Chapter 39 It Is Asking You to Help It Open the Coffin!

Zhou Cheng asked in surprise, "Brother Xuan, is this really a divine endowment?"

Zhang Xuan nodded, a glint of anticipation flashing in his eyes: "It looks very much like it!"

"Don't disturb him. Let's wait and see what happens."

"Perhaps the information from this divine endowment can save you all!"

From his perspective, the so-called divine endowment was not some mysterious ability to receive information from the heavens as people imagined!

Instead, it was more like after the fruit of the Nine-Headed Snake Cypress entered the body, it triggered certain changes in the brain, allowing it to receive information that ordinary people could not pick up.

Just like human ears, which can only perceive sound waves in the frequency band between twenty hertz and twenty thousand hertz.

If it is below twenty or above twenty thousand, the human ear cannot hear it.

However, after consuming the fruit, the body undergoes a certain change and enters an abnormal state. At this time, it can receive information that cannot be received in a normal state!

Clearly, however, this abnormal state cannot last too long.

Only by entering the ancient tomb and consuming the fruit could one find the hidden resting place of the coffin!

This should be a type of mechanism, yet it was shockingly ingenious and mysterious!

Of course, this was merely his speculation based on the information currently available to him.

As for whether it was truly the case, they would have to wait and see.

After he finished speaking, the three people opposite him indeed fell silent.

The half a million viewers in the livestream were also witnessing the climax at this moment.

Although Zhang Xuan had just explained the method of acquiring the divine endowment, they still did not understand the underlying principles.

In their view, it felt more like some kind of power originating from the gods.

Therefore, they grew even more expectant regarding Terry's strange condition at the moment.

"Those four look like they're goners!"

"Can the divine endowment save them? I have my doubts!"

"Brother Xuan hasn't explained the first three sentences yet. Why not take this opportunity to explain them?"

Just as the bullet comments were buzzing with discussion, a bizarre scene unfolded within the camera frame.

Those vines seemed to be guided by some unseen force, wrapping around the four of them and slowly lowering them downward.

Their landing spot ultimately stopped right in front of the bronze coffin!

The vines unraveled from the four figures like pulling silk from a cocoon.

Leaving behind only three dumbfounded men, along with half a million viewers in the livestream!

"What is going on?"

"Has this tree turned into a spirit?"

"Why bring people right in front of the coffin? Is this some kind of hint?"

"Damn, this is so freaking eerie!"

Zhang Xuan took a sharp breath, a look of shock flashing in his gaze, while a bright flash suddenly pierced through his complex expression!

This feeling felt somewhat familiar...

"Brothers, something major is about to happen!"

Inside the ancient tomb.

Zhou Zeyiyi shifted his astonished gaze away from the bronze coffin and slowly turned it toward Terry, whose eyes still remained vacant.

Although the vines had detached from their bodies, they were still swaying above their heads like a cluster of pythons.

It seemed that at the slightest hint of trouble, they would coil around them once more at any moment.

Zhou Cheng could no longer hold back either: "Uncle Tai... can you hear me?"

"Uncle Tai?"

He called out twice in succession.

Then he suddenly noticed beads of sweat pouring down Terry's forehead as his vacant gaze finally regained its focus!

The three of them instantly tensed up, staring fixedly at Terry.

Terry's lips were livid, and after trembling for a few moments, he subconsciously took a few steps backward, pointing a trembling finger in terror at the bronze coffin in front of him!

"The thing inside... is telling me to let it out."

The expressions of the three men changed drastically!

Even Zhou Zeyiyi sucked in a sharp breath of shock: "It spoke to you?"

Terry nodded in terror: "Yeah!"

Zhou Zeyiyi's expression shifted violently, and he too subconsciously took a step back.

The tall and thin man, however, asked, "Is it male or female?"

Terry was slightly taken aback and shook his head: "I don't know..."

"I only know it told us to open the coffin, or else we'll all die here."

The faces of the three turned instantly pale.

At that very moment, Zhang Xuan's voice rang out: "Sure enough..."

Inside the livestream, Zhang Xuan's expression had returned to calm, though a hint of lingering excitement remained between his brows.

"Brother Xuan, are we really going to open the coffin?"

Zhang Xuan rolled his eyes: "Why are you asking me this question again?"

"Didn't your Uncle Tai just say so? The thing inside is warning him that if you don't open the coffin, all of you will be sucked into dried meat by the man-eating tree!"

He shrugged: "It seems you don't have a choice, do you!"

Zhou Cheng took a deep breath: "Brother Xuan, I understand!"

"Since that's the case, let's open it."

"We've already opened coffins all the way here anyway, one more won't hurt."

Zhang Xuan nodded.

Just as he waited for them to begin, however, Zhou Zeyiyi suddenly stopped them. His voice, filled with confusion and a trace of fear, echoed in the livestream: "Little Brother Zhang..."

Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes: "Speak!"

Zhou Zeyiyi: "If the voice Terry heard is indeed the divine endowment..."

"Then this 'heaven' isn't actually the heavens above..."

"It's the thing inside the coffin!"

"...Then it..."

"Is it human or ghost?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the sound of several tomb raiders sharply inhaling breath echoed in the livestream.

The viewers in the livestream were also utterly shocked!

Zhang Xuan blinked: "No wonder Third Master managed to become a faction leader."

"His brain is simply calmer than an ordinary person's!"

He took a slight breath: "You guessed right!"

"The divine endowment is not the so-called ability to listen to decrees sent down by the heavens."

"Rather, it grants you the ability to break through the five senses of ordinary people and receive information outside the frequency band of those five senses!"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only did Zhou Zeyiyi emit a gasp of astonishment, but the bullet comments in the livestream also exploded.

"Holy shit, my scalp is tingling!"

"If it were divine power, I wouldn't feel much, but the streamer explaining it in such concrete terms is giving me total goosebumps!"

"The ability to receive information outside the frequency band of the five senses... is this a superpower?"

"This feels so real. If I eat the fruit, can I get this ability too?"

Watching the bullet comments, Zhang Xuan continued, "Actually, this ability isn't hard to understand. Take infrasound and ultrasound, for example—humans cannot receive the information carried within these sound waves!"

"But most animals can!"

"Think back and recall if you've ever had an experience like this."

"For instance, late at night, you're at home watching a horror movie. There's no one else around, just the dog you raised keeping you company."

"After finishing the horror movie, you feel a bit scared, so you head back to your bedroom to sleep."

"Yet your dog perks up its ears, stares straight out the window with unblinking eyes, and emits weird noises from its throat!"

"You, however, can't see anything, nor can you hear any unusual sounds."

"But you can't help feeling that the dog's ears, or even its eyes, must have seen something you couldn't."

"Compared to you, that dog possesses the ability of a divine endowment!"

Bullet comments: "????"

"If the streamer explains it like that, I get it, but it still gives me the chills!"

"Who watches a horror movie alone at night..."

"The streamer successfully triggered my horror memories. Damn it, I experienced that once. That dumb dog kept barking at the bathroom, and it scared me so much I couldn't sleep all night!"

"The streamer can explain even a divine endowment so clearly and thoroughly. Absolutely awesome!"

"..."

Zhou Zeyiyi's slightly relaxed voice sounded: "So that's how it is..."

"Then I understand!"

Zhang Xuan nodded, a glint flashing in his eyes: "Then do you understand whether it's human or ghost?"
