231: Chapter 231 Unusual Favorability

Ji Taichang and Lan Huaying felt a blur before their eyes, and they appeared in a mountain forest where the blue sky and white clouds above looked peaceful.

However, Lan Huaying's gaze sharpened as she keenly realized that both her cultivation and Primordial Spirit power were suppressed, unable to be used in the slightest, leaving only her Physical Body strength available.

"Roar!!"

The earth shook and mountains swayed as ferocious and terrifying beast roars erupted. A swarm of Yao Beasts charged from all directions—ten-zhang long spotted tigers, black apes, Golden-Winged Great Pengs...

All of them were Great Yao known for their formidable Physical Body strength!

These Yao Beasts were all at the Soul Transformation Stage and Void Refinement Stage, with Physical Bodies exceeding the vast majority of human Cultivators of the same Realm!

Lan Huaying's expression tightened as she immediately said, "Fellow Daoist Ji, be careful. This trial tests the strength of our Physical Body..."

Boom!!

Before she could even finish her sentence, Ji Taichang suddenly took a step forward. A terrifying, massive force erupted from his foot as the center, shattering the solid rocky ground and creating a shocking airwave that swept across in all directions!

The group of Yao Beasts hadn't even gotten close when they were hit by the airwave, their bodies instantly exploding into mists of blood.

Instant kill!

"What were you saying just now?"

Ji Taichang turned to look at Lan Huaying and blinked at her.

"Gulp!"

Lan Huaying swallowed hard, feeling her little head buzzing.

With such terrifying Physical Body Divine Power, she was completely certain that not even the current Saint or Saintess of the Shuiyue Holy Land could achieve this step; he was too much of a Prodigy!

"I said... Fellow Daoist Ji is amazing!"

Lan Huaying felt her heartbeat quicken and gave Ji Taichang a thumbs up.

[Ding! Lan Huaying's favorability increased by 10 points. You can obtain 10% of Emperor Tianle's cultivation/ability. Please choose.]

[Lan Huaying's favorability: 70 (A surprise will happen when favorability reaches 100!)]

Hearing the System prompt, Ji Taichang's eyes brightened slightly: "This little girl's favorability actually increased so quickly?"

After favorability reaches 60, it is often very difficult to increase further.

Moreover, Lan Huaying had long known that Ji Taichang's Aptitude and combat power were extraordinary.

Yet, she increased his favorability by 10 points all at once, which left Ji Taichang pleasantly surprised while also somewhat puzzled.

"Whatever, an increase in favorability is a good thing!"

"System, claim Emperor Tianle's ability!"

Ji Taichang didn't overthink it and happily muttered to himself.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 10% of Emperor Tianle's ability.]

A surge of insights regarding a Cultivation Technique flooded his mind—it was the Yin and Yang Union Technique.

However, since Ji Taichang often Cultivated with Lin Xueyue and the other three women, this ability could also come in handy.

Hum—

As the surrounding Yao Beasts were killed in one move by Ji Taichang, Ji Taichang and Lan Huaying felt the surrounding scene twist and change, and the two appeared on a grand arena.

Cultivators with various auras appeared all around, filled with Killing Intent.

Ji Taichang and Lan Huaying's Physical Body and Primordial Spirit power were completely sealed, leaving only their cultivation spiritual power usable, making them "glass cannons."

This stage was clearly testing their spiritual power Foundation!

Of course.

With Ji Taichang's terrifying Aptitude, possessing five Supreme-grade talents, this trial stage of the ancient tower had absolutely no difficulty for him and could be cleared with an instant kill!

With a shocking "bang."

Ji Taichang merely pinched a hand Seal, used his spiritual power to construct a giant Sword Qi, and swept it across in all directions, instantly killing all the other Cultivators and clearing the stage directly.

Immediately following were the third stage, fourth stage, fifth stage...

In the face of Ji Taichang's terrifying strength, the two of them were like a hot knife through butter, killing their way straight through ninety-nine stages—a speedrun!

Lan Huaying's eyes widened, her rounded mouth agape as if it could fit a chicken egg.

[Ding! Lan Huaying's favorability increased by 10 points. You can obtain 10% of Emperor Tianle's cultivation/ability. Please choose.]

[Lan Huaying's favorability: 80 (A surprise will happen when favorability reaches 100!)]

"Hahaha... Hahaha!"

"I never expected it, never expected that in the Falling Phoenix Ridge, this Forbidden Zone of Life, this old man would actually wait for such a terrifying Prodigy! Truly, the heavens have mercy!"

On the one hundredth floor of the ancient tower, there was no trial stage; instead, a hoarse and joyous laughter rang out.

Ancient and mysterious symbols lit up in the Void Realm, condensing into a phantom of a black-haired old man wearing yellow Daoist robes. His eyes were filled with ecstasy and excitement as he stared fixedly at Ji Taichang.

"This attire and appearance... Could you be... the Carefree Loose Cultivator who traversed the Eastern Desolate Region a million years ago!?"

Lan Huaying's pupils suddenly contracted, and she couldn't help but exclaim!

"Oh? Has a million years already passed?"

The old man was slightly stunned, his face filled with emotion and sighs.

"This old man started as a Loose Cultivator. Although I stepped into the Mahayana Stage, I was unable to peek into the Immortal Dao. When my Lifespan was exhausted, I ventured into the Falling Phoenix Ridge, attempting to find the legendary immortal medicine to extend my life, but I never expected to encounter a terrifying crisis."

"I was defeated and dying, so I could only leave my Lifebound Treasure and Legacy on the outskirts of the Falling Phoenix Ridge, hoping someone could carry on my mantle."

"The me you see is just a trace of power I left behind back then. Over a million years, it has faded significantly and cannot be maintained for much longer."

The old man stared burning at Ji Taichang: "Young man, next, I will entrust my life's Legacy and heart's blood to you..."

"Not needed."

The old man's words were interrupted by Ji Taichang before he could finish.

"?"

"Kid, do you know what you are refusing?"

The old man's eyes widened, filled with disbelief.

"Fellow Daoist Ji, don't be impulsive!"

Lan Huaying's heart also jumped wildly, and she hurriedly persuaded him: "The Carefree Loose Cultivator is a powerful Senior of the Mahayana Stage. The Legacy he left behind is such a precious Opportunity..."

Ji Taichang waved his hand, looking at the old man with a calm and composed expression: "Since Senior knows of my world-shaking talent and combat power, you should know that I also have Mahayana Stage powerhouses guiding me behind me. I do not lack Legacy or resources; giving them to me would be a waste."

"So... I ask Senior to bestow the Legacy and resources upon Miss Lan!"

Ji Taichang pointed at Lan Huaying.

"Ah? Me?"

Lan Huaying was stunned for a moment, doubting if she had misheard.

That was the Legacy and resources left by a Mahayana Stage powerhouse!!

What kind of world-shaking Opportunity was this? Ji Taichang was actually willing to yield it to her??

"Fellow Daoist Ji, this... this cannot be!"

"What right do I have to accept such a shocking Opportunity..."

Lan Huaying hurriedly refused, feeling that this "gift" was too precious!

Ji Taichang grabbed her small hand and looked at her affectionately: "Miss Lan, do you still not understand my intentions? I like you! I am willing to give everything for you..."

[Ding! Lan Huaying's favorability increased by 20 points. You can obtain 20% of Emperor Tianle's cultivation/ability. Please choose.]

[Lan Huaying's favorability: 100 (A surprise will happen when favorability reaches 100!)]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Surprise Gift Pack!]
