Chapter 1749 - 1181: Something That Belongs to Me (Part 2)
"Therefore, you’ll have to make contact with what’s in there yourself."
From this perspective, the High Priest does indeed seem like a true clergy member indifferent to worldly affairs, no longer resembling a witch.
"You really do... hmm, have quite an open mind."
Reiger could only comment like this.
"Anyway, our predecessors didn’t leave any instructions, saying things like outsiders must absolutely not be allowed entry." The High Priest blinked and said, "I don’t want to be like people from the outside world, fighting desperately with an opponent who has no chance of winning over something we’re supposed to guard."
Reiger couldn’t help feeling a bit speechless.
Indeed, if it were the outside world, an outsider like himself coming to someone else’s territory, loudly claiming to take away an important treasure sealed by the ancestors would definitely lead to conflict.
Even if he didn’t have that intention, if the other party discovered he had the means to break the seal, they might still have sinister thoughts.
It’s only here in this Hidden Land, where everyone is so open-minded and unconcerned with overly guarding their possessions, that such a generous situation could occur.
"I’m leaving, take your time."
Having left these words, the High Priest turned around decisively and drifted away.
"... Hard to believe she’s almost a 90-year-old granny."
Watching the High Priest’s light departure, Reiger silently grumbled in his heart.
Then, Reiger turned around to look again at the rockery in front of him.
To be honest, he couldn’t see any seals set up here at all.
This proved the level of magic proficiency of the High Priest and Priests during the Ancient Magic Civilization Period.
After learning from documents and the High Priest that Yuloli had fought against the "King of Calamity" in the temple dedicated to the Dimensional Magic Cube, causing the cube to disperse beyond the world, but inadvertently leaving behind some things, Reiger developed a kind of intuitive premonition.
He felt that something that should belong to him was right here.
And the key to entering this rockery and breaking the seal—he already had a clue.
After all, that key has been with him for a long time, and he has studied it for a long time.
"Let me see if it’s true."
Reiger instantly retrieved two items from the Dimensional Magic Cube Storage Space in his mind.
Lo and behold, they were the two beast skin maps.
One of these beast skin maps was obtained from Liz, and the other was found in the Neutral City of Cyrus.
But now, thinking carefully, these two beast skin maps might both have flowed out from the relics of Reinnaier.
The beast skin map in Liz’s possession was left to her by Mia, and Mia most likely obtained this beast skin map from Reinnaier’s relics, where she also found the Moslo Sword.
Think about it; such an important holy artifact like the Moslo Sword, since the Tistis family responsible for burying Yuloli did not take it away, it was probably placed in Yuloli’s burial chamber as a burial item.
Mia obtained the Moslo Sword from inside, so the beast skin map handed over to Liz together with the Moslo Sword was very likely brought out from that relic as well.
As for the beast skin map appearing in the Neutral City of Cyrus, it was already clearly stated at the time that someone had brought it out from the ancient relic there.
Reiger also felt the same aura from these two beast skin maps as from the Holy Sword, so much so that he suspected that the strange iron used as the core material of the Holy Sword and the beast skin maps came from the same place.
Now it seems there is indeed a causal relationship between them.
"Let’s get started."
Reiger walked forward to the front of the rockery and placed the two beast skin maps in his hand onto the mountain body.
"Zing—"
Instantly, the lines on the two beast skin maps began to emit a soft glow.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
As if ignited by some invisible force, the two beast skin maps suddenly burst into flames.
Flames with no temperature burned the beast skin maps, causing them to gradually turn to ashes.
In the ashes, ancient mysterious runes suddenly appeared, swimming, forming, and merging on the mountain body like they were alive.
Before long, a magnificent magic array appeared before Reiger.
Reiger immediately looked at the center of the magic array.
There, a groove clearly meant to hold something was visible.
"Just as I thought..."
Reiger smiled slightly and pulled off a green gemstone pendant from his neck.
It was the Ancient Secret Treasure, the world-class item Reiger obtained from the treasure vault of Ginas Kingdom—the Meloi God.
Whether it was the Meloi God or the beast skin maps, they once, like the Holy Sword, touched Reiger inexplicably.
Now, it can be confirmed that this green gemstone pendant is the key to opening the seal before him.
"I suppose this was obtained from the resting place of the former Priests?"
The Meloi God is an Ancient Secret Treasure, a relic from the Ancient Magic Civilization. This is a certainty.
However, Reiger didn’t know from which ancient relic it appeared.
But the High Priest had already said that it was the last Priests of the Ancient Magic Civilization who came here and set up this seal.
Thus, the Meloi God being the key to the seal, the possibility of it being brought into the Priests’ tomb is high.
The ancient relic from which Ginas Kingdom obtained the Meloi God should be the Priests’ gravesite.
As for why the beast skin maps weren’t in the Priests’ gravesite but in Yuloli’s burial chamber, Reiger didn’t know.
Perhaps the Priests handed them to the Tistis family, and then the Tistis family placed them inside...
Perhaps Yuloli had deliberately instructed this during her lifetime...
Regardless, they are now in Reiger’s possession.
One can only say, this truly is the guidance of destiny.
"Clack..."
With a soft sound, Reiger embedded the green gemstone on the pendant into the groove in the center of the magic array.
"Rumble..."
Only then did the rockery start to tremble, as if awakening, beginning to undergo violent changes.
In a tremor, the magic array with the green gemstone pendant sank into the mountain body, causing the rocks on the mountain body to begin to fall inward, vanishing into thin air.
After a while, a part of the rockery’s mountain body completely disappeared before Reiger, leaving only a cave entrance large enough for a person to pass through, resting quietly there.
Reiger watched for a while, then stepped inside.
Thus, he entered the interior of the rockery, stepping into a vast space.
It was like a secluded cave.
Inside the cave, there was only one altar-like platform.
Reiger approached and paused before the platform.
He raised his head to gaze at the top of the platform.
There, a statue was floating.
A cube-like statue resembling a Rubik’s cube that appeared no different from the "god" that people of the Ancient Magic Civilization believed in.
However, the Rubik’s cube statue, nearly identical to those external statues, contained an extremely vast amount of energy within itself.
If someone else came here, they might not even know what that vast energy was.
No, they might not even be able to feel that energy.
The energy is unlike ordinary power, capable of allowing one to transcend time and space, achieving miracles between dimensions.
That is—
"Dimension Energy..."
An immense, vast, infinite Dimension Energy appeared before Reiger.
In the next moment—
"Buzz—"
The transparent Dimensional Magic Cube in Reiger’s mind seemed to sense its own power, suddenly trembling intensely.
