Chapter 1140

They knew well that if the fragment had indeed gained consciousness as Xing Yao claimed, its power would far exceed their wildest imagination, reaching heights they could never hope to attain. For the entire cultivation world, this would undoubtedly be an unprecedented revolution, one that would completely shatter their understanding of magical artifacts. At this moment, Granny Yin and Old Wine finally recovered from their shock, their eyes filled with a newfound sense of awe as they looked at Xing Yao. Although Xing Yao had lost in their previous encounter, they now understood that his defeat was no disgrace. Among the thousands of magical artifacts in existence, the chance of one developing consciousness was infinitesimally small—less than one in a million. As a relic of the Buddhist sect, the fragment had long been nurtured and tempered by Buddhist Spiritual Qi, making it entirely possible for it to have gained such awareness. Contemplating this, they could not help but admire Xing Yao’s keen insight and discernment, while their own interest in the fragment grew intense. Furthermore, they felt a deeper sense of reverence for the Tianlong Sect. That a sect could possess such a powerful magical artifact was truly not to be underestimated.
