In the Pulling Wood Hall, the patriarch and the twelve elders all looked towards a corner outside the hall.
There was a clock hanging there.
Starting from the second stage, as long as the formation was broken, the clock would automatically ring.
"The sixth stage is called Chaos, and the difficulty can be changed at will. If one is lucky, the difficulty of breaking it will be easier than the second stage. On the contrary, the difficulty is probably no less than breaking a natural formation!"
In the breeze, the clock, which was similar in shape to the wind chimes on the Wind Bell Bridge, but many times larger, was swaying. An elder looked at it for a long time and muttered to himself.
Another person said, "The ancestor of the Pulling Wood Tribe, who called himself the Talisman Master, accidentally found this place and set up the sixth stage. Then he entered the natural formation space and was gone for countless years... According to the ancestor, the sixth stage is a test of luck, but luck is elusive, and even the gods cannot detect it. I don't know if this person can pass this stage."
The two people spoke, breaking the silence. After one person finished speaking, the other person sighed and said, "We are all old, I hope this person can break the sixth stage and not disappoint us again... we can't wait!"
"I don't know if the Talisman Master is still alive, he has not returned. If the Talisman Master had not suddenly left, our Pulling Wood Tribe would definitely be able to surpass the divine temple, and not be trapped on this Pulling Wood Mountain..."
"Shut up!"
When an elder mentioned the divine temple, the patriarch frowned and shouted in a deep voice.
The elder who spoke shut up and smiled embarrassedly.
Just now, he mentioned the taboo of the Pulling Wood Tribe.
When the Pulling Wood Tribe was defeated by the divine temple, a deep enmity was formed, and it took thousands of years to resolve the enmity.
Because the Pulling Wood Tribe knew that they were no match for the divine temple. If they did not want to be exterminated, they should never mention the past.
The hall fell silent once more.
"These runes, what are they?" Yang Tian asked in his mind as he retreated.
The strange program said, "These runes remind me of something. It seems that I have eaten them before, before I awakened."
The strange program's words surprised Yang Tian, and he thought, "Could it be that this is the process of the Talisman Master creating the rune program?"
The Talisman Master was a genius. He used a special method to create a programmed lifeform made of runes. The process of creation was unknown and incomprehensible.
With the disappearance of the Rune Master, the original rune program was destroyed. Later generations of rune geniuses had also made countless attempts to create an intelligent program using runes, just like the Rune Master, but without a doubt, they had all failed.
Some people even spent their entire lives without being able to enter the door.
The Talisman Master must have thought of a special method, a method that others would never know.
There were also people who guessed that the Talisman Master was not a human from this world, but from another world.
Countless runes surged towards him, but Yang Tian did not know if these runes would harm him. He kept retreating, but soon, a rustling sound could be heard behind him.
How could he eat these runes?
After Yang Tian asked the strange program, it did not answer for a long time.
Soon, Yang Tian discovered a problem.
Countless runes surged from the cave walls, and there were no runes in the air.
When countless runes surged from behind him, Yang Tian had no choice but to fly into the air, and countless runes leaped over him along the cave walls.
Yang Tian had never heard of mental power runes. Even if there were rune arrays that could affect one's mind, they were achieved through other energies.
To prevent hidden runes from being in the air, Yang Tian used his mental power to surround himself and the Little Blue Dragon.
Whether it was the runes that came from the front or the back, they seemed to be densely packed, but each rune was separated by a certain distance, unlike crawling insects that would collide with each other.
However, when the runes from the front and the back met, they crashed into each other like two floodwaters.
"Boom … Whoosh … Whoosh … Poof …"
Countless strange sounds were heard.
There were only sounds, but there were no shockwaves or airflows caused by explosions.
Every time a strange sound was heard, a large number of runes disappeared. They were like water meeting fire.
This situation was really strange. Yang Tian and the Little Blue Dragon, who were floating in the air, watched all this with wide eyes.
"I'm about to know …"
After an unknown amount of time, the strange program's voice suddenly sounded in Yang Tian's mind.
I'm about to know …
It seemed that the strange program's' memory 'had not fully recovered.
This was the first time the strange program was so excited to tell Yang Tian something that seemed unreliable. At the same time, it also meant that the strange program had become more human and had its own emotions.
Seeing these moving runes, the strange program seemed to be very excited.
The runes kept colliding and disappearing, but Yang Tian soon discovered that some of the runes did not disappear. Instead, they 'survived' and became bigger than before.
Yang Tian felt like he was in an absurd dream … Humans used runes to form words. Who had seen these words crawling all over the ground?
The bigger runes were more 'strong' than the smaller ones. Perhaps they had more power. When they collided with other runes, they absorbed the energy. Not only did they become bigger, but their shape also changed, becoming a different kind of rune.
These runes did not have intelligence, but as they kept colliding, the bigger runes seemed to have intelligence.
Originally, these runes collided casually, but the bigger runes actually had a sense of avoidance.
They would avoid anything that had the opposite energy. They would pounce on the runes that could prevent them from being injured and could directly devour them.
In the cave, there were more and more runes that were getting bigger.
Would these runes cause harm to the human body?
Seeing the countless runes' crawling 'on the cave, and the rocks that formed the cave did not change, Yang Tian had this thought.
If these runes would not hurt him, he could capture one of them and observe it closely.
As soon as the thought crossed his mind, Yang Tian could not help but laugh.
He spotted a slow-moving Interspatial Rune and raised his hand to grab it. The rune immediately flew into his hand.
To avoid being hurt by the rune, Yang Tian used his mental power. His entire hand was wrapped in his mental power, so the rune that he grabbed did not actually come into contact with Yang Tian's hand.
Yang Tian's mental power was connected to his consciousness. When he grabbed the rune, Yang Tian widened his eyes.
That was because those runes were actually made of countless tiny particles made of some unknown material. Furthermore, there was a rune on each of those tiny particles.
It was a wonderful structure — there were runes on the runes!
