Chapter 1827 Can’t afford it
Within the Three Lives Stone, there are two things about Dugu Rou that seem to be of particular importance.
One thing was that she was killed by a guy named Cang Yu.
Just how strong this person was, Chen Xuan and the others had no idea.
However, it is known that this person has a very long history and is very powerful.
At the very least, he is probably a supreme being of the highest level!
Another thing is that in Dugu Rou's present life, a person with a blurry appearance has appeared by her side. Her face and figure are not clearly visible.
To put it bluntly, this person is like a mosaic, seemingly not belonging to this world.
But he appeared, thus bringing the scenes of Dugu Rou in the Three Lives Stone to an abrupt end.
If nothing unexpected happens, it should be this person who completely changed Dugu Rou's life trajectory.
"Alright, I've seen my past and present lives. I have no afterlife, which means that when I die in this life, I'm completely dead."
"Now, Chen Xuan, it's your turn."
Dugu Rou stepped aside and presented the Three Lives Stone with both hands.
Chen Xuan did not hesitate and accepted the Three Lives Stone, using it as a mirror to look at himself.
"Ok?"
"How is this going?"
Something unexpected happened to the two of them.
On the Stone of Three Lives, one could see Chen Xuan's past life, present life, and future life.
It was all a vast expanse of white!
It was as if everything was obscured by a thick layer of clouds.
Why can't your past life, present life, and future life be reflected in the Three Lives Stone?
Dugu Rou's eyes widened slightly, somewhat incredulous.
In fact, not only her, but Chen Xuan himself was also somewhat surprised.
"I am not sure as well."
Chen Xuan held the Three Lives Stone, turning it over and over to look at it, but no matter how he tried, the mirror remained a blank white.
This puzzled Chen Xuan greatly; he couldn't understand whether the Three Lives Stone was broken.
"I have seen some records about the Three Lives Stone in some notes left by the Desolate Celestial Venerable."
"It is said that some people do not belong to this world or this history, therefore, their past, present and future lives cannot be reflected on the Three Lives Stone."
"Chen Xuan, you wouldn't happen to be that kind of person, would you?"
Dugu Rou stared at Chen Xuan with a suspicious look.
Chen Xuan was slightly stunned.
Not belonging to this world?
Not part of this history?
What do these two sentences mean?
"I stand here upright, a living, breathing human being, how could I not belong to this world?"
Chen Xuan himself felt baffled and couldn't understand it.
"I don't know either, but that's what the ancient books record. This is something left behind by the Desolate Celestial Venerable. You wouldn't question the Desolate Celestial Venerable's authority, would you?"
Dugu Rou shook her head, equally confused.
Suddenly, she thought of something, looked at Chen Xuan with wide eyes, and continued:
"In the image of my Three Lives Stone, a blurry figure appeared, and it was because of this figure's appearance that the image of the Three Lives Stone stopped. Could this figure be you?"
Her reminder made Chen Xuan instantly remember.
He was just wondering who that blurry, mosaic-like shadow that suddenly appeared next to Dugu Rou in the Three Lives Stone scene was.
Now it seems that it really could be him!
"Chen Xuan, you're in big trouble!"
Dugu Rou stared at Chen Xuan suspiciously, scrutinizing him from head to toe, as if trying to see right through him.
Chen Xuan felt a little uncomfortable being stared at like that, so he shrugged and said, "How about I take off all my clothes and let you take a good look at me?"
"Go to hell, stop being a scoundrel!"
Dugu Rou rolled her eyes.
The two had another minor argument.
In the end, Chen Xuan put the Three Lives Stone back into a remote corner.
After all, this stone cannot reflect Chen Xuan's past, present, or future lives.
In other words, this thing has no effect on Chen Xuan, and there's no point in him continuing to hold it.
It's worth mentioning that the Desolate Celestial Venerable initially threw the Three Lives Stone into a corner.
Although no one knows why he was left here, out of respect for him, later generations, after seeing their past and present lives on the Three Lives Stone, eventually returned the stone to its original place.
So Chen Xuan put it back in its original place.
As for taking the Three Lives Stone out with him, Chen Xuan had never considered that idea.
Because this thing has no combat power whatsoever, it's a useless item to take out.
Most importantly, if this thing is taken out of the world, one will have to bear the consequences from the Desolate Celestial Venerable.
The things that the Celestial Lord of Desolation specifically left here, and you actually took them out?
What is this thing called?
Who can bear the karmic consequences of the Heavenly Venerable?
Even the Supreme Being cannot withstand this!
"What a pity, what a pity. We can't get into the cage, and we don't even know what that shrine inside is."
Chen Xuan sighed.
The cage, formed from nine kinds of Dao metals, and the shrine locked inside, look simple and unadorned, but they are one of the two sources of the Yellow Springs River in all the heavens and myriad worlds!
The origin of this shrine must be incredibly profound; no one knows which supreme being left it behind.
"That thing is terrifying. It's better not to get close. I feel my heart pounding faster the closer I get, which makes me feel panicked and very uncomfortable."
Seeing that Chen Xuan was still obsessed with the shrine inside, Dugu Rou shook her head with lingering fear.
"You actually feel flustered?"
Chen Xuan was very surprised and taken aback.
You should know that Dugu Rou's heart is that of an angel!
Even when facing the severed hand of the Chaotic Celestial Venerable during the second trial, he did not panic.
And now, facing that shrine, I feel a sense of unease.
Could it be that this shrine is even more terrifying than the Heavenly Venerable's Hand?
"Let's go. I feel very depressed and uncomfortable here."
Dugu Rou said that she did not want to stay here any longer.
"Okay, let's go then."
Chen Xuan nodded.
They had already seen the Three Lives Stone, and they couldn't get close to the shrine in the cage. Even if they could, they wouldn't dare to.
This journey should come to an end.
When I came in, I explored little by little, slowly making my way in, which took more than a day.
However, when they went out, they were familiar with the route and moved very quickly. In just a few hours, the two of them were out.
After the two emerged from the spring, they calculated the time and found that there were still more than twenty days left.
Because of his agreement with his wife, Chen Xuan could no longer fish or bait the area, nor could he attack the hunting teams of the tribal alliance.
So for the next twenty days or so, he had nothing to do and could do whatever he wanted.
"I have an idea, do you want to hear it?"
Suddenly, Chen Xuan looked at Dugu Rou with a smile.
