Through the divine light, a skeleton appeared before the eyes of the three.
Unlike a normal human skeleton, this one had eight arms growing from its body, vividly resembling an Eight-Armed Heavenly King.
Above the skeleton's head was a bead of chaotic color.
The boundless divine light that had previously emanated came from this bead.
And clutched in one of the skeleton's arms was a jade slip.
The jade slip emitted a faint fluorescence and was filled with the vicissitudes of time.
Most peculiar of all, a strand of silver-white flame burned in the skeleton's eye sockets, radiating an infinite chill.
It was as if this was not a flame at all, but an ice that could freeze everything.
However, Xu Chuan's feelings were different from theirs.
The moment he saw the silver-white flame, the True Sun Fire within Xu Chuan's body began to burn fiercely,
as if dry tinder had met a raging inferno.
Xu Chuan could feel the strong attraction the silver-white flame had for the True Sun Fire.
But Xu Chuan controlled himself.
It was not yet his time to act.
Since Han Feng dared to bring Lin Tian here,
he must have left some contingency plans.
He would wait for now, let Lin Tian and Qu Wu Shang go first to test the waters,
and then he would be the mantis behind the cicada, delivering a fatal blow!
Han Feng, seeing the skeleton and the items on it, also showed a look of remembrance.
But mingled with the remembrance was hatred and malice.
The reason he was besieged by so many Emperor Lords back then,
was not just because he had defected to the demon race, become a Human Demon, and wreaked havoc in the Xuan Tian.
In that era, there were many Human Demons.
He was not the only Human Demon at the Emperor Lord realm.
And yet, he was besieged by dozens of Emperor Lord realm powerhouses, unlike most others.
The reason for the siege was these three items!
When he was refining his puppets in the Eastern Domain, he accidentally discovered the resting place of a Fourth-Order Emperor Lord.
This incredible encounter made him ecstatic, as he had just broken through to the Emperor Lord realm with the power of the demon race. He felt it was his time to turn his fortunes around!
Even though he had become an Emperor Lord, he was not valued by the demon race at all. He was even looked down upon by most demons and bullied by other demon Emperor Lords.
And among the human race, he was a reviled figure.
Therefore, becoming a powerhouse and turning the tables had always been his goal.
And this resting place of the Fourth-Order Emperor Lord gave him hope of achieving that goal.
As long as he could obtain its inheritance, he could truly stand up.
However, Han Feng never expected that the thing he regarded as the ultimate opportunity would also bring him the peril of death.
He did indeed obtain these three inheritances left by the Fourth-Order Emperor Lord, and these inheritances could indeed help him become stronger.
But there was a prerequisite for all of this: the one who obtained the inheritance must be a human.
This realization plunged Han Feng into despair.
From the moment he defected to the demon race, he had been transformed into a demon.
From then on, he had lost the chance to inherit these three things.
It was equivalent to having a treasure mountain yet being unable to enter it.
And if that wasn't enough,
somehow the news of Han Feng possessing the inheritance of a Fourth-Order Emperor Lord leaked out.
This immediately attracted the covetous eyes of a large number of Emperor Lord realm powerhouses.
A Fourth-Order Emperor Lord!
A realm many people could never reach in their lifetime.
And now, an inheritance had appeared.
Whoever could obtain it would have a chance to advance further!
Under such temptation, who could resist?
Thus, an army of demon slayers composed of Emperor Lord realm cultivators emerged.
And their target was Han Feng, who possessed these three treasures.
In the end, Han Feng, under their siege, self-destructed his soul and died on the spot.
However, when Han Feng knew that escape was hopeless and death was certain, he had already made contingency plans.
Although they had killed Han Feng, they were ultimately unable to obtain those three treasures.
Han Feng's remnant soul seized the opportunity to escape, attached itself to the soul-nurturing jade, and waited for a chance to possess another body, be reborn, and cultivate the inheritance.
This was the origin of everything that was happening today.
"Master, are these the three treasures you mentioned? Treasures that can help me become a supreme expert?"
Lin Tian asked, swallowing his saliva, suppressing his greed.
Han Feng was also pulled back from his memories by Lin Tian's voice.
"That's right, hurry up and pick them up, I'll teach you how to use them!"
Han Feng nodded and said.
However, behind his benevolent demeanor lay endless killing intent.
As long as Lin Tian approached the skeleton, his possession would begin!
And Lin Tian was about to die!
Han Feng thought sinisterly.
"Great!"
Lin Tian rushed forward excitedly.
Faced with the temptation of such an opportunity, how could he hold back!
Even so, he did not lower his guard against Han Feng.
Turning to see Han Feng's remnant soul standing there, he felt somewhat at ease.
"It seems he won't make a move at this moment!"
Lin Tian thought to himself.
However, as soon as he entered the giant coffin and was about to touch the chaotic bead, a sudden change occurred.
The Han Feng skeleton, which had been dead for who knows how long, suddenly moved.
It lunged directly, the silver-white flames in its eyes burning even more intensely.
The skeleton's eight arms tightly embraced Lin Tian, trapping him.
This sudden change made Lin Tian somewhat panicked.
"Master, what's going on?"
"Why is this skeleton locking me up?"
He begged Han Feng for help.
Placing his hope of escape on Han Feng.
However.
What he didn't know was that the skeleton's sudden change was precisely controlled by Han Feng.
At this moment, he stopped pretending. His appearance transformed.
The Han Feng, who had been dressed in white with an ethereal demeanor, disappeared, replaced by a gaunt, fierce-looking, and cold-eyed old man.
He opened his mouth and looked at Lin Tian, cackling.
"Good disciple, don't be afraid, you'll be fine soon!"
However, with his appearance, even a three-year-old child would not believe his words!
Qu Wu Shang, hiding in the dark, saw this scene and looked somewhat excited.
"Here it comes, the most exciting part of this novel!"
He stared intently at everything before him, not missing a single detail.
For someone who loved reading novels, personally experiencing a famous scene was undoubtedly the best reward.
And at this moment, Qu Wu Shang was experiencing such a famous scene!
Filial piety between master and disciple, possession, and counter-killing.
"Master, what do you want to do?"
Lin Tian asked Han Feng fearfully.
He had guarded against everything, but in the end, he still fell for Han Feng's trap.
At this moment, he was restrained, like a fish on a chopping board.
"Heh heh, what do I want to do?"
"Of course, I want to possess your body!"
"Good disciple, don't worry, once I control your body, I will definitely fulfill your goal of becoming a supreme martial artist!"
Han Feng said to Lin Tian with an evil grin.
