Chapter 606 - 606 The Obstruction of the Immortal Bone
“If you obtain the complete power of the world, you will become the God of this world, an omnipotent God!”
Zhao Yan’s breathing became rapid when she talked about the benefits of obtaining the world’s power.
“Unfortunately, the world’s power has already disintegrated into countless fragments. You can already be considered extremely lucky to obtain this core part. As for the complete…”
Zhao Yan sighed and shook her head.
Back then, those existences who had surpassed the Supreme Realm could not obtain the world’s power. How could Lin Qiye, who was only in the Human Immortal Realm, recover it all?
“Forget it. You don’t need to think about this anymore. Anyway, you just need to know that if you can use the power you have, it can help you resist that guy. However, you have to reach the Celestial Realm first. Otherwise, there is no way to make up for the difference in strength between you two.”
Lin Qiye fell silent. He knew the difference between him and the white-bearded elder.
Both of them controlled a portion of the world’s power. Although the portion in his hands seemed stronger, the strength of the world’s power would change according to the power of the controller.
The stronger the controller, the stronger the world’s power that could be used.
With Lin Qiye’s current strength, the strength of the purple lightning was indeed enough to pose a threat to an ordinary powerhouse in the Celestial Realm.
But that was all.
If he wanted to defeat or even kill a powerhouse at the Celestial Realm, he would have to at least advance to the Earth Immortal Realm.
As for the white-bearded elder, who was already a half Supreme Being and had some world power, he was a peak expert.
If Lin Qiye wanted to fight against him, he had to think of a way to advance to a Celestial and strengthen the power of the world he controlled.
“Sister Yan, time is of the essence. Those demons won’t give Master a chance to break through. Can we find a way to obtain more world power and increase Master’s strength from another aspect?”
After Wan Meng heard Zhao Yan’s words, she frowned.
Lin Qiye was now stuck with the problem of the immortal bone. If he did not remove or fuse the immortal bone, he would not be able to continue advancing.
Zhao Yan wasn’t clear about the situation. While she rejected Wan Meng’s idea, she also asked a question.
“The fragments of the world’s power are scattered all over the place, and some might even be under our feet. But if you want to obtain it, it’ll depend on fate.
“That traitor spent 100,000 years and was only lucky enough to obtain a weak fragment.
“Rather than wasting time searching for the world power, it’s better to hurry up and think of a way to break through.”
Zhao Yan turned to look at Lin Qiye.
“Aren’t you very talented? There were no bottlenecks on your cultivation path, and you could advance to the Immortal Realm in less than ten years. As long as you can gather enough resources, it shouldn’t be a problem to break through to the Celestial Realm shortly, right?”
Before Lin Qiye could say anything, Wan Meng answered, “Sister Yan, you don’t know this, but Master is currently in trouble and can’t make a breakthrough shortly.”
Zhao Yan looked at Lin Qiye. Seeing that he didn’t say anything, she knew that Wan Meng wasn’t lying.
Just as she was about to ask about the situation, she suddenly remembered Wan Meng was about to remove Lin Qiye’s immortal bone when she came over.
Hence, she asked tentatively, “The trouble you’re in is related to your immortal bone?”
Generally speaking, no one would actively remove their own immortal bone.
It would only reduce one’s strength without any benefits and was usually used to punish those who had committed sins. It was the first time she had seen it being used on oneself.
Wan Meng glanced at Lin Qiye. Seeing that he had no intention of hiding anything, she took the initiative and said, “Yes, Master’s immortal bone is a little special. Although it’s overwhelmingly powerful, it’s still stopping him from improving his cultivation level.”
“We planned to get rid of that immortal bone and then let Master raise his cultivation. However, the power within that immortal bone has already exceeded the scope of my control. There’s no way to remove it now, so I can only let it fuse naturally.”
Zhao Yan was suspicious.
She had never heard of anyone’s immortal bone that even the divine weapon, Wan Meng, couldn’t do anything to.
