Chapter 645 Ancient World (11)



This time, there was no hesitation in Lin Fan’s voice as he stared right back at the black ball of light and said, “That depends on your next words.”

The black ball of light once again fell silent as it just floated there, as if it was thinking about something.

Then without any hesitation it said with a sigh, “Then do you want the truth?”

Lin Fan was caught off guard since he never thought that the black ball of light would be this direct with him. He was certain that the black ball of light would make some excuse or even threaten him, he just never expected it to acknowledge it that easily.

But after a moment of being stunned, he said, “How much are you willing to tell me?”

The black ball of light gave another sigh before replying with a question, “How much are you willing to trust me?”

Lin Fan couldn’t answer this because he knew that he couldn’t trust the black ball of light no matter what kind of answer that it gave him.

The black ball of light shook its head again before saying, “They did come looking for me, but that isn’t all of it.”

Lin Fan knitted his brows and waited for the black ball of light to explain.

The black ball of light took another pause before saying, “They might have come for me, but this planet was on the list of planets that was going to be invaded eventually, so it wouldn’t have mattered in the end.”

Lin Fan looked at the black ball of light for a bit before finally giving a nod in response to this.

He knew that this wasn’t the full story, but he also needed this black ball of light right now, so there was no point in forcing it to show its hands.

There was still plenty of time for him to slowly peel back all the layers of this onion, there was no rush for him.

Seeing Lin Fan nodding in response to his answer, the black ball of light didn’t show anything on the surface, but deep down it let out a sigh of relief.

Even though it had seemed calm just now, it had been actually very worried after Lin Fan had started asking all those questions.

The black ball of light was actually at the end of its ropes and there wasn’t much option left for it. That was the reason why it had expended a part of its soul to create that barrier of death law to protect Lin Fan with.

Otherwise, with the current state that it was in, there was no way for it to release that kind of power.

In fact, it couldn’t even force Lin Fan to listen to it even if it wanted to. It was very simply a problem of lacking the power to do so. That was just what kind of weak condition it was currently in.

Since they had reached an understanding, the two of them walked out of the town and headed down the road towards the city.

The city was the place with the most dense population, so it would make sense that there would be the most corpses there, perfect for letting the Corpse Eater eat its fill.

Along the way though, the two of them never said a single word.

It was several dozen kilometers, but Lin Fan had become much stronger now that he had regained his cultivation, so he was able to cross that distance in just a few hours.

The scene that appeared in front of him was even worse than the scenes that he had seen back in the war with the barbarians.

All around the city, there were corpses.

Even before he reached the city walls, he saw the corpses that were lying on the sides of the road.

There were beast corpses and human corpses that were mixed together, but most of the time, they were human corpses. There were even human corpses that were half sticking out of the mouth of the beast corpses.

It was clear that these beasts had treated humans as nothing more than food and the humans had no choice but to fight back.

Lin Fan didn’t judge what happened, he just let the little rabbit eat its fill of the corpses.

As the corpses started disappearing into the stomach of the little rabbit, Lin Fan could feel his own cultivation become stronger.

Just from a few simple corpses, he broke through the Iron 1 Realm and quickly reached the Iron 9 Realm, only being a single step away from breaking through to the Bronze Realm. And all of that was only from eating the human corpses.𝑂𝔳𝐞𝒍xt.𝐜𝓞𝐦

The little rabbit had wanted to eat the beast corpses as well, but these beast corpses were all from beasts that had some form of cultivation and were too hard for the little rabbit to eat.

Until it broke through to the Bronze Realm, it wouldn’t be able to bite through these corpses.

During this time, Lin Fan had gathered the human corpses from around the area to feed the little rabbit.

As he moved the corpses, he didn’t reveal a single ripple of emotion on his face which surprised the black ball of light.

It had been silent as it floated by Lin Fan’s side during this time, but seeing how relaxed Lin Fan was moving the human corpses, it couldn’t help feeling curious. After a while, it couldn’t take its curiosity anymore and asked, “How can you feel nothing from moving these corpses? They were living humans just like you a few hours ago.”

Lin Fan didn’t bother looking at the black ball of light as he continued moving the corpses, but he answered, “They’re dead now, so what is there to feel? Life and death is like that, corpses are just corpses. Not to mention that these aren’t people that I knew, so why would I feel anything from their deaths?”

The black ball of light was surprised by Lin Fan’s answers.

As far as it knew, humans were emotional beings that were easily affected by life and death. It had never seen a human who was this relaxed towards life and death like Lin Fan was.

Perhaps if it was either Lin Fan before the transmigration, they would have been affected by this, but after experiencing death once, the current Lin Fan was no longer as bothered by life and death. He just accepted that death was something natural and that it would come one day.

After thinking for a bit, the black ball of light suddenly said, “You really seem suited for the law of death. How about I teach it to you?”

Lin Fan stopped moving when he heard this.

He turned to look at the black ball of light and after a moment of thought, he asked, “Why would you make this offer now?”

The black ball of light just casually said, “You seem suited for it, so why not?”

Lin Fan answered, “How can you be sure that I’ll even be able to learn the law of death? Not to mention that even if I did, how could I make any progress if everything that I learned came from you?”

The black ball of light didn’t answer right away, but the way the light in it rippled made it seem like it was confused by Lin Fan’s answer. After a bit, it asked, “Why would you think that you can’t make progress if I teach you about the law of death? It’s still your own comprehension, so why can’t you make progress?”

This time, it was Lin Fan’s turn to be confused.

Teaching laws was something that had existed in his previous life, but it was something that was rarely done because one’s understanding of the laws was unique. If one were to teach someone else their understandings, they would be forcing them to follow their understandings instead of their own understandings.

If they didn’t have their own understandings of a law, it meant that they didn’t have a grasp of the law itself, meaning that they would never be able to make any progress with this law.

Essentially, it was to make someone who was weak stronger, but it would also be crippling them since they would never be able to advance.

Something like this was only done for weaker members of noble families to make them strong enough to be one of the members of this noble family. They would be used as soldiers in the future, but they could never be a true member of the noble family.

This was Lin Fan’s understanding of teaching someone laws, so the concept that the black ball of light gave him completely went against this.

But that also made Lin Fan curious since he could tell that the black ball of light truly believed what he had just said.

So in the end, he said, “Alright, teach me the laws then.”

The black ball of light felt that something was off, but since Lin Fan had accepted, it chose not to pursue this matter. It simply floated up and down to give a nod in response to this.

Lin Fan kept feeding the little rabbit and soon it had broken through to the Bronze Realm.

Once it broke through, it was able to start eating the beast corpses in the Bronze Realm, which increased its cultivation at an even faster rate.

By the end of the day, the little rabbit had already reached the Silver Realm.

At this rate, it seemed like it wouldn’t take long for it to break through to the Soul Realm.
