This red stone is extremely similar to the "white stone of destiny" and the "purple stone of destiny" they had previously discovered.

oh!

No, perhaps "similar" isn't the most accurate word to describe it...

This red stone is practically a carbon copy of the previous two stones; apart from the color, its shape, characteristics, etc., are almost identical.

Ye Ying felt a surge of joy and swung the whip in her hand without hesitation, while simultaneously reaching out her other hand to tightly grasp the red stone.

However, the instant her fingers touched the stone, a surging, powerful force, like a flood bursting its banks, rushed wildly into her body.

Her face instantly turned deathly pale, devoid of any color, and her body began to tremble violently.

"Ye Ying!" Ji Wuchen and Di Di noticed Ye Ying's unusual condition almost simultaneously, and they cried out in alarm.

The two were extremely anxious and rushed to Ye Ying's side, gazing at her with worried expressions.

At this moment, Ye Ying's consciousness gradually blurred, and strange and bizarre images kept flashing before her eyes...

In these scenes, Ye Ying witnessed an ancient tribe shrouded in mystery. The tribespeople, dressed in strange costumes, were holding a mysterious and unpredictable ceremony.

At the very center of the ceremony, there were three stones of different colors, arranged with exceptional neatness—a vivid, blood-red color, a snow-white color, and a mysterious, deep purple color.

Ye Ying stared wide-eyed at the three stones, her mind filled with questions: Could these be the "Stones of Destiny" that the three of them had just obtained?

She looked around at the crowd, increasingly puzzled: why were these people gathered here?

Why did they place these three stones in the very center, as if they were worshipping a god?

Isn't it said that the "Stone of Destiny" belongs to each individual? But how can we explain the current situation?

Just as Ye Ying was concentrating on trying to see every detail in the picture, a sharp, piercing pain suddenly struck without warning, instantly causing her head to ache terribly.

In an instant, the once clear scene became blurry, as if shrouded in a thick fog.

Ye Ying clutched her head in pain, her body swaying precariously, as if a gust of wind would knock her to the ground.

Seeing this, Ji Wuchen and Didi quickly reached out to support her. Didi swiftly took out a pill from her bosom and carefully fed it to Ye Ying.

After a while, Ye Ying's breathing gradually calmed down, and her complexion regained some color.

"This stone is indeed strange... I think I saw some strange things just now." Ye Ying said with lingering fear, her voice trembling slightly, as if she had not yet recovered from the shock just now.

"Never mind all that for now, this place is not safe to stay any longer, let's leave here quickly." Ji Wuchen looked around warily, knowing that this mysterious place was full of unknown dangers, and any delay could lead to unpredictable consequences.

So they decided without hesitation to leave this strange place as soon as possible.

The three of them carefully returned along the same route, carrying white, red, and purple stones.

Every step was taken with extreme caution, for fear of triggering a potential trap or attracting a more powerful enemy.

However, despite their efforts to keep a low profile, trouble still followed.
