Chapter 1644: It’s Over, We’re Dead
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
An Lin thought about the two disks.
One of them filled him with joy, while the other one made him quite uneasy.
There was no shaking this feeling. He had already correlated it with Daolord Lu Ya, so he couldn’t help but feel uneasy.
Setting the Starless Sky of Slaughter Formation Disk aside, An Lin was more interested in the Karma Star Protection Divine Disk.
After putting the Starless Sky of Slaughter Formation Disk into detention, he pulled out the Karma Star Protection Divine Disk before inspecting it with curious eyes.
This was a divine disk with an extremely beautiful outer appearance.
It was a pristine, white crystalline divine disk with flawless lines tracing the outlines of a clear, starry sky.
Blue specks of light danced upon the divine disc, as if they were telling countless stories.
“Can this disk predict one’s fortune? Let’s get it to predict our fortune,” Dongfang Zhuangshi proposed.
“A karma-type pinnacle divine tool’s divination should be very accurate,” Xu Xiaolan chimed in.
An Lin wanted to give it a try as well, so he immediately set the divine disk to work.
The blue light particles quickly swirled before materializing into a handsome young light man, a beautiful young light woman, an elderly man with flowing hair and beard, a young boy, a loli, and an infant, all of whom were about a dozen centimeters tall.
“This is the first time Master is using this divine tool, so please choose an artifact spirit,” an extremely mechanical, emotionless voice sounded.
An Lin was astonished. He could choose an artifact spirit? How advanced.
He looked at the beautiful young woman, and his hand strayed toward her almost involuntarily.
However, his hand suddenly faltered in mid-air as he glanced at the woman standing beside him out of the corner of his eyes. He then pointed toward the loli. “I choose that one!”
Choosing the young woman could earn him a beating from Xiaolan.
Hence, he could just choose the loli instead!
I’m so smart!
An Lin was delighted.
“Master has chosen little sister mode, now initiating divine tool…”
The mechanical voice sounded, and the figures constructed from light particles disappeared, leaving a loli with twin pigtails wearing a white dress and standing above the crystalline disk.
A pleasant, mellow voice sounded, “Master, I am your artifact spirit, Xiao Fu. What can I do for you?”
The loli raised her head and cupped her little fist as she stared up at An Lin with her large, bright eyes, presenting a very adorable scene to behold.
An Lin nodded with satisfaction.
This was the right choice!
Xu Xiaolan stared at the chuckling An Lin with bewilderment on her face, feeling as if he was a freak.
“Is your name Xiao Fu? What a great name! I like it.” An Lin smiled.
The loli smiled sweetly in response. “Master, the name Xiao Fu holds meaning as well. It signifies luck and fortune and can bring you good luck1.”
An Lin’s heart melted at the sight of such an adorable and polite loli, and he nodded with a content expression. “Alright, Little Sister Xiao Fu, can you use divination to predict my fortune?”
“Of course! Xiao Fu’s forte lies in divination, and I can guarantee a hundred percent accuracy!” Xiao Fu smiled as her tender little hands made a series of hand seals. The crystalline disk began to quickly revolve, and starlight shimmered as a peculiar ripple proliferated through nothingness and chaos.
Everyone felt like their bodies had been scanned.
Not only that, but they could feel a certain connection being established.
One minute later.
Loli Xiao Fu’s smile gradually disappeared.
An Lin was a little nervous. “What is it?”
“What’s the result of your divination?” Dongfang Zhuangshi was also quite curious.
Loli Xiao Fu heaved a forlorn sigh. “Sigh… I only just met a new master, and he’s about to go cold as well. How unfortunate…”
An Lin: “???”
Xu Xiaolan was astonished. “What do you mean by that?”
Loli Xiao Fu looked at An Lin with a sympathetic expression. “Enjoy the rest of your time in this world. I’m going to sleep now, bye bye…”
The little loli’s body dissipated into blue light particles right before everyone’s stunned eyes.
“This…” An Lin’s eyes widened as a sense of foreboding welled up in his heart.
A peculiar silence ensued.
“Xiao Fu seemed to have seen a bad future ahead for us…” Tina mused from her perch on An Lin’s shoulder.
“That’s a huge understatement!”
“Why did Xiao Fu look like she was in mourning already?”
An Lin clasped a hand over his chest and repressed the urge to throw up blood. “Wasn’t Xiao Fu supposed to bring us fortune and good luck? Why was she announcing our deaths instead?”
Xu Xiaolan thought to herself for a moment. “She said ‘I only just met a new master, and he’s about to go cold as well’. Why did this sound like she brought bad luck to all her masters instead?”
“Is that the point?” Dongfang Zhuangshi had chills running down his spine. “Isn’t the important part ‘enjoy the rest of your time in this world’? She’s hinting that we’re all going to die soon!”
Everyone erupted into panic upon hearing this.
“Could it be that she’s just pranking us?” Gluttony trembled.
“Impossible. Pinnacle divine tools don’t make jokes like this. We might be in a lot of trouble here, and this result was predicted by a karma-type divine tool, so no matter what we do, it will lead to our deaths…” Dongfang Zhuangshi spoke with a disconsolate expression.
“It’s very likely that we’ll encounter something on our way back…” Xu Xiaolan’s brows furrowed.
All of them immediately had an idea of what this something could be.
The Heavenly Human Tribe!
The representatives of the Heavenly Dao!
The only enemies on the Tai Chu Continent that could spell certain death for them was the Heavenly Human Tribe!
“Xiao Fu, Xiao Fu, do you know any way to survive this situation?” An Lin placed his hopes on the crystalline disk in his hand again.
Xiao Fu’s mellow voice sounded from within the crystalline disk, “It’s over, you’re all dead.”
An Lin: “…”
Everyone: “…”
F*ck off!
He had just obtained a pinnacle divine tool, but it couldn’t do anything aside from telling its master that he was screwed? Was this a fake divine tool?!
“We must have attracted some extremely terrifying enemies during the course of our battle earlier. There could very possibly be an enemy ambush waiting for us on the way back,” An Lin said in a grave voice.
“What do we do now?” Xu Xiaolan’s brows were tightly furrowed. “Should we go around the Opposite Shore Realm?”
“We’re most likely already under the surveillance of our enemies, so it won’t matter which direction we escape in…” An Lin pulled out his voice transmission talisman to try and call for reinforcements, only to find that there was no signal, as if some sort of signal-jamming power had encompassed heaven and earth.
Just as everyone was at a loss for what to do, the space ahead of them was suddenly sealed!
An Lin, Xu Xiaolan, Tina, Dongfang Zhuangshi, and Gluttony were forced out of their spatial travel!
