Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 731: Death God’s Weapon [Rod Part]

Inside the ruins, at the interior of the Pyramid like building.

After separating from the other fours, Ru Yunlan who is listening to the instruction of the voice in his mind moves unhindered in the building. He didn’t even bump into any beings from this building itself. He moves silently and without sounds even his footsteps were so light that not even its rhythm can be heard.

The death god’s soul fragment said as he brought his successor before a room and is now standing in front of a huge door. For those who are sensitive to death, they would definitely notice that this door was emitting an extremely powerful energy of death coming from within. This black aura made even Ru Yunlan hesitate. He didn’t want to become a demon that would be controlled by death qi. He wanted to be the one in control.

Ru Yunlan took a step back and said, "Can I truly enter this place? I will not get controlled by the death qi?"

{Is that something you are worried about? You possess the Nether Physique which is the most suitable to control death qi. Though your current body is a bit lacking you never have to worry about getting controlled by someone. That jade token hanging on your waist is enough to subdue this energy.} The soul fragment of the Death God said. {You truly don’t know how lucky you are. To have a godmother who is also the successor of Lord Shura and Lord Deva. With her imprint, unless another Primordial God tried to harm you, you would remain unharmed by all kinds of illusion, control and soul seizure. Well, she must have given that to you because she is afraid I might take full control of your body.}

Ru Yunlan looked at the Crescent Moon with a snow lotus flower shaped token on his waist. He didn’t know what kind of materials made this token but it’s transparent and unless you look closely at it no one would even know he has this token. If he poured a bit of qi in it the color would change to pure white jade with slight crimson shade at the moon part. Of course, it wasn’t only he who received this but also his Uncle Xiao, Han Haerin, his mother Ru Lanyu, his Aunt Lin and his Uncle Han also shared one.

At that time, he thought it was just an ordinary token, now he is being told that the reason he can remain sane before such a thick death qi without losing control was all thanks to this taken from his godmother. He smiled thinking how protective his godmother was toward them and was gratified.

Ru Yunlan asked, "What is inside that you wanted me to take away?" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

{It is something extremely useful for you. It is a part of my broken weapon. As long as you gather all the fragments you would be able to use it to make all those who fear death and are connected to the death realm kneel down before you. Of course you will need to find my crown to make them completely submit.}

{As my future successor of course my crown and weapon is something I left behind for you. Now get inside. Take this weapon fragment and leave this place right away. This thing is the one that is making the dead beings in this building act like an immortal. Those damn parasites! How can they use my weapon as a battery to keep their puny lives extended!}

Ru Yunlan said, "Even if I take it away, can I even leave this place alive?"

{What a funny question. Are those teleportation talismans your godmother gave you toys? Those are genuine ones. With it you can even escape from another god’s domain control. Actually, if you don’t want it you can just give it to me.}

Ru Yunlan’s face turned gloomy and said, "My godmother gave this to me. I cannot give it to you."

{Stingy! Hmp! Get inside and grab the thing so we can leave and go back to the forest. Don’t even think of trying to save someone. You should remember what your Godmother says about prioritizing your life first before a stranger.}

The death god’s soul fragment reminded his heir. He knew that most children at this young man’s age are easily moved as they are sentimental and so. However, he also knew that this child is different from others. He is a boy who grew up being bullied and didn’t retaliate all these years because he yearns to have the love of his father, stepmother and half brother. In the end though he had enough and no longer yearns for love until his godmother, Haerin and his mother come back for him. Even though he didn’t have a father, there is his Uncle Xiao and future father-in-law, Uncle Han. He is no longer the hated one within the clan but someone who has a family that loves him.

Ru Yunlan pushed the large door open. As soon as he touched the door the death qi in the area had entered his body. The process was painful at first but gradually felt cold and refreshing. The death qi that entered his body was being automatically refined by his physique not only enhancing his body but also the qi he can control. After pushing the door lightly it opened and he entered to see an altar like interior inside.

There is a powerful formation capable of sealing inside. A six pointed star formation, six towering pillars with high grade soul stones at the top and in the middle of the formation is a black staff that is two heads taller than Ru Yunlan. The black staff seems to have a heartbeat and the black dragon design with slightly crimson scales was wrapped around it. The black dragon seems to be alive and is now peering on him with its crimson eyes.

It is an ordinary cultivator and not a successor of the death god had seen the staff they would most likely suffer mental illusion of being devoured by the blood dragon until their souls were completely eaten by it.

ROAR~

Ru Yunlan was stunned and said, "This broken weapon is alive?"

{It’s a Divine grade artifact. Of course, it possessed a soul. There is a Nether Evil Dragon’s soul living in it. I had a hard time refining that bullheaded dragon into this artifact.}

"You killed a dragon?" Ru Yunlan asked.

{Don’t be stupid. I didn’t. It was he who didn’t want to die and begged me to extend his life. I have extended it multiple times but unless you are a primordial god no one can be an immortal. You must still enter reincarnation after death.}

While the two are conversing on their own, they didn’t notice that the dragon soul had been observing them right from the very beginning. It can actually feel a sense of familiarity towards the young man and that lingering soul inside the young man. He felt closer to the lingering soul and instantly recognized him.

{Master, have you been reborn. Did you come to pick us up? But my blade was taken awake by the Golden Dragon race and only I was barely able to escape to some space distortion and fell into this world. In my weakened state, some group of old dying fools who caught me and used me to extend their little life.} The artifact soul of the death scythe’s rod said.

Ru Yunlan who was listening quietly had nothing to say. He couldn’t understand much about the content of this conversation. As for the soul fragment of the death god inside him, he had once again materialized and floated before the black rod in the middle of the formation.

The death god’s soul fragment said, {This is just something mortals had created. How can you be sealed like this?}

{Master, you can blame me! After you broke us, we got weakened a lot. Some descendants that control life elements were used to restrict us. There is a world tree fragment used to detain me here.} The artifact soul of the death scythe’s rod said.

Frowning. The death god’s soul fragment said, {They even killed a world tree just to seal you down here. No wonder. What the hell are they trying to do? The only ones who can wield you are I and my successor. There is nothing they can change about this fact.}

{Master, the one who sealed me here is from beyond the cosmos!} The artifact soul of the death scythe’s rod said.

This time the soul fragment of the death god was stunned. He thought it was his enemies who had sealed his weapon after it broke him itself trying to repair it. However, it is impossible to repair as only he knows the way to do it. But he didn’t expect it was an outsider who took his fragmented weapon away.

The soul fragment of the death god said, {Are they trying to prevent the return of the Ancient Gods and Primordial Gods?}
