Free Web NovelChapter 599: Chapter 402: The Inheritance Begins (Part 2)
In addition to the irregularity of the Five Elements Inheritance.
There are very few cultivators in this place of inheritance in the Wanlang Mountains.
Zhong Heng entered this Secret Realm and immediately felt the continuously pure Qi of the Five Elements.
The Secret Realm isn’t large, comparable to a county of a mundane small country.
The Divine Sense of a Nascent Soul cultivator can sweep through and capture all details in the mind.
This place is akin to a transit station; when the time comes, it will officially open to enter the inheritance trial of the Five Elements True Immortal.
There, all the Five Elements Celestial Pride of the Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm will meet.
In theory, this transit station Secret Realm will not appear in the Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm until the time is right.
Yet, Chu Manor accidentally entered it and cultivated to Golden Core Perfection here.
Recently, as the inheritance is about to begin, the Secret Realm’s exit surfaced, allowing Chu Manor to leave.
This led to the subsequent series of events.
In these two hundred years, Chu Manor has been diligently cultivating and has also explored the area, discovering some opportunities.
"Greetings, Senior."
There are still some people in the Secret Realm.
Most of them are cultivators from the Land of the Far North.
There are fewer cultivators from the south.
Among them, a few Golden Core cultivators who crossed the Spiritless Land are being nourished without causing any breakthroughs; thus, they won’t be detected by the Demon Lord.
"Oh? Zhong Dao You?"
Someone exclaimed in surprise.
Zhong Heng looked toward this person.
"Hmm? Daoist Zhang."
Zhong Heng recognized this person.
A cultivator from the western region, at the Early-Stage Nascent Soul.
Next to him, there was another Early-Stage Nascent Soul cultivator from the eastern region.
Both brought along a group of Five Elements Celestial Pride from the south.
"I didn’t expect Zhong Dao You to come here at this time."
"That Demon Lord from the Land of the Far North is not easy to deal with. I wonder what price Zhong Dao You paid to pass through..."
This person was thinking.
But in the next second, he smelled a wisp of Evil Qi that had just dissipated from Zhong Heng...
The kind of Evil Qi that only appears after having killed someone, especially a strong peer.
Moreover, the aura seemed familiar... the Demon Lord from the Land of the Far North?
Not only him, the other Nascent Soul cultivator nearby was also stunned.
In their view, although the Land of the Far North is not big, the Demon Lord there is notably powerful.
After all, in the west and east regions, Late-Stage Nascent Souls are not many, and the Demon Lord possessing Late-Stage Nascent Soul battle power is already quite remarkable; otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to decimate all the original Nascent Soul leaders here.
Zhong Heng, however, paid them no mind.
Trekked through the mountains.
The Nascent Soul cultivator surnamed Zhang from the west took a distant look at the Nascent Soul in the east, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly smiled to follow Zhong Heng.
Said, "Zhong Dao You, we have all checked this place once over there is where the recent inheritance ground will open..."
Zhong Heng, however, ignored him.
Went to a spring by himself.
A burst of light of the Five Elements suddenly appeared on his body.
Seemingly stimulated by the light of the Five Elements.
The spring also began to emit brilliance slowly.
The brilliance shone upon Zhong Heng, covering his entire body.
"Wanlang Mountains, Late-Stage Nascent Soul, bone age four hundred ninety-five years, identified as an A-Class Seed."
A voice that only Zhong Heng could hear echoed.
A gentle light appeared from within, flowing into Zhong Heng’s body.
Zhong Heng’s eyes suddenly glowed, and the gentle light gathered in his pupils.
His original eyes were already remarkable; in the entire Jiuzhou, though the Thousand Illusion Gaze wasn’t considered top-tier, it was still well-known.
Now the light of the Five Elements flickered, unexpectedly enhancing Zhong Heng’s eyes.
Zhong Heng even sensed a trace of Five Elements Immortal Essence from it.
"Hmm? Is it the True Immortal Origin?!"
This item startled Elder Hu within the gourd pendant at Zhong Heng’s waist.
Elder Hu was somewhat uncertain.
"The True Immortal Origin to a True Immortal is akin to Essence Blood to a mortal."
"Though it can recover, excessive loss damages the foundation."
"Would the Five Elements True Immortal be this generous?"
