Chapter 468: 465: Stirring Waves Again_1
What Tiandu Emperor had said was too simple. Yang Chen still didn’t know exactly how much was hidden within Tiandu Divine Country, and it seemed he would have plenty of opportunities to explore it in the future. The things left behind by Tiandu Emperor were undoubtedly a treasure worth exploring.
It could be seen that the Tiandu Emperor had put a lot of effort into selecting this inheritor.
He was fortunate enough to have been chosen as Tiandu Emperor’s inheritor and thus obtained the Tiandu Divine Country.
“Alright, I’ve said everything I needed to. My soul has already persisted for quite some time. When I was severely injured back then, the soul that was left was not as strong as Yu Ban’s, and it could not hold on for very long. Now that I’ve explained everything, my soul can disperse.” Tiandu Emperor sighed.
This surprised Yang Chen greatly, “Tiandu Senior, you want to disperse your soul? How can this be possible?”
Dispersing the soul meant allowing the soul to scatter.
Today, Tiandu Emperor’s physical body had already been dead for countless years, and now that his remaining soul was about to disperse, there would be nothing left of him in this world.
Tiandu Emperor stroked his chin, “Don’t be surprised. My spiritual soul body has been here for long enough. Now that I’ve found a suitable inheritor, what use does my soul have for this place? Haha, my body is already dead, so there’s even less meaning in my attachment.”
“Of course, before dispersing my soul, I will arrange everything properly.”
“Senior…” Yang Chen hesitated to speak.
Tiandu Emperor blinked, “What do you want to say?”
“Tiandu Senior, I won’t mention the other things, but the levels you have set up for your descendants show your deep foresight. The strength you had back then was unimaginable, but I have a feeling that your death was not so simple. Today, I have received such a great kindness from you, so back then…”
Tiandu Emperor laughed loudly, “Little guy, it’s not in vain that I nurtured you like this. You can even think of my affairs. If you don’t ask, you’ll find out in the future, and not only will you know, but you’ll also have to help me finish this matter. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be a great loss for me to have nurtured you so much?”
Yang Chen had a wry smile on his face.
It seemed that Tiandu Emperor had thought everything through.
He did not have any other thoughts. When you take something from someone, you have to help them in return. Especially since Tiandu Emperor had left such a huge treasure, there was no reason for him not to help Tiandu Emperor.
“Alright, since you have this intention, I can rest assured when my soul disperses. However, when my soul disperses, I won’t completely disperse it. I will leave a part of my unconscious soul in this Soul-Collecting Pearl.” Tiandu Emperor took out a pearl emitting a faint green light.
He could hold this pearl in one hand, which made Yang Chen puzzled, “Tiandu Senior, what is this Soul-Collecting Pearl for?”
“It’s simple. I will put a part of my unconscious soul into this Soul-Collecting Pearl. In time, when you want to activate the teleportation artifact or unlock the prohibitions in Tiandu Divine Country, you will need the soul I give you.” Tiandu Emperor explained, “That’s the purpose of the Soul-Collecting Pearl.”
After saying this, Tiandu Emperor waved his sleeves, “Alright, everything has been said. Here is the Soul-Collecting Pearl, as well as the teleportation artifact, your top-grade spirit stones, and other items stored here. I will disperse my soul now, and in the future, the one who helps you lift the restrictions and guide your path will be Yu Ban. By the way, you can also consult Yu Ban about the prohibition matters, hahaha!”
As this voice echoed and faded, Tiandu Emperor’s soul became increasingly blurred.
Yang Chen knew that Tiandu Emperor’s soul had dispersed.
It made sense; with the body dead and only a trace of the soul remaining in the world, what use was there?
Now that his task was complete, Tiandu Emperor departed peacefully.
“Farewell, Tiandu Senior.” Yang Chen took a deep breath, filled with mixed emotions, not knowing whether to feel happy or worried.
No matter what, being able to control Tiandu Divine Country was a good thing for him.
Just as he was lost in his thoughts, suddenly, another spiritual soul body appeared.
Wasn’t that the spitting image of Yu Ban?
Seeing Yu Ban, Yang Chen hurriedly paid his respects, “Yang Chen greets Elder Yu Ban.”
Yu Ban was shocked and hastily retreated, saying, “Young Master, this is improper.”
When he said this, he was also extremely surprised. He had never thought that the little guy he had seen not long ago would, in the blink of an eye, get through the assessment that Tiandu Emperor himself had deemed nearly impossible to pass.
Yang Chen was stunned, not understanding Yu Ban’s words.
Knowing Yang Chen’s confusion, Yu Ban kindly said, “Young Master, since you have passed the Emperor’s assessment and received the Soul-Collecting Pearl, you are now the master of Tiandu Divine Country. Yu Ban followed the Emperor back then, and now that you are the Emperor’s inheritor, Yu Ban naturally regards you as his young master.”
Upon hearing this, Yang Chen understood, “Elder Yu, you are too polite. As an elder, you should not be so courteous to your junior.”
“Young Master, your kind thought is enough for Yu Ban. However, the rules are there. I will not break the rules set by the Emperor.” Yu Ban said solemnly and earnestly.
Yang Chen couldn’t help but smile bitterly. It seemed that Tiandu Emperor’s charm and charisma back then was indeed amazing. Even Yu Ban, who was already dead with only a soul remaining, was still so loyal to Tiandu Emperor, so much so that his loyalty extended to him.
It seemed that the older generations all had something for the younger generations to admire.
Just as he was thinking of asking Yu Ban about the prohibition matter, he suddenly remembered something and quickly said, “Elder Yu, please send me back to the second floor immediately!”
“Huh… Young Master, you can control the Soul-Collecting Pearl to activate it. The Soul-Collecting Pearl is connected to various prohibitions. As long as your True Qi goes in, you can sense the key to the prohibition. Along with the Emperor’s soul, and in combination with all these prohibitions, everything in Tiandu Divine Country is yours. As for me, Yu Ban, I am only here to help you watch over some things by the Emperor’s command and prevent you from touching them too soon.” Yu Ban politely explained.
Yang Chen listened and nodded thoughtfully. He then urged the Soul-Collecting Pearl, and soon he was able to use it.
In the blink of an eye, he returned to the second floor of the Sky Capital Palace.
On his return, Yang Chen shook his head and sighed. As he expected, Yu Feilong’s greed was not erased, and he inevitably attacked Jiang Caiying once more.
Moreover, this time, in addition to Zhang Xing, he had another helper!
