The cave was extremely normal. It wasn't like what Lin Fan had imagined, a treasure trove.
The cave was eerie and creepy.
By the time Lin Fan arrived at the end, he caught sight of a pitch black mist crashing against the walls. Lin Fan's lips curled into a grin.
"HAHA! So, you're the one acting all mysterious. How is it? Do you feel like your life is about to end here?" Lin Fan laughed maniacally.
As the saying went, life was fraught with danger.
Back in the Infinite Slaughter Ancient Realm, Lin Fan did not really trust any of these so-called powerful beings after what had happened with the Seven Saint's treasure trove.
Powerful beings were humans as well. They would fear death as well. Especially the stronger one was, the more fearful they would be of death. How could they hand over a lifetime of opportunities to others?
And now that he had the system, there was no way he could hide anything. Trying to deceive the Young Master was just a fool's dream.
To think that he could brag about a Demon Seed Conversion Talisman as a Heaven Saint Imperial Treasure Talisman. What a bullsh * t!
In those novels that he had read in the past, there were all sorts of miraculous encounters that the main characters had. In fact, Lin Fan had even been envious of them. But now that he thought about it carefully, those main characters were probably no longer the same as before. They had all been replaced by powerful beings.
Otherwise, why else would they have such a great opportunity?
"You …!" That pitch black strain of consciousness shrieked out and lunged at Lin Fan.
He wanted to rip this guy apart. Rip him apart!
"Hmph! To think that a single strain of consciousness would dare to act so brazenly! I wonder who gave you the guts to do so!" Lin Fan hollered out as he took out his Demon City.
"Devour him!"
The big ancient demon within the Demon City howled out repeatedly. Tearing through the void with his claws, he grabbed Patriarch Azure Saint as though he was grabbing an ant.
"Impossible! The big ancient demon has already fallen! How could he be turned into a weapon spirit? Impossible …!" The moment Patriarch Azure Saint caught sight of the big ancient demon, he screamed out in disbelief.
Opening his mouth wide, a wild gust of wind blew out and swallowed the strain of consciousness into his tummy.
"Refine!"
That formidable consciousness of the Patriarch Azure Saint struggled within the body of the big ancient demon. However, it was smelted in the blink of an eye.
"Impossible …!" At the final moment of the refinement, Patriarch Azure Saint howled out in a frenzy. But after that, there was no more sound.
"Hmph! Trash!" Lin Fan said in disdain. At the same time, the power of Yao City kept rising.
If this were to continue, even if it did not gather all five spirits, it would still be able to become a Dao Artifact.
As long as one accumulated enough power, one could also break the rules.
In Lin Fan's opinion, who was the one who had set the rule that all sorts of conditions were required for a Supreme Spirit Weapon to be upgraded to a Dao Weapon? As long as one's power was strong enough, they would be able to break that rule even without all those conditions.
However, the fact that Patriarch Azure Saint could recognize the big ancient demon had Lin Fan a little bewildered. Evidently, this Patriarch Azure Saint had existed for a really long time. In fact, even before the big ancient demon had fallen, he had already existed. At the same time, he must have had some interactions with the big ancient demon.
'Even though Patriarch Azure Saint did not give Young Master any experience points, he did manage to strengthen Yao City. That's a pretty decent opportunity.' Even though Lin Fan was a little disappointed, he was satisfied in his heart.
At the same time, he could feel that his path had been way too treacherous. He had been set up by others at every turn. He had to be even more careful in the future.
If he had been greedy for small gains, he would have long died somewhere else.
"Eh? Two corpses." Lin Fan checked out his surroundings. Within this empty cave, there were two corpses.
One of the corpses was deeply embedded into the walls. It was about to fuse with the walls entirely. However, that corpse was still sparkling and translucent. Lin Fan touched it gently. Instantly, that corpse broke apart and turned into ashes.
"That's the corpse of a human." With just a touch, Lin Fan knew that the corpses of humans weren't inherently strong. The only way they could survive for eternity was if they were to cultivate to a certain state.
The physical body state of this corpse was actually pretty high. However, it might have used up all of its energy at the moment of death. In fact, it might have even activated all of its potential, causing it to turn into an ordinary body at the moment of its death. There was no way it could withstand the cleansing of time.
"Just who in the world is this?" Lin Fan was bewildered. He then cast his gaze over to the ground.
There was another corpse here, and it was most likely that it belonged to that so-called Patriarch Azure Saint from earlier on.
This corpse was relatively huge. It should belong to the ancient race.
The ancient race had an innate advantage over others. Even after death, their corpses were still pitch black and glowed with a luster.
"Eh? What's this?" Suddenly, Lin Fan realized that there was a shard embedded in the ancient race's corpse.
This shard looked extremely normal. It was dull and lusterless. There was nothing special about it.
However, Lin Fan could feel that there was something different about this shard.
Shing …!
Just then, the Eternal Axe in Lin Fan's storage started vibrating.
"What's going on?" Lin Fan could not understand what was going on. However, he took out the Eternal Axe. The moment he took it out, the Eternal Axe floated gently in the air. Suddenly, a surge of energy burst forth, enveloping the shard within it.
"Could this be a shard of the Eternal Axe?" Lin Fan's face changed. The Eternal Axe was a legendary weapon to begin with. However, because it was damaged, its powers were reduced significantly.
The situation right now was extremely strange. This shard seemed to have an inextricable connection with the Eternal Axe.
Within the Eternal Axe was an extremely powerful skill, Heaven Splitting Three Stances.
Right now, Lin Fan had only learned a single skill, Firmament. And just this single skill alone was enough for Lin Fan to benefit immensely. It was like a godly skill.
If this was truly a shard of the Eternal Axe, then there would definitely be a second stance after he fused it together. If he could learn this second stance, his powers would definitely skyrocket.
Suddenly, a bright beam of light burst forth from the shard, forming an image in the void.
The Eternal Axe had shattered. The shard tore through the void and scattered across the world.
A human had obtained this shard. After many years of hard work, he had finally forged it into a longsword. When this longsword was formed, the winds and clouds rumbled and natural disasters descended, turning it into a dao weapon.
Eventually, this human fought with the ancient race. Eventually, he managed to kill this ancient race being. However, his life was spent as well, and he died here.
This scene appeared before Lin Fan's eyes.
'Huff …' Suddenly, Lin Fan sighed. So, this was the outcome.
This human wasn't as strong as the Heavenly Emperor Yuan and the others. However, for the sake of overthrowing the ancient race, he did not fear death. This was something that was worthy of Lin Fan's respect.
Shing …!
The shard circled around the Eternal Axe, not fusing together for a long time.
Looking at this, Lin Fan understood in his heart. After such a long time, the Eternal Axe must have replenished itself. Hence, there was no place for this shard to exist anymore.
'Heaven and Earth Smelt, smelt!'
Without hesitation, Lin Fan summoned the Heaven and Earth Smelt and tossed the Eternal Axe and the shard within.
With the existence of the Heaven and Earth Smelt, all of these problems would no longer be a problem.
