Chapter 1023: Half-God Equipment Shard

“The Chaos Fire Lotus is mine, kill!”

The Fire Virtue God Lord was ecstatic as he never expected to have such a lucky opportunity after leaving the Half-God Domain. This was much better than obtaining a half-god equipment shard.

With the Chaos Fire Lotus, he had the opportunity to comprehend the complete primal fire dao. Only those who comprehended the complete primal state would be known as the absolute lord.

It was a pity that the number of absolute lords in the universe could be counted with one hand and were even lesser than half-gods.

Most of the half-gods didn’t actually comprehend the primal state. They merely possessed the half-god equipment and half-god energy.

For example, if Li Fuchen12Li FuchenMain Protagonist’s Primary Extreme Sword Art and Primary Extreme Sword Technique both reached the perfection state of star domain-level or rank, Li Fuchen would become an absolute lord. Under the half-gods, no one would be a match for Li Fuchen. If Li Fuchen possessed an incredible universe treasure, he might be able to contest with a half-god.

“Just in time.”

Li Fuchen activated the primal fire dao source essence inside the Chaos Fire Lotus. A lotus-shaped flame appeared and blasted at the Fire Virtue God Lord.

Bang!

The Fire Virtue God Lord was sent flying.

In terms of power, the power produced from the Chaos Fire Lotus was already at the level of an absolute lord. The difference between an unparalleled lord and an absolute lord was rather significant.

Normally speaking, a low-grade universe treasure could only enhance an unparalleled lord’s strength to be slightly stronger than an average unparalleled lord, it wouldn’t reach the level of an absolute lord.

The Fire Virtue God Lord was at most two levels stronger than an unparalleled lord, but still not at the level of an absolute lord.

If an unparalleled lord’s combat strength was 80 then an absolute lord’s combat strength would be 100. As for the Bright God Lord and Fire Virtue God Lord, their combat strength would be somewhere between 80 to 100.

“Attack together!”

Seeing that the Fire Virtue God Lord wasn’t a match, the Bright God Lord and the others started to bombard Li Fuchen.

“Fire Lotus Protection.”

Li Fuchen drew out the primal fire dao source essence to form a fire lotus to protect himself.

Bang Bang Bang…

When the attacks from the quartet landed on the fire lotus, it didn’t even shake the fire lotus.

As for exhausting the Chaos Fire Lotus’ energy, it was impossible. The Chaos Fire Lotus contained a huge amount of energy and not even 100 unparalleled lords could be compared with it.

“Damn it.” The Fire Virtue God Lord was extremely frustrated.

He had to obtain the Chaos Fire Lotus, but the problem was how to obtain it.

Boom Boom Boom…

With the Chaos Fire Lotus, Li Fuchen was like an upstart who was drawing the Chaos Fire Lotus’ energy crazily as he blasted at the quartet.

One day, two days, three days…

The quartet’s energy had a limit and under the blastings from the Chaos Fire Lotus, they were in a miserable state.

“You forced me!” The Fire Virtue God Lord’s eyes were fuming with fire. A scarlet red shard emerged from his chest.

This piece of scarlet shard contained astounding power. From the looks of it, it seemed more fearsome than the Chaos Fire Lotus.

“Half-god equipment shard?” Li Fuchen was shocked.

A half-god equipment shard was a part of a half-god equipment that had the traits of a half-god equipment. He wasn’t sure if the Chaos Fire Lotus could withstand the attacks.

“Go!” The Fire Virtue God Lord swung his hand and shot the scarlet shard at Li Fuchen.

Pfff!

The fire lotus protection was penetrated and had also penetrated Li Fuchen’s body.

Li Fuchen estimated that at least 1% of his energy had been destroyed. Li Fuchen wasn’t a regular unparalleled lord but a pinnacle unparalleled lord and had an immense amount of energy. But in the face of the half-god equipment shard, it still destroyed 1% of his energy with a single attack.

“This is the power of a half-god equipment shard?” Li Fuchen was rather shakened. Without the Chaos Fire Lotus’ protection, at least a good portion of his energy would be destroyed.

“Fire Lotus Stack.” Li Fuchen produced several fire lotuses to protect himself.

“Go, go, go!”

The Fire Virtue God Lord controlled the scarlet shard to repeatedly attack Li Fuchen.

“You shall stop!”

Just as some calamity power had recovered, Li Fuchen gathered the calamity power in his palm and clenched the scarlet shard ferociously.

The scarlet shard was like a scarlet little dragon frantically wiggling and trying to get free.

“Let go!”

The Fire Virtue God Lord was anxious as this half-god equipment shard was something he relied on to survive. If he lost it, his strength would decrease several times and would be inferior to the Bright God Lord.

“In your dreams!”

Li Fuchen started to use the Chaos Fire Lotus’ energy to cleanse the Fire Virtue God Lord’s imprint on the scarlet shard.

Gradually, the scarlet shard’s strength to struggle became weaker.

“No…” The Fire Virtue God Lord’s eyes were widened as he was extremely regretful.

Ultimately, the scarlet shard stopped struggling and was kept into Li Fuchen’s spatial ring.

“Primary Extreme Lord, it is my fault. Please return the shard to me.” The Fire Virtue God Lord was speechless.

Li Fuchen sneered, “Do you think it is possible?”

Even if Li Fuchen was a fool, he would also know that most of the Fire Virtue God Lord’s power originated from the half-god equipment shard. Without it, the Fire Virtue God Lord’s threat would greatly decline.

“If you offend the god race, you shall be doomed for eternity. I advise you to consider it carefully.” The Bright God Lord said in a cold tone.

