The crystal that Tang Qi had forcibly dug out from the stomach of the Devouring Beast was currently inside Tang Qi's Dream Kingdom, stored within a never-dying Flame. It was a Flame Spell cast by Tang Qi with divine power, powerful enough to bind the Devouring Power within the crystal.

Although reluctant, under Tang Qi's seemingly amused gaze, Gluttony managed to pull off a human expression of sorrow and unwillingly opened its mouth. With a large tongue roll, it spit out a book wrapped in bones.

On Tang Qi's face appeared a trace of interest.

Among the Mysterious Object Explosion that survived the "Sun Core"'s formidable power, many had suffered various degrees of damage. This was one of the reasons why Tang Qi restrained his desire to possess.

A few Mysterious Objects, however, remained intact.

And this book in his hand was one of them.

The burned-off handle was actually not important.

Because it wasn't a real hammer in the first place, it was simply the result of a native of an Exotic Realm planet, eaten by the Devouring Beast, having a stroke of inspiration.

Tang Qi's gaze focused, and Information Fragment burst forth.

[Extraordinary Artifact: Harper's Book.]

[State: Sealed.]

[Information Fragment One: The most renowned Death Spirit Wizard of the Dark Era, "Lee Harper," a Wizard rumored to have already reached the Demigod Level, had an unimaginable understanding of Death, Spiritual Bodies, witchcraft, magic, and Hidden Knowledge.]

[Information Fragment Two: Late in the Dark Era, he left the Origin Star and ventured into the endless mystery, attempting to become one of the All Spirits Above Mystery. His attempt ended in failure, and before his demise, he wrote down Harper's Book, which contained all the knowledge he possessed.]

[Information Fragment Three: The bones wrapping "Harper's Book" originate from Lee Harper himself, and possess near invulnerable strength, the power to kill spiritual bodies, to cause death... etc.]

[Information Fragment Four: A native of an Exotic Realm picked up "Harper's Book" while Stargazing. Unable to break the Seal, he simply made it into a weapon and named it "Death Hammer."]

...

"Death Hammer?"

Tang Qi looked at the name that flashed through his mind and couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.

What kind of terrible name is that?

Undoubtedly, that helpless Exotic Realm native, like him, was terrible at naming.

"Well, in terms of effect, it does seem quite fitting, just forgot to set it to 'others cannot lift it.'"

After pondering the consequences of using Harper's Book as a Hammer to strike someone, Tang Qi nodded half jokingly.

Just as the Information Fragment indicated, the bones wrapping Harper's Book were not only exceptionally hard but also had the effects of killing spiritual bodies and causing Death.

This meant that if someone unlucky were to be struck by the so-called Death Hammer, their soul within their body might be directly smacked out and then fall.

Playing with it a few times, Tang Qi continued to read the remaining Information Fragments.

"Unlocking Method One: Carved on the little toe bone on the side of Harper's Book is a Summoning Spell. Reciting it in the Chirui Language, the native language of Lee Harper's hometown, has a chance of summoning the Dead Soul of Lee Harper himself, who may be compelled to unlock the seal, but there is a high probability of encountering danger."

"Huh, first write the book, then seal it, and even leave behind a spell to summon one's own Dead Soul?"

The first method immediately drew a mocking cold smile from the corner of Tang Qi's mouth.

If another Transcendent got ahold of this book, they probably wouldn't know that the spell actually summons Lee Harper himself. Acting on a try-and-see death-wish principle, they would most likely end up dead, with the conclusion being the return of the deceased Lee Harper.

After all, he was a Demigod-level Wizard who played with Death and Spiritual Bodies. Even after failing to ascend to Divinity, he still left himself a way out.

As for the Chirui Language, although it is a niche language, there are not too few who are fluent in it, and Tang Qi had long since learned this language from the "Mysterious Hair Tie."

Casually flipping through and glancing at the simple spell written on it, Tang Qi directly looked at the second and third unlocking methods that emerged in his mind.

"Unlocking Method Two: Offer Harper's Book as a sacrifice to a certain 'Death God', in exchange for the book with Lee Harper's bones."

"Unlocking Method Three: Use Pure Divine Power to cleanse the 'Harper's Bone' wrapping the book. There is a fifty percent chance to break the seal and obtain both the intact Harper's Bone and the Book. There's a fifty percent chance to destroy Harper's Bone and retrieve Harper's Book."

Tang Qi's expression shifted, he could actually accomplish both methods.

Although he was unable to face the "Death God" directly, he had a friend, Uorca, a Death God's Representative; offering a Mysterious Object to a Death God was trivial, and considering their relationship, Tang Qi had no worries about being tricked.

The third method was even simpler, just throw it into the Dream Kingdom like the crystal, though there was some risk.

Tang Qi made his decision without thinking too much and chose the third method.

"No matter if the luck is good or bad, the Harper's Book will be obtained in the end."

As these words fell, under Gluttony's extremely reluctant gaze, Tang Qi placed the book in his hands into the Dream Kingdom.

At the same time, in front of him, the "Book of Nothingness" full of Chaos Mushrooms appeared.

Tang Qi sighed, and a pained expression flashed across his face.

Those several dangerous meditation sessions and the Divine Power purifications of the Dream Creatures within his kingdom had nearly all been squandered in the battle with the "Devouring Beast."

Moreover, in the end, he had no choice but to rely on the power of the "Master of the Crucible" to deal with the Monster.
