Chapter 1090: Outstanding Talents

Translator: Sigma_ Editor: SSins

The Guiding Fruit was as big as a walnut. It had a strange blue hue with many strange patterns on it. Strange energy was surging inside that fruit, which was someone resonating with the ancient continent called

"Desolate.

" With a close look, Shi Yan could see that the patterns on the Guiding Fruit were releasing the clear blue light.

Shang Chen threw the Guiding Fruit to Shi Yan, his face bitter and regretful.

"The Guiding Fruits are scarce. People got it from the previous time that the ancient continent opened. It's called the Key of Desolate. You can use it to enter

"Desolate.

" I have fulfilled my promise to Frederick.

"

The Guiding Fruit felt a little cold in Shi Yan's hand. Still furrowing his brows, Shi Yan didn't understand Shang Chen's intention.

"I don't get it.

"

"Okay, it's like this,

" Shang Chen looked at the ancient continent called Desolate in front of them. His eyes sparkled with divine light,

"Desolate has many secrets. It also has the most magical, wonderful herbs and stones. Most of them are at Original Incipient Grade, which is most suitable for refining weapons and pellets. In this vast sea of stars, you can consider Desolate an undiscovered treasure house.

"

"What does it matter to the Soul Rotting Aphides inside my Great Grandfather?

" Shi Yan tightened his fingers around the rigid fruits and asked,

"Why does Frederick want me to get in there?

"

"There's something that could wash the Soul Rotting Aphides in your Great Grandfather's brain. That thing is rare and hard to find. It's in the ancient continent.

"

Shang Chen pointed at Desolate and said,

"That thing is called Seven-colored Demonic Flower. It looks like a beautiful girl's face. It can cry or smile, and yes, it has cognition. It can poison a person's mind. That flower is an Original Incipient Grade herb. It's the most precious tonic to refine many soul spells and charms.

"

Pausing for a while, Shang Chen continued,

"And I don't know why Frederick wants you to get in there. But I think that people who get the Guiding Fruit would risk their lives to get into that continent.

"

"Because of those rare treasures of earth and heaven?

" asked Shi Yan.

"Nah, it's only one reason,

" Shang Chen smiled and said,

"Desolate is an ancient continent. It has cognition! Right from the beginning, it has sealed itself and kept wandering around the significant star areas. It opens every ten thousand years. Besides giving birth to the earth and heaven precious treasures, there are more mysterious areas in the center of Desolate because it has maintained the primal status since the beginning. The other ancient continents have exhausted their energy to produce creatures. Gradually, they became just like other typical life stars.

"But Desolate is different! It has never given birth to creatures. Earth and heaven energy in that continent is still at its thickest level. There's something marvelous of the primal time. However, only those who can get in there could understand... As far as I know, experts of the great star areas who returned alive from Desolate always had a harvest. Their realm breaking speeds would increase unimaginably.

"

Shi Yan was bewildered. He asked,

"Experts from other star areas could get in that continent too? What's the realm breaking you've mentioned?

"

"Of course the experts of the other star areas would come here!

" Shang Chen's face was calm.

"As far as I know, this time, there should be dozens of warriors entering the ancient planet. They're all outstanding talents of the big star area. Their powers are astounding. Just like you, they even have the ability to challenge warriors at a higher realm.

"

Pausing for a while, Shang Chen said earnestly,

"The breaking I've mentioned is about your powers Upanishads. I heard that warriors could fuse different powers Upanishads in Desolate. I think Frederick wants you to come here because of this feature. Your powers Upanishads are many, which holds you down. Desolate... is extremely suitable for you.

"

Shi Yan pondered for a while and then said,

"Is it true that anybody with the Guiding Fruit could enter Desolate?

"

"No,

" Shang Chen shook his head,

"Desolate will resist and expel Incipient God Realm experts. Since the Incipient God Realm experts' energy is too abundant, it would damage Desolate's structure. Thus, Incipient God Realm experts wouldn't be able to get in there. Only warriors like you, the outstanding warriors at Ethereal God Realm can access that continent. You will meet plenty of Ethereal God Realm experts from different star areas, not only Fantasy Mist Star Area. There will be experts from many star areas including the God Clan experts...

"

"Will there be fighting?

" asked Shi Yan seriously.

"It's not

"will.

" Battle happens every minute in the most furious and bloodies way. The Original Incipient Grade materials and marvelous regions that cultivate different power Upanishads can make people crazy. Right at the moment you get in there, you will have to face the strongest Ethereal God Realm experts in this universe. Since you are at First Sky of Ethereal God Realm, haha, you must be more careful, boy.

"

While talking, a book flew out of Shang Chen's sleeves. As it was flipping in the wind, Shi Yan could see figures and drawings on each page, including grass, flower, stones, wood materials, and more. All looked lively as if they were real samples. Shi Yan could see the tiny descriptions too.

"Here, take this book. It contains the drawings of the Original Incipient Grade materials that I've studied. You will need it in Desolate.

"

Shi Yan didn't pretend to be too polite. He reached for the book and bowed to thank the old man.

