The Demon with Holy Radiance

"However, when it comes to fusing with a complete Moon Forbidden Artifact, the difficulty is directly related to the grade of the Forbidden Artifact Fragment you've already integrated.

You are aware of this, I presume?"

The grades of Forbidden Artifact Fragments fused at the Zombie God Realm are divided into four tiers based on their degree of completeness: Upper, Middle, and Lower Grades, plus Top Grade.

The lowest is the Lower Grade Forbidden Artifact Fragment, which means it is the most incomplete.

And the Top Grade Forbidden Artifact Fragment is the most complete, with the fewest missing parts.

Yang An understood this point after hearing Forbidden Calamity's explanation and nodded.

"After the Central Continent was sealed off, certain changes in the world have made Top Grade Forbidden Artifact Fragments nearly impossible to find. Even Upper Grade Forbidden Artifact Fragments are exceedingly rare. As a result, in the ages since the Central Continent's closure, fewer and fewer Cultivators and Demon Fiends have been able to fuse a Moon Forbidden Artifact and break through to the Insect Dao.

That's why the few Insect Dao experts with Moon Forbidden Artifacts who still exist today are basically all holdovers from a previous era."

"To fuse a Moon Forbidden Artifact, you first need to have complete control and understanding of your own Power of Rules. Only then can you sense the presence of the other missing pieces through the fragment you've already integrated."

Forbidden Calamity wasn't being coy, which Yang An appreciated. However, the method he described was no different from what Huan and the Workshop Master had told him.

It all came down to using one's integrated Forbidden Artifact Fragment to receive guidance and sense the missing pieces.

But he didn't explain *how* to do it, perhaps because it couldn't be described in words. This left Yang An still completely in the dark.

He had tried. Even though his integrated Forbidden Artifact Fragment was the optimal Top Grade, allowing him to manipulate Sunlight and even transform all the Techniques he had mastered into that same light source, he could make this light perform countless transformations within a controllable range, making it seem omnipotent.

But as for how to use his own Forbidden Artifact Fragment to sense the others, he hadn't found a way.

Failing to get the answer he desperately sought from Forbidden Calamity, Yang An couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment. It seemed he would have to figure it out on his own after all, but he was running out of time.

Just as Yang An was about to take his leave and try on his own, Forbidden Calamity's voice sounded once more.

"Although I cannot put the process into words, I still retain some of the power of my Forbidden Artifact Fragment. Perhaps I can assist you, Donor. Consider it compensation for failing to fulfill our promise in a timely manner."

The deal they had agreed upon couldn't be fulfilled due to the conflict between Great Virtue Temple and the Golden Thread Pavilion. Feeling apologetic, Forbidden Calamity proactively offered to help Yang An.

Yang An was stunned.

"Master, you can help me?"

He recalled Forbidden Calamity mentioning that his Moon Forbidden Artifact was called "Vitality Zen," which could seek out a thread of possibility from anything and everything. Suddenly, he understood what Forbidden Calamity meant.

From Forbidden Calamity's words, it also seemed likely that the reason his strength was a shadow of its former self was because his own Forbidden Artifact was incomplete, causing him to fall from the Insect Dao to the Zombie God Realm.

Without another word, Forbidden Calamity made Liu Feifei rise from the ground. The Bronze Cauldron descended onto her head, and a green smoke began to burn within it.

A look of agony appeared on Liu Feifei's face, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.

The Bronze Cauldron seemed to root itself in her body, extracting something from within.

A short while later, as the green smoke in the Bronze Cauldron burned away, black patterns coursed out from the meridians throughout Liu Feifei's limbs and torso, extending all the way up into the cauldron on her head.

Yang An immediately caught the thick, metallic scent of blood. It gathered within the cauldron, coalescing into a THUMP-THUMPING Heart.

Liu Feifei collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath. Her complexion was ashen, as if her life force was rapidly draining away and she was about to become a corpse. But she remained in a dazed, muddled state, seemingly unaware of what had just happened.

"With this, you can temporarily wield my Power of Rules, Donor. But you will only have two opportunities. After that, I will retrieve it and return it to Donor Liu."

"Furthermore, there is a price for using this item. Whether you succeed or fail, you will be plagued by misfortune for a period of time afterward."

Forbidden Calamity's voice came again, but it was noticeably different from before, sounding equally weak.

Threads of blood spilled from the Bronze Cauldron, draping down to envelop Liu Feifei's body and temporarily stabilize her aura.

The beating Heart fell into Yang An's hands, and an information box immediately appeared before his eyes.

[Liu Feifei's Heart]: Extracted from the body of Liu Feifei, who is fused with the Forbidden Calamity Cauldron. Allows the user to wield the Forbidden Calamity Cauldron up to two times for a short period.

Usage Cost: Exceeding the usage limit will cause this item to lose its vitality, resulting in the original owner's death. The Forbidden Calamity Cauldron will also lose its source of sustenance and be destroyed. Wielding the Forbidden Calamity Cauldron will cause the user to be plagued by misfortune for a short time.

Status: Purification available!

Forbidden Calamity said nothing more. If Yang An hadn't seen the contents of the information box, he would have had no idea that exceeding the usage limit carried such dire consequences.

Liu Feifei would die, and the Forbidden Calamity Cauldron would be destroyed as a result.

This meant that Forbidden Calamity was placing his complete trust in him, lending him the Forbidden Calamity Cauldron. He was essentially putting his very existence into Yang An's hands to help him seek out that faint glimmer of possibility.

If not for the fact that this cost could be eliminated through Purification, Yang An might not have dared to use the item, afraid he would betray Forbidden Calamity's trust.
