Age of Calamity in Swallowed Star

Chapter 152: Venerable One's Inheritance and Treasures! [6,000-Word Chapter, Please Subscribe]

When Lin Ye stepped onto the suspended land, the colorful light in front of him suddenly twisted.

Immediately, the entire island disappeared in a blur, turning into a pitch-black void.

Behind him, the mournful howls from the depths also vanished, returning to silence.

At this moment, he seemed to have entered a completely dark world.

However, before Lin Ye could even feel a hint of doubt, that familiar crimson light erupted once again, enveloping him entirely.

The feeling of spatial distortion returned, and in an instant, Lin Ye felt as if he had been twisted into a pretzel.

When the distortion disappeared and his feet touched solid ground,

he found himself standing in an ultra-luxurious hall that was hundreds of meters high and two thousand meters wide.

Looking around, the entire hall was empty.

There was nothing there.

"This must be the control room of this ancient civilization's ruins!"

Lin Ye thought to himself as he scanned his surroundings.

At the same time, he also noticed the anomalies in his sea of consciousness and dantian.

Whether it was his dantian or his sea of consciousness, a third miniature planet was slowly condensing within each.

However, they were both still just rough outlines.

At this moment, Lin Ye diverted a wisp of his consciousness to access the information panel.

To his surprise, he found that the progress of both [Realm] and [Mental Power] was at 60%.

"I'll probably be able to break through to Planet Level Tier 3 soon!"

In high spirits, he used the dim light emanating from an unknown source, and his eyes, which could see as clearly as day in the darkness, continued to search carefully.

Suddenly, Lin Ye's gaze sharpened, and he stopped at a certain spot.

He discovered that not far away, there was a large pile of things, seemingly wrapped up.

At this moment, Lin Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, focused his gaze, and his heart immediately filled with joy—

it turned out that the outermost wrapping was the combat vest he used to store treasures such as grass and wood spirits.

"Haha, my grass and wood spirits and Muyajian crystals… they're all here, thankfully they weren't lost!"

Stepping forward, Lin Ye carefully picked up the package and checked it carefully.

Especially the rice-fragrant white crystals, a treasure containing powerful life force that could allow mid- to high-level War Gods to enter the Planet Level in a short period of time,

was extremely scarce for both himself and the entire Great Xia.

Just as Lin Ye finished counting the last grass and wood spirit, a crisp sound rang out in the empty hall.

Immediately, the entire luxurious hall lit up.

Lights shone straight down from the center of the hall.

Bright but not dazzling, emitting a soft glow that made Lin Ye feel incredibly comfortable.

At the same time, the lights around the hall converged in the center along a strange path, illuminating three light positions.

Under Lin Ye's gaze, three human figures slowly materialized, appearing in Lin Ye's field of vision.

"Finally here!"

When he saw the familiar red robe in the middle, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As for the other two, Lin Ye had not intended to look at them.

However, as his gaze swept across, he inadvertently glanced at the white-clothed girl among them.

In an instant, Lin Ye was somewhat stunned in place.

He had never seen such a beautiful girl!

The expression of astonishment was fleeting, and Lin Ye instantly regained control of his expression, turning to look at the white figure with a calm face.

This young girl, like a fairy from a celestial realm, possessed an exquisite beauty.

Her white dress, like contrasting snow, added a touch of cold and transcendent aura to her.

"What a beautiful person!" Lin Ye thought to himself.

Immediately, like a proper gentleman, he shifted his gaze to the red-clothed middle-aged man at the head and said preemptively:

"Venerable Fen Chen, I have passed the two trials you set, now it's time to fulfill your promise, right?"

"That's right, you didn't try to be opportunistic, but instead passed the two trials I set in a straightforward manner!"

"And your performance in the two trial grounds can be described as amazing enough. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that the one who passed the trials would be just a boy with a bone age of eighteen!"

Venerable Fen Chen's eyes, which were as still as an ancient well, rippled slightly, his voice filled with emotion.

And for a Universe Venerable to be so moved, it was undoubtedly a great honor for Lin Ye.

"Venerable, you flatter me. Lin Ye completely relied on luck to comprehend the Nirvana Domain in the face of life and death."

"This greatly improved my movement, saber techniques, and reaction speed, so I had this chance of survival!"

