The Man's Decree

Jared hurriedly shielded his eyes before gradually looking ahead. Soon, he realized he had already reached the end of the cave.

At the cave’s end was a distinct stone door adorned with various artworks that even he couldn’t decipher. “There are indeed people who live here…”

Upon seeing the stone door, Jared was certain that someone had been living there.

Treading cautiously, Jared approached and placed his hand on the stone door. Then, he channeled a surge of spiritual energy into it.

Jared wanted to check for traps inside the stone door. It would be too risky to recklessly push it open.

After realizing there were no traps behind it, Jared pushed the door open forcefully.

Beyond the stone door, there surprisingly lay a modest stone chamber brimming with all sorts of magical items. These items shimmered vibrantly, casting their radiance in all directions.

Moreover, they were imbued with an incredibly intense fiery aura.

Jared was utterly stunned upon seeing these treasures. He wasn’t sure if these objects had acquired their fiery aura from being in this place for years or if they had possessed it from the very beginning of their existence.

Among these treasures, Jared spotted an elderly man sitting on a square green stone platform measuring one meter on each side.
