Whoosh!
Qin Yuan slashed his sword at his back with all his might.
He couldn’t dodge, the sword easily tore at his back.
“Uhhh…” He screamed as blood spurted out of his back.
Qin Yuan didn’t give him a chance to breathe, he slashed his sword at him once again, still at full power.
“Damn…” He cursed.
Right after that, he suddenly turned towards Qin Yuan.
He took off his robes, revealing his wounded chest.
At this moment, boundless power gathered in that chest, seemingly ready to explode.
The radiating pressure made many hearts pound as if death was coming.
A Great Emperor is still a Great Emperor. Even in a situation like this, a Great Emperor could still carry out a very dangerous counterattack.
Qin Yuan didn’t want to see him do that, attacking with a sword didn’t really convince him either, so he pointed his palm at his body.
Whoosh!
Immediately after that a black hole appeared in front of him. It wasn’t very big, just a little bigger than his body.
However, when it appeared and revolved, the Seven-Path Great Emperor was instantly sucked in at an unimaginable speed.
He didn’t even have time to widen his eyes before disappearing into the black hole.
The black hole also disappeared right after that.
“What’s that?” People were shocked while the Great Emperors knit their brows..
It appeared and disappeared very quickly. People don’t have time to do analysis.
However, how a Great Emperor was sucked into it let them know that it was something extremely dangerous.
Qin Yuan on the other hand, sent his consciousness into the Immortal Devouring Space.
At this moment, the power that had gathered in the chest of the Seven-Path Great Emperor was shattered as it was torn apart by the empty space in the space.
His body was also dismembered, one by one shattered into extremely small pieces.
Here, he didn’t even have time to scream before his body disintegrated completely.
‘I should have injured him dozens of times,’ Qin Yuan thought.
He felt like he didn’t hurt him because the destruction of his body was really too fast.
“Mm…” Qin Yuan’s eyes narrowed.
Apart from the snake that was always coiled around his feet that Qin Yuan had deliberately not killed because he thought he could get information from it, there was one thing that was not broken.
It had to be known that even his Divinities had been destroyed, but it could still endure.
Even though it was about to shatter as well, its uniqueness kept Qin Yuan from destroying it.
He grabbed it but didn’t look at it right away because he was getting notifications from the System.
Ding!
[You have injured the Seven-Path Great Emperor ten times, you have gained 50,000 Karma Points and 6,250 Charm Points.]
[Karma Points: 272,500]
[Charm Points: 55,155]
Ding!
[Your Charm Points have crossed the 50,000 mark! From now on, every mission that grants Charm Points, you will only get 1/16 Charm Points of Karma Points.]
Ding!
[You have killed the Seven-Path Great Emperor, you have gained 100,000 Karma Points and 6,250 Charm Points.]
[Karma Points: 372,500]
[Charm Points: 61,405]
[Your Charm Points have crossed the 60,000 mark! From now on, every mission that grants Charm Points, you will only get 1/32 Charm Points of Karma Points.]
Seeing his current amount of Karma Points, Qin Yuan smiled in satisfaction.
‘No problem with reading one more Fragment,’ he thought.
‘Erm, maybe now is a good time to ask the System.’
The question he always wanted to ask was; could the System help unite his Divinities and Saint Fruits. If so, how much should he pay?
All this time he had refrained from asking that because he thought his Karma Points were far from enough.
“System, how much does it cost to fuse my Divinity and Saint Fruits?” He finally asked.
[No price for that!]
“Eh???” Qin Yuan was astonished.
He put off asking because he thought it was too expensive, but System’s answer made him almost jump.
“What do you mean by no price?” he asked again.
[System doesn’t have an answer for that, but it really costs nothing because you basically don’t need the System’s help. According to my analysis, those Fragments, Your Saint Fruits and Divinities will fuse by themselves later.]
Qin Yuan was surprised again because it was a bit unexpected.
‘There’s something like that, then why can’t they be fused now?’ Qin Yuan wondered.
‘Or is it because my strength is still weak?’ He quickly got an answer because this kind of thing happened quite often among cultivators.