Lin Ye's voice was unhurried and calm, speaking very euphemistically.

It looked as if he had really relied only on luck to pass the two trials set by Venerable Fen Chen in succession.

The reason was simple.

If Lin Ye before was just a clueless youth who didn't know what kind of existence Venerable Fen Chen was,

then now, after replenishing his missing memories, he had a full understanding of the level and plot of this world.

At this time, Lin Ye was very clear about what a Universe Venerable represented.

Universe Venerables were super powerhouses among the human race in the universe.

An supreme existence far surpassing the Immortal Gods!

"Explaining is just covering up, I know everything about this process."

"I really didn't expect that the trial ground I set up on a whim would unexpectedly yield results." Venerable Fen Chen's voice was somewhat gratified and complex.

Lin Ye: "…"

"However, there is a question in my mind?"

Venerable Fen Chen changed the subject, looking at Lin Ye with a pair of deep, watery eyes, and slowly asked: "During the second trial of mental state, you clearly had the opportunity to complete it in one fell swoop, right?"

"But why… did you stop for a while on the nine hundred and ninetieth black stone step? Why is that?"

"I had some epiphany at that time!"

Looking at Venerable Fen Chen, Lin Ye lied without blushing or skipping a beat, saying, "At that time, the demonic sound from the abyss and the fluctuations emitted by the black stone steps made my mental power resonate, giving rise to a feeling of epiphany, feeling like there was some improvement, so this junior stopped there!"

"Some epiphany? Hehe… As expected of a genius who can comprehend the Fire Domain in the face of life and death, your performance is considered outstanding even in a universe country!"

Hearing her master's praise, the white-clothed girl nodded her head lightly, her clear eyes filled with curiosity, and nodded repeatedly.

"Thank you for your praise, Venerable." Lin Ye replied neither humble nor arrogant, meeting Venerable Fen Chen's eyes and looking over.

"I already know about your past and character on this life planet. Although this trial ground is located tens of thousands of meters in Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, I am fully aware of any information happening in today's world."

Venerable Fen Chen looked at Lin Ye with a loving expression, very much like a kind elder looking at a junior.

"Then do you know what time it is now?" Lin Ye looked at the red-robed middle-aged man in front of him and asked somewhat eagerly.

"Don't worry, you haven't been in this trial ground for more than a day, the time ratio here is exactly the same as the outside world."

At this time, the young girl beside Venerable Fen Chen explained.

Her voice was clear and melodious, like a mountain stream flowing gently.

"Not even a day!" Lin Ye nodded, his eyes gleaming.

He had previously thought that this trial was 'one day here, a hundred years in the human world' in terms of time flow, which had scared him.

Now that he heard the girl's explanation, the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Immediately, Lin Ye turned to look at Venerable Fen Chen and said somewhat excitedly: "Since I have passed the trial, shouldn't I be given some rewards…"

Speaking of the word 'rewards', his eyes lit up and his face showed a deep look of anticipation.

"Rewards for passing the level?" Venerable Fen Chen said with a smile, "There will definitely be rewards, and you won't be shortchanged!"

After saying that, he looked around and said calmly: "Lin Ye, since you have passed the Venerable's trial, then everything here is yours!"

Venerable Fen Chen's gaze fell on the white-clothed girl Chan'er and the red-haired alien Huo Rong, and he said with relief: "And you can also get my inheritance, cultivation secrets, and experience in comprehending various laws and secret techniques, but…"

Speaking halfway, the red-clothed middle-aged man changed the subject and looked at Lin Ye solemnly: "You are now only at the initial stage of the Planet Level, and all cultivation should focus on laying the foundation and getting started, so Chan'er will teach you about cultivation and improvement!"

"Lin Ye, I am Jun Xichan, an intelligent life created by the master. I will be in charge of your cultivation in the future!"

Nodding slightly towards Lin Ye, Jun Xichan smiled brightly and said, "You can call me 'Chan'er' in the future!"

Lin Ye looked at the beautiful girl like a snow lotus on the Tianshan Mountains and nodded lightly: "Hello, Chan'er, may I ask if you are now an intelligent life, or do you have a physical existence?"

Seeing the young man's strange gaze that looked her up and down, Chan'er naturally understood what he meant.

