Cultivation Pet Shop

406 Chapter 406

This seed was naturally a seed that came from Brainy, but it wasn't just a normal seed.

After Brainy had undergone its second mutation, it had gained more skills compared to before. One of which was the ability to augment the seeds that it generated.

The seeds that Brainy created were no longer just parasite seeds, but there were also seeds with various different effects.

Take the seed that Lin Fan was currently holding, it was an Explosion Seed.

As the name suggests, after this seed was swallowed, with just a single bit of spiritual sense injected from Brainy, it would create an explosion. However, it was different from the previous parasite seeds because the explosion generated from this Explosion Seed was several hundred times stronger.

That was because this seed had a gigantic amount of life energy compressed into its tiny shape, which gave it much more power than the normal parasite seeds.

With Brainy's current cultivation of the Primary Soul Realm, the explosion of the seed was actually strong enough to penetrate the defenses of someone in the Embryo Soul Realm.

Of course, it took a long time to create even a single one of these seeds, so they were not things that Brainy used normally or even created. They would only be used when Lin Fan had a need for them, such as making sure that someone he was working with wouldn't betray him.

Mo Ze Chen sent his spiritual sense into the seed and he could tell that there was a powerful concentration of life energy inside this seed. Even he wasn't certain if he could withstand an attack of that concentration, not to mention if it was inside of him.

But there was no other choice for Mo Ze Chen right now…

In the end, Mo Ze Chen gave a sigh as he took the seed and swallowed it.

He could feel it traveling through him until it reached his head, resting just under his brain.

He could tell that with a single thought, this seed would detonate and would kill him, even eliminating his soul with the laws that were contained within.

That would mean true death for him, not just the death of his body.

Still, he had no other choice right now.

After swallowing this seed, Mo Ze Chen asked, "Will this do?"

Lin Fan confirmed with Brainy that Mo Ze Chen did indeed swallow the seed before saying, "What is your plan for doing this then?"

Mo Ze Chen revealed a smile and gave a shrug before saying, "It's very simple, I never had a plan to begin with."

Lin Fan had dark lines that appeared on his face as he realized that he had overestimated this Mo Ze Chen.

He believed Mo Ze Chen when he said that he didn't have any plans at all because he could tell by the way Mo Ze Chen relaxed after eating the seed that it seemed like he had accomplished his goals. He only wanted to find a way to grab onto Lin Fan's leg and as for everything else, he would leave it to his new boss.

But Lin Fan had to admit that Mo Ze Chen was quite good at acting and making quick decisions, which meant that he was someone who had a good head on his shoulders. At least this meant that he could be trained and help Lin Fan's other subordinates when they came up.

Lin Fan had already started treating Mo Ze Chen as a subordinate since he had gotten him to eat the seed.

Since he was willing to hug Lin Fan's leg, he wouldn't say no.

Not to mention that Mo Ze Chen seemed to have this special ability to find artifacts, that was always useful.

The one thing that Lin Fan's organization back on the Blue Star Planet lacked were pills and artifacts. That was because most of the people that he had managed to recruit were those that had fighting potential or those that were good at business. He had never been able to recruit any alchemists or blacksmiths because his organization had been focused on other kinds of development, so that was a weak point for them.

He would have to start patching up those weak points now that they had developed to a certain extent and someone like this Mo Ze Chen would be a good start. Now all Lin Fan had to do was find a good alchemist and that would solve the holes they have right now.

Seeing that Lin Fan wasn't saying a thing, Mo Ze Chen wasn't actually worried because he saw that Lin Fan didn't seemed worried. If Lin Fan was worried, maybe he would be worried, but he could tell that his new boss was a smart person and was developing a plan, so he silently waited.

After thinking for a bit, Lin Fan finally said, "Let's keep exploring these ruins then."

Mo Ze Chen was taken aback when he heard this. After all this time, the only plan that Lin Fan had managed to come up with was to continue exploring?

Even he could have come up with that kind of plan.

But as he thought about it, he realized that Lin Fan was right.

Instead of going around searching for the Nascent Soul Realm beast, running into all kinds of unknown traps, it was better to move forward and try to find what the Nascent Soul Realm beast was trying to protect.

That way, they would draw in the Nascent Soul Realm beast, while also being able to know the terrain of the area they would fight in. If they knew the terrain since they would already be exploring it, at least that would mean that they wouldn't have to deal with the various traps.

Mo Ze Chen was about to say something, but then he noticed that Lin Fan was already moving forward without him.

He gave a bitter laugh as he thought that he had chosen to follow a selfish fellow, but then he followed behind Lin Fan.

When they came out of the corridor that they had been in, they arrived in a room that was brightly lit, but unlike before, the room wasn't lit by the torches on the wall. Instead of being lit by torches, right in the center of the room was a tree that glowing with light.

It wasn't a big tree since this wasn't a big room, it only reached a height of three meters, but the light it gave off was almost too bright to look directly at.

When they came into the room, the first thing Mo Ze Chen did was immediately run up to the tree and start climbing onto it, trying to find why it was glowing.

That was the one special thing about Mo Ze Chen, he was completely obsessed with things that went against normal convention. In short, he was an occult maniac, which was why he was aiming to become a Ruins Hunter just like their examiner Shi Yan.

But because of how much it went into exploring ruins, he was constantly getting into and getting out of debt, which was what led him to become a Hunter.

He didn't want to give up his goal, which was why he came up with the idea of grabbing onto the leg of someone powerful like Lin Fan.

In the future, he would come to regret this decision, but for now, he was happy with the results.

Lin Fan slowly walked into the room after being in a daze for a bit. He came up to the glowing tree and in front of that glowing tree, there was a podium with an inscription on it.

But Lin Fan didn't immediately look at the inscription, rather he turned to the tree since it seemed like it might be something valuable.

Both him and Brainy sent their spiritual sense into the tree and it didn't take them long for them to determine why this tree was glowing.

It was very simple, it was just an injection of light laws into the normal tree that was planted here, but there was something strange about it.

Normal light laws wouldn't have lasted this long since they could tell that this tree was over ten thousand years old. For light laws to last this long, it far surpassed the highest cultivation realm in this upper realm.

Just who had left these ruins here?

Lin Fan immediately turned his attention to the podium with the inscription after determining this, but he found that the inscription didn't make much sense either.

The inscription was very simple, it was a few simple lines describing something that Lin Fan couldn't understand.

"The outsider will arrive to change this world and when he arrives, the light will guide his way."

"For all those lost in the light, your salvation will be this outsider."

"The outsider who will become the king of all beasts."

"One day he will have to lose everything."

This didn't make any sense to Lin Fan, but this was the only clue that he got since there wasn't a way forward in this room.

They didn't notice this when they first came in because they were distracted by the glowing tree, but it turned out that there wasn't another passage for them to continue through in this room.

But that would be strange since this was the only room that led further down into the ruins…Or could it be that this was already the bottom?

Lin Fan didn't believe so since he could feel something from beneath them, so he continued to look over the podium.

After carefully looking at it, he found that there was another inscription underneath the one that he had already read. He had missed it at first because it was very faint and the room was so bright.

However, when he did see it, he couldn't help being surprised by it.

After all, it was written in Chinese.
