Crisis! The Next Fragment Appears

At this moment, Su Zhan's cultivation also reached a critical point.

Through rapid absorption and accumulation, the cultivation speed of the Mental Attribute of the Cultivation Method has increased from 0 times to 50 times, which is an extremely fast speedup!

The next big hurdle is 100x speed, but we're stuck here.

Each upgrade requires a significant increase in energy, as they have already absorbed most of the energy in the vicinity.

To obtain more energy, one needs to relocate or gather that energy, which both sound difficult.

But at that very moment, attacks from all directions intensified simultaneously, bringing with them a surge of powerful elemental energy.

But more importantly, how to withstand the fierce attack.

Su Zhan was initially distracted and didn't notice the danger. But now that the energy was getting closer and closer to him and his absorption was becoming smoother, he realized that something was wrong outside.

The safest and most rational course of action at this point is to quickly end the cultivation, fight it, and eliminate these things, or simply run away.

But Su Zhan refused to give up. He gritted his teeth and placed all his hopes on the powerful protectors who were guarding him.

I'm betting they can hold on, so I can absorb even more!

This is a rare opportunity, and reconnecting after this interruption might be troublesome.

He could only do his best to channel his power and send signals to the various Cultivation Method so that they could cultivate faster!

Even the Mirror of Insight above his head sensed his will and accelerated the gathering of energy.

Su Zhan's attitude angered the auras that roamed outside; they were the master's eyes and ears, capable of relaying signals to the Monster inside the tomb.

Su Zhan completely disregarded them, treating them instead as tools to improve his cultivation. Enraged, he increased the intensity of his attack.

Even those who couldn't participate in the conversation could sense their anger.

Cold sweat poured down their foreheads even more; they had already dealt with countless rounds of attacks.

They were just testing the waters, so they weren't really that ruthless.

Even so, their energy was greatly depleted, and several of the weaker experts were already panting heavily, their hands trembling slightly.

The energy here is not conducive to cultivators engaging in wars of attrition, but rather highly beneficial to the various strange things that have been sealed here for many years and have long been accustomed to it.

This is their ecosystem, their territory, and their power will naturally be amplified to suppress any external invaders.

What started as mere teasing and observation turned into increasingly fierce and frequent attacks as its anger grew.

The defensive circle formed by the group trembled, and when they turned around, they found that the energy ball was focusing its firepower on one of them.

Everyone was anxious and nervous, wanting to rush over to help, but they dared not leave their posts.

If they relax their guard and create a gap, the entire defense will collapse instantly, and all of them will be in danger.

The trembling grew more intense, and those nearby could barely offer any help.

How long can this last?

The attacks grew increasingly fierce, the tremors more intense, and the number of people being attacked increased.

The blows rained down one after another, and everyone grew increasingly anxious.

At the same time, the defensive barrier in front of Elder Shishan was on the verge of collapse.

He was already quite old and his strength was not particularly great to begin with. The reason he was here was simply because he was Elder of the Moon Worship Tribe, someone they were more familiar with and trusted.

His strength was truly incomparable to others. At this moment, he was already dizzy and lightheaded, and every bit of power he used was the last drop squeezed from his body.

This trip might lead to a serious illness and shorten my lifespan.

The other powerful individuals were also suffering, facing increasing pressure while their depleted Spirit Energy could not be replenished.

Su Zhan knew the situation outside was urgent, but he was still unwilling to give up; it was so close!

He had already touched that barrier membrane; he was perhaps only three minutes away from achieving a 100-fold increase in cultivation speed.

He gritted his teeth, preparing to defend himself against the collapse that was about to engulf him, and made a final sprint.

His chest began to heat up, as if something was getting hotter and hotter, like boiling water trying to scald his skin.

Su Zhan sensed something was wrong and then remembered that he had placed a fragment of Artifact in his chest.

The Artifact was radiating energy and became scalding hot. Before he could figure out the cause of the abnormal heat, the tearing sensation in his body came back in much greater quantities.

He had no time to think, nor did he care.

After a while, a power resonating with the Artifact fragment emanated from the distant Tomb Passage, but the power on the other side was clearly stronger and more abundant.

The others noticed it too, and with a "whoosh," a green, glowing ball of light flew out from the eastern Tomb Passage.

The energy of the orbs of light spun rapidly above their heads, both gentle and powerful.

Immediately afterwards, the surrounding energy churned and spun, like a stick being stuck into a pot of porridge, causing chaos and upheaval.

The originally solid energy became scattered, fragmented, and could no longer be assembled into anything significant.

The crowd was still reeling from the easily resolved crisis.

Looking at the emerald green thing above their heads, they all wondered what it was.

Only Elder Shishan shook his gradually clearing mind, stared blankly at the green light above him, unable to believe it, before revealing an expression that was both crying and laughing.

He sighed sadly, "Fate! It's all fate; no one can stop it."

This is the Artifact fragment that Su Zhan was looking for. He never expected that he would find it so easily after searching high and low!

This fragment, sensing the call of another fragment in the moment of crisis, emerged to save the day.

Unlike the Drum Tribe Fragment, he had been sealed here, cultivating diligently and biding his time, making him much stronger.

The energy on Su Zhan's body had been depleted due to the numerous blessings bestowed by the Drum Tribe. Even though he was frequently High Priest to by cultivators, the energy loss was still significant. However, with gradual healing, it would eventually recover.

After resolving the crisis, the newly arrived fragment spun around twice in a playful manner, then suddenly flew towards Su Zhan, sliding down the seam of his clothes to his chest, where it merged with another fragment.

Su Zhan hurriedly took them out and examined them carefully under the light.

The joints are perfectly blended, with no visible gaps, but their colors are quite different.

One piece is a pale golden yellow, while the other is a vibrant, lush emerald green.

These fragments, having been separated for so long and so far apart, have each taken different paths. Whether this is a good thing or a bad thing is hard to say.

Perhaps it will possess greater power in the future, or perhaps it will be interfered with and weakened by various energies. There are too many possibilities; let nature take its course.

The powerful figures who witnessed the entire event stared wide-eyed, unable to hide their astonishment.
