Chapter 125 - The Object Wrapped In An Extraterrestrial Object

The mountain range was verdant and overlapped with each other. White clouds curled around it. From a distance, it looked like a sleeping dragon. Occasionally, birds would fly past. It gave off a sense of loneliness as if thousands of birds had flown away and thousands of people had disappeared.

This place was located on the outskirts of the capital, where the thousand-layer mountain range was located. Because of the sparse spiritual energy and its remote geographical location, it was very deserted, and very few people came and went.

Right now, the Heaven Sect, Dao Seeking Sect, Misty Illusory Manor, Infinity Sect, and other powers were all gathered here. If there were people with high cultivation around, they would be able to sense the powerful formations around them.

From the outside, it looked no different from any other scenery, but once one went deep inside, one would discover a deep pit not far away and a powerful aura filling the bottom of the pit.

This was the place where the extraterrestrial object had fallen.

As the meteorite fell, there was another item inside. Unfortunately, before they could see it clearly, that item was snatched by the black Qi and broke into pieces.

One part was in their hands, and the other part was missing. It might be because it was incomplete, so the seven great sects had studied it for a long time, but they still couldn’t figure out what it was.

They had no choice but to keep it safe for the time being and study the meteorite instead.

This meteorite looked ordinary, but it was actually engraved with unfamiliar patterns and symbols. During the fall, many of the patterns and symbols had been obliterated, so most of them were a little blurry.

Everyone’s expression was unreadable. All the people present were the sect’s grand elders who had the top cultivation.

“Is there any progress now?”

“There’s an ancient and powerful seal on this meteorite. I’m afraid we’ll have to spend a lot of time and effort to remove it.”

There were a dozen of peak-level sky rank masters and even some elders who were half a step into the star rank. They were like old monsters, and even they didn’t sleep or rest for a few nights before they could barely break it.

Moreover, this was also thanks to the fact that the restrictions on it had been worn down a lot because of the long duration and the wear and tear during the fall. Otherwise, if the meteorite was in its peak condition, let alone cracking it, they would not even be able to get close to the meteorite.

“It’s actually so powerful.”

“We all speculated that this meteorite is probably thousands of years old. We just don’t know why it suddenly fell.”

It actually had a history of 1000 years. Knowing this, everyone was even more shocked.

It was said that a thousand years ago, this land was full of spiritual energy. Everyone back then was born at the peak of the human rank, and could directly step into the earth rank. Sky rank masters were as common as dirt, and could be seen everywhere. Even the sun, moon, and star rank masters existed.

There were even people who became immortals and verified their Dao. At that time, there were real immortals!

But later on, for some unknown reason, the spiritual energy gradually decreased, and the powerhouses of the past gradually died out. Looking at the present, those who entered the sky rank were already peak powerhouses, and the peak of the sky rank was the ceiling of their fighting strength.

It really made one sigh with melancholy.

“It’s actually something from a thousand years ago. From the fluctuations of the restriction, there might be some other mystery inside.”

It was no wonder that the seven great sects were so anxious that they did not hesitate to cancel part of the competition and only hoped that it would end as soon as possible. After all, there was a great secret in this meteorite, and the sects participating in the competition were insignificant compared to it.

The people of the seven great sects knew that it was impossible to monopolize it. After all, when they had discovered it, there had been more than a few of them. Thus, they had come to an agreement that no matter what secret treasures were inside, they would divide them up.

These people tacitly excluded the Sword Sect. It was the Sword Sect’s bad luck to not be present when the incident happened.

“How is it going at the sect returning ceremony?”

“Don’t worry. Although those people have objections, they can’t do anything about it. I think we can focus on dealing with this side after the ceremony is over.”

“That’s right. After all, there are too many sects in the capital. It was inevitable that there will be too many people and eyes. Although they can’t achieve much, they are still a hindrance.”

The Heaven Sect, Dao Seeking Sect, and Yaochi Holy Land naturally knew that no power was their match. However, having too many people nearby would affect their plans, so they hoped that these people would leave as soon as possible.

There were dozens of people standing at the bottom of the pit. Golden light flowed on their fingertips and poured into the meteorite. Even the gray surface of the meteorite had a strange light.

Seeing that victory was at hand, everyone couldn’t help but show a happy expression. One of the elders called out, “Everyone, please increase your strength.”

As soon as the elder finished speaking, his spiritual power instantly increased by a lot, and so did the others.

A faint spider web-like mark spread out and quickly covered the entire surface of the meteorite.

“Crack-”

The sound of something breaking echoed in the deep pit and entered everyone’s ears. Everyone watched it anxiously.

The gray outer shell fell off, revealing a strong object. This was just the beginning. More and more cracks appeared on the meteorite’s surface.

“There’s indeed a mystery behind this.”

They didn’t know what the white gas was, but it blocked everyone’s divine sense from entering, so they couldn’t detect the specific situation inside.

Perhaps they would only know what it was after it was completely peeled off.

These grand elders seemed as though they were peeling eggs. They watched as the thing on the meteorite fell off and appeared in everyone’s sight. It was an unknown object.

“What is this? I’ve never seen it before.”

“Let me test its actual strength.”

A crack appeared in the center of the forehead of the almighty member of the Heaven Sect. The next second, the crack suddenly opened. It was an eye.

Divine light filled the air, indicating that there was no end to it. It was as if nothing could be hidden from his vision.
