The human expert imdiately panicked as he asked, "Master, what's wrong? Please tell your disciple and I'll imdiately fix it."
The word "disciple" was sothing that Lin Fan imdiately focused on.
That explained quite a bit.
It explained how the Shadow Lord had beco so powerful, while also explaining why they were so insistent in coming to this realm. It seed like they weren't just enticed by the artifact on this realm like it had told its subordinates. It seed like it had been working with the Beast King that had fallen in this realm the entire ti.
The dark figure kept looking around like there was a problem, but he couldn't find the solution. After a while, he finally said in the sa deep voice, "There's a fragnt of my soul here, but I can't tell exactly where it is. However, I can tell that it is close."
The human expert and the King Beasts all looked around in a confused manner, not seeing anything that was similar to the crystal.
The human expert tentatively asked, "Master, are you certain?"
The dark figure kept looking around without caring for them as he said, "Do you think I would make a mistake?"
The human expert trembled at this before turning to the King Beasts and shouting, "Spread out and search, it's a precious fragnt of master's soul!"
Lin Fan felt that sothing was off, why would the Beast King's soul fragnt suddenly ntion that there was a soul fragnt nearby?
Could it be that there really was one that had remained here after the Beast King had fallen, or could it be…?
Lin Fan paused for a second before he took out the soul fragnt that he had been keeping in his Spatial Ring.
The mont the crystal containing the soul fragnt appeared, the dark figure suddenly looking in the general direction of Lin Fan's group.
He stared right into space, right at where Lin Fan's group was standing while being covered in Momonga's darkness laws, hiding them, almost as if he could see them.
That confird what Lin Fan was thinking.
Even though he had stored this soul fragnt in his Spatial Ring which was considered a different space from the outside world it was currently in, which was similar to a smaller realm, the dark figure had been able to sense it. The mont it ca out, the sensation beca even stronger.
Without any further thought, Lin Fan imdiately put the soul fragnt into the system's storage.
The mont the soul fragnt entered the system's storage, the dark figure's crease above where the dark figure's eyes would be beca even deeper.
The dark figure ignored everyone around it as it moved towards where Lin Fan had been standing.
Had been as in they had casually moved out of the way once they saw the dark figure moving towards them.
Even if the dark figure had been at its peak as a Beast King, it still wouldn't have been able to break through Momonga's laws since Momonga was at a level that was higher than it to begin with.
That allowed them to easily avoid being detected by anyone present.
The human expert noticed that sothing was off with the dark figure, so he ca over to ask, "Master, what is it?"
The dark figure didn't look at the human expert as it continued staring in the direction Lin Fan's group had been while saying, "The sensation of the soul fragnt suddenly disappeared. It's as if sothing suddenly covered it."
The human expert was surprised at first, but then he asked, "Perhaps you only made a mistake?"
When Momonga had heard this conversation between them, he couldn't help being a bit surprised as well.
As far as he knew, the soul was a very mysterious thing and as one's cultivation beca stronger, so did one's soul. This was what allowed many higher realm experts to survive even when their bodies were destroyed.
But as these souls beca stronger, it ant that they were tightly knit together even when split into fragnts. There would be a powerful bond between each soul fragnt which drew them to each other. This was what had allowed the dark figure to sense its soul fragnt even when it was inside Lin Fan's Spatial Ring.
A Spatial Ring was only a minor application of spatial laws and even if it was a separate space, the bond between a soul was stronger than this.
Not to ntion that with the level that the Beast King's cultivation was at, it would have been even hard for a Ruler to hide a soul fragnt of this level at such close range.
Yet sohow Lin Fan had done it.
It seed like the master of the shop had indeed given Lin Fan quite a few special things and that ant that Lin Fan's position in the master's mind wasn't normal.
The dark figure said, "Do you really think…" But before it could even finish, it suddenly looked back in the direction of the corridor that led to this room.
The dark figure just stood there for a few seconds in silence before suddenly waving its hand at all the other King Beasts and said, "We're leaving, the human reinforcents are coming."
The beasts all looked at each other before quickly gathering up where the dark figure was.
Without any hesitation, they followed him over to the fountain and then they dove right into it, disappearing into the bottom of the fountain.
It seed like the fountain was hollow and there was a passage underneath it that led to the next room.
However, Lin Fan's group didn't continue forward.
They had heard what the dark figure had said and they were curious about who was coming.
After all, if they were human reinforcents, that would an that they would be on the sa side since they were after all humans. If they were human reinforcents, they should be the forces that ca from the upper realm to help the Blue Star Planet.
It didn't require them to wait long before they heard the sounds of footsteps coming from this corridor.
It wasn't just a single set of footsteps, it was a large group of footsteps.
When they ca out, there were the Legendary Realm Experts from the Union Governnt, as well as several other people that Lin Fan didn't recognize. It was clear that these people were the experts from the upper realm.
When they ca out of the corridor and saw Lin Fan standing there, they couldn't help being surprised.
There were a few of them that revealed concerned looks, naturally those were the people who were close to Lin Fan.
The Union Governnt president was leading this group, but it was clear that he wasn't the one leading them.
The Union Governnt president ca over and asked, "Are you here alone?"
Lin Fan nodded before saying, "I went to Snow Wind City first before coming over here."
The Union Governnt president wanted to say sothing else, but before he could, one of the upper realm experts ca forward and said, "What are you wasting ti with him for? If we stall for any longer, the beasts will already reach the artifact."
The Union Governnt president then asked, "What do you want to do with him then?"
The upper realm expert looked at Lin Fan and seeing through his cultivation, he gave a cold snort, "I'll finish him off, it's nothing more than a kid in the Platinum Realm."
That upper realm expert raised his hand and moved towards Lin Fan, but before he could make a move, there was a childish voice that rang out, "Stop, this isn't the ti for that. He was able to make it here which ans that his luck is good, but as for whether he is a traitor or not, we can take care of that later."
The upper realm expert imdiately stopped and turned to bow down to a little girl who had been standing in the middle of the group as he said, "But Princess, we can't just leave him here. It would be dangerous for us."
The little girl had a thoughtful look before saying, "I'll take care of it with my illusion laws. Once we finish taking care of the beasts, we'll co back and take him with us. I can feel sothing special from him and it would be a waste to just finish him off here."
The upper realm expert imdiately knitted his brows as he said, "Princess, are you really planning on…"
He didn't finish his words, but the aning was clear to everyone.
The little girl gave a shrug and said, "There's no harm in trying."
The upper realm expert clearly looked like he had sothing else to say, but he swallowed his words in the end.
Lin Fan knitted his brows when he heard this. They were talking like this in front of him, it was like he didn't even exist to them.
Lin Fan said, "What do you an…"
But before he could finish, the little girl had already appeared in front of him with her hands placed in front of his face.
She said in a soft voice, "Sleep. When you wake up it'll all be over."
Lin Fan imdiately felt a strong exhaustion co over him as his eyelids began to droop. He tried his best to keep them up, but he couldn't do it in the end.
His eyelids kept drooping until they ca over his eyes and he fell onto his back, falling into a deep sleep.
