Chapter 1745: The Spirit Patriarch’s Core Inheritance

An Lin was indeed an infuriating person. He had no integrity and no bottom line.

However, the Spirit Maiden couldn’t forget his warm and gentle smile when he placed her head back onto her body. In a time when she was suffering from an intense feeling of humiliation, that sight was like a ray of sunshine that shone into the deepest part of her heart. It was like a dazzling ray of sunshine that warmed up her entire body.

“O-Okay then…” the Spirit Maiden said in a stiff voice. “I’ve stood by my promise and completed my punishment now.” The Spirit Maiden used her soul power to heal the cut wound on her neck. She glanced at An Lin, then quickly turned her gaze elsewhere.

“Of course.” An Lin grinned and nodded. “Spirit Maiden, you’re someone who keeps their promises.”

The Spirit Maiden pursed her lips and remained silent. Right now, An Lin didn’t look so infuriating and detestable anymore.

An Lin turned his gaze back to the black stone slab. He picked up his soul power pen and carved out a “yes” under the question “Do you want to accept the Spirit Patriarch’s inheritance?”.

Rumble…

The black stone slab suddenly started to tremble violently.

Then, an orb of blue light suddenly drifted out from the skull of the silently seated Spirit Patriarch. This orb of blue light fused into the black stone slab and caused it to immediately shatter and explode!

An Lin felt a terrifying might sweep over him.

A creature that had a dragon head, a human torso, four arms, two legs, and a pair of phoenix wings suddenly appeared where the black stone slab had exploded. Its entire body was dim-blue, and it appeared as if it possessed an infinite amount of soul power.

It was clear that this creature was none other than the most supreme divine being of the Void Spirit Realm—the Spirit Patriarch.

“Congratulations, trial-taker… You’ve successfully passed my trial… You now have the right to inherit my most important legacies…” The Spirit Patriarch sounded like a male who had just woken from his sleep. His speech was languid, and every syllable that he spoke sounded long and dragged out. Moreover, there wasn’t a hint of emotion in his voice.

“Junior An Lin thanks the Spirit Patriarch.”

An Lin saluted respectfully as he said this.

He knew that the spirit body before him was a wisp of the Spirit Patriarch’s divine intent. This spirit body possessed a consciousness, yet this consciousness merely existed to pass the Spirit Patriarch’s inheritances on to a suitable successor.

“Master…” The Spirit Maiden became extremely emotional upon seeing this figure. Tears started to form in her eyes.

“Spirit Maiden, you’ve successfully completed your final task. You’ve helped me find a suitable successor. From this day onward, you’re free.” The Spirit Patriarch’s expression finally became much gentler as he looked toward the Spirit Maiden.

The Spirit Maiden wiped her tears away as she nodded.

Then, the Spirit Patriarch turned his gaze toward Xue Mengmeng. He couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh. “Brother Blood… you’ve ended up transforming into such a state. Dead, yet not dead…”

Xue Mengmeng scratched its skull as it looked at the remains of the Spirit Patriarch, which had also become nothing but a skeleton. “Brother Spirit, don’t mention it.” Xue Mengmeng also sighed. “At least I’m better off than you. My old bag of bones can still move. However, you’re already unable to move.”

The Spirit Patriarch shot a glare at Xue Mengmeng. “Why do I suddenly feel like hitting someone?”

“Do you want to debate for one last time?” Xue Mengmeng asked eagerly. “This is our last chance.”

A bright glimmer flashed across the Spirit Patriarch’s eyes. However, this glimmer disappeared as quickly as it had appeared. “Forget about it. In the past, we debated for tens of thousands of years over whether the divine sense or blood was the most important essence of life. Have we not debated enough already? I still need to leave some energy to pass on my inheritance…”

“That’s also fine by me.” Xue Mengmeng nodded.

“Say, did you help him complete my questions?” the Spirit Patriarch suddenly asked.

The expressions of Xue Mengmeng and An Lin both changed slightly. They couldn’t help but feel tense. It was as if they had been caught cheating by an examiner.

