Chapter 2250: Chapter 2250: Opening the Jade Box!

Jia Chen immediately said:

"Daoist Zhou should also know that currently, the Black Cloud Twenty-eight Clans are facing a pressing threat from the Divine Horn Clan’s army, and the situation is exceedingly dire."

"And Daoist Zhou’s strength is unfathomable. I’ve already spoken to the Clan Elders of the Alliance, and all the Elders are quite interested in Daoist Zhou."

"If Daoist Zhou could become a Guest Elder of our Black Cloud Twenty-eight Clans and contribute to this great war, then the matter of using the Transmission Array will naturally fall into place."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu showed a contemplative expression.

To be honest, Zhou Yu didn’t want to get involved in such a war between the super clans.

Because in such scenarios, those hidden monsters are very likely to act.

Not to mention, if the Divine Horn Clan triggers a monster in the Tribulation Crossing Realm or Mahayana Realm, then he could easily be implicated, and by that time, it might be too late to escape.

But if he doesn’t join, it’s likely that he truly won’t be able to use the Transmission Array.

After pondering for a moment, Zhou Yu said:

"How about this, Daoist Jia, allow me a few days to consider it before I give you a reply."

Jia Chen hastily said:

"No problem."

"As long as Daoist Zhou is willing, the position of Guest Elder of the Alliance Clan is perpetually open to Daoist Zhou."

After that, Zhou Yu talked with Jia Chen about some other topics.

A half day later, Zhou Yu left the Imperial City and returned to his residence.

This conversation with Jia Chen yielded a considerable amount of information for Zhou Yu.

Of course, the biggest news was about the Transmission Array.

There were some other scattered pieces of information too.

By chance, Zhou Yu also inquired about the matters related to Black Gold Canyon.

Jia Chen’s answer was almost identical to what the woman had said.

In this way, Zhou Yu was more reassured about the arrangements made by the woman.

When he had some free time, Zhou Yu suddenly spread out his hand, and in the next moment, a Jade Box appeared in Zhou Yu’s palm.

This Jade Box was handed to him by Yuan Sect Master, who hoped he would deliver this item to Black Cloud City.

Actually, he could hand over this item to Jia Chen right now.

But after much thought, Zhou Yu still decided against it.

The main reason was that he wasn’t sure whether there were factions within the Alliance Clan, and handing over this item might anger other factions.

At this point, Zhou Yu was not entirely disheartened about the contents inside the Jade Box.

He wanted to first figure out what was inside before making a decision.

Previously, he had studied it numerous times.

Opening the Jade Box indeed requires a special spell.

However, there is also an exception.

That is, techniques like Secret Sealing Technique generally have a time limit.

For example, an ordinary Secret Sealing Technique might lose effect in ten thousand years or one hundred thousand years.

Previously, while researching the Jade Box, Zhou Yu discovered that the Secret Sealing Technique on it was applied recently.

With Yuan Sect Master’s Divinity Transformation Realm cultivation, the Secret Sealing Technique that he applied recently has a timeframe of at most ten thousand years.

Once it exceeds this time, the Secret Sealing Technique will lose effect.

Generally speaking, this approach is failproof.

Because by then, even if it is forcibly opened after ten thousand years, it would have lost its purpose, and it would be useless when opened.

When Yuan Sect Master applied the Secret Sealing Technique back then, he was probably thinking along these lines.

But what Yuan Sect Master never expected was that Zhou Yu had something even more powerful than Plane Treasure in his possession.

It was the Four Directions Realm.

Zhou Yu placed the Jade Box in the Four Directions Realm and accelerated time, allowing it to experience ten thousand years.

At this moment, Zhou Yu checked the Jade Box again and found that, indeed, the Secret Sealing Technique on the Jade Box had lost effect.

An elusive smile appeared on Zhou Yu’s lips.

He was curious to peek at what exactly was hidden inside the Jade Box.

However, Zhou Yu did not rush to open it but set up two Formation Arrays around to conceal the aura.

After completing these arrangements, Zhou Yu finally executed the spell to open the Jade Box.

But right at the moment Zhou Yu opened the Jade Box,

A dazzling silver-white light flooded forth instantly.

The next moment, this terrifying light burst straight toward the sky.

The array barrier Zhou Yu set up was shattered in an instant, not lasting even a second.

Afterward, the silver-white light broke through the ceiling of the room, shooting straight into the sky.

Witnessing this, Zhou Yu was stunned.

He never expected such a commotion from the contents inside the Jade Box.

He immediately realized things were not good.

Then he quickly rushed forward, trying to suppress the silver-white light.

However, the moment he touched the silver-white light, a terrifying force erupted, and Zhou Yu was sent flying backward.

Simultaneously, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Zhou Yu was even more shocked.

He didn’t expect this thing to be so powerful.

At this moment, without further delay, he activated the Titan Black Mountain, enlarging it to hundreds of feet, aiming to suppress the silver light.

Under the tremendous pressure of Titan Black Mountain, the silver-white light was indeed subdued.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu felt a surge of relief.

"It works."

He immediately channeled his full power into Titan Black Mountain.

Meanwhile, he completely overlooked the Jade Box lying on the ground, quietly absorbing the Essence Blood he had just spat out.

A minute later, Zhou Yu finally managed to suppress the terrifying silver-white light.

After that, the silver-white light suddenly vanished.

Startled, Zhou Yu quickly withdrew the Titan Black Mountain and approached the Jade Box.

He found the Jade Box had returned to its previous state, and something had fallen out from it.

It was a piece of Jade.

The front of the Jade was engraved with an ancient pattern.

The back side had some simple symbols.

The center of the Jade had a blood-red smear.

Zhou Yu merely gave it a brief glance, not having a chance to study it closely.

At this moment, several powerful auras appeared outside.

Feeling their presence, Zhou Yu’s expression turned somewhat grim.

But there was no other choice.

The commotion just now was too significant; it would be surprising if no one noticed.

Zhou Yu secured the Jade piece, then stood with hands crossed behind his back.

Just as he finished, he heard a voice.

"Young friend, could you allow this old man to take a look at that item?"

Upon hearing this voice, Zhou Yu’s face changed. He quickly turned around to find an elder appearing behind him.

This person had golden skin, but his features were kind and benevolent.

However, his aura...

Zhou Yu couldn’t sense any aura from this person at all.

To be unable to sense this person’s aura at such a close distance indicated that his cultivation had surpassed the Integration Realm.

Could it be... the Tribulation Crossing Realm!!

Zhou Yu’s heart raced.

His brain worked rapidly, but he had no solution.

Feeling helpless, Zhou Yu could only take out the Jade piece...
