Chapter 1174 Final piece
In the middle of a cave, there was a pedestal with something on it.
Lin Fan was at the side of the cave, looking at the thing on the pedestal with narrowed eyes.
After a long silence, he said with a sigh, "This is the final one…it's been a long time."
As soon as his voice fell, the three behind him all gave sighs.
They could only agree with him since it had indeed been a long time since they had started this journey.
They could still remember it as if it were yesterday.
When they had set out, they had just taken care of the Outers invading their universe and now it had been several years later.
They had gone to many different universes during this time thanks to all of the special cultivation realms that the system had prepared for them. They had to slowly grind through each one of those universes, looking for what the system had wanted them to find.
Each universe's goal had been the same in the end.
It was what was currently on the pedestal as well.
It was a bunch of golden bones.
During their travels to different universes, Lin Fan's entire skeleton had been slowly replaced by the golden bones.
There was only a single bone left that hadn't been replaced by the golden bones.
This was the toe bone that was on this pedestal.
At first, Angela and the others had been worried about Lin Fan's bones being replaced by these golden bones, but eventually they became used to it. Or it could be said that they had become numb to it.
Since Lin Fan never changed a bit after having his bones replaced by these golden bones, they just assumed that he would never change.
They assumed that it was safe because it was who they thought was the master of the store, as well as Lin Fan's master that sent them to retrieve them.
If that person wanted to hurt Lin Fan or take over his body, there had already been countless chances that he could have taken. If he really wanted to do this, he wouldn't have taken that long.
So they just assumed that the way that Lin Fan talked to the master of the store was just his normal way of talking to him.
After taking a deep breath, Lin Fan suddenly walked forward towards the pedestal in the middle of the cave.
The other three just watched silently as he did this.
When he came closer to it, Lin Fan could feel the attraction that was coming from inside of him towards that bone on the pedestal.
It was as if every bone in his body wanted to bring that golden toe bone into him.
But then again, every bone in his body had been replaced by the golden bones, so it wasn't strange if it was attracted to that toe bone.
However, before he could reach it, there was a screech that filled the air.
When he turned in the direction that this screech came from, he found that there was this strange creature there that released this screech.
This creature looked human, but it was completely covered in bones.
These were bones that didn't seem human at all, but they had been brought together to form some kind of bone armour around this creature. It seemed like it was wearing the bones of its prey.
This strange creature immediately released its hostility on Lin Fan after seeing Lin Fan heading towards the pedestal in the center.
This creature was the owner of this cave and the owner of the toe bone in the center.
So when it saw Lin Fan heading towards its possession, it naturally showed its hostility towards him.
But this creature was anything but weak.
The aura of this creature showed that it was in the God Realm and it wasn't a weak God Realm Expert.
Then again, if it was weak, it wouldn't have been able to claim this toe bone or the cave that it currently lived in.
This cave had an intense concentration of life energy, so strong that only those in the Ruler Realm would be able to move freely.
If anyone else came in here, they would be crushed by the intensity of the life energy in this cave.
So this cave was not a simple one.
Lin Fan didn't feel pressured at all after the hostility of this creature fell onto him. He just looked at the creature with a relaxed look, as if he was waiting to see what this creature would do.
The creature revealed a very surprised look when it saw this.
Normally when it released its aura like this, the other side would run away or at least try to appease it.
But this strange being was completely relaxed when feeling its aura.
This was the first time that this creature had experienced this.
This creature made some more strange sounds which Lin Fan didn't understand, but based on the tone and the context, it was most likely trying to get Lin Fan to move away from the toe bone.
But…Lin Fan didn't listen to this creature and turned back to face the pedestal.
Then in front of this creature, he started moving towards the pedestal again.
The creature revealed an ugly expression when it saw this and it let out an angry screech before suddenly springing out.
There were different sharp bone lances that suddenly appeared in the air around Lin Fan before falling down towards them.
The pressure that each of these bone lances gave off was immense.
It definitely wasn't something that Angela and the others could resist.
But Lin Fan just calmly raised his hand and black holes appeared around him.
They appeared in front of all the bone lances that appeared.
When the bone lances made contact with the black holes, they immediately started being absorbed by these black holes.
In a matter of a few seconds, the bone lances had disappeared without a trace.
The creature was shocked to see this.
Lin Fan finally made his way over to the pedestal and the toe bone suddenly reacted.
It trembled before floating up in the air.
After floating there for a bit, the toe bone suddenly flew out at Lin Fan like all the other golden bones had done before.
The creature didn't know what was happening, but it knew that it couldn't let this toe bone go with Lin Fan. So the creature was about to make a move until it suddenly felt a strong pressure fall onto it.
This was a pressure that it had never felt before and it was a pressure that it couldn't resist.
The toe bone disappeared with a spurt of blood and some white bone falling to the ground.
When the creature saw the toe bone disappear like this, it couldn't help revealing a complicated look.
This creature had a bone based law, so it absorbed bones and wore them like this to increase its power.
It had also tried absorbing that toe bone before, but it hadn't been able to in the end.
There was this immense power inside of the toe bone that it hadn't been able to control.
If it hadn't given up, it might have even been killed by the immense power inside of the toe bone.
So that was why the creature had enshrined it on this pedestal in the first place.
It had hoped that it would be able to use this toe bone one day, but before it could…this toe bone was being stolen by Lin Fan.
After that last toe bone entered him, Lin Fan couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed. After all, he had expected something big to happen after he obtained this last piece of the puzzle.
However, nothing happened in the end.
Feeling disappointed, Lin Fan turned to face the creature.
He could see the creature struggling, so he decided to point his hand at the creature.
Then there was a beam of light that suddenly came out of Lin Fan's hand and hit the creature in the chest.
As soon as it did, there was this draining sensation that filled the creature.
It didn't take long before the bones that it was wearing fell to the ground revealing its true appearance.
It was an albino young woman who had pale white skin.
She would have been considered beautiful if it wasn't the mud and dirt caked onto her skin and hair.
But with it, all she looked was messy.
Lin Fan felt a chill when he saw this naked woman in front of him and he knew who it was coming from.
So he quickly turned his head away and moved back over to them.
Since they had accomplished their goal, there was no need for them to stay here any longer, so he said, "Shall we go?"
Angela gave a snort when she heard this, but Momonga just said with a bitter smile, "Let's head back then."
With a nod, there was a white flash of light that appeared.
Even though Lin Fan had already absorbed two sets of spatial laws from different universes, he still wasn't able to see through the laws that the system used to teleport them.
Just where did the spatial law for this come from?
When the flash of white light disappeared, Lin Fan and the others were back in the store.
However, they weren't alone this time.
There was the golden version of Lin Fan who was standing there, almost as if he was waiting for them to come back.
