Chapter 783 - 127: Moon Phase Fragment Information

After enhancing Stabbing Immortal and Chi You, Shen Fei paused the enhancement process, primarily because there weren’t many slots left, and he needed to enhance the Summoned Beast, like True Martial, for better defense in battles.

However, Summoned Beasts like Light God, Kunpengzi, and Moon God inherently have fewer slots, and they will need to be prioritized in the future, or else they will soon lag behind.

Therefore, Shen Fei planned to look for alternative methods of enhancement before deciding on the next steps.

The enhancements of Chi You and Stabbing Immortal would also enable them to advance toward the remaining Six Great Abysses, specifically targeting those profound immortals for slaying and enhancing using the abilities of the God Master.

"The profound immortals of the Shadow Abyss might suit Stabbing Immortal well. Over in South Pole Heaven, there’s also a Dark Abyss that seems similar to Moon God’s path, and profound immortals from the Divine Court of Light can also be considered as hunting targets..."

Shen Fei mused, contemplating that the Abyss needed to be cleared out continuously. Even if the nature of the Abysses might not suit many of the Summoned Beasts, their Grotto Heavens could serve as materials for exchange.

For Shen Fei, the Abyss and Void Battlefield were inexhaustible treasures, especially now that he could slay profound immortals like slaughtering dogs.

Unless there were two or more Golden Immortals ambushing him simultaneously.

"Currently, the most likely places are over at Moon God and Light God..." Shen Fei estimated; Moon God was missing a particular type, and the Moon God Hall undoubtedly had information, possibly including True Immortals and profound immortals, even if they were hidden.

As for the Light God, it goes without saying—by slaying two profound immortals, the God Master could grant enough to the Light God, or directly devouring similar Grotto Heavens wasn’t that difficult.

"Artemis, it looks like I’ll need to seek her out again!"

...

South Pole Heaven.

Shen Fei’s figure appeared without warning in a city carved from millions of years of Cold Moon Cold Jade, where many cultivators practiced Moonlight.

At the center.

There was a grand hall, one of the sub-palaces of the Moon God Hall.

It was also the current residence of Artemis, perpetually shrouded in a cold silver glow of moonlight.

Having already received the message, Artemis was waiting.

The palace doors silently opened, moonlight flowed like mercury.

Artemis’s figure appeared within the door, still cold and aloof, draped in a misty moon veil, holding an ancient golden bow.

Yet, in those eyes reflecting the moon’s shadow, upon meeting Shen Fei, there was a flicker of complex emotions, mostly long-suppressed resentment.

"Honored Shen Tianjiao, your visit brings glory to the Moon God Hall."

Artemis’s voice was like ice beads falling on jade plates, crisp yet laced with a deep estrangement, "More illustrious than a decade ago. For what reason, today, master?"

She deliberately stressed "a decade ago," under her cold tone was undisguisable resentment.

Solely having herself visit him, while Shen Fei never visited the Moon God Hall, not even seeking her out before leaving South Pole Heaven.

All done through special communication methods.

Beside her, Kerke, dressed in a similar Moon God Priest’s robe, couldn’t help but say, "You’ve been in the limelight lately, heard you and the Human Emperor Palace along with Gouchen Heaven flattened another Abyss."

The incidents of the Rotting Abyss had naturally spread throughout the Dao Realm.

And Artemis, who always paid attention to Shen Fei’s movements, had heard he made a great contribution in the campaign against the Rotting Abyss.

Shen Fei rubbed his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed.

He still held a skeptical attitude towards the events left in ’Ancient Greece,’ naturally reluctant to contact Artemis and Mount Olympus.

Artemis coldly snorted, "Speak, no visit for no reason, you surely won’t seek me without a matter!"

Shen Fei said, "I need Moon Phase Fragments, especially the Crescent or New Moon types. Does the Moon God Hall possess any?"

Artemis glared at Shen Fei, knowing he wouldn’t come seeking her without a reason.

