Simultaneous Transmigration: Inheriting the Legacy of Myriad Worlds

Chapter 252 We're all from the Ruthless Kind Lineage

Qinling.

This is a very special place in Zhongzhou, which is exactly the opposite of Yuyuan.

Yu Yuan has no dragon veins, but the Qinling Mountains are the ancestral land of gods, with boundless dragon energy. One of the ancestral veins of the Central Plains is located here.

In search of the "Secret of the Soldier" character, Qin Sheng brought Ye Fan to this place, where they encountered Hua Yunfei.

Then another woman appeared in the distance, looking in this direction.

Oh, and there's also Ye Fan's ex-girlfriend, Li Xiaoman.

"Greetings, Brother Qin and Brother Ye." Hua Yunfei smiled slightly.

This time, due to Qin Sheng's interference, Hua Yunfei's identity as the inheritor of the ruthless man was not exposed by Ye Fan.

He is still the young master of Xingfeng, the future successor of Taixuan Sect, and is currently a student of Qishi Mansion.

"After parting ways at the Tai Xuan Sect back then, I never had the chance to see Fellow Daoist Hua again. I never expected to meet him in a foreign land today." Qin Sheng nodded to Hua Yunfei.

"Yes, as long as we are destined to meet, we will meet again anywhere in life."

Hua Yunfei sighed with emotion, "When Brother Qin visited Tai Xuan Sect before, he was still a hidden dragon in the abyss. Now that we meet again, he has already soared to the heavens and become famous throughout the five regions of the Big Dipper. I admire him."

Qin Sheng went to the Tai Xuan Sect to obtain the secret of the character "皆". At that time, he had just beaten up the Great Moon and was famous, but he was not yet the Holy Son of Yao Guang, let alone being revered as the Eastern Immortal.

Now, several years have passed, the world has changed, and things are no longer the same, which is truly poignant.

Time is truly the cruelest, but also the greatest force.

It can corrupt even a king with a heart for the universe, and it can also turn a dog into a quasi-immortal emperor.

"Immortal Qin, Ye Fan." Li Xiaoman walked over. They were both from Earth, so this way of addressing each other was normal.

During their university years, Ye Fan and Li Xiaoman were boyfriend and girlfriend, and Qin Sheng and Ye Fan had always had a good relationship, so he was also quite familiar with this girl.

At that time, Qin Sheng did not treat Li Xiaoman differently because in the original story, the future Li Xiaoman would become like that.

The future is the future, and the present is the present.

At the time, she and Ye Fan were truly in love. It would have been very strange if Qin Sheng had treated her coldly. People who didn't know the situation might have thought that something had happened between him and Li Xiaoman.

Qin Sheng looked at Li Xiaoman and said, "It's been a few years. It seems you're doing quite well. You're almost at the Four Extremes Secret Realm."

Li Xiaoman shook her head, "In front of you, my cultivation is only insignificant."

"Ha, compared to Brother Qin, Beidou has no geniuses." Hua Yunfei shook his head with a smile.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Ye Fan and Pang Bo's cultivation levels have risen rapidly and they are now both at the Dragon Transformation Realm. Just because they are now at the Dragon Transformation Realm doesn't mean that others who came to Beidou riding on the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin can do the same.

Ye Fan needs no further explanation; he is an exceptional case among exceptional cases, a rare case among rare cases.

Pang Bo was previously possessed by a descendant of the Azure Emperor. His body was controlled and cultivated by that old demon, and he broke through to the next level while lying down. It was a case of Didi's proxy cultivation.

Other Earthlings are naturally not like these two.

Li Xiaoman is already a genius for cultivating to the point of nearing the fourth level in the past few years. She is not an ancient holy body, and there are no bottlenecks before the fourth level.

In the original timeline, she was able to fight Ye Fan because she borrowed the power of the Crocodile Ancestor.

Another little-known fact is that Da Yue Liang was at the fourth level of cultivation when he debuted, but he was already twenty years old at that time.

Li Xiaoman looked at Ye Fan with a calm expression, "We meet again. Congratulations on breaking the curse of the Holy Body."