He had never imagined that the situation would develop to this stage.

According to his plan, even without the Fire Virtue God Lord, he was confident in taking down Li Fuchen alone.

Everything was thwarted because Li Fuchen had too many universe treasures.

“Primary Extreme Lord, you don’t know how strong the god race is. Let alone the Swordsmen Guild, not even a few of the major power factions added together would be as powerful as the god race.” The Dusk God Lord warned.

“Is that so? I really wish to find out how powerful the god race is.”

Li Fuchen naturally knew the god race’s strength. On the Lord Rankings, 3 of the top 10 unparalleled lords were from the god race. It also meant that 30% of the half-gods in the universe were probably from the god race too. The Swordsmen Guild didn’t even have 10%.

However, there were things that wouldn’t be resolved just by enduring. The other party might just think that you were a pushover.

Therefore, it didn’t matter if it was the god race. Li Fuchen didn’t have to fear as long as none of the god race’s half-gods were here.

Of course, even if Li Fuchen was fearless, he would need to be prepared. If his Tree of Life could grow to the level of a high-grade universe treasure, even if he encountered a half-god, he would be able to put up a contest and not perish on the first attack.

“Obstinate. In the future, you shall become a must-kill target for our god race.” The Ice Fire God Lord spoke in a chilling tone.

Several days later, the quartet couldn’t break through Li Fuchen’s fire lotus protection and their energy was severely depleted.

“Fire Lotus Extinction!”

After using the Chaos Fire Lotus for a period of time, he was more proficient in using it. He was now able to burst out with 3 times the primal fire dao source essence. A thick magma-like fire lotus was blasted at the Dusk God Lord.

Bang!

The Dusk God Lord’s Dusk God Domain collapsed and half his body was turned into magma.

“Damn it!” The Dusk God Lord was so frightened as he retreated and didn’t dare to get near to Li Fuchen.

“Fire Lotus Dragon Dance!”

This time, Li Fuchen extracted 5 times the primal fire dao source essence and blasted it at the Ice Fire God Lord.

Boom!

The Ice Fire God Lord wasn’t doing better than the Dusk God Lord. He didn’t have a lot of energy left, and more than 20% had been destroyed from that attack.

“Fire Lotus Sky Unlock!”

Drawing out 8 times the primal fire dao source essence, Li Fuchen blasted at the Bright God Lord.

“Not good, he is drawing out more energy from the Chaos Fire Lotus.”

The quartet were repeatedly getting pushed back. All of them had exhausted energy and if they continued, they would be killed by Li Fuchen.

“Damn it, damn it, damn it…” The Fire Virtue God Lord was extremely frustrated and nearly lost control. He didn’t obtain anything and had even lost his fire dao half-god equipment shard that he relied on for survival. It was too huge of a setback for him.

“Fire Lotus Creation!”

10 times the primal fire dao source essence was transformed into a giant fire lotus that enveloped all four of them.

“Go!” 

The quartet didn’t even dare to receive the attack. They attacked together to create a blast and left pathetically.

“That is truly taxing.”

Drawing out energy from a mid-grade universe treasure was rather tiring for Li Fuchen. Especially at the latter part where it was more strenuous to draw out more of the primal fire dao source essence.

However, everything was worth it. On the Lord Rankings, he was probably the only person who could repel four god lords. If it was anyone else, like the Taichi Sword Progenitor or the Seven Decimation Saber Lord, they would have perished.

As for the exposure of the Chaos Fire Lotus, so be it. It was hard for everything to go smoothly, there was always a risk when doing anything.

As Li Fuchen got nearer to the Inception Palace, he encountered more unparalleled lords.

Li Fuchen didn’t bother about unparalleled lords without inception keys, but if he encountered an unparalleled lord with an inception key, he would offer first before attacking. If the other party was willing to trade the inception key for three peak-grade treasures, he would trade. If the other party wasn’t willing, he would snatch. But he would only snatch the inception key and wouldn’t touch their personal wealth.

After a few dozen years, Li Fuchen obtained 7 inception keys.

Seven low-grade universe treasures would be worth at least a few trillion peak-grade spirit stones. It would be easy to even obtain 10 trillion.

However, universe treasures were always in demand but didn’t have the supply. Therefore, the prices would always be conservative.

As for the exact price, it would be during the deal.

Li Fuchen finally saw the Inception Palace on this day.

It was emitting an ancient aura as though it had existed since the birth of the universe.

The Inception Palace was made with stone and Li Fuchen could see that it was actually the inception ancient stone. Any single piece of inception ancient stone would be a peak-grade treasure. It could supplement an earth dao cultivator’s cultivation. If the entire Inception Palace was built with the inception ancient stone, its value would be far beyond a high-grade universe treasure. Not even 100 or 1000 high-grade universe treasures would be enough. The Inception Palace would definitely be among the list of most valuable things in the entire universe.

“Such wealth.” Li Fuchen was amazed.

Before entering the Inception Palace, Li Fuchen felt his body becoming heavy. The ancient aura from the Inception Palace was like a star pressing down on the body.

In the vicinity of the Inception Palace, Li Fuchen couldn’t even sense any universe law or universe source. It also meant that it was impossible to replenish energy near the Inception Hall. One would have to rely on one’s own strength to battle as there was no universe law to enhance one’s combat strength.

“I wonder how many will die here.” Li Fuchen sighed.

In the universe, there were too many places with vicious environments. The dark void between the star domains, the high-class dark voids between the galaxies, the Devil Horn Star Sea, the Water God Tomb. In most situations, most of the lords would perish in those places.

Without much hesitation, Li Fuchen entered the Inception Palace.
