Shadow of Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 316 Super Evolution

The jade slip seemed to emit a mysterious golden glow, as if it were constantly calling out to An Xiaofeng.

The crystal shimmered with a soft blue light, and the two complemented each other, as if they were having a dialogue across time and space, or as if they were both waiting for the arrival of their destined one.

An Xiaofeng, in a stroke of inspiration, seized the opportunity to lunge forward as he was pushed to the ground, extending his bloodied fingertips toward the jade slip.

The mysterious energy that kept everyone out seemed to have no existence at all, and did not serve to block An Xiaofeng in the slightest.

The moment An Xiaofeng touched the jade slip, a slow-motion scene appeared, showing a golden current rapidly surging from her fingertips into the area near her brow.

At the same time, the camera gives a close-up of the surface of the jade slip—the fine runes are faintly visible in the golden light, and some of the patterns briefly show an arrangement of black and white dots similar to those in the Hetu Luoshu under the flickering firelight.

And as An Xiaofeng's heartbeat frequency flickered, she did not notice anything unusual due to fear and panic.

Not far away, the scarred man had already raised his gun and was pulling the trigger, intending to kill An Xiaofeng and use her life and blood as a sacrifice to break through the altar's defenses.

At the critical moment.

An Xiaofeng's pupils suddenly contracted, and the whole world seemed to slow down for her.

The scarred man's movements seemed to be slowed down infinitely, and the bullet's trajectory drew a red streak in the air.

She instinctively rolled to the side, the bullet grazing her ear and embedding itself in the stone pillar, but she was surprised to find that she could predict every tremor of the enemy's muscles.

"Damn it, how is this possible!" The scarred man's roar echoed in the enclosed space.

The 360° surround view shows An Xiaofeng moving through a hail of bullets.

Each time she dodged a bullet, ripples appeared in the surrounding space, and mysterious Bagua patterns would emerge on the stone slabs on the ground.

The runes on the surface of the jade slip flowed with golden light, and An Xiaofeng felt countless tiny electric currents coursing through his pineal gland between his eyebrows, yet his thoughts became increasingly clear.

When the scarred man raised his gun to fire again, An Xiaofeng had already sensed it and reacted accordingly.

She flashed like a ghost, appearing behind the scarred man, leaping into the air, and slamming her knee into the back of his neck.

The series of movements were executed in one go, so fluidly that it was astonishing, as if she had practiced countless times.

The entire tomb chamber instantly descended into chaos, with the gunshots of the thugs echoing deafeningly in the enclosed space.

Bullets flew through the tomb, sparks flying everywhere, but An Xiaofeng moved through the hail of bullets as if they were nothing.

Whenever danger approaches, she can always sense it in advance and avoid it.

She cleverly used the stone pillars and benches in the tomb as cover, constantly changing her position so that the villains' bullets all missed.

Taking advantage of the situation, An Xiaofeng knocked over the bronze lampstand, causing a fire. The flames, like a fierce fire serpent, quickly blocked the pursuers.

In the chaos, she gripped the jade slip tightly and ran desperately toward the tomb passage.

"Chase her! We can't let her escape with the baby!" the scarred man shouted hoarsely from behind, his voice filled with anger and resentment.

An Xiaofeng ran wildly through the tomb passage, with thugs hot on his heels.

Her heart was pounding and her breathing was rapid, but her will to survive gave her incredible speed and physical strength.

As they ran, the jade slip suddenly became scalding hot, as if it were alive.

An Xiaofeng felt a semi-transparent holographic map appear before his eyes, clearly marking the locations of all the mechanisms in the ancient tomb.

With the help of the holographic map displayed on the jade slip, she narrowly avoided the poisoned arrow traps and the collapsing stone slabs.

When An Xiaofeng finally broke out of the ancient tomb, the first rays of dawn pierced through the clouds and shone on her tired, pretty face. The light of the jade slip gradually dimmed, but An Xiaofeng knew that her life had been completely changed.

She gripped the jade slip tightly, leaving a burn mark on her palm, as if it were a testament to this nightmare, or the beginning of a new destiny: "The Triangle Society, I'll remember this debt."

The scene shifts, and An Xiaofeng stares at the global bounty poster on the computer screen, his brows furrowed.

In the photo, she looks disheveled, with messy hair and abrasions on her face, a stark contrast to the charge of "stealing ancient tomb treasures."

With a bounty of up to tens of millions of dollars, she instantly became a target for the entire world.

What terrified her even more was that the Triangle Society had obtained the "key to immortality," which was actually a "time bomb" that would destroy the Earth.

"We must stop them." An Xiaofeng murmured to herself, the jade slip in her arms slightly warm, as if responding to her determination.

Based on the residual energy fluctuations in the jade slip, she turned her attention to the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang—the flying apsaras hidden in the murals might be the key to unlocking the secrets of potential.

Under the blazing sun in Dunhuang, the intense sunlight poured down on the earth, as if trying to melt everything.

An Xiaofeng wore a baseball cap and sunglasses, blending into the bustling crowd of tourists, trying to hide his identity.

Her eyes were wary, and she was constantly watching her surroundings.

The jade slip vibrated continuously in her arms, as if it were an eager guide leading her to a certain grotto.

The moment she stepped into the cave, a mysterious aura enveloped her.

The cave was filled with a faint scent of incense, and the murals on the walls appeared even more mysterious and unpredictable under the dim light.

An Xiaofeng slowly walked towards the mural, her fingertips gently touching the ribbons of the flying goddess in the mural.

In that instant, ripples suddenly spread across the entire wall, like a stone being thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.

Then, golden runes appeared on the wall, and only she could see them, as if they were a unique code left for her by an ancient civilization.

“Form and spirit are one…” An Xiaofeng murmured the words of the Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic, trying to comprehend its mysteries.

Suddenly, a warm current surged through her body, as if an invisible force was flowing through her.

As the camera pans across the wall to show the flow of energy according to the meridian diagram in the mural, it provides a close-up shot—the emerging golden runes are not chaotic, but rather distributed according to the nine-square grid of the Luoshu.

To test her abilities, she whispered a shout that echoed through the cave. The next second, a stone bench in the corner of the cave was shattered, sending shards of stone flying everywhere.

In fact, "Kan Yi Gong" corresponds to the location where sound wave energy is concentrated, and "Li Jiu Gong" corresponds to the direction in which the stone bench is crushed.

However, An Xiaofeng was currently immersed in the power of his new ability and did not delve into the special rules of the rune arrangement.

The tourists were terrified by this sudden turn of events and scattered in panic.

Knowing she couldn't stay long, An Xiaofeng left Dunhuang overnight.

Following the guidance of the jade slip, she arrived at Sanxingdui, where more secrets about ancient civilizations were hidden.

In the shadow of the Sanxingdui bronze tree, a montage edit shows An Xiaofeng stimulating the potential of her pineal gland:
She gazed at the bronze sacred tree, and the pages of the ancient book turned automatically.

When you use your hands to deduce the five elements' mutual generation and restraint on the sand table, the sand grains not only form an energy cycle diagram, but also spontaneously arrange themselves into a double helix shape at a certain moment, and then return to the normal trajectory in an instant.

With eyes closed, I received ancient memories transmitted through the bronze mask, including images of alien beings injecting luminous chain-like substances into human genes. The helical structure of the chain-like substances was highly similar to DNA.
