1440 The Great One's Proposal
Yuan already knew that he wouldn't receive any reward for pleting the Great One's trial, but he still wanted to see if there would be any difference.
"It was a lot easier than I'd anticipated…" Yuan muttered to himself as he left the scene.
However, as he reached the exit, he sensed a profound gaze staring at him.
He immediately turned around.
"You are…" Yuan was slightly surprised by the sudden appearance of an eye that hovered at the corner of the room.
"Oh? You can see me?" The eye spoke in a slightly surprised tone.
"You must be the Great One." Yuan quickly identified the identity of this golden eye.
The Great One narrowed his eyes slightly and remained silent for a few moments.
"It hasn't been that long since our last encounter, yet your progress has been... monstrous, for lack of a better term," The Great One remarked.
The Great One had already recognized Yuan's potential from their first meeting, but he never could have imagined that he had underestimated Yuan's talent to such an extent.
"Hahaha!"
The Great One suddenly started laughing.
"Yuan, correct? Why did you challenge the trial even though you wouldn't receive anything?"
"I just felt like it." Yuan casually shrugged.
"Interesting… then allow me to ask you another question—
why have you returned to the Shadow Realm? If you're seeking treasure, I'm afraid you won't find anything besides the ones within the Treasure Room."
"I'm not here for treasures." Yuan shook his head and did not further explain his situation.
The Great One stared directly into Yuan's eyes, almost as though he wanted to read Yuan's memories like the last time. However, he quickly realized that he was unable to see anything and swiftly gave up.
"I have never met anyone half as talented as you." The Great One sighed.
"Thank you."
"..."
After a moment of silence, the Great One spoke in a serious voice, "It's been countless years since I last met someone with even half your potential. It would be a waste to ignore such talents, so I have a proposal. How about being my disciple?"
"Excuse me? You want to accept me as your disciple?" Yuan didn't dare to believe his ears.
"Indeed. If you bee my disciple, I will help you reach the God Ascension realm within 1,000 years."
Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "What about your legacy?"
"What about it?"
"Would it still count if I met you in such a manner?"
"Hahaha!"
The Great One started laughing again.
"The treasures I'll give to my own disciple will naturally be much better than the legacy's reward, something I created out of boredom! To tell you the truth, the legacy's rewards are mostly just random trash I've picked up throughout the years. Of course, even trash that I pick up is better than what the top families in the Nine Heaven could provide!"
Yuan was left speechless by this revelation. The notion that the creation of the Great One's Legacy stemmed from mere boredom caught him entirely off guard.
"You look disappointed. Is it due to the rewards or something else?" The Great One inquired.
"A little bit of both, I guess."
"As I'd said, even though the treasures for the legacy are worthless to me, they are still extremely valuable to others—
especially humans. I can randomly pick a treasure from the pile and it would be valuable enough to start a war."
"Of course, you wouldn't have to worry about that if you became my disciple, as you'll have access to the most powerful techniques and valuable treasures in the Nine Heavens."
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime offer. Even Immortals and Gods would not hesitate to bee my servant, much less a disciple."
The Great One became silent and patiently awaited Yuan's response.
