Chapter 488: Primal Divine Beast Ya Zi

The Shifters’ Ruins were also called the Shifters’ Sanctuary.

The entire planet was called the Shifter Emperor’s Planet.

Within the Shifter Emperor’s Planet, there was only one water source.

The body of water was also called the Shifters’ Sacred Pool.

The Sacred Pool was located under the statue in the center of the Shifter Emperor’s City.

Jiang Feng stepped on the Somersault Cloud and headed directly toward the statue, ignoring the Shifter Emperor’s Residence.

From his conversation with Shen Luo, he knew that there were no treasures within the Shifter Emperor’s Residence. All of them were in the depths of the Sacred Pool, including the Second Stage of his inheritance.

That was why there was no need for him to go to the Shifter Emperor’s Residence. Instead, he went directly toward Donghuang Taiyi’s statue.

Once he had arrived next to the statue, Jiang Feng felt that he was as small as an ant.

Even with his height, he was no taller than the statue’s toe. The statue was very tall indeed.

After giving it some thought, he understood why. That was the Shifters’ totem and faith, therefore the bigger it was the better.

Whoosh!

As he sat on the Somersault Cloud, he flew directly toward the statue’s head. That was because the entrance was within the bell held upward by Donghuang Taiyi.

That bell was the Donghuang Bell.

Once he had entered the Donghuang Bell, he saw that within the bell was a giant entrance where the Inner Bell was.

He entered without any hesitation.

The passage was very long and crooked. He spent almost one minute before reaching the end of the passage.

At the end of the passage, it opened to a huge chamber.

There were many ores and stalactites within the chamber, and there was a gigantic pool in the middle of it.

However, the pool was all dried up and there was no water within at all.

Snore…

At the depth of the pool came the sound of snoring.

He knew that it had to be that Primal Divine Beast that Shen Luo had mentioned.

After giving it a thought, he jumped into the pool and reached for its depths.

Very quickly, he had fallen into the depths of the pool. It was like a hub where many tunnels were connected to it. His guess was that the tunnels were where the water would flow and reach out to the other places on the Shifter Emperor’s Planet.

In the middle of the pool was a gigantic monster with the body of a leopard with horns on its head and a dragon’s tail.

“Can this be…” When Jiang Feng saw it, his heart instantly trembled. At that moment, all he wanted to do was to escape.

As soon as that thought crossed his mind, the giant beast opened up its eyes that were shaped like lanterns and looked at him as he said, “New Shifter Emperor, are you very afraid of me?”

Jiang Feng smiled. “Not afraid, but in awe. Your mighty reputation precedes you, Ya Zi!”

Correct. The one in front of him was indeed the Primal Divine Beast Ya Zi.

Ya Zi was also a Primal Beast of disaster, and was infamous for its brutality and bloodlust!

Ya Zi stared straight at him and said, “Looks like you do know me. However, please do not misinterpret the idiom “Ya Zi Will Reciprocate.” Other than making sure that I exact all my vengeance, I will also reciprocate all kindness. Everyone will only understand one part of the idiom, but not the other. If it is not because of my principle, I will not help Donghuang to guard the Shifter Emperor’s Planet.

After hearing Ya Zi’s words, Jiang Feng was slightly stunned. He then tried to recall the information from the books that he had read.

Some of the books did say that while Ya Zi was quite cruel, they also mentioned that it would always repay a debt.

However, because it was ugly and vicious, very few people had shown him kindness and some even hunted it down. That was why most of the legends were about him having his vengeance, but very few spoke about it repaying any sort of kindness.

And after a long time, the idiom “Ya Zi Will Reciprocate” carried a negative connotation. In truth, it was mostly neutral.

“I do know that. Ya Zi will always repay the kindness shown to him. I respect you for that,” Jiang Feng said with a smile.

Ya Zi then said, “Boy, there is no need to flatter me. I know why you have come here. In order to gain the Second Stage of your Inheritance, you must pass my examination. This is the task that Donghuang had given me before he expired.”

