"That young man with black hair and green eyes was also from the Justice League."

"Yes"

"He sent you?"

Diana nodded again.

The old man fell silent, then sighed, "This person is dangerous, as terrifying as death itself."

Diana said with a smile, "He's the kind of person who does crazy things, but still manages to stay focused on his goals."

"Do you believe him?"

"Yes, I trust him completely. He is the love of my life."

The old man was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke.

I can give you the Stone of Eternity, but on three conditions.

What are your conditions?

"First, prove your strength by defeating all the monsters in the arena."

"Second, go to the fourth level, prove your wisdom, and find a way out of the void world shrouded in black mist."

"The third one..."

The old man abruptly stopped: "Let's talk after you finish the first two!"

Diana hesitated for a moment; her concern wasn't for her own abilities, but for the old man's health, and...

How are you doing now?

"I have God's gift; as long as I don't want to die, I can hold on for several months."

"Okay, I promise, but I need to go find my other friends first."

The old man raised his hand, a light flashed in his palm, and a book appeared.

"This book contains the entrance and exit to the Stone of Eternity. Give it to your friend; he should be able to understand it."

Diana nodded, picked up the ancient book, and left the hall.

He originally intended to hand the Stone of Eternity over to Billy, but in reality, he had to compromise: whoever was in front of him, whether it was that terrifying green-eyed young man or the Amazon princess, they all possessed terrifying power, not to mention Billy, who, even in his prime, could not compare to them.

Perhaps it's time to give up on the "Eternal Stone".

Chapter 1531 The Land of Nothingness

After several months of ample space, the Justice League headquarters has acquired a certain grandeur.

The headquarters has a circular layout, with the conference room and data center located in the center, while the living area, laboratories, armory, training area, database, development department, etc. are arranged clockwise from left to right.

The living room is the largest room, taking up almost a quarter of the entire space, and provides each person with a separate bedroom.

Barry was the first to move here, followed closely by Ron; the others are fine for now.

Today is the fourth plenary meeting since the founding of the Justice League. Xu Fu gave a detailed account of the history of the Age of Gods and the Eternal Council, leaving everyone puzzled after listening.

“Does God really exist?”

Xu Fu corrected, "They are not gods; they are just special life forms with immense power, which are called gods for some reason."

Rong En sighed: "I never imagined that the ancient Earth held so many secrets."

Linda wondered, "Are those gods still alive?"

"Everyone is dead."

"How did he die?"

Xu Fu shrugged: "I've been thinking about it."

Clark hesitated for a moment. "I feel like something's not right."

"Are you afraid this is a trap?"

Clark nodded, his expression turning serious: "This wizard named Shazam has been in the Stone of Eternity for thousands of years. He clearly had the opportunity to go out, choose a suitable successor, or even create a new Council of Eternity, but he didn't. He lived there alone, without choosing a successor, until the end of his life. Don't you think there's anything wrong with that?"

Xu Fu was completely baffled: he was so focused on getting the Eternal Stone that he had forgotten something so important.

Diana, who was also frowning, couldn't help but say something.

"The Stone of Eternity should not conceal anything!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's expression changed instantly. Xu Fu also felt a toothache. After thinking hard, he realized that this was the only explanation. No wonder the old man agreed so readily and dared to shirk his responsibility.

Barry whispered, "We've changed our minds."

The atmosphere was somewhat relaxed.

The group considered the feasibility of this adventure. Undoubtedly, the Eternal Stone was a base that was extremely rare to find in the world. It was vast, well-equipped, and remarkably well-hidden; once they captured it, the Justice League would never be disturbed again.

After a moment of silence, Xu Fu spoke slowly.

"No matter the outcome, we must try, even if the monster truly exists, we must find out what it is."

Clark muttered, "I agree with Xu Fu."

The others looked at each other and nodded.

...

A moment later, at the main venue of the Eternal Conference.

Just then, six fully armed men appeared, and Xu Fu stepped forward.

"We meet again, Mr. Wizard."

The old man looked up and carefully examined the six people standing before him. When he saw Clark and Barry, his eyes lit up; both men possessed pure hearts and minds and could carry on his work.

Unfortunately it was too late.

As the old man gazed at the crowd, several others stared at him—a weathered old man, holding a staff, wearing a tight-fitting suit adorned with yellow lightning bolts, his heartbeat so faint it was almost imperceptible.

Barry whispered, "He's dying."

Diana raised her index finger, making a silent gesture.

Xu Fu said in a deep voice, "We agree to the two conditions you mentioned. When will we begin?"

"Always ready to assist"

"So, we're ready."

“The combat beasts are on the third floor. You know their location. After defeating all the monsters, you'll get a clue. As for the fourth floor…” He paused, glancing at Xu Fu.

"Are you sure you want to come in?"

Xu Fu smiled and said, "You can give me some hints."

The old man shook his head: "This is a constantly changing void. No matter which way you go, you will return to the starting point. If you want to get out of here, you can only rely on your own abilities."

“In my time, countless saints and gods entered the fourth level, but only five came out. Young man, are you sure you want to go there?”

"Since I promised you, I won't go back on my word, and you wouldn't dare lock me up for the rest of my life."

The old man smiled helplessly: he really didn't dare to trap the enemy, and then used magic to summon a dark vortex.

"This is the entrance to the fourth floor. If you fail, I'll give you two days..."

Xu Fu said in a deep voice, "If you fail, leave and never come back." Then he looked at Diana's three subordinates: "The arena is in your hands now. Remember, stay vigilant."

"We understand, but you need to be careful."

Xu Fu nodded and walked into the portal with Barry and Linda. After a brief moment of heavenly weightlessness, the three arrived at an area shrouded in gray fog.

With a field of vision of only thirty or forty meters, even Linda, who possesses superpowers, cannot see very far.

Xu Fu waved to Linda, who covered her mouth with her hand and shouted in one direction. The sound rolled forward, and after a long time, the echo could no longer be heard.

Of course, this is a void!

Xu Fu squatted down and reached out to touch the ground. The ground was at about a 30-degree angle, unlike stone, but it was very hard.

The five fingers that were clenched into a fist suddenly popped out.

Bang

A dent appeared in the ground.

Xu Fu watched as the dent gradually began to heal over time, and after about thirty seconds, it returned to its original state.

"...What kind of magic is this?"

Xu Fu shook his head: "It doesn't necessarily have to be magic."

"Ava, is the connection working properly?"

"Signal cannot be transmitted"

"It seems that only the most primitive method can achieve this."

Xu Fu took out a pre-prepared silk thread, connecting one end to Linda and the other to Barry. The three of them walked in three different directions, and the silk thread continued to stretch, making the distance between them grow farther and farther.

Fifty meters, one hundred meters, five hundred meters, two thousand meters...
