Strange Black Bricks
"Strange, there seems to be words on the brick."
Ye Fei looked at the black brick on the ground. He did not know why, but he felt his heart palpitate. Then, he instantly returned to normal, as if the feeling he had felt earlier was just an illusion.
"Huh? Are there words? Why can't I see them?" Wang Bai was a little confused. He quickly pulled the brick out of the bookshelf.
Seeing this, Ye Fei's forehead was dripping with cold sweat. This thing was used to support the bookshelf. If the martial arts manuals on the bookshelf were to fall to the ground because of this, the consequences would be that even if they were not punished, they would still be kicked out by the elders.
After that, Ye Fei found it strange that after the black brick was taken away, it did not sway or fall over. He guessed that the brick might not have been used to support weight. Only then did Ye Fei feel relieved.
"Strange, where are the words on it? Why can't I see them?" Wang Bai picked up the brick and looked around, but he didn't find any words.
Ye Fei couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Then why did you say it was a treasure?"
"Hehe, I thought that the color of this brick was a little strange. Maybe it really is some kind of treasure. I didn't expect that I would make a mistake."
Wang Bai pretended to put the brick back in. At this moment, the position of the brick happened to be at an oblique angle to Ye Fei's eyes.
A line of faint handwriting appeared in front of his eyes again. Even though it was only for a brief moment, Ye Fei was very sure that he hadn't seen wrongly. This black brick was indeed a little strange.
"Wait a minute. Don't put it back yet. Let me take a look." In order to confirm that his eyes weren't playing tricks on him, Ye Fei curiously asked for the black brick. He took a closer look at it but didn't find anything unusual. There was no writing either.
Strange, could it be that I was thinking too much?
Ye Fei thought about the strange feeling he had when the words appeared in his eyes. His heart skipped a beat, and he tilted the brick to take another look. This time, another line of words suddenly entered Ye Fei's eyes.
It was an ancient seal character.
"Strange, there really are words." Ye Fei was a little surprised. He was not seeing things.
"Where is it? Why can't I see it?" Wang Bai came over and asked curiously. He didn't see any words.
"It's clearly on it. Look at it from the corner of your eyes." Ye Fei guessed that the brick was too dark..... and Ye Fei needed to find a way to see it.
"I still don't see anything." Wang Bai squinted and his four eyebrows twitched, but he still didn't find anything.

Ye Fei felt an explosion in his mind. His entire consciousness had entered an incomparably dark space. There was no light in this space. There was no object. There was nothing.
.....................................................
Clang!
In the dark space, a terrifying sword light suddenly appeared and slashed at Ye Fei's consciousness. Ye Fei looked at the sword light in shock. He wanted to resist, but he couldn't muster any strength.
Am I going to die? What kind of place is this? Why is my consciousness being sucked in?
Ye Fei let out a furious roar. He was unwilling to give up, but the sword-light was still moving at an extremely fast speed. It was about to destroy his consciousness. Suddenly, a black sword-light appeared in Ye Fei's consciousness. It quickly met the sword-light that had appeared. In the end, it even swallowed the sword-light in one gulp.
"It's the Undying Sword Soul. It can actually enter my consciousness? It even saved my life. "Ye Fei muttered to himself. He was already feeling a sharp pain in his head.
His forehead was covered in sweat as he came back to his senses. Only then did he realize that he had unknowingly grabbed the black brick in his hand and used all his strength to smash it towards his head. If Ye Fei's consciousness hadn't returned, it was very likely that he would have used the brick to smash himself to death.
"What the hell is this? Why is it so strange?"
Ye Fei's heart was still beating fast. Wang Bai was also shocked by Ye Fei's actions. "Ye Fei, are you alright? Even if you feel inferior and aren't as handsome as me, you don't have to feel inferior to the point of smashing yourself to death with a brick."
"..."
Ye Fei suddenly felt that the person who should be smashed to death with the brick wasn't him, but Wang Bai in front of him. He really didn't know how to make friends.
"Wang Bai, I'm going to take this back and study it." Ye Fei felt that this black brick might really be a treasure. It just so happened that the Undying Sword Soul could still suppress it. Naturally, he wouldn't miss this opportunity.
"But this black brick doesn't seem to have any restrictions on it. It also doesn't indicate how many contribution points you need to exchange for it. The Elder probably won't let you exchange for it. If you really take it, it might arouse the Elder's suspicion." Wang Bai suddenly reminded Ye Fei.
Ye Fei suddenly felt very depressed. What was more depressing than discovering a treasure but not being able to exchange for it? He couldn't just stay here and use the Undying Sword Soul to study this black brick, right?
"Can't you think of another way?" Ye Fei was very unwilling to give up. Discovering a treasure but returning empty-handed was not his style.
At this moment, Wang Bai was no longer obtuse. He even winked at Ye Fei shrewdly. "Hehe, this thing doesn't have any restriction on it. In other people's eyes, it's just a weirdly colored brick. Why don't we just take it away?"
"Eh, Wang Bai, are you trying to instigate me to steal it?"
Ye Fei's face darkened. Stealing from the most important Achievement Hall in the Holy Lands? Only Wang Bai could think of such a thing. However, when he thought of the terrifying sword radiance in the black brick, Ye Fei hesitated for a moment. In the end, he still decided to do something big!
"I hope the Elder won't find out." Ye Fei gritted his teeth. Taking advantage of the fact that Wang Bai walked in front of him and blocked his view, Ye Fei gritted his teeth and closed his eyes. He decisively put the black brick into his space bag.
"Anyway, the Holy Lands are big and this black brick is just an ordinary brick used to prop up the bookshelves. Even if the Elder finds out, he probably won't punish me too much."
Ye Fei comforted himself. Then, he exchanged a look with Wang Bai. Then, the two of them walked towards the entrance of the Martial Skills Hall with a clear conscience.
There was a Martial Honorable Realm Elder sitting there as a guard. If this Elder found out that someone was stealing from the Holy Lands, this Elder probably wouldn't even need to do anything. He would kill Ye Fei and Wang Bai in one breath.
The only thing that gave Ye Fei some confidence was that the Elder didn't attach any importance to the black brick that he was holding. There were no restrictions placed on it, so the chances of the Elder discovering it was very low. But even if he thought like this, when he walked past the Elder, Ye Fei still felt a bit nervous.