Ye Fan responded calmly, "Thank you."

Former lovers meet again on the other side of the starry sky, and everything seems calm and serene.

Master Ye did not hate Li Xiaoman. This time, she was not possessed by the Crocodile Ancestor, and there was no conflict between the two.

They parted ways peacefully on Earth; nothing dramatic happened. It was just a breakup after dating, nothing serious, not like they were each other's father's killers.

Years have passed, and everything has settled into a quiet routine, leaving no trace in my heart.

This is how things should normally unfold.

"You came to the Qinling Mountains to search for a great tomb, to excavate the corpses of the ancients to cultivate the Devouring Heaven... Immortal Technique?" Qin Sheng asked.

There is no doubt that Li Xiaoman also obtained the Devouring Heaven Demon Art from Hua Yunfei, and it was not difficult for Hua Yunfei to find out Qin Sheng's identity.

Upon hearing Qin Sheng's words, the two men glanced at Ye Fan with some surprise.

The Eucharist is still here, is this something we can talk about? Shouldn't we discuss it privately, away from the Eucharist?

“I know you are all inheritors of the ruthless man’s legacy.”

When Ye Fan said this, he felt a strange sensation in his heart. Of the four people here, three were from the Ruthless lineage.

Why am I the one being isolated?
Alas, looking across the Big Dipper, only I, Ye Fan, have maintained my innocence and have no connection with the Ruthless Great Emperor.

Li Xiaoman couldn't help but ask, "You are a Holy Body, aren't you afraid to be with people who cultivate the Devouring Heaven Demon Art?"

The Sacred Body Origin is absolutely the best tonic. Once the Chaotic Body and the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo are produced, no other physique can offer the Devouring Heaven Demon Art a greater temptation.

"Why be afraid?" Ye Fan countered.

"Humans cultivate ancient scriptures, but the ancient scriptures control people. Immortal Qin is different."

“If he wanted to attack me, he would have had countless opportunities, and I wouldn’t be alive today.”

The depth of our friendship is something you can never understand!
Hua Yunfei and Li Xiaoman exchanged a glance, and the same thought came to mind.

Has Ye Fan been brainwashed?
The same Devouring Heaven Demon Art, could it be that the one practiced by Dong Xian is more noble?
"I've forged my own path," Qin Sheng stated simply.

The part about practicing demonic arts in reverse.

“One’s own path…” Hua Yunfei was taken aback.

"Do people like us really still have the opportunity to walk our own path and choose our own lives...?"

He seemed somewhat melancholy for a moment.

Hua Yunfei is the most typical and representative patient of depression in the world of "Covering the Sky".

"When I entered the Four Extremes Secret Realm, the reason I challenged you to a battle when I passed by the Tai Xuan Sect was to see what level other practitioners of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art were at," Ye Fan added.

At the same time, he didn't expose Hua Yunfei because he was afraid that the young master of Xingfeng would risk everything and expose Qin Sheng as well.

Ye Fan was overthinking it; Hua Yunfei would never do such a thing.

You can escape Hua, but you can't escape Tai Xuan.

He dared not self-destruct along with the ruthless man's lineage, for that would mean the Tai Xuan Sect would also face annihilation.

Hua Yunfei smiled helplessly, forgetting all his melancholy, "We are just ordinary mortals, naturally no match for Brother Qin, the Eastern Immortal."

These two people, who had also practiced demonic arts, looked at Qin Sheng with surprise and incomprehension.

Outsiders may marvel at Qin Sheng's achievements by attributing them to his exceptional talent, comprehension, and fortuitous opportunities, but the Ruthless Clan finds their Holy Son utterly baffling.

Everyone is devouring the source, so why are you able to break through so quickly and have such strong combat power? That doesn't make sense, does it?
Don't you experience any bottlenecks? When practicing demonic arts, aren't you troubled by demonic tendencies? Don't you need to digest your food?

The more I learn about Tosen, the more I find him to be an outrageous person.

