4243 The Fragment of a Prime Divine Artifact
When Duan Ling Tian looked up, he saw the others looking at the metal fragment covetously.
At the same time, Hou Lian Yu hurriedly said through Voice Transmission, “Big Brother Duan, hurry up and put the fragment of the prime divine artifact away! Although I don’t think they have the courage to snatch it from you, it’s better to be safe than sorry. What if one of them snatches it first and puts it into his or her destructive spatial ring? At that time, you won’t be able to retrieve it even if you kill them.”
Upon hearing Hou Lian Yu’s words, Duan Ling Tian hurriedly claimed the metal fragment and put it away in his spatial ring. He could also sense half of the force from the law of space disappearing when he grabbed the metal fragment.
‘The fragment of the prime divine artifact is terrifying as it is… I wonder how terrifying a prime divine artifact is…’
Duan Ling Tian knew that only supreme powerhouses could cultivate a prominent divine artifact into a prime divine artifact after keeping a prominent divine artifact by his or her side for many, many years. Needless to say, prime divine artifacts were far superior to prominent divine artifacts. Even without an artifact soul, a prime divine artifact could easily destroy a prominent divine artifact with a complete artifact soul. As such, prime divine artifacts were acknowledged to be the strongest divine weapons in heaven and earth. Under normal circumstances, only supreme powerhouses owned prime divine artifacts. However, there was a small number of advanced Supreme Gods who also possessed prime divine artifacts due to their close connections with a supreme powerhouse. With a prime divine artifact in hand, there was no doubt this small number of advanced Supreme Gods were the strongest among advanced Supreme Gods.
After Duan Ling Tian put the fragment of the prime divine artifact away, Hou Lian Yu said again, “Big Brother Duan, prime divine artifacts can only be cultivated by supreme powerhouses…”
Hou Lian Yu assumed Duan Ling Tian was unaware of how precious the fragment of the prime divine artifact was based on Duan Ling Tian’s reaction so he was quick to explain it to Duan Ling Tian.
“Not only is a prime divine artifact difficult to cultivate, but it also takes a long time to cultivate. For this reason, some supreme powerhouse chooses to cultivate a prime divine artifact using something else other than a prominent divine artifact. Only a peerless material can become a fragment of a prime divine artifact. If I’m not mistaken, that metal fragment you obtained is the Colossal Dark Matter. It’s one of the most precious materials used to forge weapons between heaven and earth. You can use the fragment of a prime divine artifact to cultivate your prominent divine artifact with a complete artifact soul. Once your prominent divine artifact accumulates enough energy from nine fragments, it’ll become a prime divine artifact. As you can see, compared to the conventional method, it’s much faster to cultivate a prime divine artifact this way.”
“The supreme powerhouses would scatter and hide fragments of prime divine artifacts on the Realm Battlefield, using them as rewards. According to the rumors, prime divine artifacts once appeared on the Realm Battlefield as a reward a long, long time ago. However, due to the difficulty of cultivating prime divine artifacts, the supreme powerhouses later changed the rewards to fragments of prime divine artifacts. In any case, the fragment of a prime divine artifact is regarded as a peerless treasure on the Realm Battlefield that even advanced Supreme Gods would fight over.”
Duan Ling Tian had a better understanding after listening to Hou Lian Yu’s explanation. Then, he brought the fragment of the prime divine artifact out before he summoned Huang’er, the artifact soul of the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword.
“Huang’er, how do I integrate this fragment of a prime divine artifact into the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword?”
Huang’er could barely contain her excitement as she asked, “M-master, you want to integrate the fragment into the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword?”
Needless to say, the integration of the fragment of the prime divine artifact into the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword would benefit Huang’er, its soul, tremendously. Moreover, if Duan Ling Tian managed to obtain nine fragments and integrate them with the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, the sword would turn into a prime divine artifact. At that time, as long as Duan Ling Tian was willing, Huang’er would become independent like humans. She would possess a lower cultivation base than the master of the divine artifact, but she could slowly raise her cultivation base. For example, if her master was a supreme powerhouse, she would only possess the cultivation base of an intermediate Supreme God. To become an advanced Supreme God, she would have to rely on her own strength. Even after gaining independence, it would not affect the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword. After all, prime divine artifacts, unlike prominent divine artifacts, were not reliant on the powers of artifact souls. That was why prime divine artifacts were also known as divine weapons in their most basic form.
