Doomsday Drifting Begins with Shipbuilding

Chapter 93: The End of the Cave
Since the next step is to go deep into the entrance of the cave, and Shuibao cannot follow in, Chen Xuan can only let Shuibao wait outside first.

As for himself, he carefully walked deep into the cave with a fluorescent stick in one hand and an iron gun in the other.

The cave was full of weeds and was barren. It looked like no one had ever been here, but Chen Xuan didn't dare to relax his vigilance at all.

It was quiet everywhere, even quieter than when I was diving before. At that time, I could still hear the sound of water bubbles and fish swimming, but here I couldn't hear anything except my own footsteps.

After walking a few dozen more steps, the surrounding walls became much more regular, and something similar to stone steps appeared under the feet.

The blue light is also becoming more and more intense, which shows that he has gradually approached the source of the blue light.

Gradually, some carvings even began to appear on the walls.

There are people, beasts, and all kinds of strange things that I don't know what they are.

I don't know how long these carvings have existed, but they still look very clear and intact.

But in Chen Xuan's impression, there is no such a relevant place of interest on Dongji Mountain.

Perhaps there are many famous ancient buildings in Dongji Mountain, but there are definitely no stone carvings.

Was it carved by modern people?

But these carvings look very exquisite, and the amount of work is definitely not small, who would come here to do these things in their spare time?
Wild artist?
Shaking his head, Chen Xuan quickly rejected this idea.

Chen Xuan tried to scan it again with the "Movable Type Illustrated Book Module", and soon got feedback.

------

Name: Ancient Ruins

Features: The time is unknown. Judging from the style of the murals, it is far earlier than human civilization. Some information seems to be recorded in it, but the data is incomplete and cannot be analyzed.

------

This is actually an ancient relic!
Dongji Mountain is a very mysterious place. It was once regarded by ancient people as a paradise that "directly leads to the throne of the emperor". It is also a sacred mountain where people worship and emperors offer sacrifices.

But now, he unexpectedly discovered a relic here that was far earlier than human civilization, and everything seemed to suddenly become mysterious.

This made Chen Xuan's curiosity reach its peak.

It's just the engraved content, but the system can't analyze it, and it doesn't know what strange species it describes.

If you want to understand all this, you may find the answer at the end of the cave.

Walking along the stone steps, without any other special changes, finally, Chen Xuan came to a huge and wide space.

It looks like a huge cave, but it is impossible to visually measure the size of the cave, and the height does not reach the top.

Even though the blue light is very strong, it still can't illuminate the entire space brightly. There are still dark shadows at the end of the field of vision, but looking at the outline, it looks like a stretch of rocks.

The stone steps under the feet continue to extend forward, and at the end they are connected to a well-repaired and very neat platform.

In addition, there are clusters of rocks.

The space on the platform is very spacious, even more magnificent than the lobby of the Times Tower Hotel that Chen Xuan had been to before.

There seemed to be three stone tablets standing in the center of the platform, and there was a stone platform in front of the stone tablet. There seemed to be a strange object on it, and the blue light was emitted from it.

Following the stone steps, Chen Xuan walked all the way to the platform. He really didn't know how this place was built. Looking at the various jagged rocks under his feet made him a little frightened.

In the end, Chen Xuan came to the stele, and finally saw clearly what was emitting the blue light on the stone platform.

This is a huge block, about two people tall, with many strange patterns on it, but it looks very illusory, as if it has no entity.

Originally, Chen Xuan thought that the source of light would be enough to illuminate the entrance of the cave, but once he got close, the light would be so strong that he couldn't keep his eyes open.

But although the light at this moment is very bright, it is not dazzling, and even gives him a very gentle feeling.

Closing his eyes and feeling it, Chen Xuan was sure that the thing in front of him summoned him.

Chen Xuan immediately used the "Movable Type Illustrated Book Module", wanting to scan to see what the origin of this thing in front of him was.

However, he couldn't turn on the scan.

How is this going?

Chen Xuan instinctively wanted to reach out and touch it, but hesitated for a moment, and withdrew his hand. He did not dare to act rashly without knowing the specific situation.

He looked at several steles again. The steles were about 5 meters high, and they were engraved with densely packed characters.

These words gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

He can recognize all the single radicals, and also the horizontal and vertical strokes, but he can recognize none of the characters combined.

For these steles, Chen Xuan tried to scan again.

The scan went smoothly this time.

------

Name: Ancient Stele

Characteristics: The time is unknown, judging by the writing style, it is far earlier than human civilization, and some information seems to be recorded in it.

------

Information, what information?
Just as doubts arose in Chen Xuan's mind, his consciousness suddenly became dark in an instant, and various grotesque symbols flashed quickly.

After an unknown amount of time, his consciousness finally recovered, but the scene in front of him changed drastically.

He was no longer in Dongji Mountain, and he came to a scene he had never seen before.

In the field of vision, there are towering giant trees everywhere, and there is no end in sight. All kinds of huge birds fly by, fierce beasts collide with each other, and there are also some aggregated stone buildings in a system, among which there are some Humans walked through it, and it seemed that it should be the settlement of ancient humans.

Intuition told him that this should be the earth in ancient times.

Were creatures in ancient times all grown so huge?
Chen Xuan was amazed by the size of these creatures.

Moreover, human civilization does not seem to be weak. Although it is a stone building, he seems to see some traces of mechanical operation.

But before he could take a closer look, the picture suddenly sped up.

Until a monstrous huge wave appeared, submerging all living beings, leaving only the trees standing still, this scene was obviously exactly the same as what Chen Xuan had seen before, except that there were no modern civilized high-rise buildings.

And a dark crack appeared in the sky at some point, as if it wanted to divide the entire sky into two.

At this moment, a blue stream of light flashed, as if it was about to crash into the crack.

But all the pictures ended here suddenly, and then Chen Xuan regained consciousness.

But his heart was shocked.

Judging from the picture seen just now, this flood actually broke out once in ancient times.

This means that human beings in the past also experienced the same disasters, but survived tenaciously, and developed to where they are today through the efforts of generations.

Could that blue streamer be related to the object in front of him?
And there is another very important question, if the flood once broke out, where did the water end up?
A bold idea suddenly came to Chen Xuan's mind.

Could it be that it has not disappeared and formed a vast ocean lake?

However, when Chen Xuan was immersed in deep thought, he didn't notice that a black shadow that had been motionless in the distance suddenly moved a little.
