"That is only natural. The Immortal Venerable is the King of Ten Thousand Immortals. If this humble boy is fortunate enough to inherit even a fraction of your legacy, it would be a blessing from three lifetimes!"
Su Han chuckled heartily.
This remark immediately made the man in front burst into laughter!
It was evident that this fellow was quite receptive to such flattery!
He then turned and appraised Su Han, "Hmm, not bad! You are teachable. Your judgment is excellent. To be frank, I am the one who has achieved the pinnacle of the immortal path over ten thousand years. They say there are no realms beyond the Emperor Realm, but only I have cultivated a 'state of mind' above the Emperor Realm!"
"The so-called state of mind is the fundamental essence of all things, allowing one to act as they please, where words become reality. Heh heh, with a casual remark, I can decree life or death a thousand miles away. Do you think that's impressive?"
Su Han's eyes widened immediately. This was the first time he had heard of such a powerful expert.
But it made sense.
An Emperor Realm expert was like mere refuse in the Qingyuan Immortal Manor, utterly incapable of fighting back. This already showed that the Qingyuan Immortal Venerable's strength was at least tens of thousands of times greater than those individuals, making them incomparable.
"Then may I ask, Immortal Venerable, what lies beyond the state of mind?"
Upon hearing this.
The man in front was stunned for a moment, then fell into deep thought. He then said, "Back then, it was precisely to find this answer that I became lost in the turbulent flow. Among the countless beings in the Great Thousand Worlds, for you to cultivate a state of mind is already a rare existence among hundreds of millions. Do not be too greedy!"
Su Han quickly nodded. Indeed, he was only at the mid-Emperor Realm now and was already struggling with a single Holy Altar, let alone a state of mind expert who was a rare existence among hundreds of millions.
"Let me put it this way: once you inherit my legacy and reach the state of mind, you will be able to destroy everything and create everything with a wave of your hand. However, to truly achieve 'words becoming reality' and act as you please will still require your endless years of arduous cultivation. Everything depends on destiny!"
After saying this.
The man looked intently at Su Han and then said, "Boy, kneel down and kowtow once. That will make you my successor!"
Su Han dared not hesitate. If he missed this opportunity now, escaping this place would be incredibly difficult. If he didn't inherit the legacy, he would likely die here. In essence, he had no choice!
*Thump!*
Su Han readily kowtowed!
As expected!
The man opposite nodded with great satisfaction. Then, his body of light and shadow dissipated, replaced by an ancient scroll in front of the thatched hut.
And this ancient scroll was the very one the man had been holding earlier!
Su Han immediately!
Stepped forward to examine it. At this moment, three items were placed on the table in the small courtyard: an ancient scroll, a cup of green wine, and a small sword!
Su Han observed them briefly and, finding no danger, stepped forward and picked up the ancient scroll.
Upon touching it, there were three large characters!
"Chaos Scripture!"
Looking at the ancient characters in seal script, Su Han felt an inexplicable surge of joy. He had to admit that the Qingyuan Immortal Venerable was truly a fellow countryman from Blue Star.
Soon, Su Han scanned it briefly and felt as if the scripture had come to life. It instantly transformed into a stream of light and flew into his body!
When Su Han felt again, he discovered that the scripture was now located in the center of his Sea of Consciousness, taking on the responsibility of dispatching the various energies within his body.
A moment later!
Su Han looked again at the cup of green wine on the table. Just by smelling it, a fragrance instantly wafted towards him. It felt like taking a deep breath of fresh air, or drinking a cup of clear mountain spring water!
*Gulp.*
Su Han drank it down without hesitation!
Almost instantly, it felt like drinking a cup of strong liquor upon entering his mouth. The clear sensation, tinged with a hint of spiciness, made Su Han feel extremely comfortable.
At the same time, Su Han felt as if his body was being nourished. His body, which was still undergoing reconstruction, began to heal rapidly under the nourishment of the green wine. Simultaneously, Su Han felt an unprecedented surge of energy, like a great river, surging wildly within him!
And every drop of water in this great river, the energy it emitted, felt capable of destroying heavens and earth!
"This..."
Su Han was instantly shocked. This feeling, such a small cup of wine, was like the essence of the Qingyuan Immortal Venerable's entire life, and he had just drunk it all in one go.
If the Qingyuan Immortal Venerable were present, he would probably fly into a rage and curse him for his recklessness!
Indeed.
At first, Su Han only felt a slight distension. But a minute later, he realized the gravity of the situation.
The energy of this green wine was too terrifying. In an instant, it had filled every limb and bone of his body, yet it continued to emit terrifying energy, as if it intended to burst Su Han!
"It's over, I was careless. How could such a small cup of wine..."
Su Han hadn't expected such a small cup of wine to contain so much energy. It was simply terrifying. If it had been a larger cup, he might have drunk it in stages, but this small wine cup was almost a single gulp.
However, it was too late to say anything now!
Su Han immediately began to meditate in place, intending to forcibly suppress it by circulating his energy. However, almost as soon as he began circulating his energy, his body felt like it was being churned by a storm, raging wildly within.
"Ah..."
In an instant, Su Han felt an intense pain throughout his body, feeling as if he was about to explode and die.
But suddenly!
At this critical juncture, the Chaos Scripture in his Sea of Consciousness, as if it had its own consciousness, instantly took control. From slowly rotating at first, it began to spin madly.
And with every rotation, the Chaos Scripture would absorb a large amount of terrifying energy, and then convert this energy into more dense and purer Chaos True Qi.
Before long, Su Han felt much of the pain subside!
At the same time, he miraculously discovered that with the help of the Chaos Scripture, the reshaping of his body was also being nourished by this Chaos True Qi, entering a brand new state!
*Rumble!*
A flash of lightning appeared, as if a great treasure was about to be unearthed. The heavens and earth produced anomalies. Around Su Han, who was cultivating, several rays of auspicious light had already appeared, looking extremely beautiful!
...
On the other side!
Bai Li Qin Yin and Qian Duo Duo encountered an unprecedented crisis. The two had originally planned to go to the Ghost Valley Abyss to stake out a position after inheriting the old man's legacy.
But unexpectedly!
The Azure Bamboo Sect opposite them was so treacherous. They had prepared several vines and, almost as soon as the two had left, had placed these vines above the abyss!