She looked at Lin Ye coldly and replied: "What you see is just my transformed metal body. A long time ago, the master prepared an evolutionary heart for me so that I could both cultivate and evolve, and also manipulate the system in the form of an ordinary intelligent life."

"Understood, then I'll leave my cultivation to you in the future!" Lin Ye said with a smile, his clear eyes showing his sincerity,

"No problem, as long as you follow my cultivation plan, we can even pile you up to the World Lord level with time!"

Seeing Lin Ye's envious look with stars in his eyes, the girl Chan'er proudly raised her head and continued to explain to this 'young man': "You may not have been exposed to things outside this life planet, and you may not be very clear about the level divisions in the universe, so I will tell you a few things."

"Apprentice level, Planet level, Star level, Universe level, Domain Lord level… and the Immortal Gods after the World Lord realm, and Universe Venerables like the master who are many times stronger than the Immortals!"

"So many realms, in that case, Venerable Fen Chen is the most powerful existence in this world." Lin Ye blinked at the girl Chan'er and asked.

"Not really, I am just a high-level Universe Venerable. Above me, there are also Universe Overlords, Universe Masters, and even the strongest realm that surpasses the Universe Master!"

When talking about the later realms, Lin Ye clearly felt the desire in Venerable Fen Chen's words.

He quietly noted these down, but in fact, he had already mastered them, and he was secretly excited in his heart.

"That's right, the master was severely injured by Tianhua Venerable, the Universe Overlord of the Sky Wolf Clan, which led to his slumber!" Chan'er added.

Lin Ye: "…"

Hearing this, Lin Ye's forehead was immediately covered with black lines.

That was the top Universe Overlord of the demon race!

Even a light breath could destroy countless star fields.

And he was just a Planet level martial artist who had just stepped onto the path of cultivation.

He could be considered a peak powerhouse on Earth, but in the universe, he was completely the lowest level cannon fodder…

"There is no need to say more if your strength is not as good as others." Venerable Fen Chen sighed softly, his figure seemed to become more transparent.

He glanced at the white-clothed girl and the burly red-haired alien, and said in a deep voice.

"Chan'er is responsible for your cultivation and improvement, and Huo Rong is the puppet guard prepared for you!"

"Huo Rong!"

"Here!" The red-haired alien took a step forward, his simple and honest face showing a smile, and smiled at Lin Ye: "Lin Ye, I am Huo Rong, and I will be your guard from now on!"

"This is a special puppet that I personally modified from an alien Immortal. You don't need to worry about loyalty at all."

Venerable Fen Chen said, "Although Huo Rong does not have the strength of a Venerable, he also has the strength of a King level initial stage, and his loyalty is beyond doubt. He is enough to guard you for a long, long time."

"After my modification, Huo Rong's whole body has been fitted with some extremely special metals, which are very suitable for exploring dangerous places and entangling enemies!"

As he said that, Venerable Fen Chen's eyes showed a look of reminiscence: "In the beginning, I used four hundred alien Immortal Gods to modify them, and it took me many years to finally modify twelve Immortal puppets,

Their strength at that time was only the general Army Lord level realm, and now, after endless years, they have gradually accumulated to this King level realm."

"More than four hundred alien Immortal Gods… to modify into puppets!?" Hearing this, Lin Ye's heart shook violently.

"Actually, I also have many Immortal God followers."

"It's just that they are scattered in the four directions of the universe. Chan'er will take you to travel through this universe in the future, and then you can meet them."

"Okay, I also like to make friends with powerhouses from all directions!" Lin Ye nodded, a look of surprise on his face.

Since he knew the plot of this world, in addition to working hard to improve his own strength and realm, he also made friends widely.

After all, he was very clear about the principle that having more friends means having more paths.

"Now I'll talk about serious business!" As Venerable Fen Chen's voice fell.

The giant red-haired alien puppet with a height of five meters immediately walked behind Lin Ye and began his guarding duty from this moment on.

"Venerable Fen Chen, this battle suit I'm wearing is very comfortable, so I won't take it off!" Lin Ye looked down at his whole body and was very satisfied with this battle suit.

It was many times stronger than his previous S-level suit, whether in terms of attack, defense, or flexibility.

