Chapter 1153: Chapter 640: You Call This the Urban Cultivation Leisure World?_2 Chapter 1153: Chapter 640: You Call This the Urban Cultivation Leisure World?_2 Behind this sea of flowers, there indeed was a hidden Heavenly Cave. What they saw before them was a grand gate, constructed at an unknown time, and concealed within the floral expanse.
“Elder, you might as well tell me now,” Logan said with great tact, “otherwise, a sense of unease persists in my heart. Besides, I only wish to receive the Inheritance; I have no intention of truly perishing.” Logan knew that, no matter how formidable his own abilities, they surely wouldn’t surpass those of the elder. With hands clasped behind his back, the elder interrupted Logan, already understanding what he was about to say.
He proceeded to recount the entire saga from the beginning. A long time ago, in the age of Ancient Times, countless beings aspired to ascend to Spirit. At that time, even the strength of someone like Logan was but slightly superior. In actuality, it didn’t amount to much. However, a cataclysmic event occurred, putting an end to all of that.
The elder too was suppressed here, with his physical remains no longer existing. Had Logan and his companions not stumbled upon this place, it was doubtful anyone would have discovered it.
Logan was puzzled. It seemed the Ancient Times did indeed exist, but whom had the elder offended to meet such a fate?
“Elder, please continue. I’m rather eager to know more,” Logan implored, as the elder sighed.
“Young man, I see you are still young, with some matters I must share with you. Your Talent is exceptional, and it won’t be long before you can attempt to reach the Spirit realm. But know that learning too much can be detrimental, potentially drawing the ire of the Heavenly Dao.”
Hearing this, Logan felt it wasn’t much cause for concern. He had just survived the Heavenly Punishment. He understood the elder was cautioning him, but having come through it once, he knew his path was not one the average person could tread.
Seeing Logan’s resolve, joy surged in the elder’s heart, convinced he had chosen correctly. He began to reveal more.
“In the Ancient Times, a group arrived. They defeated many Big Shots and sealed away plenty, causing significant turmoil for our cohort. The issue runs far deeper than it appears.”
At the elder’s words, Logan suddenly understood. Could it be that this place concealed the elder’s corpse, or even the entire Fallen’s corpses? A chill went through Logan as the elder nodded in affirmation; Logan’s guess was correct.
“Inside lie not only our corpses but also the mysterious person we fought valiantly to kill. We only managed to slay one, yet a Remnant Soul lingered. I battled him countless times, relying on the Spiritual Energy of Spirit Mountain to finally suppress him!”
Logan’s eyes widened in astonishment. He had previously encountered a nearly Divine Level corpse in the Mountain Range, initially believing it to be a falsehood. Yet it turned out to be real. Their true strength wasn’t fearsome, but they were undying and indestructible, with their Remnant Souls of no consequence.
“I need an heir, someone to take my Position, someone with formidable strength and extraordinary Talent. It’s indeed remarkable how you possess such power now, considering the much-changed times since the Ancient Times!”
Logan touched his nose, realizing the elder had handpicked him, unable to find a better candidate. He felt the elder had handed him a mess, so with a helpless look, he asked, “Elder, you don’t expect me to go in there and deal with those fellows, do you? Those are entities that not even the people of Ancient Times could vanquish. How could I possibly do so?”
He was shocked; the elder had too high an opinion of him. They had fought desperately without achieving victory. Logan was confident in himself–if he couldn’t win, he’d flee. Currently, he could overpower those beings, but that didn’t mean he was extraordinarily powerful.
Realizing this, Logan also understood why the previous visitors had all fled, with one even escaping from the elder’s grasp, never to be recaptured. Was it still possible for him to flee? This wasn’t a matter of failing to complete a task but rather an impossible dream.
“Elder, I think it’s still not too late for me to back out. However, I possess methods to strengthen the soul. I can offer you an Elixir, enabling you to hold on for a while longer. You can stay here during that time!” After saying this, Logan tried to leave, but the elder seemed to have anticipated his escape, promptly grabbing Logan’s arm.
“Don’t worry, they’re not as formidable as you think. Their strength has diminished greatly. At my most powerful, I even managed to slay seven or eight!” Logan chuckled wryly; in the end, the elder had nonetheless met his current fate. He was still very much alive and didn’t wish to end up a mere phantom like the elder, unable to improve his strength further.
“No, Senior, I just came here to acquire an inheritance, not to throw my life away,” Logan said earnestly, convincing. The elder rubbed his palms and seemed unconcerned.
“Actually, it’s not impossible, but even if you taught me the method, I could only last for a few hundred years. After that, they might break out, and by then, only you could save everyone, ascend to Divine Level and thoroughly suppress this place!”
Logan burst into hearty laughter; the elder thought too highly of him. He felt that coming here was like walking into a lion’s den, and his timing was incredibly unlucky, overlapping with the elder’s imminent extinction.
Ordinary cultivators, even without the aid of elixirs, could live for a long time without advancement, and their lifespan would continue to increase along with their strength.
The man Logan had defeated before had lived for over a thousand years and his strength was decent. Logan’s eyes rolled, and he said to the elder, “Old man, what if I bring you someone from ancient times? He’s escaped from the barrier, what do you think?”
The elder’s eyes suddenly lit up; having someone ready at hand would indeed be good.
“Where is this person? Tell me where he is, and whether he came with you,” the elder queried. Logan gestured and conjured the Water Mirror, revealing the man’s reflection within. He pointed at the man and explained.
“That’s right, it’s him. He’s from Ancient Times. His current strength is a bit weak, but that’s because he’s been sealed, so he can’t fully display his power!” The elder followed Logan’s gaze and thought Logan was joking with him; the man’s talent was too poor from head to toe.
Even in Ancient Times, he was someone no one would look up to, so the elder shook his head.
“No, I think it’s better if you do it. Your talent is good in every aspect, and your strength is strong. I have to say, I think it’s not bad,” he said to Logan, forced to admit after hearing Logan’s words.
“What’s your plan going forward?” Logan was at a loss for words, looking at the person in front of him. In theory, this shouldn’t be so complicated.
“If you’re going to do this, better cool down first,” he thought. He needed to think this over; it might be a life-or-death matter, and Logan wasn’t that foolish.
“Senior, can’t we discuss this further? If it’s really impossible, how about dragging her in and then throwing her out? Wouldn’t that solve things a bit better?” The elder didn’t expect Logan to be so aggressive, but Logan’s words gave him a wake-up call; he did have a way.
“I can tell you really don’t want to do this. You now only have five hundred years to reach Divine Level, or you could open the Ancient Barrier and release my old friends. They would definitely help you,” Logan scoffed. Either way, it seemed like certain death.
Did he look that foolish?
“No, no. Absolutely not, I can’t,” Logan said as he sighed, and then he spoke out.
“Actually, I could give you half of the inheritance and the treasures. How about that?” The elder’s offer immediately sparked interest in Logan; he should have mentioned it sooner, and Logan would not have been so resistant.
“No problem, Senior. What’s five hundred years? I’m sure I can do it,” Logan’s words made the elder feel ashamed.
