At that moment, her face was pretty yet her eyes were red, and tears rolled down. But her eyes still looked strong and firm. She stared at Fade and said, "Stop apologizing. Since Grandma has already decided, she must have her own reasons."
"What you have to do now is keep yourself alive and don't disappoint her."
Fade's expression became resolute as he looked at Evelyne's tears rolling down her face, "Sorry, I'll work hard to become stronger. I'll never let any of this happen again."
Evelyne nodded slightly and didn't say a word.
Evelyne was initially a very lively and innocent young girl.
But everything that happened had impacted her too much. Although she was a very strong person, it was still difficult for her to accept such an impact.
Instead of saying useless comforting words, Fade immediately sat up with his legs crossed and started meditating. He was frantically absorbing as much positive energy as possible to replenish his energy and heal his injuries.
Just as Fade and Evelyne fled into the forest...
Ezekiel and Devin returned to South Van City.
Talmon and Yarrow were seriously injured. At their last gasp of breath, they were thrown into the Gu family's prison and were locked up.
On the other hand, Ezekiel brought Natalia to the Loh family.
Just as Natalia was brought back to the Loh family, Ezekiel's uncle, Tiernan, rushed back from the strange relic.
In the Loh family's hall at home, Tiernan sat on the main seat. After listening to Ezekiel's statement, his face darkened and he slammed his palm on the armrest of his chair. He roared angrily, "Why are you so useless? A venerable master from the Fetus Refine Realm can't even capture a lower- class human from the Human Spirit World who just entered the Soul Refine Realm?"
"It's my mistake. I'll accept any punishment, Uncle Tiernan." Ezekiel pleaded guilty.
Tiernan waved his hand and said, "This isn't the time to talk about responsibilities. What's most important now is to capture that kid and get the Ice Soul Pearl."
Hearing this, Ezekiel couldn't help showing a little doubt. He looked at Tiernan and said, "Uncle Tiernan, is that Ice Soul Pearl really that important?" "The Ice Soul Pearl is indeed very precious, but I'm sure it's no match for the treasures in the strange relic."
"After all, the Ice Soul Pearl was just a treasure that was scattered on the edge in the strange relic."
Ezekiel's confusion was also Devin's.
After all, both families knew about the Ice Soul Pearl a thousand years ago.
However, at that time, they did not pay too much attention to the scattered treasure that was on the edge of the relic, but instead, tried their best to enter the core area of the relic to search for treasures.
Otherwise, the two families wouldn't have let the younger generation go to the Human Spirit World to fight for the Ice Soul Pearl.
However, judging from Tiernan's attitude, the Ice Soul Pearl seemed to be much more important than they had expected.
Tiernan understood Ezekiel's doubts. He looked around and waved his hand. An invisible aura surrounded the hall and was isolated from the outside world.
"We misjudged the importance of the Ice Soul Pearl."
The moment Tiernan spoke, Ezekiel's heart skipped a beat.
Immediately after, Tiernan began to explain slowly.
"In the recent decades, your father and I, and almost all martial artists in the South Van City have been spending most of our time exploring the relic to obtain the treasures in them."
Ezekiel nodded to show that he had understood this point.
When the relic suddenly appeared outside of South Van City, it attracted a group of mighty experts and they fought for the treasures.
Those people were truly powerful. At that time, strong families in the South Van City such as the Loh and Gu family could only wander around and pick up some leftovers.
Later, after hundreds of years of chaotic battles, the powerful experts took all the treasures they could take with them. Moreover, the relic began to change, it became strange and unpredictable. Therefore, the powerful experts gradually left, and the entire relic gradually became desolated where there was no one else.
In the past 100 years, there had been a rare period of peace in the strange relic.
Therefore, the martial artists of South Van City seized the opportunity to charge into the strange relic and search for the treasures.
They hoped that they could be like those mighty experts back then and obtain the treasures, allowing them and their families to advance by leaps and bounds.
However, after searching for a few decades, the results had disappointed them deeply.
These powerful experts took almost all of the treasures during the hundred years of chaotic battle back then.
At that time, they had also come to search for decades but had not found any treasures as well.
Even some people who were disappointed said that there were no treasures in the relic and also told others not to waste any more time.
This information about the strange relic flashed across Ezekiel's mind.
He asked, "Uncle Tiernan, has there been a new discovery in the relic recently?"
When he mentioned this, Tiernan's expression changed. Although he had isolated themselves from the outside world, he still lowered his voice and said, "I've discovered something, and it's huge."
"What is it?" Ezekiel couldn't help but lower his voice as well and became nervous.
