The Book Soul Chronicles: Godslayer

As soon as Yu Bingwen entered the secret realm, he found that the entrance to his secret realm was in mid-air, and he happened to encounter a fierce battle. The battle wave hit him directly, and although he had activated his protective shield, he was still blown away.

Even though his cultivation level at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm was suppressed, he still couldn't withstand it. One can imagine how strong this attack was. It was probably the strongest attack of the Nascent Soul stage. Otherwise, even though he didn't have time to unleash his attack, he wouldn't have been blown away by the aftershock.

As he was retreating, Yu Bingwen saw a large tree behind him and was about to use it to stop when a secret realm entrance appeared right behind him.

A figure emerged from within, and before either side could react, Yu Bingwen crashed into the other, using him as leverage. He was already flying backward from the impact, and with the continued shockwave, he had been thrown quite a distance. However, the person who crashed into him pushed him, using the momentum to stop him, while Yu Bingwen himself flew backward even faster.

A loud thud was heard as the person crashed into a large tree behind them, then fell to the ground. The sound was clearly painful.

Yu Bingwen felt a little embarrassed, after all, he didn't know whether the person behind him was friend or foe, and he had to prioritize his own safety.

He flew over and landed steadily on the ground in front of the man. Although the man's back looked somewhat familiar, he still wanted to confirm it, after all, it was too unbelievable.

"Are you OK!"

Yu Bingwen reached out to the person lying on the ground and asked a question, when he heard a familiar voice.

"Brother Li, now I finally understand why you didn't want to catch me just now. I guess you couldn't have caught me."

Then, the man raised his head, spat out dirt, and mumbled, "It's okay, I'm fine, I'm still breathing, I'm not completely cold yet! It's just that this way of meeting is a bit exhausting."

Yu Bingwen was completely petrified. How could there be such a coincidence in the world? Was he the son of the god of luck? He could make things happen just by speaking.

Yu Bingwen immediately withdrew his outstretched hand instinctively. Just then, Hao Jujin thought the other party was going to help him, so he put his hand on it without any precaution. He didn't expect the other party to pull back, and he lost his grip and fell back to the ground, causing secondary injury.

"Ah~ Brother Li, why did you take your hand back?"

"Oh, sorry! It's just a habit."

"Don't help me up, I'm already dead."

Yu Bingwen finished reminiscing, his expression indescribable.

"Oh well, meeting is an inescapable cause and effect. Since we can't avoid it, let's face it head-on!" Yu Bingwen sighed inwardly.

Although they had only known each other for a few hours and had met twice, this would seem like an insult to their intelligence anywhere. Who would believe such an absurd experience?

Who knows? The two met only a few hours ago and acted like old friends. The key is that one of them even has a fake name, and the other is simply the world's most accurate "jinx," whatever he says comes true.

Yu Bingwen had always felt that he had forgotten something, and then he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten the most crucial thing. It was all Hao Jujin's fault. As soon as Hao Jujin appeared, things started to go very strangely, and he even forgot such an important thing.

Yu Bingwen looked toward the center of the explosion and saw that the surrounding area was barren and devoid of vegetation. The central area had become a huge crater, with no bottom in sight, and his divine sense was obscured.

There seemed to be something inside, but the unknown was always dangerous. Yu Bingwen frowned and spread his divine sense to probe further.

After a while, his expression became a little strange, but then he returned to normal.

He discovered that his divine sense would be blocked if it got close to the crater from the explosion, but not if it was further away. He looked around the area and found a large, dull sword.

He recognized the aura above; it belonged to Yu Kuangdao, who had ambushed him outside the secret realm. This sword was his natal magic weapon. When its master died, a natal magic weapon with a spirit would seal itself, while one without sentience would become dull and lifeless, essentially rendered useless.

Yu Bingwen couldn't help but sigh at the unpredictability of the cultivation world. Just a moment ago, someone was shouting outside, and the next second, there was no trace of him. It seemed that, as Hao Jujin had said, both sides had perished together.

Just as Yu Bingwen came to his senses, he saw that Hao Jujin had gotten up from the ground at some point and was limping quickly toward the pit.

Seeing his posture, Yu Bingwen didn't know whether to laugh or feel sorry for him for a second. In the end, he asked.

"What are you going to do, Fellow Daoist Hao? That place is isolated from divine sense, it's probably dangerous."

Hao Jujin turned around, a mysterious smile on his face, and said, "I have a feeling there's something good somewhere. Let's hurry and get it. There was such a commotion just now, someone should be here soon. We have to take it before they do. Brother Li, let's go!"

Seeing Hao Jujin's increasingly hurried movements and his urging tone, Yu Bingwen knew it might be something good, so he took him there and flew directly.

"Brother Li, that way."

"Here?"

"Yes, that's it."

"Are you kidding me? There's nothing here, and my divine sense can't detect it."

"Oh dear! Brother Li, what time is it? Why don't you still believe me? The thing is definitely down there."

Yu Bingwen looked at the spot Hao Jujin was pointing to, his brows furrowed. He hadn't noticed anything different about the place. However, with a "let's give it a try" attitude, he took out a shovel from his storage ring and started digging. The soil here was very soft, and he could dig it down in one go without damaging the things below.

After shoveling for a short while, an oval-shaped, transparent stone appeared. Hao Jujin said hurriedly.

"Wait, this is it! This must be a good thing, Brother Li, you should keep it safe."

Yu Bingwen said in surprise, "Me? You found this, so the reason is yours."

Yu Bingwen calmly expressed his thoughts, his eyes revealing sincerity, without greed or hypocrisy.

"No, Brother Li, I have a feeling that this thing is your destiny. It will only be useful in your hands. In my hands, it is useless and has no value whatsoever."

"How can you be so sure that this is my opportunity and not yours?" Yu Bingwen felt that he was making excuses.

“Brother Li, I, Hao Jujin, am self-aware. It was already a stroke of luck that I was able to enter the secret realm. Moreover, my premonition tells me that meeting you is my destiny. This thing is definitely waiting for you. Please believe me and accept it! There will be many more spiritual treasures waiting for us later!”

Yu Bingwen thought for a moment and then agreed to accept it. He had just used "we," indicating that he wanted someone to protect him in the secret realm, and he was clearly the best choice. By agreeing to accept the gift, he meant that he agreed to travel with him. After all, one is obligated to accept gifts.

"Brother Li, don't worry! I'm known as the Treasure-Hunting Rat. I'll definitely lead you to plunder all the spiritual treasures in the entire secret realm."

Yu Bingwen fell silent. Indeed, this family was very lucky; they were like "human treasure-hunting rats," always managing to stumble upon good things wherever they went.
