173: test
"Young man, do not refuse. This old man has no ill intent; I am merely filled with immense regret before my passing.
Furthermore, I have already intercepted a strand of your aura and cast it out of Jian Sheng Valley.
Should you refuse my Legacy, this aura will explode. When that time comes, what awaits you is that person's remote execution!"
The Primordial Giant threatened both overtly and covertly.
He was clearly about to pass away, hence his urgency.
After all, with his great vengeance unfulfilled, he did not want to see that person comfortably reigning as a patriarch in the Nine Spirits Realm.
Causing him some minor trouble would be good enough.
"Old geezer, you're quite shameless!"
Su Yu gritted his teeth, his face filled with resentment.
Since his Ascension, he had only felt this aggrieved three times. The first was being hunted remotely by the Peach Blossom Saint Ancestor during his Ascension.
The second time was when True Monarch Longhai pursued him.
This third time was the scheme of this old monster, who had seen through him completely.
"There is no need for such a resentful look. A Mahayana Legacy is something countless Integration Stage Cultivators dream of but never attain.
As long as you inherit my Legacy, it will be enough to ensure you step into the Mahayana Stage within at least a thousand years!
Most importantly, I can gift you a xuantian spiritual treasure that is about to be born!"
The Primordial Giant continued to entice him.
The Legacy he left behind was enough to allow an Integration Stage Cultivator to enter the Mahayana Stage, and that soon-to-be-born xuantian spiritual treasure was even more crucial.
That was a Xuantian object that could only be born by gathering the spiritual essence of an entire Realm!
In the entire Nine Spirits Realm, there have not been many xuantian spiritual treasures since ancient times.
Aside from some xuantian spiritual treasures sacrificed to True Spirits by powerful clans to obtain their protection, there are probably fewer than ten remaining in the hands of Mahayana experts.
Every xuantian spiritual treasure is immensely powerful. If an ordinary Mahayana possessed one, they would instantly become an Upper-grade Mahayana Stage Expert.
As for a Peak Mahayana Stage Cultivator possessing such an item, they would likely be capable of challenging a True Spirit.
"Compromise is indeed a skill, but what if I am unwilling to compromise?"
Although a xuantian spiritual treasure is extremely precious—a Xuantian object condensed from a Realm's spiritual essence and containing the power of Laws—
such a naturally nurtured treasure cannot be purchased from the System.
This only served to prove how precious a xuantian spiritual treasure was.
However, Su Yu did not want to compromise for the sake of a mere xuantian spiritual treasure.
While the System could not directly purchase a xuantian spiritual treasure, it didn't mean one couldn't be nurtured.
Furthermore, no matter how precious a xuantian spiritual treasure was, could it be more valuable than his own life?
He was indeed the number one person below the Mahayana Stage, but that didn't mean he was invincible against those below Mahayana, let alone capable of a one-for-one trade with those above it.
Cultivation Realms were not vague; the gap between each Realm was boundless.
To put it simply, with Su Yu's current strength, if he truly faced a Mahayana Cultivator and fought with all his might without retreating, he could die three times within ten quarters of an hour.
Even if he had the ability to wound the opposing Mahayana, so what? Once dead, everything is over.
"Young man, is there really no room for negotiation?"
The Primordial Giant's eyes narrowed, revealing a dangerous glint.
His vast aura swept toward Su Yu, causing the very sky to change color.
Su Yu stood firm, his pale purple protective Spiritual Light isolating him from the Primordial Giant's pressure.
Not only that, Su Yu also fully circulated the Profound Thunder Slaying Firmament Sword Art, and a terrifying Sword Intent soared into the clouds.
The Void Realm seemed unable to withstand this Sword Intent and cracked open.
A large amount of astral wind poured in.
A pressure very close to the Mahayana Stage was also released by Su Yu, clashing with the Primordial Giant's pressure.
The collision of the two terrifying fluctuations actually produced heavenly thunder and earthly fire. For a moment, the Void Realm was like a piece of dyed cloth blown by the wind, wrinkling layer upon layer.
This violent fluctuation spread out of Jian Sheng Valley, instantly causing all living beings in the entire valley to tremble with fear.
Even creatures without intelligence, who only knew instinctive slaughter, hid in terror, shivering.
However, before this fluctuation could leave Jian Sheng Valley, it was dissipated by a mysterious power.
After the two confronted each other for a while, the Primordial Giant suddenly withdrew his aura, a smile appearing at the corners of his mouth.
"Young man, you have passed the test.
If you had dared to take on this great Karma from me just for a Mahayana Opportunity and a xuantian spiritual treasure,
I'm afraid I would have had to kill you and continue waiting for the next successor.
An Integration Stage Cultivator facing a Mahayana head-on is not courage, but recklessness and stupidity.
Not to mention that person is a terrifying existence who ranks in the top ten among the nearly one thousand Mahayana Cultivators in the entire Nine Spirits Realm!
Even if you advance to the Mahayana Stage, or even if your magic power converts to immortal essence and you enter the state of the Tribulation Transcendence Stage, you would still be no match for this person without a xuantian spiritual treasure of your own!
The Taihao Yutian Mirror!
The power of such a xuantian spiritual treasure is truly terrifying. Even if an Integration Stage Cultivator uses it, they can only exert a fraction of its power, yet a single strike could wound a Mahayana.
When used by a Peak Mahayana Stage Cultivator, it can exert its full power, making them capable of fighting even a True Spirit!
I am glad you are not a reckless person; otherwise, I would have worried that after receiving my Legacy, you would just go and deliver resources to the enemy for nothing.
Take this jade tablet. It contains my entire Legacy and the details of that enemy. How much of the Legacy you can comprehend depends entirely on your own ability.
The location of the soon-to-be-born xuantian spiritual treasure is also within this jade tablet's Legacy.
Young man, my time is running out. To one day witness the death of my enemy with my own eyes,
I will seal my Primordial Spirit until the day you kill that person and use their head as a sacrifice to me.
If you cannot kill that person, my Primordial Spirit can only last for a few tens of thousands of years, after which I will have no choice but to undergo Reincarnation."
The Primordial Giant changed his tone and spoke calmly to Su Yu.
It turned out that everything he had done was actually a test for Su Yu.
For a moment, Su Yu didn't know which of his words were true and which were false.
He maintained twelve-fold vigilance toward such an old monster, fearing he might accidentally fall into a trap.
Facing the jade tablet thrown by the Primordial Giant, Su Yu did not catch it immediately.
Instead, he surrounded it with Evil Warding Divine Thunder before taking it into his hand.
With the profound power of the Evil Warding Divine Thunder, even a Mahayana could not silently bypass the divine thunder to launch a sneak attack on him.
Not to mention, any insidious methods would be seeking death when facing the Evil Warding Divine Thunder.
"Senior, if your Legacy only contains Cultivation Techniques or insights, then forget it.
I can, however, accept the xuantian spiritual treasure.
Once I have the ability one day, I will naturally avenge you."
Su Yu was somewhat dismissive of Cultivation Techniques or insights.
The techniques he practiced were among the best in the Nine Spirits Realm, and the subsequent techniques led directly to the Dao Ancestor!
As for cultivating to Perfection, it was merely a matter of spending more Spirit Stones.
Additionally, he was very wary of this person, fearing some conspiracy within the jade tablet; if he dared to inject his Divine Thought into it, there might be a possibility of being possessed!
