Chapter 446 - 446: The Inheritance of the World-Transcending Sword Master
“Take it,” Su Chen said softly to Mu Qingxue. “I’m afraid I won’t be able to bring you with me to where I’m going next. During this time, you can take this quasi-emperor’s coffin and find a place to cultivate for a while.”
“Hmm?” Mu Qingxue’s curiosity was piqued. Her light blue eyes filled with curiosity as she stared at Su Chen and asked, “Senior Brother, are you preparing to fight for the inheritance of the World-Transcending Sword Master?”
In the Chaotic Sea Star Region, the inheritance of a Quasi-Emperor Realm expert might be quite valuable. However, its value depended on what it was compared against. Compared to the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance, a quasi-emperor’s inheritance was nothing.
After all, every World-Transcending Sword Master recorded in ancient texts since then had started off at the Great Emperor Realm. As for even stronger existences, they had all entered the Immortal Realm. No one knew their final achievements, but each of them had dominated the world for countless years as terrifying existences.
In other words, the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance was a path leading straight to the Great Emperor Realm. In this era without any great emperors, anyone would be tempted. Even Mu Qingxue yearned for it, but her strength only allowed her to yearn.
She had originally planned to discuss with Su Chen whether he could bring her along. However, considering her mere Nirvana Realm cultivation base, not even at the Quasi-Saint Realm, she silently gave up. With someone like Senior Brother Su Chen going, it could be expected there would be many Great Saint Realm experts present. As a Nirvana Realm cultivator, she would probably just be cannon fodder if she went.
Instead, as Su Chen suggested, it would be better to find a place to focus on breaking through to the Quasi-Saint Realm. She could also refine the quasi-emperor’s opportunity in the future. Her strength might then soar exponentially. By the time she emerged from seclusion, she might rely on her own power to save her master. This way, she could help Senior Brother Su Chen to an even greater extent in the future to repay his kindness.
Thinking of this, Mu Qingxue felt suddenly enlightened.
“Yes,” Su Chen said with a gentle nod. “That’s why refining this quasi-emperor’s opportunity is your best choice. That’s why I want you to have this quasi-emperor’s coffin.”
“Well then…l won’t decline any longer!” Mu Qingxue pursed her red lips and said respectfully. Senior Brother Su Chen’s good intentions moved her deeply.
In her opinion, these were all excuses from Senior Brother Su Chen. After all, although the quasi-emperor’s coffin could not be stored in a storage ring, with Senior Brother Su Chen’s strength, few could snatch it from him. The reason he did this was probably to help his junior sister cultivate.
When the coffin fell into Mu Qingxue’s hands, an inexplicable light flashed in the White Jade Divine Elephant’s eyes. If it was in Su Chen’s hands, it wouldn’t have dared make any strange moves. However, things were different with Mu Qingxue. As a mere Nirvana Realm cultivator without even Quasi-Saint Realm strength, it, a peak-stage Saint Realm powerhouse like itself could easily manipulate her.
Thinking about this, it grew very excited. However, it did not yet dare make any moves. From the conversation, it knew that Su Chen aimed to fight for the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance while Mu Qingxue would find a place to cultivate in seclusion. Then, its opportunity would come.
Thinking this, the White Jade Divine Elephant’s eyes rippled as it tried to suppress its excitement and appear normal to avoid attracting Su Chen’s attention.
“You really don’t know what’s good for you!” Su Chen glanced at the White Jade Divine Elephant, thinking, “You dare have designs on my things…”
Originally, he had wanted to give it a chance at life. But now, it seemed unappreciative! Su Chen shook his head and left a trace of his spiritual will on the White Jade Divine Elephant before his mind completely entered the system space.
In the originally empty space now stood a ten-foot-tall golden divine stone, seemingly condensed from the power of heavenly laws. Covered in profound patterns, the dense Dao rhyme it emitted had reached an extreme intensity. Even casually refining it into a weapon would bring incredible power.
After all, immortal gold was no joke. Indeed, this item was immortal gold! The piece Su Chen had obtained from Huo Xi in the past was merely the size of a fist compared to this towering piece. If news spread, it would undoubtedly shake the world. For even true immortals coveted immortal gold!
This was a system reward for a recent bragging mission requiring 50,000 people that Su Chen had long noticed and finally completed today. “With such abundant immortal gold, I may no longer lack materials when refining the Azure Dragon Sword,” Su Chen thought.
The amount Huo Xi had obtained in the past probably paled in comparison to Su Chen’s batch now. Soon after, Su Chen exited the system space and spurred the White Jade Divine Elephant onward.
In the blink of an eye, several days passed. Mu Qingxue found an ancient star and entered secluded cultivation. Su Chen and the White Jade Divine Elephant continued their journey. Another half month later, they finally arrived at the Chaotic Sea Star Region’s most mysterious location.
He looked around. It was an ocean of peaks, magnificent and undulating. These were not mundane mountains but stellar mountain ranges forged by someone’s great divine powers. They stood quietly in the universe like loyal soldiers, guarding the inheritance of the World-Transcending Sword Master.
Peak upon towering peak connected heaven and earth, extremely massive and countless feet tall as they guarded the cosmos. Even the giant White Jade Divine Elephant seemed a mere speck of dust compared to them. The peaks exuded an indescribable oppressive aura that shook one’s mind. Those with weaker cultivations would likely be frightened out of their wits by such majestic mountains..