Even if it was the white-bearded elder from the Heavenly God Palace, Wan Meng could easily pull out his immortal bone if he let down his defense.
“I can take a look,” Zhao Yan said.
Lin Qiye nodded and took off his clothes, revealing his back to Zhao Yan.
What entered her eyes was a firm back. Although the skin was slightly smooth and tender, it could not hide the explosive power bursting from within.
Under his smooth skin, there were faint flashes of lightning.
In the center of his back, a straight purple line leaped up.
It was the immortal bone that had not completely fused with Lin Qiye’s body.
Zhao Yan swallowed as she looked at it. She could not help but reach out and touch the purple vertical line.
As soon as she touched it, she felt an extremely comfortable feeling flowing through her whole body, making her almost unable to hold back her groan.
She quickly coughed to hide her embarrassment.
“Ahem… Your immortal bone is indeed extraordinary. I can feel that the power it contains has already surpassed that of anyone I’ve ever seen. In fact, I feel it might even be comparable to the divine purple lightning!”
Zhao Yan was shocked when she said that.
The purple thunder originated from the origin energy of this world. Even though it was only a fragment, it was still incomparable to the immortal bones condensed by ordinary cultivators.
Even the white-bearded elder, who already had one foot on the threshold of the Supreme Realm, could not possibly have the ability to resist the world’s power.
“So what if the power it contains is strong? It’s just a burden.”
Lin Qiye laughed at himself. He was like a man running for his life, his feet locked in gold.
What was supposed to be a treasure had become a burden at this critical moment.
“You can’t control the power of that immortal bone?” Zhao Yan asked in confusion.
Lin Qiye shook his head, and Wan Meng explained, “Master’s immortal bone’s energy is sealed inside. It will only come out to defend itself when it’s touched by external forces. Other than that, it won’t come out even if Master is hurt.”
“What?”
...
Zhao Yan couldn’t believe it. The immortal bone would protect itself but not its owner.
It could simply be described as ridiculous.
“Is this immortal bone really yours?”
Zhao Yan began to question whether Lin Qiye’s immortal bone came from a super expert from ancient times.
Lin Qiye only nodded in response.
After all, the transformation of this immortal bone might be related to the blessing of the main world.
He had no way of explaining those things to others.
“That’s not right. Only when someone else’s immortal bone is in your body would it require time and resources to refine due to different power attributes and other reasons. If it’s your own immortal bone, how could it possibly hinder your advancement?”
Zhao Yan was still in disbelief.
Wan Meng stood up and explained, “Sister Yan, you don’t know this, but the reason why Master’s immortal bone hindered his advancement wasn’t because of the rejection of power.”
“Then why?”
...
“I just realized it too. When I was removing the immortal bone for Master, I realized the immortal bone seemed to be missing something.”
Lin Qiye immediately tensed when he heard this.
“You should have told me earlier about such an important matter.”
Wan Meng said innocently, “Uh… Didn’t Sister Yan come in just now? And I’ve said it now, so why are you so fierce?”
Lin Qiye was speechless, and Zhao Yan could not help but cover her mouth and laugh.
“Alright, it’s my fault. Little girl, hurry up and tell me, what is missing from my immortal bone?”
Seeing that Zhao Yan was taking the blame, Wan Meng blinked at Lin Qiye and explained, “There’s nothing wrong with Master’s immortal bone, but the energy hidden within is sealed by the power of the immortal bone itself. This means that if the immortal bone wants to maintain its growth, it must absorb energy from the outside continuously.
“Because Master’s cultivation is only at the Human Immortal Realm, the immortal bone believes that any energy beyond this realm is useless.
“Once Master tries to break through, the immortal bone will immediately absorb the extra energy.”
Zhao Yan was even more confused.
“According to what you’ve said, even if that immortal bone can absorb energy, there must be a limit, right? As long as he accumulates enough energy, couldn’t he still break through?”
“It won’t be that simple.”
