Overriding the Heaven

Soon, he saw a black line stretch down from the top of the stone pillar, taking the shape of an arc. Then, it fell straight onto the stone platform.    

Moreover, there was more than one of these black lines.    

Several of the pillars fell to the ground.    

These stone pillars did not just stand side by side on the stone platform, but separated from each other in an arc.    

Thus, after these black lines fell from the top of the stone pillar, they all converged towards the same spot on the stone platform.    

"Those are... "Chains." Chu Yan stared at it for a moment, then said gently.    

Each chain should be as thick as two fingers of an adult.    

It was only because the stone pillars were too thick that the chains seemed to be thin like lines.    

"There's something under the pillar." Chu Yan turned and looked at Lin Miaoran.    

Lin Miaoran obviously had the same thoughts as Chu Yan.    

However, at this moment, for some reason, the place where the chains gathered seemed to be covered by a veil, making it hard for people to see the truth.    

"Do you want to …" Lin Miaoran muttered to himself for a moment and asked.    

She wanted Chu Yan's opinion.    

Since they were already here, they would feel indignant if they did not take a look.    

"Let's go take a look." Chu Yan nodded, and took a step forward, at the same time he said to Lin Miaoran who was behind him: "You walk behind me."    

If he did this, it was obviously to prevent danger from occurring, he could buy Lin Miaoran some time.    

Lin Miaoran's heart warmed, with a grunt, she followed closely behind Chu Yan.    

The moment they stepped on the stone platform, the two of them felt an invisible pressure suddenly fall on their hearts.    

The source of the pressure was the four stone columns.    

Although the four stone pillars were just standing there, they gave off the impression that they were four pitch-black giants that could support the heavens and prop up the earth. They stood there silently as they looked down.    

If it were any other ordinary person, their legs would probably have turned weak and they would have been unable to move forward.    

The quieter it was, the heavier the pressure became.    

When Chu Yan got close to where the chains were gathering at, he realized that his back was covered in a thin layer of cold sweat.    

When he looked at Lin Miaoran again, Lin Miaoran's palm was already covered in sweat.    

Furthermore, Lin Miaoran's face was obviously a little pale.    

Seeing Chu Yan looking at his, she forced a smile: "It's fine."    

A few more steps forward, Chu Yan and Lin Miaoran finally understood why they couldn't see the place where the chains were gathered.    

This area was shrouded in shadow, and there was even a stone tablet standing there.    

When Chu Yan and the rest were standing at the end of the stone path and looking in their direction, their line of sight was blocked by the shadows and the stone tablet, so they could not see what was happening behind them.    

"There are words on the stone monument!"    

As he got closer, Lin Miaoran let out a low cry.    

Chu Yan raised his head and saw a stone tablet that was around the height of a man, the word "Sin" was written on it.    

This word seemed to have been drawn with the help of a sword.    

However, that sharp light seemed as if it wanted to break the rock from each stroke.    

Just by looking at it, Chu Yan and Lin Miaoran couldn't help but have a feeling that the scimitar was pressing down hard on their throats, making them hard to breathe.    

Chu Yan had only felt this kind of feeling from Tang Liang's Extreme Fury Sword Intent before.    

However, compared to Tang Liang's Extreme Angry Sword Intent, the words on the stone tablet seemed to be even more profound and profound.    

Bearing with the immense psychological pressure, Chu Yan walked closer to the stone tablet and looked carefully.    

After a moment, he retreated.    

"What do you mean?" Lin Miaoran asked.    

"The stone tablet should have been erected here for quite some time, but I can't pinpoint its exact age." Chu Yan pondered for a moment, and said: "It might be a few hundred years, or it might be a few thousand years."    

After Lin Miaoran heard this, she muttered to herself for a moment and said: "Could this be related to what the corpse said before?"    

Chu Yan muttered to himself.    

He remembered that when the skeleton was walking towards him, it kept saying some strange things.    

From the meaning of the words, it seemed like it was trapped here and not buried here.    

And here was a stone tablet with the word "Sin" written on it.    

"Don't think about it." After a while, Chu Yan raised his head.    

"Hmm?"    

"Let's see what's behind the monument." While Chu Yan was speaking, he had already circled around the monument and walked towards the back of the monument.    

At the same time, he was also explaining.    

"Did you notice those chains? The last place they converged on wasn't this stone tablet, but the back of the stone tablet. That is to say, there are other things behind the stone tablet …"    

Chu Yan's words came to an abrupt end.    

Lin Miaoran followed closely behind Chu Yan. Realizing the change, she anxiously took a step back and peeked her head out.    

With just a glance, she was stunned as well.    

"This... "What is this …"    

After a moment, Lin Miaoran regained her senses and sucked in a breath of cold air.    

Chu Yan looked at what he saw in front of him, a light flickering in his eyes: "Today can be said to have broadened my horizons."    

Behind the stone monument, at the place where the chains converged, was another skeleton.    

It was just that this skeleton was way too pathetic compared to the one that was sitting on top of the white bone throne.    

The falling chain had pierced through its body, buckling its shoulder blades, shoulder blades, knees, and so on. It was then placed in a half-kneeling position. Finally, it was twisted into a ball and locked in place.    

Looking at its appearance, it was easy to suspect that when this white bone was still alive, it had been nailed here and then let to die.    

After an unknown amount of time, the flesh and the internal organs on its body were reduced to dust, eventually turning into a skeleton.    

Even if they became skeletons, they wouldn't be able to escape their fate of being trapped.    

It was hard to imagine what kind of person would bear such torture.    

At this time, thinking about the word "sin" on the stone tablet, Chu Yan's heart suddenly moved.    

But just at this time, Lin Miaoran suddenly took a step forward and tightly grabbed onto Chu Yan's arm.    

Chu Yan could not help but be surprised at the power of this attack.    

And what made Chu Yan even more surprised was that Lin Miaoran's body was currently trembling.    

"Chu Yan... "It..." Lin Miaoran took a deep breath, and said with a trembling voice. "It's still alive …"    

Chu Yan focused his gaze.    

This skeleton had been hidden here for at least a thousand years. Moreover, he had never heard of such a thing.    

Although the previous skeleton could move, it still relied on those strange waxes.    

It wasn't that he was alive, it was just the will of a dead soul controlling him.    

Chu Yan pressed down on Lin Miaoran's hands, and looked at the skeleton with its chains wrapped around it.    

After a moment, he sucked in a breath of cold air.    

Lin Miaoran did not lie.    

The skeleton really was alive.    

It was not the will of the dead that caused it to move.    

Rather, the ribs on the chest of the skeleton were moving up and down regularly, as if a person was breathing.
