“What about you?”

Lin Ye turned his gaze to the last zombie king, Zhao Yuan, and his eyes revealed coldness. “One minute is up. Seeing that the two of them have wasted time talking, I can give you an extra chance to speak. If you can’t, you can stay here forever.”

“My… my lord, I’m the same as Liu Yong. The two of us are weak and our strength is average. We don’t know much.”

Zhao Yuan hurriedly took out a tattered map and said with a trembling voice, “This basic map of the western region of the Zombie Divine Realm in my hand is the most valuable treasure I have.”

“West of the Zombie Divine Realm…”

Lin Ye was speechless.

He had already gotten this through 100xReward. He had the whole map now.

“Change it,” he said casually.

“Change? Ah?” Zhao Yuan was stunned.

Why? Why was it that Liu Yong could do it, but not him?

“Why? Are you questioning my words?” Lin Ye glanced at him.

The powerful will wave instantly suppressed Zhao Yuan’s world until it darkened, almost causing his soul to collapse.

“My… my lord, spare me!”

Zhao Yuan kowtowed repeatedly, creating a huge pit in the ground.

Perhaps because he was desperate, he hurriedly said, “I, I once picked up a fragment of an unknown era. I don’t know how valuable it is, my lord, but this thing’s origin is definitely not simple…”

“Oh? Show me.” Lin Ye was interested.

Although there was a high chance that something like this would be trash, there were always exceptions.

If it was really a fragment of some precious treasure, it would be trash in the hands of others.

But that might not be the case in his hands.

“My lord, this is it.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuan hurriedly took out a fragment that looked like gold but was not.

It was small, only the size of a finger.

The cross section was flat, as if it had been blasted apart by some huge external force.

Lin Ye grabbed it and took a look.

It was cold to the touch.

It was unknown if it was because it was shattered too thoroughly that it did not trigger the system notification.

But there was something strange.

This fragment was hard beyond imagination.

With his current strength, he could easily grind steel into dust with a clench of his fist and destroy a few mountains with a punch.

Even so, no matter how hard he tried, he could not do anything to this fragment.

“My lord, other than being hard, this thing has no other use. However, it’s precisely because of this that I firmly believe that the origin of this damaged item is definitely not simple. I’ve once tried to use my zombie teeth to bite it. The 10,000-year corrosive black water of the Black Water Zombie King was unable to destroy this thing even after being burned by the demonic flames of the Abyss.”

Zhao Yuan explained.

“I know. Whether it’s useful or not, this thing is sufficient to save your life.”

Lin Ye nodded.

“Thank you, thank you, my lord!” Zhao Yuan kowtowed excitedly.

Lin Ye ignored this and turned to the damaged fragment.

Whoosh—

Light golden data appeared in his eyes.

His Transcending Eye automatically activated. Light shone as he quickly analyzed the basic information of this fragment.

“The basic composition of the fragments: Analyzing… About 1,000,000 years. 100xReward talent. Estimated time: 10,000 years!”

“Impressive, with a demigod-level Transcending Eye, it actually still takes 1 million years to crack!”

Lin Ye narrowed his eyes and smiled.

The quality of the Transcending Eye was not low. Yet, it would still take such a long time to decipher it.

This meant that the origin of this fragment was stronger.

Unfortunately, from the outside, he could not see any valuable information.

There was no way to directly recover to its original state through 100xReward.

“Xuan Xin, Wan Li, and Ling Kong, please come over.”

After some thought, he said.

These three were the three most experienced subordinates who had lived the longest among the citizens present.

With their knowledge, they might be able to obtain some valuable information.

“Human Lord.”

Mu Xuan and the other two flashed and appeared in front of Lin Ye.

“Help me see if you’ve seen any similar fragments or their origins.”

Lin Ye raised his hand and handed the fragment to Mu Xuanxin.

“This thing!”

“Very magical…”

After playing with it in his palm for a while, Mu Xuanxin revealed a surprised expression.

She held the fragment between her fingers, and a wisp of green immortal power flowed out of her eyes and invaded the entire fragment.

