Chapter 323 - Chapter 323: Chapter 307 "Time Stasis Stone (2/2)
“`
It felt like an endless fall, plunging deeper and deeper, when a sudden terror took root in the depths of her heart.
Had she tumbled into a bottomless pit, doomed never to reach an end?
Her mind seemed to have plunged into an abyss without a bottom, enveloped by boundless solitude and despair. In the dark abyss, time seemed to slow down and stretch out endlessly, without a conclusion.
This oppression brought about a captivity that couldn’t be shaken off, as if bound by darkness, unable to escape.
Clinging to the sacred object at her chest, her inner fear finally subsided. As long as the sacred object was still there, the great Lord of the Lost was by her side—there was no need for panic.
Great Lord of the Lost, please protect me…
Prayer.
Lilian silently prayed, deeply believing that the great Lord of the Lost would not abandon her, that all fate was ultimately arranged by Him.
It seemed like a long time had passed when Lilian suddenly heard a voice repeatedly asking questions.
“Who are you?”
“How did you get in here?”
“Can you save me?”
In the darkness, it seemed to be the voice of an old man, making Lilian alert and quite excited. Although she had no solid footing and her body seemed to still be falling, she felt that this place was more than just a bottomless pit.
Lilian didn’t answer the questions directly but asked one in return.
“Who are you?”
“I… Who am I?”
The old man’s voice fell silent for a moment, then said in a hoarse and despairing tone:
“I am a specter trapped in the abyss, a wanderer in the chaos of time, and a pitiful monster with an endless lifespan.”
“Time for me has turned to stone, causing me to forget my original name long ago.”
“Of course, you may also call me… Time Stasis Stone.”
Time Stasis Stone?
Lilian suddenly fell into deep thought, feeling as if she had heard this name somewhere before, and she also realized something.
Her “Bizarre News” Destiny’s Trajectory might have come into effect here!
She was caught in a very special situation, potentially dangerous, but possibly an opportunity as well.
However, no matter what, Lilian breathed a sigh of relief, for it must be an arrangement of the great Lord of the Lost!
So she boldly inquired:
“Time Stasis Stone, what is this place, and how can I stop falling… Is this place truly a Bottomless Abyss?”
Suddenly, the self-proclaimed “Time Stasis Stone” old man burst into loud laughter!
“Hahaha, this is not a Bottomless Abyss but an ancient ruin created by the gods!”
“A ruin?”
Lilian was momentarily stunned, then filled with utter joy.
The promotion ceremony for an “Ancient Researcher” was to find an ancient ruin that no one had ever seen, then unearth at least three highly valuable ancient objects, and record a large amount of knowledge from the ancients to complete the promotion.
The original plan of the Fischer family was for her father, Byrne, to venture into the dangerous Spirit Realm, to explore the secrets of that colossal crystal palace.
The place where the “Spiritual Dragon” appeared.
However, what Lilian hadn’t expected at all, was that within this island there also lay an ancient relic from the past.
But her heart immediately tightened.
Since this place was a relic left by a false god, it probably harbored immense danger!
Could her father and the others be in trouble?
No, with the great protection of the Lord of the Lost over her family, it was impossible for them to come to harm.
Just then, the “Time Stasis Stone” spoke up again.
“How about a bargain?”
“I assure you that if you can save me, I can grant you anything you desire!”
