Chapter 364 Throne Artifact Spirit
Ping!
[Refining Speed has decreased.]
Liu Feng knew why, but he couldn't help it.
This was his mother that they were talking about after all. He really wanted to know more about her. Even though he didn't have any contact with his father as his father, he felt like his mother was with him for some reason.
He wanted to know more about her, just like he wanted to know more about his father. They were mysteries in this body's life that he just needed to uncover, or they would remain as regrets that he couldn't get through.
"So you are related to her. It has been a few years since I talked to her. It is a pity that she didnt become the queen though. It would have been nice if she became the holder of the artifact." The artifact spirit sighed.
"What did you know about her?" Liu Feng asked haggardly. His desperation was quite apparent in his tone.
"Looks like you were quite the admirer of her. But I don't know what you want to know, boy. She was just a child when she first sat on her father's lap as he was on the throne. And I knew that her blood was special. She was someone who could truly use the throne here to its true power. No one wants to be underutilized." The artifact spirit said.
"There are more features than the Terracotta Army? Features that are not being used?" Liu Feng asked, surprised.
"Of course. Did you think that something that descended from the Ancient Realm would be so weak as to only have a few Soul Evolution Stage cultivators? Don't be stupid. The throne can command a lot more power. I was the corner stone for a dynasty boy!" The artifact spirit scoffed.
"Then what caused you to such dire status? How about this. After I refine you, I will let your power be used to the fullest. Deal? Stop resisting my refining and we can do this." Liu Feng proposed.
"Get lost. Do you know how many kings of your blood have promised this? None of them are strong enough to last my power. And they dare to call it the Curse of the King. Such fools. All it is, is that they are a bunch of incapable fools." The artifact spirit scoffed.
"It looks like you are too underutilized." Liu Feng smiled as a thought appeared in his mind.
"What if I do this? What if I promise to use your full power once, but in the future?" Liu Feng asked.
"What are you talking about?"
"I am going to go to the Ancient Realm the moment that the portal opens. Unfortunately, I don't think that I can take you away. I want an artifact as strong as you all to myself, but I cannot just take it away. Too many people will stop me. But there is a battle coming here. If you want, you can help me. Or else, you can forcefully be refined." Liu Feng said.
There was no doubt that at the end of the refining process, the system would do exactly as promised. It would give him the throne as a refined artifact, that was his to use.
And it would also give him the three minor realms in increase. All of this would combine to give him a wonderful power that would make him as strong as any other in the Realm of beginnings, where the limit was the peak of the Soul Evolution Stage.
"You are so haughty, boy. Do you really think that you can go to the Ancient realm and see yourself come back here?" The artifact spirit laughed.
"You came back. My father managed to come here. Why wouldn't I?" Liu Feng chuckled.
"What? Your father is from the ancient realm? And he managed to come to the Realm of Beginnings? Don't tell me, oh wait. I should have recognized that smell. The smell of the Ancient Blood. A bloodline that I should have recognized. It wasn't activated so I couldn't recognize it immediately!" The artifact spirit suddenly shouted with shock and realization.
"Fine. I will take you upon this deal. I will let you refine me. And when you come back in the future, I will want you to use my power to the extreme." The artifact spirit said.
Jake smiled as he gripped the sides of the throne as he sent torrents of Qi into the throne. And this time, he could feel the resistance of the throne becoming non existent.
Ping!
[Speed of refining artifact increased drastically!]
[New time of refinement: 10 Hours]
Liu Feng raised his eyebrows. This was surprising. It had halved the time just by helping out. Talking to the artifact really was a good thing.
But he had to finish this fast. Even though he technically couldn't do anything, and this was the maximum output that was possible, he wanted to finish this as fast as possible.
Outside, too many people were gunning for this very throne.
The powers that Cai Guo had told him returned to the top of his mind. Clans that had secluded themselves. Mysterious men who wanted this power all to themselves. The Handu Kingdom. Every other kingdom.
But there was one quiet power in all of this that made Liu Feng shiver with anticipation. He really wanted to meet with Long Xian again.
Time and time again, he thought back to the day that he was held by Long Xian, by the throat, and ridiculed for his strength.
He was weak back then. He couldn't fight back. The only thing that he could do to survive and stall was beg the system for a way to get to the tribulation.
Thinking back, it was shameful. And he wanted to get back at him.
Now, as long as he finished refining the throne, he would become the king, and he would finally enter the Peak of the Soul Evolution Stage.
He would become the peak of the entire world in cultivation.
