School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 2169: Chapter 2255: The Origin of the Bronze Fragment

Whether it was the Fire Poison Ancestor or Toutuo Shangren, their strength was incredibly powerful. In fact, they were already in a high-ranking position within the Hundred Clan Domain.

Supreme Kings receive special privileges within the Hundred Clan Domain, but there are always stronger people and greater heavens beyond. In this vast Outer Domain environment, the competition is intense. If you’re not a major sect practitioner, loose cultivators relying only on their own resources fall far behind; it might take hundreds or thousands of years without any progress in realm.

Yet, if you rashly join a sect, internal conflicts are severe within, and loose cultivators are especially unwelcome, not only losing freedom but also possibly failing to receive due resources.

The Supreme King Realm, the higher one ascends, the more it’s filled with a relentless pursuit for greater strength. That’s why powerful individuals like Tianshu Zi choose to take this shortcut.

Seeing Tianshu Zi use a secret technique to escape, the Fire Poison Ancestor and Toutuo Shangren were already scared witless.

That little child shattered arrays with his bare hands, severely injuring Tianshu Zi. Such a scenario of raw power breaking all techniques could only happen under one circumstance—the power of that naked child was... far above Tianshu Zi.

”Another Heavenly Position strong person, yet even stronger than Tianshu Zi.” The Fire Poison Ancestor suddenly lost all inclination to move, kneeling on the ground. Toutuo Shangren followed closely; they knew there was simply no chance of escaping in front of such a strong figure.

”No... don’t eat us...”

In matters of life and death, even knowing such pleas might be in vain, the Fire Poison Ancestor frantically tried the last resort.

He closed his eyes. The next moment would decide his life and death, his heart pounding violently, his breathing becoming extremely labored.

At that moment, his spirit completely lacked any Great Star Position Supreme King’s presence.

”Why shouldn’t I eat you?” The little brat turned his eyes, staring at the Fire Poison Ancestor.

Drool almost dripped from his mouth; the old man might be a bit old, but his cultivation was still decent. Despite being slightly inferior to the one who just fled, he was definitely appetizing enough for him.

The Fire Poison Ancestor was scared to death: ”As long as you don’t eat me, I can offer you a treasure I’ve obtained that holds great secrets.”

The Fire Poison Ancestor, seemingly remembering something, hurriedly bowed before Chen Nan beside the little child: ”Chen Daoyou, I lack eyesight to recognize Mount Tai. Please put in a good word for me. If this senior spares my life, I will definitely take you to my cave to retrieve that treasure. You won’t lose out.”

”You’ve been talking so long, what’s this treasure anyway, you better not be making it up?” Chen Nan doubted the Fire Poison Ancestor had any treasure worth mentioning, but before the little brat could eat him, he could at least gather everything from the old man’s possessions, which should be quite rich.

”It’s a bronze fragment, but even my Lifebound Pill Fire couldn’t destroy it in the slightest. I once tried to refine the fragment, but a powerful will almost obliterated me.”

The Fire Poison Ancestor’s eyes showed a look of fear, evidently not something he made up.

It was a genuine fear from the bottom of his heart.

”Why does the bronze fragment he’s mentioning feel so familiar?” Chen Nan furrowed his brow, recalling he might have heard or seen it somewhere before, and started to ponder deeply.

Seeing Chen Nan in thought, the little brat grew impatient: ”Chen Nan, have you thought it through or not? Should I eat this guy or not, what does a bronze fragment matter.”

Chen Nan considered and then suddenly had a flash of insight, recalling a matter related to the True Dragon Secret Realm where the Haotian Tower had tricked the Five Sects’ strong practitioners, Feng and Thunder Saints contributed a piece—a bronze fragment.

At that time, he originally thought that bronze fragment wasn’t valuable, did a small favor by giving it up, but Haotian Tower reminded him to keep it.

Chen Nan found it odd then. Haotian Tower usually dismissed everything; why did it suddenly change?

Later, Haotian Tower threw that fragment into his Storage Ring, where Chen Nan saw it lying next to the Three-faced God Puppet, realizing that bronze fragment might be extraordinary.

Now hearing the Fire Poison Ancestor mention it, Chen Nan remembered that small item.

Chen Nan glanced over with Divine Sense, and the bronze fragment was still quietly within his Storage Ring.

”The Small Tower’s judgment shouldn’t be off,” Chen Nan mused silently.

Yet his face showed a disdainful expression, ”Old man, a will within a bronze fragment that can obliterate you? Are you joking with me, little brat...”

Chen Nan appeared ready for the little brat to feast.

Frightened, the Fire Poison Ancestor suddenly conjured a bronze fragment in his palm: ”Chen Daoyou, my words are true, if you don’t believe me... see for yourself.”

In his panic, he could no longer afford deception and directly presented the bronze fragment.

Initially intending to trick Chen Nan and the others, hoping for a chance to escape, now he had to beg for a sliver of survival.

Chen Nan instantly activated the Absorption Star Method, pulling the bronze fragment into his palm for a closer inspection.

This bronze fragment was identical to the one Feng and Thunder Saints had given him, but he couldn’t discern any mystery.

”If I claim not to recognize it, won’t it ruin my grand image? The little brat might not follow me later.” Chen Nan considered internally, faking a look before tucking it into the Storage Ring.

”Just this crappy thing? Anything else?” Chen Nan asked slowly and steadily.

Frustrated, the Fire Poison Ancestor handed over his Storage Ring, pleading: ”Chen Daoyou, if you spare me, I will serve you like a slave in the future...”

”Stop with the empty bravado, the Fire Spirit Pearl and Heavenly Phoenix Blood Fruit, hand them over.”

Although the Fire Spirit Pearl had already shrunk, given the principle of plucking every feather, Chen Nan wouldn’t forego it.

The Fire Poison Ancestor, choked with anger, handed it over nonetheless.

Chen Nan received the Fire Spirit Pearl and inspected it carefully; indeed, the fire attribute power within was substantial. If he absorbed it directly, the forty-nine Divine Fire Avatars could definitely double.

”One hundred and eight Divine Fire Avatars would certainly be impressive. If I find enough Kui Water Crystals to enhance the Water Clone, then my Water and Fire Magic Ball could greatly strengthen.” Chen Nan calculated internally, unable to suppress a smile.

Seeing Chen Nan’s smile, the Fire Poison Ancestor felt a very bad omen.

He thought Chen Nan might strike, so he instantly activated Divine Power, intending to charge at Chen Nan and go jade-shattering.

”Whizz!”

Just as he flew up but hadn’t yet reached Chen Nan, the little brat opened his mouth, and the Fire Poison Ancestor felt his body completely uncontrollable.

Involuntarily, he flew toward the little brat, caught in a force so strong it couldn’t be resisted.
