Chapter 616: Encountering the Conqueror of Demons—Xiao

On the other side!

After parting ways with the three, Hearing Luo Li arrived at the depths of the underground world of The Chasm in a moment.

Located here was only a desolate pit, and different from before, a huge monster was resting at the bottom of the pit.

Hearing Luo Li only took one look and withdrew his gaze; this kind of small thing didn't even have the qualifications to make him look twice.

What he cared about was the thing floating above the pit.

That was a pillar emitting ice-blue light, with many mysterious patterns carved on it.

Ordinary people might not know the origin of this pillar.

But Hearing Luo Li hadn't come into contact with it once or twice, so he naturally understood what this thing was.

"There's actually a Skyfrost Nail here too."

Hearing Luo Li identified its background at a glance; without a doubt, it was exactly the same as the Skyfrost Nail that nailed the silver-white ancient tree in the ice-snow ancient kingdom of Sal Vindagnyr on Dragonspine.

Both were sharp weapons used by Celestia to punish civilizations that overstepped.

Even, if it weren't for the Great Serpent of Enkanomiya taking the initiative to die, it's hard to say if Byakuyakoku wouldn't have suffered a disaster.

Seeing the Skyfrost Nail, Hearing Luo Li couldn't help but extend many guesses in his heart.

And the real name of this thing was "Nail of Judgment."

Only existences that had committed sins would be judged.

The ore emitting light in the surroundings—Lumenstone—was a derivative of this thing.

Just like the blood-colored crystal ore on Dragonspine, that was the derivative ore of the Skyfrost Nail infected by the blood of the demon dragon Durin.

Hearing Luo Li stared at the surroundings for a long time and finally looked at the position below the Skyfrost Nail.

There, the fluctuation of the Archaic Stone of Remembrance became even more intense.

It was almost as if it had sensed the presence of its original owner and was desperately releasing signals outward.

Standing here, even without careful sensing, one could perceive the urgency of the Archaic Stone of Remembrance and the information carrying some unknown meaning.

Hearing Luo Li narrowed his eyes; ever since he gifted this thing to Guizhong, she had become the second owner of this thing.

To be reasonable, without the control of an owner, the Archaic Stone of Remembrance would only fall into a state similar to a crash, with only instinctive mechanisms running, and would never actively release signals outward.

"A bit strange, could it be that the Archaic Stone of Remembrance has developed an anomaly?"

Hearing Luo Li frowned slightly, feeling somewhat surprised in his heart.

That shouldn't be.

Items obtained by signing in must be high-quality goods; it was absolutely impossible to obtain fake or inferior products.

Back then in his hands, the Archaic Stone of Remembrance had even killed several Archons.

While puzzled, Hearing Luo Li, without much thought, directly intended to enter the interior of the Archaic Stone of Remembrance.

Even as its original owner, without the imprint, he had no way to re-control it, so he needed to start over.

Moreover, he wanted to understand what kind of anomaly had occurred with the Archaic Stone of Remembrance.

Thinking of this, Hearing Luo Li broke the outer seal of the Archaic Stone of Remembrance without hesitation and stepped into it.

Under his violent dismantling, the node leading to the inner world of the Archaic Stone of Remembrance suddenly became much more fragile.

In the depths of the darkness, everything became quiet again.

…………

At the core of the inverted city!

After Hearing Luo Li left, Lumine, Paimon, and Dai Yin fell into danger.

Fortunately, the tool duo had seen all kinds of big storms and waves, and ultimately passed through the risks safely, dismantling the device arranged by the Abyss Order under the pool water.

During this period, because Dai Yin was hindered by the purification effect, he didn't help at all, and was truly mocked by Paimon severely.

"What are you going to do next?"

Looking at Dai Yin, who breathed a sigh of relief and whose painful expression had disappeared, Paimon asked in a low voice.

Without asking, they knew that the two sides were going to part ways again.

After all, judging from the results, Dai Yin and Aether belonged to two opposing sides.

And Lumine naturally sided with her blood relative; although she had cooperated with Dai Yin several times, she hadn't completely trusted him.

"The reason why the Abyss Order built a teleportation point here should have a deeper level, such as why this civilization possessed the ability to purify the curse, and even whether it was because of this reason that it suffered a devastating blow. I want to figure these out later."

Dai Yin's expression was firm; since he knew there was a way to weaken the curse, he would pursue it.

Because the curse on the Khaenri'ah people came from the Heavenly Principles; that was the rule of a higher-spec god, an existence that could not be resisted from the root.

Lumine and Paimon knew some secrets from "Before Sun and Moon," such as that all humans were races created by foreign gods.

As created beings, receiving the curse imposed by the Heavenly Principles, it was natural that they couldn't resist.

"Alright then, looking forward to our next meeting." Paimon waved to Dai Yin, who had the intention to leave. ===== CHAPTER 618 =====