"You kid really know your stuff. What you're wearing now is just the most basic Fire God suit, but even so, it can still withstand attacks from Planet level Tier 9 opponents, and it can also transform weapons and fly, a high-end product that is hard to come by in this universe!"

Speaking of this battle suit, Venerable Fen Chen was somewhat proud.

This was his masterpiece battle armor.

“This ‘Vulcan Set’ was created by the master with a lot of effort. It is divided into ranks one to five, corresponding to the Planetary to World Master levels. You won’t have to worry about not having battle armor to wear when the time comes,” the white-clothed girl Chan’er continued to add from the side.

The light of the entire hall fell on her, and with her stunning beauty, she was like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world.

If she were on Earth, she would be enough to drive any man crazy.

“Gulp!”

Lin Ye swallowed lightly, looked at Venerable Fenchen, and couldn't wait to ask, “Venerable Fenchen, can I know now what treasures I can get?”

“What an impatient kid. You haven’t even become my disciple yet, and you already want these things?” The red-clothed Venerable stepped forward and came within a foot of Lin Ye.

He looked at Lin Ye very carefully.

Being stared at by such a powerful existence made Lin Ye feel a little uncomfortable.

But he finally endured it.

“I never thought that I, Fenchen, who has roamed the universe for countless years, would actually have a disciple!”

Venerable Fenchen said with emotion, “Having a disciple feels really strange. At first, I thought it would be similar to taking in a few followers, but I was thinking too much.”

“Lin Ye, kid, remember, I, Fenchen, am your first master!”

The red-clothed middle-aged man put his hands behind his back and continued, “Today is also the first time I’ve taken in a disciple, so I’ll let Chan’er teach you from now on. Of course, I also have my own preparations!”

Venerable Fenchen suddenly smiled, and he stretched out his right hand and tapped his finger lightly.

Suddenly, a crystal-clear, crimson, rhombus-shaped crystal flew out, containing his own detailed records of the cultivation process.

There were also images of him demonstrating moves, and fighting with secret techniques.

Since he was a direct disciple, Venerable Fenchen would not be stingy at all.

As soon as this rhombus-shaped crystal appeared, it flew directly into Lin Ye’s sea of consciousness.

At this time, as long as Lin Ye moved his mind, he could absorb the almost endless experience contained within it bit by bit.

“I don’t know how to teach disciples, so I condensed some of my cultivation experience, secret techniques, and insights into this spiritual imprint, and then handed you over to Chan’er to teach. But I also have some advice for you,”

“The universe country you are in is under the jurisdiction of my old friend ‘Universe’s Biggest Debtor,’ Country Lord Qianwu. If you have the opportunity in the future, you can get closer to his lineage. Here, take this!”

With that, a stream of crimson light shot out from Venerable Fenchen.

A palm-sized, square, crystal-clear, crimson jade pendant floated in front of Lin Ye.

He reached out and grasped it, and immediately felt a warmth in his palm, and his whole body was extremely comfortable.

He opened his five fingers and looked at the token in his palm, with the words ‘Fenchen’ engraved on it.

Just one glance made Lin Ye feel like he had fallen into an endless sea of fire, feeling his whole body burning.

But there was no burning pain at all, but a warm feeling.

In an instant, Lin Ye felt that the two miniature planets in his body were stimulated, trembling slightly, and then accelerated their rotation, continuously absorbing cosmic energy and transforming it into his own fire-attribute gene energy.

“This is the Fenchen Token made from ‘Star God Jade.’ In the future, you can show it to the Qianwu royal family, and they will naturally recognize it.”

“Not only them, but even the high-level officials of other advanced cosmic civilizations will give me face. It will be very good for your future travels and cultivation!”

The red-clothed middle-aged man smiled, “Although the alien races hate me, Venerable Fenchen, to the bone, my reputation in the human territory is still quite good. It would be great if I were stronger!”

Lin Ye nodded.

He also understood that the Venerable Fenchen in front of him was a high-level cosmic venerable at the same level as Country Lord Qianwu, and his strength and experience were far beyond what he had seen.

“In addition, there are several trial grounds left on this life planet by my followers and some other existences. If you want to go, let Chan’er take you there in the future!” Venerable Fenchen continued, his eyes seeming to cover Lin Ye completely.

