Chapter 137 Accepting the inheritance
Although Bauhinia Island is said to be an island, it is actually a continental celestial body with a diameter of over one million kilometers. There are no colorful auroras circulating above the island.

Under the guidance of the elder of the Feicang tribe, Shen Mu flew over the island. He saw palaces scattered all over the island, which included various architectural styles in the universe and were magnificent and grand.

At the same time, Shen Mu could also sense that in these various buildings, there were some extremely powerful auras, and the weakest ones were almost at the peak of the king level.

And above the sky of Bauhinia Island, there were circles of light and shadow ripples that were constantly spreading.

When these light and shadow ripples spread to a limit, they will be annihilated, and then new light and shadow circles will be born and spread from the center.

Birth and annihilation, the whole process repeats itself over and over again, containing a mysterious charm.

Those circles were clearly formed by the interweaving of endless threads of laws and secret patterns. With their birth and annihilation, they revealed the mysteries of the ten basic laws and the ways of the eight beast gods.

Shen Mu looked at the circles of light and shadow ripples. This was the same as the manifestation of the laws in the Chaos City of the original universe of the human race.

It’s just that the laws here are more complete and perfect. Even if you don’t accept the inheritance, as long as you stay on this Amethyst Island, the speed of comprehending the way of the Beast God will be greatly improved.

"That is the manifestation of the laws governing the operation of the universe. It is the universe's gift to our Ancestral Divine Religion. Our Ancestral Divine Religion is the spokesperson for the universe's will..."

The elder of the Fei Cang clan proudly boasted about how powerful his Ancestral God Religion was, saying it was the number one force in the universe. He also introduced to Shen Mu the things that the inheritor needed to pay attention to.

Shen Mu didn't say much, just listened with a smile.

As the number one force in the universe, the Ancestral God Cult is indeed powerful, but that’s all.

The first generation of beast gods of the Zushen Religion, namely the eight natural beast gods, were also hunted down.

After all, it is because the Natural Beast God is a treasure, and with such huge interests at stake, even the Ancestral God Cult cannot protect this Natural Beast God.

"I will take you to meet the island owner first, and then you can build a palace on Bauhinia Island. The palace of the inheritor is an absolutely private domain. Unless the owner agrees, no one can enter at will."

After finishing speaking, the elder of the Fei Cang tribe continued to take Shen Mu and fly towards the highest mountain in the center of the island.

On top of the mountains there is a palace covering an area of ​​only a few thousand square kilometers. There are many carvings on the palace, mainly eight of them, showing the images of eight innate beast gods.

"The island master of Bauhinia Island is held by eight guardian beast gods in turn. Every new inheritor needs to come and pay homage to them in order to be granted authority."

The Fei Cang clan elder sent Shen Mu to the palace gate, and then said: "I have explained everything I should tell you. Next, you can go directly to the island master's palace to pay your respects."

Shen Mu responded politely: "Thank you, Your Excellency."

The Fei Cang clan elder nodded slightly, and then disappeared on the spot. Then Shen Mu turned around and looked at the towering palace, and stepped into it.

……

The island owner's palace is divided into the front hall, the atrium and the final main hall. You need to go to the main hall to meet the island owner.

A moment later, before Shen Mu arrived at the main hall, he saw a blue-haired man in a mysterious black robe sitting cross-legged in meditation at the entrance of the hall.

This is a human man with sky-blue secret patterns flowing on his face and the complete fluctuations of space laws surging around his body. He is obviously a space master.

"Inheritor!"

When the blue-haired man saw the inheritor of the human race appear, a friendly smile appeared on his face.

"Hello, senior." Shen Mu bowed slightly.

The blue-haired venerable smiled and nodded: "I am one of the soul servants under the island master, responsible for guarding the palace here. I have sent the message to the island master, you just need to wait for the island master's summons."

Every soul servant will not be ashamed of this, because after becoming a soul slave, they will respect their master from the bottom of their hearts, be proud of it, and even publicize it.

However, the only thing that Shen Mu was curious about was how the Ancestral God Cult dared to enslave the human race's cosmic masters?
Logically speaking, even for the human race and top forces like the Hong Alliance, the Universe Master is a high-end combat force and will be exposed to many high-level secrets.

If you kill a cosmic master of the human race, it will not necessarily attract the pursuit of the Lord of the Universe.

But if you want to enslave the Lord of the Universe, it will inevitably attract the personal pursuit of the Lord of the Universe. Every Lord of the Universe-level being has mastered too many core secrets.

Generally speaking, in the entire primitive universe, only the Zerg, Mechanical and Demon races would show no mercy to the strong ones of the human race.

As if sensing Shen Mu's doubts, the blue-haired venerable smiled and explained, "I was not a cosmic venerable back then. I became the master's slave and was promoted to a cosmic venerable with the help of the master."

