Chapter 1183 - 1056: Found a Clue
Senior Xuan sighed upon hearing this.Then, he felt a sharp pain in his Divine Soul, as if a silver needle had fiercely pierced into it, causing unbearable pain.
Fortunately, that intense pain did not last long; he realized that the Divine Thought he used to control that corpse had been destroyed by those Exotic Realm Creatures.
"It seems to us outsiders that we differ from those trapped here; they cannot see that figure under the ancient well! But even if we can see that figure under the ancient well, we cannot directly go down with our current bodies!"
Immediately, he remembered a bottle of water he had retrieved earlier from his storage ring. He swiftly took it out and used his Divine Sense to examine it.
After a while, he exhaled, having discovered that the bottle of water was filled with a powerful liquid.
This liquid was infused with very potent energy, capable of dissolving other objects.
To avoid being dissolved by this liquid, one must possess self-protecting defensive power.
"I just examined the living creatures here and realized a major difference between them and us outsiders is that they have a naturally embedded rune on their chest. I don't know what its purpose is, but it grants the beings here very strong defensive power! To enter the ancient well, one would need strong self-defensive power to resist the well's corrosive energy! It's possible that once the living creatures here enter the ancient well, the rune activates to protect their bodies from corrosion. This way, the creatures here wouldn't be destroyed by the corrosive energy within the well! The corrosive energy inside the well can only destroy those living creatures that have not died; perhaps it means those deceased creatures here can trigger resistance against the invasion of the corrosive energy inside the well, allowing them to remain uncorroded!"
After pondering for a while, Senior Xuan finally came up with the best explanation.
With a thought, he began to mimic the runes on the deceased bodies nearby.
After some time, he fully grasped how to write those runes.
To verify his hypothesis, he quickly conducted some simple experiments on his left hand.
After a while, he concluded that his previous hypothesis was correct.
"So that's how it is!"
He was overjoyed, knowing he had finally found the key to leaving the Secret Realm.
He also understood that whether he could leave with Duan Gujin and Shi Potian depended on his full mastery of the rune's writing.
Moreover, he needed to thoroughly verify if he could master the rune's writing skillfully.
He knew that unless he had absolute mastery of writing the runes, it was best not to let Duan Gujin or Shi Potian take risks.
Thus, he immediately called over one of the elders to study the rune on his body closely.
After a moment, he found that the rune on the elder was far more intricate than he had imagined.
He went into meticulous mimicry, and after half a day, he finally managed to replicate a rune.
After confirming his mimicry was accurate, he attempted to engrave the rune onto his own body.
As time passed, he spent most of the day, finally managing to engrave the rune.
Then, he wrote that rune on his right hand.
Once he finished writing, he began to activate the rune.
After a moment, the rune emitted a faint white glow.
Senior Xuan furrowed his brow, realizing that he hadn't observed such a glow from the bodies that his Divine Soul had occupied.
Thus, he promptly found the Wushan Clan Chief to compare his understanding of the rune.
However, he was told that they were naturally unaware of the rune's meaning.
"As soon as we're born, this rune appears on us!"
The Wushan Clan Chief told Senior Xuan earnestly.
"What? How can this be possible?"
Hearing the Clan Chief's words, Senior Xuan furrowed his brow.
He contemplated for a while, but couldn't figure it out; he felt the Clan Chief's words completely overturned his past understanding.
"Clan Chief, I believe your clan's inability to leave this dreadful place might have something to do with the rune on your bodies!"
Senior Xuan expressed his hypothesis.
"I think so too; I've noticed before that the major difference between the outsiders and us is that they don't have our type of rune!"
The Wushan Clan Chief replied seriously.
Senior Xuan's eyes flashed, and he immediately asked the Clan Chief to take him to see their pregnant women.
"Clan Chief, do you have any pregnant women here? I want to see the situation inside their wombs!"
"No problem, come with me! Rest assured, those allies of yours outside, I've already sent people to protect them! If they encounter a large number of Otherworld creatures, my subordinates will take them away immediately! Rest assured, your subordinates will be fine!"
The Wushan Clan Chief promised confidently.
"Much appreciated, Clan Chief!"
Senior Xuan had no leisure to worry about the situation of the Divine World Martial Artists outside; he knew well that even if they were killed by Exotic Realm Creatures or the subordinates of the current Clan Chief, he could do nothing to stop it.
