Chapter 898: Chapter 898: The Spirit Base That Cannot Be Activated
Fortunately, Demon Bone had thick enough skin, merely feeling slightly uneasy before quickly dismissing it from his mind.
Compared to the Qingluan Hairpin, a bit of empty reputation counted for nothing.
Demon Bone, preoccupied, held the hairpin, wanting to activate it to see if it had truly been restored.
However, no matter how much strength Demon Bone channeled into it, the hairpin showed no response, as if it were a dead object.
Demon Bone’s expression fluctuated, and he looked up at Lin Shen.
A Spirit Base is ownerless by nature, theoretically any sufficiently ranked individual should be able to activate it unless it is a specially unique Spirit Base that requires a specific Attribute to do so.
...
The Qingluan Hairpin was not among these exceptions—it was a common sound series within the Heaven Law Spirit Base, so it should have been easy to activate.
Demon Bone tried several more times, but the hairpin still showed no response, lacking any Law Fluctuation and spirituality, as though it were just an ordinary Green Crystal hairpin.
“It’s impossible, that kid is just a Nirvana Being, and he could activate the hairpin; there’s no reason I can’t.” Demon Bone stubbornly continued to force his strength into the hairpin.
Suddenly, the hairpin emitted a piercing azure sound, and Demon Bone’s hand that was holding the hairpin was suddenly shaken loose, his palm split open, oozing fresh blood.
The hairpin transformed into a beam of azure light and flew in front of Lin Shen, where it quietly hovered.
Lin Shen reached out and seized it in his hand.
“Demon Master, you better be careful not to damage this island,” Lin Shen said as he handed the hairpin back to Demon Bone.
Demon Bone’s face reddened slightly as he stared at Lin Shen, yet did not reach out to take it: “What did you do to it?”
The situation with the Qingluan Hairpin seemed to be one of recognition towards Lin Shen, a phenomenon rarely seen with Spirit Bases and more common with Life Bases, which are inherently loyal.
“Demon Master, what do you think I could have done to it?” Lin Shen asked with a smile.
Demon Bone was momentarily taken aback. Lin Shen, being a Nirvana Being, what could he possibly have done to an Immortal Spirit Base?
If it were the mysterious lady behind Lin Shen, it might be possible she tampered with the Immortal Spirit Base. After all, Lin Shen, as a Nirvana Being, theoretically shouldn’t even be able to activate an Immortal Spirit Base, what else could he do?
Yet, the hairpin clearly chose Lin Shen, leaving Demon Bone momentarily unable to comprehend the reason.
How could a being so closed off in spiritual intelligence, unable to even sense the Law, attract the hairpin’s favor?
“No matter what you did, I will tame my own object,” Demon Bone said as he grabbed the Qingluan Hairpin and turned to leave.
Lin Shen did not stop him, allowing Demon Bone to leave.

“Isn’t that hairpin an unusual Spirit Base, with very special Laws? Are you really going to let him take it?” Yan Ruyu spoke from behind Lin Shen.
“No harm, it originally belonged to him.” Lin Shen didn’t seem much concerned. He rather took the opportunity to test the Spirit Base repaired by the Law Array, to see if it could indeed be used by others.
Because of the particle sequence integration, the hairpin had significantly changed from its original state, even altering its inherent Law Power.
Lin Shen had already tried it out; only he could drive the hairpin using the Law Array, not even Yan Ruyu, the Dharma King, could forcibly operate it.
It would not be easy for Demon Bone to control it.
If the repaired hairpin’s Spirit Base couldn’t be used by others, then wouldn’t it mean that in the future Lin Shen could collect several heavily damaged Spirit Bases, repair them, and then use them for himself?
If he could find and repair a few damaged Dharma King Spirit Bases, that would truly be defying the heavens.
The key is these repaired Spirit Bases; he, just a Nirvana Level being, could use them, a trait not possessed by other Immortal Spirit Bases.
If it were a complete Immortal Spirit Base, even Lin Shen might not have been able to activate it.
Demon Bone brought the hairpin back to his abode and tried every possible means to activate it for his own use.
However, the hairpin was like the Life Base, resisting all his methods of activation; seeing that the hairpin was right in front of him yet unusable made Demon Bone’s eyes turn green with discomfort.
“What method did that kid use to repair the hairpin, and how did he change its form like this?” Demon Bone couldn’t understand it at all.
Being as knowledgeable as he was, he had never heard of such a thing.
Demon Bone refused to give up and tirelessly researched the hairpin, hoping to find a way to control it.
This object would greatly assist him in crossing the deadly calamity later; no one would easily give up on it.
While Lin Shen studied the Law Array, he waited for Tian Xin to wake up.
After a long wait, he saw Tian Xin suddenly leap up, land on the ground, and burst into a loud laughter, looking up at the sky, “I’ve comprehended it!”
“What have you comprehended?” Lin Shen asked curiously.
Tian Xin then restrained his laughter and proudly told Lin Shen, “I have comprehended the essence of the Law of Speed.”
“Congratulations,” Lin Shen sincerely congratulated him.
Although Tian Xin was not exactly a good man, he was truly loyal to his own people, but he just couldn’t get along well with Lin Shen, always finding him displeasing.
“Come on, let’s spar a bit. Although I can’t use the Law of Speed yet, I’ve gained some insights, and my skill has broken through its shackles. Let me show you how amazing I am,” Tian Xin, carried away by his pride, challenged Lin Shen.
“Alright,” Lin Shen also wanted to see how much Tian Xin’s level had improved after comprehending the Law of Speed.
Tian Xin’s figure suddenly moved with incredible speed, creating countless illusions of himself all around.
Snap!
Lin Shen threw a punch and directly knocked Tian Xin out of the air, making all the illusions vanish.
“Not bad, that’s progress,” Lin Shen nodded slightly; Tian Xin’s speed had indeed become faster, and his skills were significantly better than before. Even the top Nirvana Beings probably couldn’t match his speed.
Yet, such speed still seemed too slow in Lin Shen’s eyes.
Tian Xin stared blankly at Lin Shen, and after a long while, muttered resentfully, “You freak.”
Watching Tian Xin leave, Lin Shen also left with Yan Ruyu to continue studying the Law Array.
The next day, Lin Shen got up late for breakfast while everyone else had already gone to attend to their tasks; only Yan Ruyu accompanied him for breakfast.
While they were eating, they saw Tian Shangqing and Tian Jingyun walk in.
Since their last battle with Tian Ruodu, these two were completely detached from their past relations and had to stick with Lin Shen.
“Mr. Lin Shen, why don’t you find us some work to do? It’s too boring sitting around every day,” Tian Shangqing sat across from Lin Shen, picking up a pastry and speaking while he ate.
They called him Lord Lin, which Lin Shen couldn’t get used to. He strongly asked them to call him Lin Shen or Lin, but they didn’t dare, and, making a compromise like Yan Ruyu, they all called him Mr. Lin Shen.
Lin Shen thought to himself, “I myself am idle every day, not having any tasks to assign.”
“No rush, you guys just rest well for now; there will be important matters to entrust to you later,” Lin Shen wanted to pacify them for the time being.
While they were talking, they saw Demon Bone, with a dazed expression, walk in from outside, staring fixedly at Lin Shen.
