Chapter 1984: The Artifact Spirit Emerges! I Dislike Your Personality! You’re a Bit of a Chatterbox!
"It seems this Earth Emperor’s Tome, even though I can’t fully activate it, its power is still truly terrifying!"
Mu Jinyu looked at the undamaged Ghost Gate and the Other Shore Flower which was gradually recovering and becoming even more enchanting, and couldn’t help but exclaim to himself.
Then, his eyes flickered, thinking that with the Earth Emperor’s Tome, he could continue hunting those powerful royal clans again.
It’s not impossible!
Of course, the trap has to be set in advance.
After all, it’s unrealistic to expect that everyone is as naive as Ji Shisan, blindly rushing into his trap!
But once the arrangements are made in advance, the likelihood of them falling into the trap carelessly will greatly increase!
"Did you just realize?"
Just as Mu Jinyu was contemplating how to set the traps, suddenly, he heard a chilling, non-human voice.
"Hmm?!"
"Who?!"
Hearing the voice, Mu Jinyu became highly alert, turned around, and looked everywhere, spreading his Divine Sense in all directions, but found no suspicious figure!
Nobody was speaking nearby!
Then, Mu Jinyu’s expression slightly changed, realizing the words seemed not to reach his ears, but directly rang in his mind.
"This is..."
His eyes flickered, guessing who was sending him messages?
"Stop looking, and don’t let your imagination run wild, I am the Earth Emperor’s Book’s Spirit, speaking to you!"
Just as Mu Jinyu kept guessing, the chilling voice sounded again within his mind.
And the other party didn’t hide their identity, revealing it directly.
"Earth Emperor’s... Book’s Spirit?!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Jinyu’s expression changed involuntarily, causing a storm of astonishment in his heart.
He certainly knew that when a Magic Treasure reaches the level of a Heaven-reaching Spiritual Treasure, an Artifact Spirit exists.
But in the past, the Heaven-reaching Spiritual Treasures on Earth, the Divine Weapons, Life and Death Divine Weapons used later, and even the Sacred Quietus Blade, they all had Artifact Spirits.
The Artifact Spirit of the Quietus Blade had the most spiritual nature and could even communicate briefly with him!
But...
They only communicated like cats and dogs with people, unable to speak.
And now, the Earth Emperor’s Book’s Spirit could actually speak human language?
This seemed too outrageous!
When Mu Jinyu acquired the Earth Emperor’s Tome, he had tried to communicate with its Artifact Spirit but failed.
Making him think, the Earth Emperor’s Book’s Spirit was either in a sleep state or that he had to completely refine the Earth Emperor’s Tome before he could communicate with its Artifact Spirit.
Unexpectedly, the Earth Emperor’s Book’s Spirit neither fell asleep nor required him to completely refine the treasure to communicate.
It had always been able to communicate, it simply disdain interacting with him!
Mu Jinyu instantly formed such a thought.
Then felt it’s quite reasonable.
After all, the Earth Emperor’s Tome is the Earth Emperor’s supreme treasure, an Ancestral Weapon, and his cultivation is so low, it’s already generous to let him borrow part of its power.
Why would the Artifact Spirit be willing to engage with him?
It’s also an existence at the level of an ancestor!
"You... you are the Earth Emperor’s Book’s Spirit?"
Mu Jinyu uttered in a tone full of surprise, smiling bitterly, "I apologize for causing the elder to laugh at me..."
He knew, given the status of the Earth Emperor’s Tome, why would it willingly dwell on someone as insignificant as himself?
Probably due to the last wishes of the Earth Emperor’s remains, forcing it to follow him, it reluctantly stuck around.
Otherwise, with its ability to speak and formidable strength, it could go anywhere it wanted!
Does it need to stay by his side?
"Hehe..."
Hearing Mu Jinyu’s words, the chilling voice chuckled coldly, without saying much.
Then it directly said, "Do you know why before, I never communicated with you?"
Mu Jinyu said, "The junior’s skills are inferior, it’s natural that the elder didn’t want to bother with me."
The Artifact Spirit said, "If I didn’t want to bother with you, then why am I talking to you now?"
After a brief pause, the Artifact Spirit continued, "Previously, I didn’t communicate with you, entirely because I wanted to first see what your character is like, understand you more, and learn about this world thousands of years later too!!"
"In the end, it made me very disappointed..."
Upon saying this, it sighed gently, filled with disappointment and helplessness, and a hint of confusion!
Making Mu Jinyu wonder whether he disappointed it, or if it was this world...
But judging from that bit of confusion, it was probably the changes in the Canglan Realm, making it hard to accept the current plight of the Human Race?
After the Artifact Spirit sighed quietly, it continued, "I didn’t expect that tens of thousands of years later, the environment of this world would have become so dire, the Human Race’s survival also becoming tough, even relying on those Foreign Races for cultivation!"
"This makes me furious to madness, wishing to destroy all those Foreign Races!"
"Unfortunately, without a master, I can’t achieve that..." the Artifact Spirit said with some self-mockery.
"And at my angriest moment, I found that you were actually cultivating the Humanity Path Sutra, following the path the Human Emperor took!"
"Among those you’ve encountered, none was pure-blooded human!"
"In comparison, you might barely be considered a pureblooded human, also having the Blood-Colored Mirroring Rivers and Mountains phenomenon, that’s pretty good!"
"Hence, I didn’t directly leave you, choosing to continue observing you!"
"Sadly, your character makes me somewhat dislike it!"
Saying this, the Artifact Spirit’s tone inevitably carried a hint of depression.
"Uh..."
Mu Jinyu didn’t understand what aspect of his character the opponent disliked, only managed a few bitter laughs.
The Artifact Spirit directly said, "You sometimes show indecisiveness and extreme cautiousness, this leaves me speechless."
"Reflect on how many times you’ve used the Earth Emperor’s Tome since coming out of the Earth Emperor’s ruin?"
"Each time you use the Earth Emperor’s Tome, it’s under the assurance of not being discovered by anyone, saying it nicely is being cautious, harshly it’s being timid!"
"Is it necessary to be this scared? So what if people find out?"
"Just because you worry about possessing a supreme treasure being discovered, you have to endure that humiliation?"
"That’s a coward’s mindset!"
As it spoke, the Artifact Spirit’s tone held a bit more praise, "You did well this time, daring to take me out to defeat enemies, not fearing being seen by those people, that’s the right way!"
"Facing danger while being restrained, what kind of behavior is that?"
"That’s why I initially didn’t plan to bother with you, but your actions made me unable to hold back from stepping out to praise you, hoping you’d keep this up!"
Listening to the Earth Emperor’s Book’s Spirit, Mu Jinyu couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
He felt this spirit had quite a lot to say?
Probably due to being pent up for tens of thousands of years without anyone to speak to.
And initially, when he met it in the Abandoned Stone Palace, it probably wanted to talk to him but had to maintain the dignity and nobility of the Earth Emperor’s Tome, thus holding back from speaking.
But now, it couldn’t resist anymore, finding an excuse to speak with him.
However, this is good!
If this Artifact Spirit can communicate, perhaps he can also borrow more of its strength.
He will soon return to Dongyue Mansion to hunt other Chrono Light Realm superhumans, giving him more confidence.
