Chapter 1530: Chapter 1523

The ground beneath Xin Lin’s feet seemed rather special.

The surface was not smooth, it appeared to have numerous carved marks.

"These on the ground are all special weathering patterns of Haotian Platform. Haotian Platform is located at the highest point of Wangjing City, and every night, the wind sounds like a crane’s cry, very loud. These are natural patterns, they’ve been this way for years. In recent years, due to increased weathering, there’s a trend for the patterns to expand outward."

Prince Yuan saw Xin Lin staring blankly at her feet and approached, smiling as he explained.

Also due to the wind, inside Haotian Platform, the lights on each level’s lampstands couldn’t be lit with normal lamps; earlier, when Prince Yuan lit the lamps, he had to use True Qi to ignite the forty-nine levels of lights.

Formed by weathering?

Xin Lin was somewhat surprised.

Because, in her view, these patterns on the ground didn’t quite seem to be formed by natural forces.

At least, these patterns were not.

Perhaps Prince Yuan didn’t recognize these patterns, but Xin Lin found them familiar at first glance.

She had a good memory, with just a quick recall, she remembered where she had seen these patterns.

Qin Mountain... At the mountain’s summit, there was that ancient Spirit Array.

Xin Lin recalled that previously Gui Hu used to take the Overlord Egg to Qin Mountain for cultivation.

At that time, that Spirit Array was still intact.

Or rather, the Spirit Array was repaired by Gui Hu.

Xin Lin wanted to ask Danzi, but considering Danzi’s intelligence, after its last transformation it likely wouldn’t remember much.

It seems that only the Pride Corpse could confirm if it was that particular Spirit Array.

However, even if this was Qin Mountain’s Spirit Array, this Array must have been abandoned for many years.

Because in Xin Lin’s vision, she could only see those suspected weathering marks, and no other Spiritual Energy.

No wonder Prince Yuan said it was left naturally.

"Second Brother, there are clearly fifty levels here, why is it always said that Haotian Platform has only forty-nine levels?"

Xin Lin looked at the level where they were situated.

This level should be considered the first level of Haotian Platform.

Above, each level had lampstands, but this one didn’t.

"This is related to Haotian Platform’s construction. When it was built back then, it was constructed with forty-nine levels in mind, but after completion, it was discovered there was an underground Dark layer beneath the foundation, which is this level. The previous Emperor consulted unusual figures, who suggested this level could be retained for suppressing evil and protecting our Fuzhou for a thousand years. So this level was preserved, and lampstands were built on top. It’s said that this was arranged by that Mutant."

Prince Yuan explained.

Protection for a thousand years?

Xin Lin was inwardly shocked.

It seems that the unusual figure had some insights.

At that time, they already saw that there were ghosts rampant in Wangjing, yet why didn’t that Mutant act directly to suppress them, instead allowing Haotian Platform to suppress?

Could this pavilion have some special aspect?

"Second Brother, how long has this Haotian Platform been built up to now?"

Xin Lin asked casually.

"It seems it’s almost a thousand years. The exact years would require the court’s ritual officer."

Prince Yuan pondered.

A thousand years?

If what that Mutant said is true, then what happens once the thousand years have passed?

Judging by Second Brother’s demeanor, he probably doesn’t believe in the protection of Fuzhou, just as he and the Royal Family believe these patterns are merely the result of weathering.

Xin Lin pondered, considering whether to mention this matter to Second Brother.
