly, an idea struck him!

"Wait! Isn't this... isn't this the 'Chaos Rune' from the game I played before?!" Lin Yu was so excited he almost jumped out of bed.

He spent three whole months playing that game, becoming intimately familiar with all the runes, items, and skills in it.

"Chaos runes? What the hell are those?" The Forest Spirit looked completely bewildered, clearly having never heard of the term before.

Lin Yu ignored the elf's question and began to compare the patterns on the stone tablet with the runes in the game.

Sure enough, these patterns bear a striking resemblance to the runes in the game!

Following the rules of the game, he combined different patterns and actually managed to decipher the meaning of some of the text!

"It's done!" Lin Yu's eyes shone like searchlights. He felt as if he had opened the door to a new world, and a powerful force surged into his body.

The spirit of the stele forest stared in disbelief at all this. It never imagined that this seemingly ordinary young man would use such an unbelievable method to crack the secrets of the stele forest!

"This...this is impossible!" The Forest Spirit's voice trembled, as if its worldview was about to collapse.

Ignoring the elf's shock, Lin Yu continued to decipher the inscription, his abilities constantly improving as if opening a door to success.

However, the mysteries of the Stele Forest were far more complex than he had imagined. He had only deciphered a small part of it, and many more secrets remained hidden in the unsolved texts and patterns.

"It's not over yet..." Lin Yu took a deep breath and maneuvered the bed, slowly moving it deeper into the forest of steles. A huge bronze door appeared before him...

How do I open this door?
