Chapter 1726 - 1726. Kirk

Noah had almost forgotten about his inheritance after spending millennial in the Immortal Lands. Someone had to find it sooner or later, but he had never fully prepared himself for the arrival of an heir.

"Where is he now?" Noah asked, uncaring that the meeting had yet to end. "I would like to meet him."

"He should be here," Flying Demon revealed while expanding his consciousness. "Found him. He's near the edge of the region. I guess he doesn't like to celebrate."

Flying Demon sent the location to Noah's mind through his consciousness, and the latter promptly shot in the air to identify the cultivator with his own eyes.

A few figures followed Noah. King Elbas, June, and Divine Demon appeared near him and waited for him to move.

"This should be personal," Noah commented while diving toward the edges of the region.

"I'm not going to miss your first meeting with your heir," June replied.

"He must meet the Master of his Master," Divine Demon added.

"I'm curious," King Elbas limited himself to say before the group reached their destination.

A tall cultivator who had a young face, short blonde hair, and azure eyes was cultivating next to a group of hybrids. The latter enjoyed the celebration and releasing cries toward the sky, but the man didn't seem interested in the event.

The cultivator wore a sleeveless ragged robe, and his expression managed to remain cold even during his training. He was only a rank 7 expert in the liquid stage, but his power seemed about to approach the breakthrough.

Four figures suddenly appeared around the cultivator. The event snapped him out of his cultivation and alerted his senses, but the oppressive power released by Noah's group didn't allow him to move.

The attack created shockwaves that tried to spread through the area, but the pressure released by four experts suppressed that power. The punch ended up landing on Noah's c.h.e.s.t, where it didn't cause the slightest damage.

'Almost as strong as a hybrid,' Noah thought before pulling the man from his arm and inspecting the dark mark.

The elephant depicted by the mark seemed alive, but the technique was clearly different from the Body-inscription spell. Noah could sense life coming out of that spot, but he also noticed the dense "Breath" that filled its insides.

"It must be higher energy," King Elbas suddenly said while bending toward the mark. "Definitely earth element. His law probably involves imitating and improving existing features. The requirements for its activation must be quite devilish."

"Do you need to kill the magical beasts to obtain some of their features?" Noah asked while glancing at the scared expert. "I can smell their blood from here."

"Your heir had to be another admirer of the magical beasts," June commented. "I'm starting to think that Heaven and Earth have planned this out."

"I suggest we throw him in a pack of dragons and see how he does," Divine Demon proposed, but his three companions silently chose to ignore him for the rest of the inspection.

The man didn't have the time to inspect Noah's group at the beginning. Their arrival had been too sudden, and he didn't want to risk getting caught by those unknown existences.

However, his consciousness ended up inspecting Noah and the others after they captured him. A mixture of astonishment and fear filled his mind when he realized that the four figures belonged to rank 8 experts.

Noah sensed the man's gaze and decided to place a finger on his forehead. His influence began to envelop the expert's mental sphere, but it didn't pierce it. He only wanted to make part of those memories resonate with his ambition.

Part of the man's mental sea began to shine with a dark light before surging upward and flowing out of the mental sphere. Those memories entered Noah's finger and made him aware of the events that happened inside his inheritance.

Noah didn't leave something that could instantly make him aware of the expert's life in his inheritance. Yet, he had filled the structure with his will and emotions. Part of them had inevitably flowed inside the man.

Vague images entered Noah's mind. He could see a slightly younger version of the cultivator inside the darkness of his inheritance. The man fought barehanded to defeat the creatures protecting the structure, and a name eventually became clear among his thoughts.

"Kirk, no last name or title," Noah announced. "He is definitely my heir."

Noah removed his finger from the expert's forehead and let go of his arm. Kirk could straighten his position and kowtow toward his Master, and the other three experts ended up laughing at that scene.

Kirk immediately raised his head and inspected the experts. He didn't know why they were laughing. Kowtowing was only proper in front of his Master.

"The first rule of my organization forbids kneeling," Noah explained. "I'll let it go this time. On your feet now."

Kirk quickly straightened his position again, and King Elbas began to walk around him. His curiosity shot faint flares of mental energy from time to time that seeped inside the expert and studied his body. He appeared really interested in the matter.

"He is an Elbas," King Elbas eventually explained. "I can sense that he belongs to my bloodline, but his connection with me is basically non-existent. His generation is too distant from me."

"Luckily," Divine Demon commented, but everyone ignored him again.

"I'm no Elbas!" Kirk spoke for the first time. "I know their kind. They are arrogant incompetents. I take pride in those that I have killed throughout the years."

"He is the reason why the Elbas bloodline exists," June revealed while pointing toward King Elbas. "He is the Patriarch and main source of power of that blood."

Kirk's expression froze when he heard that. His eyes tried to find King Elbas, but the latter had completely disregarded his words and had resumed his inspection.

"Don't worry," Noah winked toward Kirk. "I've also killed many of them. Actually, the Elbas family has continued to live because they were the only humans left in the world. You couldn't avoid that blood."

Kirk nodded before performing a bow to thank Noah for those words.

"He is different from you," June said when she noticed that polite gesture.

"He is lying," Noah laughed. "He is probably hoping to get something if he pleases me."

Kirk's expression froze again. Noah had seen right through him, but he didn't appear angry about the matter.

"He is definitely like you then," June commented. "What's the nature of your law anyway? I hope you can't just make yourself slightly stronger."

Kirk glanced toward Noah, and the latter nodded. The man then lowered the upper part of his robe and revealed his burly body filled with scars.

Dark marks that featured many magical beasts slowly materialized on his skin. Kirk's power increased as those drawings appeared, and Noah couldn't help but sense multiple traces of life coming for him.

"I absorb other living beings to take their best features," Kirk revealed. "The process to obtain that power is long, but I wouldn't trade my law for anything else. I know that my existence has the strongest ability."
