Chapter 778: Another Fragnt
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation.
Yan Shenjun averted his gaze in satisfaction. Then, he grabbed the Hell’s Cage and activated it as per Patriarch Xue Pao’s instructions. A black cloud erged as a result.
Being inside the black cloud, Yan Shenjun couldn’t sense the aura outside.
This proved that Patriarch Xue Pao was telling the truth, that this magic treasure did have the sa effect as the miasma here—the ability to conceal aura.
Yan Shenjun soon mastered usage over this item. With this, he could enter the mainland as he pleased without having to worry about being detected by the immortal devouring beast.
A thought ca to Patriarch Xue Pao’s mind and he said, “Shenjun possesses phenonal power so I’m sure you will soon take the world by storm. But it is best to eliminate Lin Jin first because he might just have a Heaven’s Foundation Stone fragnt with him. Otherwise, he will be troubleso in the future.”
A Heaven’s Foundation Stone fragnt.
Yan Shenjun’s eyes lit up and he turned to Patriarch Xue Pao. “Have you seen it?”
Patriarch Xue Pao felt uneasy being scrutinized by Yan Shenjun. He hadn’t seen it before but he also wouldn’t dare lie about it. Though, he was a convincing man so he began elaborating his deduction, supplenting it with a mix of true and false details. He described it so vividly and added so factual accounts so that it sounded probable.
Yan Shenjun nodded, showing trust in what Patriarch Xue Pao had said. More importantly, he knew how powerful a Heaven’s Foundation Stone fragnt was.
He turned his palm over and a rock piece appeared in his hand. The rock piece wasn’t huge and seed to be a mix of tal on stone. There seed to be a soft glow around it as well.
Patriarch Xue Pao’s heart thumped at the sight of this rock, his gaze burning with passion.
He knew what this rock was.
A sacred stone.
In other words, a Heaven’s Foundation Stone fragnt.
Before the immortal emperor died, he had struck the Heaven’s Foundation Stone, breaking one corner of it so shattered pieces fell from the sky. Even a fragnt the size of a nail had the ability to help one peek into the rules of heaven. It was truly a supre treasure. Patriarch Xue Pao had been the first to learn of this secret and had been pursuing these fragnts over the years, exerting trendous effort.
But he never obtained one before.
He was really unlucky. What devastated him even more was that not only Lin Jin had a piece, but Yan Shenjun did too.
For a mont there, Patriarch Xue Pao felt the impulse to leap up and snatch away the fragnt in Yan Shenjun’s hand. But sanity told him that he was just courting death by doing so.
Yan Shenjun had strength surpassing unfettered immortal realm. He even had a heaven weaving spider that was on unfettered immortal level guarding him. If Patriarch Xue Pao made a move, he would be instantly killed.
Hence, after suppressing his jealousy and impulse, he quickly said, “Congratulations, Shenjun, this is the sacred stone piece.”
Yan Shenjun laughed. He had an inkling about this fragnt’s background before. Now that he had Patriarch Xue Pao’s confirmation, he was able to verify his guess.
The flesh around his palm moved like a mouth, swallowing the Heaven’s Foundation Stone fragnt back inside his body.
He actually managed to survive because of this fragnt.
Back then, all his subordinates died when the heaven weaving spider attacked. Even Yan Shenjun was in a dangerous predicant. With no way to retreat, he could only advance further down.
Perhaps it was his luck but that cave had another cave under it and Yan Shenjun found a large snake there.
The snake had seed to be sleeping.
At that mont, Yan Shenjun had no idea that the snake was the saint’s original form, the very saint that nded the skies. Yan Shenjun’s attention was drawn instead to the fragnt etched on the snake’s forehead.
That fragnt glowed so it must be sothing special.
As the snake slept, Yan Shenjun flew over and grabbed the fragnt. Alas, the snake suddenly woke up and swallowed the lower half of Yan Shenjun’s body.
Yan Shenjun had thought he would surely die, and yet, during that near-death mont, sothing was activated and the fragnt in his hand dove into his palm to enter his body. It also unleashed a wave of strength that shattered the snake’s head, also destroying his own lower body. Yan Shenjun fell unconscious after that.
By the ti he woke up, he had already rged with the snake. It must have been the magical power of the Heaven’s Foundation Stone fragnt.
After being lucky enough to survive, Yan Shenjun gained imnse strength. He now had half of the saint’s strength and could even control the heaven weaving spider.
However, due to extre blood loss, he had been weak and famished.
Coincidentally, the cult leader and Patriarch Xue Pao fell into his cave and Yan Shenjun just went ahead and devoured the cult leader to replenish his strength. If Patriarch Xue Pao hadn’t been quick enough to say sothing that persuaded Yan Shenjun, he would have been eaten up too.
Yan Shenjun knew he wasn’t a normal immortal anymore but a monster. A monster that was rged with the saint’s body. It was also thanks to the Heaven’s Foundation Stone fragnt that he managed to live.
That fragnt was the source of his power, and without it, he would die. Because this item changed the law and allowed him to rge with the saint’s body. If he lost the fragnt, this rged state would fall apart.
Yan Shenjun couldn’t let that happen.
Upon hearing that Lin Jin too had a Heaven’s Foundation Stone fragnt, Yan Shenjun finally cleared up the confusion he previously had concerning Lin Jin. Like a fog had been lifted, he understood it all now.
“It’s no wonder he’s so overpowering. So it’s because he has a fragnt too. Good. I just happen to have a score to settle with him. Once I kill him and take his fragnt, my strength will definitely increase. I can even kill the immortal devouring beast after that. Only then can I truly own the world, the universe!” Greed flashed in Yan Shenjun’s eyes.
He actually did experience side effects from rging with the snake. His blood was being forcibly combined with the saint’s, and although there was the Heaven’s Foundation Stone to maintain a balance, Yan Shenjun still suffered pain because of it. For this reason, his temper beca violent too.
After all, he would only ever kill in the past and not eat a person.
But because he rged with the saint’s body, he beca slightly barbaric.
“Patriarch Xue Pao, tell . How can I find Lin Jin quickly?” Yan Shenjun asked. The other side effect he suffered after the rger was that he ca to dislike thinking. He preferred acting directly now.
He was bloodthirsty so he couldn’t be bothered considering anything. He would leave it to Patriarch Xue Pao. After all, he only kept the guy alive to sche for him.
If Patriarch Xue Pao could co up with ideas, Yan Shenjun wouldn’t mind letting him live. But if he couldn’t, Yan Shenjun just happened to be hungry. He extended his unusually long snake-like tongue and revealed his sharp teeth while looking at Patriarch Xue Pao.
Maybe eating him wouldn’t be such a bad idea.
