Chapter 782 Stone Platform Rune

Although Chen Ze was controlling the body of his clone, he still felt mental pain just now. He felt as if his internal organs were displaced.

The mysterious old man was not much better. His face was as pale as paper and his breath was disordered.

The two struggled to stand up, their eyes full of unwillingness.

They were almost able to touch the center of the statue's eyebrows.

The statue in the hall still exuded a strong pressure, and the light flashing on it seemed to laugh at their overestimation.

"Damn it, I shouldn't have believed your lies."

Chen Ze glared at the mysterious old man, his eyes burning with anger: "Old man, is this what you call weakness? I almost lost my life."

The mysterious old man's face was gloomy, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, "Humph, who would have thought that this statue would be so powerful. But this may not be its key point, it's just that our strength is not enough."

Chen Ze sneered: "Not enough strength? Aren't you all strong in the fusion realm? You still say that the strength is not enough? It must be that you didn't use your full strength."

Chen Ze did not bring up his cultivation level of the distraction realm at all, but instead blamed it.

The mysterious old man's eyes were wide open, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he actually cooperated with this guy.

The power he was talking about was not his own power, but the control of these runes.

"Boy, stop talking nonsense. How could I not try my best? Who is weaker? Everyone knows it."

"Old man, what's the point of saying this now? Let's think about how to deal with this statue!"

"Hmph, do you think I don't want to? This statue is so powerful, and we don't have enough control over those runes, so we can't do it at all."

The mysterious old man was silent for a while, and then continued: "Since fighting hard doesn't work, then we have to find another way. This statue must have its own operating rules.

Everything in the tower is also running according to fixed rules.

If we can find the rules, maybe we can find a way to crack it."

Chen Ze frowned slightly, and his eyes were cast on the statue that exuded a powerful pressure again. The statue was about to revive.

"Laws? That's easier said than done. We know nothing about this statue, so where can we find the laws?"

The mysterious old man fell into deep thought. After a moment, he slowly said, "The test just now was not completely ineffective. We can continue to start with the runes.

When we drew the runes before, the statue reacted most strongly.

This shows that there must be some connection between the runes we drew and the statue.

Take out the things you got before, and we will study them together. Maybe we can find the laws of the statue's operation."

The mysterious old man probably guessed that what Chen Ze got when he entered here must be related to the runes in the tower.

When he fought with Chen Ze before, Chen Ze could not draw those runes. He did not believe that Chen Ze suddenly realized it by himself.

It must be that before he came here, Chen Ze got something related to the tower runes.

When Chen Ze heard the mysterious old man's words, his eyes instantly became alert: "Old man, you want beauty. Why don't you take out the things you got? I can also study the rules from them."

The mysterious old man's face sank, "Boy, now we are in such a desperate situation. If we don't cooperate, we will all die without a burial place.

I can swear that I will never rob you of your things, but just study together to find a way to crack it."

Chen Ze remained unmoved. He was not a three-year-old child. How much money could the old man's oath be worth.

What's more, if he took out the ancient book and showed it to the old man, wouldn't it be equivalent to giving the ancient book to the old man for nothing?

Then what's the point of swearing or not? I've already seen it, so it doesn't make any sense to return it or not.

The mysterious old man saw that Chen Ze was unmoved, and he was very angry, but he could do nothing.

Even if he forced Chen Ze, it would be useless, and it might make the situation worse.

"Boy, you are so stubborn that it will only put us all in a desperate situation." The mysterious old man softened his tone and tried to persuade Chen Ze again.

"Think about it, if we can't find a way to crack it, this statue will wake up sooner or later, and we will all be wiped out by it. When that time comes, what's the use of what you have?"

Chen Ze's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a disdainful smile: "Old man, you don't have to waste your breath anymore, I won't take out the things, and you should take them out first."

The negotiation broke down.

Chen Ze no longer paid attention to the mysterious old man, but cast his eyes on the statue again, carefully observing the runes and light changes on it.

Seeing Chen Ze's firm attitude, the mysterious old man stopped talking, and the conflict between him and Chen Ze was destined to be irreconcilable.

He also re-examined the statue and thought about other possible ways to crack it.

As time passed, the atmosphere in the hall became more and more tense.

The pressure on the statue was still strong, making people breathless.

Although Chen Ze and the mysterious old man were trying to find a way to crack it, they still had no clue.

At this moment, a faint light suddenly flashed from the corner of the hall.

Chen Ze and the mysterious old man observed this change at the same time, and their eyes were instantly attracted to it.

Although the light was weak, it had a strange rhythm.

Chen Ze's heart moved, and he walked carefully in the direction of the light.

Seeing this, the mysterious old man followed closely.

As they approached, the light gradually became clearer.

An ancient stone platform appeared in front of them, with complex runes engraved on it, similar to the runes on the statue.

Although the timing of the appearance of the stone platform was too coincidental, they did not have time to delve into it, and just regarded it as the law of the tower's own operation.

After all, the tower's existence is to select the right inheritor, and it is impossible for there to be a completely unsolvable situation.

Chen Ze and the mysterious old man looked at each other, and both saw surprise in each other's eyes.

They began to carefully study the runes on the stone platform, trying to find clues related to the statue.

After a moment, Chen Ze spoke first: "Old man, could the runes on this stone platform be the key to cracking it?"

The mysterious old man pondered for a moment, then nodded, "It's possible, these runes are similar to the runes on the statue, but we can't be careless, it might be a trap."

Chen Ze snorted coldly, "It has come to this point, even if it is a trap, what can we do? Do we have any other choice?"

The mysterious old man narrowed his eyes slightly, "Boy, you are right, now we can only give it a try."

The two surrounded the stone platform and continued to study the runes on the stone platform with full concentration.

Chen Ze frowned. Although he had a photographic memory and a superb understanding, he had only been exposed to the mystery of the tower runes for a short time.

He could only feel the power contained in it, but failed to understand its meaning.

The mysterious old man whispered to himself, as if he was recalling something.

"Old man, do you see any clues?" Chen Ze asked when he saw the old man like this.

It was unclear whether the mysterious old man really didn't see anything or was deliberately hiding it.

He shook his head and said, "Not yet, but these runes must be related to the statue, but I haven't figured out the mystery yet. If I can combine it with what you got, I might be able to find something."

Chen Ze sneered in his heart when he heard this. It seemed that the old man had not given up on his plan.

He pretended not to understand the old man's meaning and said, "In this case, we have to speed up, otherwise when the statue wakes up completely, we will really have no chance."
