Chapter 654: The Ten Thousand Races Arrive, Ye Hei Is Completely Baffled (4/7, Request Subscription)
Ye Hei suddenly felt a huge black pot landing on his head.
Since arriving in Beidou, he'd become a Monk, never even holding a woman's hand.
Love debts? Where did that even come from!
"Huh, a radiant aura!" Suddenly, Ye Hei spotted the key point. "Are you an heir of the Light Clan, or of Shenxu Cave Heaven?"
Weiwei gasped: "You actually know Shenxu Cave Heaven has a legacy of the Ancient Light Scripture?"
Pangbo was stunned: "Miss, are you from Shenxu Cave Heaven?"
Weiwei nodded: "I'm Weiwei, a disciple of Shenxu Cave Heaven."
"You're probably not just an ordinary disciple," Ye Hei smiled. "The legacy left by the Dao Jun—how could a common disciple possibly be qualified to cultivate it?"
Weiwei neither denied nor confirmed, saying: "~That's not important."
As she spoke, she stepped closer, her gaze sharpening.
"You cultivate the Immortal Martial Dao? So powerful—in such a short time, you've reached this level. The Dao Jun's legacy is truly remarkable!"
Ye Hei was utterly baffled by the woman before him and asked: "Miss, did you come here just to watch me cultivate the legacy?"
"Exactly," Weiwei nodded. "As a legacy heir of the Dao Jun, I must protect his reputation. If anyone dares tarnish the Dao Jun's name, Weiwei will not allow it."
"Miss Weiwei speaks truly."
A bright, hearty laugh rang out, and the next moment, a long rainbow descended, leaving a tall, slender man standing on Changjie.
The man had an eerie aura, with vertical pupils that gave off a cold impression.
A green scale on his brow shimmered with golden luster, perfectly matching his demeanor.
The cold aura combined with the scale gave the man an air of imposing superiority.
"It's the Snake People!"
Black Dog's eyes shifted. "Legend says the ancestors of the Snake People once pledged allegiance to the Dao Jun and left behind an unparalleled Jin Dan legacy."
Ye Hei looked over and confirmed: the man's aura was complete, not a single thread leaking out.
This was unmistakably the unique spiritual resonance of the Jin Dan Dao.
Weiwei was surprised: "The Snake People have come to Beidou too?"
"Greetings, all," the Snake Person stepped forward, bowing politely. "I am Qingzhu of the Snake People."
Ye Hei nodded in return and asked: "Brother Qingzhu, did you come here because of my status as the Dao Jun's legacy heir?"
Qingzhu nodded: "Correct! But seeing your aura, your claim as the Dao Jun's heir is genuine. As long as you don't tarnish the Dao Jun's name, you're fully entitled to it."
"Still, there's one thing I don't understand. Do you know the truth behind it?"
"Our ancestors recorded that our Patriarch sighed before ascending, lamenting he could not reach the Earth Immortal Realm. Isn't the Earth Immortal Realm the place our Patriarch was meant to ascend to?"
Black Dog laughed triumphantly: "The Earth Immortal Realm is certainly not where the Taixuan Sect ascended to."
Qingzhu became interested: "Brother, do you know the truth behind this?"
"Of course I do," Black Dog boasted. "But are we really going to talk about this on the street?"
Qingzhu smiled: "Then let me treat you—shall we go to a tavern and discuss it?"
He turned to Weiwei and invited: "We're all heirs of the Dao Jun—why not join us?"
Weiwei nodded: "That works. I'm curious about the Earth Immortal Realm too!"
The group entered the tavern and ordered a full table of fine dishes.
Only then did Black Dog turn to Qingzhu and ask: "Do you know what the World is?"
Qingzhu was startled: "The World?"
"Yes," Black Dog said proudly. "Ordinary cultivators train within the World, but the Dao Jun is a being capable of creating heaven and earth—the lord of an entire world. The Earth Immortal Realm is the immortal realm the Dao Jun forged. Its immortal qi is thick; even ordinary mortals can live for hundreds of years. Cultivators find it easy to achieve immortality."
"Is it any wonder your ancestor regretted not ascending to the Earth Immortal Realm?"
"That's the world the Dao Jun created. If he'd gone there, he'd have been like the Dao Jun's direct heir—no lack of fortune or immortal qi. Far better than ascending to the upper realms of our own world."
Qingzhu was utterly stunned.
He hadn't realized the Earth Immortal Realm wasn't the upper realm of this world, but a world created by his Patriarch.
"No wonder my ancestor felt such regret," Qingzhu sighed. "Not only could he not gain the blessings of the Patriarch's world, he could never pay homage to him regularly."
The Snake People were once merely a mid-tier force; decades of millennia ago, their Patriarch joined the Taixuan Sect and received the Jin Dan Dao legacy, rising to become one of the strongest among the Ten Thousand Races.
