Chapter 21: Reading The Heavenly Scripture Fragment

Every time the Purple Ocean Dragon's wings flapped, he instantly crossed a continent.

The scenery changed very quickly.

Qin Yuan took out a chair and table and sat on it.

Phew...

He sighed before taking out the Heavenly Scripture fragment which he covered with a faint mist so only he could see.

Paying no heed to the other's confused reactions, he said to the System. "I want to read it.'

[Are you sure?] The system asks for confirmation.

"Yes."

[Order accepted.]

[10,000 Karma Points are used to read a Heavenly Scripture Fragment.]

[Karma Points: 4,100]

Right after that, Qin Yuan felt his eyes suddenly heat up.

There was no change in the shape of his eyes, but he suddenly felt as if there was another eye within his eyes.

Qin Yuan wasn't sure what had happened, he didn't have time to think about it now as his gaze was quickly drawn to the writings that appeared on the golden paper.

There might be billions of words, but all the words seemed to go straight into his head the moment he saw them.

(Divinity comes from Heaven while Saint Fruits result from the sweat of living beings.

Each of them can get you to the top.

But to get past the top, you need both.

If you have a hundred Saint Fruits, then you need ten Divinities.

If you have ten Divinities, then you need a hundred Saint Fruits.)

The profound ways that people thought did not exist in this world appeared in Qin Yuan's head, causing him to take a cold breath.

Heavenly Path.

This was a way to rob Divinity for a Saint Ancestor and a way to create Saint Fruits for a Divine Emperor.

The first thing he needed to do before doing that was to fuse his body with the Fragment first.

One fragment could basically hold 1 Divinity and 10 Saint Fruits.

'And this Immortal Diamond Body.'

Qin Yuan also obtained a Body Cultivation technique, to be more precise it was a body defense technique.

He couldn't help but be surprised by the word Immortal on the technique.

One description of the technique is that it makes the user's body indestructible.

'Does that mean the other Fragments have a technique of the same level?'

"System, how many Karma Points do I need to master this technique?" Qin Yuan asked.

[To master the technique you already have, you only need 100 Karma Points. However, that technique requires some ingredients, so you need to prepare them first.]

"Well, I can rest easy then."

"It's also the same for the Heavenly Path right?"

[Yes.]

"Then make me master it."

[Order accepted.]

[Karma Points: 4,000]

Immediately after that Qin Yuan felt an understanding, it was so profound, he wasn't even sure he could comprehend it by relying on his own ability.

But now, he understood every single part of it.

Merit Law:

- Eternal Star

<Peak Saint Merit Law>

- Heavenly Path

"Oh, why doesn't it have a level?" Qin Yuan was confused.

[The level of this Merit Law has not been identified.] The system replied.

"What does it mean?" Qin Yuan became more and more unsure.

In the end, he stopped thinking about it, perhaps the answer would only be found when he went further.

Whoosh...

He entered his Space Artifact.

It is an empty space filled with extremely pure energy.

Qin Yuan sat cross-legged there.

After several breaths, he stuck the Fragment to his chest.

At the same time, he took out all of his Saint Fruits.

He then separated ten of them.

The ten Saint Fruits shrunk to the size of sand as he gathered them in his palm.

After that, he attached them to the Fragments.

Whoosh... Whoosh... Whoosh...

The fragment sucked in those ten Saint Fruits.

Right after that, the fragment shone, emitting an extremely ancient gray light.

Slowly, it began to sink into his chest, then appeared in his Heart Space.

"It worked," he said.

It did seem easy, but only supreme experts understood how complicated it was.

Whoosh... Whoosh...

The ten Saint Fruits that entered the fragment came out.

But this time, they were no longer white, they were now gray which somehow gave off a feeling of desolation.

Qin Yuan did not feel a significant difference in his strength, however he felt that his foundation had become much thicker.

He looked at the stats to see the number of his lifespan, but it didn't change at all.

'Well, in the end, it only changed my cultivation... But, maybe it will be different after I have Divinity.'

The problem why Qin Yuan's lifespan had become so short was because his soul and Heart Space had lost a lot of vitality.

Those two things are the foundation for any cultivator.

Divinity on the other hand, was a source of energy that came from heaven itself, it was extremely pure and magical.

In fact, it was the item with the highest value.

Unfortunately even though it continues to appear in every generation, but not everyone can have it.

If he had that, his soul condition and Heart Space would most likely be able to recover.

Thinking of it made Qin Yuan happy.

Even so, he remained serious because

robbing Divinity for him was no easy feat.

After stretching, he exited the space, back onto the Purple Ocean Dragon's back.

The others looked confused as to why he had suddenly entered the Space Artifact.

He wasn't interested in explaining either.

His gaze quickly fell onto a continent that appeared below.

It wasn't very big, but there were countless arks coming out of the continent.

"So this is one of the continents where portals that connect many realms are located," Qin Yuan said in a low voice.

There are countless Lower Realms, they are connected to the Divine World through portals.

Without those portals, it would be impossible for people from the Lower Realms to be able to reach the Divine World which was basically very far from their world.

The Divine Continent, on the other hand, was in a different location to the Divine World.

It's a mysterious place whose exact location is unknown but can be visited through the portal that connects it to the Divine World.

And that is where Divinity appears.
