Chapter 625: Chapter 625 - Three Years

When Bai An was young, he had spent all of his family's wealth to save those ordinary mortals and small cultivator clans. It wasn't just out of kindness, as others had thought.

Perhaps to some extent, it was true that Bai An had a kind heart, but it wasn't enough to make him do this. What really made him do this was the dangerous situation around him.

During the beast riot, the Bai Family and Bai An's father, died in battle. With the death of the last cultivator of the Bai Family, the Bai Family was doomed to decline and gradually weakened.

If it were an ordinary clan, the weakening would not be too much loss. What was fatal to the Bai Family was that it controlled a large wealth.

Their family business was abundant, but only a ten-year-old child remained in the entire family.

Under such circumstances, this family business was not just a rich fortune. It was also a disaster. This was also the reason why Bai An did this. Because if he didn't do this, the situation would worsen, forcing him to do this step by step.

The cultivators in the mountain city were not all kind. They couldn't help but be moved by this piece of fat meat.

It would be better to take the initiative instead of letting the family business be seized by those people and leaving him with nothing.

Therefore, he scattered his family wealth. On the one hand, he took the initiative to get rid of his disaster. On the other hand, he bought himself a good reputation, which gave him a lot of sympathy points.

This sympathy point was not very heavy, but there were still relatively kinder cultivators in this mountain city. Not to mention that Bai An's father was also a great cultivator when he was alive, and he had many so-called good friends.

For these good friends that Bai An's father had made before he died, it might not be possible for them to do anything for Bai An or even take the initiative to help the Bai family.

But they would be willing to help if they didn't need to expend much effort and just opened their mouths to give some guidance.

In addition, the Bai Family's wealth had already been voluntarily dispersed by Bai An. Under such circumstances, those who harbored malicious intentions gradually dispelled their thoughts.

On the other hand, Bai An took the initiative to distribute his wealth. He transferred some important properties and placed them in his family's secret treasury during this process.

These things supported Bai An's future cultivation, preventing him from pulling his crotch in this area.

However, just distributing wealth wasn't enough. Although floating wealth was important for a large cultivator family, what was truly valuable was the various books passed down in the family.

However, considering that Bai An was only ten years old when his father died, whether he would know about the Bai clan's inheritance at this age was unknown.

Therefore, in the beginning, many people secretly watched Bai An's every move, trying to find clues from it.

Bai An's strategy for this was very simple. In the outside world, he never revealed his cultivation. The only thing he did daily was only to practice the Body Tempering Fist Technique.

Moreover, this practice lasted for a whole five years. Practicing the Body Tempering Fist Technique for five years... anyone with other legacies wouldn't do this, right?

Therefore, after observing Bai An's actions, many people's original thoughts were dispelled.

The most commonly accepted theory in the current mountain city was that the Bai Family's inheritance had been cut off. When Bai An's father had fallen outside, he most likely did not have the time to leave his inheritance behind and pass it to Bai An.

This was a very normal thing. After all, Bai An was only ten years old back then. How could a normal person hand over such an important inheritance to a child? Weren't they afraid of an accident?

However, no one knew that all of this was just Bai An's disguise. He had hidden it from them.

In addition, during these few years, Bai An had been looking for a master everywhere. He had acted as if he lacked an inheritance, hoping to become someone else's disciple. This made people believe this statement.

With such an approach, coupled with the fact that he was well-known and well-mannered, not many people were hostile towards him in this mountain city.

Perhaps there were still secretly suspicious people, just like the burly man surnamed Liu. However, they didn't dare to force their way in because of the Bai family and Bai An's reputation in the mountain city.

After all, it was easy to force their way in, but there were no guarantees of profits. Otherwise, if someone found an excuse and used it as an excuse to attack them, it wouldn't be a good thing.

Of course, some people wanted to break in if one were to speak seriously. However, it was unlikely that those people would succeed. Bai An wasn't as kind as he looked.

Chen Heng stood quietly on the spot. He looked forward and watched Bai An's figure. The smile on his face didn't change as this thought flashed through his mind.

"Speaking of which... it has been 500 years?"

Feeling the passage of time, Chen Heng silently sighed in his heart. Before this, he had entered the world from the inner void. To avoid the repulsion of the world energy, he had simply entered a deep sleep.

However, he had never thought that this sleep would last for five hundred years. From its looks, as he transformed into an ancient sword, some aspects of him had also been affected.

"I'll have to pay more attention in the future..."

