Lingbao Heavenly Venerate, accepting a karmic debt?

Eastern Domain.

After the news of Su Chen's slaying of the Four Great Ancient Sages spread, the entire Eastern Domain was in an uproar.

"Was the Heavenly Cry that day because of Young Master Su? Wasn't he only at the Ancient Sage Realm? How could he have killed Four Great Ancient Sages Powerhouses?"

"Young Master Su is not Ancient Saint at all; he is Supreme Sage experts."

"My goodness! I never imagined that there would be such a powerful figure in our Eastern Domain. I heard that these four Ancient Saints were all powerful figures from the Northern Region Southern Domain. They wanted to conquer the Eastern Domain, but unfortunately, they were all killed by Young Master Su in the end."

"..."

Discussions continued to rise throughout the Eastern Domain, with many people displaying expressions of admiration when speaking of Su Chen.

In an instant.

The Su Family's cohesion and control over the Eastern Domain have reached an unparalleled level.

No force in the Eastern Domain dared to oppose the Su Family, not even with the slightest underhanded intentions.

Summit of Wangyun Mountain.

Su Chen walked through the Mountain Forest, accompanied by two dogs.

One head of fur is snow-white with intelligent eyes, while the other has a faint green tinge to its fur.

The former is Bai Xiao, and the latter is Qingshi.

The proud Dragon Clan would normally disdain transforming into dogs, but if it came to serving Su Chen as his dog, they seemed quite willing to accept it.

Qingshi has benefited greatly from being by Su Chen's side during this time, and his Bloodline has completely transformed into that of the Dragon Clan. He should also be the only Pure-Blood Dragon Clan in the Xuantian Realm.

Su Chen strolled leisurely through the Mountain Forest, something he did often. Whenever he had free time, he would come here for a walk.

After strolling around the mountaintop, Su Chen went to the Nine Cloud Daoist Temple to pay his respects to the Shangqing Lingbao Heavenly Venerate.

Inside the Daoist temple.

True Person Ziyang looked at Su Chen with a somewhat solemn expression. He always felt that Su Chen knew the background of their Nine Cloud Daoist Temple.

Every time Su Chen prayed, his expression was very devout.

How could Su Chen, a powerful figure like himself, treat an unknown person with such an attitude?

That's strange!

Su Chen lit the incense, bowed again, and then stepped back.

Just as he was about to leave Nine Cloud Daoist Temple, suddenly everything went black, and everything in front of him vanished without a trace.

At this moment, Su Chen's thoughts seemed to vanish.

But only for a moment, and he returned to normal.

Su Chen felt drenched in sweat, as if he were completely exhausted. His eyes were filled with a hint of seriousness. For a moment just now, he had a feeling that he was going to die.

This was the first time he had felt this way since he Transmigration to this world.

What just happened?

Su Chen suddenly turned his head to look at the portrait, but what he saw was not the Nine Cloud Daoist Temple, but a calm and still body of water.

For a moment, Su Chen looked around. The Nine Cloud Daoist Temple had long since disappeared, and he was now standing on the water.

Looking down, you can even see a clear reflection, just like a perfectly clear mirror.

Just then, Su Chen saw a huge lotus flower reflected in the water, and he could vaguely see a Young Daoist on it. He held Ruyi, and Four Treasured Swords floated beside him, emanating an extremely terrifying aura.

This is!!

He suddenly looked up, but there were no lotus flowers in the sky at all.

Su Chen's face showed undisguised shock. What on earth had happened?

In a daze, his gaze returned to the Nine Cloud Daoist Temple once again, as if everything just now was merely a mirage.

That person just now...

Su Chen couldn't help but swallow hard, trying to calm his excited emotions.

The person I just saw was the legendary Highest Clarity?

Although it was only for a moment, Su Chen felt a chill run down his spine.

Even if he were only at the Supreme Sage level when he was at full power, he could still be easily defeated by a Great Emperor because his Primordial Immortal Body greatly amplifies his combat power.

But beneath that silhouette, all he felt was despair; he didn't even have the slightest thought of fighting.

Absolutely terrifying!

True Person Ziyang suddenly stood up. He had just sensed a faint Karma fluctuation from Su Chen, a fluctuation that was exactly the same as the fluctuation in the Inheritance Scroll of their Nine Cloud Daoist Temple.

Although I don't know the details, something definitely happened to Su Chen in that brief moment.

Su Chen took a deep breath, walked towards the portrait again, and bowed.

Just as he stood up, a beam of light suddenly shot out from the portrait and instantly landed on the back of Su Chen's hand.

The spiritual light coalesced into four different colored patterns, each pattern resembling a small, uniquely shaped sword.

"This is..."

True Person Ziyang could no longer sit still; his expression was one of horror.

The Inheritance Scroll at Nine Cloud Daoist Temple has almost never experienced anything like this before, throughout history. Does this Painting actually possess other abilities?

He originally thought it was only for visualization and had no other purpose, but what happened today completely shattered his understanding.

Su Chen was also stunned. He looked at the pattern on the back of his hand and felt extremely solemn.

Although he didn't know what had happened, he could clearly feel that the back of his hand contained an incredibly terrifying energy that even made him feel a chill, and that he could use it at will.

He looked up at the portrait.

Why!?

This power isn't meant to kill him, and he can control it at will, so does that mean it's helping him?

But why?

Su Chen was very confused as to why Lingbao Heavenly Venerate would help him.

Did he discover that he was Transmigration?

Countless questions arose in his mind.

Moreover, he could clearly feel this power, and he could discard it at any time, which made Su Chen even more puzzled.

Give him a terrifying power; he can choose to use it or discard it.

Su Chen suddenly thought of the Taoism Karma. If he chose to use it, would he owe Lingbao Heavenly Venerate a Karma that he would have to repay in the future?

It's fine if you don't use it.

But why would a terrifyingly powerful figure like Lingbao Heavenly Venerate need the help of a nobody like him?

Su Chen pondered the matter but came to no conclusion, and he did not choose to abandon this power.

His current means of survival are indeed quite scarce; apart from Xu Xiaoque, he has none. If he could acquire another trump Trump Cards for survival, it would only benefit him and not harm him.

Moreover, as long as it is not used, there will be no karmic debt to Lingbao Heavenly Venerate Karma.

When the time comes to use it, it will definitely be a matter of Life and Death and death. It's better to incur Karma than to die.

If this force intended to kill him, it wouldn't matter, because Su Chen had another Trump Cards to save his life.

Rebirth Card!

It will be used automatically after death.

Su Chen believed that the system was above all else, and even if Lingbao Heavenly Venerate killed him, he would definitely be resurrected.

He drew this Rebirth Card more than a hundred years ago; it was used to save his life when there was no other way out.

Just then, True Person Ziyang suddenly spoke:

"Young Master Su, are you aware of the lineage of my Nine Cloud Daoist Temple?"

He had been curious before, but never asked. However, after seeing what happened today, he finally couldn't hold back any longer.

Su Chen chuckled softly, then said calmly:

"Master, whether you know it or not makes no difference to you. Everything is predestined. Didn't you say before that you could never grasp the artistic conception in the painting?"

"If you can understand it someday, you might just know it naturally."

True Person Ziyang was slightly taken aback, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

He had never thought about this before, but after Su Chen reminded him, he suddenly realized something.

Is it because he hasn't grasped the essence of the teachings, and therefore hasn't fully become his disciple?

It seems to be the only possibility.
