Qin Feng frowned slightly, his eyes flashing with uncertain light as he stared intently at the door in front of him.
Ling Xueyan, Qinglan, Qingjie, and Jin Xiaoman, who were standing to the side, were all on high alert and fully prepared to strike at any time.
Time passed by, but the door remained silent and motionless.
Qin Feng stared at it, a hint of doubt rising in his heart. But after only a moment's hesitation, he took a deep breath, resolutely took a step, and slowly walked towards the door.
As the distance gradually closed, Qin Feng discovered that the originally quiet runes on the door began to twist violently as if they were alive, as if they wanted to break free from their restraints and release some unknown power.
Just then, without warning, a pitch-black shadow darted out of the door like lightning, rushing straight towards Qin Feng with a sharp gust of wind.
Qin Feng reacted extremely quickly. His eyes suddenly narrowed, becoming as cold and sharp as a star, and at the same time, he clenched his right fist and swung it out with lightning speed.
In an instant, a dazzling golden light burst forth from his fist, illuminating the dim space around him.
With a loud "bang," Qin Feng's fist collided violently with the dark figure.
With a shrill scream from the shadowy figure, it was instantly shattered into countless black fragments by the powerful impact, which then gradually dissipated into the air like smoke, disappearing without a trace.
The darkness behind the door seemed to be disturbed by the earlier impact, and more shadowy figures were vaguely moving about.
"Playing hard to get!"
Qin Feng's lips curled into a slight, disdainful smile. He strode fearlessly toward the mysterious door, his eyes sharp and resolute.
As he approached, he carefully observed that the runes on the door had dimmed considerably after the previous violent collision.
Seeing this, Qin Feng's face remained unchanged as he raised his right hand to touch the door in front of him.
However, at that very moment, a bone-chilling cold surged forth like a tidal wave. Although this chill was terrifying, nothing else seemed to be unusual.
However, just a short while later, something unexpected happened!
The door in front of Qin Feng vanished without a trace, as if it were a phantom!
At the same time, the originally dark sky suddenly changed color, as if it had been stained with blood, presenting a shocking crimson color.
This eerie red light instantly illuminated the entire first floor of the Demon Suppression Tower.
Qin Feng and the others were all taken aback, and then they looked around warily. They saw that there were pale bones scattered all over the ground. These bones looked particularly sinister and terrifying under the blood-red light.
Not far from them stood a towering platform.
On the high platform sits a bead that emits a faint, cold light, like a lonely, twinkling star in the night sky.
Qin Feng stared intently at the bead, his gaze sharp and unwavering, not missing a single detail.
Time passed by, but he still couldn't figure out what was special about the bead. It looked ordinary, no different from any other bead.
Just as Qin Feng was about to look away, Qing Lan's voice suddenly rang in his ears: "That is the Glazed Pearl, a top-grade Chaos Innate Treasure!"
Qin Feng was taken aback. "A Primordial Chaos Treasure?" he murmured to himself, his face showing a mixture of disbelief and confusion.
It should be known that treasures of this level are extremely rare and precious, and the power and value they contain are immeasurable.
Qin Feng subconsciously turned to look at Qing Lan beside him, only to see that she also looked astonished, her beautiful eyes wide open, staring intently at the glass bead, as if trying to find more clues from it.
Qin Feng asked in confusion, "How could such a treasure appear here?"
Just then, Ling Xueyan, who had been standing silently to the side, suddenly spoke.
Her clear, melodious voice broke the brief silence: "This is definitely not a glass pearl!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng blinked and subconsciously turned his gaze to Ling Xueyan.
Ling Xueyan looked completely confident, as if she had absolute certainty about her judgment.
Qinglan frowned slightly as she looked at Ling Xueyan and asked, "How can you be sure this isn't a glass bead?"
Ling Xueyan turned her head slightly, glanced at Qinglan out of the corner of her eye, then gave a soft snort and replied, "Isn't it obvious? The Glazed Pearl is a top-grade Chaos Innate Treasure!"
"How could such a treasure, possessing boundless spirituality and immense power, be as lifeless and inanimate as this thing before us?"
Qinglan frowned and continued to press, "Then what makes you so certain that the glass bead in front of you is a lifeless object?"
Ling Xueyan's lips curled up slightly, and she let out a soft laugh: "Hehe..."
Her clear, melodious laughter echoed in the air, seemingly tinged with mockery. "Isn't this obvious enough? Such an obvious thing, yet you still need to ask me?"
Upon hearing this, Qinglan opened her mouth, about to speak.
However, at that moment, Qin Feng suddenly spoke up. "Why argue? Whether this thing is a lifeless, inanimate object or not, the answer will naturally be revealed once we try it ourselves!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Feng gently waved his arm, and a powerful divine force instantly surged from his palm.
Immediately afterwards, a blazing fireball appeared out of thin air and shot toward the mysterious bead with lightning speed.
The fireball traced a dazzling arc through the air, scorching and distorting the air in its path.
The raging fireball, like a wild horse, hurtled toward the mysterious bead at an astonishing speed.
However, just as the fireball was about to hit the bead, something unexpected happened!
The bead that had been lying there quietly, seemingly lifeless, suddenly burst into a dazzling light!
In an instant, an ice-blue barrier appeared around the bead as if it had descended from the sky.
The barrier exuded a chilling aura, icy and biting.
After the fireball struck the barrier, it seemed to be blocked by an invisible force, unable to advance any further.
Qin Feng was slightly taken aback upon witnessing this scene.
His eyes widened, and an expression of disbelief crossed his face.
Clearly, he had no idea that this seemingly ordinary, even somewhat lifeless bead possessed such powerful defensive capabilities.
But he quickly came to his senses, and a smile unconsciously crept onto his face. "Heh, this is interesting..."
