59: Hidden Abilities of the Primordial Divine Crystal

As Chu Yuan was hesitating, he suddenly heard an unusual noise coming from outside, and his expression changed slightly.

In an instant, a strong sense of danger surged in his heart. Without hesitation, he quickly fled into the primal origin space.

The moment he fled into the primal origin space, a perception swept over.

Then, a voice came from outside.

“There is something unusual inside, go in and take a look!”

As the voice faded, footsteps rapidly approached, becoming increasingly clear.

Soon, two Black-Robed Figures appeared in the rock cave.

They were completely shrouded beneath the black robes, their faces obscured, revealing only a pair of icy eyes.

They vigilantly scanned their surroundings, then their eyes suddenly paused.

“A pale golden skeleton?!”

“A God Realm Expert?!”

Two exclamations rang out simultaneously. The two Black-Robed Figures exchanged glances, and a hint of pleasant surprise flashed in both their eyes.

“Let’s go take a look!”

The two cautiously walked over and quickly saw the words on the ground.

One Black-Robed Figure glanced at the words on the ground, then looked toward the dim rock cave.

“Someone has been here, but the person did not leave a trace of Qi, clearly they are extremely cautious!”

He spoke in a low voice, which was somewhat deep and rather sinister.

The other Black-Robed Figure’s gaze fell upon the puddle and the stone platform.

“The water in the puddle has been taken, and the item placed on the stone platform has also been taken.”

“And that so-called stone sphere!”

The former Black-Robed Figure added, his voice carrying a hint of coldness, “He shouldn’t have gone far. Should we pursue him?”

“Pursue whom?”

The other Black-Robed Figure’s voice turned cold, “Did you not see the words on the ground? Whether it is a Formation Great Master or a God Realm Expert, which one of them can we afford to provoke?”

“You are right!”

The former Black-Robed Figure shuddered, “We really cannot pursue him. What should we do next?”

“This place is likely our target. Let’s first search this rock cave to see if there are any overlooked treasures.”

The other Black-Robed Figure said, pausing briefly, his gaze burning as he looked at the pale golden skeleton.

Then, he continued, “Even if nothing was overlooked, if we attempt to take away this God Realm skeleton, the Cult Master certainly won’t treat us unfairly.”

“That makes sense!”

Just as the two Black-Robed Figures fully activated their perception and searched for anomalies in the rock cave before them.

Inside the primal origin space.

Chu Yuan’s expression was one of surprise and uncertainty. “Who exactly were the people who came just now? Why did they make me feel such a strong warning?”

His intuition told him that if he hadn't left just now, he would definitely have gotten into serious trouble.

He might even die if he was slightly careless!

One must know that even the previous Youth Puppet, and the powerful expert he thought was attempting Possession, did not give him such a strong sense of crisis.

Of course, judging by the current situation, the existence he thought it was probably was not trying to perform Possession.

Chu Yuan’s eyes were filled with surprise and doubt as he quickly recalled what had just happened.

Several doubts still lingered in his heart.

If it wasn't a Legacy trial or Possession, what was the reason for the Youth Puppet’s strangely balanced strength?

Why was he allowed to leave before, but not afterward?

Who were the people who came just now?

He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, but he still couldn't figure it out.

Chu Yuan shook his head, feeling somewhat restless, especially when thinking about the existence outside.

“If only…”

His heart stirred slightly, and suddenly a light screen appeared before his eyes.

Displayed within it was precisely the scene inside the rock cave.

Seeing this, joy flashed in Chu Yuan’s eyes. “Can I really see the situation outside?”

He had just had a slight thought, wanting to know what was happening outside.

But he hadn't expected that the primal divine crystal could actually achieve this.

“It seems the primal divine crystal still has quite a few hidden minor abilities!”

Chu Yuan muttered, his gaze fixed on the light screen.

He saw that at this moment, the two Black-Robed Figures cautiously arrived outside the stone chamber.

They exchanged glances, and then one of them stepped into the stone chamber.

Everything was normal!

He carefully circled the pale golden skeleton, and everything remained normal.

Seeing this, the other person also walked in.

The two exchanged glances, and the voice of the Black-Robed Figure who entered first faintly drifted out.

“My sumeru ring is Spirit Treasure grade. How about I collect it?”

The other person lowered his head and looked at his right hand, then said in a low voice, “Alright!”

Hearing this, the Black-Robed Figure nodded, raised his hand, and carefully reached for the pale golden skeleton.

But the moment his hand touched the skeleton, a sudden change occurred.

“Be careful!”

The other person suddenly exclaimed, his figure retreating frantically.

In an instant, streaks of terrifying Sword Qi suddenly erupted from the golden skeleton.

Wherever the Sword Qi passed, space was sliced apart, stirring up spatial turbulence.

The Black-Robed Figure reaching for the skeleton failed to dodge in time, was fiercely struck by the Sword Qi, and instantly turned into countless pieces of flesh, scattering blood and gore.

The other Black-Robed Figure looked terrified. Although he retreated frantically, the Sword Qi was extremely fast, and the moment he exited the stone chamber, he was also heavily injured.

At this moment, he stood outside the stone chamber, his face deathly pale, looking utterly miserable.

Even though he dodged extremely quickly, his left arm was still severed at the shoulder, and a bowl-sized penetrating blood hole appeared in his abdomen.

Even half of one of his legs was severed, the stark white bone visible to the naked eye.

He took a deep look at the spatial turbulence in the stone chamber, swallowed a Medicinal Pill, turned around, and left without hesitation.

Chu Yuan watched this scene from inside the primal origin space, secretly glad he had not gone in.

The Sword Qi gradually dissipated after raging for a while, the spatial turbulence slowly vanished, and peace returned to the stone chamber.

Inside the stone chamber, the golden skeleton and the Black-Robed Figure’s flesh and blood had completely vanished.

Conversely, except for the ground being carved into a spherical pit about a foot deep, the rest of the stone chamber’s walls looked as if they hadn't been attacked.

Chu Yuan’s heart stirred, and he pondered whether he should seize this opportunity to go out and take a look.

But he still waited cautiously for a while, and only emerged from the primal origin space after confirming there was no danger.

He carefully walked into the stone chamber, but was surprised to find that his assumption that the stone chamber hadn't been attacked was entirely wrong.

He saw that the stone chamber, in all directions, was covered in crisscrossing, fine, linear cuts.

Chu Yuan was secretly alarmed. Just as he was about to retreat, he saw a faint glow in the corner of the stone chamber.

He cautiously stepped forward, only to see a bloody severed finger beneath the rubble.

A grayish-white ring was worn on the severed finger.

Seeing this, Chu Yuan was delighted. He quickly used his sword to pick up the severed finger and threw it directly into the isolated space where the Puppet was located.

Just then, his heart tightened, and he quickly fled into the primal origin space.

The moment he left, a perception swept over.

Subsequently, the previous Black-Robed Figure returned, his gaze scanning the rock cave.

“Did I sense wrongly?”

He muttered, then looked around the rock cave and outside the stone chamber before reluctantly leaving.