Even the reincarnation of the Ruthless Great Emperor couldn't be more extreme than this. No, this behavior is even more outrageous than the original Ruthless Great Emperor.

Among the Ruthless lineage, not a single person would believe that the Holy Son's success today is solely due to the Devouring Heaven Demon Art.

If anyone says that, the Ruthless Clan will be the first to disagree; it's utter nonsense.

I warn you not to slander the Holy Son. We have practiced the Devouring Heaven Demon Art before, and it has no such effect whatsoever.

The Holy Son has come this far entirely through his own efforts; the Devouring Heaven Demon Art has only contributed a negligible amount to his success.

The Holy Son is the most knowledgeable and skilled eater among our Ruthless lineage since ancient times.

"Brother Qin, did you also come to the Qinling Mountains to search for the ancient corpse?" Hua Yunfei asked.

"My junior sister and I can leave; we won't compete with you."

At this point, he gave a self-deprecating laugh, "We have no right to compete with you for anything." Qin Sheng shook his head, "I don't need these origins."

What level are you? You're not worthy of entering my body, Dongxian. I only consume pure, natural essence.

"Now that Brother Qin is the leader of the Ruthless Clan, am I also just food prepared for Brother Qin?"

Hua Yunfei stared at Qin Sheng, "I wonder how many more years I have left to live?"

This young master of Xingfeng was chosen by the Ruthless Clan when he was five years old. He was taught the Devouring Heaven Demon Art and carefully nurtured, but he was just a discarded pawn, a leek to be harvested.

The demonic body must be shed in order to achieve the divine embryo. Hua Yunfei's existence is for the purpose of fulfilling Yao Guang's immortal heavenly skill someday in the future.

He was naturally unwilling and wanted to fight back and break free from his fate. He tried to break free of his shackles time and time again, but he failed each time and later died at the hands of Ye Fan.

In the end, when Ye Fan returned to the Tai Xuan Sect, he also missed this immortal-like person.

This is a very tragic person who was forced onto this path.

"I have not cultivated immortality, but only the Devouring Heaven technique. You don't need to worry about becoming my nourishment."

Hua Yunfei was truly astonished. "The Devouring Heaven Demon Art is a dead end. Brother Qin has not cultivated the Undying Heaven Art, so how can he transform into a divine embryo?"

How can one become an emperor without forming a divine embryo?

Qin Sheng gazed at Hua Yunfei, his eyes filled with calm, confidence, and all-knowing wisdom.

"Do you think Devouring the Heavens is a dead end? You're wrong. This is the real way out, giving people a glimmer of hope."

Qin Sheng's voice was as loud as a bell, leaving Hua Yunfei frozen in place, lost in thought.

"On the path of the Undying Heavenly Art, the Ruthless Great Emperor is ahead of us, an immortal monument, an insurmountable peak. Who can cross it?"

"For us, imperfection is hope, while perfection brings despair."

Hua Yunfei murmured, "I understand, Brother Qin, you're right, but..."

But even if he understood, it seemed meaningless.

The hope of attaining enlightenment through cultivating the Devouring Heaven Demon Art is, in fact, a vague and unattainable prospect for other inheritors of ruthless individuals, serving only as a form of psychological comfort.

Because they are unlikely to reach or take that step.

This glimmer of hope is nothing but a mirage, impossible to grasp.

"I wish Brother Qin success."

But if it's the person in front of me, maybe I really have a chance.

"If you could turn back time, and no one was forcing you, what would you choose?" Qin Sheng asked a question.

Hua Yunfei smiled, a smile that was both melancholic and wistful.

"What a wonderful idea! If that day ever comes, I want to be a happy young musician on the peak of the star, and never embark on the path of cultivation again."

Hua Yunfei's happiest days were when he was a child, learning the piano with his mother every day, a carefree time.

No pressure, no constraints.

Qin Sheng nodded, "Alright, I'll give you this opportunity. I've already taken control of the Ruthless Clan."

"You are no longer a pawn, and no one will force you to sacrifice yourself for anyone. You can return to the Tai Xuan Sect now. Of course, if you want to compete for the throne of the Great Emperor, that's up to you."

