Chapter 223 New Mission



"Another fragment?!" Lin Jingge exclaimed in surprise.

She quickly remembered the golden light she had seen under the Bloodthirsty Demon Vine.

This left her no choice but to think about it.

[Yes, the other piece. There are some extra things on the Heavenly Book. This fragment is part of the Heavenly Book. When you touched the roots of the Bloodthirsty Demon Vine, the Heavenly Book guided me there. Before I could even react, the Heavenly Book had already merged with that fragment.]

Xiao Shi described it vividly.

"Could it be that Chu Wang went there because of this fragment?" Lin Jingge murmured.

But then he thought about it again and realized something was wrong. He quickly asked Xiaoshi in his mind, "That's not right. According to what you said, only the Heavenly Book can fuse with the fragments. Others who have these fragments can't use them."

[Who says they can't use this fragment of the Heavenly Book! After finding the fragment here, the Bloodthirsty Demon Vine attempted to fuse with it. However, Heavenly Book artifacts and things from the Demon Realm are incompatible, which is why the Bloodthirsty Demon Vine had to use the flesh and blood of the villagers to fuse the fragment. If it were anyone else, fusing the fragment would only be a matter of time.]

"Then, what's the use of the fragments?" Lin Jingge swallowed hard and suddenly asked.

The fragments that even the Bloodthirsty Demon Vine was willing to damage itself to fuse with must not be so simple.

[This fragment can reveal a person's destiny. If one's cultivation level is high enough, they can even draw upon the fortune of the entire world to aid their cultivation, making it only a matter of time before they break through to the next level.]

Xiao Shi explained.

The Heavenly Book has now merged with it, and it can recall its contents with just a thought.

After hearing Xiao Shi's explanation, Lin Jingge was greatly shocked.

According to Xiaoshi, wouldn't possessing this fragment mean one could freely manipulate the fate of this world?!

No wonder the Bloodthirsty Demon Vine was willing to risk its life to obtain such a heaven-defying treasure.

However, this fragment was fused with the Heavenly Book. Although the Heavenly Book was with Xiao Shi, Lin Jingge did not feel any difference.

With a thought, she quickly closed her eyes and began to cultivate.

After a while, she opened her eyes.

A look of disappointment crossed his face.

Not only did she not experience any extraordinary luck, but even during her cultivation, the amount of spiritual energy she could absorb per second did not increase.

She told Xiaoshi about her doubts.

Logically speaking, since Xiaoshi and she are one, she should also be able to sense the effects of the Heavenly Book.

[I don't know what's going on either, but I always feel that the Heavenly Book has its own consciousness. Maybe we'll know the reason after we've repaired it.]

Xiao Shi licked its paws, hopped onto Lin Jingge's shoulder, and rubbed against her.

It wanted to help Lin Jingge, but its presence could only help with some research most of the time, and it couldn't do anything else.

After the Heavenly Book merged with this fragment, Xiao Shi realized just how powerful the Heavenly Book was. However, despite its incredible power, he could only look at it and couldn't use it.

Just thinking about it makes me feel extremely uncomfortable.

Lin Jingge sighed and smiled as she picked up Xiao Shi, who was rubbing against her neck.

"Alright, alright, it's nothing. You've already helped me a lot by telling me so much." Lin Jingge soothed Xiao Shi.

Xiao Shi also meowed obediently a few times.

After that, Lin Jingge closed her eyes and began to cultivate.

Xiao Shi obtained the spirit stone and returned to his spatial dimension.

Recently, Tang Cheng has been facing an assessment in the field of alchemy, while Lin Jingge, who has recovered her health, has taken on another mission to go outside.

This mission is neither simple nor particularly difficult.

It's a task involving items.

Ice Red Fruit is a fruit that only appears in the ice fields.

Lin Jingge has now arrived at a small town outside the ice field.

She stayed at an inn in town. When she woke up early in the morning, she opened the window and could see a vast expanse of white in front of her.

According to the innkeeper, this ice field has been formed for thousands of years, and the ice formed inside is so cold that it chills you to the bone.

Even if they can use spiritual power to warm themselves, they still need to prepare a lot of things to keep warm.

Everyone here is wearing thick clothes.

If you happen to see someone shirtless here.

That person must be at least at the Spirit King realm; no one dares to provoke them.

Lin Jingge was also dressed very warmly at this moment.

She made many preparations for entering the ice field.

When we reached the entrance to the ice field, we saw many people who were planning to enter in groups.

Just as she was about to lower her head and leave quickly, she saw someone walking towards her.

Looking at the person blocking her way, Lin Jingge frowned slightly: "Does Your Excellency have something to say?"

She looked up and sized him up.

The person in front of her was dressed very warmly, just like her. The only difference was that she was wearing a face mask to keep warm, while the other person wasn't.

The man seemed to have been standing there for quite some time; the howling wind had made his wheat-colored face appear somewhat red and purple.

"I just want to team up with you and go into this icy plain together," the middle-aged man said.

The hot air exhaled turned into white mist.

"Sharing a meal?" Lin Jingge frowned. "Sorry, I have no intention of sharing a meal. You should find someone else."

"Wait..." Seeing Lin Jingge about to leave, the middle-aged man quickly stepped aside and blocked her way again.

“I know this request is too much to ask, but here, you are the only one whose level is about the same as mine.”

"I'm sorry..." Lin Jingge refused right away.

She never intended to share a meal with someone in the first place.

She still has a lingering fear of being paired up with someone last time.

Moreover, she was simply out on a mission this time, planning to find the Ice Red Fruit and leave, and didn't intend to stay in the Ice Plains any longer.

To be honest, Lin Jingge disliked this illusion very much; it was a frozen wasteland that made people shiver.

In such a situation, people's alertness will also decrease significantly.

"No, why don't you join me?" the middle-aged man said.

He finally met the right person, so he wasn't going to let her go so easily.

"I have no sense of direction. This place is all white and frozen. Once I go in, I won't be able to find my way out," the middle-aged man began to explain his predicament.

"How about this, once we're inside, everything else we find is yours, I only need one ice sable." After saying that, fearing Lin Jingge might not agree, he added, "Don't be fooled by how quiet this ice plain is. Look at everyone else, they all go in teams. There are quite a few high-level demonic beasts hiding in this ice plain, so having more people will be more helpful."

The man then recounted all the benefits of teaming up with him, confident that Lin Jingge would agree.

To be honest, after he said that, Lin Jingge was actually a little tempted.

However……

"Sorry, I want to be alone."

Lin Jingge is quite patient.

Being alone in a foreign land, it was not advisable to make enemies, so Lin Jingge listened to the other party finish speaking before replying.

Having said that, fearing the man might say something else, Lin Jingge took advantage of his inattention and rushed into the icy plain.
