This is truly rare!
Sun Lingtong, striving not to return empty-handed, consud nurous books and secretly mastered the black market, learning through practical experience, with a broad vision, is familiar even with Underworld materials.
Yet the treasures here are all within his knowledge blind spot, completely unknown.
Zeng Jide, noticing Sun Lingtong’s confusion and desire, walked slowly with hands behind his back to these shelves, "This stockpile can be considered the essence of Wangchuan Immortal City."
"The River of Oblivion is the most famous long river in the Underworld world, where souls entering the river steadily shed their mories and emotions. As these mories and emotions are discarded, souls beco as if liberated from burdens, becoming lighter and lighter until they float to the river surface and eventually reach ashore."
"And souls ashore rember nothing, akin to a newborn child, confused and curious about everything."
"Therefore, so also call the River of Oblivion the Sin Washing River or New Life River."
After the introduction, Zeng Jide brought the topic back: "These treasures all originate from the River of Oblivion, unique specialties rarely seen elsewhere."
"So, it’s normal not to recognize them."
"For example, this is called the Heart-Binding Lotus of Grief."
Sun Lingtong gazed over and saw a pile of lotus segnts, each about half a foot long, entirely grey and lifeless as if dead. The lotus’s surface was entangled with nurous threads, half-transparent and grey-white.
Upon closer look, he found these threads moving independently, intertwining and emitting a mournful aura that made his chest feel heavy, unable to resist shedding tears.
Zeng Jide pointed to another place, saying, "This is Anger Fire Glaze. Similar to the Heart-Binding Lotus of Grief, ford at the bottom of the River of Oblivion from millions of accumulated angry and wrathful thoughts."
Sun Lingtong took a few steps and saw the treasure Zeng Jide pointed out, suddenly feeling his eyes pricked.
This is a fist-sized, irregular-shaped crystal. Its entire surface is blood red, with blazing flas seemingly burning and jumping inside, emitting fine crackling sounds while releasing a rageful will wanting to shatter everything.
Then, Zeng Jide introduced Fear Soul Cold Crystal, Resentful Poison Miasma Flower, and Obsession Iron.
Fear Soul Cold Crystal is an ice-blue hexagonal crystal, emitting a chilling air that inspires dread.
The Resentful Poison Miasma Flower has petals as black as ink, layered, with a bizarre purplish-red flower core.
Obsession Iron, outwardly unremarkable, appeared as heavy black iron blocks. If placed before Sun Lingtong, it would only be regarded as ordinary iron blocks. But in truth, these iron blocks are extraordinarily heavy, core treasures for refining top-tier defensive magic treasures.
Zeng Jide stopped at a shelf, his eyes gleaming.
He said surprisingly, "Oh? There’s even Child’s Tears Gold here."
This is golden liquid like water, contained in a bowl. It’s pure and immaculate, emitting an extre warmth, attachnt, and hopeful aura, reminiscent of the rising sun.
"These are the purest, flawless souls shedding the purest tears."
"Normally, it’s hard to have such souls. But the River of Oblivion, able to completely purify souls, akin to rebirth, greatly increases this probability."
Sun Lingtong was amazed.
Zeng Jide finally halted at the deepest shelf, his gaze fixed, speaking, "Found it."
"This is the target of my theft this trip—Wangchuan Vortex Eye."
"Vortex Eye?" Sun Lingtong knew this.
Anything flowing, forming swirls over the years, may produce a pupil at the swirl’s center. This is the vortex eye.
Zeng Jide said, "Exactly the vortex eye you know, but these are distinct, ford within the River of Oblivion."
"You must know, the River of Oblivion embodies the way of oblivion, able to shed emotions and erase mories. Every drop of its water has this effect and counts as a treasure, which is quite extraordinary."
"Previous shelves contained re accumulations of emotions. This Wangchuan Vortex Eye arises from the River of Oblivion’s gestation, which is of a different level."
"The River of Oblivion is a river of treasures, and treasures erging from it are rich in principles, harmonious, often naturally ford magic artifacts!"
Sun Lingtong’s eyes sparkled.
He had long heard of natural magic artifacts, but they remained on paper or in others’ legends; now he finally saw the real thing.
Zeng Jide stood before the Wangchuan Vortex Eye and perford a sequence of finger techniques.
With each fingertip landing, a circle of finest ripples spread across the intervening light film.
Obscure talismans erged and faded silently, as if the most precise tool picked the lock core.
In ten breaths, the light film opened a gap, talisman edges twisted, constantly vanishing without triggering any alarms.
Zeng Jide reached in and effortlessly took several Wangchuan Vortex Eyes out.
Zeng Jide scrutinized these vortex eyes, found only one top-quality, becoming a natural magic artifact.
The other few were sowhat short of magic artifact status.
Zeng Jide looked at the vortex eye in his fingertips, "Thus, I’ve achieved my goal for this trip."
Sun Lingtong asked, "Ah? Senior traveled thousands of miles to Wangchuan Immortal City, braved great risks, only to steal this?"
Zeng Jide nodded and shook his head, "Whenever I steal, I issue a bright and honorable post, declaring my upcoming visit to a place to steal sothing."
"This ti is no exception."
"On the post to Lord of Wanchuan, I specified my intent to steal the Wangchuan Vortex Eye."
