These two jade plates are naturally one real and one fake.

Upon receiving the mission, Ji Tianhao already had a plan. He secretly crafted a fake jade plate, indistinguishable from the real one on the surface. After arriving at the destination and obtaining the genuine Kunlun jade plate, he would immediately store it in the Dark Space, which is now the Singularity Space of Time. The fake one would be kept outside, carried on his person, and brought directly back to China, thus creating a perfect imitation.

The strategy of feigning an attack on one side while secretly advancing on another was executed flawlessly.

However, now that they've already fallen into the sinkhole, these tasks are no longer important. What's important is the Kunlun Jade Disc itself. According to the information they've gathered, it's a great treasure, not an ordinary object. But no one really knows what it is.

Holding it in my hand now, I feel a surge of curiosity.

"Wait, something's not right. Why is this Kunlun Jade Plate glowing? There are words on it, are they runes or something?"

Just then, the Kunlun Jade Disc, which had left the singularity space and appeared in the outside world, seemed to have touched some mysterious substance from the outside world. The originally smooth and flawless, snow-white jade disc began to flash with a golden spiritual light without warning. Within the spiritual light, a kind of innate and indestructible spirituality was conveyed. Countless mysterious runes and Daoist characters appeared on the jade disc, which were sacred and majestic, giving people a feeling of glimpsing the sea of ​​laws.

"not good."

The instant the jade disc began to react, Ji Tianhao instinctively felt a strong urge to act. Without thinking, he decisively stored the Kunlun Jade Disc into the singularity space. That light was simply too eye-catching.

The changes that occurred in this singularity space of income once again exceeded its own expectations.

All that could be seen was that the black hole in the sea of ​​consciousness seemed to sense some kind of strong temptation, instinctively transmitting a powerful attraction, directly swallowing the innate spiritual light that emerged from the Kunlun Jade Plate. It looked like a starving ghost that had been hungry for countless years, suddenly seeing delicious food, and had completely and irresistibly absorbed it.

The primordial spiritual light within the Kunlun Jade Plate did not resist the absorption from the black hole; it was smoothly drawn in. Instantly, the entire primordial, indestructible spiritual light merged into the black hole. The moment it merged, the entire black hole seemed to gain sentience, instantly reviving from its dormancy. The previously seemingly still black hole began to emit a dark light and started to rotate, as if it had truly awakened.

Inside the black hole, countless mysterious runes can be seen flashing and changing.

At the same time, as the primordial spiritual light merged into the black hole, the Kunlun Jade Disc formed a mysterious connection with it. The jade disc directly integrated with the entire singularity space, becoming part of the spacetime singularity. Within the dark space, it naturally rotated, emitting a layer of soft white light. Hovering within this dark singularity space, it resembled the bright moon in the sky, adding a unique color to the darkness.

"The Kunlun Jade Disc, with its innate and indestructible spiritual light, activated the black hole and merged into the singularity space, becoming a part of that space. This is too miraculous! It turns out that the most wondrous thing about the Kunlun Jade Disc is that it contains an innate and indestructible spiritual light. It could have turned the Kunlun Jade Disc into an innate spiritual treasure, but instead it became part of the black hole within my body, becoming part of my talent."

Ji Tianhao felt a surge of excitement.

Without hesitation, I looked at the Guixu watch, hoping to glean some specific data changes from it.

Talent: Black Hole.

Supernatural Power: Spacetime Singularity [Iron Level], Devour [Iron Level]

"It's here, and indeed there have been changes. Devouring can send all things in heaven and earth into the black hole, allowing them to be devoured at will. The black hole can devour all matter, extract its essence, and strengthen itself, allowing the black hole to grow. Right now, it's just allowing the black hole to operate. The innate spiritual light has already opened the path for the growth of talent. However, the specific effects still need to be experienced personally to understand."

Ji Tianhao pondered to himself.

Although the innate abilities are displayed on the Guixu Watch, this only shows the data. The true experience, the quantity, and everything else need to be developed by oneself.

Of course, the Kunlun Jade Disc had completely merged with the black hole, becoming a part of it and even stimulating its operation. In his view, this was making the best use of its resources. Regardless of the circumstances, the black hole could grow, and the Kunlun Jade Disc had merged with the spacetime singularity. So, whatever the Kunlun Jade Disc's previous state or function, it was now simply a part of his own talent.

We'll find out what other effects the Kunlun Jade Plate has in the future.

Anyway, the meat was left to rot in the pot.

"The light that has just been emitted has probably already attracted some attention. Perhaps some people will think of the Kunlun Jade Plate. In that case, the plan we prepared earlier can still be carried out. Anyway, apart from me, no one knows that there is a fake Kunlun Jade Plate."

