Chapter 1679: 1679: The Stone Figure of Immortal Stone City
Chapter 1679: Chapter 1679:ribulation away from ascending to become an Immortal, was already surrounded by auspicious light, divine brilliance, hinting at some Immortal attributes. It is later rumored that the expert successfully crossed the Ninefold Heavy Tribulations and ascended to become an Immortal, becoming a member of the Immortal Realm.
To commemorate the Immortal who saved their lives, the fishing village’s villagers carved a lifelike stone figure ten feet tall based on the person’s appearance, placing it in the village center.
What was amazing was that since the stone man was placed in the village, no Sea Beast dared to invade the village again.
In the tens of thousands of years since, the stone man became a landmark of the fishing village, attracting many strong individuals to view its majestic posture; some Thunder Tribulation experts even came to pay respects, hoping to draw some Immortal Qi, to ensure their own safe passage through the terrifying Thunder Tribulations.
Over time, more Martial Artists moved here, expanding the size of the fishing village until it gradually became today’s small city with a population of tens of thousands.
And that stone figure has always remained at the center of Immortal Stone City.
Over the tens of thousands of years, despite the constant erosion by the sea breeze, because it was maintained, the stone man appeared vivid, as if newly sculpted.
In a manor closest to the stone figure, resided a mysterious and powerful family.
The ancestors of that family are said to have moved here as soon as the stone figure was carved, becoming its maintainers and guardians, and succeeding generations have continuously guarded the stone statue, allowing none to damage it.
By the current generation, that family has branched out with many members, although the other family members moved away, leaving only a family of four to guard the place.
The family of four consists of a middle-aged couple and their two children.
The middle-aged couple was around fifty years old, and their children, both in their twenties, were outstanding in appearance and had an extraordinary aura.
On the surface, the family of four appeared as ordinary people, but only true strong experts knew that they were formidable cultivators.
The middle-aged couple both had Thunder Tribulation three-layer cultivation level. Together, their strength increased severalfold, capable of countering a Thunder Tribulation four-layer expert.
Even their children, both merely twenty years of age, had reached Soul Severing perfection, a talent that was astonishing.
Their family’s cultivation techniques and martial arts techniques were said to be incredibly profound and unique, likely due to some fortuitous chance they had encountered.
Some Thunder Tribulation experts once tried to covet their cultivation techniques and martial arts but were met with the family’s united attack, ending up in a fate of utter obliteration.
Since then, no one dared to provoke the family living closest to the stone figure, and the manor became the most peaceful and serene place in all of Immortal Stone City.
That morning, the side door of the manor opened, and a woman in a fire-red dress, with a slender waist, elegantly walked out, sitting down at the stone table under a willow tree on the eastern side of the courtyard, cupping her chin in her hands, staring blankly at the stone statue not far away.
The woman in the red dress had eyebrows like jade feathers, eyes like autumn water, lips as red as cherries, and an innate charm between her eyebrows, possessing unparalleled beauty.
However, the expression on the woman in the red dress carried a deep melancholy that seemed impossible to dissipate, as if she hadn’t been truly happy for a long time.
The woman in the red dress gazed at the stone man’s face nearby, observing the familiar, handsome features, muttering to herself, “This stone man bears a faint resemblance to Fang Bai…”
“Sister Chenyu, out here looking at the stone man again?”
At this moment, a woman in blue clothes, about the same age as the woman in red, walked out briskly, sitting next to the red-dressed woman named “Chenyu.”