When Shen Mu heard this, a look of realization appeared on his face.

It seems that the talent of this blue-haired master is not low, otherwise even if the Lord of the Universe cultivates him at all costs, he will not be able to become the Master of the Universe.

Because soul enslavement will cause irreversible damage to will and understanding, potential and talent will be greatly reduced.

Otherwise, the major ethnic groups would not worry about the souls of their younger geniuses being controlled by outsiders, and would control them themselves first.

……

Nine days later.

"come in."

An extremely fierce and domineering aura surged and spread from the palace, instantly startling Shen Mu, who was trying to deduce a secret technique with his eyes closed.

Then, a high-pitched voice that penetrated the soul resounded throughout the island owner's palace.

The blue-haired venerable at the side had a look of surprise on his face: "You are lucky, you only waited for nine days. I have seen people who were unlucky and even waited for several years."

During this period of communication with this blue-haired venerable, Shen Mu gained a certain understanding of seeking an audience with the Beast God.

When seeking to see the guardian beast god, if the other party is busy, it may take up to ten years to get there.

If the other party does not appear in time within ten years, we will ask other beast gods to help deal with it.

As soon as Shen Mu stepped into the main hall, he felt that the surrounding heaven and earth had changed. The whole world turned into an endless fire domain, and the space was filled with endless divine flames.

On the tall throne in front, there was a strange creature that looked like a dragon but had wings. It was somewhat similar to the Yinglong in the earth's legend.

This strange life form is the controller of this space and time. It has fully mastered the law of fire and space fusion, and has inherited the position of Beast God, the Fire Beast God.

"Boundary Lord?"

The Fire Beast God's gaze fell on Shen Mu, and a look of surprise emerged: "After I inherited the honorable position of the Fire Beast God, you are still the first Realm Lord-level Beast God inheritor I have ever seen."

In an instant, Shen Mu suddenly felt that the space and time around him was instantly shrouded by some kind of force. The gaze of the Fire Beast God seemed to turn into a pair of suns, directly seeing through Shen Mu's entire body.

"The Flame God Clan? You must have taken over the body of the Flame God Clan. Moreover, you can fuse a hundred drops of the Beast God's blood at the realm master level. You are pretty good."

"Human, from this moment on, you are the inheritor of the Beast God of Bauhinia Island."

A high-pitched voice came from the Fire and Sky Beast God: "First, I will grant you access to the virtual network 'Glory World'."

Wow!
As soon as he finished speaking, an object similar to an intelligent optical computer appeared out of thin air and flew directly towards Shen Mu.

The Fire and Sky Beast God continued, "The Glory World is an important virtual world within my Ancestral God Religion, similar to the virtual universe of your human world."

"Next, I will grant you the authority to enter the inheritance land, treasure land, and secret land."

The Fire and Sky Beast God continued, “The three water curtains in front of the palace are the transmission channels leading to these three areas respectively.”

"The inheritance land is where the inheritor receives the inheritance of the beast god and tests his understanding of the law." "The treasure land is where the treasures left behind by the super powerful people of the Zushen Sect are hidden. If there is an inheritor who can meet the requirements of the super being who left the treasure, he can take out the treasure."

"As for the last secret place, it is filled with countless dangers and opportunities. It depends on your own luck."

"Human inheritor, you can first build your own residence on Bauhinia Island, and then go to the inheritance land to receive the inheritance!"

……

Bauhinia Island.

After leaving the island owner's palace, Shen Mu randomly found a beautiful place surrounded by mountains and water and began to build his residence.

"rise!"

As Shen Mu's voice fell, a garden with blue bricks, black tiles and horse-head walls appeared out of thin air. It had typical Anhui architectural features and was completely integrated with the surrounding natural scenery.

"The place is built. Next, let's go see the place where the Ancestral God Religion is passed down."

Shen Mu turned around and went to the palace of the island master of Bauhinia Island again. There was a huge platform square here, which was a cross-section of a mountain that was completely cut off.

There are three fountains on the square. The spring water was born out of thin air and gushes endlessly. However, there is no trace of moisture on the ground of the square, and it looks beautiful.

Wow!
Shen Mu stepped into the fountain on the left, and the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.

A terrifying force permeated the entire secret world. It was an incomparably powerful soul pressure, and the pressure alone was enough to obliterate the imprint of the divine body and soul below the king level.

"Is this the place of inheritance?"

Shen Mu looked around clearly. It was a strange void, surrounded by endless black fog.

In the void, there was a meteorite floating, on which sat a strong man with a wolf head and a human body. He was wearing purple armor and exuded an extremely aggressive aura.

"Greetings, Venerable Jiufeng." Shen Mu bowed.

Venerable Jiufeng is one of the seven star overlords of the human race in the Hong Alliance. He has received the complete inheritance of the God General and became an outer member of the Ancestral God Religion as a "candidate God General".

