Chapter 54 Inheritance #2
Lin Lee's mouth twitched, looking at the beast running like a squirrel on the ground. 'It's definitely a squirrel; unfortunately, I have no nuts, or I will test it out.' He thought then followed calmly looking at the shelf, filled with books around.
After passing through the shelves, they halted beside the room. Squirrel beast then pointed at the door and said, "You can go inside; only inheritors are allowed inside; my entry is not allowed."
Lin Lee nodded, then walked inside after opening the wooden door calmly.
Outside, the squirrel beast looking at his back became thoughtful. 'Did he recognize my race just now? But Primordial Spirit Eye Beasts are extinct. How did he recognize me? He is not a reincarnation of an immortal; the test already confirmed that.'
…
Meanwhile, Inside the Xuan Sect,
A few moments ago, just after Chu Min annihilation,
Chu Xuan was practicing; instantly, he opened his eyes, coughed up blood, his eyes turned red, and he shouted in panic, "Noo, Min'er."
Instantly, his figure flickered and disappeared toward the border.
...
Inheritance Tower,
Inside the inheritance room,
Lin Lee glanced at the middle-aged man with dark hair and eyes sitting crossed-legged on a taoist pad in the middle of the room.
There is only a jade bed, a simple chair and table, and two knives attached to the wall above the bed.
Lin Lee then glanced at the middle-aged man, looking at his appearance with golden hair's and pupil, 'He looks like a real person. Is he an immortal?'
Feeling Lin Lee's gaze, the middle-aged man instantly opened his eyes, looking at Lin Lee, then scanning him up and down.
A smile materialized on his handsome face, and he nodded satisfiedly, "Very good, perfect for my inheritance."
Lin Lee glanced at him a little vigilantly, then saluted, "I have seen senior."
"Don't worry, little brother, I am already dead; this is just my soul ray. Although I can destroy a single lower world with this ray, I will not harm you." He spoke assuredly to Lin Lee with a smile.
Lin Lee became speechless. 'This guy is showing off or warning me; what does he mean by not harming me and destroying the single lower world?'
Then he realized something and then asked, "Senior, did you say single lower world? Are there other lower worlds beside this one?"
"Oh, you are observant; very good. I will give you a plus point for that. There are indeed lower worlds, not just one or two; they are uncountable under single Immortal realm." The middle-aged man replied,
Then realized something, he patted his forehead and said, "Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Xuan Huang, and I was known by the name of Immortal Emperor Xuan."
"I was once the ruler of one of the 129,600 immortal domain's, the Xuan Immortal domain, but it was later destroyed along with the other 22,600 domains; now only 108,000 immortal domains are remaining; I was annihilated along with it, but one of my soul ray somehow survived and fell in this lower world," Xuan explained, further telling the misfortune encountered by him, then sighed in the end.
"Why were so many immortal domains destroyed? Who can destroy them?" Lin Lee asked in shock; he couldn't believe that a single lower world is equal to a universe, and yet there are uncountable such lower worlds under the jurisdiction of a single immortal domain, and such a domain is destroyed—not one or two more than twenty thousand.
"Little Brother, don't ask anymore, I don't want to recall that horror; even those immortal emperor who were proud and ruling immortal domains contently, were like a helpless chicken in front of that catastrophe," Xuan Huang said solemnly, a horror flashed through his pupil.
Looking at strange expression of Lin Lee, coughed then his expression became deep and profound, and he further added, "Ahem... After that, I learned a profound lesson; I started living humbly and cautiously, even calling an ant a little brother; I started collecting knowledge and information; and I created this inheritance tower to select my next inheritor. My soul ray is also reaching the limit after all these yuans; it will dissipate anytime."
Lin Lee's mouth twitched, looking at Immortal Xuan's deep expression. 'Profound lesson, my foot; he just called me an ant indirectly. This guy directly became an Otaku from Immortal Emperor after a catastrophe; he just wants to justify that. Anyway, I should endure; I can sympathize with him; it must be a true horror, if even the immortal Emperor doesn't want to recall.'
