Chapter 598 Rushing Towards the Deeper Regions (1/2)

White jade like roots curled together in the shape of a ball while a mysterious light spilled out from the cracks between them.

Zhou Yuan gazed in amazement at the roots of the jade tree before Spirit power began streaming out from between his brows. The Spirit power quickly cut off the root ball from the tree and brought it to him.

Zhou Yuan manipulated the Spirit power with his five slender fingers, pulling apart root after root as he began to slowly unwrap the root ball.

Zhou Yuan and Luluo cast over their curious and cautious gazes.

“This is…”

With the root ball now cracked open, they found a palm-sized object. It had a very bizarre appearance, seemingly resembling a crude tablet missing half its body.

The material was also very unusual and was neither metal nor wood. Overall, it seemed quite ordinary.

However, Zhou Yuan and Luluo knew that the item was not as simple as it seemed because it had been hidden in a far too extraordinary place.

More importantly, after they had removed the tablet-like object, the jade tree had gradually begun to dim and wither as if its life source had been removed.

Luluo could not help but ask, “What is it?”

Zhou Yuan grasped the broken tablet-like object. It felt extremely heavy in his hand, but his eyes were filled with bewilderment because he did not feel any special power from it.

It was obviously not a Divine Establis.h.i.+ng Treasure.

“I’m not sure.” Zhou Yuan handed it to Luluo.

Eyes filled with curiosity, Luluo also held it and began to play around with it. In the end, she pa.s.sed it back to Zhou Yuan and said, “Although we do not know what function it has, it should not be an ordinary item. You should hold on to it first. Who knows, you may somehow discover its use in the future.”

Zhou Yuan was somewhat hesitant. Although they knew basically nothing about the tablet, there was no way it was an ordinary item. Luluo's act of so casually handing it over to him made him feel as if he was taking advantage of her.

“Don’t think too much. Although it may perhaps be an extraordinary item, I did get Little Ling.” Luluo patted her sleeve as she grinned.

For Luluo, obtaining a special variant three-headed Spirit Ghost Python was her biggest reward.

“I’ll take advantage of you this time, then.” Zhou Yuan was not overly stubborn in this aspect, and he soon let out a carefree chuckle. If there was a chance in the future, he would make it up to her.

Luluo nodded, clearly not minding it at all.

Zhou Yuan carefully kept the mysterious tablet-like object before looking towards the gradually dimming and withering jade tree. “There should be nothing more now. Let’s leave this place.”

Luluo naturally nodded in a satisfied manner. She had not only obtained a six-color Divine Establis.h.i.+ng Treasure but also a three-headed Spirit Ghost Python. This was an almost unimaginable boost to her power.

The two did not linger any further, and they quickly returned to the bottom of the six-color lake through the spatial crack.

The crack slowly began to recover after they walked out, ultimately fading away. It was at this moment that Zhou Yuan seemingly felt the spatial domain silently disappear into the void.

He gently caressed the spatial bag at his hip. He had a certain feeling that the most important item in the small spatial domain had not been the two six-color fruits, but that mysterious broken tablet-like object.

There was, however, currently no way for him to ascertain this.

Plop.

Two figures broke out from the surface of the water and landed on a vantage point nearby.

Night still held the sleeping land in her silent embrace.
