Chapter 79: The Legacy of Emperor Xingchen, The Appearance of Du Guxiong

“Ding, congratulations on successfully slacking off, you have obtained the legacy of Emperor Xingchen!”

The notification sound slowly rang out, startling Jiang Chen to stand up abruptly, which in turn woke up Qin Yao, who was sleeping. Rubbing her eyes, she looked confused, “What’s wrong, Jiang Chen? Is there an enemy attack?”

“It’s nothing, continue sleeping,” Jiang Chen said, trying to suppress his excitement with a smile.

“Oh,” Qin Yao responded and then continued to sleep on Jiang Chen’s lap.

“Can I really slack off successfully like this? Could it be because I didn’t interfere with the inheritance?” Jiang Chen was somewhat bewildered.

Initially, after acquiring the Heart of the Holy Spirit, he was prepared not to slack off, especially since this was just a minor storyline. He didn’t pay much attention to it, thinking that the rewards for such a minor storyline wouldn’t be too high.

Unexpectedly, he succeeded in slacking off and even obtained the legacy of an emperor. This caught Jiang Chen completely off guard.

“It seems that slacking off isn’t about an entire storyline but about not interfering or not doing certain specific things, then rewards can be obtained?” Discovering this, Jiang Chen was ecstatic.

If so, he would have many choices in the future. In some storylines, he could choose not to interfere with the most important things.

“The legacy of Emperor Xingchen, I wonder what it is!” After pondering for a moment, Jiang Chen began to accept the legacy of Emperor Xingchen.

Almost instantly, vast scriptures flooded into Jiang Chen’s mind like a breaking dam. Each scripture was extremely complex, bearing the entire life’s Dao of Emperor Xingchen:

Emperor Xingchen Scripture, Eighteen Divine Techniques of the Starry Sea, Starry Array, Ancient Scripture of Starry Void.

The legacy of Emperor Xingchen was unimaginable, with dozens of divine techniques and secret methods. Each one was the result of Emperor Xingchen’s lifelong study and comprehension of the Dao.

They encompassed everything, not just Emperor Xingchen’s own Starry Dao but also involved countless other Daos, such as the Dao of Void, the Dao of Yin and Yang, the Dao of Destiny, and even the Dao of Time and Space!

Among them, Emperor Xingchen Scripture was the foundation, while Eighteen Divine Techniques of the Starry Sea were branches spreading from the Dao, and other insights into alchemy, artifact crafting, and array formations were like leaves, forming a towering immortal tree.

“Star Brilliance” – Enhancing one’s combat power tenfold in all aspects, whether it be physical body or soul.

“I didn’t expect Emperor Xingchen to have such a divine technique!” Jiang Chen was amazed by the effect of Star Brilliance.

Such techniques that enhance combat power are extremely rare, involving countless Daos, and not something that can be improved upon at will. Creating such a technique requires profound comprehension of the Dao, extraordinary talent, and certain opportunities.

This legacy was an unexpected joy for Jiang Chen. Originally, he planned to go after the Saint Realm inheritance after Yan Ruyu’s emergence. Now, it seems unnecessary to care about whether he gets it or not.

Moreover, the system reward indicates that the other party has already received the inheritance and left. Therefore, Jiang Chen doesn’t bother to chase after it, thinking it’s not a big deal if he can find another opportunity for Yan Ruyu later.

As Yan Ruyu’s area erupted with a roar, enveloping her world with black and white divine lights, the world trembled under the majesty of Dao. After a day and night, it seemed Yan Ruyu had finally finished her inheritance.

Yan Ruyu, now exuding a transcendent aura, completely different from her former charm, seemed like an immortal from myths, sacred and flawless.

If she was considered a calamity for countries before, now she seemed like a pure and untouchable goddess.

Feeling vastly different and potentially on par with the descendants of the ancient royal families, Yan Ruyu expressed confidence in her new strength, although Jiang Chen reminded her of the reality of their realm differences.

Du Guyun’s rapid advancement was also due to his countless brushes with death and numerous opportunities that allowed him to reach this stage.

This left Canglao extremely shocked. His disciple, aside from everything else, was truly fortunate. No matter where he went, he gained something, even if it was dangerous and tiring. But every time, he managed to turn danger into safety.

“Jiang Chen again!” Hearing the discussions around him, Du Guyun, who was already exhausted, became numb. Recently, wherever he went, he heard talks about Jiang Chen.

An omnipresent shadow, no matter what he did, as soon as he went where people gathered, there would be discussions about Jiang Chen! This stirred waves in Du Guyun’s heart, and he couldn’t help but feel angry.

Why was Jiang Chen everywhere? He couldn’t accept it and felt upset, but there was nothing he could do.

“Have you heard? The Supreme Elder of Yang Sect was slain, and it was by a young man in the Great Master Realm Triple Layer!”

“I heard. Some suspect it was the Primordial Holy Son!”

“Really? The Primordial Holy Son came here?”

“It should be true. Who else but the Primordial Holy Son could achieve killing a quasi-Saint in the Great Master Realm Triple Layer?”

“Moreover, when this person made his move, it was with ease, playing the Supreme Elder in his palm, and killing him in a few moves!”

“It’s outrageous for the Great Master Realm to easily slay a quasi-Saint!”

“We can’t comprehend the world of monsters!”

“I think even those geniuses can’t understand!”

“That’s true. In that case, aren’t we all geniuses?”

“Ha ha ha, if you count it like that, why not?”

Jiang Chen is nearby? And he killed a Near-Saint?

Du Guyun’s face stiffened, and his feelings were complicated. Shocked, but also filled with despair. “I struggle to kill a True King, and now he can kill quasi-Saints! If this continues for a few more decades, wouldn’t he be able to kill Saints?” Du Guyun couldn’t help but say.

“If there’s no accident with Jiang Chen, theoretically, he could do it!”

“This Primordial Holy Son is indeed a rare monster in ten thousand years. At his age, even Emperors might not be his match!” Canglao, having seen much, was still endlessly shocked by Jiang Chen’s monstrous level. He had never seen or heard of such a monster before.

A Great Master Realm easily killing a quasi-Saint as if drinking water. What kind of monster is this?

“Master, can I still surpass him?” Du Guyun felt desperate and powerless.

When Jiang Chen was in the True King Realm, he was very confident. Feeling he could surpass the other. Now, with constant news about Jiang Chen, he felt increasingly powerless.

Because the gap between him and Jiang Chen was growing wider, to the point where he could no longer see the end.

Meanwhile, Just as Du Guyun despaired, a refined-looking man who bore a resemblance to Du Guyun stood in front of him. “Do you really want to surpass Jiang Chen?”

Du Guyun immediately became alert, looking at the man before him and coldly said, “Who are you?”

“Oh, let me introduce myself! My name is Du Guxiiong, your father!” The refined man smiled gently.
