Chapter 1270 - 820: Why Was It Given to Zhang Yu?!
Chapter 1270 - 820: Why Was It Given to Zhang Yu?!
The pondering in his heart lasted only for a split second, and at the same time... Zhang Yu tried to store the ancestor’s corpse before him into his Immortal Cave Heaven, only to discover that he failed again.
The Cave Heaven Power inside this ancestor’s corpse was far too dense... For Zhang Yu, trying to put the other party entirely into his Immortal Cave Heaven was like a tiny dung beetle trying to move an entire outhouse in one go—completely immovable.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yu had already placed his palm on the ancestor’s corpse at the middle of its back, attempting to extract the Cave Heaven Power within.
With this attempt, Zhang Yu immediately felt surging, roaring Cave Heaven Power rushing out, continuously being drawn away by him.
And his own Immortal Cave Heaven crazily expanded along with it, its length, width, and height growing from over 500 meters, gradually turning into 505 meters... 512 meters... 533 meters...
It was precisely during this process of extraction that a trace of familiarity arose in Zhang Yu’s heart: "Why does this feel like... the process of me extracting Cave Heaven Power from Corpse Items and subduing Frenzied Corpse Items?"
"This ancestor’s corpse... could it have been refined into a Corpse Item?"
"The last ancestor’s corpse Yingxin Heaven left in this Maze Realm—was it meant to be left to his descendants as a Cave Heaven Divine Beast?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Yu’s heart couldn’t help but tremble: "If this ancestor’s corpse, as a Corpse Item, ultimately becomes my Cave Heaven Divine Beast, I wonder what kind of abilities it will have?"
And just as Zhang Yu was crazily extracting Cave Heaven Power, he sensed that someone else had arrived in front of the giant corpse.
...
After hurrying all the way, pushing his speed to the limit, Ying Aikun finally arrived before the gigantic corpse.
Looking at the enormous body before his eyes, Ying Aikun immediately felt waves of intense hatred radiating out from within the corpse.
But thinking of the Immortal Inheritance, Ying Aikun still walked forward with a trace of excitement.
At the same time, he sensed the surrounding environment; the first thing he felt was that the giant corpse before him was shrouded in a mysterious power, and he couldn’t perceive its internal condition.
Ying Aikun didn’t care about this either; after all, this giant corpse was something left behind by Yingxin Heaven, so it was perfectly normal that he couldn’t observe it.
What he mainly did was sense the surroundings, checking whether there was anyone else present.
"As expected... am I the first one here?"
"Hahahaha, destiny favors me! Looks like this Immortal Inheritance really is meant to be mine!"
But when Ying Aikun walked up in front of the giant corpse, still nothing out of the ordinary happened.
The corpse remained motionless, just like how a corpse should be.
No words appeared around, and there was no Cave Heaven Power surging about.
Ying Aikun gradually became somewhat puzzled, thinking to himself: "So this Immortal Inheritance... how am I supposed to receive it?"
Just as Ying Aikun was pondering, a voice suddenly came from the giant corpse’s mouth: "You’re a descendant of Yingxin Heaven, aren’t you?"
Upon hearing this, Ying Aikun instantly grew excited: "I... I am!"
Inside the giant corpse, Zhang Yu split off one clone after another, transforming into waves of airflow that shook the giant corpse’s internal organs, forcing them to release rolling sound waves.
Giant corpse: "Mm... not bad."
Ying Aikun looked at the giant corpse with some excitement, waiting for the other party’s next words, but found that the giant corpse had already fallen silent.
Meanwhile, inside the giant corpse, Zhang Yu, who was in the middle of extracting Cave Heaven Power, secretly muttered "trouble" in his heart: "I’ve got to find a way to stall for time."
While the giant corpse was silent, Ying Aikun couldn’t help but say: "Se... senior? How should I receive this Immortal Inheritance?"
The giant corpse let out a huh? and said, "You, as a descendant of Yingxin Heaven, don’t even know how to claim your own clan’s inheritance?"
Yingxin Heaven said somewhat awkwardly, "Maybe... maybe the forefather arranged things in a rush and forgot to leave me a message."
The giant corpse said, "Fine, then. Do you have anything valuable on you?"
Hearing this, Yingxin Heaven reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, instantly on high alert with a buzz.
Yingxin Heaven: "Senior, what do you mean by that?"
The giant corpse said, "I’m already a dead man; could I still be lying to you?"
"Besides, I am the Sect Master of the Sky Demon Sect, and you’re a member of the Sky Demon Sect, and also a descendant of Yingxin Heaven."
"You are the successor personally chosen by the two of us, after all."
Hearing these words, Ying Aikun felt even the flow of Mana in his body speed up; he asked, "Senior, please tell me first—what exactly do you want me to do?"
The giant corpse opened its mouth and said, "The Immortal Inheritance is a peerless rarity, almost unseen in the world. Although you bear a dual identity and are the cross-generational successor personally selected by me and Yingxin Heaven, you must still display sufficient talent and potential before you can receive the inheritance."
Ying Aikun nodded slightly, saying with confidence, "Senior, I wonder what counts as talent and potential?"
The giant corpse continued, "The Immortal Path is boundless, and wealth is the boat that carries you across. To be our cross-generational successor, the foremost requirement is, of course, to be rich."
"Take out the most valuable things you have on you and let me see whether your current net worth is enough for you to become an Immortal’s successor."
On hearing this, Ying Aikun was startled inside and secretly thought that things were bad.
"After I was expelled from the Wanfa Sect, my net worth plummeted and is already far worse than before. With my current financial strength... can I pass?"
Although he was worried inwardly, Ying Aikun remained expressionless on the surface and said in a bold tone, "That’s easy."
He smacked his Qiankun Pot with his hand, and multicolored radiance burst out from within, revealing all kinds of scenes from the internal space.
Ying Aikun said proudly, "This Qiankun Pot of mine was once a special independent space approved from above. Not only are all the licenses and certificates complete, it can be used for ’commerce, residence, combat, and transport’ all in one. It’s even connected to the Spiritual Mechanism, the Spirit Realm, and Immortal Qi. Although, after many transfers, it’s now only about five thousand mu in size, selling it for a few hundred million Immortal Coins would be no problem at all."
