Chapter 606: Mysterious Gaze

"Rebel, no matter what, leave this place."

Without waiting for Li Heng to respond, the Forbidden Object made its attitude clear: it did not welcome Li Heng, and it liked even less the fact that Li Heng had caused such a great commotion on its turf.

"Why should I, and why would I, when I want to kill evil things."

Li Heng responded, very honestly.

The turbid eyes of the Forbidden Object flickered slightly; it seemed somewhat surprised, not having expected Li Heng to answer this way.

"You cannot make such a grand display just because you want to kill evil things! Moreover, the evil things here are all born of the Abyss Sea, symbolizing the negative reverse side of the Great Void. In the Cycle of the Great Void, why must you kill them?"

"If you want to kill so badly, why don't you go kill those that destroy the Calamity and monsters of the Great Void?" the Forbidden Object asked with some annoyance.

"It seems you are asking me for the reason. Actually, the reason is simple: I'm just killing them while I'm at it. I am currently working for the Multiverse Alliance, helping them find a Great Dao Treasure Pearl in the Abyss Sea, and there are too many evil things in the sea, obstructing my view, so I need to clear them out."

Li Heng narrowed his eyes and smiled, easily selling out the Multiverse Alliance. Beside him, the Third Elder felt cold sweat break out on his forehead; he suddenly regretted recruiting Li Heng into the Multiverse Alliance.

Is this ability to stir up trouble really that heaven-defying?

If the Forbidden Object at the bottom of the Abyss developed hostility toward the Multiverse Alliance because of Li Heng's words, or even attacked the Multiverse Alliance, he didn't know if the Multiverse Alliance could survive it, but he would definitely be killed by the Alliance Leader first.

After all, this could already be considered a monstrous disaster.

"Are you talking about that group of cowardly runaways? Forget it, they don't have the guts; you rebel, do not try to divert the disaster onto others. Although I have been sleeping for a long time, I am not muddled."

Those turbid eyes were already icy cold.

The Third Elder breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed this Forbidden Object was no fool. However, he could not let Li Heng continue to converse with the Forbidden Object like this; if it kept going on this way, it would likely really bring the hatred of the Forbidden Object upon the Multiverse Alliance.

His mind stirred, causing the power of the Multiverse Alliance to bolster himself, and then he slowly walked into the line of sight of the Forbidden Object, withstood the infinite pressure, bowed very politely, and spoke.

"This existence, I am the Third Elder of the Multiverse Alliance. The Multiverse Alliance does not wish to cause trouble; we only wish to retrieve the Great Dao Treasure Pearl lost in your territory, and I ask for your understanding. As long as we can retrieve the Great Dao Treasure Pearl, all of our Multiverse Alliance's arrangements will be withdrawn immediately!"

The Forbidden Object was silent upon hearing this, seemingly in thought.

Then it spoke.

"Since that is the case, then as you wish. But if you do not withdraw afterward, I can only once again channel the Great Void Power, as I did in the endless ages past, and carry out my duty."

These words were materialized, falling heavily upon the Third Elder's head, carrying a stern warning. Afterward, the Abyss Sea began to boil and churn even more violently, and in one spot, a water column shooting into the sky erupted, dragging out the Shafa who had been at the bottom of the sea.

An invisible, mighty force completely imprisoned all of Shafa's movements, moving him and the Great Dao Treasure Pearl on his body into the center of Li Heng and the Third Elder's view.

"This is the thing you want; take it and leave quickly."

The Forbidden Object flicked Shafa and the Great Dao Treasure Pearl away, following the connection of Causality, breaking through the Void, and throwing them out of the scene that had been before Li Heng and the Third Elder, appearing before the two of them.

The Third Elder looked at the disheveled Shafa and the Great Dao Treasure Pearl on him, feeling speechless. You guy, you had already obtained it; why didn't you say so sooner!

"It seems you are in a hurry and don't want to cause too much of a commotion."

Li Heng ignored the matter of Shafa and the Great Dao Treasure Pearl; to him, these were all minor details, and he remained interested in continuing his conversation with that Forbidden Object.

"It is indeed as you say, but rebel, you had better worry more about yourself. You are too unscrupulous; sooner or later, you will attract some gazes. By then, even if the Great Void does not sanction you, you will end up like many rebels, dying without a burial ground."

The Forbidden Object warned Li Heng, then its aura surged, whipping up endless wind and waves on the Abyss Sea. Wherever it passed, space-time shattered; even Li Heng's Bronze Ancient Mirror could not be spared, shattering into countless dust particles in that instant and falling into the sea.

The scene before Li Heng's eyes also instantly extinguished.

This time, the Forbidden Object had truly used its power, just to cut the Gordian knot and resolve this matter while minimizing the impact; naturally, the Bronze Ancient Mirror could not withstand it and directly turned into dust.

But then again, the dust wasn't useless, was it?

It could be kept for a backup plan.

It was just a bit of a pity that he couldn't continue harvesting Source Power. But that didn't matter. This time he had harvested a full five hundred thousand Golden Source Points, which could be considered a bountiful harvest.

Although he could continue to harvest, he didn't know how much Great Void Power the Forbidden Object could use; continuing to harvest would definitely put him at odds with that Forbidden Object, and it wasn't worth it.

At this moment, what concerned him more were the Forbidden Object's words. It said that his being so ostentatious and arrogant would attract some gazes; these gazes did not seem to be the suppression or rejection of the Great Void, but something else? Could it be the Calamity and monsters?

Even this Forbidden Object was so subtle and careful, not wanting to cause too much of a commotion—was it also avoiding these gazes? If that were true, then it would be even more interesting.

He thought carefully in his heart.

"Shafa, bring the Great Dao Treasure Pearl over."

The Third Elder said.

No matter how tortuous, complex, bizarre, or thrilling the process was, now there was only one final result left; as long as the Great Dao Treasure Pearl was brought back, that was enough.

"Shafa, didn't you hear me? Why are you just standing there?"

After a while, Shafa was still standing in place, without the slightest movement, as if he hadn't heard the Third Elder's words. The Third Elder frowned and said loudly with some displeasure.

But this time, Shafa still didn't send back any response.

The Third Elder narrowed his eyes slightly, immediately realizing something was wrong. He raised a very thick, invisible shield around himself to protect his body, manifested a Daoist Dharma Aspect behind him, and approached Shafa to see what was going on.

In his perception, everything about Shafa was perfectly normal; this situation shouldn't be happening unless this normalcy was the greatest abnormality, and he had to be careful.

After thinking about it, he first tried to communicate through his mind, extending a wisp of thought to try and wake up Shafa, who was now like a wooden statue and seemed to have fallen asleep, but his thought was like a clay ox entering the sea, without the slightest response.

The Third Elder seemed unaware, becoming even bolder.

He ordered the Daoist Dharma Aspect to walk in front of Shafa; since being gentle didn't work, he would use force, intending to slap Shafa awake and use the Daoist Dharma Aspect as a medium to spy on what had happened to Shafa.

"If I were you, I absolutely would not touch him."

At this moment, Li Heng came back to his senses from his thoughts, looked at the Third Elder, whose star of death was already hanging high above his head, and said calmly.