“Haha… Don’t be nervous…” The Spirit Patriarch looked toward An Lin mysteriously. “You were able to have Brother Blood voluntarily help you answer the questions. This precisely proves your extraordinary nature. This is also a destiny between you and me, which has been determined by the mystical nature of fate. So, I’m actually extremely happy that you’re able to accept my inheritance.”

An Lin and Xue Mengmeng both heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

The Spirit Maiden was also completely convinced. The core view of the Spirit Patriarch’s utterances was, surprisingly, exactly the same as An Lin’s shameless claims.

An Lin also formed an extremely good impression of the Spirit Patriarch. After all, this divine being was fairly reasonable and understanding. Moreover, he didn’t have any of the transcendent nature or aloof feel that ordinary supreme beings possessed. Instead, he seemed very unpretentious and cordial. He was like a diligent researcher, and even his smile appeared especially pure and rustic.

“Oh, that’s right. My inheritance is separated into two types. The first type is my research results of the divine sense. I dare say, no one in the Tai Chu Continent can exceed me in this field of research.”

The Spirit Patriarch finally displayed a sense of pride when talking about his research of the divine sense.

“The second type is the power of the divine sense that I left here. Once you absorb it, the power of your divine sense will undergo a true metamorphosis. Moreover, you’ll be able to peer into the true Heavenly Great Dao of the divine sense…”

An Lin couldn’t help but drool and nod furiously as he listened to this.

He knew that this was definitely an inheritance that all the beings of the Void Spirit Tribe dreamed of receiving.

“However, I have an unreasonable request to ask of you,” the Spirit Patriarch continued.

“Please do tell me your request,” An Lin said respectfully.

“An Lin, you’re not a soul-type cultivator, and it’s not a pressing need for you to obtain my research into the divine sense. However, Brother Blood is different. Currently, he only has a physical body and his consciousness. However, he doesn’t have a true divine sense. I want to give this inheritance to the Blood Patriarch so that he can use my knowledge to reconstruct his flesh body and divine sense. That way, he can become a genuine life form…”

An Lin was extremely startled. He never imagined that the Spirit Patriarch would ask such a request of him.

“Brother Spirit…” Xue Mengmeng’s mouth was agape, yet it didn’t know what to say.

“Okay, I agree.” An Lin didn’t think about it for long and immediately agreed to the Spirit Patriarch’s request.

Regardless of whether it was the Spirit Maiden, Xue Mengmeng, or the Spirit Patriarch, all of them were dazed by An Lin’s reply.

They were extremely surprised by how quickly An Lin had agreed to it.

“Hahaha… Brother Blood, you’ve managed to do something correctly. You’ve followed the right person.” The Spirit Patriarch appeared to be very happy, and there was a relaxed and carefree smile on his face.

“Of course I followed the right person. An Lin is the most perfect life form that I’ve ever seen.” Xue Mengmeng licked its lips as it said this.

“Oh? How unexpected. You’re actually giving another being such a high evaluation.” There was a look of surprise on the Spirit Patriarch’s face. He glanced at An Lin intently, yet he couldn’t discern anything unusual. He tapped a finger toward An Lin and said, “Come, accept my power…”

The passing down of inheritance officially began.

An Lin felt an overwhelming soul power surge through his forehead and into his divine sense.

Its vast nature was indescribable, and its purity was also indescribable.

This burst of soul power was the most powerful and purest soul power in the world.

An Lin saw an unprecedented dao appear before him. One’s divine sense could also form a dao. One’s divine sense could also create a perfect life form. One’s divine sense could also become immensely powerful!

An Lin’s divine sense trembled violently as it ferociously engulfed the power that was funneling toward it.

“Oh? Your divine sense was already very powerful to begin with…” The Spirit Patriarch’s eyes lit up. “Moreover, it’s in a stage of metamorphosis. In fact, it might have already completed its metamorphosis. So be it. I’ll help you reach an even higher level!”

Boom!

An Lin’s body shuddered. Then, a semi-transparent An Lin was slapped out of his body by the Spirit Patriarch!
