93 Conditions (2/2)

Now, from the looks of it, the Celestials were relying on both their powerful bodies and their nomological insights, making it so their bodies were innately compatible with laws.

Apart from the Celestials, all the other races had their shortcomings. Humans had weak bodies, while the Fey were poor at laws. The Soul race and Ghost race were even weaker in these aspects.

If a human was able to be simultaneously strong in both laws and body, perhaps… they could emulate the Celestials and devour a Heavenly Dao fragment?

However, Bai Yueyin still shook her head. ”Up to now, it's unlikely any human has attempted it before. Death is a possibility upon failure.”

No one had attempted it, but not just because of a general limited strength. There was a more simple reason—there were too few Heavenly Dao fragments. Apart from the peerless Celestial expert, no other person had the chance to do so.

Even Heavenly Dao fragments were a handful among Celestials.

The vying for this Heavenly Dao fragment was mainly because of it being in the Xuanyuan Dune. This news had been kept a secret by the factions in control of the Xuanyuan Dune. Otherwise, a treasure that could shake the Chaos Heavens was not something such second-rate factions could vie for.

That included the Celestial expert. His strength was not considered very powerful among Celestials. Typically speaking, he should have reported the existence of the Heavenly Dao fragment to his higher-ups. The fact that he was there alone made it evident that he was planning on taking it all for himself.

Bai Yueyin said, ”Even if you plan on devouring the Heavenly Dao fragment, it's best you do so after you reach the Godly Monarch realm. Even Celestial experts would have to reach the Godly Monarch first before they attempt to devour the fragment.”

Yi Yun smiled and said, ”You are getting ahead of yourself. It will not be easy getting this Heavenly Dao fragment with my strength. Even if it was left behind by the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch, I have to be able to hold onto it while remaining alive.”

Yi Yun's combat strength was too weak when faced with the few Godly Monarchs.

However, even if he could not obtain the Heavenly Dao fragment, Yi Yun wished to probe the methods of fusing with a Heavenly Dao fragment. After all, he was destined to oppose the Celestials in the future. Even if there were very few Heavenly Dao fragments, it was still possible for him to attain one.

Yi Yun looked at Divineheart and asked, ”I'm indeed interested in the Heavenly Dao fragment. Might I know what you are getting at?”

Divineheart smiled and said, ”As long as you are willing to be a guest Elder of my Taixia, I can dictate that you will be able to study the Heavenly Dao fragment for a third of the time if we obtain it.”

Studying a Heavenly Dao fragment would expend the nomological forces within. The Taixia Ancient Mining had many people. There were already two Grand Elders at the Godly Monarch realm. If Yi Yun were to take a third, it was even possible that he would have more time to study the fragment than a Grand Elder. Divineheart was being sufficiently generous in making such a promise.

Of course, this was under the premise that the Heavenly Dao fragment was obtained. If not, everything was just empty talk.

Divineheart naturally knew this as he said, ”Obtaining the Heavenly Dao fragment with just me alone is just too improbable. But if I have you, the probability might rise to twenty percent. If we succeed, you can choose to be my Taixia's guest Elder. If we fail, my Taixia has little to offer that can attract you anyway. We will then annul this hundred-year contract. Young Brother Yi, you then be free to do as you wish. I just hope that we will be considered friends when we meet again in the future.”

Divineheart's conditions were definitely sincere. They were beneficial to Yi Yun in every single way.

Yi Yun pondered for a few moments before saying, ”What happens if I obtain the Heavenly Dao fragment by my strength alone?”

Divineheart looked at Yi Yun in astonishment. He never expected Yi Yun to say something like that.

As a Godly Monarch, he did not even have the confidence of obtaining the fragment. No matter how strong Yi Yun was, he was still far inferior to a Godly Monarch. Ignoring the numerous experts and Godly Monarchs of the Ghosts, Fey, and Souls, along with the Celestial expert from the Myriad Demon Valley, things could only get more terrifying.

In such a situation, it was a good outcome to merely survive. Yet, Yi Yun was planning on trying to snatch food from the tiger's proverbial mouth?

Wasn't he being too conceited?

Divineheart appreciated geniuses, but reaching for what was beyond one's grasp was not ideal. By overestimating himself, Yi Yun was likely to suffer or even perish on his future martial path.

He frowned, but still managed to say, ”If you obtain the Heavenly Dao fragment by your own strength, that Heavenly Dao fragment will naturally be yours to keep. It will have nothing to do with my Taixia.”

”Alright then.”

Yi Yun agreed. He was lacking in strength and had offended numerous enemies. If he were to really encounter other Godly Monarchs, he was afraid that they would immediately kill him. It was already not easy for him to approach the sealed area, much less speak of snatching the Heavenly Dao fragment.

By cooperating with Divineheart, he was able to feel more rooted at the very least.
