The Weapon Child reached out his hand.
The fragment rose into the air and landed in his palm.
"I need to verify that it's genuine."
The Weapon Child studied the fragment and began chanting a spell.
The Moon God looked at Gu Qingshan and asked, "Your Majesty, weren't you resting? How did you end up crossing paths with an Asura?"
"There was too much Corpse Qi here. I sensed it, so I came to take a look," Gu Qingshan said.
"Corpse Qi?"
"That's right. This place used to be a campsite."
Gu Qingshan recounted what had just happened.
By then, the Weapon Child had finished inspecting the fragment. He turned to the two of them and said, "It's genuine."
The Moon God smiled. "Asura are already rare in the Land of Eternal Chaos. Who'd have thought King of Pain would meet a trainee and even earn his recognition. Well, well."
"That's right. An Asura would never leave a fragment in your hands unless he recognized you," the Weapon Child said.
"What's a trainee?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"An expert who's just earned their clan's recognition. That gives them a chance to come here and seek an inheritance," the Moon God explained.
"The Asura left their inheritance in the Land of Eternal Chaos?" Gu Qingshan asked in surprise.
"That's right. The secrets of the Six Paths of Reincarnation are here, too," the Moon God said.
Gu Qingshan opened his mouth, then fell silent.
"Doesn't it seem unbelievable? They don't even station a large force here, and they hardly pay this place any attention," the Moon God said, as if he understood.
"Yeah," Gu Qingshan said.
The Weapon Child said, "From ancient times to the present, the most anyone's ever gained is the Asura's basic inheritance. That's as far as anyone has gotten.
