"Master, this is it." Xiao Hei stood in front of the door to the stone chamber, looking at Bai Li Hong Zhuang.
Bai Li Hong Zhuang glanced at the stone chamber and realized that it was right next to the chamber where the "Summoning Demon Scripture" was placed.
"Creak."
Bai Li Hong Zhuang slowly pushed open the door to the stone chamber. As Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai had said, the previously closed door was now open.
As the door to the stone chamber opened, Bai Li Hong Zhuang saw the scene inside and was filled with shock and astonishment. She stared in disbelief at what she saw before her.
"How is this possible?" Bai Li Hong Zhuang muttered to herself, finding it hard to believe what she was seeing.
Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai also widened their eyes. "Holy crap, am I seeing things?"
"There's actually someone in here. Are they playing a trick on us?"
Even Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai, who were knowledgeable and experienced, couldn't help but burst out with curses. The language they used was necessary to express the shock they felt.
The stone chamber was quite spacious, and an old man with silver hair was busy inside, constantly moving his hands. On a large desk, there were various materials and tools.
The old man had a kind and benevolent appearance, with a gentle and serene expression that gave a sense of tranquility.
However, the old man seemed to be completely oblivious to Bai Li Hong Zhuang and the others. He continued his actions without responding, displaying the grace and skill of a master, flawlessly and naturally.
As Bai Li Hong Zhuang saw the tools and materials on the desk, she immediately recognized that the old man was practicing the art of inscriptions.
Inscription art was a remarkable skill, similar to alchemy, and provided great assistance to cultivators. While alchemy was used for self-cultivation, inscription art was used for external support, such as inscribing runes onto weapons to greatly enhance their power.
Compared to esteemed alchemists, inscriptionists were even rarer, and they were highly sought after by everyone. Inscription art also had strict requirements on spiritual power, meticulousness, and patience, making it inaccessible to ordinary people.
In her previous life, Bai Li Hong Zhuang had also come into contact with inscriptionists and held great respect for this profession. However, her family elders were skilled in alchemy, not inscription art, so she had always focused her experiences on alchemy.
Unexpectedly, she encountered an inscriptionist within the Chaos Ring. She couldn't claim to have a deep understanding of inscription art, but from the natural and flawless drawings of this old man, she was certain that his skill in inscription art must be extremely advanced.
He was undoubtedly at the level of a grandmaster. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to effortlessly depict such intricate inscriptions.
"Elder." Bai Li Hong Zhuang called out slowly.
However, the old man did not respond at all. Bai Li Hong Zhuang couldn't help but call out again, "Elder."
Still, the old man remained unresponsive, as if he hadn't heard Bai Li Hong Zhuang's voice.
"What's going on? Why is he ignoring us?" Xiao Hei looked perplexed. Despite the old man's extraordinary appearance, he shouldn't be ignoring them, right?
