After learning that the Yin Yang Bagua Plate's Origin Qi recovered far faster than it was depleted, Ling Tian and the others stared in stunned disbelief. They knew Po Qiong hadn't been exaggerating: obtaining the Yin Yang Bagua Plate would be much harder than they had imagined.
The Yin Yang Bagua Plate was an existence even more terrifying than Order Divine Artifacts like the Nine-Story Linglong Pagoda and the Purple Gold Divine Bell. With their strength, Ling Tian and the others could never hope to withstand it. Against a treasure of this level, their only confidence lay in slowly depleting its Origin Power. Once that was gone, the treasure would be no different from Mortal Iron, and capturing it would be much easier.
But now Po Qiong had told them that the Yin Yang Bagua Plate's Origin Qi recovered at an astonishing rate. Their plan to exhaust its Origin Qi before capturing it had fallen through. How could that not leave them shocked—perhaps even despairing?
"How could an artifact's Origin Qi possibly recover so much faster than it's depleted?" Fairy Meng Shang asked in puzzlement. Then, as a thought occurred to her, she ventured, "Could it be because the Bagua Plate possesses all kinds of energy laws, allowing it to draw in the surrounding energy and convert it into Origin Qi on a massive scale?"
"But even so, its recovery rate has to be limited, right?" Su Ying interjected, looking around at the others. "With all of us attacking, plus so many artifacts, the depletion would be enormous. How could that still not be enough to..."
"It wouldn't," Po Qiong cut Su Ying off, his tone utterly certain.
"Why not?" Ling Tian asked. "Is there something unusual about this treasure?"
Ling Tian had no reason to doubt Po Qiong's judgment.
