Tang Rao sat on the lotus seedpod, and a mystical force instantly enveloped him.

Ancient images filled his mind.

Geng Yu galloped across the Ancient Battlefield.

As an Immortal Emperor wielded a Fish Bone Sword, wherever the sword tip reached, there was a storm of blood and gore.

In the division of benefits of the Ancient Battlefield, some disagreed, and with a thought, Geng Yu shredded that person to pieces.

The reputation of Geng Yu was formed by each sword swing and every step taken.

The accumulation of such scenes provoked a qualitative change.

Tang Rao could sense that his spiritual power had reached the realm of the ninth tier Immortal Monarch.

Yet, his own strength wasn't as easy to enhance as imagined.

...

For a full three days, Tang Rao finally received the complete inheritance of Geng Yu.

"Now you are me, I am you. Tang Rao, you are the continuation of my life. Remember not to bully the weak or do things devoid of virtue."

When Geng Yu finished speaking, the Image Stone shattered instantly, and his visage abruptly disappeared within it.

"But... don't go yet, I haven't asked if you know where Chen Ajiu is."

Tang Rao wanted to retain Geng Yu's Divine Sense, but the predestined heavenly matters left him powerless.

The ship naturally straightens when it reaches the bridge. Today marks the day to leave the Immortal Emperor's Mausoleum.

Tang Rao returned by the same path. At some point, the Stone Gate opened, and he stepped out. Xiao Huo Shen ran to his feet, seeking favor.

"Tang Rao, Tang Rao, you must have obtained plenty of good things, right? Share a bit with me, will you?"

Tang Rao had already decided to ignore Xiao Huo Shen this time.

He approached the Mammoth: "It's been tough on Lord Mammoth all these millennia."

Tang Rao sincerely expressed.

Having received Geng Yu's inheritance, he better appreciated the difficulty of silent guardianship.

Feeling the aura of Immortal Emperor Geng Yu on Tang Rao, the Mammoth bowed: "It wasn't hard, it's what this old woman should do."

"By the way, this is Armor made from the Armor Plate of Lord Dragon Fish during its lifetime. Wearing it, even those at the Immortal Emperor level can't do anything to you."

The Mammoth didn't forget such an important detail.

He received the Armor with both hands, glanced back at the salted fish's corpse, but didn't bury it, as it was more suited to remain in the water, in life or death.

"It's all my duty."

The great Mammoth sighed in relief, grateful he didn't do anything to Tang Rao; otherwise, the one the Immortal Emperor awaited for years would have been ruined by him.

The great Mammoth led the way with three small Mammoths, while Tang Rao was held onto by Xiao Huo Shen as he left.

"Tang Rao, didn't Geng Yu the Immortal Emperor have a little ear spoon thing? You got it too, right? Can you give it to me?"

"Tang Rao, I promise I won't flirt with Sheng Xuan anymore. Can you give me a chance?"

Tang Rao...

"Shut up, I won't give you anything. You'd better give up!"

Tang Rao didn't even glance at Xiao Huo Shen.

"But I've been in the Mausoleum for years, even if I don't have achievements, I've put in effort. You can't leave me empty-handed after guarding the Mausoleum for so long, can you?"

As they exited the cave, Xiao Huo Shen was still relentless.

Tang Rao, somewhat irritated by the noise, took out an ear spoon from among the items given by the Immortal Emperor and asked, "Is this what you want?"

The handle of the ear spoon seemed to have little practical use.

Tang Rao couldn't see why it was valuable, yet Xiao Huo Shen had always wanted it for a reason.

"Yes, yes, just that. Could you give it to me, please?"

Xiao Huo Shen wanted to grab it, but Tang Rao didn't let him succeed.

"Wanting this isn't impossible, but you need to tell me what it is before I'll give it to you."

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Xiao Huo Shen pouted, knowing he wasn't a match for Tang Rao, and shyly said, "I heard from others long ago that this ear spoon is the token of affection the Immortal Emperor gifted to his beloved. Whoever possesses it can marry a beautiful Dao partner. I... just wanted to try it."

Xiao Huo Shen answered honestly.

There was indeed such a saying many years ago; Tang Rao might not believe it, but he couldn't do much.

Just an ear spoon?

Can one truly marry a beautiful Dao partner just with an ear spoon? Are the people of the Land of Immortals really so pragmatic, who'd marry a lump of fire just for an ear spoon?

Embracing a testing attitude, Tang Rao handed the ear spoon to Xiao Huo Shen: "I want to see if a little kid like you can find a Dao partner."

If you can find a Dao partner this way, I, Tang Rao, will chop off my head for you to sit on as a stool.

Xiao Huo Shen received the ear spoon as if it were a treasure.

Tang Rao didn't care.

The great Mammoth admired Tang Rao's generosity, giving a thumbs-up.

"The Immortal Emperor's Treasure was given away at a word. Your heroic spirit makes me think more highly of you."

The great Mammoth's words were said and done; Tang Rao, in hindsight, noticed Xiao Huo Shen's suspicious expression, but didn't ponder long.

"Thank you for your care these past few days. I think I should return now. Until we meet again."

Tang Rao looked at the big elephant and three little elephants, feeling reluctant yet knowing he must eventually say goodbye.

"Tang Rao, do you want me to go out with you?"

Xiao Huo Shen approached Tang Rao and asked.

Truthfully, he yearned for the outside world.

"Of course, go into the portable palace and don't come out randomly. Otherwise, I won't care about your life or death."

Xiao Huo Shen nodded and disappeared instantly.

Per the requirements of Ten Thousand Buddha Temple agreed upon before coming, anyone not belonging to the Immortal Emperor's Mausoleum would be teleported out.

Tang Rao and company were at the time limit; if they didn't leave, they'd never get out.

Li Shengxuan was teleported to a corner of the fourth layer, still unseen.

Going out alone would undoubtedly mean courting death.

Parting ways with the Mammoth, Tang Rao wandered on the fourth layer.

With the Immortal Emperor's inheritance and Geng Yu's aura, even if demons were rampant, they dared not act recklessly.

"Sheng Xuan, Li Shengxuan."

As Tang Rao walked, he took out the little bee from his Space Ring, inserted the battery, and began calling out.

This thing's transmission effect was excellent; you could hear it clearly from afar.

Leaving the isolate region of the great Mammoth, Tang Rao quickly found a group of people.

Li Shengxuan was among them.

Seeing Tang Rao appear, she rushed to his side, her eyes brimming with golden beans.

"Benefactor, I thought I'd never see you again. I knew you wouldn't disappear so easily."

Li Shengxuan even pinched Tang Rao's face a couple of times to ensure he wasn't missing any parts.

"Your husband wields immense skills, not so easily troubled."

Tang Rao wiped the golden beans off Li Shengxuan's face and looked at the other injured men.

"Why do you all look like this? Did you find any adventures in the past few days?"

The men were all charred, except for Xiao Yun, whom Li Shengxuan protected from the tribulation of being struck by lightning.

"Don't mention it. We don't know what happened, Heaven struck us with lightning for three days in a row, and we're all battered and burnt."
