Genesis Stone Tablet

The Genesis Stone Tablet is a primordial stele born with the native Xuanhuang Realm and capable of recording events within that original world. Its bond grants its bearer existence alongside heaven and earth, but the benefit is also an exhausting, effectively endless burden that cannot be treated as ordinary ownership (Chapters 865–867).

History

Senior Stone Tablet’s burden

The scholar known as Senior Stone Tablet explains that the Genesis Stone Tablet automatically records even trivial events in Xuanhuang and allows him to persist with the world. Others have tried to seize the supreme treasure, yet no one succeeds, and the bearer himself longs to sever the bond. He later vanishes through the Fishing Pond, apparently achieving that release (Chapters 865–867, 971–975).

Reweaving after the bearer disappears

Because the Tablet embodies laws of Xuanhuang itself, the world begins re-creating it after Senior Stone Tablet’s disappearance. Li Fan recognizes the forming treasure but refuses direct fusion: even a clone may be mentally reshaped by such a bond, and the next bearer would carry its information for an immeasurable span (Chapter 975).

Transformation into the Genesis Chronicle

Li Fan uses Extracting Threads on Sima Changkong and connects the resulting bloodline chronicle to the nearly reformed Tablet. The bluish-gray stele draws in the threads, while Sima does not visibly reappear. It then becomes a stone book called the Genesis Chronicle, whose blood-red historical river can be viewed only at extreme cost. Li Fan fixes protective formations around it and leaves Tianyang as guardian, warning him not to look inside (Chapters 975–977).

Description and function

The Genesis Stone Tablet is an ancient bluish-gray stele that appears outwardly unremarkable. It is not merely a database placed in Xuanhuang: the world reweaves it after removal because it manifests part of the realm’s own laws. The transformed Genesis Chronicle is a stone book emitting faint golden-red light before concealing itself from ordinary perception (Chapters 865–867, 975–976).

Its contents appear as a vast blood-red river filled with rapidly changing historical images. Reading is not a simple lookup. A viewer must locate the correct temporal node within an overwhelming current of information, and even brief direct attention can age the body and overload the mind (Chapters 976–977).

Abilities and limitations

Native-world recording

The Tablet records events in the original Xuanhuang Realm from the world’s beginning. Its coverage is not universal: cave heavens, small worlds, and foreign realm fragments later joined to Xuanhuang may fall outside or interrupt its records. Powerful concealment associated with Xuantian can also leave gaps or distort what a bearer can retrieve (Chapters 865–867).

Existence alongside heaven and earth

Fusion lets Senior Stone Tablet persist through ages alongside the realm. That endurance comes with involuntary responsibility and an unending influx of information, leaving him weary and unable simply to hand the treasure away. Li Fan’s refusal to fuse shows that longevity here is a binding condition rather than a cost-free enhancement (Chapters 865–867, 975).

Genesis Chronicle blood river

The reformed Chronicle conceals itself and protects its records by exposing viewers to the vast historical current. Li Fan’s physical age jumps after only limited observation, and his mind cannot isolate a desired event without further method. Numbers of expendable viewers, longevity-level endurance, or later information-offloading structures are needed to exploit it systematically (Chapters 976–977).

Custody and users

Senior Stone Tablet is the fused bearer of the original artifact; he is neither a casual wielder nor a proprietor able to discard it. His disappearance removes the bearer but not Xuanhuang’s underlying Tablet law, prompting the world to create a successor form (Chapters 865–867, 975).

Li Fan intervenes in the successor’s birth, regards the stationary Chronicle as a strategic possession, and protects it with a formation derived through the Final Dissociation Disc. Sima Changkong appears to become its vessel or transformative ingredient, but the corpus leaves his precise surviving identity uncertain. Tianyang serves only as guardian and is explicitly told not to access its records (Chapters 975–977).
