The system was set three years in advance, but the universal deities still hadn't arrived.

"Holy crap, the treasure inside this little box is actually the corpse of an ancient high-ranking deity after its death!"

Zeng Shen stared at the panel rising from the small box in the poison pool, his face filled with disbelief and surprise.

After all, on a lower-level planet, a high-ranking deity represents the highest level of combat power. Even an immortal corpse can exert immeasurable value.

Moreover, it's not just the corpse itself, but the box containing it; unless a non-venomous creature gets close, it will transform into two venomous beasts that attack each other.

Upon thinking of this, Zeng Shen paused slightly.

"I'm not a highly poisonous creature, so why am I not being attacked?" A hint of doubt flashed in Zeng Shen's eyes.

"Could it be that my unknown pantheon belongs to the poison category?"

"No, if it belongs to the poison type, then it shouldn't be considered rare, but rather precious, right?"

Zeng Shen muttered a question in his mind, but didn't think about it too much. He decided to retrieve the crystal poison box first.

After all, he wanted to know why this crystal-walled poison box wasn't attacking him, and what kind of pantheon he belonged to.

Now that he has fully appreciated the usefulness of the hint card, he plans to wait until he has taken the island's final treasure and made it completely his own before using the hint card to learn more.

soon.

Zeng Shen flew to the edge of the poisonous pool and quickly deactivated his flying butterfly state. As soon as he deactivated the skill, his clothes instantly evaporated into black smoke, leaving him completely naked.

"This poison is truly terrifying."

Zeng Shen looked at his body, felt embarrassed, and focused his consciousness slightly. He used his telekinesis to try to fly the crystal poison box to the edge of the pool.

however.

When the telekinetic energy touched the surface of the pool, Zeng Shen felt that the telekinetic energy released by the power of faith dissolved and dissipated, unable to reach the water.

"Forehead."

Zeng Shen exclaimed in surprise, "This poisonous water actually blocks the power of faith. We can only try to see if we can use our spiritual power."

talking.

He focused his consciousness, used his telekinesis again, and surged into the pool.

As a result, the psychic magic he used to cast dissipated and disappeared as soon as it touched the poisonous water, unable to penetrate it.

"What's going on? Even mental power isn't working? Do I have to go into the water and retrieve it myself?"

Zeng Shen thought to himself, looking at the crystal-clear pool filled with enchanting crystals, hesitated for a moment, then put his legs together and leaped into the center of the pool.

"Pfft..."

The water splashed up and turned into colorful droplets, then fell back into the pool.

After Zeng Shen jumped to the center of the pool, he quickly sank down and bent over. Looking at the box surrounded by countless emerald green patterns in the center of the pool, he reached out and gently hugged it.

next second.

The patterns on the box seemed to be activated, transforming into countless runes that shimmered with emerald light, surrounding Zeng Shen and gleaming with a brilliant light.

At that moment, two deafening roars, like thunderclaps, rang out from the box.

Followed by.

Two terrifying beasts, bright red in color, long in stature, and with five enormous cobra heads, leaped from the box into the air. Above the pool, they transformed into multi-headed snakes hundreds of meters long, roaring loudly to the sky.

"Are these the two venomous beasts that the box transformed into?" Zeng Shen thought to himself, and then threw his peering eyes at the two multi-headed venomous snakes.

[Shiva's Poisonous Beast Soul: Tier 3 Poisonous Beast Soul]

The terrifying venomous beast Shiva, which lived on the edge of the boundary barrier and dominated the area, had its soul refined into a crystal poison box after its death.

Even though its strength had dropped to only the third tier, the level five poison carried by its own skills still made any living being tremble with fear. As Zeng Shen examined the information of the two poisonous beast souls, after roaring, the two souls quickly became ethereal, transforming into a stream of energy that flowed back into the box.

And at this time.

A notification sound rang in Zeng Shen's ears.

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully found the hidden treasure on the island and subdued all the intelligent races on it. This island will now be completely integrated into your divine realm.]

[Congratulations, host! You have obtained a red-quality special equipment item: Crystal Wall Poison Box.]

"Haha, it's finally done."

Zeng Shen, clutching the box, rushed out of the pool and back to the edge, immediately bursting into laughter.

Then, he quickly reached out and opened the crystal poison box containing the high-ranking deity.

Suddenly.

Zeng Shen opened his eyes wide, staring in astonishment at the scene inside the box.

This crystal-walled poison box actually contained a vast starry space inside, with countless starlight points resembling galaxies flowing around the center of the box.

In the center of the box lay a tall, naked girl with a firm chest, long, shapely legs, smooth, jade-like shoulders, delicate, snow-white features, and golden hair that occasionally transformed into small snakes at the ends.

"This beautiful woman looks so much like Medusa, the Gorgon from Egyptian mythology!"

Upon seeing the female corpse, even her long hair occasionally transforming into small snakes, Zeng Shen couldn't help but mutter to himself and cast a spying glance at her.

[The corpse of an ancient high-ranking deity who failed to attain supreme godhood and perished contains immense divine power. Host, please handle its development and use with caution.]

"What? That's all the information?"

Zeng Shen looked at the information fed back by the Eye of Peeping, muttered a little disappointedly, and put the corpse back into the Crystal Wall Poison Box. As he flew towards the outer edge of the Poison Forest, he pondered how to transform the female corpse into his own combat power.

First of all.

His idea was to put the female corpse of this high-ranking deity in the Heroic Spirit Tavern and revive her using survival points.

But he quickly rejected the idea.

Because the Heroic Spirit Tavern is only effective against intelligent races, and has no effect on these gods who have evolved from divine races.

"It seems I want to turn this female corpse into something alive. Perhaps I can try using the equivalent conversion chamber of that purple card."

Zeng Shen muttered to himself, then couldn't help but rub his temples, shake his head, and reject the idea once again.

After all, he didn't want to turn such a beautiful corpse of a high-ranking deity into an undead.

Moreover, he didn't want to make such a hasty decision.

therefore.

Zeng Shen frowned and pondered for a moment, deciding to wait and see how to deal with the corpse of this high-ranking deity and turn it into his own fighting force.

Soon.

Zeng Shen then flew out of the poisonous forest and appeared above the heads of the believers and summoned beasts.

The believers and summoned beasts who had been waiting for Zeng Shen outside the Poison Forest bowed respectfully when they saw him fly out naked, and then looked at him with great surprise.

Zeng Shen looked at his naked body and awkwardly explained to them, "The poisonous gas in the core area was too strong, and my clothes were poisoned."

"Pfft..."

The four women standing nearby, Nu Si, Yan Xi, Xue Ye, and Huang Ling, burst into laughter upon hearing Zeng Shen's words, "My clothes have been poisoned."
