Chapter 4024: Star Steps
Xiu, right at this moment, a figure appeared out of thin air.
Ling Han’s first reaction was that the people from the Battle God Palace had charged over. He was already prepared to use the ley lines to escape, but at the same time, he was also surprised. He had only mastered this kind of technique for half a day, so how did the people from the Battle God Palace know?
But in the next instant, Ling Han was relieved, because the person who had come was not an assassin from the Battle God Palace, but rather the Nine Mountains Venerate.
“Brat, you’ve already died once,” the Nine Mountains Venerate said solemnly.
Ling Han was astonished. ‘Didn’t I see through you?’
“Wrong. The reason why the assassins of the Battle God Palace are so hard to guard against is because they are not only good at launching sneak attacks from the shadows, but would also disguise themselves as someone familiar to you, causing you to be unguarded, and then succeed with a single strike,” the Nine Mountains Venerate said solemnly.
Ling Han nodded, then put on a defensive stance, “Then are you in disguise now?”
The Nine Mountains Venerate instantly laughed. This junior was truly worrisome. He had actually angered the Battle God Palace with a single trip.
“I really didn’t expect that you have actually mastered the Star Steps.” He sighed, “In that case, I will be at ease. Even if you are outmatched, you would still have a chance to escape.” “Star Steps?”
“Don’t you know that this is called the Star Steps?”
Only now did Ling Han know that this kind of technique that borrowed the power of Earth Qi to move was called the Star Steps.
True, he was walking within the planet, so wasn’t it Star Steps then?
“Such a young Formations Grandmaster!” The Nine Mountains Venerate was filled with emotion. “Martial arts, alchemy, formations, you’re proficient in all of them. You’re a prodigy in all of them, so how can there be a freak like you? You’re practically a little maniac.” Was this a compliment? Er, it could be considered a compliment.
Ling Han was extremely shameless, so he nodded and gladly accepted the Nine Mountains Venerate’s praise.
“At first, I had planned to be your Dao Protector for a while, but I never thought that a brat like you would actually cultivate the Star Steps. Now, I can rest assured,” the Nine Mountains Venerate continued.
Ling Han couldn’t help but feel warmth in his heart. Hurriedly, he said, “Thank you for your concern, Senior.”
“However, even if you’ve mastered the Star Steps, you still can’t be careless,” the Nine Mountains Venerate said solemnly. “The Battle God Palace has been able to move unhindered for so many years, and it’s said that there is no one that they dare not or can’t kill. This definitely isn’t an empty boast.”
“Yes.” Ling Han nodded. He naturally could distinguish his good intentions.
“All right, let’s go back.” The Nine Mountains Venerate waved his hand, appearing very satisfied.
The Battle God Palace was indeed terrifying, but in history, there was no shortage of people who had been ordered to kill by the Battle God Palace. However, in the end, they were still alive and well, and this kind of person had all become a Saint in the end.
This kind of tribulation and pressure could stimulate a person’s potential a hundredfold.
Thus, as long as Ling Han didn’t die, he would definitely be able to become a Saint.
Ling Han returned to the Nine Suns Holy Land. At this time, the empress and the others also discovered that he had come out of seclusion, and all came to see him.
“I’ve now cultivated the Star Steps, and even Venerate Tier elites would find it difficult to wound me,” Ling Han said. They were all family here, so there was no need for him to deceive them.
The empress, the large black dog and the others all nodded. Though the Battle God Palace had a Killing Saint, if they still sent out a Saint to kill a Core Formation Tier cultivator, then wouldn’t the Battle God Palace be too demeaning?
Furthermore, the last time the Battle God Palace had failed was only the Core Formation Tier. Who knows, they might even send out the Gold-medal assassins, ultimate elite assassins, and so on from the Core Formation Tier. When they failed, only then would they send out True Self Tier elites. What kind of Saint would make a move right away?
Everyone relaxed.
