# Chapter 1682: A Dream of Three Thousand Years
The reason he said he carried it back was because this stone carving was truly massive!
It was disc-shaped, crafted entirely from top-grade spirit material—Purple Emperor Copper!
Covered in mottled copper rust and claw marks of varying depths, one could tell at a glance that this stone carving had weathered countless storms and endured the vicissitudes of time!
An ancient aura rushed forth. Not only was it densely covered in Mayan hieroglyphs, but there were even exquisite carvings!
Everyone hurriedly gathered around, letting out exclamations of astonishment!
Jiangnan swallowed hard: "This isn't on the same level as those sad social media posts. Just the material alone is worth a pretty penny!"
Shanmiao rubbed her forehead: "Is the material the point? Hurry up and see what's recorded on it!"
Jiangnan quickly began examining it. The reason it was called a prophecy carving was precisely because it contained an almanac far beyond the era in which it was made!
The carving recorded events in concentric circles!
The closer to the center, the more distant the prophesied events!
The prophecy carving used one of the special calendars exclusive to Mayan civilization—the Tzolk'in calendar!
Also known as the divine calendar or ritual calendar, with 20 days in a month and 260 days in a year!
Different from the solar calendar used today, which has 365 days in a year!
Jiangnan scratched his head: (୧(·•᷄ࡇ•᷅) "It really is a prophecy. I need to convert the time!"
Then his gaze fell on the outermost circle. What was recorded here wasn't prophecy, but a brief summary of events that had already happened, like a diary!
After converting the time, it was about three thousand years ago, near the end of the First Spiritual Energy Revival!
"My name is Zhuoma, High Priestess of the Mayan Clan!"
"Spiritual clouds formed mist, giant beasts roared, gods walked among mortals, alien races ran rampant, and all living beings suffered!"
"Hua Xia's Jiang Fan led the heroes, subdued giant beasts, slew gods, exterminated alien races, fought enemies under the starry sky, shining like countless stars!"
"Overawing the Ten Thousand Races, not a single god dared set foot in the mortal world!"
Jiangnan's scalp tingled: ∑(°口°๑) "Damn! Jiang Fan! Jiang Fan again! Just how fierce was this guy?"
He carved a monument at the moon's core, startling the Starry Sky Races into creating the Ten Thousand Races Accord!
Forcing even the Bose Bodies not to dare set foot on Lan Xing? Kill any who came?
This wasn't from Jiang Fan's perspective, but from the Mayan High Priestess Zhuoma's perspective, recording everything that happened back then!
He truly was a figure that dazzled an entire era!
After Jiangnan translated it for everyone, they were also greatly shocked!
The stone carving recorded far more than that!
"After the war, the gods sealed the spirit at our clan's territory, and spiritual energy gradually faded! The era ended! The world became spiritless!"
"We sought Jiang Fan to unseal it, but he was nowhere to be found. Our clan was unwilling to accept this, not wanting the era to disappear! The entire clan entered the sealed spirit land, seeking a method to unseal it. A desperate last gamble!"
"But alas, human power was insufficient. After more than ten years of fruitless effort, we were ultimately buried here!"
"Things are unpredictable, and there are always regrets. No regrets for my original choice, even if wishes can't be fulfilled! With all my strength, I dreamed a thousand years, saw the future, and died without regret!"
Jiangnan slowly recited the contents of the stone carving!
Liu Mang shuddered: =͟͟͞͞(꒪﹏꒪●) "This Mayan High Priestess named Zhuoma actually has the same ability as Sister Zi Yuan?"
She could dream thousands of years into the future, while Zi Yuan could only dream about one or two weeks ahead. No wonder they called her Noob Yuan!
Zhong Yingxue's expression was solemn: "So at the end of the First Spiritual Energy Revival, there was also a period of universal spiritlessness?"
"Did the Bose Bodies use the Rainforest Maze to seal the spiritual energy of the First Revival?"
"They wanted to find Jiang Fan to unseal it, but he wasn't there. Then the Mayan Clan, unwilling to accept it, went into the maze as a clan to try to unseal it, and ended up trapped and dying inside?"
Jiangnan nodded heavily: "At that time, Jiang Fan should have already left Lan Xing and gone to the starry sky!"
"But what I can't figure out is what the Sacred Star is trying to do now! They were the ones who sealed the spiritual energy back then, and now they want to unseal it?"
"In their era, they made it spiritless! In ours, why are they constantly releasing spiritual energy? Does Igor have some kind of illness?"
Now it could be confirmed that the abnormal increase in spiritual energy concentration was related to the seal in the Rainforest Maze!
Had Vivian been tinkering for over a year here to unseal it?
Shanmiao asked curiously: (๑•̌～•̑)ˀ̣ˀ̣ "What's next? What did it write after that?"
What followed was the prophecy. In the second concentric circle, around two thousand years ago!
Zhuoma even prophesied that after the God-Slaying War, the world would once again become spiritless. She even mentioned the woman in white!
And even drew her!
But it was somewhat blurry, and many parts were scratched out by claw marks!
Jiangnan pointed to the carving of the woman. Although the drawing was a bit abstract, one look showed the woman wasn't wearing shoes—barefoot!
"This... couldn't it be that old woman Bai Kou?"
Going further, Zhuoma prophesied to a thousand years ago, the God-Slaying War of Yu Shen, and even drew the Godslayer Blade on it!