Some people are unable to cultivate a technique or integrate with something because their strength is still weak so they have to wait.
‘That makes sense,’ he thought.
The fragments wanted to fuse but stopped.
It wasn’t that they couldn’t fuse, they just stopped so as not to damage his body.
‘Well, maybe it’s because I consider the Fragments to be so superfluous that I don’t think about this simple thing.’
Qin Yuan smiled wryly as he thought that.
He couldn’t be blamed because the Heavenly Scripture was something far beyond his knowledge.
‘However, what does Hei Hou mean by saying that the Heavenly Scripture is still not finished?’
Qin Yuan was not sure about the last question.
But when he thought about it, he thought it would be a bit strange that the Heavenly Palace Master could accomplish something that the four people who created the Heavenly Scripture couldn’t complete.
It wasn’t that he underestimated the Heavenly Palace Master, but those four people should be inconceivable existences, peak upon peak.
Something that they couldn’t finish even though working together should be something that was the most and most difficult.
‘Basically, fusing the Fragments, and fusing Saint and Divinity Fruits are still part of the method that is ingrained in the Heavenly Scripture, those who possess it will automatically be able to do so.
‘What they can’t finish should be something on top of that.’
Phew!
Qin Yuan sighed.
He felt calmer after coming to that conclusion.
Immediately he turned his gaze to the snake following the Seven-Path Great Emperor.
The snake seemed to be in doubt, it looked at Qin Yuan with an expression as if he was thinking.
In fact, it was not weak, its cultivation was at the Divine Beast Eighth Stage.
“Are you the man’s pet?” Qin Yuan asked.
“Of course, no… My master is the Dark Bone King.” It actually answered right away.
“Dark Bone King?” Qin Yuan repeated its words and then asked, “Is he the boss of all this?”
“Yes, my master has unimaginable power, stronger than most Epoch Giants, he even has three Epoch Giants as his subordinates.” When it said that, the snake looked very excited, it seemed like it had even forgotten its fear.
It then continued, “Young man, you better give up now, submit to my master and you can continue to live comfortably in the future!”
Hearing the snake’s words, Qin Yuan almost laughed.
Shu!
He tapped the snake’s head with his index finger.
It was instantly thrown into the wall at the far end of the room.
However, it didn’t seem to care about the pain in its body.
With a swift movement, it stood up before bowing to Qin Yuan.
“Lord, n-no, Your Excellent, please forgive this little snake… I-I’m just a weak creature who can’t determine my own destiny,” it said, revealing its true personality.
“Heh,” Qin Yuan snorted softly. “Alright, I’ll give you a chance to live as long as you answer my every question. You will suffer every time you hesitate.”
“I-I will,— I-I will definitely answer all your questions, Your Majesty,” replied the snake in a stuttering voice.
Qin Yuan then looked at the thing left behind from the body of the Seven-Path Great Emperor.
From the smell, it was a drop of blood, but it was transparent in color, like water.
“This is the Ultimate Blood Essence of a member of the Shaman Clan,” the snake said.
Qin Yuan was hearing about the clan for the first time. He said, “so he’s from a clan.”
He then looked at the snake, waiting for him to explain.
“Your Majesty, this is an ancient clan, it has existed for a long time, like the Dragon and the Phoenix. They are scattered in many Realms, but they are much rarer. Their special ability is to perform divination.
“And it’s said that their Ultimate Blood Essence can perform extraordinary divination once… Unfortunately I don’t know the method to use it.”
“Hmm, then this is an extraordinary treasure!” Qin Yuan finally stored the blood into his Storage Ring.
Perhaps he could ask the System for help to obtain the method, but for now he still didn’t need it.
He also couldn’t talk to the snake right now because outside there were a lot of people waiting for him.
His consciousness returned to his body.
Although the elapsed time seemed long, in fact only about 10 minutes had passed since he had used the Immortal Devouring.
…
Why doesn’t the Heaven kill everyone outright, why does it only send out occasional attacks? Well, there is a clear answer to this question. It would be answered when Qin Yuan came into contact with it.
