"The Phoenix is right. Go, enter the Heavenly Emperor's burial pit and draw the Heavenly Emperor Sword," the voice of the system resounded at this moment, carrying a trace of disdain.
As soon as Xu Yan heard the system's voice, he became agitated and questioned, "System, where were you earlier? I called you, why didn't you respond?"
He had called the system several times without getting a response, leading him to think that even the system might have encountered an unforeseen situation. For a moment, he felt worried and regretful.
"I've been here all along. It's the influence of the gray mist that affected you, paralyzing your mind with fear," the system explained. "Of course, I could have made you sober up, but I chose not to. It's a form of tempering."
When it saw Xu Yan in a panic, it was secretly delighted. It hadn't responded intentionally, trying to scare him. Of course, this couldn't be revealed; otherwise, Xu Yan would be forced to fight against it.
"Damn it!"
