Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 6236: One Hundred Thousand Years

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was naturally impossible to blame him, and instead, they quickly comforted Jian Wushuang’s clone.

The two Universe Gods naturally ignored the Universe Master below them. After exchanging a few words, the Universe God of the Zhu family began to win over Jian Wushuang.

Jian Wushuang glanced at Xiang Yang and the others below, letting out a long sigh.

In the end, he followed the Universe God of the Zhu family and left directly for the Twilight Plains.

As for the Universe Master’s law body, it was placed within the Xiang family.

Through this rescue operation, Xiang Yang developed a great fondness for this newly accepted retainer.

In addition, having achieved a great merit this time, Jian Wushuang went into seclusion for three years upon returning to the family, successfully undergoing a tribulation to become a Ninth Tribulation Universe Master. Afterward, he hosted frequent feasts, small gatherings every three days, and large banquets every five days.

He constantly tried to win over Jian Wushuang.

During these gatherings, Jian Wushuang also expressed some of his needs; otherwise, it would have been too obvious.

If he had no desires or requests, and the other party was not a woman, who would work so hard?

Their relationship grew closer, but Jian Wushuang made no substantial progress within the Xiang family.

For example, regarding the matter of the Twilight Plains last time, he still had not found the cause.

However, he did see a real Blood Crystal from Xiang Yang.

This was even faster than the law body of the Universe God from the Zhu family.

From the Zhu family, he did not gain any benefits, but his knowledge greatly increased.

After all, the Zhu family was also a large and influential family.

Inherited families had accumulations passed down from generation to generation and knew many more secrets.

For instance, the Wild Ancient Domain on the surface.

One Emperor, Three Saints, Five Revered, and Ten Kings!

These corresponded to the Tomb of the Barbarian Emperor in the Wild Ancient Domain.

The Three Saints’ Graves!

The Five Revered Temples!

The Ten Kings’ Halls!

These were the strongest group of experts before the Realm God Continent was shattered.

The Barbarian Emperor was an existence who could kill a nine-star Universe God with a flick of his wrist.

The Three Saints were all Upper nine-star Gods.

They far surpassed ordinary nine-star Universe Gods and could easily crush ordinary nine-star Universe Gods.

The Five Revered were all peak nine-star Universe Gods.

The Ten Kings were also extraordinary.

There were so many famous nine-star Universe Gods.

It was imaginable how glorious the Realm God Continent was back then!

Beneath the surface, the Wild Ancient Domain had even greater legends.

The foremost legend was actually related to Jian Wushuang.

It was about the recent statue in the void.

The statue formed by his true self.

It had now become an object of exploration for all Universe Gods.

Jian Wushuang merely smiled at this and did not elaborate.

How could he not be aware of his true self’s matters?

Those bold Universe Gods were already standing on his shoulders, ready to pry open his divine body to study his true self.

He did not care much about this; his true self’s divine power was nearly infinite, and it did not matter if some was taken.

The most important thing was the current layout.

He needed to conduct a carpet search of the entire Wild Ancient Domain, not missing a single corner.

He had to investigate every strange event he encountered and all the rumored ones.

Currently, there were two main lines.

The Zhu family’s Twilight Plains and the familiar aura from the Xiang family.

Both needed thorough investigation.

In the blink of an eye, he had been lurking in the Wild Ancient Domain for a hundred thousand years.

Giant Deer City.

The Xiang Family!

As usual, Jian Wushuang was leisurely drinking tea in the small courtyard.

Outside, urgent shouts could be heard.

This time, it was still Dantai.

Since the last incident, he and Dantai had become Xiang Yang’s right-hand men, and over the years, following Xiang Yang had brought them many benefits.

Whenever there was a good opportunity, Xiang Yang would take the two of them along.

Dantai’s strength had also improved rapidly, and he was now almost a demigod.

In just a hundred thousand years, his divine power had increased by 5 million.

It now reached 45 million.

Jian Wushuang’s dharma body had also improved considerably, though it still felt somewhat ethereal compared to his true self.

“Come in!”

Since he was quite familiar with Dantai, Jian Wushuang didn’t stand up and continued sipping his tea.

Dantai entered the courtyard, looking anxious. He paced in front of Jian Wushuang and exclaimed, “Brother Wushuang, how can you still have the mood to drink tea? The inheritance tasks for the three main branches have been assigned, and Young Master Xiang Yang has encountered a major problem!”

The inheritance tasks were essentially modeled after those set by inheritance families.

The ancestor of the Xiang family was a three-star Universe God.

However, he had long since fallen, and the family was currently led by a two-star Universe God.

The inheritance left by the ancestor would be given to each direct descendant, but they needed to complete tasks to obtain it.

Moreover, the tasks were divided into several rounds.

Xiang Yang had already completed the fourth round of the Ninth Tribulation.

One would think that the inheritance he had obtained was sufficient, but human nature is never satisfied, and he insisted on participating in the fifth round of tasks.

This time, his opponents were the most elite Ninth Tribulation Universe Masters in the entire Xiang family.

Naturally, the tasks were also very difficult.

And this time, Xiang Yang was assigned the most challenging task.

He needed to go to the Twilight Plains to find the Rat Emperor’s nest.

Just thinking about the experiences in the Twilight Plains made Dantai shudder.

Not to mention Xiang Yang, who had almost died there once.

This was why he was so anxious.

After hearing the details, Jian Wushuang took a deep breath.

“Wasn’t the Rat Emperor slain? How can there still be this task?”

Dantai sighed, “The old Rat Emperor was killed by a predecessor, but a new Rat Emperor has been born. It may not be as powerful as the last one, but it’s still formidable. Moreover, this time the task is to find the nest and slay the Rat Emperor, making it ten times more dangerous than before. Isn’t this just courting death?”

“Indeed, it was impulsive!” Jian Wushuang also rose from his chair.

This dharma body had finally worked its way into Xiang Yang’s inner circle, so he couldn’t let Xiang Yang die.

He had originally advised Xiang Yang not to act so recklessly.

Completing the fourth round of the inheritance was already considered an A-class talent.

At the demigod level, he had the qualification to enter the ancestral land, which was enough for him.

If he really wanted to fight, he should wait until he was undergoing the Tribulation.

Right now, he wasn’t even a demigod. No matter how fiercely he fought, he wouldn’t gain much.

Why risk his life?

But since the task had already been accepted, he had no choice but to help Young Master Xiang Yang plan.

He followed Dantai to Xiang Yang’s courtyard.

There were already quite a few people gathered there.

In addition to several familiar retainers, Xiang Yang’s mother and older brother were also present.

Before even entering the main house, they heard a loud, angry shout.

“Xiang Yang, do you know what you’re doing?”

The speaker was Xiang Yang’s older brother, “Xiang Mu.”

His strength far surpassed Xiang Yang’s; he was already a demigod with 60 million divine power.

Back then, he had only taken on the fourth round of tasks.

The fact that his younger brother could keep up with him was already impressive.

There weren’t many geniuses in the three main branches, and Xiang Yang’s achievements were enough to secure his place. There was no need to push himself so hard.

The fifth round of tasks could only be completed by the top geniuses of each branch.

And too many had perished attempting it.ff