"Something feels off..."
Zhong Heng, however, had already accepted the light.
His eyes glowed with magnificent colors.
He could feel his Thousand Illusion Gaze had been upgraded.
Infused with a trace of the Five Elements attribute, perhaps with these eyes, Zhong Heng might achieve the level of turning illusions into reality.
"Hmm? This feeling..."
There was a hint of puzzlement in Elder Hu’s tone.
"What is it?"
"Perhaps I felt it wrong... when you accept the inheritance, I will enter slumber; using another Immortal’s artifact during the trial of a True Immortal’s inheritance is disrespectful to this True Immortal."
"You can call upon the Qi of the Five Elements, but other functions of the Five Elements Qiankun Gourd need to be temporarily disabled."
"Okay..."
Zhong Heng and Elder Hu exchanged briefly.
He opened his eyes, and five yin-yang fish appeared in Zhong Heng’s pupils, rotating with the colors of the Five Elements.
The Thousand Illusion Gaze combined with the upgrade from the True Immortal Origin, Zhong Heng simply named it the Five Elements Gaze.
Zhong Heng could feel his Five Elements Talent had risen again.
These eyes alone provided more advantages than a typical Five Elements Spirit Body.
Even ordinary Five Spirit Roots could become prodigies with these eyes.
Zhong Heng could sense the abilities of the Five Elements Gaze divided into the Five Elements and the Illusion Skill, the two intermixing and alternating; used skillfully, it might accomplish turning illusions within the Five Elements into reality, endlessly wondrous.
"Zhong Dao You... what is this..."
The two Nascent Souls looked at Zhong Heng in astonishment.
Zhong Heng pondered for a moment, and his voice reached all cultivators here about to accept the inheritance.
"There is an opportunity here, come and accept it..."
Zhong Heng was not particularly generous, but there were no Nascent Soul cultivators on the Five Elements Dao here; the remaining were merely Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment Golden Core juniors.
Neither of the two Nascent Souls practiced the Five Elements Technique.
Too few could cultivate the Five Elements Technique to the Nascent Soul.
Moreover, even the commercially modified Five Elements Technique wasn’t a particularly brilliant technique; even some Five Elements Spirit Bodies practiced other techniques.
Yet Zhong Heng practicing the Five Elements Technique surprised the two Nascent Souls.
"Thank you, Senior."
Everyone expressed joy, coming to accept the inheritance.
Zhong Heng said nothing more, merely sitting cross-legged in the area with the densest Qi of the Five Elements, waiting for the inheritance to begin.
[You didn’t keep the opportunity for yourself, you shared it with all the cultivators here.]
[In your observation, this spring water grants opportunities based on the evaluation of each cultivator; apart from you, you’ve never seen any Level A cultivator, only one Golden Core cultivator from an independent medium-sized Cultivation Realm was rated Level B.]
[If the trial were to start now, you guessed this spring might have a second layer of trials.]
[The Five Elements True Immortal once spread his way across the world, he was generous; if you claimed this spring water all for yourself, no one could stop you, but according to the nature of the Five Elements True Immortal, you suspected this would irk him.]
[You sat in meditation within the Secret Realm, waiting, more than a year passed quickly.]
[You learned more about the Five Elements True Immortal from the mouth of the cultivator surnamed Zhang.]
For example, the title of the Five Elements.
The Five Elements has always been a popular title.
For cultivators, having one’s honorific clashed is a matter of life and death; in the Cultivation Realm, cultivators allow others to share their names but will never allow anyone to share their honorific.
Of course, ordinary Foundation Establishment Golden Cores aren’t even worthy of an honorific; their titles are more like nicknames in the Jianghu.
But Nascent Soul Transformation God True Immortals are different.
In a way, this honorific is tantamount to their unique path.
The fact the Five Elements True Immortal could monopolize this title shows he is far stronger than the legends suggest. freewēbnoveℓ.com
He was also the first True Immortal level figure to have his inheritance spread throughout the Jiuzhou.
True Immortals are too distant, common people can’t even see through them a bit, they can only know a thing or two from the ethereal legends.
Even Nascent Souls can only trace some clues from legends.
But undoubtedly, the Five Elements True Immortal is far more mysterious than other True Immortals, even if his legends fill the streets and alleys.