Jiang Feng then asked, “What kind of test?”

Ya Zi then said, “The test is simple. Find the Primordial Divine Artifact, Lianyao Flask. The Lianyao Flask is immensely harmful toward the Shifters, but it is also hugely beneficial toward them. Only after receiving the Lianyao Flask will you have the right to receive the second stage of your inheritance.”

“Whew~” Jiang Feng heaved a heavy sigh of relief after he heard what Ya Zi had to say.

He thought that Donghuang Taiyi would leave behind a very difficult test for him. He did not realize that it would be so easy. That was because he had already obtained the Lianyao Flask.

But in truth, Jiang Feng was wrong. It was still very difficult to obtain the Lianyao Flask. It was easy for him because he had already obtained it earlier through luck.

If the quest was for him to find the Pangu Ax, then he would be in trouble. He only had one part of the Pangu Ax, he did not know where the other parts were.

Similarly, if it was not because he was lucky to have gathered all the parts of the Lianyao Flask, the quest would be very difficult for him.

“Do you mean this Lianyao Flask?” Jiang Feng took out the Lianyao Flask and put it in front of Ya Zi with a smile.

Ya Zi gave the Lianyao Flask in Jiang Feng’s hand a glance, and he was slightly surprised. He then looked at Jiang Feng with interest. “Well done. I did not expect that you would have such great fortune to receive the Lianyao Flask already. Looks like you might have a chance to form the Chaos Absolute Artifact.”

“Chaos Absolute Artifact?” Jiang Feng blinked, slightly confused.

Currently, the highest level equipment that was posted out officially were the Pre-Creation Absolute Artifacts. He did not see any mention of the Chaos Absolute Artifacts.

“There are very few Chaos Absolute Artifacts on the Divine Dominion Continent. There are six in total, and they have all transformed into Primordial Divine Artifacts. Gather all these Primordial Divine Artifacts then you would be able to form the Chaos Absolute Artifacts,” Ya Zi explained to him.

“They are more powerful than the Pre-Creation Absolute Artifacts?” Jiang Feng asked curiously.

“They are far more powerful than the Pre-Creation Absolute Artifacts!” Ya Zi said. It then continued, “You have passed my test. However, I do have another quest that I need to give to you. If you refuse, you will not be able to receive the Second Stage of your Inheritance.”

“What kind of quest?”

“Simple. Restore life on the Shifter Emperor Planet!”

…

‘Damn, simple?’

‘If this continues on, I would need to expend a lot of pp, even if I include the pp bound to the Nirvana Auction House. I don’t have enough on my own as it is.’

The difficulty of restoring life on the Shifter Emperor’s Planet was so difficult that he felt that it was hopeless.

Ding. System Prompt. Will you accept the quest, “Restore Life on the Shifter Emperor’s Planet?” Time limit of two years. If you refuse, you will not be able to receive the Second Stage of your inheritance.

“Accept!”

He had no choice but to accept the quest, and it was a quest with time limit.

Seeing that Jiang Feng had accepted the quest, Ya Zi plotted and said, “You have one last quest.”

Jiang Feng was speechless. “Another quest?”

Ya Zi nodded and said, “The last one is even simpler. See that stone tablet next to me? Shatter it, and your mission would be completed. I will then pass you your Inheritance when the time comes.”

Jiang Feng did not see any stone tablets when he arrived. But when he heard Ya Zi say that, he then looked not far from Ya Zi. Indeed, there was a stone tablet next to him.

And on it was written with a large font, “Shifter Emperor Donghuang.”

‘Hm? Something’s wrong!’

The other two missions were considered to be normal quests, but Jiang Feng felt that the last one was quite suspicious.

Not only was there no System Prompt, but when he looked toward the stone table, he could see from the corner of his eyes that Ya Zi’s eyes were filled with excitement and expectation. That meant that it really wanted Jiang Feng to break the stone tablet!
