Leaving the Tomb, the Illness Returns

The moment the Artifact fragment appeared, the elemental attributes in the entire space surged tenfold, instantly breaking through the limit of Su Zhan's final strike.

Su Zhan tentatively activated the elemental attributes within his body and smiled with satisfaction.

Elder Shishan said that they could now continue exploring the tomb's contents and find a solution as soon as possible.

But Shi Shan's face was blank, as if he were in a daze, and whatever he said was useless.

After a long while, as if she had finally calmed down, she gave him an awkward smile.

"No need, no need to keep looking. Since you've already obtained that thing, these problems should be easily solved."

Su Zhan was puzzled, but he said no more.

He only hinted meaningfully, "Now that you've got him, you'll understand sooner or later. We can leave now."

And just like that, the journey ended inexplicably.

On the way back, perhaps because of the Artifact fragments, the Great Tomb no longer made things difficult for them.

The tomb chamber and Tomb Passage looked no different from Ordinary Grade rooms, but the speed was much faster than before.

Su Zhan looked around and felt that such a place was a rare find. He might need it later.

But now it's as if the place has lost its soul; the sense of mystery it had when we entered has vanished, and the chilling atmosphere has completely disappeared.

This disappointed him greatly; it seemed the place had already been destroyed by them.

But the trip was worthwhile. Stepping out of the tomb and into the sunlight, everyone felt as if they had stepped into another world.

Especially those powerful individuals who went in together—this time, they truly witnessed what it means to be outmatched and to be truly extraordinary.

What does it mean that even if you are very strong, there are difficulties that you cannot handle?

But thankfully, they made it through. The rewards given to them by the Moon Worship Tribe will definitely not disappoint them, which is probably the biggest gain from this trip.

Having endured various hardships here, they didn't want to stay a second longer, so they quickly bid farewell to Elder Shishan and turned to leave.

They urgently needed to recover their strength and solidify their cultivation.

Elder Shishan was also seriously injured this time, so they didn't try to keep him any longer. Their payment would be delivered to their door by a special person later.

Su Zhan is currently in the best condition. Not only has he not suffered any damage, but he has also activated the enhancement of his Mental Attribute power and obtained Artifact fragments.

He was filled with relief, feeling that the Moon Worship Tribe was indeed his lucky place, and he was considering whether to stay a little longer.

He doesn't need much rest, but Shishan is unable to move, so the Contract will have to wait.

He could only return to his residence alone. Once inside his room and behind closed door, he immediately summoned the Moon Beast.

Looking at the Moon Beast, still unconscious and lying on its back, Su Zhan felt a strange pang of guilt.

He felt truly sorry for this guy, so he patted his fur and said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely help you fulfill your wish."

He then channeled the energy within his body into the Moon Beast, trying his best to heal it.

With Su Zhan's help, the Moon Beast recovered much faster, but it was still quite weak and had not yet woken up.

After a while, Su Zhan shook his dizzy head and recalled the Moon Beast.

After looking around and finding nothing else to do, he took out the Artifact fragment and examined it carefully in his hand.

When the two Artifact fragments are put together, they are already half the size of Booklet.

Its dazzling appearance was both familiar and strange; its shape was similar to what I had seen in the illusion, but the colors had changed drastically.

Compared to when I saw the ancient times in the illusion, it was more transparent. It faintly emitted a dim light, half of it tender green and half of it golden yellow, abrupt yet strangely harmonious, as if it was meant to look like this.

Su Zhan was worried that the incompatibility of the two attributes might affect the effectiveness of the application, so he tested the results.

I realized my worries were unnecessary; the two energies could still function independently without interfering with each other.

However, the drawback is that these two energies cannot be used together. Although they are connected in form, they are still two independent entities.

The golden piece was brought by the Drum Tribe, and it has the effect of bestowing blessings, increasing vitality, while the emerald green piece was brought from the Moon Worship Tribe Tomb, and its effect is mental attack and mental protection.

Su Zhan seemed to have figured out why Elder Shishan said there was no need to look for a way to break the contract, as he could easily resolve it himself.

The power of the Artifact was greater than I imagined, and their effects were naturally greater than I expected.

He brought the Artifact close to the unconscious Moon Beast. The Moon Beast was extremely weak after releasing its Essence and suffered some mental damage from the attack in the Great Tomb.

After confirming that the Moon Beast and Su Zhan a spiritual Contract, the Artifact spontaneously healed him, forming a warm protective spiritual layer around him and infusing energy into his body.

After a few quick Cultivation Method, the Moon Beast became noticeably more energetic, even its fur became much smoother. Su Zhan couldn't resist and coiled around it a few times.

Su Zhan was happily playing with the object when there was a sudden knock on the door.

The person knocking on the door spoke urgently and forcefully, unlike their usual humble manner, which gave Su Zhan a bad feeling.

Upon opening the door, one could see a person standing outside, looking anxious and breathing heavily, clearly having rushed over in a hurry.

He said urgently, "Sir, sir, please go and check on the young master! It seems something has happened!"

Su Zhan nodded and followed him to Cheng Xinghe's current residence.

His condition was much worse than before Su Zhan left; he had returned to his initial state.

His entire body was bound by thick chains, and from his constant struggle, large welts and bruises were chafed on his hands and feet.

Its expression was ferocious, and it even had several sharp fangs; it didn't look like a normal person at all.

Su Zhan was puzzled. If the previous anomalies were due to the Moon Beast's manipulation, then what was the current state?

Or perhaps he went in the wrong direction from the start. Although the Moon Beast harbored resentment towards them, it still retained its rationality and there was no need to turn it into this form.

They Contract, sharing the same breath and spirit, which also harms the Moon Beast itself.

It was my own negligence that I failed to ask the Moon Beast what it had done. Perhaps these things weren't because of the Moon Beast?

The Moon Worship Tribe seem to be overly obsessed with breaking the Contract.

From Elder Shishan's words, we know that they had already planned to break the Contract before the Moon Beast put up any resistance.

There must be other reasons why they're willing to give up such a huge boost, reasons that will come at a great cost. Things seem to be getting more and more complicated.

Su Zhan became interested. They had a secret they didn't even dare to tell anyone they needed help with, which showed how important the secret was.

Su Zhan's favorite thing was to pry into other people's secrets.
