Chapter 1490: Blocking Stone

~7 min read 1,285 words

As long as this stone is lowered, the things inside will be completely isolated from the world and will no longer be able to come out and cause trouble.

Originally, this Blocking Stone was sealing them, but looking at the current situation, it is likely that someone deliberately damaged the seal and opened the Blocking Stone halfway, which is why the Dream Weavers inside had a chance to catch their breath.

These things were likely done by Qingsong; in order to strengthen his power, he really dares to do anything.

Chen Yu took out Lichen and stared at the seal before him; he slowly raised the Lichen in his hand.

As long as he swung his sword down, he could lower the Duanmen Stone, yet the moment he raised his sword, his brows could not help but knit tightly together.

For some unknown reason, the sword in his hand felt as if it weighed a thousand pounds at this moment; he held the sword, but he was unable to swing it down.

His consciousness was also affected; in an instant, it was as if some force was summoning him from the netherworld, and the sword in his hand drifted to one side uncontrollably—the sword in his hand was going to destroy the seal.

Chen Yu was startled and quickly withdrew his sword; he took a few steps back and looked at the Blocking Stone before him in shock.

He knew that he was being influenced by the Dream Weavers; the Mental Power of these things is truly powerful. Even amidst layers of seals, even while in deep slumber, Chen Yu was still affected by them.

He closed his eyes, drew up a breath of Primordial Qi, and raised Lichen once more, but at this moment, his consciousness went black, and he was forcibly pulled into a world of ethereal emptiness.

This world was filled with white mist, illusory and ethereal; everything before his eyes was like a wisp of white smoke. As a melodious sound of a zither drifted over, Chen Yu turned his head to look and saw a graceful White-robed Onmyoji slowly playing the zither.

"Who are you?" Chen Yu stared at the White-robed Onmyoji before him and asked vigilantly.

His hand was already tightly gripped on Lichen; in fact, even if the other party did not answer, he knew in his heart that this guy was the Mengling manifested by the Dream Weavers.

"Hehe, you know in your heart who I am." The man smiled slightly and stopped the movement of his hands on the zither: "Are you here to seal us away completely?"

"Your existence is too great a threat, so you understand." Chen Yu nodded.

"We have no intention of hurting anyone. After the ancient upheaval occurred, we only wanted to seek a place to survive in this world, but this simple idea is so difficult to implement." The man murmured: "The human heart is the most terrifying thing in this world."

"No intention of hurting anyone? Hehe, you are trying to fool ghosts." Chen Yu sneered and said: "Qingsong previously let a Dream Weaver out; do you have no idea how much destruction it caused?"

The man remained silent. In fact, he did not need Chen Yu to tell him; he knew it in his heart. His clansmen had been suppressed for too long, so once they got out, they would indulge themselves, and thus some things were inevitable.

"Chen Yu, you have the Purple Star Emperor Fate; this kind of fate belongs to the Heavenly Mandate." The man raised his head and looked at Chen Yu: "I beg you for one thing."

"If you want me to let you go, that is impossible." Chen Yu shook his head.

"I can hand over my Soul Consciousness to be controlled by you. As long as you see us doing anything out of line, you can kill us immediately. I will absolutely have no complaints." The man said sincerely: "I only ask you to give me and my clansmen a chance."

"I know the nature of your clansmen too well. As long as I give you a little chance, you will seize it without hesitation and eventually escape." Chen Yu stared at the man and said indifferently: "So, just think about this in your heart; no need to say it to me, because even if you say it, it is useless."

"I shine my heart upon the moon, but the moon shines upon the ditch." The man sighed slightly and said: "Since that is the case, I will not force it. But Chen Yu, I truly want to cooperate with you. You can lower the Blocking Stone, but you can leave a little leeway for yourself."

"As long as the Blocking Stone leaves a small gap, this place will not be truly locked, and at the same time, it will still suppress us well. If you have any needs in the future, you can come to find me at any time, okay?"

Chen Yu's brows knitted slightly; to be honest, he was a bit tempted.

Chen Yu knew what he would face in the future. The Dream Weavers were a near-heretical existence from the ancient period, so as long as they were there, Chen Yu could fear no enemy.

But their danger was truly too great, so Chen Yu was hesitant.

"You know what kind of enemies you are facing, so consider it carefully. Once you have considered it, you can come to find me at any time. My name is... Lu Ming." The man saw Chen Yu's hesitation; he could not help but smile slightly, then continued to lower his head and play the zither.

Chen Yu stood on the spot for a long time without speaking. After a long while, he pondered and said: "Fine, I will consider it carefully. I will not lower the Blocking Stone completely either."

"Good, thank you." Lu Ming said sincerely: "My clansmen, including me, are only six people left now... so we are just seeking survival, and have no other intentions."

Chen Yu nodded. His eyes brightened, and he exited that space. He looked at the Blocking Stone before him, placed a Spirit Stone under the Blocking Stone, and then swung his sword to lower the Blocking Stone.

Boom—a huge sound rang out. The Blocking Stone slowly descended, and the world inside was completely isolated from the outside.

Only because of the Spirit Stone placed underneath, there was a tiny gap here.

Watching the seal form again, Chen Yu slowly exhaled a breath; the stone in his heart was finally put down.

The previous Dream Weaver, even without its power recovered, had left him in a state of exhaustion. If this race really came out, it would truly be troublesome.

Although there were only six of them, they could truly overturn this world. However, what Lu Ming said was not without reason; Chen Yu should indeed leave a way out for himself.

After Chen Yu left, six rays of Spiritual Light slowly condensed inside the stone cave; this was the consciousness of the six Dream Weavers.

The brightest one among them was Lu Ming. Sensing that Chen Yu had left this place, he truly felt relieved: "He has left."

"Did you persuade him?" Several people were communicating with their consciousness.

"I should have persuaded him; otherwise, he would not have left a back door in our seal."

"Then can we use this door to escape?"

"Don't even think about it. Do you really think Chen Yu is a fool? That he wouldn't leave any countermeasures? He left a seal here; if we dare to act rashly, he will absolutely lock this place tight..."
