2095 Senior, please let me live
He spoke without thinking too much and accidentally used his usual line, “little cultivator who has just stepped into the world of cultivation.”
He had been using this line a lot and stopped only in the past two or three months.
After all, ever since he condensed his golden core and became a Fifth Stage Spirit Emperor, it no longer made sense for him to say this line.
The two fairies, the virtuous lamia and Fairy Creation, loved to use the updated version of this line to troll him every now and then.
The owner of the crystal room stared at Song Shuhang.
Song Shuhang was on guard. He stared back at the other party, fearing that they would attack him violently.
Finally, the owner of the crystal room spoke. “Fellow Daoist, have we… met before?”
Song Shuhang was taken aback.
This line was so unexpected that he could not react for some time.
“If I remember correctly, Fellow Daoist… Isn’t this the first time we’ve met? Have you been here before?” The owner of the crystal room stood up. He was very tall, and when he stood up, the top of his head nearly touched the ceiling of the crystal room.
If he were to go play basketball, he would not even have to jump to dunk the ball into the hoop. He was so tall that he would simply need to raise his arm. His opponents would have no chance of winning against him!
“Ah? Hahaha!” Song Shuhang laughed awkwardly and then nodded vigorously. “Right, right, right. Of course, this is our first time meeting. I’ll be in your care then!”
It turned out to be a misunderstanding.
Still, since this is our first meeting, please don’t greet me in such a familiar tone! I got so scared that my heart skipped a beat. I thought I met another creditor of Slow-Witted Song!
Song Shuhang scratched his head and said, “Sorry, Senior. I’ve been rather antsy recently.”
“Mm-hm, I can see that your foundation is rather unstable. It should be because of a recent encounter. Your blood must have rushed to your head, causing you to be muddle-headed.” The owner of the crystal room smiled slightly. Then, using that slightly hoarse but very magnetic voice, he said, “However, it doesn’t matter as the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ is very effective in this regard. As long as you practice it diligently, it will only take one year for this level of cultivation deviation to be cured and eliminated completely.”
“One year?” Song Shuhang pinched his chin. He then gave the owner of the crystal room a thumbs up and said, “Senior has a keen eye. It is indeed because of a little encounter that my realm is unstable.”
The owner of the crystal room nodded slightly, seeming to enjoy Song Shuhang’s flattery. “Anyway, you’re quite lucky. Your current state made it easier for you to communicate with the crystal runes and enter this place.”
Generally speaking, the more simple-minded a creature was, the easier it was for them to be influenced by the crystal runes and get to the inheritance room.
“It seems that my luck isn’t that bad, huh?” Song Shuhang murmured.
He did not know how to describe his luck today.
Although he successfully entered the Inheritance Land, he now owed a huge debt.
Fortune and misfortune were intertwined in his case; they were inseparable from each other.
Right, it must be because I got separated from my human-shaped amulet! Song Shuhang guessed the reason behind what happened.
When misfortune befell him, it was because he was separated from his amulet.
If his “amulet” was still there, it would definitely not have been so complicated to open the eyelids of the dragon eye. His amulet would simply need to go forward, and the eyelid door would definitely open on its own.
This huge loss could have been avoided!
“Anyhow, I don’t have much time. Little Fellow Daoist, let’s get to business,” said the owner of the crystal room. He then sat back on his seat and motioned for Song Shuhang to sit on the seat opposite him.
Song Shuhang sat down solemnly. He knew that he would obtain the General Principles Chapter next.
He was very curious as to how the owner of the crystal room was going to teach him this chapter of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯.
“Since you’ve come here, then you should know that the General Principles Inheritance Chapter of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ is a technique that touches upon the power of laws. It’s too much for the main world, and it cannot be recorded with mere letters. Even if you use special characters of the language of the ancient era or of the dragons, you would still not be able to write it down. Even if you do forcefully record it down, the written characters would be erased by the power of heaven and earth. Even Technique Transmitting Jade Slips cannot record this content,” the owner of the crystal room said slowly.
Song Shuhang nodded. “Yes, I know.”
It was precisely because the General Principles Inheritance Chapter was so special that Garre Holy Mountain’s trial was created.
The owner of the crystal room smiled slightly and continued, “Even when compared with other techniques that touch upon the power of laws, the General Principles Inheritance Chapter of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ is very special, and even a treasure like the ‘Flower of the Great Way’ is unable to accommodate its content. Therefore, the method by which it is inherited is very special. You have to be mentally prepared.”
“What is the Flower of the Great Way?” Song Shuhang asked in puzzlement.
“It’s a special divine item used to record cultivation techniques that touch upon the power of laws. The flower blooms for a thousand years and withers for a thousand years. Then, after withering, it blooms for another thousand years. Every Flower of the Great Way can be used to record a law-level cultivation technique. However, it can only be used once, so it is extremely precious,” the owner of the crystal room explained.
“I’ve learned a lot today.” Song Shuhang nodded.
“The General Principles Inheritance Chapter of the ❮Holy Ape Dragon Power Technique❯ cannot be recorded even with such an item, so we used a very special method to make it accessible to the inheritors.” The owner of the crystal room raised both of his hands, and a blue ball of energy the size of a basketball appeared in his palms.
This senior really does play basketball!
Senior, please give your opponents a chance, Song Shuhang thought to himself.
“What?” The owner of the crystal room looked at Song Shuhang in puzzlement.
Song Shuhang asked back, “What?”
“What did you mean by ‘give your opponents a chance’ just now?” The owner of the crystal room looked puzzled.
F*ck… It’s the long-lost mind reading technique.
“It’s not mind reading. It’s more like telepathy. I can sense when you talk to me in your mind. Mind reading is too intrusive to one’s privacy. We generally do not use it,” the owner of the crystal room explained.
Song Shuhang: “…”
“Actually, when facing you, Fellow Daoist, I don’t need to use any mind reading techniques,” the owner of the crystal room added. “Your facial expressions are too easy to read, and I can guess what you are thinking at a glance.”
Song Shuhang: “…”
Senior, please let me live!
“Hehe.” The owner of the crystal room smiled cheerfully. He then raised the blue basketball in his hand. “This is the last step. Don’t resist. Accept its power.”
He pushed the basketball toward Song Shuhang and said, “Little Fellow Daoist, rejoice, you’re about to come in contact with the power of time!”