Tiernan sneered and said, "Your father and the others took the opportunity to enter the core area of the relic during this stable period. Finally, they found an ancient tomb there."
"An ancient tomb!" Ezekiel widened his eyes.
Tiernan continued, "It's an enormous ancient tomb, like a gigantic mountain peak filled with all sorts of plants."
"The entire tomb looks very simple and unsophisticated, it exuded a kind of old and honest aura, as if it came from ancient times but also seemed like
it could be integrated with the world. Faintly, I can even feel the aura fluctuations in the tomb."
"Each vibration of those fluctuations felt like it could cause the entire relic to shake."
"In the end, everyone guessed that the reason why the strange relic is so unpredictable and strange might be related to this ancient tomb." "Perhaps every great change in the strange relic was caused by the vibration in the ancient tomb."
"This tomb is very likely to be the core of the relic."
Hearing this, Ezekiel's eyes opened wide.
"The relic's core, this, this-"
Faintly, he began to imagine the precious treasures hidden in the tomb.
After all, back then, the mighty experts had fought for a hundred years and snatched the treasure in the end. They were able to determine the fate of any martial artist, family, or even a city's future development.
If they guessed it right, the ancient tomb was the real core of the relic. The treasures contained in it must be more powerful than the ones fought by the powerful experts at that time.
In that case, the value of these treasures was completely beyond Ezekiel's imagination.
Once the Loh family obtained this treasure, they would definitely be able to rise really quickly. Not only would they become the large clan in the small Southern Jusberg of the Taeyoon Domain in the South Van City, but they would also be able to become the largest family in the entire Earth Yuan World.
Thinking of this, Ezekiel couldn't help but breathe even faster.
Tiernan understood what he was thinking and said, "Everyone should know by now that there is a high possibility that the treasures in the tomb would be precious."
"That's why everyone wants to open the tomb and go in."
"However, after thorough exploration, we found out that there was only one stone gate at the foot of the mountain in the ancient tomb. However, it is very solid and we've tried using all kinds of methods to open it but none of them worked."
"We had no choice but to look for a method to open the stone door."
"Finally, after decades of hard work, we found a clue that the entire tomb was surrounded by a huge and complex formation. There was even a small formation on the stone door itself."
"It's very difficult to break the
formation especially when the big
and small ones are attached together. But faintly, we found that there was a corresponding rule in the formation on the stone door. As long as we follow the rule and fill the dent with a special aura, we can break the formation on the stone door, open it and enter the ancient tomb."
"We have compared and discovered that the dents on the stone door were actually from nine different treasures that fell off."
"For example, the Windbell Stone obtained by the Gu family back then, and the Thunder Wood obtained by the South Van Academy."
"In the end, we tried our best to search for the treasures from South Van City and even other cities. After placing them into the dents on the stone door, we noticed that they were indeed effective." "Now, we only have one of the nine treasures left."
Hearing this, Ezekiel excitedly said, "The last one is the Ice Soul Pearl."
Tiernan nodded and said, "Precisely."
"Back then, we didn't discover that
the Ice Soul Pearl had fallen into the Human Spirit Realm, so we didn't go and find it. It wasn't until recently, when you brought news of that
person from the Hum
World,
W
did we connect this information together and look into it further. Only
then did we manage to figure this
out."
After hearing his words, Ezekiel suddenly stood up and said excitedly, "We must capture that man and get the Ice Soul Pearl, no matter what!"
The core of the strange relic and the treasures in the ancient tomb were so attractive that it was hard for Ezekiel to resist.
Tiernan nodded and said, "Now, you understand the purpose of the Ice Soul Pearl." "Uncle Tiernan, I understand now. I'll order my men to capture Fade immediately. No wait, I'll go myself." Ezekiel said.
Tiernan said, "Be careful. Don't let anyone know about this." "Otherwise, if those mighty experts or martial artists from the capital city arrived, we wouldn't get anything even after opening the tomb."
Ezekiel nodded, "I understand, Uncle Tiernan."
"Good, now go ahead! Hurry up.
Recently, the vibrations in the tomb are becoming more and more frequent. We are worried that the
next tremor will happen soon. When that happens, the entire environment of the relic will change greatly, it'll probably become a dangerous place and we won't be able to enter it. It
will be too late by then." Tiernan reminded.
"Yes, understood!" Ezekiel replied.
The Loh family began to take action.
Almost not long after the Loh family began to make their move, Talha, who was the Uncle of Devin, the second master in the Gu family came back
from the relic.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
He found Devin and talked to him in detail about something similar to what the Loh
family had mentioned.
Devin also immediately took action.