This thought flashed through Chen Heng's mind on the spot, but he didn't pay too much attention to it.

The time flow between this world and the World of Gods was very different. It wouldn't be a problem if it only took a little time. However, although five hundred years was nothing to Chen Heng, it was probably not the case for others.

A cultivator at the Shattering Core Stage could only live for less than a thousand years in this world. Only a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage could live for two to three thousand years.

Now that five hundred years had passed, not many of the people he had met before were still alive. However, he did not know if Xiao Han was still alive.

This thought flashed through Chen Heng's mind. At this moment, he was somewhat uncertain.

Theoretically speaking, the Xiao Han should still be alive. After all, when Chen Heng left his side, he was already in the Nascent Soul Stage. His lifespan was long, and he would not die of old age within five hundred years.

However, based on the other party's condition, it was not certain. After all, there were many ways to die in this world other than dying off in old age.

After thinking carefully, Chen Heng finally shook his head. No matter what, up until now, he no longer had much to do with Xiao Han. Whether the other party was good or bad, it was up to him.

Rather than caring about the other party, it was better to pay attention to the young man in front of him. At least compared to Xiao Han, Chen Heng felt that the young man in front of him had greater potential and would be more outstanding in all aspects.

Under Chen Heng's gaze, Bai An had again come to the outside world. Walking out of the training ground, he put on his usual warm smile. Then, he waved his fists and legs around and continued to practice the Body Tempering Fist Technique.

From its looks, he was even very serious in his fight. He had no intention of slacking off at all. His performance made the people who looked around shake their heads, feeling bored.

Many people shook their heads and sighed. "The Bai family, whose name shook mountain city, has declined..."

Bai An's expression did not change when he heard the ridicule from the people around him. He still had that smile on his face, as if he had not heard anything. He was very calm.

However, Chen Heng, familiar with Bai An, knew that Bai An's emotions were fluctuating. Although he had well-controlled him, it was still very obvious in Chen Heng's eyes.

"He's still a child after all."

Feeling the emotional fluctuations in Bai An's heart, Chen Heng smiled. Then, he closed his eyes silently and continued to sink into the state of enlightenment.

If nothing unexpected happened, Bai An would not have encountered any problems at this moment. Chen Heng did not necessarily appear to interfere in anything.

Just like that, the time that followed slowly passed. Unknowingly, another three years had passed. Three years seemed short, but it was enough for many things to happen.

In this mountain city, the situation had changed greatly during these three years.

In the dark, a young man known as the Divine Sword suddenly appeared at some point in time. He was challenged all around the mountain city to practice his skills.

Divine Sword challenged all the famous great cultivators around the mountain city. His battle record was very shocking.

There were once three great cultivators at the Spirit Transformation Stage who joined forces to try to keep the young man who was known as the Divine Sword and obtain his inheritance, but all of them failed. It was suspected that they were repelled by the young man and couldn't catch him at all.

When this matter came out, the entire mountain city was shaken and shocked by the combat strength of the Divine Sword.

However, even so, no one in the mountain city knew the true identity of the Divine Sword. They only knew that the other party had suddenly appeared more than a year ago, his cultivation was profound, and he had already reached the Spirit Transformation Stage.

Moreover, in its hands was an existence that seemed to be a Heavenly Weapon, and its wealth was particularly shocking.

"Father, I've finally reached this level..."

In the Bai family's courtyard, Bai An looked at his father's memorial tablet and paid his respects respectfully.

"I'm about to leave, and I'm afraid I won't be able to visit you often in the future..."

He paid his respects seriously while mumbling to himself.

In the past few years, the Divine Sword that had appeared in the mountain city was naturally none other than Bai An.

As early as two years ago, he had broken through that layer of isolation and finally advanced, reaching the Spirit Transformation Stage.

If he continued to cultivate bitterly, the effects would no longer be great at this level. Therefore, he began to call himself the Divine Sword and visited the great cultivators around the mountain city one after another from that time on.

He visited them one by one and challenged them one by one. It was not for the sake of fame but for what he had learned. He improved through fighting to improve himself.

Reality proved that this method was indeed effective. In just a little more than a year, he had already advanced to a brand new level and entered the next stage of the Spirit Transformation. He was only one step away from the later stage.

This cultivation level was basically the level of Bai An's father. If it were to be said, it would be enough to shock everyone and make people feel incredulous if it were to be said.

A child had grown to such a level in silence, reaching a brand new level.