After a moment, he frowned and said slowly, “It’s something ancient and the material is strange. It’s not affected by the Ten Thousand Flower Immortal Energy at all. It doesn’t feel like a precious treasure for forging weapons. I don’t sense any Dao runes, not even broken Dao patterns.”

“This is like a special sealed map, or a scrap that records some secret techniques.”

“Let me take a look.” Huo Tengkong was itching.

After receiving the fragment, he first used the Yin Yang Li Fire Sword to slash a few times before burning it with the Five Elements Fire.

As Zhao Yuan said, it did not budge.

“Impressive. As expected of a treasure that can’t even be burned by the Limitless Demon Fire. Even my Five Elements Fire can’t burn it. It can’t even heat it up. I can confirm that the density of this material is definitely unparalleled in this world. Even my Yin Yang Li Fire Sword is far inferior to it.”

Huo Tengkong praised.

“It can surpass the Yin Yang Li Fire Sword!”

Fu Wanli secretly clicked his tongue. With Huo Tengkong’s personality, it was indeed not simple for him to say this. His eyes flickered as he said, “In other words, the entire fragment is at least above the top of the Creation realm. The materials needed for it to be at least at the Reincarnation realm or even higher.”

“But the problem is, just as Sister Xuanxin said, this thing is similar to the scraps of those special sealed maps or clan secret techniques. What kind of map or clan secret technique is worthy of the material of this fragment?”

“Can you confirm if it’s a special sealing map or a secret technique?” Lin Ye frowned and interrupted.

“I can’t be sure, but it does look a little like it. After all, even I have never seen it with my own eyes in that ancient era.” Mu Xuanxin shook his head and continued, “It’s a pity that Valkyrie Tian Xi has left. Otherwise, with her long lifespan, she might know something.”

“I hope so.”

Lin Ye shrugged.

However, he still did not give up. He actually could not trigger the system’s congratulatory message, preventing him from triggering the 100xReward.

This was the first time in history.

“System, come out.” He summoned inwardly.

“Speak.” A lifeless electronic voice sounded in his ear.

“I want to spend money to ask questions.”

As he spoke, he raised the fragment. “I’ve obtained it. Why can’t I trigger the system’s reward notification! Is it a bug?”

Whoosh—

An invisible wave swept across.

After a moment of silence, the system said slowly, “This question is of a high level. The amount of credit required is high. It starts at 100 million Zombie Souls. Do you wish to ask?”

“From 100 million…”

Lin Ye’s mouth twitched.

Bastard, the system actually dared to ask for so much.

However, since there were no good things when it was cheap, he still chose to ask.

Whoosh—

He heard the sound of money sliding down.

The words ‘-100 million Zombie Souls’ appeared on the interface.

Fortunately, he had refined more than a billion previously.

Otherwise, just this wave of attacks would make Lin Ye’s heart ache.

Soon, the money was deducted.

The system replied truthfully, “Firstly, it’s not a bug in the system. The reason why it can’t be triggered is that the reward mechanism requires additional content.”

“This fragment doesn’t contain any nomological power, divine patterns, map information, or the original text of the secret manual. As long as there’s a trace of it, it can trigger a system notification.”

“What do you mean?” Lin Ye’s face darkened.

“It means that you need to find a fragment that is of the same origin and larger,” the system said.

“Just this? You want me to give you 100 million Zombie Souls?” Lin Ye raised his voice.

“This question belongs to the second question. If you choose to answer, you need to continue to spend money. As long as it doesn’t involve basic information about the matter in the Inner Realm, you can ask any questions about the system.”

“F*ck your sister. You didn’t say anything useful and you still want money? Scram!” Lin Ye cursed.

“Blasphemy System is a felony. On account of that you are a super VIP, 100 million Zombie Souls will be deducted as punishment. Take this as an example. This will not happen again!”

Whoosh—

Another wave of money slid down.

-100 million Zombie Souls!

“!!!”

~( ̄0 ̄)

Lin Ye was dumbfounded. Before he could curse, the system had already run away with the money.
