Immortal God of War

Chapter 997 - 945: The Elder’s Assistance

"Senior Sister?"

Qin Feiyang was surprised and looked at the General Tower Master, saying, "So, are you a disciple of the second generation General Tower Master?"

"Yes."

"But because my talent is far inferior to my senior sister, my master passed the position of General Tower Master to her."

"Until ten thousand years ago, when my senior sister met an untimely demise and had no successor, everyone asked me to take on the role of General Tower Master."

"If my senior sister were still around, the Elixir Tower would probably be a different sight today."

The General Tower Master sighed, a touch of indescribable melancholy between his brows.

"Met an untimely demise?"

Qin Feiyang was puzzled and curious.

Who would dare harm the dignified Tower Master?

But he also knew what should and shouldn’t be asked.

"Hoo!"

The General Tower Master took a deep breath to calm his emotions, then looked at Qin Feiyang and asked, "Do you know why I brought you here?"

Qin Feiyang shook his head.

"In our General Tower, there’s always been a rule that only those who receive the inheritance of the predecessors can become disciples of the General Tower Master."

said the General Tower Master.

"So it is an inheritance!"

Qin Feiyang secretly rejoiced.

Because receiving an inheritance inevitably brings great benefits.

The General Tower Master said, "Now, as long as you can obtain the inheritance of any previous General Tower Master, I will officially take you as my disciple."

Qin Feiyang glanced at the three divine statues, then looked at the statue of the ancestor, and asked suspiciously, "And whose statue is that?"

This question seemed to touch a nerve for the General Tower Master, whose gaze instantly darkened.

Even his hands clenched tightly within his sleeves.

"Hm?"

Qin Feiyang was puzzled and curious.

What does this mean?

Could it be that the General Tower and the ancestor were enemies?

But that can’t be right. If they were really enemies, the General Tower certainly wouldn’t allow the ancestor’s statue to be placed in this inheritance site.

What secret is hidden here?

Qin Feiyang glanced sideways at Young Master Hao and transmitted, "Brother Hao, do you know?"

"I don’t know."

"I’ve been here a few times before, and the statue is not unfamiliar, but my father never told me specifically who it is."

Young Master Hao replied secretly.

"It seems there’s definitely some story behind this."

Qin Feiyang muttered.

The General Tower Master looked at the statue of the first emperor, remained silent for a moment, then said lightly, "He was a renowned and powerful figure, but not related to the inheritance."

"Oh."

Qin Feiyang nodded and didn’t continue asking.

The General Tower Master withdrew his gaze, looked at Qin Feiyang and Young Master Hao, and asked, "Which of you two will go first to accept the inheritance?"

Qin Feiyang smiled and said, "Brother Hao, please go first. After all, you are the host."

"Then I won’t stand on ceremony."

Young Master Hao excitedly walked before the three divine statues and bowed deeply to each.

Then.

He retreated more than ten meters, stood directly in front of the three divine statues, bowed remotely, then pricked his finger, and three drops of fresh blood floated up and were absorbed into the foreheads of the three statues.

Next.

Young Master Hao closed his eyes, appearing extremely devout.

"This inheritance requires blood to activate?"

Qin Feiyang was puzzled and curious.

This form might not mean much to others, but to him, it’s quite a headache.

Because his Purple Gold Dragon Blood is too unique.

And the General Tower Master, judging by the previous expression, surely knows the first emperor.

Since they are acquainted, there’s a good chance he also knows that the first emperor’s blood is Purple Gold Dragon Blood.

In that case, when the General Tower Master sees that he also has Purple Gold Dragon Blood, he’ll certainly associate him with the ancestor.

How will he explain then?

Buzz!

Suddenly.

The statue of the second General Tower Master emitted a faint, misty light.

"Succeeded?"

Qin Feiyang quickly looked over, eyes full of astonishment and suspicion.

At the same time.

The General Tower Master also looked up at the statue, unable to hide the joy on his face.

Almost the next moment, a white divine light shot out from the statue’s forehead, entering Young Master Hao’s top of the head like lightning.

Young Master Hao immediately entered a state of ethereal transience.

After a hundred breaths or so, the light on the statue began to slowly fade away.

But Young Master Hao showed no signs of waking.

Until another hundred breaths passed, he suddenly opened his eyes, two bright glints bursting forth.

"How was it?"

The General Tower Master hurriedly walked up and asked.

Young Master Hao looked up at the General Tower Master, a touch of mischief flashing in his eyes, then slowly stood up and said dejectedly, "I only inherited a lower class battle art."

"What?"

The General Tower Master’s face turned pale.

At the same time.

The three old men also opened their eyes, their old eyes full of doubt.

Qin Feiyang was also astonished.

Lower class battle art?

What a joke, who would leave a lower class battle art for their descendants?

Young Master Hao glanced at Qin Feiyang and the others, then looked at the General Tower Master and sighed, "I’m sorry to disappoint you."

"Alas!"

The General Tower Master looked at Young Master Hao, finally letting out a long sigh, his expression extremely despondent.

He seemed to have aged over ten years in an instant.

"Haha..."

But suddenly.

Young Master Hao laughed heartily, "Old man, I tricked you. I received a Divine Art."

"Divine Art?"

The General Tower Master was stunned.

"You didn’t expect that, did you? You’ve been deceived by me once..."

"Haha..."

"It feels great..."

Young Master Hao couldn’t stop laughing, a teasing smile at the corner of his mouth.

"You little rascal!"

The General Tower Master was suddenly furious and gave Young Master Hao a slap on the head, making him wince in pain.

