Third Limit Martial Ancestor Era:
A group of forbidden-zone creatures was frantically besieging a Fire Pit.
Within the Fire Pit's range, many human martial artists were fighting madly.
Behind the Fire Pit, human powerhouses were bringing supplies over without pause, keeping the Fire Pit operational.
But... there were too many forbidden-zone creatures, and they feared neither death nor injury.
The human martial artists were gradually unable to hold on.
Just then, everyone fighting suddenly discovered that they could not move.
Not only could they not move, even the forbidden-zone creatures and the burning Fire Pit had frozen solid.
At this moment:
It was as if time had stopped, leaving only their thoughts able to move.
At this moment, all living beings felt the descent of Great Terror.
The next second, they saw an extra person appear out of thin air beside the Fire Pit.
A man with indistinct features and an extraordinary bearing.
He wore magnificent clothes. Even standing there without moving, he seemed like a king looking down upon all living beings.
The instant they saw him, they felt endless shame and fear.
They felt that merely seeing this man was an enormous sin.
They deserved to die.
But they could not move. They could not even kill themselves.
This made them even more terrified.
At that moment, figures strangely appeared one after another before the man.
These figures stood around the Fire Pit, utterly motionless yet lifelike.
Even every strand of hair on their bodies was vividly lifelike.
"Does anyone here recognize any one of them?"
"A few years ago, or perhaps days ago, or even hundreds of years ago, they fought a group of forbidden-zone creatures here at this Fire Pit."
"In the end, they died!"
"At the time, they took a box from the forbidden zone!"
