Chapter 1935 – The Skull of the Shaman Ancestor

Chapter 1935 – The Skull of the Shaman Ancestor

“Just like you said…” Wu Ru and Cen Sui inhaled sharply at the same time, their scalps crawling with numbness. The connate lotus of three hundred and sixty-five ranks flared with the power of order. It tore apart the deception from the connate treasure and revealed the truth to their eyes.

A horrific vortex and countless severed limbs assaulted their senses. If it wasn’t for Lu Yun, they’d be like the owners of these limbs—dead and floating in the void.

“Take a close look and see if there’s anyone alive out there,” Lu Yun said.

“Alive?” Cen Sui curled his lip. “No one can survive in that apart from peak grand supremes. I’m one step away from being a peak grand supreme, but that one step is the difference between heaven and earth.

“Peak grand supremes would survive, but there would be no other outcome other than death for me.”

“Indeed.” Wu Ru swept a glance at Cen Sui. “What I seek is likely destroyed as well, if your junior brother Cen Ran really brought it here.”

“What did he take from you?” Lu Yun asked curiously. He’d thought that Wu Ru wanted to kill Cen Sui for one of the man’s treasures, but it rather seemed the other way around. That was why Wu Ru pursued the man so relentlessly.

“I don’t know what it is either,” Cen Sui scratched his head. “It’s a skull made out of a piece of empyrean crystal. I took it from a junior shaman that I robbed back in the day.”

“Robbed?” Lu Yun’s jaw dropped.

“Pah, Lu Yun, do you think Cen Sui is some benevolent saint?” Wu Ru sneered. “The void robbers of the chief worlds rob merchant vessels along their merchant roads. He’s the mastermind behind them!”

Lu Yun broke out in a coughing fit. Cen Sui was a muscular hulk who seemed as open as a book. He was the chief of the void robbers??

Cen Sui pursued his lips. “There are so many void robbers in the chief worlds, how are they all my men? I just took pity on some of them and gave them a place to stay. Somehow, that made me a robber too!”

“And so you somehow found yourself robbing people?” Wu Ru retorted. “The skull of empyrean crystal that you speak of is an ultimate treasure of my shamanic race. The junior shaman you robbed was the son of the last shaman king. He is now the current shaman king.”

Cen Sui shuddered convulsively.

“A skull of empyrean crystal,” Lu Yun smacked his lips. He had a piece of empyrean crystal the size of a human head too. They were extraordinarily precious materials; one piece the size of a speck of dust could manifest an entire major world. But no one would use that resource to do such a thing.

There were enough major worlds in the chief worlds, there was no need for more. Instead, empyrean crystals were premier refinement ingredients so valuable that their worth was measured in cities. Even grand supremes fought over them.

Diexi’s past self was buried in a coffin of empyrean crystal. Her background was likely another enormous secret; she had to have been a peak grand supreme in her past life.

Lu Yun knew that what made the shamanic treasure valuable wasn’t the crystal itself, but the treasure it’d become.

“The skull isn’t carved out of empyrean crystal,” Wu Ru muttered. “It’s the skull of the shamanic ancestor, left behind after he died.”

“What?” Both Lu Yun and Cen Sui blinked.

“That’s not possible! Not even peak grand supremes can refine their skull into empyrean crystal after they die. So, so, so, w-was your ancestor an empyrean supreme?!” Cen Sui stammered.

“How can the two of you possibly understand the methods of us shamans?” Wu Ru curled his lip. “The hallowed ancestor was not an empyrean supreme, but he was only half a step away. He died in his tribulation! He would’ve become the second empyrean supreme of the chief worlds had he passed, but sadly, he failed his trial!”

He flicked a sideways glance at Lu Yun; the young man was busy addressing the goosebumps rising over his body.

“So the skull of my race’s ancestor is here. Can you now tell us what else is in here?” Wu Ru pressed. “How did this disordered vortex turn into the Disordered Island? Or is it the other way around?”

He’d told Lu Yun everything on his mind to pave the way for an information exchange. Since Yun Yi stood behind the young man, Wu Ru didn’t dare try any tricks or force the young man into giving up knowledge. He could only use his own secrets in trade.

“Damn it, why are things turning out like this?” Lu Yun ground his teeth before replying with resignation, “This is indeed Disordered Island and there is indeed a connate treasure about to emerge.”

“Huh?” The two grand supremes paused.

“But the connate treasure should be an incredibly mighty treasure of disorder. Once it emerges, it will collect all of the disordered force in the sea and turn this area into a massive vortex!” Lu Yun took a deep breath. “The treasure should’ve formed its own sentience by now, but it’s just a fragment of thought. It needs to devour other true spirits or souls if it wants to become a true treasure spirit or living being.

“Therefore, it used the treasure to disguise this area as Disordered Island once more. It recreated the signs of a connate treasure about to emerge and set up a massive trap for you grand supremes.”

Cen Sui and Wu Ru shook with horror.

“The empyrean crystal skull! Damn it!” Cen Sui quickly realized. That was no ordinary treasure made of empyrean crystal, but a real skull! If the will of the disordered treasure was that strong, it would refine the skull and obtain shamanic dao!

“You fucking bastard, why did you bring it here?!” Wu Ru bawled at Cen Sui.

A quick look at NovelFull.com will leave you more fulfilled.

The man had no idea what to say.

“I just wanted to borrow the island’s power to get rid of you… Only that skull could lure you here…” he mumbled. He’d reached the end of his rope after being hunted by the shamans for so long. Wu Ru was their greatest expert and the race wouldn’t be a threat anymore after he was gone.

Who would’ve thought the situation would end up like this?

The strength of the shamanic ancestor, one infinitely close to empyrean supreme, was sealed inside the skull. If the disordered treasure swallowed it, it was only a matter of time before a half step empyrean supreme emerged.

“But the treasure’s will shouldn’t be that strong yet or it wouldn’t lay a trap. It’d go on the hunt instead, so we still have a chance! Additionally, I want that disordered treasure. You guys can split up whatever else we get!” Lu Yun barked out. There shouldn’t just be one singular treasure in the vortex, there ought to be other living beings too!