"Serves him right."

The three elders glanced at Young Master Hao with schadenfreude and then closed their eyes again.

Meanwhile.

Qin Feiyang looked at Young Master Hao, his eyes flickering with a sharp glint.

Little did he expect that what was inherited was actually a Divine Art!

This is an incredibly tempting offer!

Now he feels more at a loss about what choice to make.

Accept the legacy?

But what if the General Tower Master recognizes the purple golden dragon blood?

Actually.

Exposure of the purple golden dragon blood will not reveal his identity for now.

Because.

He has just awakened the purple dragon blood, and only the Mu Family knows about it throughout the Forgotten Continent.

So as long as the Mu Family doesn’t speak, even if the purple dragon blood is exposed, people won’t associate him with being Qin Feiyang.

However!

He must consider his relationship with his ancestors.

If the General Tower Master truly knows the ancestors also had purple dragon blood, or if the General Tower Master harbors hostility towards the ancestors, once he reveals the purple dragon blood, he will certainly arouse suspicion from the General Tower Master.

At that time, he will inevitably be forced to reveal his identity.

If it were someone else, he might fabricate an excuse to muddle through.

But this General Tower Master, from the moment he wrote the character ’Silence’, Qin Feiyang already knew he wasn’t a simple character.

Hedging? It will probably have the opposite effect.

But giving up, he feels reluctant.

Because he has worked so hard, just for this moment.

What’s more, there’s a strong chance to obtain the Divine Art.

Moreover.

The mysterious lady also mentioned that the Five-Colored Crystal Stone is on the General Tower Master. Without becoming his disciple, there’s no chance to make a move.

What should he do?

Qin Feiyang’s mind is somewhat chaotic.

The General Tower Master chastised Young Master Hao a bit, then turned to Qin Feiyang with a chuckle, "It’s your turn."

It was evident that he was very happy and satisfied at the moment.

"Go for it."

Young Master Hao also looked at Qin Feiyang, giving him an encouraging look.

Qin Feiyang looked at those three statues, appearing calm on the surface but internally engaged in a deep struggle.

"What are you standing there for? Go ahead, maybe you’ll also obtain a Divine Art!"

Young Master Hao urged upon seeing Qin Feiyang hesitate.

"Divine Art isn’t so easily obtained."

Qin Feiyang sighed with a bitter smile.

"How would you know unless you try?"

Young Master Hao glanced at him, walked behind Qin Feiyang, and forcefully pushed him toward the statues.

"Alright, alright, I’ll walk by myself."

Qin Feiyang glanced helplessly at him, then walked to the three statues and saluted them one by one, just like Young Master Hao.

Afterward.

He walked to the place where Young Master Hao accepted the legacy and turned to look at the three statues, exhaling a long breath.

He decided to take a gamble!

Because if he regrets now, it will arouse suspicion from the General Tower Master.

Just as Qin Feiyang lifted his arm, preparing to cut open his fingertip, the elder sitting cross-legged beneath the first General Tower Master suddenly opened his eyes and said to Qin Feiyang, "Hold on."

"Huh?"

Qin Feiyang’s heart tightened.

Could it be that he was already seen through before he even started?

The General Tower Master, Young Master Hao, and the other two elders also opened their eyes in succession, looking puzzled at the elder.

The elder rasped out, "I have a few words to say to him alone. Could you all leave for a moment?"

"Alone?"

The General Tower Master and the others exchanged looks filled with suspicion.

The elder said, "It won’t take much time."

"Alright!"

The other two elders got up, transformed into a stream of light, and disappeared lightning-fast into the mountain stream below.

With the two patriarchs gone, the General Tower Master naturally dared not say much.

With a wave, he quickly took Young Master Hao into the mountain stream below.

Qin Feiyang subtly frowned, looking at the elder, puzzled as he asked, "Senior, what do you mean by this?"

The elder said, "First answer this: what are you hesitating about?"

Qin Feiyang’s pupils shrunk.

"Let’s not waste time with idle chatter, quickly initiate the legacy while they are away!"

The elder spoke calmly.

"Huh?"

Qin Feiyang was surprised and suspicious.

This elder was actually helping him!

But why?

"Hurry!"

The elder urged.

"Okay, okay."

Qin Feiyang nodded repeatedly, promptly cut open his fingertip, and three drops of purple golden dragon blood seeped out, merging into the foreheads of the three statues instantly.

Watching the purple dragon blood, a faint and imperceptible glint flashed in the elder’s eyes.

"You can come up now."

Afterward.

The elder called out to the four in the mountain stream, shut his eyes, and withdrew into silence.

"Thank you, senior."

Qin Feiyang bowed deeply, then sat cross-legged on the ground, closing his eyes.

Although puzzled, he knew even if he asked, the elder might not tell him, so there was no need to waste time.

Soon after the voice fell, the General Tower Master and the four returned to the mountain summit one after another.

Seeing Qin Feiyang in the process of accepting the legacy, none of them disturbed him.

Time flows slowly.

After roughly three hundred breaths, the three statues hadn’t moved at all.

"What’s going on?"

"Did he fail?"

Young Master Hao murmured, furrowing his brows tightly.

"The legacy here requires a person with destiny to obtain it."

"And clearly, this young man wasn’t a person of destiny."

The General Tower Master whispered, revealing a trace of regret in his expression.

He was quite satisfied with Qin Feiyang.

But if he couldn’t obtain the legacy, then no matter how good his talent was, he saw no value in further cultivation.
