Ordinary mahjong tiles are generally made of plastic, while the better ones are made of wood or horn.

But this mahjong tile...

Chen Yan couldn't discern its material!

Holding it in his hand, there was a slight warm feeling to it, yet it was definitely not any kind of jade.

Its color was slightly yellowish, with a hint of an aged scent, but it didn't seem truly old. Instead, it felt like it naturally carried a sense of antiquity.

A very faint Primordial Qi fluctuation could be sensed, but calling it a fluctuation wasn't quite accurate; it felt more like a certain kind of rhythm.

A very subtle, very gentle rhythm.

It could block the Heavenly Dao's fortune; in simple terms, it could block celestial opportunities.

From what Chen Yan had learned, this kind of treasure surely contained some sort of hidden, sophisticated Array inside.

Or perhaps it was some kind of strange and rare heavenly treasure?

Yet Chen Yan was certain of one thing!

Although this item was now in his hand, it hadn't been "activated," nor was it blocking his fortune!

Chen Yan could clearly see his fortune's fluctuations.

This wasn't surprising.

This thing wasn't some kind of radar; just being near it wouldn't cause blocking or detection.

If that were the case, when the old man was alive, would anyone standing next to him or sitting close to him also be blocked? Certainly not!

So there had to be some special usage method.

But the old man didn't mention anything before he died, even though he gave it to me.

He definitely didn't forget, and it wasn't like he purposely kept it a secret.

Rather...

More likely, the old man himself didn't know how to use it either.

·

Chen Yan sighed.

The old lady left behind many strange items.

The ring was magical enough, and now he got this mahjong tile.

But... equally, he didn't know how to use it at all.

The old lady didn't leave any instructions behind.

·

Chen Yan tried to drip a drop of blood on it, but there was no reaction.

Chen Yan wasn't too disappointed; after all, he didn't have any immediate need to "block the Heavenly Dao."

But in the future...

Suddenly, Chen Yan felt a shock in his heart!!

"If this item can be activated and worn, and it can block the world's Heavenly Dao... then...

Could it evade this world's Heavenly Dao suppression and allow one to cultivate into the Celestial Human Realm?!"

Even...

Chen Yan instinctively glanced in a certain direction—the direction of the house belonging to the half-step Venerable little girl in the neighborhood!

"If she wears it and it can be activated... could she also evade the Heavenly Lightning of Heavenly Dao and come out from the Mirror World?"

With these thoughts flashing in his mind, Chen Yan's interest suddenly surged!

If blood doesn't work...

Chen Yan gripped the mahjong tile and tried to infuse it with Primordial Qi.

Slight traces of Primordial Qi were injected, and there was no response.

Chen Yan pondered and increased the rate of Primordial Qi infusion, from trace by trace to strand by strand, and eventually, it became a substantial flow...

Moments later, sweat appeared on Chen Yan's forehead.

His own Primordial Qi unknowingly was depleted, and after infusing all of his Primordial Qi, the mahjong tile still showed no response?

This isn't right! The things left behind by the old lady, be it the mahjong tile or the ring...

Are they both just bottomless pits?!

Chen Yan became somewhat stubborn—having infused all of his Primordial Qi, he had no immediate means of recovery, needing several sessions of meditation to replenish it.

Yet he didn't want to stop or give up!

"A bottomless pit, huh? Let's see if you truly are an endless abyss!"

With this thought coursing through his mind, Chen Yan directly took out an Ink Spirit Crystal.

He still had two fully charged Ink Spirit Crystals in his possession, so he unceremoniously extracted Primordial Qi and continued to infuse it into the mahjong tile.

After half an hour, both Ink Spirit Crystals were depleted.

"Ha! I refuse to believe this!"

Chen Yan gritted his teeth, put away the Ink Spirit Crystal, and took out the ring!

He placed the ring on his left thumb, taking a deep breath.

He began a task he had never done before.

He started extracting Primordial Qi from the ring!

·

The method to extract Primordial Qi from the ring was no different than extracting from the Ink Spirit Crystal.

Initially, Chen Yan smoothly extracted a stream of Primordial Qi from the ring, which cycled through his body before being infused into the mahjong tile.

Soon, as per Chen Yan's estimation, the amount of Primordial Qi he extracted from the ring was about the same as his full energy level under normal circumstances.

After fully infusing it into the mahjong tile, there was still no response.

However, just as Chen Yan continued to extract Primordial Qi from the ring...

"Huh?"

Chen Yan's expression changed.

The speed of extraction suddenly slowed down, and the flow of Primordial Qi increasingly diminished...

It wasn't that the ring's Primordial Qi was exhausted, but rather...

The ring seemed to have a force pulling back the Primordial Qi he was extracting, preventing it from leaving!

Meanwhile, what made Chen Yan feel even more strange was this.

He felt a trace of "will" from the ring!

It was as if something alive, with intention or emotion, was inside the ring.

In any case, Chen Yan could feel it.

The ring's will expressed dissatisfaction!

As Chen Yan extracted more Primordial Qi, the discontent became increasingly apparent.

Eventually...

Chen Yan abruptly released his grip.

He couldn't extract even a trace more of Primordial Qi!

No matter how he urged it, the ring seemed to have a closed gate, locking the Primordial Qi inside, refusing to let Chen Yan extract even a tiny bit!
