Chapter 612 - 606: Legendary Fragment
The place where the World-devouring Beast resides actually hides a treasure?
Lin You was incredibly surprised as he looked at the half-buried golden fragment in the ground, not expecting there to be something else here.
Thinking back carefully, when they first encountered the World-devouring Beast, the creature never left the canyon, as if it were guarding something.
This allowed them to escape with their lives.
It seems that the World-devouring Beast was indeed guarding this fragment.
For a creature of this level to stay rooted here for three years, it is undoubtedly something extraordinary.
With excitement, Lin You quickly put away the Stone of Space and, in a flash, reached the center of the canyon.
As soon as he approached the golden fragment, he sensed a peculiar aura enveloping the surroundings, unfamiliar yet somewhat similar to his Time Law, making him quite amazed.
It’s important to know.
His Time Law is a power that transcends this world.
Yet such a high-level item exists in this low-tier space?
He extended his hand, and the golden fragment burst from the ground, flying into his hand. He finally saw its full appearance.
It was a corner of a Species Token!
However, this Species Token was different from any he had seen before, with a dark golden hue and faint shifting shadows of various forms, evidently extraordinary at a glance.
Lin You’s gaze sharpened, and an information interface appeared before him.
[Name: Species Token Fragment (Random)]
[Grade: Legendary]
[Level: Unknown]
[Introduction: A fragment containing Soul Power. Collect all fragments to randomly synthesize one Legendary-level Species Token. Insufficient level, unable to use.]
!!!
Legendary-level Species Token!
Lin You’s eyes widened in shock.
This was his first time seeing something of Legendary level, and even though it was just a fragment, it still astonished him immensely.
This means.
If he collects the remaining fragments, he can synthesize a Legendary-level Species Token?
If this is true, it would be incredible.
After all, his Mutated Ability can enhance the potential of a Species by one level. With a Legendary Species, he could mutate it to an even higher potential, increasing its strength!
Didn’t expect such an unexpected delight from revisiting an old place, completely beyond his expectations.
He wondered if there might be similar fragments in other places.
If he can synthesize a Legendary Token, it would indeed be hugely profitable.
After checking the surroundings thoroughly for any omissions, he instantaneously teleported away from the canyon to search at the junctions with other regions, killing any World-devouring Beasts he encountered along the way.
However.
Lin You was disappointed.
After slaying six World-devouring Beasts, he still hadn’t found a second fragment. Nonetheless, he had collected six Stones of Space.
"Isn’t it as easy as I thought?" Lin You couldn’t help but sigh.
It seemed this Legendary fragment ended up here by some chance traversing through space.
After all.
Items of this level don’t even belong to the Ten Thousand Realms, so how could they appear in abundance?
Finding even one was already incredibly lucky.
He could only gradually inquire about the whereabouts of other fragments in the future.
With that in mind, Lin You put away the fragment and studied the six white cubes in his hands.
It was after slaying the six World-devouring Beasts that he realized these Stones of Space had grade differences.
Slaying a Tier Ten World-devouring Beast yields a Tier Ten Stone, while slaying a Tier Eleven Beast yields a Tier Eleven Stone.
For instance, the most prominent and radiant Stone of Space he held now.
[Name: Stone of Space]
[Grade: Rare]
[Level: Tier Eleven]
[Introduction: Used to develop an Independent Space connected with a Kingdom to cultivate new Lords. Each Kingdom can only develop one space, usable only within a Subordinate Chaos Space.]
This Stone of Space was obtained by slaying an eleven-tier World-devouring Beast with an Attribute of 800,000. The others were all Tier Ten Stones.
He happened to have five Duchies beneath him, so he could open their Guiding Spaces together, making it more convenient to recruit new Lords.
Seeing the Legendary Species fragment had no lead, Lin You decided to abandon the search and teleported directly to a vast void distant from other regions, taking out the Tier Eleven Stone of Space.
[Using "Stone of Space (Tier Eleven)" will consume 1 billion Magic Energy. Would you like to proceed?]
"Use."
billion Magic Energy was nothing to him now, roughly equal to a day’s revenue for the Holy Protection Kingdom.
As soon as he voiced his decision, the Stone of Space in his hand burst forth with dazzling white light.
The white cube, originally the size of a fist, expanded rapidly under this white light, isolating the diluted Chaos Qi from the surroundings.
Then, amidst a tremendous roar, various terrains and climates erupted from the ground, the sun and moon appeared, and together they formed an expansive independent world.
Lin You carefully sensed the space.
Its size was exactly that of his Kingdom’s territory.
It could accommodate millions of newbie Lords without a problem, sufficient for them to propagate, compete for resources within.
Next.
He replicated the process, using the remaining five Tier Ten Stones of Space to create five smaller spaces adjacent to this large space.
