Chapter 525 One shouldn't be too greedy.
However, the moment Lin Hanzhou's gaze fell upon the crystal, he even felt that the laws of space around him were undergoing extremely strange distortion and refraction!
It's as if this tiny stone is a miniature black hole capable of swallowing all light and perception!
"This is the purest and most primordial essence of space!"
Lin Hanzhou carefully reached out and used the Great Emperor's Law to wrap the [Void Origin Crystal] in his hand.
The moment he made contact, a vast and boundless spatial law, as profound as the endless starry sky, surged into his mind through his palm!
"hiss--"
Even someone as powerful as Lin Hanzhou couldn't help but gasp in shock under the impact of this immense force of law.
This thing is also extremely useful to him personally!
This is an exceptional natural treasure for comprehending the laws of space.
Lin Hanzhou took out a jade box and carefully placed the fist-sized Void Origin Crystal inside. He then placed several Great Emperor Sealing Arrays on the box before confidently storing it in the deepest part of his inner world.
After collecting the biggest spoils of war.
Lin Hanzhou then came to his senses and prepared to continue scavenging other materials from the enormous corpse.
"Bones, essence blood, and those unbroken internal organs... these are all excellent raw materials for refining imperial weapons and supreme elixirs!"
Lin Hanzhou summoned the Imperial Weapon [Thunder Tribulation], preparing for a major battle.
However, when he actually took action and swung his sword to cut off one of the giant beast's seemingly perfectly intact ribs...
"Click—"
A crisp, even slightly brittle, cracking sound rang out.
The giant beast's rib, which should have been as hard as immortal gold, was cut in two like a withered piece of rotten wood by Lin Hanzhou's sword energy, which he hadn't even used his full strength for!
At the break, there was no flickering of spatial Dao patterns, no flow of chaotic blood energy, and not even a trace of spiritual energy.
The bone marrow inside had long since turned into a pile of gray powder!
"What...what's going on?!"
Lin Hanzhou's smile froze instantly.
Unconvinced, he cut open another large chunk of the giant beast's flesh, only to find that the black blood that should have contained immense life force had now completely turned into a muddy, energyless waste liquid.
That enormous flesh and blood had completely lost its elasticity and vitality, becoming ashen and lifeless.
Lin Hanzhou frowned and examined it carefully for a long time.
Ultimately, he came to an extremely helpless, yet reasonable, conclusion.
"I see……"
Lin Hanzhou sighed with a wry smile.
The Void Origin Crystal is the ultimate concentration of the Dao Fruit and origin of this giant beast's entire life.
The moment it condensed this crystal before its death, all the spirituality and essence in its bones, flesh, and meridians were completely drained by this crystal.
This seemingly enormous corpse was actually an empty shell, drained of all its value!
Fortunately, it seems that the Chaos Scales on the giant beast's body are special, which in itself prevents some of the energy from leaking out.
Therefore, only these scales retained their previous toughness and Dao patterns, without losing their spirituality due to the condensation of the source crystal.
"Well, one shouldn't be too greedy. Having a ninth-tier Void Source Crystal is already the biggest gain on this journey to immortality."
Lin Hanzhou quickly adjusted his mindset.
He ignored the bones and flesh that had become waste, and instead transformed into a stream of light, moving swiftly across the surface of the enormous corpse.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!"
Sword energy crisscrossed.
Lin Hanzhou swiftly peeled off all the well-preserved Chaos Scales from the Void Beast.
Each of these scales is the size of a small mountain, as black as ink, and shimmers with natural defensive patterns.
Lin Hanzhou collected thousands of such intact scales before finally stopping, satisfied.
After doing all this.
Lin Hanzhou took one last look at the huge, empty shell that floated like space debris, and then felt no more attachment.
He slowly turned around, his deep gaze fixed on the deepest part of this broken void abyss.
That is the end of this broken path to immortality.
Faintly, a strange aura, not belonging to this universe, was slowly seeping in from the end of that darkness.
The Void Beast is dead, and the Great Accomplished Holy Body and the Overlord Body have been banished.
Now, on this path to immortality, nothing can stop this great emperor's progress.
"boom!"
As Lin Hanzhou took a step forward, the laws of time paved a silver road in the void.
Dressed in black with his hands behind his back, he was like a peerless divine sword piercing the darkness, facing the unknown end without hesitation, continuing to move forward alone and firmly in the ruins of the broken immortal path!
Lin Hanzhou wandered alone through the lifeless ruins of the immortal path for an entire day.
Even he, the most powerful emperor of his time with profound knowledge and experience, felt a long-lost sense of fatigue.
The continuous output of the power of the laws, like peeling away layers of an onion, caused a very subtle sense of emptiness in his soul and blood.
"I need to find a place to rest and recuperate a bit. In this godforsaken place, I need to maintain my peak condition at all times."
Lin Hanzhou was secretly making plans in his mind.
Just as he calmed his mind and prepared to spread his divine sense to find a relatively stable remnant of the immortal path as a temporary foothold.
Tens of thousands of miles ahead, the remains of a floating island, as large as a miniature continent, slowly came into his view.
On this wreckage, countless giant stone pillars carved from unknown divine jade have collapsed, and some broken array hubs are still suspended in mid-air. It can be vaguely seen that this place once seemed to be an extremely vast welcoming plaza.
However, what truly made Lin Hanzhou stop was not the grandeur of the ruins, but the three figures standing in the central plaza of the ruins.
In this absolutely silent abyss where even microorganisms cannot survive, suddenly seeing a "person" is definitely not something to be happy about; on the contrary, it is a terrifying event that instantly sends chills down your spine!
Lin Hanzhou could see the three figures clearly through the tens of thousands of miles of void.
Those were three "people" of different shapes.
They wore extremely old clothes, some of which had become rotten and tattered due to the erosion of time.
Lin Hanzhou could not feel even the slightest bit of warmth or life force from them, nor could he hear any heartbeat or breathing.
However, their bodies exuded an extremely heavy and terrifying imperial aura!
"The Corpse of the Spirit Emperor".
Lin Hanzhou recognized the origin of these three items at a glance. His brows furrowed slightly, a rare occurrence for him.
"How can there be so many spirit emperor corpses?"
