Chapter 410: Ten Thousand Buddha Cave and the Power of Fate (2)
He roughly understood that these people probably thought that human demons had come up from below the cliff, so they were here to chase them away.
However, they did not expect there to be so many human demons here. That was why they were so frightened that they activated the alarm as soon as they saw them.
“I wonder how these people discovered us in the Chaotic Log…”
With a thought, Lin Yan gave the human demon king an order to gather the human demon s emotions and follow their instincts to go down this rock wall!
This fortress looked magnificent, but if there were a thousand human demons with strength equivalent to the Black Grade n.o.ble Realm, the fortress would probably not be able to withstand in
Instead of a conflict, it was better to let these human demons leave first.
The human demon king roared and commanded all the human demons to walk to the edge of the cliff.
Although the cliff was steep, it was easy for the demons to grab the rock wall and climb down. Therefore, the group of nearly a thousand human demons climbed down the rock wall together.
Lin Yan turned around and looked at the fortress that seemed to be seething. He sensed the energy fluctuations emitted by Cheng Yu’er around him again.
These fluctuations kept drilling into Lin Yan’s body, causing him to have a subconscious urge to bring Cheng Yu’er and Hua Ling to the fortress. In that case, they could completely leave the human demons and find a way back to human society.
This was probably what Cheng Yu’er and Hua Ling were thinking now.
“Therefore, there’s a high chance that Cheng Yu’er’s intuition does a special effect…”
Lin Yan suppressed the excitement in his heart and ignored his intuition, instead, he called for the human demons to carry Cheng Yu’er and Hua Ling down the cliff!
In comparison, he was even more curious about the human demon world below the cliff.
From the reactions of the armored soldiers, it was obvious that there were more human demons below. It could even be said that there was a human demon kingdom.
He was prepared to go down and explore the human demon world to confirm why Cheng Yu er’s intuition had guided them here. Was it just to reach this safe fortress or was there another reason?
The steepness of the cliff exceeded Lin Yan’s imagination as he climbed down with the human demons.
There was no wind, and the Chaotic Fog covered up and down, so there was no feeling of climbing up the cliff at all.
Only the human demon’s claws stabbed into the stone wall, emitting ear-piercing sounds that constantly echoed in the entire Misty Cage.
There was no sound along the way. After climbing for four to five hundred meters, he actually did not see anything abnormal. There was only a rough rock wall and a rock layer with a changing color.
it was not until he had climbed down another hundred meters that Lin Yan suddenly stopped on the rock wall. After the human demons had gone down a distance, he gently wiped off the plaster covering the rock wall.
However, half of a benevolent-looking stone face was revealed under the mud!
The stone statue was embedded in the rock wall, leaving only the front face and half of the body.
“This stone statue seems to be… a Buddha statue?”
Lin Yan’s eyes widened slightly as he carefully identified it. The bun on his head had been smoothed out, but he had a kind expression and a smile. He indeed looked like a Buddha statue.
Lin Yan’s heart skipped a beat as he subconsciously thought of the Thousand Buddhas Cave.
However, on second thought, he laughed self-deprecatingly. He was too stupid. Whenever he saw the Buddha statue, he thought of the Thousand Buddhas Cave. Did he really think that Cheng Yu’er’s intuition was so G.o.dly?
Back in the ruins of Ancient Fan Nation, he had also discovered the G.o.ddess Temple embedded in the rock wall on the same cliff. He had also seen many Buddha statues.
However, most of the Buddha statues had protruding eyes and strange styles. They were completely different from the Buddha statues here.
This Buddha statue was clearly not the style of the Ancient Fan Nation, so it naturally could not be the Thousand Buddhas Cave.
“Perhaps it’s the Buddhist temple in Qingye City in the past, or the remnants of an ancient ruin from further before…”
Suppressing the restlessness in his heart, Lin Yan followed the human demons down.
“Hmm? Another Buddha statue!”
Not long after, Lin Yan saw another Buddha statue. This Buddha statue was larger and was embedded in the rock wall. It had a benevolent look, and its style was rather similar to the Buddha statue from before.
As he continued down, the frequency of Buddha statues appearing increased. Every few steps, Lin Yan would discover something embedded in the rock wall that was related to the Buddha temple. Some were Buddha statues, while others were the remains of temple offerings.