"I told you what I had to tell you,

" Shang Chen rubbed his chin, which didn't have a beard. He swung his hand generously,

"You should go. Just hold the Guiding Fruit in your hand. When you go near Desolate, something will happen. I don't need to tell you more. I've remembered your soul energy fluctuation. Ten years later, I will come and find you to help you complete your tasks.

"

After Shang Chen said that, he turned around and left quickly as if he was afraid to meet someone here.

In just a blink of an eye, he disappeared from Shi Yan's line of sight. His aura was also concealed. No matter how hard Shi Yan tried, he couldn't track him down.

The ancient continent named Desolate was still barging into other stars and crushing the stars standing in its way. Sparks of broken stars exploded like the most dazzling fireworks. It was still moving around in the area of thick mist.

Shi Yan observed closer. He found that Desolate was slowing down as if it knew what it was doing.

Although Desolate was moving fast, Shi Yan wasn't afraid that he would get ditched behind as he had cultivated Space power Upanishad. It wouldn't be a big problem to chase after Desolate. Thus, Shi Yan wasn't hurried.

Suddenly, his soul had a vibe as he felt three auras approaching him.

The vitality waves of those three auras were abundant with a lot of Blood Qi. Shi Yan could feel one of them was at Second Sky of Incipient God Realm.

He couldn't know Shang Chen's realm because of his magical power Upanishad. However, he vaguely guessed that Shang Chen was at Third Sky of Incipient God Realm. He was likely one of the true peerless experts of this universe.

Three blasts sweeping over like rainbows or three lightning strikes. Shortly after, three people appeared right at the location where Shang Chen had just disappeared.

A married woman in her forties with an appearance of someone who had experienced hardships in her life emerged. She wore a dark blue brocade garment with a jade ornamented belt that marked her beautiful contours. Although her gait was graceful, her face was full of rage. As soon as she arrived, she thundered,

"Old bastard! Bring your ass here!

"

Standing by the woman were one young lady and one young man who looked pretty similar to Shang Chen. The young man looked really dashing. He was wearing a silver robe. He was fast and had great manners, but his face was so cold.

The young woman was slender and was wearing a light blue dress. She had a water blue vest over her dress that showcased her two white, jade-like arms. Her moonlight arms were decorated with many colorful jade rings. She also wore a crescent moon emerald necklace that dangled above her ample bosom, which supported her charming figure.

The young woman had a lagoon belt on her waist, which was as small as a hand and as delicate as a snake.

The middle-aged women brought a young man and a girl to this area, right when Shang Chen had just left. She ground her teeth.

"That damn old bastard! I'd risked my life to take the Guiding Fruit for our children and you stole one. Tell me, is that how you do your parenting role?

" The matured woman looked here and there. She spoke through her gritted teeth,

"Get your ass down here for me!

"

The young man and lady were also cold. They harshly looked around.

It was too bad that Shang Chen had left earlier.

The three of them released their Soul Consciousness to search for him for a while. The married woman had shouted for a while but they didn't see any commotion of Shang Chen. After a long time, they gave up.

The woman glanced and her line of sight fell on Shi Yan. She struggled in her mind for a while and then said to him all of a sudden,

"That old bastard handed something to you. I know it. I know the aura of the Guiding Fruit because I found them, two of them.

"

She turned her head, looking lovingly at the man and the girl behind her. Taking a deep breath, she said,

"Please return it to us. I've prepared the fruits for my son and daughter. Shang Chen that bastard, has stolen one from me.

"

Pausing for a while, she said resentfully.

"I don't care what he has promised other people. I don't mind what earth-shaking favor he owes them. Nevertheless, this Guiding Fruit belongs to me. He has stolen it from me. Please return it to me!

"

The young man and the lady focused on Shi Yan.

"Friend, you've reached First Sky of Ethereal God Realm. Even if you can get into Desolate with Guiding Fruit, you can't survive for ten years there. You should know reality and return the fruit to us. I'm sure we won't mistreat you. We will find another chance to repay the favor that my father owes you guys. What do you think?

" The young man was calm. He spoke with great manners. The way he treated people looked pretty similar to Shang Chen's.

At the same time, the slender girl in blue took after her mother. Her swan-egg-shaped face was mesmerizingly beautiful. However, she had a cold and clear voice,

"Please return our thing to its owner. Otherwise, we will not be afraid to take it back with force.

"

"Don't be wanton!

" The young man shouted at her.

"He has some relationship with Father. Our Father has taken risks to cause a grudge with us to give him the fruit. He has his reasoning that we don't know. We don't want to trouble him too much though.

"

"Don't mind that heartless bastard. He deserves his ten thousand deaths sentence as he doesn't care about his children's futures!

" The woman was so enraged. It looked like she didn't want to waste her saliva talking about her husband.

"Boy, please give it back to us. We really don't want to trouble you.

"

"I'm sorry. This Guiding Fruit is very important to me. It's related to my beloved one's death or life. I... I can't give it back to you.

"

Shi Yan bent his body slightly and sighed.

A dazzling space slit cracked behind his back. He clasped his hands towards the three and stepped backward, disappeared into the space slit. When he reappeared, he was at the outer layer of Desolate already.
