nSeeing that Shen Ran did not speak, Wan Ziling continued, “That Wang Qingxuan broke through to the Illumination Realm in just three years. He’s one of the most powerful candidates for the future Dao Child. I’ve cultivated for many years, but I’m only at the seventh level of the Illumination Realm. If he really wants to do something to us and the Ninth Summit, I can’t stop him.”
n
nHearing this, coupled with the hostility that was targeted at him previously, Shen Ran’s respect for Wan Ziling was gone.
n
n“Shen Ran, you’re just a servant disciple now anyway, and it’ll be difficult for you to rise in the future. Why don’t you just leave the Empyrean Sword Sect? Don’t worry, after you leave the mountain, I’ll take care of you. It’s not difficult to be a rich man for the rest of your life.”
n
nWan Ziling continued to persuade him earnestly.
n
n“Say no more, Peak Master.”
n
nShen Ran no longer had a good impression of her and directly interrupted Wan Ziling. “I won’t give up on the Empyrean Sword Sect for the time being. But you don’t have to worry. No matter what, I won’t let you, Qingqing, and the Ninth Summit be implicated because of me.”
n
nUpon hearing Shen Ran’s reply, a hint of ruthlessness flashed across Wan Ziling’s eyes, but she barely suppressed it.
n
nShe gritted her teeth and said, “Alright, since you’ve made up your mind, I won’t say anything else. If you change your mind in the future, you can come to me anytime. However, if we’re really implicated by you one day, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
n
nWith that, Wan Ziling left without hesitation.
n
n“Greetings, Peak Master!”
n
nShen Ran remained in the room and heard the other servant disciples greet Wan Ziling.
n
nHis evaluation of her fell to rock bottom.
n
nDid Wan Ziling know that he had offended Wang Qingxuan before?
n
nShen Ran recalled the conversation.
n
nHe suddenly had an annoying guess as to why he would be demoted to a servant disciple.
n
nHe cared about his friendship with Wan Qingqing.
n
nWith his full strength, with the Supreme Bones, Pangu Sacred Body, Ancient Immortal Eyes, and Heavenly Spirit Root, he was only at the third level of the Divine Sea Realm.
n
nBut the outcome was still unknown if he were to take on Wan Ziling, who was at the seventh level of the Illumination Realm.
n
n‘Hmph!’
n
nShen Ran snorted.
n
nWhat a ruthless woman!
n
nShortsighted and shallow!
n
nAfter he pocketed all the opportunities, he would increase his cultivation.
n
nA mere spy from the Demon Sect, Wang Qingxuan, is nothing
n
nHe’s just a small ant that could be killed with a flip of his hand!
n
nThinking of this, Shen Ran calmed down.
n
nWithout looking back, he rushed out of his residence and headed straight for the Grand Myriad Mountains.
n
n…
n
n…
n
nGrand Myriad Mountains.
n
nGhost Cry Cliff.
n
nThis was a bottomless chasm in the depths of the Grand Myriad Mountains.
n
nStanding at the edge of the cliff and looking down at noon, when the sun was at its strongest, he could not see the bottom.
n
nAt the same time, there was a constant cold wind at the bottom of the cliff and a continuous sound like a resentful ghost crying would arise.
n
nTherefore, this natural chasm was also called the Ghost Cry Cliff.
n
nEven the bloodthirsty ancient ferocious beasts would usually stay away from this place.
n
n“Gulp.”
n
nShen Ran stood at the edge of the cliff and looked at the dark, deep cliff. He swallowed the spittle in his mouth.
n
nI didn’t expect such a damn place to hide the inheritance of the ancient powerhouse, the ‘Azure Supreme’. If I hadn’t seen the narrative, I probably wouldn’t have come to this place in my life.
n
n“Boohoo—”
n
nAt this moment, an extremely swift and cold wind blew out from the bottom of the Ghost Cry Cliff.
n
nThe wind was extremely cold, causing Shen Ran’s robes to flutter.
