Chapter 209: Another Immortal

After killing the magical beast, Lin Hao started to search his surroundings so that he could found the guy who was controlling the magical beast.

"If you are searching for me then don't bother! You can not find me with your current strength."

Suddenly, Lin Hao heard an old hoarse voice coming from every direction. He looked here and there but still, he was unable to see anyone.

"Who are you? Why are you not coming in front of me?" Lin Hao asked coldly as he tried to find the person who just spoke.

"Sigh! I was waiting here for hundreds of thousands of years for a fated person but even after waiting for this long, no one came. Then suddenly, eight months ago, I felt the fluctuation in space and sensed many peoples appearing here. After eight months of waiting, you are the third person to come here and the first person to clear my test."

That old and hoarse voice once again echoed out from every direction. Whoever that person was, he ignored Lin Hao's question and continue to say what he had to say.

Lin Hao opened his mouth in confusion to ask something but before he could ask anything, that old voice once again sounded, saying, "Little fellow, help me one thing and I will accept you as my disciple!"

"I don't even know you yet you want me to accept you as my master. You really are a good dreamer!" Lin Hao said coldly then he arrived before Ye Xiao, loaded him on his back once again, and prepared to leave this place.

He has a hunch that this old man is definitely a very terrifying existence, maybe more terrifying than the giant he and Ye Xiao fought against before.

"You are misunderstanding something here. I am not telling you to accept me as your master, I am saying that if you could help me with one thing, I will accept you as my disciple. You might not know but this is the greatest gift I could give you right now!"

That old man once again said. Lin Hao stopped and thought for a moment then said, "Tell me everything clearly what you want. I don't have time to play a game of guessing. If you want my help then first tell me who are you? Why are you here for hundreds of thousands of years? Are you an Immortal and What kind of help you want from me?"

"Hahaha... You are a straightforward person, I like it!" That old man started to laugh when he heard Lin Hao and then said, "My name is Yang Wu and yes, I am an Immortal. I will not tell you my story, you just need to know that I was sealed here in the lower realm by my enemies, and to prevent anyone from unsealing the seal, they destroyed the large part of that land where they sealed me, creating this Secret Realm."

"I was sealed here for hundreds of thousands of years, waiting for the one who could unseal the seal. I am not sure if you could unseal that seal but there is a high probability that you could."

"To unseal the seal that is sealing me down here, you have to enter a very dangerous place, fight with many terrifying beasts but in those process, you might also find some good things that could help you break through to the Martial Emperor Realm!"

"If you are unsuccessful in unsealing me, you will definitely die at that place but if you are successful, you will gain the opportunity to be my disciple. From the moment of my birth till now, I have never accepted a disciple. Becoming a disciple of an Immortal is already very fortunate for you, let alone a disciple of an Immortal King like me!"

"Not only will I accept you as my disciple, but I will also bring you to the Upper Realm with me. There, you can cultivate much faster with the resources I will bestow upon you!"

That old man finished what he has to say and listening to him, Lin Hao was shocked. If he were to successfully unseal the seal, not only can he become a disciple of an Immortal, he could also go to the Upper Realm to cultivate without any need to cultivate to the limit of Azure Sky Continent.

This offer was really very enchanting but he still remained calm and asked, "Why should I believe you? You are an Immortal, after being released, you could kill me as if you are killing an ant, so why should I believe that you will accept me as your disciple and bring me to the Upper Realm?"

"Hmm, that is a nice question. Why should you believe me? Well, I have no way to make you believe me and it is not like I am forcing you to enter that dangerous place and unseal the seal. It is your choice if you want to go there or not. I will not force you."

"Although I don't have a way to make you believe me, you could take a risk. Maybe, what I am saying is true!"

The old man once again said and from his way of talking, Lin Hao understood that he was the one to make a choice. If he were to take this risk, he might be able to go to the Upper Realm and cultivate there with the help of this old man. But there was also a possibility that the old man will kill him after being released.

After thinking for a very long time, Lin Hao finally made a decision and said, "I have three conditions and if you promise to fulfill them, I can give it a try to unseal you!"

"What are your conditions?" That old man's voice echoed from every direction once again.

"My first condition is that you have to bring one more person with me to the Upper Realm!" Lin Hao answered.

"Is the person you are talking about the person on your back?" That old man asked.

"No, he is not the one!" Lin Hao shook his head.

"Ok, I promise. Tell me your other two conditions!" That old man accepted the first condition and promised Lin Hao.

"My second condition is that you have to wait until the Secret Realm closes before you will bring me and another person to the Upper Realm. There is something I need to do before I could go to the Upper Realm without any need to worry about anything!"

"Good, I agree!"

Lin Hao told his second condition and that old man once again agreed with his second without hesitation.

"My third condition is to see if you could help him with his current condition!"

"I refuse!"

Lin Hao told his third condition which was about Ye Xiao but unfortunately, the old man refused bluntly.

"What? Why?" Lin Hao was surprised that the old man actually refused. His way of thinking was that since this old man was an Immortal, he could help Ye Xiao but to his surprise, that old man actually refused to agree with his third condition.

"Because I can not treat him. I can feel the power of the world within his body which is colliding with his own spiritual energy. He was definitely injured by an Immortal. Six months ago, I sensed the power of the world and maybe it was during that time when this little fellow was injured."

"If it was only the power of the world, I could still help him but the current situation inside his body and dantian is very chaotic. To help him, you will need an Immortal Rank spirit herb which can only be found in the Upper Realm, not here. So, I am unable to help in any way!"

The old man explained to Lin Hao why he refused to accept his third condition. Lin Hao was confused when he heard the old man talking about the power of the world. From what he remembered, Ye Xiao was never struck with the power of the world by the giant.

Then he suddenly remembered that when the giant and Ye Xiao both fell down on the ground and the giant became a mortal, he was shouting, "What have you done with my world?"

It means that during that terrifying collision when Ye Xiao transformed into a dragon and a black hole like fissure appeared in front of his large mouth, something must have happened and that is definitely related to the power of the world.

Thinking till here, Lin Hao took a long breath then he said, "Ok, I agree to help you. Tell me how to I enter the place you have talked about and how can I unseal the seal that is sealing you here for hundreds of thousands of years!"

After thinking about many things, Lin Hao finally agreed to help the old man. As for Ye Xiao, he thought that he would bring Ye Xiao out and give him to his master, Grandmaster Wang.
