Chapter 1293: Obtaining the Power of Inheritance

Xu Yang quickly entered the Tiger King's internal world and immediately sensed the fluctuating aura of the Beast Emperor clan's inherited power.

As his spiritual power neared this concentrated inherited power, the intense heat surprised even Xu Yang, prompting an exclamation of wonder.

"I didn't expect such a pure essence of life force to exist on Yingzhou Continent. It seems the Saint Beast Heart is indeed something even the continent's strongest, like Emperor Yunlong, would covet.

It very likely seals some secret left by Yun Wangji, the Creator God of Yingzhou Continent. It might even contain clues to the path to the entrance of Wuyue Heaven.

It seems I must obtain this Saint Beast Heart. However, this mass of inherited power appears to be only part of a complete runic imprint.

Analyzing the current situation, it's highly probable that each of the Ten Kings received a fragment of this inherited power. Only when all these runic fragments are integrated will they form the complete Saint Beast Heart totem.

If that's the case, I'll first extract this power from the Tiger King's body and seal it within my own,

rather than directly trying to break the sealed power.

This way, the Tiger King's life force won't be threatened, and we won't alert the Beast Emperor clan too early. Once we've collected enough inherited power from the Ten Kings' leaders, we'll naturally have the leverage to negotiate with the Beast Emperor clan."

Every detail of the subsequent action plan quickly formed in Xu Yang's mind. Without further hesitation, he followed the spiritual imprint and attempted to make contact with the powerful source of inherited power before him.

By sensing the changes in the aura emanating from the sealed power itself, he aimed to gauge the extreme intensity this power could unleash.

After this attempt, Xu Yang ultimately decided to rely on the immensely powerful primal energy cultivation system within him to handle this difficult problem.

In an instant, Xu Yang unhesitatingly unleashed the state where all nine qi-vortexes within him were simultaneously active. He became enveloped by an endless surge of energy, and the intimidating aura he emitted utterly astonished even his teammates nearby.

Instinctively, they quickly retreated hundreds of meters, leaving the entire vast area of the spacious Tiger King Village headquarters for Xu Yang to operate in.

Everyone understood that in this state, Xu Yang was practically invincible. The Tiger King before him was completely stunned.

It was at this moment that he finally realized there was no comparison between himself and this human. If Xu Yang truly wished to slay the Tiger King, the latter would likely perish before he could even utter a sound.

As Xu Yang, with his nine qi-vortexes activated, slowly approached the Tiger King's body, the latter instinctively began to tremble.

He knew Xu Yang wasn't suppressing him with this power, but merely targeting the sealed inheritance within his body. Even so, the Tiger King was trembling with extreme fear.

Out of consideration for the Tiger King, fearing that his immense aura might cause the other party to collapse, Xu Yang ultimately decided to stop about fifty meters in front of him, refraining from drawing any closer to his body.

This was to prevent his own overwhelmingly powerful primal aura from directly melting the Tiger King completely.

From that position, Xu Yang unhesitatingly unleashed an invisible wave of light from the palm of his left hand.

It directly enveloped the Tiger King's body. Then, under Xu Yang's precise and perfect control, this wave of light bypassed the vital areas of the Tiger King's physical form and directly entered his abdomen.

This was the location of the Beast King clan's inherited power source. An invisible large hand firmly grasped the surface of this ancestral power.

It was at this moment that the Tiger King experienced boundless agony.

Although the process was far more difficult than imagined, Xu Yang's immense strength ultimately preserved the Tiger King's life. This process was akin to having an organ ripped out of one's body while alive; the excruciating, heart-wrenching pain was unavoidable.

However, such intense suffering was well worth it for preserving his life.

Finally, Xu Yang slowly withdrew his ethereal palm print, revealing the golden-glowing inherited power from within the Tiger King's body to everyone present.

"Oh my goodness, is this what the Beast Emperor's inherited power truly looks like? It goes without saying that this power is strong enough to suppress the entire Northern Barrenlands.

If not for Boss personally intervening, it would be difficult for us alone to suppress this inherited power."

Qinglong couldn't help but speak from the heart, marveling at the power of the inheritance while also expressing his profound respect for Xu Yang's unparalleled strength.

"Haha, you overestimate us. If we had tried, the Tiger King would likely have been consumed by this power and perished, and we would have been counter-attacked by the Beast Emperor lineage's inherited power.

Don't forget, the superficial power seal is quite formidable.

Had it not been for our Boss's divine power personally handling it, this power would likely have shattered forcefully the moment it left the Tiger King's body.

In that case, all our actions would have been exposed to the Beast Emperor clan.

The most challenging part wasn't extracting it, but keeping the surface seal of this inherited power intact to avoid alerting them prematurely. That was the most remarkable feat!"

Just as Xu Yang was about to seal this inherited power within himself, Xiao Hua suddenly stepped forward and stopped him.

"Don't forget, this is only a partial amount of the power. If it truly is a runic fragment that holds these secrets, then someday all fragments will need to be integrated.

Later, you'll have to release this energy. If you seal these fragments within your own body, it will significantly hinder you when you act, preventing you from achieving the most perfect effect."

As expected, as soon as Xiao Hua voiced her concerns, she immediately received unanimous support from everyone else in the team, prompting Xu Yang to pause his actions.

"But if I don't do this, and this power is sealed within any of you, I worry your physical bodies won't be able to bear it, which would be even more troublesome."

Xiao Hua smiled and shook her head, "Have you forgotten? Isn't my physical body your best vessel?"
