Chapter 2398: Ten Years Later (1/2)
After sending Chen Zhi and the Departing Sword Sage out to serve as guards, Huang Xiaolong opened the restrictions around the manor before strutting through the gates.
As soon as he entered the restrictions around the manor, they regained their shine.
Huang Xiaolong found himself standing in a wide hall, devoid of anything other than a giant statue of the Four Seas Holy Emperor standing tall in the middle of it.
The statue was several thousand feet tall, and it was like a massive mountain standing in the middle of the main hall. Moreover, the statue was carved out from a piece of rarely seen holy spiritual transparent stone.
Ordinarily, True Saint Realm experts would leave their inheritance in a statue made from holy spiritual transparent stone as it was extremely effective in storing their holy essence energy. Even after a long time had passed, the holy essence energy stored in it wouldn’t degrade or disappear.
Moreover, their successor would be able to easily absorb the holy essence energy contained in the stone due to its unique properties.
After sensing the True Saint’s might coming from the statue, Huang Xiaolong no longer hesitated as he approached the statue. Stopping to stare at it for a moment, he eventually sat down with his legs crossed.
Upon retrieving the Four Seas Holy Symbol once again, Huang Xiaolong activated the secret technique as brilliant rays of light emerged from the plaque. The glow around it landed on the statue, and it seemed to cause a shocking reaction. As if it had come back to life, energy channels appeared along the surface of the statue.
If one looked closely, the energy channels were formed from mysterious holy runes. A massive holy formation was formed from the head of the statue to the toe.
Upon tracing the formation, the eye of the formation could be seen in the space between the statue’s eyes.
As bursts of light emerged from the statue, the holy formation grew stronger and stronger. Blinding light shrouded the entire hall.
When the two True Saints outside noticed the change in the manor, they couldn’t help but feel a little shocked.
“Is young master going to accept the inheritance now?” The Departing Sword Sage asked.
“There shouldn’t be any problems, right?” Chen Zhi felt a trace of worry in his heart, and he stared at the Departing Sword Sage worriedly.
It wasn’t easy to completely accept the inheritance of a True Saint. After all, one’s talent and cultivation realm was a very important factor.
Moreover, the Four Seas Holy Emperor was a mid-level True Saint. His inheritance was hundreds of times stronger than regular True Saints!
“Relax. With Young Master’s talent, he will definitely be able to accept the inheritance.” The Departing Sword Sage reassured. “It won’t be a problem even if he tried to accept the inheritance of a high-level True Saint Realm expert!”
Even though he didn’t know the extent of Huang Xiaolong’s talent, he knew that anyone with two holy souls would be more than capable of accepting an inheritance of that level.
If Huang Xiaolong failed to accept the inheritance of the Four Seas Holy Emperor, there was probably no one in the Holy World who could succeed!
When the two of them were speculating about the situation, the situation in the hall changed. The formation finally reached its limit, and a trace of golden mist poured out from the statue.
The golden mist seeped into the formation and eventually returned to the space between the statue’s eyebrows. Without a doubt, the golden mist was made up of the Four Seas Holy Emperor’s holy essence energy!
A pillar of golden light emerged when the concentration of the golden mist reached an extreme, and it pierced into the space between Huang Xiaolong’s eyebrows!
As soon as it entered, the golden mist turned into a sea of golden holy essence. It tore through Huang Xiaolong’s body, and he felt his body bloating up in an instant.
