Chapter 877: Profound Pearl of Life



The source of all malice and murderous intentions within the upper half tree region came from a single fist-sized, blood-glowing pearl.

Goddess Thyia's inheritance appeared to be just this single item.

However, this single item also didn't seem to be related to Goddess Thyia at a glance, either. After all, the suffocating pressure of malice and murderous intentions emanating from the blood-glowing pearl had nothing to do with life or death.

Rather, it was closer to blood and slaughter, which were parts of Asura.

Nevertheless, despite the overwhelming pressure, which could suffocate a regular person to death, Vaan steadily approached the blood-glowing pearl, unfazed and unrestrained.

For some reason, Vaan felt a sense of familiarity with the endless malice and murderous intentions oozing out of the blood-glowing pearl.

Once he pondered over it, he quickly realized why he would have such a feeling. It was related to his original incarnation, Valefor Raphna.

However, Vaan also found this strange.

How could Goddess Thyia's inheritance be solely related to Valefor Raphna? Was there nothing about the blood-glowing pearl that was related to Goddess Thyia?

Nevertheless, all of Vaan's doubts were answered the moment he picked up the blood- glowing pearl.

What he picked up wasn't some ordinary fist-sized pearl but an entire galaxy.

There was such a vast expanse of space within the blood-glowing pearl that even he could not tell how big it actually was at first glance.

At the same time, Vaan understood the blood-glowing pearl was originally pure white. It only had a crimson glow due to the rich blood and slaughter energy stored within it.

When Vaan's consciousness searched beyond the sea of blood and slaughter energy, he found an even deeper and more unfathomable sea of life energy.

The sea of blood and slaughter energy had completely hidden such a seemingly bottomless sea of life energy.

"Do you know what this is?" Vaan asked the Divine Lord Death Eater, assuming it knew the

answer.

"Lord, that is the Profound Pearl of Life, a True Divinity-rank treasure. It was said to have been refined from the essence of an unborn chaosverse, containing an endless supply of life energy," the Divine Lord Death Eater explained indifferently.

"Oh?" Vaan uttered with interest before further asking, "What can it do? Do you know?"

"The Profound Pearl of Life is said to be capable of granting its wielder eternal life, even if the wielder is only a low-level mortal. It can also purify impure or toxic substances, enhance and evolve the qualities of magical plants, refine medicine, replenish life force, and accelerate healing," the Divine Lord Death Eater answered.

Vaan's lips couldn't help but twitch slightly after hearing so many abilities.

Considering the Profound Pearl of Life was graded as a True Divinity-rank treasure, its various abilities had to be very powerful as well.

"As long as the wielder isn't killed instantly, the Profound Pearl of Life can help the wielder recover from any wound, illness, and disabilities," the Divine Lord Death Eater added.

Indeed, the Divine Lord Death Eater answered Vaan's suspicion.

However, Vaan already had the Everlasting Blood Refining Art and extremely powerful regenerative abilities. Thus, even without the Profound Pearl of Life, he wouldn't have to worry about any wounds or disabilities.

As such, the Profound Pearl of Life was only supplementary in this aspect and not essential.

It was the other abilities that drew his curiosity.

That said, such a powerful treasure shouldn't be unknown, and considering Goddess Thyia's fame, wouldn't many beings have known about her Profound Pearl of Life?

If word of it being in his possession ever got out, the sea of greed attracted by it would definitely drown him to death.

Although he could use the Divine Lord Death Eater and the army of Death Eaters to protect it, such an option wasn't a foolproofed solution.

After all, a True Divinity-rank treasure wouldn't just attract Divine Lords. There could be Divine Kings and Divine Emperors. Even True Divinities would be interested in such a heavenly treasure.

As such, the strength of the Death Eaters wasn't enough to protect him.

The Lord of Chaos wouldn't let him pick up such a hot potato without adding some insurance to offset the risks, would he?

There had to be more to Goddess Thyia's inheritance.

Vaan believed he must have missed something. As such, he sent his consciousness into the Profound Pearl of Life to look for the answer.

However, he didn't search the bottomless sea of life energy but the rich sea of blood and slaughter energy. There must be a bigger reason for the Lord of Chaos storing it inside the Profound Pearl of Life.

That said, it was much more difficult to navigate through the sea of blood and slaughter energy than the bottomless sea of life energy. In fact, the two seas of energy were almost polar opposites like fire and ice.

The sea of life energy was calm, peaceful, and passive, like swimming through clear water.

On the other hand, the sea of blood and slaughter energy was violent, thick, and sticky, like walking through mud. It was like there were billions of souls trapped within, and they were trying to drag his consciousness deeper within for eternity.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Nevertheless, Vaan's consciousness didn't fight back the dragging force. Vaan allowed himself to be pulled into the depths of the blood and slaughter energy.

The deeper he sunk inside, the more familiarity he felt with the sea of blood and slaughter

energy.

Eventually, Vaan came to a realization. He finally understood why he found the sea of blood and slaughter energy familiar and how it was related to Valefor.

If Valefor's memories had been sealed inside his soul, then Valefor's cultivation was sealed within the Profound Pearl of Life. The sea of blood and slaughter energy was Valefor's original cultivation.

The Lord of Chaos may have reversed time and removed the original timeline, but he did not erase Valefor's existence or accomplishments.

Even if Valefor wasn't who the Lord of Chaos wanted his older brother to be, he was still Varuna's incarnation, his older brother. As such, the Lord of Chaos would never erase all traces

of Valefor's existence.

As Vaan learned more about the Lord of Chaos's thoughts and feelings, he gradually had an idea of the Lord of Chaos's intention.
