Chapter 590 Chapter563-An Unexpected Windfall
So, having decided to take direct action to gain control of the Mystery Eye Gemstone, John was prepared to exert his full power.
He threw the Book of the Astral Realm from his pocket.
The moment it was drawn from John\'s pocket, it sealed all the surrounding Mystery forces.
Although the sealing power of the Book of the Astral Realm wasn\'t directly targeting the Mystery Eye Gemstone, the powerful residual sealing force temporarily sealed the curses emanating from the gemstone.
With the assistance of the Book of the Astral Realm\'s astral powers, John no longer needed to focus all his energy on countering the curses from the Mystery Eye Gemstone.
He released the Abyssal Prison to ensure his immediate safety and then used double blink to position himself directly in front of the Mystery Eye Gemstone.
The Mystery Eye Gemstone also emerged from the sealing effect of the Book of the Astral Realm.
The black pupil at its center expanded several times in size, and the power of its curses intensified significantly.
The immense power of the curse momentarily overwhelmed John, causing a severe headache and a slight loss of consciousness.
He knew he had to gain control of the Mystery Eye Gemstone quickly.
John gathered all his focus and pulled out a Token of Holy Light from his pocket, then firmly pressed it onto the Mystery Eye Gemstone.
The purpose of the Token of Holy Light is to help players gain ownership of any piece of equipment.
Using the Token of Holy Light allows a player to fully control that piece of equipment, meaning that the equipment\'s adverse effects would have a significantly reduced impact on the player.
When the Token of Holy Light was pressed onto the Mystery Eye Gemstone, the curse\'s power from the gemstone diminished greatly.
John seized this opportunity to cast Abyssal Prison once again.
The effects of the two Abyssal Prisons significantly strengthened the defensive shield around John.
Although he was still under attack from the surrounding Mystery forces, they could no longer pose a fatal threat to him.
John was finally able to retrieve the Book of the Astral Realm.
He could now use the power of the Book of the Astral Realm to accelerate the activation of the Token of Holy Light.
It didn\'t take long for the Token of Holy Light to take effect.
The Mystery Eye Gemstone became John\'s owned Sacred Relic.
Only after becoming its master did he uncover the hidden attributes of the Mystery Eye Gemstone.
Beyond the properties John had discovered through the Detection spell, the Mystery Eye Gemstone possessed additional hidden attributes, notably a degree of spatial authority.
Embedding the Mystery Eye Gemstone into the Book of the Astral Realm would significantly enhance the space seal powers of the book.
If John\'s assumptions were correct, he might even use the synergy between these two Sacred Relics to teleport directly to the Dark Realm from any location.
Realizing the potential cooperation between these relics, John was naturally overjoyed, as this represented an unexpected boon.
He hadn\'t anticipated that his visit to the Southern Harbor would not only secure him the Mystery Eye Gemstone but also facilitate his subsequent actions.
"It seems my venture here has been incredibly fruitful. Now that the curse on the Southern Harbor has been lifted, I should return promptly. I imagine the other champions of the Order Faction are growing impatient."
After ensuring there were no lingering curses of Mystery power around, John prepared to head back to the surface of the Southern Harbor.
Just as he was about to turn away, John suddenly felt an unknown presence behind him, watching him intently.
Although he detected this presence, he didn\'t take any immediate action, because his earlier Detection spell hadn\'t revealed this mysterious entity, implying that the entity\'s power was exceptionally formidable.
So, pretending as if nothing was amiss, John continued forward.
When he neared the bronze door, he took out his Book of the Astral Realm and combined it with the Mystery Eye Gemstone.
John could feel a powerful spatial fluctuation emanating from the synergy of the two Sacred Relics.
Seizing the moment when the spatial fluctuations began to affect the entire underground area, John cast Detection spell once again.
This time, his Detection spell revealed the unknown entity, which turned out to be a creature immensely powerful in Mystery forces.
The Detection spell not only exposed the creature\'s presence to John but also alerted the creature to John\'s use of the spell.
Sensing its discovery, the formidable Mystery creature immediately launched an attack on John.
However, it was clear that the creature\'s attack could not pose a significant threat to John.
He was already prepared for battle, and the Sacred Relics in his possession were immensely powerful.
Using the power of the Book of the Astral Realm, John easily sealed the creature.
With the creature now sealed, John took the opportunity to closely examine this Mystery monster.
After observing it for a while, John realized that this creature was quite different from the Mystery monsters he had encountered before.
He could tell that the creature possessed formidable Mystery power, but its form bore no resemblance to any Mystery monsters he had previously encountered.
This was unprecedented across any faction, as the creations of any faction are usually related to the faction\'s inherent powers, implying certain commonalities among the creatures of each faction.
After a moment\'s contemplation, John directly addressed the creature, "Why do you look so different from the other Mystery monsters? Is there such a significant variance among you Mystery creatures?"
John\'s tone wasn\'t particularly friendly, which might have come across as provocative to the creature.
Consequently, the Mystery monster did not respond, only glaring at John with eyes full of anger.
"I can understand if you don\'t want to answer my question. However, you should also consider your own situation carefully. My patience is quite limited, and if you\'re unwilling to answer my question, I\'ll have no choice but to eliminate you. After that, perhaps I could join forces with Ocean Sage to summon your spirit back. Then, your spirit would be able to tell me everything you know. I\'ll give you one last chance to answer my question."
Despite the casual tone of John\'s voice, his expression was resolute.
He needed the Mystery creature to understand that he wasn\'t bluffing.
After carefully observing John\'s determined expression, the Mystery creature realized that John wasn\'t just making empty threats.
After a moment of hesitation, it responded to John\'s question.
"I don\'t know what other Mystery creatures you\'re talking about. I have always been here for as long as I have memory and have never encountered any other Mystery creatures from different places. I\'m not even aware if there are other creatures like me elsewhere."
The creature\'s response took John by surprise.
However, after some thought, John considered that what the creature said might indeed be true.
Considering the area where the creature resided had been sealed by Ocean Sage a long time ago, it was reasonable that a Mystery creature born from Mystery power within this sealed area would be unaware of other Mystery creatures.
After some thought, John decided to temporarily seal the Mystery creature in place, as it didn\'t seem to bear significant hostility towards him.
John was aware that the Mystery creature had several opportunities to attack him previously but chose not to do so under those circumstances.
The creature only launched an attack after John had detected its presence, suggesting that it might have been compelled to act defensively.
"Since you\'re unaware of other Mystery creatures, I\'ll spare you for now. However, you must stay here. I will place another seal to ensure you cannot leave," John stated after making his decision.
Having said this, John walked through the bronze door and returned to Southern Harbor, leaving the Mystery creature behind with an unchanged expression on its face.
