Cover the sky - Chapter 8

Chapter 8 Ancient Starry Sky Road

The crowd fell on the five-color altar, knocking over a pile of ancient books carved from jade and stone slabs. With a loud crash, the altar was in a mess. The

ancient bronze coffin was lying beside it. There were many patina rust on it, but it still couldn’t cover up the blurred bronze carvings, which seemed to be ancient gods, and they all had tear marks. They

were so close that they could even reach out and touch it, which made everyone feel fearful and their backs were cold.

This five-color altar, which has gone through endless years, was built by ancient ancestors for offering sacrifices to the sky. Could it be that those ancient emperors could really summon something?

At this moment, everyone suddenly felt a desolate and long-lasting breath flowing, which made people excited. At this moment

, nine dragon corpses and bronze coffins were lying in front of them. Could it be that they were really led by the five-color altar?

According to legend, long before the Qin Emperor and Han Wudi, the ancient Three Sovereigns, Five Emperors and Seventy-two Kings had held Fengshan ceremonies here. What did they receive?

The five-color light shone, and the jade blocks and stone slabs displayed on the five-color altar suddenly became crystal clear, and the ancient characters engraved on them all shone brightly, and the entire super-large altar radiated a soft light.

“Crack, crack”

the sound of shattering came out, and the piles of jade blocks and stone slabs suddenly cracked, and then burst out a stream of light, and the ancient characters engraved on them seemed to have life, all rushed out and floated in the void.

“Chichichi”

More ancient characters shone with light and floated in the air, and then those jade blocks and stone slabs were actually wiped out in a breeze, and all the ancient characters engraved on the jade blocks and stone slabs were freed from their restraints.

Above the bronze ancient coffin and around the huge pit, there were thousands of ancient characters shining, as if they were completely cast from molten iron, with a metallic luster and texture. The sound of

“crackling”

was heard again, and the ancient characters on the small five-colored earth altars nearby also shone out and appeared in the air.

The bronze coffin seemed to be surrounded by stars swaying in brilliance, which was particularly mysterious under the bloody sunset.

There were other people on the top of the Jade Emperor Peak who did not escape down the mountain during the chaos not long ago, but now they saw Ye Fan and others falling into the giant pit, and saw such a strange scene, all of them were panicked and rushed down the mountain.

In the panic, someone fell down, and cries of pain and help continued to sound.

At the same time, the ancient characters shining in the air gathered together and gradually formed a huge Bagua, and a mysterious force vibrated out.

This is a shocking picture. Those ancient characters and symbols have incredible power. After condensing together, they manifested into a huge Bagua diagram, which shrouded the bronze coffin and the nine dragon corpses. It has the condensation and texture of metal, as if it was cast by a hundred refining gold.

“I want to leave here!” Someone cried under the giant pit.

“My body can’t move…” Everyone was unable to move, and they were terrified, but they couldn’t change anything.

“That is…”

At this moment, a Tai Chi diagram appeared in the center of the Bagua diagram in the air, with two yin and yang fish embracing each other.

Even in this technological age, the profound meaning of the ancient Tai Chi Bagua diagram has not been cracked. Someone once used astronomical parameters to calculate the orbital velocity of the star based on the correspondence between the positions of the stars and the Bagua, and proved that the orbital velocity of the star can be calculated. The founder of modern computer binary was also deeply inspired by the Tai Chi Bagua diagram and succeeded in one fell swoop.

The ancient Tai Chi Bagua diagram is still a fascinating mystery to modern people. How was it created, what are its functions, and what is the purpose of creating it? So far, there are only legends and inaccurate conjectures, but no solid evidence.

At this moment, Ye Fan and others witnessed an unknown and important role of the Tai Chi Bagua diagram, which is actually related to time and space.

Around the huge Taiji Bagua diagram, the space was distorted and the light was hazy. The Bagua symbols corresponding to Qian, Kun, Xun, Dui, Gen, Zhen, Li, and Kan shone one after another, like a set of mysterious and ancient codes shining.

The two yin and yang fish in the Taiji diagram were like two strange doors, constantly trembling, slowly opening a gap, as if connected to the distant and unknown starry sky.

The light continued to shine, and the eight symbols of the Bagua flickered. Finally, after changing many times in a complicated sequence, they finally all lit up at the same time, emitting dazzling light. With a dull vibration of

“boom”

, the two yin and yang fish in the center of the Taiji Bagua diagram slowly opened. During this process, there were stars shining from time to time, and even an ancient starry road was seen.

In the end, the yin and yang fish really opened completely like a door, revealing a mysterious and huge passage, and no one knew where it led to. It was dark inside.

