Sour Pickled Peanuts

Chapter 380 The Chosen One

Nangong Yu, filled with indignation, repeatedly sought opportunities to lash out, but the disregard shown by Qin Hanchu and the other left her fury with no outlet.

Qin Hanchu was, after all, nominally the son-in-law of Hantian City, and even if Nangong Yu did not hold Qin Hanchu in high regard, she dared not make a move against him.

Before breakfast was finished, Nangong Yu, with her guards, left in a huff.

Seeing Nangong Yu depart, Axiang chuckled triumphantly, "It's hilarious to see her so angry."

"I'm going back to cultivate." Qin Hanchu had no desire to waste time sightseeing. With Nangong Yu gone, he also needed to return to his cultivation.

Axiang nodded, "Alright, I'll go back to cultivate too."

Upon returning to the City Lord's mansion, Qin Hanchu and Axiang saw the City Lord and his wife approaching them.

"Where is Nangong Yu?" Han Tian asked.

"She left," Axiang replied.

"In a few days, we'll be attending a birthday banquet at the Feng Mo Sect. You two should try not to leave the city."

"And if you must leave the city, make sure you bring sufficient guards, understand?"

Han Tian said.

"I will be in seclusion and will not leave during this period," Qin Hanchu stated.

The City Lord's wife smiled at Axiang, "You also need to cultivate diligently and stop bothering Han Su for fun."

"Got it, I'll go into seclusion too."

After chatting with the City Lord and his wife for a while, Qin Hanchu returned to his room.

For the following period, Qin Hanchu spent his days in seclusion.

Even meals were delivered to his room by the servants of the City Lord's mansion.

As he cultivated, Qin Hanchu's spiritual power grew increasingly formidable.

One day, while Qin Hanchu was cultivating, he suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.

When he opened his eyes, he found himself standing in Dragon City on Blue Star.

"What's going on?"

As Qin Hanchu was still in shock, he suddenly felt another dizzy spell.

Upon opening his eyes again, Qin Hanchu discovered he was in a world of five colors.

He looked around curiously.

Where was this place?

Wasn't he cultivating in the City Lord's mansion?

How did he end up here?

The city he had just seen was clearly Dragon City on Blue Star.

He had stayed in Dragon City for a long time and couldn't possibly mistake it.

Just as Qin Hanchu was pondering, the surrounding five-colored light suddenly surged towards him.

It was only then that Qin Hanchu realized he had no physical body.

Was he merely a consciousness at this moment?

The five-colored light continued to converge, eventually forming a ball of five-colored light about the size of a fist.

As Qin Hanchu wondered, he saw this five-colored ball of light suddenly charge towards him.

Boom!

Qin Hanchu's eyes snapped open as if waking from a deep dream.

Seeing that he was still in his room at the City Lord's mansion, he widened his eyes in shock.

What exactly had just happened?

It couldn't have been a dream he had while sleeping, could it?

Qin Hanchu was certain he had been cultivating and had not fallen asleep.

After thinking for a long time, Qin Hanchu couldn't figure out what had happened.

In the end, he could only suppress his doubts and continue cultivating.

However, when he channeled his spiritual power, he discovered something astonishing.

His spiritual power had somehow penetrated his own body.

Under the perception of his spiritual power, his body appeared like a 3D transparent model.

His internal organs, bones, blood vessels, and so on were all clearly reflected in his consciousness.

Apart from this, Qin Hanchu also found that the five elemental energies around him were actively entering his body.

To Qin Hanchu's astonishment, the five elemental energies had no conflict within his body.

The energies of the five colors flowed harmoniously within his body and then actively moved towards Qin Hanchu's internal organs.

The liver belongs to wood, the heart to fire, the spleen to earth, the lungs to metal, and the kidneys to water!

In Qin Hanchu's consciousness, his five internal organs emanated light corresponding to the five elements.

As the powers of the five elements intertwined within his body, a trace of five-colored power was born.

Simultaneously, Qin Hanchu felt his entire body filled with power.

This trace of five-colored power seemed to contain the power to destroy heaven and earth.

Primordial Chaos Power!

What was going on?

Qin Hanchu could hardly believe it.

He hadn't done anything, so why had Primordial Chaos Power been born within his body?

He hadn't even fully understood the theory of Primordial Chaos, so how could this happen?

It was as if someone had given him a "divine enlightenment."

The moment the Primordial Chaos Power was born, the Ice Spirit Jade on Qin Hanchu's wrist suddenly emitted a beam of five-colored light.

Immediately after, the shocked voice of Emperor Bei Han Xuan resounded, "You... you are actually a Child of Destiny!"

"What does that mean?"

At this moment, Qin Hanchu was like an observer, with the power within him operating autonomously, requiring no participation from him whatsoever.

Hearing Emperor Bei Han Xuan's shocked voice, Qin Hanchu asked.

"I'll follow you from now on. You're my big brother."

"Haha... I didn't expect my luck to be so good, to have the honor of following a Child of Destiny."

After his shock, Emperor Bei Han Xuan laughed excitedly.

"What exactly does it mean?" Qin Hanchu asked again.

Only then did Emperor Bei Han Xuan explain:

"The worlds in the myriad realms are divided into four grades: Small Worlds, Medium Worlds, Great Worlds, and Sovereign Worlds!"

"Among them, Great Worlds and Sovereign Worlds have their own Heavenly Dao Spirits."

"Although Heavenly Dao Spirits possess wisdom, they cannot appear before the eyes of mortals."

"Legend has it that Heavenly Dao Spirits select living beings to be their avatars."

"The chosen beings are called Children of Destiny."

"All Children of Destiny are bound to possess Primordial Chaos Power."

"Not only that, but they also receive the power blessing from the Heavenly Dao Spirit."

"The stronger their power, the greater the power blessing they receive."

"When the strength of the Child of Destiny equals or surpasses that of the Heavenly Dao Spirit, they can feed their own power back to the Heavenly Dao Spirit."

"With the power fed back by the Child of Destiny, the Heavenly Dao Spirit can complete its transformation."

"It is rumored that the current Sovereign Worlds all ascended from Great Worlds."

"The Spirit King realm is the minimum standard for becoming a Child of Destiny."

"You must have had the Child of Destiny mark planted in you long ago."

"That's why you were able to communicate with the Heavenly Dao Spirit once your spiritual power reached the standard."

"Don't be fooled by your current Spirit King realm. With the blessing of the Heavenly Dao Spirit and Primordial Chaos Power, your combat strength can even reach the level of the Profound King."

"Above the Spirit realm is the Profound realm."

"It is rumored that Children of Destiny can fight across major realms."

"I have only heard of it, never seen it."

Emperor Bei Han Xuan's words left Qin Hanchu utterly perplexed.

A Great World planting a mark on him?

When had he ever been to a Great World?

Earlier, his consciousness seemed to have returned to Blue Star. Could Blue Star be a Great World?

Blue Star, whether in terms of territory or the density of elemental energy, could not compare to this world. Could it be a Great World?

"According to you, is Primordial Chaos Power a power exclusive to Children of Destiny?" Qin Hanchu asked.

"Primordial Chaos Power can be cultivated, but the cultivation method is a top secret."

"Only some ancient forces possess the corresponding cultivation techniques."

"Even as a martial artist at the Profound Saint level, I am not qualified to access such cultivation methods."

Speaking of this, Emperor Bei Han Xuan's tone carried a hint of self-mockery.
