Chapter Twenty-Four: Plundering the Primordial Constitution

Wang Fan ran with remarkable speed; even with a man in tow, his pace was unaffected. By circulating his vital energy and relying on the power of the Nine-turn Golden Elixir, Wang Fan was able to maintain his swift stride. After thirty or forty seconds, ensuring that surveillance cameras could no longer spot him and there were no pedestrians nearby, he slipped into a narrow alley, dragging the wiry man with him. Once concealed, Wang Fan grabbed the man's collar and hurled him roughly onto the ground.

At that moment, the wiry degenerate stared at Wang Fan, terror etched across his features, clearly fearing for his life. Unmoved by the man's fear, Wang Fan asked in a calm, expressionless voice, "Tell me—can you turn invisible because of your cultivation technique, or is it something unique to you?"

In the dim alley, Wang Fan’s even tone seemed elusive and unfathomable. To the dazed man, the question was almost hypnotic, and he blurted out his answer without thinking, "It’s because of my physique, and also because of the inherited technique!"

Hearing this, a sharp gleam flashed in Wang Fan's eyes, his gaze piercing like a dagger through the night, making the wiry man even more terrified.

"Tell me—what physique do you possess, and what inheritance did you receive in the Hall of Legacy?" Wang Fan demanded, his voice booming with authority as he saw the terror in the man’s eyes. The force of his question compelled the wiry man to spill everything.

"My physique is the Night Physique. When night falls, I can meld into the shadows and become invisible. The technique I practice is called the Earth-Slaughter Art, an earth-grade technique. The inheritance is said to come from the ancient Assassin Dynasty!"

The wiry man stammered out the truth, and his words set Wang Fan deep in thought.

To discover someone with a special physique in Z City surprised Wang Fan, and even more so that this person possessed an earth-grade technique. Did this man really have such luck—answering dozens of questions correctly in the Hall of Legacy to obtain an earth-grade technique, and one perfectly matched to his Night Physique, the legacy of an assassin?

Questions surfaced in Wang Fan’s mind, and he decided not to immediately use his Devourer Demon Art to seize the man’s Night Physique; there was another question, one that puzzled him deeply.

"How many questions did you answer correctly in the Hall of Legacy?"

This time Wang Fan’s tone was solemn, tinged with menace, as if he would kill the man on the spot should he refuse to answer.

Sensing the threat, the wiry man shuddered violently, too frightened to disobey. He revealed a truth that left Wang Fan shocked.

"I only answered one question in the Hall of Legacy, and got it wrong. But afterwards, the Hall didn’t give me a worthless technique. Instead, it activated another protocol—one for special physiques. A voice in the Hall said I was a Night Physique, perfectly suited to the Assassin Dynasty’s inheritance. Then it just gave me the Earth-Slaughter Art, an earth-grade technique!"

When the man finished, Wang Fan was truly stunned. He hadn’t expected that, besides the question-answering mechanism, the Hall of Legacy had another inheritance system. A sense of urgency welled up in him.

There are several billion people on Earth. Among them, some must possess extraordinary physiques—like the Divine King Body, the Lunar Body, the Solar Body, the Primordial Saint Body...

If the holders of such physiques entered the Hall of Legacy, even if they failed the questions, they could still receive high-level inheritances, perhaps even imperial ones!

If there’s a Primordial Saint Body on Earth, then one day, someone might obtain the Supreme Emperor Ye’s inheritance.

If there’s an Eastern Wilderness Divine King Body, that person could receive the Divine King Jiang Taixu’s legacy.

If someone has the Innate Tao Embryo Body, even the Unrivaled Emperor’s inheritor would appear in this world!

If there’s someone with the Supreme Bone Physique, perhaps the ultimate inheritance of the Perfect Immortal Emperor could be gained!

Thinking of this, Wang Fan’s expression darkened. The superiority and satisfaction he once felt quietly faded away.

"Thank you for telling me all this and letting me learn of the Hall of Legacy’s other rules," Wang Fan said with utmost sincerity.

"No need for thanks. Can you let me go now?" the wiry man pleaded.

"Of course. But first, you must tell me all the secrets of the Earth-Slaughter Art’s Wheel Sea chapter from the Assassin Dynasty. If you don
