407 Chapter 407

After coming to this world, it had been a long time since he had seen Chinese letters.

This world used a language that was similar to English, but it had a different alphabet system. The only reason Lin Fan was able to understand the language of this world was because he had been imbued with the memories of the other Lin Fan.

So the language that Lin Fan had been using on a daily basis until now was actually the common language here in this universe that he transmigrated to. There were still things like local dialects, but with how humanity was related, all of those local dialects were a branch of the main common language.

It wasn't like earth where there were different languages for each country.

But the strange thing now was why were there Chinese letters on this podium?

Could it be that these ruins were left behind by another transmigrator that came before him or was it something else?

Was it related to that girl he kept seeing who told him that she would have answers for him in the future?

Before Lin Fan did anything else, he called out to Mo Ze Chen who was still climbing all over the glowing tree. After calling him over, he pointed at the line that was written in Chinese and asked Mo Ze Chen, "Do you know what this says?"

Mo Ze Chen looked at where Lin Fan was pointing at the podium before slightly knitting his brows. After a moment of hesitation, he came closer to the podium to carefully look over it.

At first Lin Fan felt this was a good sign since it seemed like Mo Ze Chen was seriously looking over it, but Mo Ze Chen's next words made Lin Fan stunned.

"Brother Lin, what do you mean by that? I don't see anything there at all."

Lin Fan was taken aback when he heard this, but he quickly went back to the podium and pointed at the line written in Chinese underneath the main verses before saying, "Right there, don't you see what's written right there?"

Mo Ze Chen looked again at where Lin Fan was pointing, but after a bit, he couldn't help looking at Lin Fan with a worried look as he said, "Brother Lin, are you alright? Are you sick or is there something wrong with you?"

The way Mo Ze Chen looked at Lin Fan made it clear that he thought Lin Fan was crazy, but that was normal when people started asking about things that others couldn't see. However, Lin Fan was certain that he could see these words because it was clear in his eyes.

Lin Fan ignored Mo Ze Chen and turned back to the podium, looking at those words in Chinese.

The words written were very simple, they just said "Press here".

Lin Fan wasn't sure what would happen, but since it was a special message that was written in Chinese that only he could read, he was willing to take the risk that it was something special.

So Lin Fan raised his hand up to the podium and pressed right on the letters.

The moment his finger touched that line, there was a sudden tremble around them as the room began to shake.

Mo Ze Chen started to panic the moment the room began to shake as he said, "Brother Lin, what's happening?"

But Lin Fan didn't have time to care about him because he was focused on the specific changes of the room.

As the room continued to shake, there was the sound of rock grinding on rock as a piece of the wall suddenly slid to the side. Once it finished sliding to the side, it revealed a passage with a set of stairs going down.

Once the passage was revealed, the shaking stopped and the room turned silent once again.

Mo Ze Chen turned to look in the direction of the door that was just revealed and he was shocked when he saw the stairs leading down. He quickly turned to Lin Fan and asked, "Brother Lin, what did you just do?"

Lin Fan didn't bother explaining to him since he felt it was a waste of time, rather Lin Fan came to the stairs and sent down his spiritual sense along with Brainy.

After breaking through to the Fragmented Soul Realm, Lin Fan's spiritual sense was quite powerful, being able to spread over several kilometers. However, even with that being the case, he couldn't find the end of these stairs.

Brainy had a stronger spiritual sense than Lin Fan since it specialized in cultivating its spiritual sense, but it also couldn't find the bottom of these stairs.

Lin Fan knitted his brows in thought for a bit, but he still chose to go down the stairs in the end.

Mo Ze Chen saw that Lin Fan was heading down and he didn't hesitate to follow him since he had already put his chips down in Lin Fan's corner. Wherever Lin Fan went, that was where he went.

Not to mention that if he did betray Lin Fan, he would be blown to pieces.

Sometimes, not dying was the best motivator.

As they continued down these stairs, what Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen didn't know was what kind of commotion they had caused for the rest of the people in the ruins.

…

The shaking of the ruins wasn't just in the lower part of the ruins where Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen was, rather the shaking of the ruins had occurred throughout these entire ruins, which meant that everyone had felt it.

Many of the examinees were confused as to what had happened and thought that perhaps it was caused by the True Soul Realm beast that was lurking in these ruins. A few of the smarter people knew better than this and they could guess what it really was.

For something that could affect the entire ruins, it must be someone who had found some form of fortuitous encounter and it definitely wasn't small. If they were able to take this from whoever had found it, it definitely would be good for them.

There were many of the examinees who had greedy looks in their eyes as they began making their way deeper into the ruins.

Among them were seeded candidates who had pulled in all the weaker examinees that they had found along the way. They drew them in with sweet words, saying that they could all work together, but they only drew them in for one thing…

They would be bait used to clear the traps that were in front of them.

The shaking of the ruins wasn't just strong enough that everyone in the ruins felt them, they were so strong that even the people above could feel the shaking through the ground.

When this shaking appeared, Shi Yan who had been guarding the entrance immediately knitted his brows.

He had never found anything like this when he had been exploring these ruins, but that was also because he kept being driven off by that Nascent Soul Realm beast.

Now these ruins had suddenly started to shake and they were so intense that they had reached the surface. Could it be that someone had gotten past that Nascent Soul Realm beast and had gotten to the true depths of the ruins?

Shi Yan had a slightly dark look in his eyes as he pondered this.

After thinking for a bit, he lifted his wrist with the watch on it and pressed a few buttons before there was a connection tone. Once he was connected, Shi Yan said a few whispered words before suddenly hanging up again.

He had already reported it, so now all he could do was wait.

As Shi Yan was wondering who had caused this change in the ruins, he couldn't help thinking of Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen. Those two were the most special candidates out of the bunch, so they were the greatest suspects in this case.

Deep in the ruins, there was another creature that was stirred by the shaking of these ruins. It was the Nascent Soul Realm beast.

As a Nascent Soul Realm beast, naturally it had developed its intelligence and it could tell just what this shaking of these ruins meant.

Could it be that someone had been able to open the vestige of its master?

But its master had told it that unless it was the destined person, they wouldn't be able to open these ruins. So far, it hadn't been able to find anyone special among all the people that had come in, could it be that it had missed something?

The beast suddenly kneeled down and spat out something round onto the ground.

This was a ball that was completely made of glass and see through. Normally this ball of glass would be completely empty, but at this moment, there was something that was inside of it.

The Nascent Soul Realm beast leaned in more to get a closer look and when it saw what was inside the glass ball, its eyes couldn't help popping out.

There was a green wisp of energy that was inside of the glass ball.

This was the signal that its master had told it would appear in the glass ball if the destined person had appeared and now it had actually appeared.

The Nascent Soul Realm beast didn't waste any more time here as it quickly swallowed the ball before heading down into the depths of the ruins.

The destined person was already here, it couldn't waste any more time with all the trash that had charged in.

But before it left, it didn't forget to give another loud roar.

This time, the roar was different since it wasn't just a threatening roar.

Instead, it was a gathering roar that had invoked a wave of beasts in these ruins, hunting down the intruders.