Without exception, these things were embedded in the rock wall, and their sizes were not big.
At the same time, other than the Buddha statues and Buddhist artifacts, Lin Yan also discovered many deep pits on the rock wall. Every one of them was the size of a human. There seemed to be something embedded inside, but now, everything had been dug out, leaving only a pit.
The pits intersected with the Buddha statues and the remains of the Buddhist artifact, like a desolate graveyard of excavated remains.
“This place was probably once a prosperous Buddhist temple, which is why there are Buddha statues everywhere…’1
However, about ten meters down, Lin Yan discovered another white stone Buddha statue with a different style!
This Buddha statue had a huge head and long and droopy ears. There were whiskers in its eyes and eyebrows, and its expression was solemn. Be it its form or the style of the sculpture, it was different from the Buddha statue he had seen just now.
Lin Yan’s heart skipped a beat as he continued down the rock wall. Along the way, there were Buddha statues of this style that alternated with pits. Other than the difference in the sculpture style, the rest were very similar to the Buddha statues on the rock wall above. They were both small-sized Buddha statues and large-sized pits.
The more he looked, the more Lin Yan felt that the shapes of these pits were clearly Buddha statues!
However, for some reason, the large Buddha statues were dug out, leaving only pits.
Just as he was feeling surprised, a commotion suddenly came from the human demon below, as if he had encountered something and was roaring angrily.
Lin Yan immediately moved like a gecko. The Black Tortoise Divine Armor attached to the rock wall and he quickly climbed down.
When he arrived at the bottom, he realized that a group of human demons was tearing and beating up another human demon. The human demon only had one claw firmly embedded in the rock wall and was unable to resist the group at all. It was about to fall.
“This is… a human demon that originally lived here?!”
After getting the human demon king to stop the beating, Lin Yan hurriedly crawled to Cheng Yu’er’s side and understood the situation again. Only then did he know that this human demon was originally crawling in the rock wall. When they climbed down, he suddenly jumped out to attack. Instead, he was beaten up by the other human demons and almost fell.
Understanding the situation, Lin Yan ordered the human demon king to ask for as much information as possible. The human demon who was beaten cowered before suddenly saying in a low and hoa.r.s.e voice, “Follow me!”
After saying that, he climbed down the deeper rock layer.
“It can speak, and it speaks human language…”
These human demons had probably developed a civilization similar to humans!
He ordered the human demon king to follow the local.
The human demon’s route was very strange. It was not a straight line, but a large circle. It moved around a large curve and took the crooked route of climbing down the rock wall.
However, it was not walking randomly. It was obvious that it followed a certain route and bypa.s.sed certain areas. It was as if it was walking along roads in the city. However, this city was vertical and there were no tall buildings.
Along the way, Lin Yan didn’t take a closer look. He had already roughly discovered that there were no less than 30 Buddha statues with different styles. Every one of them was unique, but he could see the image of Buddha.
There might be similarities, but there would definitely be differences in the subtleties.
Thinking about it, the number of Buddha statues on the entire rock wall from top to bottom was probably uncountable!
Lin Yan had no choice but to think of the Thousand Buddhas Cave!
“Thousand Buddhas Cave, Thousand Buddhas Cave. w.a.n.g Yue didn’t say that the Thousand Buddhas Cave and Earth Abyss Pure Land was a place of Ancient Fan Nation…”
Lin Yan was excited, worried, and even a little horrified.
He was worried that this was just a coincidence and not the real Thousand Buddhas Cave.
What was terrifying was that this was really the Thousand Buddhas Cave!
If it was really the Thousand Buddhas Cave, it could only be that Cheng Yu’er’s intuition had unreasonably brought him here!
This was an extremely terrifying matter.
That was because he had not even mentioned it to Cheng Yu’er, but because of Cheng Yu’er’s intuition, he had come to the Thousand Buddhas Cave that he had been searching for?
The power of fate? A puppet on a string?
Lin Yan had a faint premonition. Or rather, the strange energy fluctuations from Cheng Yu’er around him made him have a dazed intuition.. This was really the Thousand Buddhas Cave…
