Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 266 Venerable Xuechen

Bai Yang was taken aback and immediately instructed Xing Shou to inform the guards to treat him well.

He rushed out of the room and ran quickly toward the manor gate.

Upon arriving at the manor gate, he sensed something was amiss.

Not only Rouye and his entire guard, but also everyone else looked serious and respectful.

Even Heqia somehow got here, and even arrived a little faster than him.

At this moment, he stood humbly beside an elderly man in a long robe.

His expression and demeanor were exactly like someone who had met their boss.

The old man had white hair, his hands behind his back, looking quite content.

Bai Yang dared not be negligent and quickly welcomed the Venerable One into the reception room, while dismissing everyone else.

He personally brewed a cup of tea and handed it to the person opposite him.

"Haha, young master, no need for such formalities."

The old man carefully took the teacup with both hands and spoke first.

The look in his eyes as he looked at Bai Yang was full of admiration and praise.

"Venerable Xuechen, what did you call me?"

Bai Yang was startled by this title and quickly asked.

"Young Master, there's no need to be surprised," Venerable Xuechen said with a smile.

"I know you have many questions. With your current level of authority, Young Master, you wouldn't know what the Hongmeng is."

Simply put, this is a massive alliance that encompasses the human race and countless other races in the universe.

If I had to define my identity, I would say I'm the manager of a shop within the Hongmeng Alliance.

But actually, I am a servant of the great Lord of Dragons. Now you probably understand, right?

Bai Yang was surprised, of course he knew the name of the Lord of Dragons.

After cultivating the Dragon-Traveling Chaos Stele, he paid even more attention to information about the other party.

Upon hearing Xuechen's words, he immediately thought of the name Yubaotang.

The unusual behavior of Heqia and Ruye became clear in an instant.

This is a true god of wealth!

How could such a supreme being of the universe call himself "Young Master"?!

"Venerable Xuechen, does this mean the great Lord of Dragons intends to take me as his disciple?"

Bai Yang asked incredulously.

Venerable Xuechen clapped his hands and laughed loudly, "Young Master is indeed clever, that's exactly right!"

The master was initially hesitant, but after you, young master, reached the ninth level of the Heavenly Bridge, he made his decision.

"I'm officially accepting you as a 'probationary disciple,' which is why I was asked to come here today."

Suppressing his excitement, Bai Yang asked, "Teacher, do you have any requests for me?"

Venerable Xuechen smiled and said, "Young Master, there's no need to worry."

Master, he only ever took on four disciples in his entire life.

Unfortunately, they all perished later.

You are the foremost person of your time, and the only disciple who is not a dragon.

"Not a dragon person?" Bai Yang asked in confusion.

Venerable Xuechen nodded and said, "Yes!"

The master is a dragon-human race within the human population, and he favors disciples of his own race.

However, the number of dragon people is too small in the entire human race, so masters are always cautious about accepting disciples.

Young master, you are the naked ape clan, which has the highest proportion among human populations.

The fact that your master is willing to make an exception for you is enough to prove how much he values ​​you.

Once you break through to the Realm Lord level, you will become the Master's official disciple.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yang immediately understood its meaning.

Just as the True King was actually a member of the Kahuns tribe within the ape-man race, there are actually many and very detailed sub-races within the human race.

Ai Chen, isn't he a member of the Dream Wing Clan?

It's natural for everyone to have a preference for people of their own race, and that's perfectly understandable.

It is only natural that the Lord of Dragons would prefer to take on disciples of the Dragonkin race.

Bai Yang instantly thought of the tail [Six Styles] that he had recently mastered.

This attack method would be much more suitable for the dragon-human race if it were used with their dragon tails than for the tailless naked ape race.

In this situation, the Lord of Dragons still made an exception, which means he truly admires himself.

Bai Yang then said, "Thank you for your kindness, Lord Dragon Journey. I am naturally willing to become your disciple."

There is just one problem.

All of us in this cohort are subordinates of the Nine Swords Venerable, and the Venerable himself once gave me guidance.

They also said they would contact me again after I left the initial universe.

"Hahaha, young master, you don't need to worry about this."

Has he contacted you recently? No, right?

In fact, the master and many other cosmic beings already knew that he wanted to take you as his disciple.

Even several cosmic lords have heard about it.

Young Master, you need not worry.

Venerable Xuechen had a smile on his face.

Bai Yang's ability to think of this and not immediately become complacent is a personality trait that aligns better with his expectations.

If he finds a stronger master, he immediately forgets the predecessors who once guided him.

He wouldn't like that kind of person.

The old man in the long robe waved his right hand, and suddenly more than a dozen huge metal boxes appeared in the reception room.

He clapped his hands lightly.

All the box lids opened at the same time, revealing the contents inside.

Bai Yang turned his head and saw that the room was filled with books, at least a hundred of them.

"Young Master, you may not know this."

The master wrote a book called "Dragon's Journey Notes" specifically for disciples who wanted to cultivate the "Dragon's Journey Chaos Stele".

This set of books is nothing more than helping others comprehend the Chaos Stele; it contains some common secret techniques.

With He Qiya's guidance during the early stages of building your foundation, your foundation will definitely be very solid.

Next, you can refer to this set of books to find the method that best suits your skill development.

Bai Yang understood perfectly well that this was just a book similar to "Time and Space Essays".

It is likely that every creator of a Chaos Monument left behind such a set of teaching materials for future generations.

Judging from Luo Feng's example, the complete set of this book is worth at least 100 billion points!

It's possible that Venerable Xuechen brought him everything today!

As a disciple of the Dragon Lord, he certainly wouldn't be allowed to spend money on this kind of book; otherwise, what would be the point of taking him as a disciple?

Sure enough, he heard Venerable Xuechen continue speaking:

"The master is also known for his great wealth among the lords of the universe."

However, at the beginning, we really can't give the young master too much wealth.

This set of "Dragon's Journey Essays" isn't cheap, so I took the liberty of getting it all for you.

Young master, you must be careful.

This book series tells the story of the Dragon's Journey to the Chaos Stele, with the core concept being the law of time, but it actually contains countless secret techniques.

How much you can comprehend depends entirely on you, young master.

But never get lost in secret techniques; understanding the laws is the true path.

Bai Yang naturally understood this principle and immediately expressed his gratitude by storing it in his World Ring.

Venerable Xuechen said:

"The master has high hopes for the young master's future, but given his strength, he is not yet suitable to personally guide you."

Young Master, you have only just entered the Primal Secret Realm. I suggest you spend a few years carefully studying this set of books.

If one can grasp even a fraction of the true meaning of the master's secret techniques, then one will reap immeasurable benefits.

Bai Yang nodded in agreement: "Rest assured, Your Excellency. I will definitely solidify my foundation before delving into the secret techniques."

After offering a few more words of encouragement, Venerable Xuechen left.

After returning to his study, Bai Yang couldn't wait to start reading.
