Chapter 170 Accepting a Disciple
Inside the spacious hall, Su Heng and the Emperor looked at each other.

Su Heng was mainly curious about the Emperor's strength. After all, as one of the top experts in the Origin Continent, this was the first time he had ever seen him!
Meanwhile, Di Xuan was observing Su Heng.

Although he had observed Su Heng many times before, this was the first time they had actually met, and Su Heng was unaware of his observations.

Now that he is facing the emperor directly, how will Su Heng behave?

Time passed slowly, perhaps in an instant, perhaps in several minutes.

In the end, Su Heng was the first to bow slightly to the Emperor and say, "Guest Su Heng greets Your Majesty!"

"Have a seat." Di Xuan smiled at Su Heng, then waved his hand, and a tall seat appeared opposite him.

Upon hearing this, Su Heng sat down in that seat.

“I’ve been looking into your past recently, and you must be from the primordial universe, right?” Di Xuan suddenly said after Su Heng sat down.

Others may find Su Heng's origins quite mysterious.

However, at the Emperor Xuan level, it is not difficult to understand some of it!

After all, a prodigy like Su Heng would never have remained unknown if he had been cultivated by other forces.

Su Heng nodded after hearing this, which was taken as an admission.

The origin of the primordial universe is not a burden, but rather a bonus.

Because this means he has exceptional talent and an impeccable background!

really.

The next moment, Di Xuan smiled approvingly and said, "The beings in the primordial universe are extremely weak, and with the suppression of the supreme rules, it's quite impressive that you were able to come all the way to the Origin Continent and become a Chaos Realm transcendent!"

As for what King Xuan'an said before, that Su Heng might be a reincarnated cultivator?
Di Xuan had never believed this.

After all, he could tell that Su Heng couldn't be very old, which meant that even if Su Heng was a God-King...
Even in reincarnation, it's difficult to find time to cultivate other fundamental paths!
But if a God-King could comprehend four fundamental Daos at once, how could he not have heard of such a God-King!
Moreover, such a god-king is definitely not an ordinary god-king, and it is not impossible to become an enlightened being like him!
So there is only one possibility: Su Heng himself is an extreme prodigy!

Even with a short cultivation period, one can rely on their powerful talent to transcend to the Chaos Realm!
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty," Su Heng said with a smile, neither humble nor arrogant.

Such achievements are mainly due to the help of one's destiny.

Luo Feng, he is the real prodigy!
Although he is currently behind him, Su Heng doesn't know if he can surpass Luo Feng's potential!

"Now that Xuan An has brought you to the Emperor Xuan Palace, you must already know why I've come to find you."

Di Xuan did not continue what he had just said, but instead spoke with a slightly serious expression.

He came to find Su Heng, naturally to take on a disciple.

Even though Prince Xuan'an had already made it clear to Su Heng, he still needed to ask him again in person.

After all, the master-disciple relationship is a significant one, even in the Origin Continent.

Once Su Heng becomes his disciple, other top figures on the Origin Continent will no longer be able to accept Su Heng as their disciple.

In other words, Su Heng's connection with the Di Xuan lineage will become even stronger in the future.

This is something no ordinary guest advisor can compare to!
“King Xuan’an has already spoken,” Su Heng said, nodding slightly.

"Since that's the case, you'd better think it over carefully. Once you decide, there will be no chance to go back on your word!" Di Xuan said calmly.

Su Heng paused briefly upon hearing this.

Becoming a disciple of Emperor Xuan is undoubtedly a good thing.

However, becoming a master and disciple involves more than just cultivation level; personality, temperament, and fundamental path are also very important factors!

Su Heng made his decision very quickly.

"Disciple has thought it through." Su Heng rose from his seat and immediately knelt before Di Xuan, touching his head to the ground in a deep bow! "Disciple Su Heng greets Master."

"Hahaha, good!" Upon seeing this, Di Xuan couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile. "I have a total of seven personal disciples under my command, and now with your addition, you will be the eighth."

As the ancestor of the Di Xuan lineage, he was one of the thirteen emperors of the ancient kingdom.

Over the years, even with his extremely discerning eye, he has still encountered many geniuses worthy of his nurturing!

This also meant that he had a total of eight direct disciples.

The lowest among the top seven is the Chaos Realm Transcendence Realm, and there are even more than five who are at the God King Realm!

"Yes, teacher." Su Heng nodded to indicate that he understood.

Eight disciples are actually quite rare for powerful beings in the primordial universe.

