Chapter 326 Snatching Everything
'He's so powerful!'
"You there," Yang Lujia's voice suddenly echoed in the surroundings, stopping all the dark-looking creatures in their tracks. "You're not in any way helpful. Just shut up. I'm trying to locate the correct location of this broken world's core. You're just a nuisance. If this is a broken world, then you're also a broken guardian."
The guardian: "..."
Everyone in the surroundings: "..."
The dark-looking creatures: "..."
Silence pervaded the air. Even the surrounding darkness succumbed to it.
"Why have you all turned quiet?" Yang Lujia wondered, not noticing that his words alone caused even the dark-looking creatures to halt from taking another step. "Oh, I forgot. It seems like I also learned the rules of sound."
'What the hell are you on about?' Xie Dou's and the others' thoughts were like this. They were just as dumbfounded as the so-called guardian of the broken world.
Later on, seeing that no one was trying to respond to him, he felt the need to make it explosive. What came after snapping his fingers once was the sound of fire-crackling sounds that lit up the entire surroundings—flames arising from every body of the dark-looking creatures as they exploded one by one—like bombs, shaking the entire area.
On the other hand, the guardian within the broken world could not be any more dumbstruck with what was transpiring at the moment. It was extremely unbelievable that one person could do all this without even breaking a sweat. Moreover, this person did not even move significantly or largely—he just snapped his fingers like he was playing a game.
'Who the fuck is this guy?' it talked to its mind, its consciousness dwindling—wishing it would not encounter something like this. 'Could he be from that place?'
When everything went silent once more as Yang Lujia, he looked at the broken world in awe. This was clearly a world that had existed for several millions of years. There were varied resources around this broken world that had existed almost at the same time as this broken world's emergence.
Xie Dou and the others' eyes lit up as they saw the different types of resources that could help them advance their cultivations further—just one flower or herb from this Demon Garden, they would be able to ascend without any problems—and their strengths would not just advance by a small margin—this was the most tempting part.
However, before their fantasies came true, Yang Lujia unconsciously broke all of them.
He waved his hands and all the flowers and herbs alike—that had the element of darkness, were all absorbed to the Blood World, scaring the people around him. Apart from it being an exceedingly earth-shaking move, the others felt their hearts ache—as though they were about to be torn apart.
This devil.
All of them had the same thoughts, except for Yang Lujia's disciples.
'I thought master said he would bring us along because he wanted to traverse this broken world with us. In the end, he broke the already broken world and infiltrated its boundaries—even confiscating all its resources in one wave of his hand,' Sheng Ao thought at the moment.
"How dare you!" the guardian's voice reverberated all around the place, startling all the people within the vicinity. "How dare you steal all the resources of my dear master!"
"Shut up," Yang Lujia muttered as his figure shone amidst the darkness, exerting dominance that was never before seen. He then disappeared from their sights as he appeared very far from the others' positions, causing their eyes to constrict, especially those who had not seen Yang Lujia move like this before.
"So it was here all along," he whispered under his breath, looking at cube-like item below him. "Is this the so-called broken world core?"
"Who are you?" a voice appeared in his mind, causing him to look at a specific direction. There, he saw a silhouette of a ghost-like figure that had a menacing aura. It was exactly the guardian that had been incensed since earlier. "What are you doing in this realm? Shouldn't you be allowed to step in this world with that power of yours?"
"I don't know myself. However, I know that this broken world core here is a big help to my disciple. It can help him improve his Thanatos Bloodline," Yang Lujia directly said as he looked at the core. "I do not wish to exploit you using my power. However, I think I know your so-called master."
The figure's eyes turned into slits as he looked at Yang Lujia's expression.
"If you still don't believe me, if I wanted to, I could've destroyed this entire broken world and stole this core. In other words, if I intended to steal from you, you wouldn't even have the right to talk in front of me. You're strong, but you're not strong enough to contend against me. I'm a cautious person and I've already gauged your strength earlier from afar. Now, do you believe me?"
Further explaining made the guardian think that Yang Lujia was making sense.
"My disciple's name is Lin Diyu and he's my very first disciple that I took care from the lowest of the realms," Yang Lujia continued to explain. "His main attribute—I mean, he has very high affinity with darkness as I gave him an incomplete bloodline. It was known as the Thanatos Bloodline—"
"What..." the guardian unconsciously uttered as he looked at Yang Lujia in horror. "You! You are that person? What is the meaning of this? My master has long died. Why do you have his bloodline—no..." The guardian suddenly wriggled as he struggled to say whatever he was about to say. "No, why am I not allowed to say it? Are you really that person? What is your name?"
Yang Lujia was confused and told the guardian his name.
"Yang Lujia."
"A clan... you're one of their clan members... and also that other one..." the guardian leaned his gaze towards Yang Fei. "But your blood... it's denser than his... no... it's a at least a thousand denser than his..."
'You are not allowed to divulge anything as it may attract that fellow's attention...' a voice kept ringing inside the head of the guardian as it rolled down the ground, its figure slowly dissipating.
"What the heck?" Yang Lujia thought about it and he wondered whether this guardian had a mental disorder. He was saying things and then a second later, he would act like this. It was better to ignore him and retrieve the broken world core instead.
The broken world core was not that big. It was only a small dark cube. In fact, it had almost the same size as the "Dark Orders" they received earlier. Looking at it, Yang Lujia could feel a hint of Lin Diyu's quality of his rules of darkness. It was so dense that anyone, except him, would suffocate in front of this broken world core.
"I should call him out again," Yang Lujia as he waved his hand once more, pulling Lin Diyu out of the Blood World.
Lin Diyu's mouth was open, agape. In his arms were various flowers and different herbs. In his mouth, he was munching them like candies. Moreover, his aura was getting unstable at the moment.
Yang Lujia felt helpless as he looked at his first disciple. He could not blame him for the excitement he must have felt after seeing those mountain of treasures.
The guardian on the side, "..."
However, a while later, the guardian felt some sensation within him. Lin Diyu also sensed it as he looked at the figure on the ground who stopped wriggling like a worm.
"Why is this feeling so familiar?" they both mouthed, causing the two to be speechless.
"Anyway, master, why have you brought me out?" Lin Diyu still respectfully said as he looked at Yang Lujia.
Yang Lujia just smiled and gestured for Lin Diyu to come near him. "There's a broken world core and it's made completely of the rules of darkness. You may use this in the Blood World for you to absorb. I feel like it can greatly help you improve the quality of the bloodline I acquired for you."
"Improve the Thanatos Bloodline?"
Lin Diyu had always thought of improving his bloodline, so he would not be overtaken by his little junior brother, who had a very powerful bloodline. Therefore, he always dreamed of this kind of improvement. He thought there was no hope for it anymore and he could only bitterly cultivate with an incomplete bloodline. However, he did not expect that at this moment, his master actually offered to give him something this valuable.
'Master...'
