Upon hearing Dominic’s words, Gu Xi temporarily set aside the allocation of the Eye of Vitality and followed Dominic towards the city center.

Dominic, as a relatively advanced leader, treated this matter with such urgency, it was certainly no trivial thing.

As for matters like the Eye of Vitality, they’ll just leave it to the Skeleton Shooters to sort out.

After all, these things were initially theirs, and even divided before. If the Skeleton Shooter hadn’t noticed something amiss, these items might have already been used up.

Now it’s just a matter of redistributing them.

Gu Xi didn’t want to meddle further.

He followed Dominic to a position closer to the deep pit.

Gu Xi had been to the Death City before. Although it had become a deep pit, the general geographic location didn’t change much, and Gu Xi could immediately identify that this was Dominic’s long-targeted location, the First District Assembly Hall.

It seemed Dominic harbored some obsession in his heart.

Perhaps he thought if he had conquered the Assembly Hall at the time, at least they would have had a chance to maintain the initially occupied area.

It might be this thought that drove Dominic to dig here deeply, eventually uncovering something.

With this in mind, Gu Xi specifically went to the position Dominic pointed out.

At this time, dozens of Undead were cleaning away the black ash here.

Revealing a black stone beneath the black ash.

From a distance, Gu Xi thought this piece of sun bone shattering ash solidified into a large stone block.

He was thinking of laughing at Dominic for being overly anxious.

But in the next instant, Gu Xi felt a surge of psychic impact.

If it weren’t for the immunity effect of Gu Xi’s Flame Light Six Paths Lamp focusing on psychic powers, he might have been affected.

At this moment, Gu Xi also understood, something buried beneath the assembly hall presumably had the effect of enhancing psychic powers.

This aligns with the situation of the octopus-head players.

Dominic being influenced by this black stone, with his fixation amplified, it was possible he considered it a significant item.

However, this black stone was of little use to Gu Xi.

At least Gu Xi never intended to pursue a psychic path; taking it back wouldn’t be useful.

Just handling it briefly would suffice.

If necessary, he could take it back for Eve to study, to see if it could be placed in Yalidov City to serve as a basis for psychic communication or something.

Thinking about this, Gu Xi reached out and knocked on the black stone.

In the next instant, the Fox Eye Ring, which normally didn’t react much, lit up.

This situation startled Gu Xi.

Considering the Fox Eye Ring being Gu Xi’s first piece of orange armor, it usually showed little reaction, almost like it never existed.

Unlike the Flame Light Six Paths Lamp, which occasionally had an Equipment Carrier showing off.

After the Fox Eye Ring activated, Gu Xi quickly withdrew his hand, pointing at an Undead behind him.

"Dig this thing out."

Following Gu Xi’s command, the Undead quickly took action, excavating the black stone from the ground.

Seeing Gu Xi being even more anxious about the stone than himself, Dominic was momentarily stunned.

But Gu Xi had no intention of explaining these things to Dominic.

After the black stone was dug out, he immediately instructed the Undead to smash the stone.

The stone was shattered into small pieces, and Gu Xi began selecting from these fragments.

Gu Xi picked up each fragment and held it up to the light for a closer look.

Gradually, Gu Xi picked out several distinct small stones.

After scrutinizing the smashed stone pieces, Gu Xi held four or five small stones, his eyes flickering with hesitation and regret.

From the process of selecting the stones earlier, Gu Xi had verified certain circumstances.

The stones before him were indeed formed from black ash solidified; however, this process wasn’t naturally occurring but was man-made.

It was like concrete cement blocks.

The majority material here was black ash.

But what truly attracted Gu Xi was not the black ash, but the small stone fragments he discovered within.

In these small stone pieces, Gu Xi could find some Life-taking Stone powder using the Fox Eye Ring.

This indicated the octopus-head players had located at least one Life-taking Stone.

Had this not been the case, the Chen’s Fox Eye Ring wouldn’t have reacted so significantly.

Gu Xi now wasn’t sure whether the person obtained an orange armor from the Life-taking Stones or perhaps acquired one piece of the Nine-Tailed Divine Power Set.

Also, Gu Xi hadn’t figured out whether orange armor had uniqueness.

He only knew, after such a long time, he finally found clues related to the Life-taking Stone.

If orange armor were not unique, Gu Xi wouldn’t need to rush.

Because missing one piece from the nine-piece orange armor set would impact the Nine-Tails Divine Power’s effect.

Unlike the White Bone Obelisk or the Flame Light Six Paths Lamp, where losing them wouldn’t affect the use of other equipment.

Missing one piece of the Nine-Tails Divine Power Set renders the crucial skill within unusable.

Moreover, Gu Xi believed, if octopus-head players truly obtained a piece from the Nine-Tails Divine Power Set, they would definitely try to collect other set pieces.

They inherently played with Mind Magic, knowing there was a divine artifact offering an entire set of psychic spells, they would undoubtedly seek to acquire it.

Even if they couldn’t use it themselves, they wouldn’t let others possess it.

After all, for octopus-head players, psychic powers were their fundamentals.

If their psychic abilities were suppressed, their entire race would face extinction.

Hence, Gu Xi immediately speculated that once octopus-head players discovered the Nine-Tails Divine Power Set,

they would definitely pursue it further.

Moreover, they might utilize the Life-taking Stone in various ways.

Mixing the Life-taking Stone powder into black ash and making concrete stone blocks for use might be one such approach.

After laying down the stone pieces containing Life-taking Stone powder, Gu Xi turned to Dominic and said.

"Your recent discovery is very useful to me, now I’m assigning you a task: check if there’s any similar stone beneath this Bone Shattering Ash.

If there is, gather all of these stones and bring them to me."

Upon hearing Gu Xi’s command, Dominic didn’t ask even a single question about why.

He immediately left with his subordinates.

After Dominic departed, Gu Xi’s gaze turned back to the black ash.

At this moment, Gu Xi realized he hadn’t come away empty-handed.

The items buried beneath the black ash of the Death City, for him, might be even more useful than Death City itself.