However, for the Origin Continent, which places greater emphasis on cause and effect, this number is already quite large!
Among the thirteen emperors of the ancient kingdom, Emperor Xuan should be considered one who had taken on a great many disciples.

"Since you are becoming my disciple today, I have prepared a few gifts for you," Di Xuan said slowly, looking at Su Heng.

Su Heng's decision to become his disciple was not for fame, but more for resources and inheritance!
Both Di Xuan and Su Heng were tacitly aware of this.

After all, the master-disciple relationship between the two is essentially an investment of interests.

Perhaps they will develop deep feelings for each other after many years, but for now, they naturally need enough mutual benefit to maintain their relationship!
"As a first gift, the two inheritances you chose, 'The Thirty-Six Swords of Annihilation' and 'Exploration of Cause and Effect,' can be directly used to cultivate the later levels. Of course, the inheritances I give you will not exceed the ultimate level of God King."

"Furthermore, in addition to the two inheritances mentioned above, you may choose two more inheritances to cultivate. However, these two inheritances can only be given to those at the second level of the God King realm at most."

Di Xuan spoke slowly, but the conditions he offered surprised and delighted Su Heng!

The Thirty-Six Swords of Annihilation and the Search for Cause and Effect need no further explanation. These two secret techniques at the Chaos Origin level are invaluable, even if they can only be given to the God King at the highest level!
Now that Di Xuan has given it to him directly, it can be said that this will definitely save Su Heng a lot of time.

Not only within the Chaos Realm, but even in the future within the God King Realm, Su Heng will have a long time without worrying about the Hunyuan-level inherited secret techniques!
As for the other two inheritances, they also possess extremely high value.

But Su Heng didn't value it much.

Although he has now cultivated four fundamental Daos, everything requires a gradual and progressive approach.

If Su Heng wants to cultivate into a God King sooner, he must slow down the cultivation of several fundamental Daos.

After all, with his current level of understanding, his comprehension of the four fundamental Daos is already more than enough.

Continuing to cultivate the Hunyuan Secret Technique would not actually help him much, and might even delay his progress to God King!

The gifts bestowed by Emperor Xuan are far from over!
"This is my second gift to you." Di Xuan looked at Su Heng, and with a flick of his hand took out a stone box. Inside the box were ten pale red fruits.

“This is the ‘Hunyuan Crystal Spirit Fruit’, which was given to me by the Ancestor. It’s of no use to me now, so I’m giving you ten.”

The Hunyuan Crystal Spirit Fruit, a strange spiritual fruit that Di Chu gave to Luo Feng in the original novel, is a fruit tree of the Hunyuan level. Its greatest effect is to strengthen the soul and greatly enhance comprehension, which can be considered as indirectly improving one's cultivation of the fundamental Dao.

The value of such a rare treasure goes without saying; even the thirteen emperors wouldn't possess many of it.

The fact that Emperor Xuan is now giving away ten coins shows that he values ​​Su Heng highly!

However, for Su Heng, although this Hunyuan Crystal Spirit Fruit was quite valuable, it was of little use to him.

After all, a sudden enlightenment about one's destiny is far more valuable than these so-called rare and exotic fruits!
Moreover, over countless years, his destiny has gradually enhanced Su Heng's comprehension, and now Su Heng's comprehension has reached an extremely high level.

The improvement that the Hunyuan Crystal Spirit Fruit gave him was probably negligible.

Besides the Hunyuan Crystal Fruit, Di Xuan also asked Su Heng about weapons.

The longsword that Su Heng is currently using is the Silver Star sword that he obtained from Duan Donghe.

It was the embryo of a God-King weapon. After Su Heng nurtured it for countless years, it can now barely be called a weapon of the first level of God-King!

However, Di Xuan naturally looked down on the first level of the God King realm, so he decided to help Su Heng improve the potential of his weapon.

But just as he was about to unleash his secret technique, Su Heng interrupted him.

"Teacher, just give me the materials, and I will nurture and forge the embryo again later!" Su Heng said with a smile.

"You forged it yourself?" Di Xuan was somewhat surprised.

After all, with his intervention, this weapon is sure to reach the ultimate level of a God-King. Such a weapon is enough for Su Heng to use for a long time!
However, upon further reflection, Di Xuan recalled another piece of information about Su Heng.

A Chaos Realm Mystic Blacksmith!

Clearly, Su Heng needed the materials because he wanted to forge his own weapons.

In this way, he will be better suited to this weapon in the future, and the potential of this weapon may even reach the level of Hunyuan!
Having figured this out, Di Xuan did not refuse and handed the rare materials to Su Heng.