At the same time, on the top of Mount Tai, nine huge dragon corpses actually trembled, and at this time the copper coffin also made a loud “clang” and shook violently.

Ye Fan and others were close to the bronze coffin. Many people were shocked and screamed, and many female students cried.

“What should we do?”

“Help…”

In this situation, everyone felt helpless, and many female students cried loudly.

At the same time, some strong-willed people were in doubt and looked at the huge bronze ancient coffin. The coffin lid actually deviated from its position during the shaking, and a large crack appeared in the ancient coffin. A strange atmosphere filled the air.

“Clang”

the bronze coffin shook again, and the coffin lid almost fell off. An inexplicable invisible force pulled at everyone. In the next moment, everyone felt dizzy, and then their eyes went black, and everyone entered the bronze coffin.

“Ah…”

“Help!”

Some people almost collapsed and cried in fear.

“Bang”

the nine huge dragon corpses hanging on the cliff were shaking. At the same time, the lid of the bronze ancient coffin made a loud noise, and then completely reset and closed.

Then, nine dragon corpses as big as mountains rose into the sky. Although they still did not show any life, they pulled the huge bronze coffin and slowly sank into the dark and mysterious passage constructed by the Taiji Bagua diagram.

“Boom!”

The whole Taishan Mountain shook violently, as if the sky was about to collapse. The five-colored divine light on the top of the Jade Emperor’s Peak penetrated the heaven and earth.

Then, at the moment when the bloody sunset disappeared, the top of Taishan Mountain also dimmed in an instant. The huge Taiji Bagua diagram in the sky completely closed and slowly disappeared.

The nine dragons pulled the coffin and disappeared!

All the jade blocks and stone slabs on the five-colored altar were reduced to ashes. A breeze blew and the ashes were scattered by the wind.

Everything that happened under this bloody sunset was destined to cause a great uproar and spread to every corner of the world. Taishan Mountain would inevitably become the focus of world attention, but all of this had nothing to do with Ye Fan and others.

The inside of the ancient bronze coffin was pitch black, and filled with an icy chill. Some of the female students were on the verge of collapse, their hearts filled with helplessness and fear, but they did not dare to cry out loud. They all suppressed their emotions and voices, and sobbed quietly.

“What should we do? Who can save us?”

“Are we really inside the bronze coffin now?”

“Why is this happening? Is there any way to get out?”

People kept dialing with their mobile phones, but they couldn’t get through at all. They couldn’t contact the outside world, which made people even more frightened.

“Don’t panic, although we can’t get in touch with the outside world for the time being, this shocking incident happened on Mount Tai, and it will definitely be reported to the outside world as soon as possible. I believe the rescuers will arrive soon.” Zhou Yi seemed very calm, and his words made everyone’s fearful mood relax a little. ”

Zhou Yi is right, don’t panic, we must stay calm, and I believe everything will be safe.” Wang Ziwen’s voice was also very calm, and she spoke to stabilize the emotions of everyone present.

“Yes, don’t panic, things have already happened, and it’s useless for us to be afraid. The important thing is to find a way to escape.” Although Lin Jia is a woman, she is very calm at this moment and is not panicked.

Ye Fan didn’t say anything and sat there quietly. The dark and mysterious passage constructed by the Tai Chi Bagua diagram appeared in front of him from time to time. At this moment, are we still on the top of the Jade Emperor? He had a bad association in his mind.

With the help of the weak light of the mobile phone, he could see many panicked faces. Many people were pale, and some were even trembling.

Li Xiaoman was not far away, sitting there with her knees hugged. Although her face was a little pale, she was very calm. Next to her was the American youth named Cade, and the two kept talking in English in a low voice.

Liu Yunzhi clenched his hands so tightly that his knuckles turned white. He was obviously very nervous, but he did not show panic.

In fact, everyone present was very uneasy, after all, they were in a closed bronze coffin.

“Has everyone fallen into the bronze coffin? Let’s confirm the number of people present.”

“One, two, three… twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty!” When the 30th person was counted, the student in charge of counting the number of people suddenly trembled and said, “How can there be… the 30th person?!” There were

33 students in the class. At the beginning of the party, three of them were unable to attend because they were studying abroad, and another five were unable to arrive due to some special reasons.

When they came to Mount Tai this time, three of the overseas students had returned, but the other five students still failed to arrive. A total of 28 people arrived at Mount Tai. If Li Xiaoman’s American classmate Cade is included, there should be 29 people.

How could there be 30 people at this moment? In this cold and dark ancient coffin, at this moment, everyone felt creepy and a chill ran down their spines.
