Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Chapter 302 Basement

That's why they quickly followed the route map and ran there.

Along the way, all I could see was water flowing into the entire basement.

However, Xu Yao had no problem at all. The protective shield provided by the system directly kept all the water out of Xu Yao's sight.

Xu Yao then said directly, "System, you've done something pretty good."

"If you hadn't done the right thing this time, then as your host, I'm afraid I would really be in deep trouble."

Following the terrain map provided by the system, Xu Yao kept running forward, and soon he saw that it wasn't far ahead.

At this moment, Xu Yao also noticed a large gate in front of him. Without even thinking, he rushed to the gate.

Then he opened the door and rushed inside.

Upon entering the gate, a coffin appeared before Xu Yao. Seeing the coffin, Xu Yao exclaimed, "There's actually a coffin here?"

"Could it be the founding ancestor of Yunzhuang?" Xu Yao asked curiously.

However, at that moment, Xu Yao also saw a faint light appear inside the coffin.

Upon seeing the light, Xu Yao curiously opened the coffin lid.

At this moment, a bead appeared inside the coffin, and this bead was quite strange.

The entire bead is about the same size as an ordinary luminous pearl, but it emits a purple light.

However, the light was truly beautiful, and Xu Yao was quite surprised when he saw the purple bead.

Xu Yao picked up the bead and examined it carefully in his hand.

How to describe this bead? It doesn't seem to possess any special power whatsoever.

Xu Yao felt that it was a very strange bead, but there was nothing else about it.

This also made Xu Yao feel that there was really nothing strange about this bead.

Seeing this, Xu Yao said, "No matter what, I've found this bead."

"Let's see what this bead is good for first."

After saying that, Xu Yao put the bead in his arms. Since the system said it was a treasure, he would just keep it as such for now.

Soon, the water flooded the stone chamber again, leaving Xu Yao with nowhere to go.

Fortunately, he had a protective membrane on his body, so the water didn't drown him. Instead, it formed a very strange protective layer around Xu Yao.

Not long after, Xu Yao saw that the stone chamber was filled with water, which had completely submerged it.

Xu Yao was floating inside the stone chamber, giving the impression that he was swimming in it.

To be honest, this was the first time Xu Yao had seen the protective shield his system had created for him, and it actually looked quite interesting.

To be honest, Xu Yao wasn't worried at the moment, because he thought the protective shield could also draw in air, and he wouldn't drown.

Isn't this really amazing?

Because he was very tired recently, Xu Yao quickly fell asleep.

When I woke up again, I was surrounded by water.

Xu Yao didn't know how long he had slept, but at least he was safe for now.

Xu Yao then sat up and took the purple bead out of his pocket.

Looking at the purple bead in front of him, Xu Yao muttered to himself, "What exactly is this thing?"

"Why is this? Now that I've found it, this bead is mine."

As Xu Yao spoke, he tried to channel the spiritual energy within his body into the bead.

Xu Yao tentatively channeled his spiritual energy into the bead, only to discover that the bead seemed to completely absorb his spiritual energy.

Upon seeing this situation, Xu Yao increased his efforts and directly channeled spiritual energy into the source.

To be honest, Xu Yao also found the situation very strange; this bead seemed like a bottomless pit.

No matter how much Xu Yao typed, he couldn't fill this bottomless pit.

Upon seeing this, Xu Yao remarked, "Not bad, not bad at all. Things have gotten out of hand like this."

"Let's see how this little bead fares." Seeing this, Xu Yao continued to pour more spiritual energy into the bead.

In the end, Xu Yao felt that the spiritual energy in his body had been almost completely absorbed.

Xu Yao still couldn't sense any sign of the bead becoming full.

"You really are something special," Xu Yao said, panting heavily.

Just then, the bead in Xu Yao's hand began to slowly emit a purple light.

Then, it flew to the top of Xu Yao's head and began to slowly circle above him.

Xu Yao was also very surprised to see this, because the bead gave people a very strange feeling.

The reason why this happened is completely uncertain, but Xu Yao's spiritual power has been almost completely drained.

Therefore, Xu Yao himself had no way of saying that he could get the bead back.

However, Xu Yao soon saw the bead fly up to the top of his head.

Then it emitted a purple light directly towards the area below its head.

Xu Yao felt something surging inside his body, and the next second, he felt his dantian begin to churn rapidly.

"What is this?" Xu Yao looked at the changes in his body and was quite surprised.

This is truly amazing. Could this bead have the effect of increasing one's cultivation level? That must be why.

Seeing this, Xu Yao knew that this was a golden opportunity and he couldn't miss it, so he began to slowly try to accept the power released by the bead.

Soon, the bead released all its power.

Xu Yao then discovered that the bead was rapidly activating his entire body.

Seeing this, Xu Yao knew that he had encountered an extraordinary adventure this time.

So Xu Yao quickly began to devote himself to cultivation.

Thus, Xu Yao also felt that something was strange inside his body, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

However, Xu Yao continued to hold onto this feeling.
