Chapter 46: The Fate-Changing Son-in-Law (Part 8)

The Trial of a Hundred Kingdoms
This wasn't Su Chen's first time participating.
In his previous life,
he participated in the Trial of a Hundred Kingdoms and found some immature treasures in the secret realm.
He hid these treasures well,
waiting for the opportunity to find them again in his next life.
More than five hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Su Chen didn't know how many treasures were still there.
"Five hundred years of frost and snow have erased even the marks I left behind, they no longer exist."
Following his memories, Su Chen discovered that the secret realm was not as he remembered it.
The marks he had made were useless and could no longer be found.
This disappointed him somewhat.
He had no choice but to seek another opportunity.
Fortunately, his luck was good.
He quickly found a powerful demonic beast, easily killed it, and obtained a thousand-year-old Earth Yellow Essence.
He wandered far and wide, seizing several opportunities.
A thunderous roar echoed through the heavens and earth.
An ancient stele appeared.
Su Chen raised his head.
He was filled with curiosity about how many inherited runes he could comprehend in this life, and how powerful a legacy he could obtain.
Many prodigies within the secret realm flocked to the Xuan Yuan Ancient Stele, vying for Dao Platforms.
When everyone saw Su Chen, they recognized him as a prodigy favored by the elders of the Xuan Yuan Holy Land, and no one dared to offend him.
Su Chen easily secured a Dao Platform without any dispute.
The young prodigy, seeing Su Chen, remained silent, turned around, and tactfully left to compete for other Dao Platforms.
As the Dao Platforms shone brightly, Su Chen's consciousness quickly merged into them.
Golden, dazzling runes fell like raindrops in the air.
Those mysterious and obscure runes were as clear as lines on a palm to Su Chen, completely transparent.
One day... two days... three days...
More and more prodigies awakened.
The light emanating from Su Chen grew ever brighter.
Everyone gasped in amazement: "No wonder he's a genius valued by the elders of the Holy Land!"
They were very curious.
How many runes would Su Chen ultimately comprehend?
Slowly, only Su Chen remained.
A month later.
A pillar of light rose.
"Five hundred and thirty-one runes... Is this my limit?"
Su Chen sensed the inheritance he had obtained in his mind.
It was the inheritance of a Void Realm expert.
The Void Realm was a realm above the Profound Realm.
They were revered as Emperors.
Within the Xuan Yuan Holy Land, even a Void Realm expert was considered an absolute powerhouse.
The inheritance Su Chen obtained was only a low-grade Emperor-level martial skill.
Even the worst Emperor-level martial skill was still Emperor-level.
Outside the secret realm.
It also caused a sensation.
Lin Wu remembered that from hundreds of years ago.
The most talented genius, with the potential to become an emperor, Langchao Tian, ​​had only comprehended 480 runes. After entering the Xuan Yuan Holy Land, he had already reached the peak of the Tongxuan realm, only one step away from breaking through to the Dongxu realm.
Now.
Su Chen has comprehended over 530 runes.
His comprehension is absolutely impeccable.
The final result was as Lin Wu had predicted.
Su Chen entered the Xuan Yuan Holy Land with the first-place ranking.
The Eastern Wilderness has a total of twelve holy land-level lineages.
The Xuan Yuan Holy Land ranks ninth.
Ninth
Standing proudly among all living beings.
The Holy Land's vastness is merely the tip of the iceberg, even more expansive than the territory of the Tianyuan Dynasty.
Rare and exotic beasts are everywhere.
Mountain ranges undulate, bathed in the glow of dawn.
Under Lin Wu's introduction, Su Chen became a disciple of a powerful figure known as the Prison Suppressor Emperor.
The Prison Suppressor Emperor was an elderly man with a goatee who appeared listless.
However, Su Chen could sense that he was very strong... very strong...
"Disciple Mu Chen greets Master,"
Su Chen respectfully greeted the goatee-bearded elder.
The elder's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he looked at Su Chen and said, "I originally didn't want to take on a disciple, but this lad Lin Wu said you're quite extraordinary and might bring me a pleasant surprise."
"Therefore, I've accepted you as my disciple and will impart all my knowledge and skills to you. Don't disappoint me."
"Disciple will do my utmost and live up to Master's expectations," Su Chen nodded.
The two, master and disciple, resided on Prison Suppressor Peak.
Prison Suppressor Peak was vast,
and had numerous servants.
Besides Su Chen,
there were no other disciples on Prison Suppressor Peak.
Su Chen was the only disciple.
This greatly surprised Su Chen.
Good brother, truly reliable.
Being the only heir meant Su Chen could enjoy all the resources of the lineage.
No competition.
It was an incredible opportunity.
The next day
Su Chen began cultivating under the guidance of the Prison Suppressor Emperor.
The Prison Suppressor Emperor imparted all his knowledge to Su Chen.
The cultivation technique he practiced was called the Prison Suppressor Scripture, a high-grade royal-level technique.
Su Chen also learned that
the Prison Suppressor Emperor was actually a peak ninth-level Void Realm expert.
This excited Su Chen even more.
With such a powerful figure as his backer, his cultivation path was boundless and smooth.
Three years passed in the blink of an eye.
During these three years,
Su Chen cultivated on Prison Suppressor Peak.
With the guidance of such a powerful figure as the Prison Suppressor Emperor, Su Chen gained a deeper understanding of cultivation realms.
His cultivation soared, breaking through to the third level of the Spirit Soul Realm in three years.
The spiritual soul he cultivated was of superior quality.
He could easily defeat three of his past selves.
Over the past three years, Su Chen learned about the past of this old man with the goatee.
He knew that the Prison Emperor had a sworn enemy.
The reason this old man hadn't taken on any disciples for so many years was...
It was all because of this enemy.
The Prison Emperor was constantly thinking about revenge.
Therefore, he had no interest in taking on disciples.
Now, the Prison Emperor's lifespan was nearing its end.
He still hadn't broken through to the Nirvana Realm.
With his revenge hopeless, he conceived the idea of ​​taking on disciples, and coincidentally, the Prison Emperor was a close friend of Master Lin Wu.
In this life, Su Chen was also regarded by Lin Wu as the successor of his old friend.
This is why Su Chen was allowed to become a disciple of a peak Void Realm expert.
And his only disciple at that.
Over the past three years, the Prison Emperor was very satisfied with Su Chen's comprehension.
Perhaps, in the future, he will break through to the Void Realm and inherit his legacy.
Suppressing Prison Peak will not disappear into the history of the Profound Origin Holy Land with the passage of time.
“Master, this disciple comes from the Great Yan Dynasty and has been away from my homeland for four years. This disciple wishes to return home to visit. I humbly request Master's permission.”
Having achieved fame and success, it is natural to return home in glory.
Su Chen has already established himself in the Profound Origin Holy Land, and he can't help but think of Uncle Xia and the Xia siblings.
He wonders how they are doing now.
And also
his sworn brother, Fang Bubai, who seems to be a person of great fortune.
The Suppressing Prison Emperor nodded: “Since it is a return home, it is only right.”
“Let Prisoner and Trapped accompany you back to the Great Yan Dynasty.”
Both Qiu and Kun were followers of the Prison Suppressor Emperor and servants of Prison Suppressor Peak.
They were also two powerful experts at the Profound Realm!
In the outside world, they would be considered kings!
And so,
Su Chen embarked on his journey back to the Great Yan Dynasty.
