Chapter 1507: Chapter 1507: You Are Qualified to Receive My Legacy

Tick-tock—Tick-tock—

Clear, transparent water droplets dripped down the leaves onto the young man’s handsome face.

He lay unconscious on the grass, his expression very peaceful, and his breathing exceptionally steady.

The young man was none other than Yang Yan, who had vanished from Earth without a trace, so much so that even a super deity like Fu Xi couldn’t track him down.

Yang Yan slowly woke up under the pattering of the droplets.

When he first opened his eyes, he felt somewhat dazed.

After his eyes adjusted to the sunlight, he began to carefully observe his unfamiliar surroundings.

The moment he saw the scene in front of him clearly, he was completely stunned.

The place was teeming with life, spiritual medicines everywhere, and the density of Spiritual Qi was at least three times that of Wandering Dragon Star.

For a moment, he even thought he had arrived at the Grotto Heaven Blessed Land created by the Black Dragon Emperor again.

However, upon closer comparison, it was obvious that the Spiritual Qi here was purer, the surroundings more natural, without a trace of artificial marks.

Most importantly, the area was exceedingly vast.

Earlier, Yang Yan attempted to probe as far as he could with his Spiritual Sense, only to find he could not reach the edges.

Consider that with his current strength, if there were no special forces suppressing the surroundings, his Spiritual Sense should easily extend a thousand miles.

Yang Yan took a deep breath, instantly feeling as if all his internal organs were purified; the True Qi within him required no guidance to start circulating automatically.

Moreover, it flowed smoothly, with no sensation of obstruction.

Dragon-shaped Grass, Ten Thousand Year Ginseng, Taiyi Yin Yang Grass...

Yang Yan walked along, gazing at them with a face full of greed.

Outside, these spiritual medicines were very hard to come by, yet here they were as easy to pick as cabbages.

He gradually became numb and gave up the idea of claiming them for himself.

He steadied his mind and continued walking toward the towering tree ahead.

Upon approaching, he was deeply shocked by the scene before him, unable to calm down for a long time.

An extraordinarily large tree stood before him, like a pillar supporting the heavens and the earth, with lush leaves that blocked out the sky and sun.

The starry river wound above, and occasionally the brilliant light from the stars shone through the gaps in the leaves, casting mysterious light and shadow on the ground.

The tree’s thick trunk was clearly engraved with the patterns of the Dao, faintly visible, floating with a majestic breath of Dao Qi.

Besides, some fruit like jade hung on the tree, causing one’s heart to sway and giving rise to a sense of reverence and worship.

"This is..."

Seeing the giant tree clearly, Yang Yan was indescribably excited.

He was silent for a long time, then murmured to himself: "A new World Tree."

This tree was different from the slightly withered World Tree on the Ancient Battlefield, which seemed to have exhausted its life.

Its Life Force was overwhelmingly powerful.

Powerful enough to directly nurture life here.

This was absolutely beyond what the World Tree on the Ancient Battlefield, which had lost too much power, could accomplish.

This tree was undoubtedly a divine object born to carry the fate of the earth and the heavens.

Most importantly, this tree could independently form a world, directly evolve life, and nurture all things.

"Could it be that World Trees have different attributes and functions?" Yang Yan muttered to himself, bowing his head and pondering silently.

At this moment, Yang Yan finally understood why this place was filled with spiritual medicines and thick with True Qi.

Being close to the Origin of the world naturally creates such a treasure land, doesn’t it?

After circling the World Tree, Yang Yan suddenly sat down, propping up his chin as he fell into contemplation.

If I could refine it, my Life Force would be akin to becoming infinite, wouldn’t it?

If someone were here at this moment and heard Yang Yan’s thoughts, they would definitely jump up in shock.

This is the World Tree!

Having the chance to gain its favor is good enough, yet you want to refine the whole thing.

It’s likely only Yang Yan in this world who would be so audacious.

He acts as he speaks.

Yang Yan is an action-oriented person; without much thought about possible consequences, he immediately sat cross-legged, mobilized all his True Qi, and slowly touched the sturdy trunk of the World Tree.

He intended to directly infuse his True Qi through his hands into the tree, imprinting his mark.

Just as Yang Yan’s hand touched the trunk, an unexpected change occurred.

Boom—

The World Tree began to emit a blinding light, moving automatically without wind, thousands of branches unfolding rapidly.

Yang Yan’s head ached violently, feeling as if thousands of steel needles had pierced into his brain.

"Damn it, here it comes again!"

The intense pain forced Yang Yan to abandon the idea of refinement, clutching his head and crying out in agony.

This feeling only occurred when the seal on Wandering Dragon Star was first broken.

In the haze, Yang Yan sensed an inexplicable surge of memory in his seemingly exploding mind.

The person in the memory had an indistinct face, surrounded only by endless warfare and boundless darkness.

The oppressive atmosphere created a sense of suffocation, making it hard for Yang Yan to breathe.

In just a little more than half an incense stick’s time, cold sweat flowed down Yang Yan’s forehead as he gasped for air.

"This is just a fragment, not a complete World Tree..."

At this point, the World Tree before him vanished, leaving only scattered points of light drifting down.

As the light coalesced, it slowly solidified into form, and a figure appeared before him.

This towering figure exuded an overwhelming presence, like a Demon God emerging from the Nine Netherworld.

"Fortunate one, have you comprehended the way of slaughter?"

The figure slowly began to speak, its voice cold and devoid of emotion.

Yang Yan looked at the figure before him, only feeling his soul impacted by a massive force.

It was as if a giant mountain blocked his path, making breathing difficult.

Yang Yan’s face showed no fear, and his aura rapidly intensified.

At this moment, he was akin to a sharp sword splitting the heavens and the earth, intent on cutting down the mountain before him.

Yet, as Yang Yan’s momentum erupted, the figure in front of him withdrew its presence.

This left Yang Yan feeling as though he’d exerted all his strength only to strike cotton.

"Well done, a tough nut. An ordinary person would have already knelt before me."

The figure wasn’t angered by Yang Yan’s resistance; instead, it showed a smile of appreciation, speaking with exceptional satisfaction.

"You are qualified to receive my legacy."

Having said that, he entirely withdrew his pressure, his demeanor becoming gentle, like the fresh air of spring.

He stroked his beard with a hand, smiling as he looked at Yang Yan, waiting for his answer.

Yang Yan didn’t immediately reply to the figure’s words but stared coldly at him.

Inwardly, Yang Yan cautioned himself against the man who looked almost exactly like him, thinking he would surely throw off all expectations, urging himself to remain wary.