If it were one of his other disciples, he would have firmly refused them.

After all, the path of forging is equally difficult, and even if they have endless lifespans, it is difficult for them to cultivate multiple paths at the same time.

Weapons at the ultimate level of the God-King are sufficient for use within the Source World.

There's absolutely no need to spend any extra effort learning any forging techniques!
But since it was Su Heng, Di Xuan had no other opinions.

Having comprehended all four fundamental paths, it's not a big deal to then devote some time to cultivating a forging technique.

Moreover, Su Heng himself is a Chaos-level blacksmith, so he must be quite talented in forging.

Of course, most importantly, Di Xuan believed that Su Heng indeed had the potential to reach the Hunyuan level.

The value of a Hunyuan weapon is self-evident.

Emperor Xuan was naturally very happy to be able to support himself.

The three gifts were all priceless.

This was enough to show how much Emperor Xuan valued Su Heng. However, after giving these three gifts, Emperor Xuan did not offer anything more.

Although Su Heng has already become his apprentice, he hasn't made any contributions yet. The fact that he can give him three gifts is already considered extremely generous!
Di Xuan looked at Su Heng and said, "The Ancestor has decreed that even a direct disciple must accumulate merit on his own. So if you want to exchange for any resources in the future, you will have to fight for them yourself!"

"Yes, teacher!" Su Heng nodded respectfully.

As for merits, with his current level of cultivation, he is more than capable of completing most tasks, and he will certainly not lack merits in the future!

"Well, you can ask me about secret techniques, origins, and laws. My main expertise lies in the Boundless Origin Dao and the Time Origin Dao. If you have any ideas in these areas, you can ask me," Di Xuan continued.

Leaving aside the Boundless Origin Dao, Su Heng has also dabbled in the Origin Dao of Time, so giving him some pointers is nothing special.

As for other things like life, destruction, and the origin of cause and effect, those are not the fundamental principles he is good at.

In terms of cultivation level, he's probably not much stronger than Su Heng, so Di Xuan didn't bother to boast.

Otherwise, if the guidance fails, wouldn't that diminish the trust and respect the disciple holds in their heart?

"Alright, do you have any questions for me now?" Di Xuan asked Su Heng.

"Regarding the origin of time, this disciple still has a few questions," Su Heng's eyes lit up, and he immediately voiced his concerns.

Time and cause and effect are the two fundamental principles he values ​​most. Now that an emperor who cultivates the fundamental principle of time is personally guiding him, Su Heng will naturally not let this opportunity slip by easily.

Di Xuan didn't say anything about this, and did his best to resolve Su Heng's confusion.

As a result, Su Heng's understanding of the fundamental Dao of time is also slowly increasing.

However, it will certainly take a long time to guide you to the fundamental principles.

Therefore, from the outside world, Su Heng always stayed in the Emperor Xuan Palace.

There are even rumors that Su Heng, with the Emperor's help, is already breaking through to the God King realm!

Xuan Hui and Luo Feng naturally knew that such rumors were nonsense.

However, the two of them were still quite envious of this.

After all, that is the Emperor's legacy!
Such a thing is rare even in the entire ancient kingdom!
Su Heng stayed in the Emperor Xuan Palace, clearly receiving guidance from Emperor Xuan. This was something that even Xuan Hui, who came from a royal family, had never experienced, let alone Luo Feng!

"Brother Luo, it seems that it will be quite some time before Brother Su returns."

Inside Luo Feng's cave, Xuan Hui chuckled and said.

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng smiled slightly. Although he was envious, he was genuinely happy for his teacher.

“Brother Xuanhui can now consider taking on missions. With our teacher back, our foundation is already incredibly strong, so there’s no need to wait another thirty epochs.”

Luo Feng pondered for a moment, then suddenly spoke.

Although first-class marquises initially enjoy a period of stability lasting thirty centuries, this can also be a constraint for geniuses.

With the current foundation of the Xuanhui Marquis's mansion, it is by no means inferior to any established first-class marquis.

Continuing to wait for the stable period of the 30th century would only be a waste of time.

"Brother Luo is right. Now that Brother Su has become a disciple of the Ancestor, there must be a great need for him to accumulate merit. I'll go and see if there are any suitable tasks!"

Xuan Hui nodded heavily; he knew far more about the royal family!
Therefore, he understood the desire of these disciples for merit, and now that Luo Feng had reminded him, he naturally had to do his best to satisfy Su Heng.