"However, it's time to gather supplies now. If we don't, once the people in the hotel realize what's happening, they'll definitely try to seize all the supplies. In this unknown environment and under these unknown circumstances, survival is the most important thing. My own survival is the most crucial thing."

A determined glint flashed in Ji Tianhao's eyes.

He never considered himself a selfless, altruistic, and perfect person. Saving others while ensuring his own safety was simply a matter of conscience and basic moral principles. But when he couldn't survive himself, the instinct for survival would be to seek any means to stay alive.

In the face of sudden disaster, the most important thing for survival is supplies.

Food, drinks, clothing, and other necessities.

Ji Tianhao wants them all.

After deciding on their next target, they immediately began ransacking their own room.

This time we booked a deluxe suite. The interior was luxuriously decorated, and even the basic amenities were complete. There was a blue-and-white porcelain teapot and teacups, a complete tea set, and that was all.

Take the six bottles of Nongfu Spring water that were placed at the entrance!

The suite was equipped with snacks and a large bag of preserved plums.

Soon, he had taken everything that could be put away from the room, including the Simmons mattress, blankets, towels, and so on. In the singularity space, which is only 1,000 cubic meters in size, putting away such a small amount of stuff was child's play. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to bring back some precision instruments from abroad back then.

These are being kept away just in case.

Years of experience as a bounty hunter had instilled in him a habit of being prepared for any eventuality.

When faced with adversity, supplies are everything.

After packing up everything that could be put away in the suite, including his own luggage, he walked outside without hesitation.

Click! !
Open the door, close the door—all in one smooth motion.

The room I was staying in was on the eighteenth floor. The elevator was unusable; it was a useless piece of junk, just a metal shell without power. I was even afraid of falling if I went in. So, of course, I took the stairs.

"The previous spatial rupture was probably an anomaly that occurred when we fell into the sinkhole. After we actually landed on the ground, we were completely unharmed. However, if we had stepped on it back then, our bodies would probably have been torn to pieces."

Ji Tianhao walked into the stairwell and saw that both the stairs going up and down were intact.

"The supplies depot is most likely located on the first floor or in the basement."

After a thought flashed through his mind, he didn't hesitate any longer and quickly ran downstairs. He used a technique to go downstairs: he tucked his feet in, put his toes together, and landed on his toes, like an agile cheetah. He went down the stairs three steps at a time, without any effort, and instead appeared unusually relaxed.

All those years of practicing traditional Chinese martial arts have not been in vain.

For an average person, it takes about two seconds to go up or down a flight of stairs, but for Ji Tianhao, it takes only one second to go down a flight of stairs. He went from the eighteenth floor to the first floor in just eighteen seconds.

Upon descending, the hotel lobby on the first floor was in complete chaos. Hotel staff, waiters, the lobby manager, and others were all in disarray. Hotel security guards were already on guard at the hotel entrance with batons. The main doors were closed, and a thick fog obscured all visibility. The terror of the hotel's collapse had not yet dissipated.

At the same time, they also noticed the watch marks that had suddenly appeared on their wrists.

Some clever ones have already begun to explore.

"Perfect, it makes it easier for me to collect supplies and avoids being disturbed."

Ji Tianhao glanced at the lobby. From the moment he fell into the sinkhole from the hotel until now, the time that had passed was actually quite short, even remarkably brief. With the Guixu Watch drawing his attention, he had no mind to focus on anything else. This was his best opportunity.

Without thinking, he quickly headed towards the kitchen.

The hotel has its own restaurant, and as a star-rated hotel, its kitchen is also very luxurious.

All kinds of high-end kitchen utensils were available. The kitchen appeared somewhat messy, clearly indicating the disturbance caused by the fall.

There were also quite a few ingredients scattered inside.

There was chicken, duck, fish, and meat. Seeing these ingredients, I didn't even think twice before taking them. I also quickly took a batch of pots, pans, knives, and the like. I didn't take everything; space was limited, and I couldn't waste it on things that weren't edible.

The kitchen and the warehouse for storing supplies are not far apart.

The warehouse itself is designed for the convenience of the kitchen staff, so it's not difficult to find.

The warehouse was quickly located. It seemed that someone had taken supplies before, as the warehouse was not locked but rather open. After all, no one would have expected such a thing to happen inside a hotel.

The warehouse was quite large, and the first thing you saw inside was a mountain of hotel supplies, such as blankets and towels. They collected a batch of unopened blankets, towels, and other hotel supplies—all high-end items, the kind used in star-rated hotels, so the standards were quite strict. However, they didn't take too many.

The most important things in the warehouse were the grains and the stored meat.

In one area, bags of rice and flour were clearly seen piled up like small mountains.
