"Don’t say it, really, don’t say it, obtaining a high-level Holy Artifact is indeed not that simple."
Jiang Zhi was sitting near a huge lake, surrounded by various groups of people who had gathered around the shore.
Everyone stationed at the shore looked indifferently toward the distant lake surface, exhibiting a mix of greed and apprehension.
Ah Qi said, "I’ve just inquired around, a day has passed, and it seems no one has obtained the high-level Holy Artifact?"
"Not even those Divine Sons, or even the Sons of the Divine Race?"
Jiang Zhi said, somewhat surprised.
Chenxing, sitting beside with eyes closed and meditating, calmly said upon hearing this, "They’re not anxious. Obtaining the high-level Holy Artifact means progressing further, and no one wants to step into that place so soon."
He pointed his hand toward the center of Demon Land, "That’s not a place where a group of people can enter safely."
An Nan softly said, "So, they desire the struggle, yet they fear the Abyss, wanting to get more people involved to use as tools in the exploration?"
That’s quite... calculating.
His gaze turned to the lake.
The lake was vast. A thin mist floated above the water, obscuring the view and casting a shadowy haze. Though there were ripples, the overall water surface was calm.
And calmness meant something was amiss.
"The high-level Holy Artifact... is right at the center of this lake."
People had ventured into the lake from the beginning, at a distance seeing a small cabin floating in the middle.
And inside was the faint glow emitted by the high-level Holy Artifacts.
It seemed to signal to everyone that whoever reached the cabin first would obtain it.
A day had passed, and many people had gathered, yet no one had succeeded.
Because... something about the lake was off; once stepped on, Spiritual Energy would be restrained, and various eerie incidents would occur.
There were Divine Sons who approached within a kilometer of the cabin, but only stood outside for a few seconds before their expressions tensed and they quickly retreated.
Chenxing cast his eyes toward the various teams of Divine Sons in the distance, "That guy must have seen something, that’s why he chose not to open the cabin."
"But, he refuses to say."
Some disbelieving, using their abilities, tried to forcefully reach the cabin door but as they approached, the lake started forming huge waves; this was usual noise,
However, everyone calmed down, the cabin and its surroundings carried a lethal aura, not a place that could be easily entered.
At this very moment, people still attempted, gathering all kinds of information to break the enigma.
"That cabin is very eerie, Brother Su, I can see a great amount of blood energy," Jiang Zhi looked towards the center of the lake, and although obscured by the mist, he could faintly discern its outline.
Jiang Zhi, holding the Immortal Level weapon he had acquired, could also see a great amount of blood energy.
"It’s as if a great amount of resentment has converged."
"You can see it too?" Chenxing slightly tilted his head to look at Jiang Zhi, his gaze slowly lowered to the weapon in Jiang Zhi’s hand, "It seems due to the weapon you just obtained."
"I and Brother An have also used Divinity, and noticed the eerie atmosphere here, so much resentment in this place, and the surroundings of the cabin are terrifyingly ominous with a lethal essence."
His eyes narrowed with seriousness, "This is also why the Divine Sons aren’t attempting it lightly."
Another Divine Son glanced and immediately withdrew, that guy must have perceived some great terror.
However, retreating temporarily, he did not leave but started to prepare various strategies.
Jiang Zhi turned back, looking at the nonchalantly standing Su Qi, "Brother Su, what do you think?"
"I stand here watching... no, I’m not." Su Qi paused, "I think what you guys have said is right, there indeed is something off about this place, obtaining that high-level Holy Artifact is indeed not simple, needs grasping three requirements, five basics..."
Everyone is trying to figure something out, and here you are surely at your philosophical best, talking as if it has anything to do with what we were just discussing.
Never mind, he is the Sect Hierarch, can’t be provoked.
And Su Qi here wasn’t truly being nonchalant, his gaze focused on the cabin in front, listening to the grave warnings from Luo Shenfu.
"A tremendous amount of death energy!! This profound death energy has directly converged to form the lake, which underneath... is all corpses."
Luo Shenfu coldly said, "Such tremendous death energy, it’s like a huge formation, the cabin must surely house a terrifying presence."
"Daozi, don’t approach lightly, those without Divinity can’t withstand the death energy," Luo Shenfu gravely warned, "Those Divine Sons aren’t daring to venture into danger because they too acknowledge the risks."
Su Qi gently agreed, his eyes scanning over everyone, various adventurers, forces, and teams of Divine Sons.
Then his gaze rested on that cabin.
His eyes, sharp as torches, from the moment he saw the cabin, Su Qi knew... what it was.
It was the same cabin he had first woken up in when he entered the first instance.
That was the beginning of everything, Su Qi knew he might see it again, but didn’t expect it to be here.
Without needing anyone else’s warning, Su Qi’s Spiritual Eyes could also see the astonishing death energy surrounding this cabin.
Su Qi clearly remembered finding a pit of corpses beneath the floorboards the first time.
