What Long Chen didn't expect was that the inscription actually bore the name of Great Brahma Heaven, recording some of his deeds.
Although he couldn't understand the second generation's immortal text, the third generation took up about half the space. Reading only the third generation's text wouldn't grasp the overall content, but it was clear that this was a monument about the merits of the Great Brahma Heaven.
"Damn it, you're a traitor who betrays your teacher and ancestors, and you still erect a monument to merit?" Do you want to order Bilian? Long Chen was furious. This was just too despicable.
"Master Long Chen, please answer quickly, or you will be eliminated." Just as Long Chen was filled with shock and anxiety, that aged voice came through, reminding him.
Long Chen took a deep breath. Facing the gloating looks of the countless people around him, he smiled calmly and said, "
This is a monument about the merits of Great Brahma, recording some of his deeds from his youth."
"Huh?"
Just as Long Chen finished speaking, a surprised voice came from afar. Long Chen saw it was an elderly man in blue robes with a face full of wrinkles, staring at Long Chen in shock. When Long Chen looked at him, his expression returned to shock, as if nothing had happened.
"Very good, keep going."
That aged voice turned everyone's faces from schadenfreude into shock. Long Chen actually knew the second-generation Jiuli Immortal Wen—how could that be?
Keep going, my ass. He simply couldn't read it. Translating it would definitely be wrong. Long Chen braced himself, pretending to be confident as he said:
"In the seventh year of Tianqi, in the year of Guichou, above the divine blade, a youth ascended to the Ninth Heaven ...."
"It must be deciphered in plain language." The voice reminded him.
Long Chen nodded and said, "It's just that during the Tianqi era of the mythological era, there was a particularly unique person who emerged. Young and successful, it was like dancing on a sword, his awesome brilliance soaring to the heavens, full of charisma."
When he first debuted, he was born with divine strength and wielded two big dad wielding ... Hmm, sorry to see wrong, it's two big axes. "
Long Chen translated the first sentence correctly, because it was the third-generation Jiuli Immortal Text. The following section was all second-generation Immortal Text, which Long Chen didn't recognize at all. He just pointed at the words and made things up, but his expression was focused and
serious:
"Wherever the great axe passed, no one could stop it. By chance, I obtained a purple-gold gourd. That guy became even more formidable, striking fear into the enemy's fear." Shorts fluttered wildly.
Later, after attaining enlightenment, he split the gourd in two, burying one half underground to absorb the essence of heaven and earth, and carrying the other half while traveling the world.
Half a gourd was called a ladle; after gaining fame and fortune, he was called the world's number one gourd guest. From then on, gourds traveled everywhere in the east, south, west, and north, through spring, summer, autumn, and winter... "Oh no!"
Long Chen was spouting nonsense as he was spitting when suddenly the divine pillar beneath him suddenly sank downward, and Long Chen fell straight down.
The divine pillar beneath Long Chen was only one foot above the ground. Long Chen was startled and nearly eliminated.
"You're talking nonsense, angering the debate platform, and you're demoted nine levels. You only have one chance now—take care of yourself." The aged voice said.
Normally, if someone answered a wrong question, they would be demoted one foot as punishment, but Long Chen deliberately made up the story and ignored the authority of the Divine Dao Platform, resulting in a direct downgrade of nine levels—just one step away from being eliminated.
It turned out the Divine Dao Platform had its own artifact spirit. Long Chen spouted such nonsense, disregarding the Divine Dao Conference, and was severely punished in an instant. This was not man-made, but rather the punishment imposed on Long Chen by the Divine Dao Platform.
"Hahaha, serves you right, that's great."
"I knew it, a kid still wet up to tears, how could he possibly know the second generation Xianwen?"
"So nice, so satisfying. Hopefully someone will come up and just knock him out, making him the first to be eliminated."
For a moment, countless people in the audience burst into laughter. Long Chen was being punished, and they were so excited they almost jumped up.
Luo Bing, Luo Ning, and the others looked at each other. At first, seeing Long Chen so serious, they thought he really knew, but it turned out it was all just making things up.
"Really good,"
Bai Shishi said calmly, though it was unclear whether it was mockery or praise, but probably mostly the former.
Long Chen had just been punished when someone answered in his place—it was the old man who had previously spoken in surprise.
The old man looked at the divine stele and calmly deciphered it. It turned out the stele recorded the story of the Great Brahma Heaven's youth, falling into the Fire Domain, being surrounded by an evil dragon, comprehending the Dao in the Fire Domain, and slaying the fire dragon. There was no such thing as a great axe, gourd, or ladle.
The old man deciphered it with remarkable fluency, drawing rounds of applause and cheers for his erudition.
Someone in the audience pointed at Long Chen and cursed, "See? This is a true mentor—mature and steady, a role model. Look at yourself!" The
first person cursed, and someone immediately added, "A barely mature kid dares to call himself a mentor? You've completely disgraced Lingxiao Academy." "
If I were you, I'd just run my head against this altar. How could you still have the face to live?"
"No, dying on the altar is a desecration of it. You'd better just find a deserted cesspit and drown yourself. You're just garbage like crap—that's your true destination."
For a moment, countless people pointed at Long Chen and cursed, spitting wildly, as if they wanted to curse him to death.
"Crack, crack, crack... At
that moment, the divine pillar beneath the old man slowly rose. The old man smiled faintly and looked at Long Chen kindly, saying,
"Young man, you need to keep a low profile. Pretend you know what you know, don't know what you don't. Pretending to be rich is pointless—after all, you're not fat."
"Wait, I suspect this old man is cheating." Long Chen suddenly shouted loudly.
Long Chen's words immediately drew endless curses from the audience, but Long Chen ignored them and continued:
"Senior Debate, I know you're here. I apologize for my previous behavior. Before, I didn't respect you enough."
But now I want to report this shameless old guy for cheating. Please highlight the third and fifth sentences and have him translate them. Long
Chen's words shocked everyone. Long Chen was actually talking to the Divine Dao Platform—was he crazy? It seems the Forum never communicates with the outside world.
"Buzz!"
What happened next was a shocking scene: on the divine stele, a line of writing really lit up—it was the very line Long Chen had mentioned.
"Senior Debate Elder, ..."
At that moment, the powerful figure who had presided over the entire conference but had not shown his face spoke in surprise.
"Buzz"—
at that moment, a line of large characters appeared on the Divine Way: "Decode."
The Divine Platform actually agreed to Long Chen's request, ignoring the man and directly letting the old man decipher it.
The old man's expression changed instantly, sweat streaming down his forehead. For a moment, the entire room fell silent, because everyone could tell something was wrong.
"Could it be... Did he really cheat? Luo Bing looked at the old man in shock, then glanced at the confident Long Chen.
"Old man, come on, you're the real fat guy. Please start your performance." Long Chen looked at the old man with a sinister smile and said.