In terms of strength, the difference between this Jiufeng Venerable and his own Baifeng Venerable was not much. But if he succeeded in inheriting the position of God General in the future, he would become the real top overlord of the universe.

The positions of honor in the Ancestral God Sect are divided into three levels: the eight beast gods, the seventy-two divine generals, and the three thousand divine envoys.

As long as one can inherit the honorable position, one will gain the favor of the will of the universe and his combat power will be greatly enhanced within the scope of the original universe.

There are restrictions on the inheritors of the seventy-two divine generals and three thousand divine messengers.

Once one becomes a candidate for a divine general or divine messenger, if he or she cannot inherit the honorable position, he or she will be trapped forever in the realm of the cosmic sage or immortality.

The inheritors of the Beast God do not have such restrictions. As long as they do not inherit the position of the Beast God, there are no restrictions. Moreover, after the way of the Beast God is perfected, they can also join the outer circle of the Ancestral God Religion as the Protector of the Religion and the Honored Lord.

Of course, there are also people who claim that there is no hope of breaking through to a higher level, so they choose to inherit the honorable position and directly become the strongest among the masters of the universe.

Every beast god in power in the original universe is comparable to the level of a chaos city lord.

“Hahaha, there’s no need to be polite, King Silver Sand. I’ve long wanted to get to know you, the most brutal immortal in the original universe.”

Venerable Jiufeng was obviously aware of Shen Mu's title as King Silver Sand.

He was waiting here under the order of the Lord of Chaos City, to take care of the Silver Sand King while he was training in the Ancestral God Sect.

After exchanging pleasantries, the Venerable Jiufeng said directly: "King Yinsha, this is your first time entering the inheritance land, so you may not know much about it."

"Every time you enter the inheritance land, I will first check your progress in understanding the laws."

"The Beast God inheritance is divided into seven levels. If you understand the first level, then when you enter the inheritance site, you can directly comprehend the second level. If you understand the second level, you will receive the third level, and so on."

Venerable Jiufeng said this, and looked at Shen Mu with some curiosity: "Silver Sand King, what level are you at?"

"I have fully comprehended the third level, but I have not yet begun to comprehend the fourth level."

Venerable Jiufeng nodded slightly: "Not bad, not bad, you are one of the best inheritors of the immortal spirit realm."

There are hundreds of inheritors of the Beast God in the human race. Except for a few cosmic masters, most of the others are only at the third level.

There are only a handful of people who can reach the fourth level of the Way of the Beast God.

"Okay, without further ado, you should accept the inheritance first. Just enter the surrounding black fog."

"Okay." Shen Mu responded with a smile, randomly chose a direction, and flew directly into the black fog.

moment!

boom!
An incredible force acted on his whole body. Even if Shen Mu's will reached the limit of the overlord of the universe, he was still unable to resist this mysterious force.

As if his body was out of control, he stood in mid-air and stretched out his right hand slightly.

"Swish!" A world force emerged from Shen Mu's fingertips and quickly condensed into a secret pattern of laws.

I saw secret patterns of laws emerging, and the entire law of the fusion of water and space, starting from the most basic artistic conception, was demonstrated uncontrollably by Shen Mu himself.

Improve step by step from the most basic Beast God state of mind, and finally display all of the Beast God's insights.

As time passed, more and more secret patterns of laws spread out from Shen Mu's fingertips, and threads of secret patterns of laws entwined around them, vaguely interweaving into the outline of a strange beast god.

After a moment, when Shen Mu had fully exerted all his understanding of the water and air fusion laws, the mysterious power instantly left Shen Mu's body.

"This method of checking perception is really overbearing." Shen Mu complained as he felt the Yanshen clan clone returning to control.

Boom!

At this moment, that irresistible mysterious force suddenly emerged again.

"The fourth level!"

The mysterious figure echoed in Shen Mu's sea of ​​consciousness. It was not some universal language, nor was it any language at all, but any intelligent creature could understand the information contained in it.

The mysterious voice kept echoing in his mind, making him completely immersed in a strange fantasy.

In the illusion, it was as if a super being directly instilled insights into Shen Mu, and the mystery of the fourth level of the Water and Sky Beast God appeared out of thin air in Shen Mu's mind.

As long as Shen Mu thoroughly understands and comprehends these mysteries, he can master the fourth level of the Way of the Beast God. This way of inheritance is much more efficient than comprehending the Chaos Monument.

In such a special state, Shen Mu's mind was completely immersed in endless mysteries, the rest of his body fell into deep sleep at this moment, and all his will was perfectly concentrated.

I don’t know how long it has been...

The mysterious power dissipated again, and Shen Mu's consciousness returned to reality.

Then the mysterious black fog around him suddenly produced a repulsive force and directly spit out Shen Mu.
