Chapter 759: Chapter 757 Broken Curse (16)_1 Chapter 759: Chapter 757 Broken Curse (16)_1 “Mr. Yun, what do you think?”
“As you wish.”
Faced with Ni Huayuan’s question, Fu Qian, as the team’s absolute main force, had no objection to the inclusion of Teacher Chang.
After some discussion, the team that satisfied many parties was finally assembled.
And the next moment, Fu Qian walked into that uncertain fork in the road without saying a word, full of the aura of a sword demon.
“Teacher Chang Mo, what do you think about those strange statues?”
It turned out the female instructor was named Chang Mo, and her willingness to follow had effectively lightened Fu Qian’s burden of communication.
After all, for the instructor who had joined the team out of concern for himself, Ji Liushuang clearly could not just leave her aside, and while walking down the passage, she quietly asked.
Of course, this did not delay the progress of the team at all.
Sword Dao cultivation has a significant revitalizing effect on the physical body, and even Ji Liushuang, who was the lowest in rank, had considerable stamina–let alone a Swordsmanship Department instructor.
Therefore, the team’s progress was extraordinarily efficient.
Additionally, although the team’s absolute main force, Sword Path Demigod Mr. Yun, actually had nothing to do with Sword Dao, his physical strength was even more exaggerated.
“It’s difficult to judge, considering it is a relic from the Mythic Era, the meanings behind various figures back then were extremely complex.”
To Ji Liushuang, Chang Mo was obviously very protective, pondering thoughtfully for a while before speaking.
“In that era, even the same deity could have different appearances at different times, and such situations were not uncommon.”
“Does that mean, the statue might have been added later?”
Ji Liushuang clearly had not considered this issue before.
“It’s possible, but the era is too distant, so it is still very difficult to differentiate.”
Chang Mo shook her head, then watched as Ji Liushuang contemplated and turned her attention towards Fu Qian.
“Mr. Yun, what do you think?”
How come she feels like she has become the preamble for starting the topic?
Chang Mo paused momentarily, a look of helplessness on her face, but did not immediately stop her.
Ji Liushuang was quite interested in the Sword Path Demigod, and almost everyone at the Academy could see that.
But the interactions between people are indeed mysterious.
This unapproachable killing figure, however, had rare patience with Ji Liushuang.
Even from previous exchanges, there was no sign of any malicious misguidance, at most it seemed like the stern advice of an elder.
Thus, after the initial tension, she did not feel that he posed much of a threat to Ji Liushuang.
The proactive request to follow was but to keep a watchful eye.
“Divine Beings’ images often reflect the projections of their followers.”
Moving quickly, Fu Qian did not neglect to survey his surroundings.
Facing Ji Liushuang’s question, he casually said.
“Perhaps that unnamed deity just gained an oddly-shaped believer.”
“…Are you referring to the corpse in the stone chamber behind us?”
This interpretation was without doubt a fresh perspective.
For a moment, not only was Ji Liushuang stunned, but Chang Mo too perked up her ears to listen.
That body had almost turned to stone and could indeed hail from the Mythic Era.
But could that nearly monstrous figure also have been a follower of a Deity?
“There are teachings without distinctions; don’t underestimate the tolerance of Divine Beings, though the other followers might not all think this way.”
As if knowing what was on their minds, Fu Qian continued.
These words were not completely nonsensical; on the way here, they had also seen the statue of that unnamed deity at some corners.
Although still incomplete, the debris indicates that they all had normal appearances.
This suggests that the statue in the secret chamber obviously belongs to a special case.
“This is why that statue was in such a hidden place because it was rejected by other believers!”
Ji Liushuang’s eyes lit up as she listened.
“But why were they all smashed? That kind of destruction was clearly man-made.”
“You can ask Teacher Chang about that.”
…
As Chang Mo pondered how likely Fu Qian’s statement was, he was caught off guard when the question was kicked back to him. He pondered for a moment.
“Actually, it’s not strange. During the Mythic Era, it was almost the same fate for nearly all deities, and it was not others but their own followers who took action against them.”
“That long and endless night accumulated too much fear and pain, a significant part of which was released in this manner.”
“So that’s how it was, that makes sense.”
Although he spoke in a veiled manner, Ji Liushuang still grasped the teacher’s meaning and sighed softly.
The catastrophe that ended the Mythic Era was no secret, and she was naturally aware of it.
The terror and anger brought about by complete abandonment during that endless night were equally imaginable.
“But if this was the reason, the unnamed deities have long since stopped protecting their believers. Then what about the revelation received by the Kamakura Family?”
However, another question occurred to her in an instant.
“I tend to believe that it was a story made up by the ancestors of the Kamakura Family.”
Chang Mo smiled faintly.
“Although their abilities really don’t resemble the Sword Dao, they did pick up some of the bad habits of the Sword Dao, such as creating a personified spiritual totem for themselves and conjuring the concept of divine favor.”
“That is an absolute wrong path, completely meaningless aside from restricting oneself. You must never do such a thing.”
As she expressed her disdain, she also did not forget to warn Ji Liushuang.
Um.
The latter nodded earnestly.
“As for why they have such cryptic powers, even President Cass and Mr. Yun are not certain, so I’m even less able to judge… Hmm, looks like there’s no way through?”
The next moment, Chang Mo paused mid-breath, saying with a hint of surprise.
Indeed, as the three of them passed through another stone door, what appeared before them was a hall-style area.
Compared to other places, this one was greatly damaged, with everywhere littered with fragments and ruins, nearly half the area blocked and covered.
At a glance, there were no other ways out.
“What do we do? Do we go back the way we came?”
Chang Mo instinctively looked towards Fu Qian.
On their way here, there were indeed some side paths, but considering the special composition of their team, they had opted for a rather straightforward choice–straight downward.
Now that there was no way forward, the most natural thought was to return to the previous fork in the road and continue searching other areas or to go directly to meet up with the rest of the team.
“Considering the overall structure of the ruins, there should be another level below.”
However, Fu Qian was thoughtfully looking at the pile of rubble, not in a hurry to answer her.
What?

After realizing what the other person was saying, Chang Mo was utterly bewildered.
The overall structure… Surely, this guy wasn’t drawing a structural diagram in his head while they were on the move?
“Looking at it like this, even if there is another level, it’s very likely that it’s already collapsed and blocked.”
Despite her shock, she could not help but speak up the next moment.
“The target we’re seeking can’t possibly still be digging through walls to go down, could it?”
