A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 237

Chapter 237: Receiving the Inheritance

“So, are you willing to accept my inheritance?”

The Celestial Immortal Emperor and the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor looked steadily at Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu before them, their expressions grave as they asked.

Upon hearing this, Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu fell silent for a moment. After a long pause, they finally looked up and replied,

“Senior, may I ask if accepting your inheritance requires us to promise something to you?”

“That is naturally the case. I only ask that you promise me one thing: When you grow strong, avenge us against the Blood Soul Sect!”

Both the Celestial Immortal Emperor and the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor asked without hesitation.

Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu were momentarily stunned, their expressions strange. This was because, back at the Wu Family, they already knew that their cousin Wu Yifan was at odds with the Blood Soul Sect.

They were also aware of Wu Yifan’s talent, which was far beyond their own. They had no idea what realm he had currently reached, but it was probably at least Great Luo Golden Immortal.

With this in mind, Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu nodded without hesitation,

“Senior, we agree.”

“Good. If that’s the case, then take this inheritance from me and move forward!”

The Celestial Immortal Emperor and the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor smiled and extended a finger. The next moment, a white orb and a black orb of light each flew out from their hands, gently entering Wu Xianni’s and Wu Mowu’s minds.

Their inheritances differed from that of the Chaos Great Emperor. They contained a trace of the Celestial Immortal Emperor’s and Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor’s Origin Power, enough to help Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu break through several realms.

As the inheritances entered their bodies, Wu Xianni and Wu Mowu both closed their eyes simultaneously and sat down cross-legged to begin refining the power.

After learning that Immortal Emperor Chuyang and the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor were also inside this Secret Realm, their determination to grow stronger grew even more urgent.

Watching the two of them absorb the inheritance, Wu Hao nodded with satisfaction.

[Alert: Congratulations! The host has invested in the late-stage Immortal Emperor inheritance of the Child of Destiny’s junior Immortal Emperors. One million late-stage Immortal Emperor inheritances have been returned. Do you wish to merge them?]

“Merge them all for me!”

Without hesitation, Wu Hao said this and instantly gained 200,000 inheritances at the Immortal Emperor Pinnacle level. Unlike the Chaos Great Emperor’s inheritance, this inheritance also contained a trace of Origin Power from an Immortal Emperor Pinnacle-level cultivator. If given as a gift, it would be enough to help an ordinary person break through directly to the Great Luo Golden Immortal level. After all, this was the Origin Power of an Immortal Emperor Pinnacle— even a trace of it could not be underestimated.

In addition, Wu Zhen’e had also obtained an inheritance from an intermediate-stage Immortal Emperor inside the secret realm. So now, in Wu Hao’s hands were 200,000 inheritances from Immortal Emperor Pinnacle-level cultivators, 200,000 inheritances from late-stage Immortal Emperors, and tens of thousands from initial-stage Immortal Emperors.

“As soon as we get out, let every Wu Family member have one inheritance from an Immortal Emperor Pinnacle-level cultivator,” Wu Hao thought to himself. The main reason was that one couldn’t absorb too much Origin Power at once—overindulging in someone else’s Origin Power would hinder further cultivation. Otherwise, given Wu Hao’s nature, he would likely have handed all 200,000 Pinnacle-level inheritances to one of the Children of Destiny right away to help them break through to that level.

“They’ll need some time to absorb the inheritances. While the Celestial Immortal Emperor and Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor’s remnant souls haven’t faded yet, I should go ask them a few questions.”

With this in mind, Wu Hao took a step forward and appeared before the remnant soul of the Celestial Immortal Emperor. Before the Celestial Immortal Emperor could react, Wu Hao took him along and left immediately.

When they reappeared, they had arrived in front of the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor’s remnant soul. As for Wu Mowu, Wu Hao had blocked her senses, and since she was secluded, refining a trace of Origin Power from the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor, she was naturally unaware of the situation outside.

At this moment, the Celestial Immortal Emperor and the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor exchanged a glance before turning to face Wu Hao, their expressions extremely solemn.

“Senior, may I ask who you are?” the Celestial Immortal Emperor asked slowly. From Wu Hao’s presence, he sensed a terrifying aura even stronger than when he had confronted the Blood Emperor back then.

The Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor looked at Wu Hao as well. If Wu Hao was preparing to strike, then even if he fought with all his strength, he would do everything to protect his inheritor. Even though he was only a trace of a remnant soul, that didn’t mean he lacked the power to fight. If it came to combat, even an initial-stage Immortal Emperor could be held off for some time.

Sensing the unease from both emperors, Wu Hao smiled and waved his hand, saying, “No need to be so tense. If my true self wanted to attack, you wouldn’t even have time to react. To be honest, I am the Ancestor of your two inheritors. I only came to ask you a few questions.”

Upon hearing this, the Celestial Immortal Emperor and the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor were momentarily stunned, then their vigilance eased slightly, though not entirely.

“We wonder what you wish to ask us, Senior?” the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor asked curiously.

Hearing that, Wu Hao’s expression grew serious as well.

“I want to know exactly what happened during the Ancient Times.”

After hearing Wu Hao’s words, both the Celestial Immortal Emperor and the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor were momentarily stunned. After a long pause, they sighed deeply.

“Senior, you probably don’t actually know, right?” the Celestial Immortal Emperor asked.

“I generally do know,” Wu Hao replied, “but I’m really curious—what exactly is this Blood Demon Seed?”

Wu Hao’s expression showed a hint of curiosity. To be able to cause even Late Stage Immortal Emperors to lose control, if possible, he would actually like to obtain some himself.

Upon hearing this, the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor fell silent. After a long while, he sighed and said, “Senior, I’m afraid I’m powerless in this matter. After my downfall, the Blood Demon Seed inside my body vanished along with me. But all I can say is that the Blood Demon Seed is somewhat like a parasitic insect, except that it doesn’t just root itself inside the body—it attaches itself to the Divine Soul. It overwhelms both mind and body, driving you into absolute madness.”

By the end of his explanation, the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor involuntarily shivered, recalling the time he was controlled by the Blood Demon Seed.

Wu Hao’s expression grew somewhat sour. He had originally hoped to obtain one of those Blood Demon Seeds from the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor, but he hadn’t expected them to be single-use only.

“However, Senior, if you want to get a Blood Demon Seed, perhaps you should try to get it from the Blood Emperor. Being a member of the Blood Soul Sect, he should still have some in his possession,” the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor suggested.

Hearing this, Wu Hao looked at the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor and asked again, “Do you know the origins of the Blood Soul Sect?”

“I know a little. When the Blood Emperor came to find me, he let slip some information: the Blood Soul Sect is a force from the Divine Realm. If they wanted to, they could destroy the entire Upper Realm in an instant,” the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor explained.

“At that time, the Blood Emperor was only at the Late Stage Immortal Emperor level, not as strong as he is now. But I didn’t have the confidence to fight back, so I just let him leave. I never imagined that back then he had already planted the Blood Demon Seed inside me.”

At this point, the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor’s expression darkened with anger. “Is that so? Understood. You all can now go in peace. I will handle this matter myself.”

Wu Hao waved his hand and immediately helped send off the Celestial Immortal Emperor and the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor. Since their remnant souls couldn’t last much longer anyway, it was time for them to move on after passing on their inheritances.

The Celestial Immortal Emperor and the Fallen Demon Immortal Emperor said together, “Thank you, Senior.”
