Chapter 544 Matters of Life and Death, Not to Be Taken Lightly

Seeing Xu Fang absorb that aura without immediately channeling his magic power to resist or expel it, instead a strange smile appearing on his face, all the magical artifacts were greatly alarmed.

"This is bad! Master has walked too many dark paths and finally encountered a ghost, being tricked by this Kai Ming Beast Lu Wu!"

"This is not good at all. Could it be that this Kai Ming Beast Lu Wu has taken over his body!"

"Damn Lu Wu! How dare he treat our master like this, I won't allow it!"

The magical artifacts chattered amongst themselves, all believing Xu Fang had been tricked by the Kai Ming Beast Lu Wu and possessed.

As they spoke, several magical artifacts flew up, appearing ready to attack Xu Fang.

"Enough!"

Seeing this, Xu Fang shouted.

He didn't want to be harmed by the Kai Ming Beast Lu Wu, only to be killed by his own artifacts. Where would he even begin to explain this?

Furthermore, though these fellows claimed to be helping him, didn't it feel a little like personal grudges were involved?

"Alright, my condition is excellent. Calm yourselves!"

Xu Fang spoke loudly, finally stabilizing the magical artifacts. However, they still looked at Xu Fang with suspicion and uncertainty.

Seeing this, Xu Fang patiently began to explain.

"I am fine, truly. Nothing is wrong with me. I was just remembering some happy things!"

"Happy things?"

Upon hearing this, the magical artifacts became even more uncertain and restless.

Seeing this, Xu Fang couldn't be bothered to say more. He directly activated his thoughts, freezing all the magical artifacts in mid-air.

Regarding the happy things, Xu Fang hadn't lied to the magical artifacts. It wasn't that he was thinking about them, but rather that he had encountered them.

When that aura entered his body, he was also terrified, thinking he had been ambushed.

However, he soon saw the aura surge out of his body and land on the treasure map that had been suspended beside him.

And it seemed only Xu Fang could see all this, otherwise, the magical artifacts wouldn't have been so flustered.

As the aura settled onto the treasure map, the map instantly enlarged, and a marker shone brightly.

However, Xu Fang was busy dealing with the magical artifacts and hadn't had time to examine it. He only felt that some changes would occur, which made him happy.

Now, to understand what was happening as soon as possible, he ignored the magical artifacts, froze them, put away his smile, and began to examine the map.

"Sea of Chaos?"

Xu Fang's gaze fell upon the enlarged treasure map and he quickly discovered that this region displayed was the Sea of Chaos.

However, the marked treasures were scattered like stars, totaling nine locations. They had no names, and their information couldn't be accessed.

But even without any information, things had reached this point, and Xu Fang understood.

"This is most likely the location of the keys to the Nine Gates of Kunlun Mountain!"

Xu Fang mused. It turned out that cracking the password, that phrase, wasn't the end.

He had to speak that phrase to the Kai Ming Beast Lu Wu to obtain the coordinates of these keys!

If he had left at this point, he would truly never have known about these matters.

Fortunately, just as he was about to leave, the Kai Ming Beast Lu Wu happened to revive. Otherwise, he would have remained in the dark!

"This makes things much easier!"

Xu Fang looked at the markers on the treasure map and breathed a sigh of relief.

Knowing that the Kai Ming Beast Lu Wu and the Nine Gates of Kunlun Mountain were related to the system and the chat group, his journey into the Chaos was unavoidable.

Just now, he was troubled by how to find these so-called keys. Now, the treasure map had directly marked them for him. It was truly a timely rescue!

Moreover, this further proved that the events here had a profound connection with Xu Fang!

Perhaps, the secrets hidden within these Nine Gates were the reason why the system and the chat group existed!

This matter was of utmost importance to Xu Fang, and he naturally had to thoroughly investigate it to prevent any future trouble!

"Xu kid, that's enough. Hurry up and release us!"

As Xu Fang pondered, the voice of Liang Tian Chi rang out.

The other magical artifacts also spoke up, clearly finding the sensation of being frozen unpleasant.

"Serves you right! Do you still doubt I'm real?"

Xu Fang retorted with a playful curse, but he still activated his thoughts, allowing the magical artifacts to move freely.

"Alright, alright, don't be angry. We were just concerned about you!"

Liang Tian Chi said, then asked.

"Alright, that Kai Ming Beast Lu Wu is dead again. Should we wait here for it again?"

The magical artifacts also chimed in, agreeing.

They hadn't managed to extract any valuable information before the Kai Ming Beast Lu Wu self-destructed with a single word. How could they be willing to let it go?

Xu Fang pondered for a moment, looking at the spot where the Kai Ming Beast Lu Wu had self-destructed, then at the stone gate that seemed to have merged with the mountain. He sighed.

"Forget it, let's return to the East Sea first!"

Xu Fang knew this matter concerned the system and the chat group, so he naturally took it very seriously.

However, even though the treasure map had marked the keys to the Nine Gates, Xu Fang wasn't in a rush to find them.

This matter was incredibly bizarre, and the flood of information left Xu Fang feeling overwhelmed.

It was as if the existence of the system, and even his transmigration, were being controlled by an unseen hand!

Thinking this, Xu Fang felt a chill run down his spine, and his earlier joy vanished.

Who knew what awaited him in the Sea of Chaos, and whether he could afford the price of discovering the truth!

Faced with such uncertainty, Xu Fang lacked the strength to act rashly, lest a single misstep lead to eternal regret and his complete demise.

"It seems that until I become a Saint, I cannot leave the Primordial Era and venture into the Sea of Chaos."

Xu Fang sighed inwardly. To confront these unknowns, he needed at least the power of a Saint, otherwise, he would be too passive.

After all, it concerned his life and safety, so he couldn't be too careful!

His decision made, Xu Fang sighed, withdrew his gaze, and activated his thoughts. The Treasure Distribution Rock flew swiftly from afar.

The Golden-winged Great Peng and the other two on it complained when they saw Xu Fang. They had been watching the show and were suddenly sent away. What was that about?

However, Xu Fang was currently too unsettled to reply to them.

Watching the scenery of the Primordial Era recede, Xu Fang's eyes were filled with confusion, lacking his former spirit.

It seemed that after this trip to Kunlun Mountain, his days of carefree wandering in the Primordial Era had definitively ended.

As certain things began to surface, he had no choice but to prepare for battle.

However, he wondered what awaited him in the Sea of Chaos, and what the truth behind all this truly was?