After a few days, Lin Luo, Zhou Heng and the others came to bid farewell to Ling Han. They planned to venture into the galaxy.
In the Holy Land, though they did not have to worry about the problem of cultivation resources, it could only be considered standard. If they really wanted to obtain such good things like the Ghost Spirit Crystal, the Spiritual Dao Fruit, and so on, they would definitely have to fight for it themselves, and it not be bestowed upon them by anyone.
They were all ultimate elites in the Genesis World, so how could they accept being ordinary? Thus, they wanted to go and take a look.
Ling Han naturally wouldn’t object. He taught them all of the cultivation techniques of the Ancient Sun Divine Scroll. Unfortunately, if he could advance to the next level, he would be able to obtain the complete Ancient Sun Divine Scroll and teach it in one go.
There was no hurry. It wasn’t like Lin Luo and the others would never return.
After sending Lin Luo and the others off, Ling Han also felt like exercising.
Staying in the Holy Land, there was indeed no shortage of resources, but it was also impossible to obtain top-grade treasures.
He searched for the location of any martial arts tournament on the Galaxy Network. There was news of ancient ruins opening, but they were all too far away. By the time he arrived, the tournament would have long since ended, and the ancient site would have long since been
exploited.
He sighed, so bored that his bones were aching.
Since that was the case, he would get along well with his beautiful wife, and cherish this kind of peaceful, beautiful time.
However, this was destined to be an extravagant hope. After Prosperous Heaven found out that he had come out of seclusion, she immediately ran over, planning to expiate him and bring him into the Buddhist Race.
This annoyed Ling Han so much that he felt an urge to pummel this Holy Daughter of the
Buddhist Race.
Two days later, the large black dog ran over.
“Little Han, a big, big event!” This despicable dog was very excited.
“What is it? Have you discovered a female dog that has the same traits as you?” Ling Han’s mouth was also unforgiving.
“Shoo, shoo, shoo, don’t play this kind of dirty joke with Grandpa Dog!” The large black dog waved its paw, “The resting place of Divine Rain Venerate has appeared!”
Divine Rain Venerate?” A thought flashed in Ling Han’s mind, but he wasn’t too excited. After all, he had cultivated more than one Imperial Technique, and grasped quite a few Saint Techniques, so he naturally couldn’t take a Venerate Tier-level inheritance too seriously.
Of course, if he had the chance, he would definitely take it gladly.
“Little Han, now you’re a frog at the bottom of a well.” The large black dog chuckled, and said, “Do you know who Divine Rain Venerate’s ancestor is?”
“Who?”
“Ancestral King Lingtian!” the large black dog said in an exaggerated tone.
Only now did Ling Han feel shocked.
Ancestral King!
Which also meant-
“That’s right. This Divine Rain Venerate is in possession of the Ancestral King Lingtian’s inheritance.” The large black dog’s eyes almost popped out of his head. “Little Han, just think, the Ancestral King Lingtian’s inheritance… How many treasures are there?” “He’s Ancestral King Lingtian’s only descendant?” Ling Han found this strange. “That’s true,” the large black dog said. “The Ancestral King Lingtian’s branch has always had few people. Thus, with Divine Rain Venerate’s death, the Ancestral King Lingtian’s inheritance was completely severed.”
Ling Han couldn’t help but sigh in pity. Although the Nine Suns Saint had lost to Ancestral King Lingtian and failed to become an Emperor, at least there was still the inheritance of the
Nine Suns Holy Land. It was indestructible for all eternity.
But what about Ancestral King Lingtian?
Only a legend was left behind.
Thinking about it, it was the same for Brother Monkey. Wasn’t the Battle Saint Emperor also
an overlord of his own generation? But in the end, his descendant was suppressed at the foot of the mountain. If it was not for the fact that they were afraid that he was not completely
dead, Brother Monkey would have been done for eight hundred years ago.
“Little Han, are you going or not?”
“Of course I’m going.”
Ling Han snickered. He was currently so bored that his bones were aching.
