This stone slab has always been regarded as a holy artifact by the tribe, and they perform rituals to worship it during major festivals.

The stone slab had always remained silent, without any anomaly.

But when the tribe faced a life-or-death crisis, the slab started to tremble and emit a dazzling light.

The people of the tribe couldn't understand what was happening, they just kept worshiping the stone slab.

Soon after, the people of the tribe obtained new power from the stone slab, and with this new power, they drove away the invading demons, reclaiming their land.

In the last mural, a group of small figures sing and dance in front of the stone slab, celebrating their victory.

After Herag finished viewing the mural, he looked back and realized he had walked quite a distance.

This mural is very long, and painting it must have taken a lot of time.

Judging from the style and various strokes of the mural, it was all drawn by the same person.

Herag's talent spell originates from the stone slab depicted in the mural, so he naturally knows that the power within the stone slab is actually the Great Dark Heaven, this talent spell.

The tribe in the mural became the strongest tribe on that land by relying on the Great Dark Heaven, flourishing for many years.

Herag is unclear what the demon that appeared later represents; he speculates it might be some demons from elsewhere or possibly entities from another plane.

But regardless of where they came from, it's apparent that these demons possess immense power, capable of defeating the tribe that practiced the Great Dark Heaven.

Herag knows this does not imply that the Great Dark Heaven talent spell is ineffective. The strength of the Great Dark Heaven completely depends on how strong the Bloodline Power you absorb is.

He was lucky enough to absorb the Thunder God Ancestral Bloodline Power.

The people in the tribe are different; they usually absorb Bloodline Power from fierce beasts, like tigers and mammoths.

The power of these beasts is naturally limited, and while the tribe could rule that land with this power, dealing with higher-level forces would be somewhat ill-equipped.

Because the mural is too crude and simple, often only a few strokes tell a whole story.

Herag has no way to speculate to what level the tribe's power developed, nor does he know the power levels of those so-called demons.

Moreover, from the mural, it seems the era the tribe existed in was extremely ancient, and the power systems could very well be different from the present.

What Herag is pondering is what new power the tribe gained from the stone slab that made their people so much stronger.

Herag glanced at his space ring; the stone slab lay quietly within it at this moment.

Because the passage is too narrow, there was nowhere to place the stone slab even if he took it out, so Herag didn't try to take it out.

At least for now, the stone slab shows no signs of activity and is the same as before.

Herag suspects there might be information on the stone slab that even Shenlan hasn't scanned, causing some information to be missed.

Another possibility is that the stone slab indeed does not have the kind of power depicted in the murals, possibly requiring certain conditions to trigger.

Herag had Shenlan record all these murals, and while doing so, he re-examined the mural once again, discovering nothing new.

After looking at the mural again, he continued forward to see if there were any new discoveries further on.

The passage beyond the mural indeed changed significantly, becoming taller and wider.

Herag originally had to stoop to move forward, but after walking a while, he could stand upright comfortably.

Seeing there was enough space, Herag took out the stone slab from his space ring.

The stone slab looked exactly the same as when he first saw it, with no alterations, standing quietly in the middle of the passage.

Herag could now read the content on the stone slab normally, unlike the dizziness he felt on his first encounter.

He didn't discern anything particularly special after looking for a while, and there was no special reaction from the slab here either.

After observing for a while, Herag placed the stone slab back into his space ring.

He stored the stone slab and proceeded forward.

The passage grew taller and wider, and after covering a certain distance, it no longer resembled a passage, but rather seemed to Herag like a huge palace.

Herag's footsteps echoed through the space as he moved, highlighting its emptiness.

Ahead was a massive plaza, with bonfires burning in every corner.

There was no visible wood fueling these fires.

As Herag approached to feel them, he confirmed they were real flames with warmth.

At this plaza, the passage came to a definitive end; there was no path onward.

This plaza resembled the one in the Valley Town's cave, with a similar overall structure and appearance.

The only difference was the absence of a stone slab at the center of this plaza.

Herag thought for a moment and prepared to take out the stone slab to see if it would have any effect.

In that instant, the stone slab inside the space ring began to tremble softly.

Noting the stone slab's action, Herag was about to take it out when he noticed an anomaly occurring on the plaza ahead.

A stone slab's phantom appeared in the center of the plaza, gradually solidifying.

Moments later, the phantom fully materialized into a real stone slab.

Cautiously approaching, Herag glanced at the stone slab and immediately felt a sensation of vertigo.

He quickly realized that the contents on this stone slab were beyond his current ability to read.

With just a quick glance, Herag could already conclude that the stone slab before him was entirely different from the one in his space ring.

He was somewhat curious about what the stone slab contained.

The first stone slab recorded the Great Dark Heaven talent spell; surely, the content on this second slab would be no less significant.

Since Herag is a Level 1 Wizard, and even with his Spiritual Power, he couldn't read the contents, indicating that the second stone slab contained at least second-level spells.

"Shenlan, scan and record the contents on this stone slab."

Unable to read the stone slab's contents for now, Herag had to have Shenlan record the information.

Herag sensed that the content on this stone slab could very likely be the new power he just saw depicted on the mural; the people of the tribe relied on this new power to drive out the invading demons.

After Shenlan completed the scan and record, Herag, like before, planned to put the stone slab directly into his space ring and take it along.

The last time, he had to loosen the soil around the slab, but now it's not necessary.

Holding the stone slab, Herag used some force and pulled the slab out from the ground, then stored it in the space ring.