“You are the same.” This was said to Li Xiaoman.

Hua Yunfei mostly devours the essence of corpses. When hunting living people, he only chooses those who are guilty and does not indiscriminately kill innocent people, at least not at the current point in time.

Given his situation, Qin Sheng was willing to give him a chance, including Yao Guang, which he didn't care about.

I will rebuild my sister's glory!
No one else should drag us down; anyone who does will be punished.

"Would they agree?" Hua Yunfei asked incredulously.

"In the Holy Land of Yao Guang, whether it's the Holy Land lineage or the Ruthless lineage, no one dares to oppose me," Qin Sheng said with such naturalness and composure.

"Unless he wants to go to Jinzhou in the Northern Region to mine Originium."

Hua Yunfei remained silent, and finally bowed deeply to Qin Sheng.

"I will never forget Brother Qin's kindness."

When he looked up again, there were tears in his eyes.

“Brother Qin, when we parted last time, we made a promise to play a piece of music. I have nothing to repay you with but this melody on the zither.”

Hua Yunfei took out the guqin, a gift from his mother when he was a child. It was not a precious artifact, but it was his most cherished possession, representing the pure land in his heart.

The melodious music emanating from the fingertips of this ethereal man was light, easy, and exuding a sense of relief.

Through the music, one can see the free world in Hua Yunfei's heart, so clear and lofty.

When the song ended, Qin Sheng nodded and handed Hua Yunfei a token, saying that seeing this was like seeing him in person, and the Ruthless Clan would understand.

"Is there anything else you want to say?" Qin Sheng asked Ye Fan.

"Brother Hua, I hope to have the opportunity to share a drink with you on Xingfeng Peak in the future."

Hua Yunfei smiled brightly, "I will definitely welcome you with open arms at that time."

Ye Fan shifted his gaze to Li Xiaoman and said:
“Live a good life.”

Li Xiaoman remained silent for a moment, then suddenly said:

"If you can go home in the future, please take a few more glances at our hometown for me."

"Okay," Ye Fan agreed.

"I wish Brother Qin an unparalleled path to the throne, and I also wish Brother Ye great success soon."

Qin Sheng and Ye Fan left. This was just a chance encounter; they came together by fate and they left by fate.

"I am a pitiful fish, released into a river that does not belong to me. Over the years, I have leaped up again and again, just to be free and return to the river of my life, but I have failed time and time again."

Hua Yunfei finally shed tears, "I thought I would never be able to go back in this life, and could only go to that predetermined end..."

"Brother Qin, thank you. If I am ever needed in the future, I will repay you with my life."

Hua Yunfei turned around and looked in the direction of the Eastern Wilderness.

"I have succeeded at Tai Xuan Star Peak, the place that gave me birth and nurtured me. I have broken free from the shackles of fate. Father, Mother, fellow disciples, I have returned."

……

Ye Fan was somewhat surprised after hearing Qin Sheng recount Hua Yunfei's deeds.

"Hua Yunfei became the inheritor of the Ruthless Man at the age of five? So young?"

"Yes, back then, a master from the Ruthless lineage descended upon the Tai Xuan Sect and, in the name of the Yao Guang Holy Land, chose Hua Yunfei."

The Tai Xuan Sect was unaware that their young master, Xingfeng, was the inheritor of the Ruthless Man's legacy; otherwise, with so many people gossiping, this secret would have been exposed long ago.

The ruthless family threatened Hua Yunfei with his family members, so Hua Yunfei dared not reveal the matter and kept it to himself.

"They actually intimidated, threatened, and coerced a five-year-old child," Ye Fan condemned.

"How can you ruthless people be so evil?"

"And then there's the Ruthless Great Emperor, who created this ancient scripture; he's practically the root of all evil."

Qin Sheng: "..."

You're finished, you're really finished, I'm going to punish you properly.

Even if you dare say that, I wouldn't dare listen to it.

The Holy Body has gone mad; he says he wants to create a new Forbidden Wasteland.
