Chapter 1064: The Awakening of the Soltice Ring

The human cultivator and the demonic beast flinched in shock, only to reason that this was likely due to the formation. They assumed his actions might destabilize it further, making it collapse sooner.

Indeed, the formation wavered, but it didn’t immediately break apart.

"You hold him off, and I’ll go check inside," the human cultivator said to the demonic beast beside him.

The demonic beast sneered. "Why don’t you hold him off, and I’ll go take a look?"

The two of them were not allies and could not reach an agreement so quickly, which indirectly bought Kenny Lin some valuable time.

Inside the treasure vault, Amalia had not anticipated that once the Soltice Ring was fully repaired, it would immediately evolve into a true divine artifact.

Had the forbidden ground not been located within spatial rifts, a fearsome 99 Heavenly Tribulation would have already descended.

Outside the forbidden ground, thunderclouds rapidly gathered over the sky, their deafening roars hinting at the ferocity of the lightning contained within.

Even the protective barriers set up by Menruch and his group nearby were swiftly destroyed by the thunderclouds.

The strange phenomenon in the sky drew out many lurking demonic beasts from the depths of the mountains, their eyes fixed on the scene.

The Soltice Ring floated out of Amalia’s grasp, ascending into the air. Intricate runes began reassembling themselves on its surface.

Amalia didn’t panic—she could still feel a faint connection to the ring.

The ring had been with her for decades, deeply imprinted with her essence. They had long since become inseparable from her.

From outside the door, booming sounds echoed intermittently. Amalia ignored them, her gaze locked on the Soltice Ring, occasionally sensing waves of energy feeding back to her.

Moments later, the reassembled Soltice Ring returned to her dantian.

A massive influx of information flooded directly into her soul.

Probing the ring with her spiritual sense, Amalia realized the small compartments she had grown used to were gone. Startled, she feared everything stored inside might have vanished. But to her relief, she discovered that while the compartments were no longer there, the ring now housed a vast space—a miniature world.

"What’s going on? Isn’t this supposed to be a storage space?" she wondered in bewilderment.

The miniature world had its own sky and ground, albeit tiny—far smaller than even a billionth of Mystic Void Continent. Yet, it was an independent realm. Underneath its sky lay a hill with a small cottage perched on it.

Amalia extended her spiritual sense into the cottage, discovering that while lifeless objects remained, everything imbued with spiritual energy had disappeared, including the items she had snatched from the Path of All Immortals.

She attempted to expand her sense to encompass the miniature world, only to find its boundaries far exceeded the limits of her divine sense, despite her recent cultivation breakthrough.

Inside this realm, she felt akin to a deity, her awareness able to focus on every corner, every stone, and every blade of swaying grass. The intricate patterns on them were as clear as if they were in the palm of her hand.

Although she didn’t fully understand why the Soltice Ring had transformed this way, the change was undoubtedly beneficial.

Amalia withdrew her spiritual sense from the ring, only to pause suddenly.

Behind her, one of the glowing orbs floating midair shot toward her like a meteor.

She instinctively prepared to defend, but the light pierced into her body with such speed that she couldn’t react. Her spiritual sense tracked its path—it had entered the Soltice Ring.

Checking the miniature world, she found no disturbances. The light had vanished without a trace.

"I don’t recall hearing about anything unusual being here," Amalia murmured, unable to identify the phenomenon. For now, she chose to set it aside.

She attempted to place some treasures and artifacts into the miniature world within the Soltice Ring, and these items rested securely within the cottage on the hill without being dismantled by the ring’s internal world.

Once assured that there were no issues, she waved her hand, transferring all the treasures in the vault into the miniature world.

As Amalia withdrew her spiritual sense and closed the miniature world, a faint shadow appeared within it, gazing vaguely upward at the white sky.

Boom!

The door to the treasure vault emitted a deafening noise.

"The door’s opening!"

The attackers surrounding Kenny Lin noticed the movement of the treasure vault door, intensifying their assault.

Initially, there had been just one human cultivator and one demonic beast. By now, their ranks had grown to four.

In his effort to prevent them from disturbing Amalia when she repaired her Soltice Ring, Kenny Lin had sustained several injuries.

He was blasted several steps back, retreating a dozen paces. Two powerful cultivators seized this opportunity to rush toward the treasure vault door.

At that moment, a small golden bell flew out from behind the door, rapidly expanding to hundreds of times its size and enclosing the two intruders in complete darkness.

"Something’s wrong!" The two of them immediately attacked the bell that was encasing them.

The relentless dong, dong, dong reverberated, but no matter how they struck, they couldn’t break free of the bell.

Panic set in. "What is this thing? Why can’t we break it open?"

"That’s the Inverse Emperor Bell!" Those people outside, who could see the artifact, were stunned.

The Inverse Emperor Bell was renowned during the Great War of the Immortals. Any experienced cultivator would have heard of this legendary artifact.

It was said that the bell possessed unparalleled defensive capabilities, not only able to protect but also to imprison people. Those people who are trapped within would find their cultivation suppressed by half.

"This kind of treasure must be one of the hidden artifacts of the Nine Heaven Pixiu clan!"

Far from retreating, the cultivators’ eyes burned with greed, their desire intensifying.

Wealth stirs the heart. To these people, these artifacts and treasures were akin to gold, worth risking life and limb.