n
nAt the same time, the wind sounded as though ten thousand babies were wailing at the bottom of the cliff.
n
nEven Shen Ran felt his scalp tingle when he heard that.
n
nLet’s go down.
n
nTaking a deep breath, Shen Ran decided not to waste any more time.
n
nHe immediately climbed down the cliff.
n
nAs it went deeper, the surrounding temperature began to drop rapidly. It could be seen that the unknown black plants growing on the cliff were covered in frost.
n
nHowever, there were unexpected discoveries.
n
nThe deeper I go, the higher the concentration of spiritual energy. I’ve only climbed down for a few hundred feet, but the concentration of spiritual energy is almost three times that of the servant quarters. I wonder how dense the spiritual energy will be at the bottom.
n
nWith this thought in mind, Shen Ran climbed down a little further.
n
nThe air around him suddenly thickened. He felt as if he had fallen into a bucket of glue that was about to solidify.
n
nIf he wanted to move his body casually, his limbs felt like they were hung with boundless gravity.
n
nBefore he could think, another gust of cold wind swept out from the bottom of the Ghost Cry Cliff.
n
nAmidst the cries of the ten thousand babies, Shen Ran felt his body suddenly being grabbed by an invisible hand.
n
nHe was immediately swept down to the bottom of the cliff by a strong force.
n
nDamn it!
n
nShen Ran cursed inwardly.
n
nHe was about to unleash all his strength and spiritual energy to resist.
n
nHis vision blurred. Whether it was the cold wind or the terrifying cries, they all stopped.
n
nThe sense of falling ceased to exist.
n
nHe felt grounded.
n
nShen Ran looked around blankly and realized that he was no longer on some bottomless cliff.
n
nInstead, he was unknowingly moved into an extremely vast hall.
n
nIn the hall, the thick stone pillars, rockery, trees, and the lampstand with candles exuded an ancient and mysterious aura.
n
nEverything seemed to have experienced the baptism of endless years, ancient but not ruined.
n
n“Are we here? The place of the Azure Supreme Thearch’s Inheritance.”
n
nShen Ran muttered to himself.
n
nThe Azure Supreme was the strongest person in this fantasy world 30,000 years ago.
n
nHis rise was the focus of everyone’s attention. In just 300 years, he was invincible in the world and defeated the 3,000 extraterrestrial demons!
n
nAfter a hundred years of battle with the outer realm Demon Master in the void, the Great Dao collapsed.
n
nThe Azure Supreme alone suppressed the Demon Master of the outer realm and drove the 3,000 demons who had invaded this world to the outer realm. Only then did he obtain 30,000 years of peace in this fantasy world.
n
nHowever, 5,000 years after the peaceful era began, the Azure Supreme Thearch seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. No trace of him could be found.
n
nOnly countless legends praising the Azure Supreme remained.
n
nIf one asked who the strongest expert in the history of the human race was, without a doubt, everyone’s answer would be the Azure Supreme!
n
nIt would only be the Azure Supreme!
n
nUnexpectedly, his inheritance was left behind at the Ghost Cry Cliff, such a strange and uninhabited cliff.
n
nIf he had known from elsewhere that this was the place where the Azure Supreme Thearch Inheritance was, Shen Ran would not have believed it.
n
nBut the source of the news was a narrative. That would definitely not go wrong.
n
nThis was the legendary place of inheritance of the Azure Supreme!
n
nHe would obtain the Azure Supreme Thearch inheritance here!
n
nThinking of this, even Shen Ran, who already had the strongest talent in the world, could not help but feel a little excited.
n
n“Junior Shen Ran pays respect to the strongest human in history, the Azure Supreme!”
n
nAs he sighed, Shen Ran sincerely cupped his fists and bowed to the hall in front of him.
n
n“Rumble!”
n
nBefore Shen Ran could finish speaking, the entire hall suddenly began to shake violently.
n
n
