Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 576: Reunion with Wu Han

"Is this inside the Inheritance Mirror?" Xu Ping’an murmured to himself.

He looked at the scene before him, somewhat puzzled.

Because at this moment, there was nothing in front of him, just like chaos.

"Buzz!"

The Space-Time Rune flew out from Xu Ping’an’s body, beginning to madly devour the power of space-time.

Xu Ping’an’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, he found he couldn’t stop the Space-Time Rune from continuing to consume.

With no other choice, Xu Ping’an had to let it be.

Just as he was about to look around, fragments of the Heaven-Penetrating Mirror also flew out from his body.

"Huh? Why have you come out too?" Xu Ping’an was puzzled.

Before he could react, a strong fluctuation burst forth from the fragment of the Heaven-Penetrating Mirror.

The next moment, the chaos around seemed to dissipate.

A scene appeared before Xu Ping’an.

It was a grand hall, and inside it seemed to be a young man in white sitting.

At first, the appearance of the young man in white was somewhat blurry, but as time passed, his features gradually became clear.

This was an exceptionally handsome man, like a striking figure standing against the wind.

When Xu Ping’an saw the man’s appearance, he showed an incredibly surprised expression.

Wu Han?

Wu Han, the Sect Master of Holy Heavenly Sect?

Xu Ping’an was astoundingly perplexed.

Could it be that this image records something about Wu Han?

Could it be related to the Temporal Dao Principles?

If that’s really the case, then it’s quite a catch.

"You came?" Just as Xu Ping’an was speculating in his heart.

The young man in white suddenly looked in Xu Ping’an’s direction and spoke.

As soon as he said these words, Xu Ping’an was startled.

Isn’t it just an image?

Can he actually see me?

No, he had duped me before; it’s impossible for him to sense my presence. He must have intentionally recorded this segment.

"Don’t doubt it, I can see you. We’ve met before, haven’t we?" the young man in white said with a smile.

Xu Ping’an just pursed his lips, still trying to deceive me?

Do you think I’m foolish?

I won’t fall for this trick a second time.

"Has anyone ever told you that you look unattractive when you purse your lips?" the young man in white said, raising his eyebrows again.

This time, Xu Ping’an was truly stunned.

Can he really see?

What the hell!

How is that possible?

"Senior, can you really see me?" Xu Ping’an deliberately changed his position.

But the young man in white’s gaze followed him, causing Xu Ping’an to instantly numb.

This guy could actually see him.

Weren’t we agreed it’s only an image?

What’s going on?

"There’s no need to be surprised. This is a Soul Mark I left behind. It will only appear when the Space-Time Rune, the fragment of the Heaven-Penetrating Mirror, and the Inheritance Mirror come together," said Wu Han with a smile.

"So it was a Soul Mark," Xu Ping’an sighed in relief.

He had thought it was an image.

But Wu Han’s scheming was pretty ruthless.

"Senior, how did you know I would enter the Inheritance Mirror?" Xu Ping’an asked in surprise.

"Guesswork. Since the Inheritance Mirror and the Heaven-Penetrating Mirror were originally one, they would eventually reunite. As for you, you were chosen by both the Heaven-Penetrating Mirror and the Inheritance Mirror, not by me," Wu Han said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Xu Ping’an asked, puzzled.

"Actually, the Heaven-Penetrating Mirror and the Inheritance Mirror are originally a single Innate Spirit Treasure called the Hao Tian Mirror. But in the Primordial Era, a powerful being split this Innate Spirit Treasure into two Divine Artifacts, hence the existence of the Heaven-Penetrating Mirror and the Inheritance Mirror," Wu Han explained.

Hao Tian Mirror?

Xu Ping’an was somewhat astonished.

He hadn’t expected that the Heaven-Penetrating Realm and the Inheritance Mirror were originally one weapon, and an Innate Spirit Treasure from legend?

Even though he didn’t know the exact rank of this Innate Spirit Treasure, he was aware that it was definitely a very powerful item, much stronger than Divine Artifacts.

"Then why did Senior say they chose me?" Xu Ping’an asked, perplexed.

"Do you know that Innate Spirit Treasures possess spirituality?" Wu Han asked with a smile.

"Junior is aware, I have once encountered an Artifact Spirit of an Innate Spirit Treasure," Xu Ping’an responded.

"Is it the one inside your ring?" Wu Han asked with a smile.

Xu Ping’an’s face showed surprise, Wu Han even knew about this.

Didn’t that mean he had no secrets from him?

"In fact, your ring is also an Innate Spirit Treasure," Wu Han said with a smile.

"Eh? The Attribute Ring is an Innate Spirit Treasure?" Xu Ping’an was somewhat astonished.

He hadn’t at all expected the Attribute Ring to also be an Innate Spirit Treasure.

He had thought it was just a Divine Artifact.

Does that mean combining the Nine Attributes Ring results in an Innate Spirit Treasure?

"We’ve gone off-topic. I said they chose you because they too wish to merge again, and they can’t do it with their own power. Only someone who has mastered the Space-Time Dao Principle to a certain Realm can reunite them. They originally chose me, but unfortunately, I disappointed them and didn’t merge them together, even causing the Heaven-Penetrating Mirror to shatter," Wu Han replied.

"So, they chose me again?" Xu Ping’an asked.

"Right, they chose you again. You are the person they favor. One day, you’ll master the formidable power of space and time, and you’ll be able to bring them together again," Wu Han said with a smile.

"What’s in it for me?" Xu Ping’an asked, a bit speechless.

Why always choose him?

Even a mirror made the same choice?

"Of course, there are benefits. The Space-Time Mirror itself holds a formidable space-time power. If they recover, they will possess infinite strength," Wu Han said.

"Senior left a Soul Mark, just to tell me all these?" Xu Ping’an asked.

"Of course not, that’s not the main point. I left the mark in order to pass on a legacy to you. Since you’re pursuing the path of space and time, my insights might be of some help to you," Wu Han explained.

"Senior’s legacy? Insights on space and time?" Xu Ping’an was immediately elated.

If he had Wu Han’s insights on space and time, then his own journey in understanding space and time would be much easier, and he might even quickly step into the Realm of Dao Laws.

"Not exactly," Wu Han, however, shook his head.

Xu Ping’an’s face instantly fell with disappointment.

"I could give you my insights on space and time, but that might not be beneficial for you. My insights would influence you, potentially leading you down the wrong path, and it would be very difficult for you to break free from my constraints later," Wu Han said.

Xu Ping’an nodded in agreement.

Indeed, everyone’s insights are different.

If he were to blindly imitate Wu Han, he would be unable to continue his own path later on.

"Then, what is the legacy Senior mentioned?" Xu Ping’an asked.

"A segment of imagery, a scene of my battle with another powerful Heavenly Immortal during my time in the Heavenly Immortal Realm," Wu Han answered.

Imagery of Wu Han’s battle?

That was something Xu Ping’an definitely wanted to observe carefully, as it might be of significant help to him.
