On the 60th birthday of the system, my son’s engagement was annulled!

"A sword cultivator, a space cultivator, an immortal emperor, and an immortal king—interesting."

A sudden remark sent chills down the spines of both Lin Xiao and Jian Shiyi.

The tone was soft, but it carried an extremely terrifying impact.

Even Jian Shiyi, the Immortal Emperor, felt an extreme sense of oppression.

The two looked toward the Martial God Armor and saw a figure slowly float out.

"Martial Celestial Venerable!"

The two never expected that Wu Tianzun, who should have perished a million years ago, was still alive!

"Hehe, my two young friends, there's no need to be nervous. I have already perished. Now, I am nothing more than a remnant soul."

Wu Tianzun stroked his beard, a smile appearing on his not-so-old face.

"If a remnant soul can be so oppressive, how powerful must Wu Tianzun have been when he was alive?"

Lin Xiao couldn't help but take a deep breath. Even a wisp of remnant soul was making it hard for him to breathe. If his original body were still alive, he would probably be gone with just a glare.

Jian Shiyi took a step forward.

"Junior Jian Shiyi greets Wu Tianzun."

"Junior Lin Xiao greets Wu Tianzun."

Upon seeing Jian Shiyi's actions, Lin Xiao immediately stepped forward and bowed.

Jian Shiyi was slightly taken aback when he heard Lin Xiao's name. This kid actually also had the surname Lin?
"Both of you are exceptionally talented individuals. Hehe, looking at the two of you, this old man feels gratified, and I am no longer afraid of dissipating."

"What do you mean by this, senior?"

Lin Xiao pressed for an answer, puzzled.

"Perhaps you all know why I perished. Back then, the extraterrestrial evil race launched a massive invasion of our Immortal Realm. The evil race was very strong; at the same level, the immortals of our Immortal Realm were no match for them."

"Furthermore, the evil race is very large, and they cultivate one powerful force after another. I have a feeling that it may not be long before the evil race invades our immortal realm again. Seeing you talented young people, I can breathe a sigh of relief."

Wu Tianzun smiled at the two of them, his originally serious expression suddenly becoming kind.

"Do you wish to inherit my legacy?"

Wu Tianzun suddenly spoke again.

Both of them were taken aback, and Lin Xiao spoke first:
“Senior, the Sword Emperor’s talent is known throughout the Immortal Realm. So let the Sword Emperor accept your inheritance.”

Lin Xiao cupped his hands in greeting to Wu Tianzun, actually giving up the inheritance of a Tianzun.

Wu Tianzun looked at Lin Xiao with some disbelief. It was unbelievable that someone was actually pushing away his inheritance. However, looking at Lin Xiao's eyes, it didn't seem like he was retreating to advance. So he looked at Jian Shiyi.

"The moment you entered my tomb, I sensed your talent. In truth, your talent is only mediocre, not top-tier. However, the fact that you have cultivated to this level at such a young age is enough to demonstrate your character, which is what I value most. Young friend, will you accept my inheritance?"

Wu Tianzun looked at Jian Shiyi with a big smile.

Wu Tianzun was fairly satisfied with Jian Shiyi.

In Wu Tianzun's eyes, a lack of talent was a minor issue; what he valued most was an incomparably strong will and an unwavering, invincible spirit.

"Thank you for your kindness, senior, but your inheritance is not suitable for me." Jian Shiyi shook his head slightly at the inheritance of Wu Tianzun.

Lin Xiao was stunned, and so was Wu Tianzun.

He was rejected twice today!
He is the Martial Celestial Venerable, a renowned figure in the entire Immortal Realm millions of years ago, whom even the Immortal Emperor would respect.

But today, his inheritance has been rejected time and again; it's simply outrageous. "Senior, I specialize in the sword path. I know that throughout many eras in this Immortal Realm, the strongest has been the Sword Sovereign. I don't believe it! I don't believe that a sword cannot become an Emperor!"

Jian Shiyi gripped his sword, his tone calm yet conveying a powerful emotional impact.

"Hahaha……"

Wu Zun laughed heartily several times, his eyes filled with satisfaction and admiration as he looked at Jian Shiyi.

"The sword is the ultimate form of attack. There was once a Sword Celestial Venerable who swept across the battlefield with a single sword. That celestial venerable was called the Celestial Slayer Venerable, and the sword in his hand was the Chaos Treasure Celestial Slayer Divine Sword. How strong was he? He could rival an Immortal Emperor, so people called him a Half-Emperor!"

Wu Tianzun also admired Jian Tianzun from the bottom of his heart, because even someone as powerful as Wu Tianzun, who revered martial arts, could not possibly defeat a Celestial Emperor.

Having spent hundreds of years in the Immortal Realm, Jian Shiyi had naturally heard of the renowned name of this Sword Celestial Venerable.

Furthermore, Jian Shiyi also knew that the broken sword his master had used was the Zhutian Divine Sword.

The destruction of the Chaos Treasure, the Heaven-Slaying Divine Sword, is enough to show how devastating the invasion by the evil race was back then.

However, the Chaos Treasure possesses divinity; although its body is destroyed, it can still be reassembled and restored to its peak state.

"Since neither of you needs my inheritance, I will not force you. However, I can give each of you a gift."

Wu Tianzun died fighting for the Immortal Realm, and now, seeing these two outstanding human descendants, he couldn't help but want to leave something for them.

"You cultivate the sword, but I am not skilled in the way of the sword. Judging from your realm, you are at the third tribulation of the Immortal Emperor realm. I will send you through one of those tribulations!"

Wu Tianzun first looked at Jian Shiyi, then cast a mark that instantly entered Jian Shiyi's body.

Jian Shiyi felt a jolt throughout his body as a surge of immense immortal energy rushed into his body.

This power actually guided the power of the third tribulation within Jian Shiyi's body directly to the fourth tribulation!
"Thank you for granting me this calamity, senior!"

Jian Shiyi immediately bowed to Wu Tianzun and then began to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation.

Lin Xiao looked at Wu Tianzun, bowed deeply, and made a seemingly unreasonable request.

"Senior, I don't want anything, but the reason I've come to your bedchamber is to ask you for a favor!"

"Oh? Tell me?"

Wu Tianzun became increasingly interested in Lin Xiao. As a powerful Tianzun, Wu Tianzun could sense an extremely strong force within Lin Xiao's body, which might be due to his bloodline or a special physique.

"Your physical body."

Upon hearing this, Wu Tianzun silently looked at Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao was uneasy, knowing that his request was actually quite perverse.

"I'm curious, what do you need my body for?"

Wu Tianzun was not angry, but instead asked a question.

Lin Xiao took a deep breath and then told the whole truth.

"I have a senior who lost his physical body, and I want to help him rebuild it!"

"I never expected you could do that. Heh, kid, interesting, really interesting."

Upon hearing Lin Xiao's words, Wu Tianzun burst into laughter.

"My body holds no meaning for me anymore. If you're interested, take it. Even if you use it to make a puppet, it will help alleviate some of the pressure on the Immortal Realm, which would be a blessing for humanity. Take it. And this Martial God Armor is also yours!" (End of Chapter)
