Chapter 538: Chapter 537: In This Era, There Is No Path to Liberation

"Uh..."

Ji Haoyuan hadn’t expected that he could so effortlessly push open the purple coffin.

This was completely different from what he had imagined.

Immediately, his Divine Thought swept towards the interior of the purple coffin.

Soon, he discovered that inside the purple coffin, there were no remains of an Immortal, but instead, he found several artifacts.

A purple gemstone, a golden scroll, and a palm-sized copper bell.

However, one corner of the copper bell was damaged, and its surface was mottled, looking like a useless scrap.

Yet, Ji Haoyuan did not underestimate it.

Being placed in this location, inside the purple coffin, even though it seemed damaged, old, and worn out, it must possess extraordinary qualities.

Among these three items, the one that truly moved his heart and stirred his desire was the golden scroll.

This might be the greatest opportunity for him in this mountain cave tomb.

Quickly, he captured the three items into his own hand.

During this process, he happened to see that the inner walls of the coffin were covered with densely packed words.

The most shocking thing was that each word was written with fresh blood.

The most shocking, even terrifying passage read:

"All laws bear boundless curses.

In this age, there is no longer a path to liberation.

We are nothing but trapped beasts in the shackles of the Qiu Long. No matter how we struggle, it is all in vain.

Hate! Such deep hatred!

Why is the heavens so unfair? Is the path to the celestial truly that difficult, even impossible to touch?"

The text was not long, but the information it revealed was indeed somewhat horrifying.

What does it mean when all laws have problems?

What does it mean when this age has no path to liberation?

Could the end of cultivation still be trapped within some kind of restraint?

If so, this result truly is shocking.

Everyone knows the ultimate goal of cultivation is to pursue great liberation and freedom.

Yet now you’re telling me that even if you cultivate to the fullest, you still cannot be liberated and free.

Then what is the meaning of cultivation?

This is definitely the greatest secret of this world.

This was identical to the words he saw on the mountaintop that day.

Both emanated a deep sense of despair and unwillingness.

As well as a deep sense of loneliness and defeat.

Ji Haoyuan’s mood was quite heavy.

This was already the second time he had seen similar content.

It can be imagined that such lamentations surely are more than just these two.

After a moment.

Ji Haoyuan gradually calmed his emotions, then turned to look at the three items he had captured in his hand.

Buzz!

Yet before he could examine them closely, the bracelet on his hand suddenly emitted a faint light.

Following this, a suction force appeared, instantly acting upon the purple gemstone.

In a flash, the purple gemstone was absorbed into the bracelet, disappearing without a trace.

Ji Haoyuan stood stunned.

But he quickly regained his composure.

Could the unparalleled Female Immortal within the bracelet have guided him here for the purple gemstone?

Thinking of this, he hurriedly stored the golden scroll and the broken copper bell into his own Storage Ring.

Afraid that if he wasn’t careful, the bracelet would absorb the other two items too.

That would be a great loss for him.

Fortunately.

After absorbing the purple gemstone, the bracelet on his hand seemed to fall silent, transmitting no trace of movement.

Moments later.

Ji Haoyuan emerged from the bottom of the pool.

He looked at the emerald-colored pool water, thought for a moment, and immediately took out a storage container from himself, then began trying to collect the emerald-colored pool water. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Visibly, the emerald-colored pool water began to decrease inch by inch.

When he had collected approximately one-third of the emerald pool water, he stopped his actions.

Not because he didn’t want the remaining pool water, but because he dared not continue collecting.

Because an unseen intuition told him.

In this place, everything must be done in moderation and excessive greed must be avoided.

Thinking of this, Ji Haoyuan bowed towards the pool.

Then he turned decisively and walked outward.

He decided to leave.

It’s undeniable that during this Celestial Tomb journey, although he had experienced many shocks.

His gains were indeed immense.

When he completely leaves here and returns to the Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land, these gains would surely allow his strength to have a leap in advancement.

Just as Ji Haoyuan was walking towards the outside of this mountain cave, a group of people arrived at the triangular hall he had passed by earlier.

These were the Divine Ruins cultivators who had hunted down numerous Holy Land cultivators and cultivators from various Star Sky Strong Races.

At this moment, the four of them looked at the opened passage in the triangular hall, once full of anticipation, with their expressions immediately changing.

"Damn it!"

"Someone has beaten us to it in this place."

The young man in luxurious attire with a white lotus mark on his forehead said with a grim tone.

The expressions of the three people beside him were equally unpleasant.

The only female cultivator said, "By right, only we should know about this place’s secret.

How did the other party come here and even enter that passage?"

"No matter how the other party got here.

The items inside that passage must not be taken away by them."

A white-haired man among them spoke.

His eyes surged with terrifying murderous intent as he looked at the leading luxurious youth, Senior Brother Gu, and said:

"Senior Brother Gu, as far as I know, although there could be tremendous opportunities within that passage, there might also be considerable dangers.

Now that someone has entered the passage before us.

Why not simply wait for them to come out and directly take what we want from them?"

When he finished speaking, the eyes of everyone present flashed.

The leading Senior Brother Gu gazed deeply.

He lightly nodded.

"Junior Brother Guo, you’re right.

Rather than you and I venturing into the passage, we might as well wait for them to come out.

If necessary, we can also use the three coffins here to give them a big surprise when the time comes."

As they spoke, Senior Brother Gu and his group of four began to retreat, and in no time were outside the mountain cave.
