I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

”That river is the River of Eternal Darkness.”

Big Golden Fur spoke.

”I’ve heard of this name.” Han Zhan searched his memory for the introduction about the River of Eternal Darkness.

The River of Eternal Darkness is where the Dawn Organization uses anchors to stabilize it, and where they salvage antique artifacts and summon destined individuals.

Han Zhan always thought that the so-called River of Eternal Darkness must be a sacred place very important to the Dawn Organization.

Similar to the Blood River’s significance to the Blood Race, such a situation.

However, what Han Zhan didn’t expect was that the River of Eternal Darkness could actually be the culprit of universe destruction?

”Among us Old Era Remnants, those with outstanding abilities are selected to become members of Dawn.”

”The existence of Dawn is to collect ’anchors’ from the current cosmos, and then throw the collected ’anchors’ into the River of Eternal Darkness to stabilize its riverbed.”

It wasn’t until today that Big Golden Fur fully disclosed Dawn’s most fundamental secret to Han Zhan.

Because they come from the same universe.

Because Han Zhan is also an Old Era Remnant!

”Throwing ’anchors’ into the River of Eternal Darkness to stabilize its riverbed allows you to obtain those antique artifacts?”

After a brief silence, Han Zhan adjusted his mood and asked.

”Not necessarily. If antique artifacts were so easy to obtain, Dawn should have already dominated the cosmos.”

”Antique artifacts aren’t that easy to obtain. Or rather, acquiring antique artifacts requires ninety-nine percent luck and one percent courage.”

Hmm? Luck? Courage? What kind of strange description is this.

Big Golden Fur fixed his gaze on the River of Eternal Darkness above and continued explaining:

”There are two ways to obtain antique artifacts.”

”One way is to go to the banks of the River of Eternal Darkness. If luck is on your side, some antique artifacts might wash ashore. Of course, besides antique artifacts, other miscellaneous things might also be washed ashore from the River of Eternal Darkness.”

For instance, the bicycle, radio, glass beads Han Zhan saw earlier...

”But even the banks of the River of Eternal Darkness aren’t open to just anyone; one must carry at least a small anchor.”

The role of the small anchor is to stabilize the riverbed.

An anchor can actually be carried around? This was different from Han Zhan’s imagined method of stabilizing the riverbed.

”The River of Eternal Darkness flows endlessly and never stops; its waters possess an unimaginable devouring power, capable of completely engulfing the entire cosmos, not to mention any gods, even the Creator God is helpless.”

”Therefore, even getting close to the River of Eternal Darkness, the evaporating mist nearby also possesses devouring power and is extremely dangerous.”

The anchor can negate the devouring power.

Relying on the protection of anchors, Dawn can transform into scavengers, picking up ’trash’ along the banks of the River of Eternal Darkness.

The collected ’trash’ would be categorized, with the most valuable being antique artifacts, but not all antique artifacts are useful.

Some antique artifacts, though carrying the name, are actually of no use at all.

That’s why Dawn Number Two says acquiring antique artifacts requires ninety-nine percent luck.

”And what’s the other method?”

”The second method is to go onto the River of Eternal Darkness, rowing to salvage items sunk at the river bottom.”

Gulp.

Han Zhan swallowed saliva.

He glanced again at the pitch-black surging River of Eternal Darkness, finding it hard to imagine what kind of experience it would be to row a boat on that fearsome river capable of destroying an entire cosmos.

Now he understood what that one percent courage was all about.

After clearing up the true source of antique artifacts and the related use of anchors, the questions in this area were temporarily resolved.

Han Zhan nodded slightly, then changed the subject.

”If the River of Eternal Darkness can destroy a cosmos, why does it appear in the Pot World?”

Could it be that the Pot World is more powerful than the River of Eternal Darkness?

The answer is no.

”The River of Eternal Darkness is definitely stronger than the Pot World, countless times stronger; this is indisputable.”

”The reason the Pot World can contain the River of Eternal Darkness is actually a clever trick.”

The source of the River of Eternal Darkness is at the mouth of the pot in the Pot World, where the turbulent dark river begins to flow down.

The endpoint of the River of Eternal Darkness is the bottom of the pot in the Pot World, where all the waters of the River of Eternal Darkness flow and converge.

”Listening to this, you might find it strange why the waters of the River of Eternal Darkness constantly fall at the source, and where the waters go at the end.”

”In reality, they complete a loop, a space loop.”

Big Golden Fur spoke up at this point, and Han Zhan understood.

”Utilizing space loops, setting a space transmission array at both the bottom and the mouth of the pot, when the River of Eternal Darkness converges at the bottom of the pot, it gets re-transmitted to the mouth of the pot through the space transmission array.”

”In this way, the River of Eternal Darkness will endlessly surge in the Pot World, allowing the Dawn Organization to keep salvaging, strengthening themselves!”

Big Golden Fur nodded gently, affirming Han Zhan’s guess.

”However, because the River of Eternal Darkness is extremely terrifying, anchors need to be continuously thrown in to keep it constrained in the Pot World to prevent it from completely losing control.”

”Moreover, Dawn Number One must always remain stationed at the endpoint of the River of Eternal Darkness, unable to leave even for a moment.”

This indirectly explains why, when Dawn Number One descends, only an arm appears, not the entire body.

After hearing all this, the related information about the River of Eternal Darkness is now comprehensively understood.

”What does Dawn wish me to do?”

Suddenly, Han Zhan posed a question.

He wasn’t foolish, nor a novice, knowing full well no one is kind for no reason; every gift is actually tagged with a price in the shadows.

Therefore, Han Zhan wanted to clarify why Dawn saved him and shared so many secrets, what they ultimately want to achieve?

Unexpectedly, Big Golden Fur shook his head.

”I don’t know either.”

”You don’t know?” Han Zhan was startled.

”Yes, I don’t know. Because this plan isn’t actually led by me, Dawn Number One is in charge, and what he wants, his intentions, I am unclear.”

”Or, if the chance arises, you could ask him face-to-face.”

Big Golden Fur said this while wagging his tail.

”Then you...” Han Zhan glanced at Big Golden Fur, initially wanting to ask why he was telling him so much.

His words were interrupted by Big Golden Fur.

”All right, saying more won’t be as profound as seeing with your own eyes.”

”Let’s go, you haven’t seen these things in a long time, have you? Let’s move forward.”

”Ahead, surprises await you.”

Big Golden Fur took a few steps forward and turned his head, extending an invitation.
