There were many such legends in the Bound of Universe. Feng Guohai himself knew of no less than a dozen of them. Despite his shock, he was not surprised. He even had a subtle feeling that this was how it was, and that it made sense.
"It's not the God's Grave," said Yun Yang, "It should be the Spirit's … Grave."
"The Spirit's Grave …" Feng Guohai's jaw dropped, his eyes filled with shock.
He had never heard of such a term before. How was he going to explain it?
"Actually, I don't know what the Spirit's Grave means either. I only found these four words when I entered, so I'm just repeating them here."
Yun Yang sighed softly. "I've only taken a few steps with all my might, but the wounds on my body, both internal and external, have all healed within these few steps."
"Then, I found countless purple crystals in front of me …" said Yun Yang.
"Countless … purple crystals …" Feng Guohai mumbled.
Feng Guohai murmured. He felt his breathing quicken, his mouth parched.
Countless purple crystals. Looking at the Ethereal Amethysts in front of him, how could Feng Guohai not know what these so-called 'purple crystals' were?
Feng Guohai felt himself trembling. He felt like he could be annihilated by his impulsiveness at any time, so he grabbed the young man before him and interrogated him about the whereabouts of the countless purple crystals.
"I went over instinctively, but I realized that I couldn't go over at all. My body was strangely frozen and I couldn't move. A wispy voice came from the thick fog. I've never been to such a strange place before, but the voice knew my name and knew everything about my life …" Yun Yang's face was still filled with lingering fear.
Feng Guohai sucked in a deep breath and said, "It's said that when one's cultivation base reaches the level of a Saint, one can see through a person's past and present life with just a glance. I didn't expect such a person to exist in this world …"
"The voice told me that my physique is unique. It's the ethereal physique that doesn't appear for tens of thousands of years … I'm the only fated person in the Spirit's Grave. Therefore, he saved my life and used my blood to break the void to open a door to the Spirit's Grave from the outside. Each time it's opened, it only lasts half an hour. As for me, I can only advance ten steps in here. If I exceed the time limit, I will be immediately expelled by the space. "
Feng Guohai nodded slowly, his expression growing more serious.
Until now, he did not doubt Yun Yang's words at all.
Yun Yang's cultivation base, his age, and the fact that he had ascended from the lower realm – the combination of these three factors was enough to prove the truth of his words. Most importantly, there were many such legends in the Bound of Universe.
The lucky ones who entered the Graveyard of Gods would always encounter all sorts of strange phenomena …
Although the known phenomenon was very different from what Yun Yang had described, those who entered were basically unable to move freely. They could only advance a very, very small distance each time. There were even more restrictions than what Yun Yang had encountered.
From this point alone, it was similar to what Yun Yang had said, further proving the credibility of his statement.
"Since then, only I can enter the Spirit's Grave alone. It can only be opened with my blood essence, and only my physical body can enter. Each time I enter, I can get something in return, such as this Ethereal Amethyst," said Yun Yang.
"It's probably the rarer it is, the more precious it is. Before this, I actually didn't know the correct way to use the Ethereal Amethyst. I only used it to absorb the energy within. Now that I think about it, I've wasted a lot of it!"
Feng Guohai nodded and shook his head, obviously feeling sorry for Yun Yang's actions. With his sharp eyes, how could he not see that Yun Yang was really only in his early twenties? This could not be faked. If it were not for the assistance of an extraordinary item like the Ethereal Amethyst and the considerable consumption, how could he have achieved such a state in a realm outside of the Bound of Universe? Everything made sense now!
Yun Yang continued, "There's gain and there's loss. I've received a lot of cultivation from the Spirit's Grave and I need to get something in return. My return is to complete some tasks for the Spirit's Grave each time I enter."
"For example …" Feng Guohai asked tentatively.
"Cough … Actually, I'm here to sell the Ethereal Amethyst this time mainly because of the Spirit's Grave's mission. Ninety percent of the upper-class spiritual jade pieces I've obtained from the trade have to be returned to the Spirit's Grave. Only then can I have the chance to retrieve something from the Spirit's Grave again."
Yun Yang sighed. "The conditions to open the grave are extremely harsh. My body, blood, and opportunity are indispensable. Once there's a lack of it, the opportunity will never come again."
Feng Guohai nodded in agreement. "That's for sure."
His mind raced rapidly, considering the credibility of Yun Yang's matter and the degree of feasibility of it.
After a long while, he finally came to a decision. The credibility of this matter was less than fifty percent at the moment. If there was a next time, perhaps he could follow Yun Yang to take a look, then this matter would be a hundred percent credible.
However, how could he allow others to go to a place like the Spirit's Grave?
Was he going to bet everything on the next trade? Would he not be under someone else's control for a long time?
A thousand thoughts ran through his mind, and for a moment, a look of hesitation appeared on his face.
"Now that I've ascended to the Bound of Universe, my horizons are vastly different from the past. The most important purpose of coming out this time is to find a reliable partner. What the Spirit's Grave needs now is something I can't achieve alone. Instead of watching the opportunity vanish into thin air or perish because I can't complete the mission, it's better to find a partner. It's a win-win situation. "Yun Yang sighed.
Yun Yang sighed. "The so-called peddling of ten pieces of Ethereal Amethysts is just a pretense, a prelude."
"Pretense? Catalyst? "
Feng Guohai frowned slightly and said, "Young brother, the most important thing in doing business is honesty."
"If it wasn't so, how would I have come to your shop? How would I have told you the whole story so frankly?"
Yun Yang nodded and said honestly, "A promise is a promise. These ten pieces of Ethereal Amethyst will be sold in your shop. Then … if it's convenient for you, Keeper Feng, we can look for a secluded spot and observe what the Spirit's Grave is. Then, we'll talk about the next step of cooperation. Is my sincerity sufficient this way? "
Feng Guohai's eyes lit up abruptly.
"Young Master Yun, are you serious?"
"How is it not? The Spirit's Grave is already half-dead to me. If the partner isn't harmonious, it'll still be empty." Yun Yang sighed. "I can't help it."
