Chapter 530: Chapter 192: Land of Extreme North, Glacier Throne (4559 words)
The previous chapter was a discarded draft, and it wasn’t deleted, frustratingly.
Some readers reminded me, and it has now been removed.
In the mist…
The melancholy melody of ethereal singing pervaded the air.
Chen Fan glanced at his bone frame and lamented.
In the Dark Abyss, many demons weaker than him could take on a human form.
Yet, he couldn’t seem to condense flesh for himself.
Old Demon Dragon said that if Chen Fan stole the Tongtian Divine Column from the Dutian Divine Domain and use it as his spine, he could condense a divine body.
Chen Fan scoffed at the idea.
The Tongtian Divine Column was the treasure of the Dutian Ye Clan.
Stealing the Tongtian Divine Column?
Even Old Demon Dragon might not be able to do it!
The columns had been supporting the Dutian Divine Domain since ancient times, and stealing it would likely lead to Chen Fan being chased down by the Ye Clan and destroyed by divine thunder, even if he hid in the depths of the Dark Abyss.
Speaking of which, it’s strange…
Chen Fan recalled a dream in which he had stolen a Tongtian Divine Column and was chased down by Ye Hongyan into the Dark Abyss.
He had even saved Ye Hongyan in the dream, only for the woman to betray him and stab a sword into his neck!
Chen Fan subconsciously touched his neck.
Huh?
In that dream, did he already have a divine body?
How bizarre…
Did he really want to steal the Tongtian Divine Column?
When did he have that dream?
He felt uncomfortable…
It was as if he had forgotten many things.
Without a divine body, this was how it would be.
Demons born in the Dark Abyss were filled with negative emotions like death and destruction, making them hard to control.
If it weren’t for the blood of Old Demon Dragon, would he still be fighting and scrapping with other demons for food?
Chen Fan touched his skull and turned his head.
Not far away, beneath a large tree, Ye Hongyan had fallen asleep on the grass.
Two ghostly flames flickered in Chen Fan’s eyes as he glanced at the bracelet on Ye Hongyan’s left wrist.
The bracelet was made of five differently colored gemstones.
Those five gemstones, of five colors, were another treasure of the Dutian Ye Clan: the Five-colored Divine Stone!
Chen Fan slowly stood up and quietly approached Ye Hongyan.
As for the Tongtian Divine Column, forget about it…
With Chen Fan’s current strength, it was impossible for him to even approach the area where the Tongtian Divine Column was located.
But the Five-colored Divine Stone…
Legend has it that the Five-colored Divine Stone possesses the power of creation.
It was because of the immense power of these five divine stones that Ye Hongyan had become the Empress of the Dutian Ye Clan at such a young age!
If he got his hands on the Five-colored Divine Stone, wouldn’t it be easy to condense a divine body?
Chen Fan quietly walked over to Ye Hongyan and squatted down beside her.
In the dim light, a faint blush appeared on Ye Hongyan’s face as her breathing became more rapid.
Chen Fan raised his ghostly claw…
Ye Hongyan’s body seemed to tense up a bit.
This woman was really strange, even putting in so much effort when sleeping.
“Hmph!”
Chen Fan’s ghostly claw shot towards the Five-colored Divine Stone on Ye Hongyan’s wrist like lightning.
The Five-colored Divine Stone radiated dazzling light…
“Boom!”
Chen Fan felt a mountainous force surging towards him, shattering his skeletal frame before he could react, scattering his bones and skull!
“Bang, bang, bang…”
Bones scattered on the ground.
Ye Hongyan sat up, pursing her lips and gritting her teeth, looking at the scattered bones.
Those bones quickly reassembled and connected, forming a skeleton again.
Ye Hongyan rolled her eyes and said, “You’ve lost your mind!”
“No need for your advice!” Chen Fan used both hands to lift his skull, turn it around, and reattach it to his neck.
Then, the ghostly flames flickered in his eye sockets and he said, “Something seems off…”
Ye Hongyan burst into laughter: “You’ve put your hands on the wrong side!”
Chen Fan:
After a moment of silence, Chen Fan took off his left and right hands and switched them.
Ye Hongyan said irritably, “I’ve told you before, the divine power of the Five-colored Divine Stone can counter your dark divine power. If your bones hadn’t been tempered by Old Demon Dragon’s blood, you would’ve been shattered just now!”
Chen Fan walked over and sat down next to Ye Hongyan, “I want to condense a divine body.”
“I don’t like always looking like a skeleton.”
Ye Hongyan glanced at Chen Fan and took a while before saying, “How many years have you crawled out of the Dark Abyss?”
Chen Fan counted on his fingers and said, “I can’t remember, was it 800 years or 8,000 years?”
Ye Hongyan asked, “Why do you want to condense a divine body and transform into a human so badly?”
“Isn’t it good to be a little skeleton?”
“Carefree and free as a bird.”
Chen Fan was stunned, “After condensing a divine body, can I not be carefree and free as a bird?”
Ye Hongyan sighed softly, “You don’t understand the cruelty of this world…”
“Maybe.” Chen Fan said, “I don’t know how many years I’ve lived. Since the moment I gained consciousness, I’ve been fighting countless demons just for a mouthful of food.”
