Chapter 465: The Inheritance Appears
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Ancestor! There’s still a senior from the Blood Demon Clan here. This matter may not be hopeless yet!”
Long Aotian’s expression was icy as he gazed at the palace right before his eyes. After being silent for a long while, he slowly uttered in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Moreover! The White Jade Divine Elephant Clan’s strongest expert is merely a Saint Realm cultivator! Even if he obtained the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance, it would be impossible for him to rocket to prominence overnight! A petty Great Saint Realm cultivator facing two saint kings simultaneously, at best, he is nothing more than a slightly stronger ant. Most crucially, I am unconvinced! The World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance can only land in my hands!”
At this point, Long Aotian’s eyes gradually reddened. The aura of a peak-stage Quasi-Saint Realm expert violently erupted at this moment too.
To him, the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance was taboo.
At the same time, it was also the only way for him to cement his position as the number one prodigy of his generation.
Only by acquiring the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance could he continue lording over the Southern Region where ancient masters and prodigies were resurfacing!
Only with the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance could he trounce all outstanding talents of the world to stand at its apex.
Thus…he was unwilling to accept the closely-within-reach inheritance being s.n.a.t.c.hed by someone else just like that.
Even if it meant killing to seize the inheritance, he must have the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance for himself!
“Alas…” The Long family elder sighed helplessly upon hearing this. His face was full of resignation.
At the same time, within the World-Transcending Palace.
This was previously the cultivation abode personally built by the
World-Transcending Sword Master.
Externally, it merely resembled a palace but once inside, one would discover an entirely different world.
This cave was extremely vast. At a glance, it seemed neverending. Divine light gushed everywhere. Billions of radiance cascaded down from the firmament, appearing like upside-down waterfalls suspended between heaven and earth.
“This place is practically a miniature world.” Su Chen exclaimed in surprise.
In fact, the entire Chaotic Sea Star Region was originally a small world that the World-Transcending Sword Master had completely concealed with his great divine power.
Without the need for any inheritors, it would usually be very difficult for ordinary people to set foot in the Chaotic Sea Star Region. This was truly inconceivable.
Not far away, eight thick divine bronze pillars pierced through the sky. At least tens of thousands of miles tall, they were extremely st.u.r.dy, akin to supporting pillars shouldering up the firmament which gave off an archaic aura.
At the end of the divine pillars was a stone platform. Strands of black-and-white power of reincarnation surged violently within, illuminating the surrounding darkness brilliantly and rendering everything clearly visible.
“This is… The Power of Reincarnation?” Ye Ruxue’s red lips parted slightly as surprise flashed across her charming face.
In her previous life, she knew the new World-Transcending Sword Master was adept at the Dao of Reincarnation and had witnessed his methods before as well.
And now, seeing such power again after so many years still left her thoroughly shaken. If she could comprehend such power of laws, there would barely be anyone at the same level capable of opposing her.
“I wonder how I can obtain the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance…” Ye Ruxue murmured softly.
However, before she could complete her words…
Two distinct roars resounded.
At this moment, from the high platform, an endless surge of black radiance gushed out like tidal waters, instantly enveloping heaven and earth.
A colossal black dragon spiraled up as its dragon might solidified to an extreme degree. Its scales were dense with interwoven divine patterns emanating a spiritual aura. If not scrutinized carefully, it would be easy to mistake it for a living creature.
On the other side, boundless white splendor transformed into a spreading-winged divine phoenix soaring on high. Its feathers were translucent like divine swords, blanketing thousands of miles the instant it unfurled its wings.
Its wings were akin to clouds hanging from the firmament. Its cries pierced through the clouds, sharp and clear. The black True Dragon was unwilling to be outshone. Standing tall, its dragon roar was like a tolling yellow bell, triggering thousands of gigantic waves resonating in s.p.a.ce.
“Hiss! 1 didn’t expect the Power of Reincarnation here to have already evolved to such an unfathomable stage…” Ye Ruxue’s pupils contracted abruptly.
She focused her gaze between the True Dragon and Divine Phoenix. In that s.p.a.ce, a portal emerged as if it led to an unknown era.
An extremely minute figure walked out from within. This figure was no more than eight feet tall. Compared to the gargantuan True Dragon and Divine Phoenix spanning thousands of miles, it could be considered exceptionally tiny.
Yet at this moment, whether the True Dragon or Divine Phoenix, their auras dimmed greatly before this pint-sized figure, completely incomparable. As he casually strode forth, in an instant, he became the master of this world.
“Is this…the World-Transcending Sword Master?” Su Chen’s eyebrows raised slightly when he saw the figure before him, feeling somewhat astonished.
From the current spectacle, it wasn’t difficult to infer that the true World-Transcending Sword Master’s strength had long attained the True Immortal Realm.
No! Perhaps…he surpa.s.sed even that!
However, what puzzled Su Chen was – how did an existence of such towering might meet his downfall in the end. What appeared now was merely a projection of him. Even his memories probably did not carry much.
“No, why does it feel somewhat peculiar?” Su Chen muttered while observing the projection.
While only a projection, that figure’s body brimmed with an extremely thriving aura of life, like a blazing furnace tranquilly standing there eternally.
This person was dressed in a yellow robe adorned with patterns resembling real dragons, exuding an aura of prosperity and jade-like grace. At first glance, he resembled an adolescent br.i.m.m.i.n.g with heroic spirit, peering down on everything with sharp eyes.
Yet upon closer inspection, he also resembled a middle-aged man with extremely profound eyes that betrayed the vicissitudes of time, giving the impression that he had existed for hundreds of millions of years.
Ultimately, however, he exuded the decaying aura of an old man nearing death, as if a gust of wind could instantaneously topple him over. It was downright bizarre for such contrary impressions to simultaneously manifest in one person.
“What exactly is going on?” Su Chen frowned, mumbling softly.
“Hahaha… Born to die, reborn through death! Despite not having stepped into the cycle of reincarnation yourself, such an experience allows you to comprehend a portion of its primordial origin. An existence like you is truly rare throughout the ages. At the very least, 1 have never seen your like before..”
