Chapter 315 The Completion of the Law Fragment and the Rift
The energy boiling on the body surface was torn into even more chaos by gravity.
"Shinra Tensei!"
Without pausing, the instant [Universal Pull] took effect, pulling the opponent closer and somewhat restricting their form changes, Lin Tian unleashed the full power of [Shinra Tensei]!
The terrifying repulsive force interacted with the not-yet-completely-dissipated gravitational force, producing a bizarre "tearing" effect!
boom--!!!
Orgrim's massive energy body was violently twisted, expanded, and then compressed under the dual ravages of gravity and repulsion!
A series of chaotic energy bursts continuously on his body surface, and his health began to drop rapidly!
Lin Tian's eyes were icy cold, and the energy circulation within his body was at its maximum. Before the repulsive force of the second [Shinra Tensei] had completely dissipated, the third was already ready!
"Finish."
Push out with both palms again!
A third, even more violent repulsive force, like an invisible giant hammer of stars, slammed into the core of the Battlefield Soul, which was already severely damaged and had an extremely unstable energy structure!
Boom-! ! ! !
A deafening explosion! Orgrim's massive energy body burst apart like a punctured balloon!
Countless streams of different colored law energy scattered uncontrollably, plowing through the already chaotic ground once again!
At the center of the explosion, five irregularly shaped crystals, roughly the size of a palm, crystal clear and seemingly containing countless tiny runes flowing within, slowly floated in the air, emitting pure and powerful fluctuations of law.
[You have slain Orgrim, the Spirit of the Battlefield (Lv.60 Lord)!]
Experience points gained: ......
[Gold Coins Earned: ......]
[Materials obtained: Chaotic Energy Essence (Grade A) x20, Law Crystal (Grade S) x1...]
[Quest Item Obtained: Law Fragment x5!]
The system prompted that the page had been refreshed.
Five fragments of law flew automatically towards Lin Tian and landed in his hand. They felt warm to the touch, yet were as heavy as a thousand pounds, each containing a unique essence of law.
【Fragment of Law (S-Rank Special Item)】: A highly pure condensation of the power of law, which can be used to comprehend the laws, forge divine artifacts, or perform certain supreme advancements.
Quest item "Fragment of Law" collection progress (5/5).
The third material has been collected.
Lin Tian put away the fragments and felt that the surrounding turbulent currents of laws seemed to have calmed down a lot because of the death of the Battlefield Soul, but the chaotic environment of the ruins itself had not changed.
Without stopping, the teleportation beacon was reactivated.
......
The Refining Guild, fourth floor.
Sima Han looked at the five shimmering "fragments of law" on the table, then at Lin Tian, whose expression was as calm as still water, and felt his throat go dry.
He picked up a fragment and sensed it carefully; the pure and intense aura of law within it was undeniable.
"...Orgrim from the ancient battlefield, you also..." Sima Han no longer knew how to describe his feelings.
This efficiency and this strength make it seem like they're completing a routine errand rather than challenging lords of dangerous areas.
"A clue to 'Astral Dust Crystal'," Lin Tian reminded him, as he was pressed for time.
Sima Han composed himself, walked to a bookshelf labeled "Astrology," and took out a fist-sized crystal ball that seemed to contain a swirling starry sky.
He infused it with magic, and a dynamic starry sky appeared in the crystal ball, with a certain point constantly twinkling.
"Astral dust, as the name suggests, is related to the astral plane. It is not a product of our prime material world, but rather formed when astral energy permeates the material world and settles and crystallizes at certain special nodes."
Sima Han pointed to the shimmering dots in the crystal ball,
"About nine hundred miles to the east of Starmoon City, there exists a somewhat unstable 'Astral Rift'."
That wasn't a complete passage, but rather a crack created by the friction between the barriers of two worlds, from which astral energy and matter would occasionally leak out.
"Around that rift, ten relatively stable 'energy nodes' have formed, where astral energy is highly concentrated."
You need to destroy these ten nodes and use the astral essence leaked when the nodes collapse to instantly condense it into 'Astral Dust Crystals'.
Each node can theoretically aggregate into a single entity.
Sima Han's tone became serious:
"However, that rift is not unclaimed land."
A powerful astral creature—[Astral Hunter Leviathan]—discovered this rift at some point and regarded it as its hunting ground and territory.
It roams around the rift year-round, hunting any creature that gets close, including astral creatures that occasionally crawl in from the other side of the rift.
Its level is estimated to be around 62, a Lord-type, and it is extremely adept at stealth and raiding within astral energy environments.
"You need to destroy the node first, which will inevitably alert it."
Under its relentless pursuit, completing the destruction of ten nodes and the condensation of dust crystals is extremely difficult.
Many masters skilled in spatial and astral magic have attempted this, but most have failed, and some have even perished.
"Star Hunter... Leviathan..." Lin Tian memorized the name. "Coordinates."
Sima Han handed Lin Tian the spatial coordinates (including altitude information) of the high-altitude rift, hesitated for a moment, and then took out a silver ring engraved with tiny star runes.
"This 'Astral Ring' can slightly enhance your perception and control of astral energy, and may help with condensing dust crystals. It's yours."
Lin Tian accepted the ring, thanked him, and turned to leave.
Watching Lin Tian disappear, Sima Han sat back in his chair and rubbed his temples.
"An astral rift, a high-altitude environment, a stealthy hunter... this is much more troublesome than the previous places... can he continue to create miracles?"
He suddenly felt a mixture of anticipation and worry. Lin Tian's speed in gathering materials and the strength he displayed had completely exceeded his comprehension.
......
Lin Tian did not head directly to the high-altitude rift, but instead returned to his residence first.
He put on the "Astral Ring" and sensed it slightly. He could indeed perceive the thin, omnipresent stars and astral energy in the air more clearly, which also slightly enhanced the recovery and control of the [Star Power].
"Celia, we're going to be at high altitudes next, and the environment might not be suitable for you to be active for a long time. You should rest in the pet space first," Lin Tian said.
"Okay, Brother Tian, be careful." Celia nodded obediently and transformed into a stream of light, returning to the pet space.
Lin Tian walked outside alone and looked up at the eastern horizon.
Astral rift...high in the sky...a stealthy hunter...
A sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
The next moment, [Blink] was activated, and his figure soared into the sky!
Target: Astral Rift, 900 miles above the ground!
