Chapter 236: Chapter 230: Divine Artifact’s Special Ability

He also saw the Guard of the Portal, the Four-Armed Demon that had left a deep impression on him. It was outside an iron fortress, cursing viciously, for even with its own formidable strength, it dared not forcibly breach a heavily guarded fortress and could only vent its anger on the occasional unfortunate patrol team outside.

Lancelot continued to look downward, below Mogrondale City, where the structure of the Great Abyss became even more rugged and fragmented. He saw even more mysterious Portals, most of which were unattended. Driven by pure curiosity, Lancelot cast his gaze into the deepest parts of the Great Abyss.

But the Great Abyss seemed almost infinitely deep below, as his vision continued to extend downward without ever seeing the true bottom. He realized this was pointless and decided to retract his gaze, planning to exit this strange state.

But just then, Lancelot’s expression suddenly changed, as the Eye of Sarizdon in his hand began to emit a powerful suction force, and his True Yuan was rapidly and uncontrollably flowing into the black Bead.

At this rate of loss, his entire body’s True Yuan would soon be drained, and who knew what would happen after that?

Lancelot not only regretted his carelessness, but using an unknown magical item without identification was an extremely foolish act, a principle Kalalin had repeatedly emphasized to them. However, Lancelot, having just succeeded in his Foundation Establishment, had been a little too confident in his own strength.

But now was not the time for regret. Lancelot quickly took out a gemstone of Upper Grade Spirit Stone Tier with his free hand and began to absorb the nature’s spiritual energy contained within to replenish his own depleted True Yuan.

This was a colorful unknown gemstone from Elothysia, the Angel lover’s gift. Previously, during the Foundation Establishment, they had a few more Upper Grade Spirit Stones than needed, and he had kept this one for its strange colors, but now there was no time to be choosy.

His unintended choice saved his life. Because of the hasty absorption, he couldn’t completely transform the Spiritual Energy of the gemstone into his own True Yuan, and the Eye of Sarizdon seemed to really like the nature’s spiritual energy from the higher planes and swiftly changed its target of suction.

Lancelot felt as though he had become a conduit of energy, with the Spiritual Energy from the colorful gemstone flowing continuously through him into the Abyssal Artifact, while the flow of his own True Yuan gradually stopped.

Finally, the Eye of Sarizdon seemed to have been filled, and the terrible suction ceased. Lancelot hurriedly withdrew his hand, but the Divine Artifact clung to it as if glued, and he lifted it up in one pull.

However, the weight he felt in his hand was strange. Lancelot looked closely, and what stuck to his hand was a clump of pure dark energy, while the Eye of Sarizdon lay quietly in its original place, its black light seemingly dimmed a bit.

With a thought, Lancelot absorbed the clump of dark energy into his hand, and it formed a black spot at his wrist, looking like a slightly large black mole. He probed the black spot slightly with his Divine Sense, and the structure of the Great Abyss immediately reappeared in his eyes, exactly as he had seen before.

For some reason that he did not quite understand, it seemed the Artifact had left its Essence within him and had very comfortably made this its new home.

“What happened?” Kalalin asked with concern. Everyone had sensed something was wrong, from Lancelot’s sudden anxious expression to his action of taking out the gemstone.

“I just did something stupid,” Lancelot admitted to his companions, “I tried to inject my special kind of energy into it, but the artifact seemed to suddenly activate, wildly draining my power. I thought I would be completely drained, and that something even worse would happen afterward, but fortunately, in the end, it let go of me, it seemed to have finally had its fill.”

“That was indeed a very reckless move,” Kalalin nodded, “How do you feel now?”

“Two-thirds of my energy has been sapped, I’m afraid I’ll have to sit on the ground for a long time to fully recover,” Lancelot smiled, but then he held up his arm and pointed to the dark spot on it, “But it seems the artifact has left me a little gift.”

“What is this? A curse?” Alamir leaned in, “But I don’t smell any curse…”

“I call it a gift for a reason. In fact, when I concentrate on this black spot, the entire structure of the Great Abyss immediately springs to mind, just as the Lord of Withering described to us,” Lancelot explained to his companions, “I think we’ve got the map we were looking for, now we just need to figure out what exactly the portal to Androlina looks like.”

“Wasn’t it said that only some ancient demon elders with very old bloodlines could use this thing?” Bruto grumbled, “Lancelot, are you sure you’re not the Abyss’s own flesh and blood…”

“But this thing is actually of no use to us,” Kalalin was still somewhat nervous, “We’ve already found the Eye of Sarezdon, bringing it back to Mogrondale City and asking for a map shouldn’t be an unreasonable request…”

“Oh? Have you already found the Eye of Sarezdon?”

An unexpected voice suddenly sounded. Lancelot’s pupils shrank abruptly, he pinched a spell with his hand, and the vines holding the black bead writhed, wrapping up the Divine Artifact, and light immediately returned to the group.

At the entrance of the great hall, a blond male Elf in lavish clothing walked in, it was ‘The Great Arbiter’ Satugura, one of Mogrondale City’s Lords of Withering, followed by a large number of Maizeros Demon Guards, and some spellcasters with smooth, oval-shaped heads wearing long robes.

“Ladies and gentlemen, good evening,” Satugura greeted the group with a smile that bode no good, “It’s a pleasure to see you all safe and sound.”

Upon recognizing the newcomer, Kalalin’s complexion also changed drastically. He fumbled to take out the three Magic Wands used to search for the Eye of Sarezdon, and threw them aside forcefully.

“Why are you here?” Lancelot asked with a hostile tone, “Did you do something to those wands?”

“Can’t say it was tampering, just a bit of misdirection, using a bunch of complex but meaningless Runes to hide one truly useful simple spell,” the blond Elf shrugged arrogantly, “As soon as any of the wands detected the Eye of Sarezdon, I would immediately receive a message. Just a precaution, don’t you think that’s necessary?”
