CHAPTER 637: CHAPTER 635: EMPEROR JADE, IS THIS REAL? (2ND UPDATE)

You should know.

For an ordinary cultivator, the storage ring is absolutely locked with Divine Sense.

Moreover, if an ordinary cultivator perishes, the storage ring might self-destruct, destroying everything inside.

Even if there isn’t a self-destruct function set, the storage ring of most cultivators, if not opened by the owner himself, will self-destruct when forcibly opened by a stranger.

However.

Lin Fan easily opened the storage rings of four people, which surprised Su Yun greatly!

At this time.

Lin Fan’s Divine Sense swept through and took out a type of stone from the storage ring.

This stone, pitch-black all over, only as big as a thumb, smooth all over, just like beautiful jade.

However.

The energy contained within this black stone was astonishingly high, shockingly so!

If a Spirit Stone the size of a fingernail is like a piece of burning charcoal.

Then the black stone in Lin Fan’s hand the size of a fingernail was like a nuclear reactor, completely not in the same league!

"What is this?"

Lin Fan held up a black stone and asked Su Yun.

Su Yun looked at Lin Fan with surprise and incredulity, seemingly unable to believe that Lin Fan did not recognize this type of stone.

"You don’t know?"

"Nonsense, if I knew, would I still ask you?" Lin Fan glanced at Su Yun.

Su Yun was even more surprised. Judging by Lin Fan’s performance, he indeed did not recognize this stone.

Strange!

Too strange!

With Lin Fan’s terrifying strength, he shouldn’t be unfamiliar with Xuan Stone!

Even if Lin Fan didn’t know, Murong Guan, as the Pavilion Master of the Holy Mansion, couldn’t possibly not recognize a Xuan Stone, right?

Indeed.

At this moment, Murong Guan took the initiative to explain, "Lin Fan, this is a Xuan Stone, a stone produced from a higher plane, containing energy far more terrifying than that of Spirit Stones!"

"Yes, this thing is called Xuan Stone, even more powerful than Spirit Stones. A Xuan Stone the size of a fingernail is about equivalent to a million Spirit Stones, ten Xuan Stones equal ten million Spirit Stones, a hundred Xuan Stones correspond to a hundred million Spirit Stones!" Su Yun nodded in agreement.

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan was stunned.

A Xuan Stone the size of a fingernail equals a million Spirit Stones?

That’s too terrifying!

"Emperor Jade, is this true?" Lin Fan asked through spirit transmission.

"It’s true, one Xuan Stone is indeed about a million Spirit Stones. Spirit Stones are born in the Lower Plane, while Xuan Stones originate from the Middle Plane, the Divine Wind Continent belongs to the Middle Plane. Mainly because the concentration of Spiritual Energy varies, the types of Energy Stones also differ. Both Xuan Stones and Spirit Stones are a type of Energy Stones! Above the Middle Plane, there’s an even higher level called the Upper Plane, where neither Spirit Stones nor Xuan Stones are born, but rather something called ’Source’." Emperor Jade explained.

"Why didn’t you tell me earlier?" Lin Fan was somewhat speechless.

If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have made such a big blunder.

He had just thought that the Xuan Stone the size of a fingernail was some kind of treasure!

"You didn’t ask, there are many things in the universe that you don’t know, if I told you everything, you wouldn’t finish hearing them even in ten years." Emperor Jade coldly replied.

"Cough cough... alright..."

Lin Fan coughed twice, curiously asking, "Then this ’Source’ you mentioned, isn’t it even more powerful than Spirit Stones and Xuan Stones?"

"Source is born between heaven and earth, just casually one piece of Source is roughly equivalent to the energy contained in ten billion Spirit Stones, you currently have no chance to come into contact with it, knowing it also doesn’t help." Emperor Jade shook his head.

"Hiss! One source equals ten billion spirit stones!" Lin Fan gasped in amazement.

"What’s so strange about that? It’s like on Earth, the same amount of coal burning definitely doesn’t produce as much energy as the same amount of gasoline, but the energy produced by the same amount of gasoline isn’t as much as the energy produced by nuclear fusion of the same material. Spirit stone is like charcoal, gasoline is like Xuan Stone, and nuclear fusion is like the source, isn’t that easy to understand?" Emperor Jade said indifferently.

Lin Fan nodded silently, indeed that was the principle.

After understanding what Xuan Stones were, Lin Fan thoroughly inspected four storage bags.

The Xuan Stones inside totaled over a thousand pieces.

Among them.

In Song Tianhao’s storage bag, there were over three hundred Xuan Stones.

In the storage bags of Yuan Shiyang, Bai Feng, and Su Xin, each had over two hundred Xuan Stones.

According to the ratio mentioned by Su Yun, a hundred Xuan Stones equate to one hundred million spirit stones.

These thousand and more Xuan Stones together amounted to ten billion spirit stones!

Ten billion spirit stones, for the current Lin Fan, had no effect.

However, it was Lin Fan’s first time acquiring Xuan Stones, so he simply put them directly into the Coiling Dragon Ancient Ring.

As for the other items, Lin Fan did not take them, but handed them over to Murong Guan for the Holy Mansion’s cultivation materials!

"Alright, you can kill me now!"

Su Yun spoke, standing rigidly there, Lin Fan killed Song Tianhao, Yuan Shiyang, Bai Feng, Su Xin, and others...

Her fate, probably similar to theirs!

However.

Su Yun had her own pride, did not beg for mercy, preferring to die with dignity rather than live without it!

"Kill you? When did I say I wanted to kill you?" Lin Fan looked amusedly at Su Yun.

"You won’t kill me?" Su Yun was stunned, extremely surprised.

Lin Fan actually not killing her?

"What benefit is there for me in killing you?" Lin Fan looked at Su Yun and continued, "If there’s any benefit, I would kill you, but if there’s no benefit, why would I kill you?"

Su Yun frowned, looking at Lin Fan uncertainly: "You’re keeping me alive, aren’t you afraid I would reveal today’s events? Didn’t you just say that dead people can keep secrets? If so, wouldn’t killing me be better?"

"Firstly, you won’t reveal what happened here."

"Secondly, you’re different from them, I understand the situation, so I won’t kill you."

"Thirdly, I still have use for you," Lin Fan said lightly.

After saying this, Lin Fan turned around and left.

He disappeared from Su Yun’s view!

Pavilion Master and Elders of the Holy Mansion, women like Ye Yilin, all followed behind Lin Fan, leaving the square.

Filled with confusion, Su Yun returned to the Breakthrough Ship.

But.

Because of insufficient energy, the Breakthrough Ship couldn’t start at all, let alone leave the Holy Mansion, it could only stop at the square outside the Holy Mansion.

...

...

In Su Yun’s boudoir on the Breakthrough Ship.

"He really is a strange person... What is his background? Having such a terrifying cultivation, he can kill a Ninth Rank Saint Lord easily at Void Refining Late Stage Realm! Such a person, even on the Divine Wind Continent, must be a top freak!" Su Yun murmured to herself with a frown.

"Listening to those people’s conversation, this young man... seems to be called Lin Fan... Lin Fan..." Su Yun murmured softly.
