“The Celestial Stele?

What is that?” Gu Chen asked curiously.

Seeing this, Gu Qingyan smiled mysteriously and said that Gu Chen would understand once they arrived.

Afterward, they left the edge of the island and headed deeper inland.

Fortunately, the location of the Celestial Stele was on the periphery.

There were no dangers along the way, and it did not take long to reach the destination.

“Is this what you all refer to as the Celestial Stele?”

At that ti, Gu Chen looked at the vast ice field not far away where a giant stele stood erect, desolate and ancient, its entire body imbued with an aura of ti’s sedint, enduring the eroding of the ages, indestructible and undying, as if it had existed here since ti immorial.

Gu Chen gazed at the so-called Celestial Stele and felt the extraordinary aura it exuded, a sense of shock inevitably rose from the depths of his heart.

“The Celestial Stele is estimated to have possibly existed since the birth of the ice island,” Gu Qingyan introduced at that mont.

“Has it existed for so long?!” Gu Chen’s pupils shrank sharply upon hearing this.

It was known that the ice island possibly originated from an ancient civilization epoch, not just a matter of millions or tens of millions of years from the present, but an incomprehensibly long period of ti.

And what’s more, records of the civilizations from before the ancient epoch were exceedingly rare, with only sporadic bits and pieces, making it difficult for people to know what had occurred that led to the destruction of an epoch.

“What is this Celestial Stele used for?” Gu Chen could not help but ask.

Gu Qingyan said, “The Celestial Stele is used to detect the talents, potentials, combat capabilities, and other aspects of beings, and it ultimately provides a ranking based on the comprehensive assessnt.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen nodded slightly, a hint of interest beginning to form in his mind.

Lu Mingyue and the other Frost Soul Sect disciples occasionally glanced over at Gu Chen, evidently having suggested coming here out of curiosity about Gu Chen, wanting to see to what degree he could reach on the Celestial Stele.

At this point, Gu Qingyan continued, “There are three thousand nas on the Celestial Stele, each of whom is an earth-shattering figure of their ti, and many are speculated to be left by the mightiest beings.”

“Is it really so amazing?” A trace of astonishnt flickered in Gu Chen’s eyes.

The Celestial Stele could assess beings’ talent, potential, and combat capability, and after a comprehensive evaluation, it would give a ranking.

Over the endless years, many beings had made attempts, but in the end, only three thousand nas could remain on it.

Being originated from before the ancient epoch implied that many of the beings listed belonged to that period.

At the very least, since the ancient tis, the founder of the Frost Soul Sect was one who discovered the ice island.

Subsequently, the people moved closer and clearly saw those ancient and vigorous nas on the Celestial Stele.

“Ice Emperor?” At that mont, Gu Chen looked from the top downwards and noticed the na that ranked first on the Celestial Stele, shining the brightest, radiating with more brilliance than the sun itself, countless tis more dazzling.

“Who is this?” Gu Chen asked, not understanding how soone ranked first on the Celestial Stele could be so extraordinary, knowing that the majority of the inscriptions were marks left by the mightiest beings.

To stand above all the mightiest beings, this Ice Emperor must be truly exceptional.

Gu Qingyan wore a complex expression, solemnity appearing in her beautiful eyes as she said, “The Ice Emperor, an extraordinarily great existence, originates from a dazzling civilization of the ancient past, and it’s said that there’s a very high possibility that he was the master of this ice island.

His cultivation reached heaven and earth, and he was a true grand magus, rarely seen throughout history.

In that epoch, he stood tall among his peers, as one of the strongest.”

Furthermore, she inford Gu Chen that all this was handed down by the founder of the Frost Soul Sect, and the veracity was very high.

“I see, no wonder he ‘stood above the masses to overlook all mountains small’,” Gu Chen exclaid.

For such a great being to ascend to the pinnacle and stand atop the Celestial Stele was indeed to be expected.

Then, Gu Chen continued to look down and saw the traces of many ancients.

Basically, those ranked in the top ten all belonged to the period before ancient tis and not the recent past few epochs.

“Ice Spirit Daoist?” At this ti, Gu Chen saw a na ranked at the ninety-eighth position.

“This is the founder of our Frost Soul Sect,” Gu Qingyan explained.

Gu Chen understood, being ranked ninety-eighth was enough to underscore the extraordinariness of the Frost Soul Sect’s founder.

After all, this Celestial Stele originated from the epoch of the ancient civilization, which was said to have been an extrely prosperous ti for cultivating civilization, with nurous powerful beings erging, many sovereigns, and prodigies contending for supremacy.

Back then, according to the sporadic records found by the founder of the Frost Soul Sect, the ice island was quite extraordinary, and many people attempted to leave their nas on the Celestial Stele.

Under such circumstances, to be ranked ninety-eighth and enter the top one hundred, the significance was already incredibly high.

At this mont, as Gu Chen looked further down, he saw the na of Mu Han, the current Sect Leader of the Frost Soul Sect, exactly at the one hundredth position, just below the rank of the Sect’s founder.

“My master also ca here when he was young and left his na on the Celestial Stele,” Gu Qingyan said with a hint of pride.

Since the Frost Soul Sect took control of the ice island, every three thousand years, they would send soone here.

The Celestial Stele was an essential path for them, and so had left their nas upon it for future generations to look up to, although not many had done so.