“Also… since you are a disciple of my Venerable Fenchen, and I have made an exception to accept a Planetary-level disciple, you must take first place in the next Peak Genius Battle, I said!”

“Peak Genius Battle?” Lin Ye frowned slightly, and then asked, “What is first place in the Peak Genius Battle?”

“Chan’er will tell you the details later. In short, you must take first place in the Genius Battle, otherwise all the resources you need for cultivation to become an Immortal will be cut off!” Venerable Fenchen said very domineeringly with his hands behind his back.

“Okay, I will work hard!” Lin Ye looked at the red-clothed middle-aged man and nodded heavily.

“Bullshit, I don’t want you to work hard, I need you to do your best!” Venerable Fenchen stared at Lin Ye with his eyes, and said in a very serious tone, “If the first disciple taught by my Fenchen can’t take first place in the Genius Battle, what will be my reputation in Chaos City?”

“So, good disciple…” The change in address caught Lin Ye off guard.

The latter could only nod repeatedly and respond: “Disciple Lin Ye respectfully obeys Master’s orders and will definitely do his best to win the first place in the next Universe Genius Battle and bring glory to Master!”

“Hahaha… This is my good disciple! Okay, that’s basically it. I’m very relieved to have Chan’er guide you on the road of cultivation. Now I’m going to ask some old friends for help to find a way to quickly restore my divine body!”

“Master, didn’t you say you were going to sleep?”

“Sleep? That was before I had a successor!”

“Now that I, Fenchen, have a disciple, even if I have to borrow treasures, I will quickly restore my divine body and go to some dangerous places to find treasures and opportunities, so I have to plan ahead for my first disciple!”

Looking at the radiant Lin Ye, the red-clothed middle-aged man couldn’t help but say.

“I’m done, kid, can you call me ‘Master’ one more time?”

Lin Ye looked up at Venerable Fenchen with a solemn expression.

No matter what, this powerful Venerable Fenchen, who was taking in a disciple for the first time, had done him a great favor and was also very concerned about his safety, sending a puppet to protect him. He was also willing to shout loudly: “Disciple Lin Ye, pays respect to Master!”

“Good, good, good, maybe you will have several masters in the future, but I, Fenchen, only have you as a disciple. Remember, you must do your best to become stronger.”

“Master will be waiting for the news of your first place in the Genius Battle in Chaos City, to welcome you and cleanse the dust for you, and to host a banquet for the entire Chaos City!” Venerable Fenchen said with a smile, and then his figure gradually became transparent.

“Chan’er, Huorong, I’ll leave my first disciple to you two. You must take good care of him for me!”

“Yes, Master!” The two said in unison.

Before the words fell, the soul belonging to Venerable Fenchen directly dissipated.

Looking at the dissipating soul of Venerable Fenchen.

Chan’er and Huorong were very emotional. They had been waiting here with their master for too long.

It’s just that the trials set by Venerable Fenchen were too difficult, and this life planet was located in a very remote location, so it was very rare to find a trial taker.

But these trial takers had too little talent, and they often ended in failure.

Now, after countless years, their master finally accepted his first disciple. Both Chan’er and Huorong were very happy.

For a time, the eyes of the two looking at Lin Ye were like looking at a companion, with some envy.

The reason is very simple

Because the inheritance treasures left by Venerable Fenchen at the beginning of setting up the trial were very rich.

Even taking out the lowest treasure at random would make countless Planetary-level and Star-level people crazy.

Not to mention those advanced treasures, all of which were carefully selected by Venerable Fenchen and were of immeasurable value.

Lin Ye looked at the two and wanted to ask about the whereabouts of his master, but he swallowed the words when they reached his lips.

“I know what you want to ask, but your strength is still too weak!”

“When your strength breaks through to become a World Master, I will tell you more about the heroic deeds of the master!”

Perhaps it was because he hadn’t been happy for too long.

Looking at Lin Ye’s hesitant appearance, the puppet Huorong also showed a sly smile on his honest old face, and joked with a smile.

Lin Ye: “……”

“Lin Ye.”

The white-clothed girl’s smile grew stronger, and a rare smile appeared on her cold face, “Follow me, let’s go see the treasures that Master left for you!”

With that, she and the puppet Huorong turned around and swept towards the core of the ruins.

Although it was late, it arrived, let everyone see, thank you for waiting.