"Fragments... The Moon God Hall does indeed have some. The ’Cold Soul Proufound Immortal’ possesses an extremely valuable ’New Moon Fragment’."

Shen Fei’s eyes flickered, signaling her to continue.

"However, this item is not something easily traded."

Artemis spoke heavily, "The Cold Soul Profound Immortal is stationed on the front lines of South Pole Heaven, guarding a key node of the ’Moon Eclipse Abyss.’

The New Moon Fragment has fused with her own Moonlight Cave Heaven, turning into a ’New Moon Cold Soul Pearl.’ It is the core of suppressing the Abyssal Demon Qi of the Moon Eclipse Abyss and maintaining the seal!

Should she fall, and the New Moon Pearl be detached, not only would the Moon God Hall immediately notice and investigate, but the already unstable seal node of the ’Moon Eclipse Abyss’ due to Abyss invasion would inevitably collapse! By then, the Dark Abyss Demon Tide would use this as a breach to engulf a portion of South Pole Heaven, with dire consequences."

She paused, adding, "Furthermore, the Moon Phase Domain has its limits. Pure Moon Phase Fragments can at most elevate a Cave Heaven to the Golden Immortal level; beyond that, one must seek other ways, integrating more fundamental Taiyin or Time Origins to achieve a breakthrough."

"This... is also recorded within the Moon God Hall."

Shen Fei slightly frowned, as he required Moon God to ascend to profound immortal, and the Golden Immortal level sufficed for now.

But the identity of the Cold Soul Profound Immortal and the role of the fragment posed real challenges.

Previously, with the Haoyue Immortal, Artemis intervened, but this Cold Soul Profound Immortal seemed to resist the Abyss.

Bearing no grievance against him.

Artemis shifted her tone, revealing a key piece of information: "If you truly seek materials for Moon God’s promotion, it might not be necessary to forcibly seize the New Moon Fragment. I do know an alternative, possibly more feasible and... of greater value."

"Speak." Shen Fei said succinctly.

"Speak, speak, speak, at least provide some quid pro quo first." A slight discontent flashed across Artemis’s stunning face, as this was truly a matter of principle.

"What do you need me to do?"

Shen Fei asked.

Artemis glared at Shen Fei, "No need, no need!"

This guy really disregards past bonds!

"In the depths of the Dark Abyss lies an ancient Golden Immortal-level Demon Lord, named ’Dark Moon.’" Artemis’s tone carried a hint of caution, "This demon is an anomaly nurtured by the Dark Abyss Origin, inherently capable of devouring and merging Moonlight Power.

Its Golden Immortal Dao Source is composed of countless Moon Phase Fragments it devoured, even small-scale Moonlight Cave Heavens, refined into a ’Ten Thousand Devouring Dark Moon!’ This item contains chaotic yet vast Lunar Origin fused with the Darkness and Devouring traits of the Dark Abyss."

She continued, "By slaying this fiend and seizing its ’Ten Thousand Devouring Dark Moon,’ using it as a base, paired with secret techniques for refining and purifying, it can not only replace the New Moon Fragment to aid Moon God’s Cave Heaven advance to profound immortal.

But could also unlock new paths for Moon God’s Moonlight Dao, with potential far surpassing a single Moon Phase Fragment! Even... touching the Taiyin Origin in the future might not be impossible."

"Dark Moon... Ten Thousand Devouring Dark Moon..." Shen Fei repeated softly.

Slay an Abyss Golden Immortal?

Now that Chi You, Stabbing Immortal, and others have been strengthened, hunting a Dark Abyss Golden Immortal, though risky, offers impressive rewards!

Not only solving the issue of Moon God’s advancement, but it would also unexpectedly enhance Moon God’s potential.

"Thanks. If there’s anything in the future, feel free to contact me directly."

"Just waiting for your word." Artemis’s face showed a slight smile, and Kerke quietly said, "I want to visit the Jasper Pool to play with them."

"Sure, but they might be going to the Abyss soon."
