Chapter 373: Chapter 290: Little Dot, We Meet Again (Part 3) (1st Update)_1
In the essence blood of the Inheritor of the Immortal Palace, a dazzling silver radiance lingered. It was like the pale moonlight sprinkled by the moon, circulating a mysterious and ancient power. It was as if an immortal and terrifying creature was slowly awakening, overlooking the creatures of the world.
This blood was extraordinary, even a drop of it was comparable to some great elixirs.
But at this moment, all the energy that was seeping out was being madly absorbed by Lin Hai, without wasting a single bit.
He was like a sponge, craving for nourishment, starving and thirsty. The young adult of the Immortal Palace was like the most precious spiritual fluid in the world, holding a direct temptation for the former.
Lin Hai’s actions seemed bizarre, picking up someone else’s arm and gnawing it. It made it seem as if he’d gone mad. However, after some consideration, Lin Zhuang and the others didn’t try to stop him.
They were all familiar with Hai Wa Zhi’s potential. Although it hadn’t fully manifested yet, it was on par with Gu Wa Zi’s, catching the attention of the Willow God. Lin Hai, who had been given supreme opportunities that they couldn’t even imagine, was the one favoured by the Lord Willow God.
Perhaps, that opportunity was playing its role now.
Most importantly, they could clearly see that the Flame Mark at the center of Lin Hai’s brow was even more dazzling. It seemed as if it was about to burst through his body, turning into a real blazing flame, raging incessantly, burning up the heaven and earth.
Clearly, the young man had benefited from the essence blood of the Inheritor of the Immortal Palace, otherwise he wouldn’t be so extraordinary.
“You madman, all of you are madmen! You’re all lunatics, you should die, all of you should die!”
The young adult from the Immortal Palace had his hairs all over the place, and the white robe he had just changed into was once again soaked with strikingly red blood.
He scolded in a furious rage, but there was a trace of unprecedented horror on his face.
The immortal blood within his body was his vital essence. If he were to lose it, although he would still be considered a First-Generation Prodigy Level, it would be impossible for him to recover to his peak state.
Feeling the rapid depletion of the immortal blood within his body, a sense of unprecedented despair emerged in the heart of the Inheritor of the Immortal Palace. The boy on his back was like a plaster that he couldn’t shake off no matter what he did, leaving him exhausted instead.
In the end, with a face full of grief and indignation, the young man from the Immortal Palace chose to self-detonate. He owned a supreme treasure that allowed him to cheat death once. Although it was a pity to use it at this time, it was still better than having all his immortal blood sucked dry.
In the air, a loud explosion sounded, and the body of the Inheritor of the Immortal Palace instantly turned into a dazzling Aurora, scattering like the most splendid fireworks, with runes overflowing and eventually disappearing into the void.
“This young lad looks quite young. How can he be so impatient? Such a minor issue made him explode!”
“Lin’s second brother muttered completely believing that his grandnephew must have advanced by obtaining something from the essence blood of the Inheritor of the Immortal Palace because the latter appeared even more sacred now, giving off a sense of wilderness.
Had they known that the Inheritor of the Immortal Palace would self-explode, they should’ve all attacked together, tied up the opponent, and drained all the blood first.
Lin’s second brother prided himself on being proficient in bloodletting.
Whenever there was a festival or ceremony in the village, he was the one who drained the blood from the oxen, sheep, and pigs, ensuring it was done quickly and accurately.
“He must have a life-saving technique or cultivated a life-saving Divine Skills within his body, which is why he didn’t truly fall. But in order to escape, he had to resort to this method!”
Lin Zhuang raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Lin’s second brother, and said.
He had studied the books stored in the village and knew that there were all kinds of strange and mysterious treasures and Divine Skills in this world that could grant cultivators a second life.
However, these methods were rare and generally considered secrets, making them hard to find.
“Brother, is there really such a sinister thing? If we ever get a chance, we should get our hands on some!” Lin’s second brother’s eyes lit up.
“If there is, we definitely need to get some. But I’m not very sure if the other party really has them because it’s a little different from what’s described in the ancient texts!” Lin Zhuang non-committally nodded, and then shook his head again.
After all, the ancient texts merely provided written records, with many descriptions being simplified.
Just when they were puzzled.
Someone stepped forward and explained the reason to Lin Zhuang and others.
As Lin’s eldest brother had said, the Inheritor from the Immortal Palace did not fall, he was still alive.
Every First Generation who ascended the shrine would receive a mysterious beast tooth.
This was a rare and uncommon life talisman, brought out from the Secret Realm in the past. It had the miraculous effect of substituting death. If one was killed in the Secret Realm, they could be transferred back to the shrine, at which point they could choose to re-enter or leave the Secret Realm.
Each First Generation was extremely rare and expected. Their fathers or mothers were amongst the most evolved beings of that time. They carried an unprecedented bloodline within their bodies, possessing powerful talents, terrifying strength and could independently evolve into a new race.
The one who answered was a young man who, although not as exceptional as the First Generation, was quite substantial. Otherwise, he would not have qualified to enter the Secret Realm.
At the moment, he looked at Lin Zhuang with a smile, obviously being astonished by him and hoping to make friends.
Many people in the audience actually felt the same way, but only the young man stood up. Most people were hesitant because the group in front of them, although extraordinary, had offended the Inheritor of the Immortal Palace. This was equivalent to making an enemy out of the Immortal Palace.
That was undoubtedly an immortal force, born at the dawn of the universe and had survived an incredibly long period. Its bottom line was terrifying.
The Immortal Palace had few people in the world, but each of them was extremely terrifying and strong, especially their tendency to seek revenge for the smallest grievance. It was feared that this group of people would be retaliated by the Immortal Palace soon. Many people were worried that if they pledged their loyalty now, they would be implicated in the future.
The Immortal Palace was indeed too terrifying, suppressing everything. It was mysterious and ancient. There was even a rumour that the Immortal Palace was named as such because it did possess the highest, eternal, unending, and immortal being.
“Thank you, brother, for explaining. My name is Lin Zhuang, and this is my second brother, Lin Chen!” Lin Zhuang chuckled with his fist in his palm.
During his time in the Lower Realm, he had heard some legends about the Immortal Palace. The latter had even sent a deity to Stone Village once, but it was slain by a child from the village.
He knew in his heart that it was a terrifying giant force. At this moment, the young man was explaining to them which showed a lot of sincerity.
Hence Lin Zhuang announced his name, indicating that he valued this young man’s virtues.
“So it’s Brother Zhuang. If Brother Zhuang doesn’t mind, you can call me Kirin Child. However, I’m not a real Kylin. It’s just that my clan named me hoping I could be like a Kylin, thriving and ascending to the pinnacle!”
The young man said with a smile.
Real Kylin is recognized as one of the Ten Evils. Once it goes wild, it can even turn an entire Race upside down. The offspring of such creatures, at the very least, will be on the First-Generation Level.
