Black Stone from the Forbidden Zone
Not only was it a waste of time, but then, their luck turned a bit bad.
Jiang Yi broke through several more light rings in succession!
Without exception, the treasures inside had all decayed.
All that was left was a pile of powder.
It's as if it's explaining its existence and its past glory.
But it was completely useless!
On the other side, Zheng Shaoyuan was in the same boat, but he knew his abilities were limited.
Even with the best selection, the result will be the same!
He was so angry that he almost started swearing, even though he usually considered himself to be well-mannered.
The two stood on the left and right!
Although they went their separate ways, they eventually met up again beneath a stone monument...
That stone tablet, compared to the others!
Dull and lifeless!
Even the protective halo was gone, and cracks appeared all over the stone tablet.
The ancient characters on it have also become somewhat blurred!
Zheng Shaoyuan is on Jiang Yi's side!
He nodded slightly, then looked up at the blurry stone tablet.
After watching for a while!
A look of surprise appeared on his face!
"It was that artifact?!"
"From that Forbidden Zone!"
That place was a forbidden area, with an alarmingly long history.
This forbidden zone existed in ancient times!
According to some historical records, this place was a forbidden area!
It can even be traced back to ancient times.
Even in ancient and modern times, it still has a notorious reputation for being ruthless.
Almost no one dares to set foot inside!
Not to mention going deeper!
Even sages and saints had to be extremely careful, only daring to set foot on the outer edges.
Even so, one wrong move and you could be robbed!
At best, they'll be injured; at worst, they'll die!
It is said that the forbidden zone is vast and boundless, and is not limited to the Eastern Desolate Continent!
It also exists in the three continents of Ximo, Southern Gloom, and Beixuan.
I don't know its boundaries; it seems to extend to every corner!
Some people say!
That was an incredibly ancient battlefield, burying countless powerful figures from untold stories of bygone eras!
It contains many ancient gods and legendary immortals and demons.
They all lost their lives in it!
To sweep through that forbidden zone, even Supreme Emperor- level being would be no match.
None of them will work!!!
It is said that the interior is full of strange and unusual things, with diverse terrain and numerous strange phenomena!
There are ancient palaces, ancient mountains, decaying caves, and shattered stars...
It harbors terrifying curses, Incomplete Killing Formation, horrifying death aura, and gruesome corpses, among other things.
It can be said that Great Opportunity and great crises coexist!
But even bigger crises are on the way!
Even if ten powerful cultivators went in, not one of them might come out.
Of course, some people are incredibly lucky!
He gained an incredible opportunity from this, and from then on rose rapidly, soaring to great heights.
Some people managed to escape!
Little did they know they were cursed, destined to become ominous, transforming into demons and monsters.
They will either die a horrible death, leaving no trace of their remains!
This shows just how terrifying that area was!
Enough to strike fear into the hearts of all!
The object before them had been taken from that Forbidden Zone.
Zheng Shaoyuan was curious!
More than anything, it was fear!
What if something ominous, or some other terrifying unseen force, lurks within?
If he accidentally gets contaminated with it, wouldn't he be in big trouble?
With his small frame!
Unlike that Ancient Sage, who, even if he wanted to, could not bear it.
Jiang Yi, however, showed a hint of interest!
He looked at the artifact, and it was indeed as described in the Inscriptions.
It looks like fragments of some weapon!
It is about the size of an adult's fist, and its overall shape is irregular.
It's pitted and uneven, like a piece of ore that's just been dug out!
Flat, flat!
It looks rather ugly!
But Jiang Yi!
Yet, I could vaguely sense an incredibly ancient and primal energy emanating from it!
It's somewhat like his divine radiance.
Hunyuan?!
This object appears to be wrapped in a box, but the reason for this is unknown.
The box rotted away and turned to ashes.
The items inside were actually quite intact!
The object was dark black!
Its surface was dull and covered in dust, making it look like a stone.
It lay there, seemingly gold but not quite!
At a glance!
There was nothing particularly remarkable about it, yet it was collected by an Ancient Sage.
It seems we can't figure it out yet. Could there be some earth-shattering secret inside?
"Emperor Son Jiang, this artifact comes from the Forbidden Zone!"
"I still suggest... it's best to be cautious!"
Zheng Shaoyuan, who was standing to the side, spoke up, offering a rather apprehensive reminder.
Is it Forbidden Zone?
He had heard of it; it was a strange place, filled with endless and terrifying dangers.
Few people set foot here.
They went in!
Most of them were doomed to die, and very few managed to escape.
Jiang Yi was initially thinking of reaching out to pick it up...
Take a look!
Now, he's starting to hesitate a little...
But when he looked again!
The black stone that had been sitting perfectly on the stone platform had vanished without a trace.
"Um???"
Zheng Shaoyuan, standing to the side, was also stunned, his mouth agape.
The object is gone?
It's gone?
Did it just disappear on the spot?
He quickly looked around, trying to find any trace of it.
It was obvious that the surroundings were completely empty!
There is no such object at all!
"What happened?"
"How could that thing just suddenly disappear? It's like a ghost!"
It seemed like he had thought of something!
Zheng Shaoyuan quickly calmed himself down and carefully checked his Cosmic Bag.
After discovering it wasn't there!
They immediately began to examine their internal organs to see if it was inside him.
"Keep the change, please!"
Jiang Yi spoke at the opportune moment, a strange look appearing on his face.
Because of that object—
It's with him.
It still appeared inside his body, hovering in his dantian.
Logically speaking!
It can be located in the dantian!
Only certain natal items are suitable, as they can be compatible with a cultivator's physical body.
It was then absorbed into the cultivator's body.
It's obvious!
This dark stone isn't it, but what's puzzling is—
Why did it get into his dantian?
And it's completely unobstructed!
Easy!
It didn't make him feel uncomfortable at all; the stone remained still.
It was suspended in his dantian!
The more you observe, the more you sense a faint, ancient, and primitive atmosphere!
It's coming right at you!!!
He used his Primordial Spirit Power to try and remove it from his dantian!
The result was surprisingly smooth!
With a gentle flick of his wrist, the black stone fell directly into his hand.
Let his palm sink heavily!
That was somewhat unexpected!
Even he hadn't expected that this thing, compared to that Great Halberd...
It will be even heavier!
It has at least doubled in size; something so unremarkable now weighs over 100,000 jin (50,000 kg).
"In your... hands?"
Zheng Shaoyuan was stunned again, then he saw what Jiang Yi was holding.
His eyes widened involuntarily!
... That's really true!