Before long.
One large and five small newbie areas were successfully established, connected smoothly with the Holy Protection Kingdom and subordinate Duchies.
"Boom——"
Just then, a loud rumbling came from deep within the Chaos Void, stirring the surrounding aura into a frenzy.
Lin You opened his senses fully, vaguely detecting a collapsing space, as terrifying energy surged across the vast Chaos Void.
Immediately after.
Beams of light suddenly illuminated the newly established Guiding Space.
Upon closer inspection, it was actually a multitude of rookie lords being transported here, along with numerous rudimentary Tier One territories.
"This is..."
Lin You opened his mouth, eyes full of amazement.
Could it be.
The loud bang he just heard.
Was actually the destruction of a Cosmic Space connected to the Ten Thousand Realms Continent, bringing all the intelligent life forms within it here?
"Damn, I’ve transmigrated!"
"Can anyone tell me where this is?"
"Please let me go back, I want to return home, Chunlan, where are you?"
"Haha, I was allocated the Demon Type’s Flaming Puppies species, Otherworld, here I come!"
"In this lifetime, I, Long Aotian, must reclaim everything I lost!"
With the arrival of more and more new lords, the entire Guiding Space became increasingly noisy,
filled with cries and shouts, making Lin You in the void unable to contain his curiosity.
It turns out.
This is how they came to this world?
"Interesting."
Lin You smiled, watching everything happening within the space.
Instinctively, he sighed.
A new cycle was about to begin again.
...
...
"Creak."
Inside the Changfeng Imperial Palace, in one of the highest halls.
The palace door slowly pushed open, with a cold-faced Situ Jian walking in from outside.
"You wanted to see me?"
The Changfeng Emperor, dressed in white, stood on the balcony, overlooking the scenery of the Imperial Capital, not turning around.
"Was it you who rescued my friend yesterday?"
Situ Jian spoke directly, his eyes fixed on the Changfeng Emperor’s back.
As soon as the words fell, the hall returned to silence, with the Changfeng Emperor still gazing into the distance.
After a long while, he spoke softly: "Yes, it was me. If you’re here just to thank me, there’s no need."
He did not explain why he appeared there or why he acted to save Lin You, his voice remained cold as usual.
As if talking to a stranger.
"Yes, I am here to thank you." Situ Jian openly admitted his purpose.
Although internally reluctant, no matter how you see it, the man before him saved his two best friends.
As Lin You would say, it’s awkward.
But soon, Situ Jian’s tone shifted: "Consider this as my debt to you. Someday, I’ll surpass you, and then I’ll repay you in full!"
Having said that, regardless of the Changfeng Emperor’s reaction, he turned and left, walking through the palace doors and disappearing into the long corridor.
"Surpass me?"
The Changfeng Emperor murmured, his expression unchanged, lost in thought.
After a while, he slightly tilted his head, glancing at a shadowy corner.
"Go, call Canglang over."
"Yes!"
A voice responded, and suddenly the corner twisted in space, a shadow vanished in an instant.
Canglang King, precisely the King of Yan Lie and Situ Jian’s Kingdom, was also one of the veteran Tier Eleven Lords on the Primordial Continent.
But few people know.
Canglang King was actually nurtured single-handedly by the Changfeng Emperor.
Once the shadow completely disappeared, the Changfeng Emperor withdrew his gaze, sighed slightly, and looked upwards.
In a flash.
The entire palace fell silent, leaving only the sound of the breeze passing through.
Following the Changfeng Emperor’s gaze, one could see the vast void above the Primordial Continent, leading to an unknown destination.
...
On the other side.
Having dealt with matters, Lin You quickly used the teleportation from the recruitment platform to return to his territory.
He sent a message to the five Duke Kings below about the Guiding Space before heading to the World Tree, using the two thousand Faith Fruits that matured today to exchange for Rule Fragments, beginning the mutation of the Legendary Species.
The reason for choosing Legendary Species.
Is because he realized that when facing those Tier Eleven Lords with a lot of Divine Formats, ordinary species are basically ineffective.
After all, he has fewer Divine Formats, unable to enhance species as much as those veteran lords, making ordinary species very weak, at most only useful as cannon fodder.
But Legendary Species are different.
The higher Basic Attributes just cover this gap, preventing him from falling behind in group battles.
Despite consuming more resources, it is considered worth it.
He must restore strength before the Demon invasion ends and go to Subordinate Space to earn more Rule Fragments.
Otherwise, missing this invasion would mean missing a chance to quickly enhance his strength, falling far behind other lords.
Moreover, in Subordinate Space, there’s no Great Emperor watching.
If he’s lucky, he might even acquire Divine Formats from other types.