The nine six-pointed stars on it were all too familiar to Jiangnan!
But the carvings at the center were the richest. Seeing this, Jiangnan's expression stiffened!
"(ºДº‧̣̥̇)
Shanmiao asked curiously: "What about the prophecy at the center? What time is it?"
Jiangnan's face turned pale:
(｡･ˇ﹏ˇ･｡:) "This year! It's exactly this year we're in now, and not long until the New Year!"
"I calculated it three times, and it's all this year!"
Xia Yao looked afraid:
(☍﹏⁰。) "What does the prophecy say? I think what she drew looks a bit terrifying?"
Jiangnan read: "When the Blue Moon appears at night, the Spirit-Sealing Array opens! The collision of light and darkness! The interweaving of blood and fire, the carnival of the dead, the era will be rewritten at this moment!"
"The void is annihilated, the maze is destroyed, all things are lost! Awakening spirit is not auspicious, it is a great disaster..."
The carving below was abstract. Hanging in the sky was a Blue Moon!
Then a huge hole in the void devoured everything. Light and darkness collided, everything was chaotic!
It left people completely bewildered, but a sense of oppression rushed toward them!
Xia Yao swallowed: "Great disaster? A cataclysm? What's drawn here isn't the end of the world, is it? The sky is broken?"
Liu Mang also forced a laugh:
(￢ㅂ￢‧̣̥̇) "D-don't be nervous. Didn't the Mayans also predict the end of the world before? It didn't happen, right? It's not necessarily true!"
Jiangnan shook his head: "She dreamed of Bai Kou, the Godslayer Blade, and even the Blue Moon. An ancient person! A dream of three thousand years!"
"Everything she dreamed of happened one by one. Only this last one remains. I don't think it's false!"
At this moment, everyone's hearts sank to the bottom!
Yes! She even knew the moon would turn blue. Then what was this "great disaster" she spoke of?
Jiangnan's gaze flickered. The prophecy mentioned the Spirit-Sealing Array opening?
That meant the so-called Spirit-Sealing Array in the maze was still going to be activated by Vivian and the others?
If they wanted to stop it, they just had to prevent the Sacred Star from opening the array!
That was also the most effective method!
In that case, the things prophesied might not happen!
Jiangnan took a deep breath and grinned: "Don't panic! Don't forget why we came! We're here to cause trouble!"
"The Sacred Star wants to do something? We just need to stop them from doing it!"
"No one can clearly explain how the future works. Even Zi Yuan's dreams are fragmented and hard to understand!"
"Earlier it said I was dead, but it was a fake death. It said I cheated, but it might have been someone impersonating me. Who knows what this great disaster is really about?"
Shanmiao was still worried. She felt uneasy in her heart!
"What if it's true?"
Jiangnan smiled openly: "Then we change the future! Give it our all, and there'll be no regrets! What matters most is always this very second, not what the future holds!"
Looking at Jiangnan's smile, everyone's minds, which had been unsettled by the prophecy, gradually calmed down!
His smile had that kind of power, putting people at ease!
Just then, Jiangnan stuffed the prophecy carving into his alternate dimension, looking like a miser!
(๑¥₃¥๑) "I'll just keep it in my pocket for now. Let's hurry back and sleep. I'm really tired!"
With that, he teleported away without a trace!
Everyone went back to their rooms to sleep, while Zhong Yingxue and Xia Yao continued their internal competition!
But Jiangnan couldn't sleep at all. He went up to the rooftop alone, looking up at the Blue Moon in the sky, lost in thought!
He hadn't finished reading the last prophecy. There were still sixteen characters left unread. Since no one else knew Mayan hieroglyphs, Jiangnan was the only one who understood!
The remaining sixteen characters were:
"Corpses litter the fields, blood flows for a thousand miles, bones exposed and entrails trodden, no light to be seen!"
Jiangnan couldn't imagine what kind of utterly tragic scene that would be!
Maybe Zhuoma didn't know how to depict it either, which was why she drew it so chaotically!
Although he didn't know exactly what was happening, Jiangnan absolutely didn't want the events on the prophecy carving to come true!
He had to stop the opening of that Spirit-Sealing Array, no matter the cost!
Jiangnan's eyes were filled with determination!
Just then, Xiong Er's body emerged from the concrete floor next to him!
Seeing Jiangnan on the rooftop, he was startled, and asked in surprise:
(｡•～•｡｀) "Weren't you sleepy? Why aren't you sleeping?"
Jiangnan smiled: "Filled with love, afraid the mosquitoes won't have enough to eat, so I came out to feed them!"
Xiong Er's face darkened. Who would believe that? You're already bulletproof. If mosquitoes really came to bite you, they'd starve to death!
Jiangnan changed the subject: "What about you? Why aren't you sleeping? You're Starlight rank now, no need to roll up like us?"
Xiong Er sighed, lying on the wall looking toward the rainforest: "I'm thinking about Qiqi. It's been so long, and still no news!"
Jiangnan was taken aback, then smiled: "Missing her? Then go in and find her. Don't leave any regrets!"
Xiong Er was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up:
(｡✧ꇴ✧) "Brother Nan? Have we decided to enter the rainforest?"
Jiangnan said calmly: "From what I can see, entering is definitely necessary. It's just that we don't have enough information yet. If we go in without knowing what to do, so..."