"The final realm in the Immortal domain is immortal Emperor, after reaching Immortal in lower world, which is also known as the ascension realm. After that, one ascends to the immortal domain, then there are next major realms, great immortal, true immortal, immortal spirit, immortal king, and immortal emperor, the five major realms of immortality." Xuan explained patiently,
He nodded thoughtfully, then he asked curiously, "Senior, can you tell me what kind of realm is an immortal emperor is?"
Xuan was startled and then said, "After inheriting my inheritance, you will know everything about the immortal realm, but anyway, I am going to tell you myself; I haven't talked to anyone."
"The final realm in the Immortal domain is immortal Emperor, after reaching Immortal in lower world, which is also known as the ascension realm. After that, one ascends to the immortal domain, then there are next major realms, great immortal, true immortal, immortal spirit, immortal king, and immortal emperor, the five major realms of immortality." Xuan explained patiently,
"It's the same; there are five major realms in the spirit continent and five major realms in the immortal domain." Lin Lee said thoughtfully,
"You are wrong," Xuan Huang shook his head and corrected, "I have been to other lower worlds; in some lower worlds, heavenly laws work differently, and the strength realms are also different. The same applies to the immortal domains; each immortal domain's cultivation system is different; there are demon immortal domains, devil's immortal domains, Buddha's immortal domains, and dragon's immortal domains; every cultivation path is different; anyway, eventually all paths lead to the same destination. You will understand it later."
Lin Lee nodded, then glanced at his disappearing figure. "Senior, it seems your time has really arrived."
"Ha ha ha, it's because my obsession disappeared; I have found a talented inheritor." Xuan Huang said with a laugh, then his expression became silent after a while, solemnly said, "I will advise you about one final point: don't show mercy to anyone that offends you in the immortal domain. The experience there is very different from the lower world's."
"You can find my inheritance in that jade on the bed; it contains exercises and art's I learned, and the whole knowledge about the books you saw outside; you are already in the holy realms; such information will not burden your soul." Xuan then pointed at the white jade lying on the bed.
"Also, take care of my beast pet outside; give it a name, and it will recognize you as it's new master,"He requested it in the end, then closed his eyes; his figure completely dissipated.
Lin Lee was looking at his dissipated figure and saluting thoughtfully, 'What does he mean by that? When did I say, I will show mercy to such people?'
Then he turned around and glanced at the inheritance jade on the bed.
He appeared and sat cross-legged on the bed, beside the inheritance jade, then he summoned his bead spirit. Feeling no reaction from his bead spirit,
Lin Lee nodded, satisfied, 'It seems, there is no danger in this inheritance. My bead spirit didn't warn me about any misfortune.'
He thought then picked up the jade and pasted it above his forehead; instantly, loads of information flowed through his mind.
He closed his eyes and started analyzing, storing, and rearranging the information in his mind.
...
A few days passed.
Lin Lee opened his eyes, and a wisdom light flickered through his pupil. He glanced at the empty room, and his gaze changed as he looked at everything. Each and everything in this tower is an immortal artifact; even the tower itself is a Top Spirit Class Immortal Artifact, which will belong to him after recognition.
"I have got a lot of top immortal art's now, and the art's I practiced previously are just low level in the immortal realm, except for a few of them. It seems nanobots are going to get busy again." Lin Lee muttered thoughtfully, n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Then I walked outside the room and glanced at the three-eyed squirrel sitting outside. "Are you male or female?" He asked suddenly,
Instantly, the squirrel was startled, and then his gray face turned black. Looking at Lin Lee angrily,
"Don't mind, I just don't want to misunderstand again." Lin Lee said, scratching his cheek and looking at it's angry expression,
"Listen, I am a primordial spirit-eye beast; our race has no gender." The squirrel replied sternly, standing proudly on hind legs,
Lin Lee felt funny, looking at it's gesture then said, "Senior Xuan said I should take care of you and name you."
"Really, Master said that to you." The squirrel was surprised, then asked curiously,
Lin Lee nodded calmly and said with a smile, "I will call you Zi after today; you are my second companion after Xing."
