Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Seven-Colored Light Pillar, Mysterious Supreme Treasure!

The boy looked up in astonishment and saw Chen Lan standing calmly behind him, terrifying him into standing up immediately, but soon he recognized Chen Lan.

"Are you the Immortal from just now?"

He recognized that Chen Lan was indeed the Immortal who had been chatting and laughing with that woman earlier.

To ordinary people like them, anyone who could cultivate and master Cultivation methods was considered an Immortal.

Upon hearing the word "Immortal," Chen Lan was slightly taken aback; it had been a long time since he had heard that term. He didn’t expect to be called an Immortal in this Desolate Celestial Realm.

After all, Immortals were everywhere here.

"Did you just say you can save my mother?" the boy recalled Chen Lan’s words and asked excitedly.

Chen Lan nodded calmly, then pointed to the boy’s chest: "I want your heart. How about this transaction?"

At this moment, one could see that the Celestial Eye at Chen Lan’s brow had opened. He had been observing the boy all along, but the boy couldn’t see anything unusual about Chen Lan. The Celestial Eye wasn’t something everyone could detect.

Under the Celestial Eye, there were very few things that could escape its notice. So by taking one look at the boy, Chen Lan confirmed the source of that aura—it was the boy’s heart.

The entire heart glowed with vibrant colors, pulsating with vitality.

Upon hearing this, the boy widened his eyes in shock because Chen Lan wanted his life. He turned to look at his mentally challenged mother. She had been mentally impaired since she was young. He was born not knowing who his father was, only knowing that his mother had been forced and that the maniac didn’t even spare a simpleton.

Although his mother was simple-minded, she seemed to know she had a child; even when beaten by others, she would always find food. This went on for ten years; now, he was ten years old, wanting to support and heal his mother, so he kept working to earn money. But, unfortunately, he was born in the Evil Country!

He had thought about taking his mother away, but every time she left the Evil Country, she would huddle under the city wall and refuse to go any further. When he wanted to take her inside, he was blocked by the guards.

He could never forget the words spoken by the guards who mocked him, "Beggars and simpletons are not allowed inside."

In the end, it wasn’t until he was beaten that they allowed him to go inside. Every day, he had to pay a fee to enter or leave the city gates.

"I am willing." The boy turned back to look at Chen Lan, eyes filled with determination, nodding heavily, then unbuttoned his shirt: "As long as you, Immortal, can heal my mother, I am willing to do anything."

"Aren’t you afraid I’ll deceive you?" Chen Lan asked with a slight smile, thinking the boy misunderstood him.

What he wanted was not the entire heart; he could extract the Energy within and didn’t need to dig out the heart. The boy wouldn’t have to die.

But seeing the boy with such a determined and resolute expression, Chen Lan was moved. Filial piety indeed was a great virtue that could always touch and resonate with people.

Yet, this path is not something everyone can follow, because some are undeserving, and some are powerless. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"I’m not afraid because I have no options left. Even if I refuse to give it, you would kill me to take it if you wanted my heart." The boy stared at Chen Lan, fearlessly.

He was gambling, betting whether Chen Lan was a good or bad person, for he understood what kind of world it was. It was a world where the strong preyed on the weak, and the weak had no voice before the strong, only compliance; even if unwilling, one had to be willing, as power dictated everything.

Looking at the boy’s resolute and fearless eyes, Chen Lan remained silent. It was hard to imagine that a child knew more about the world’s harsh truths than many adults did, which was not a good thing but a tragedy.

"I don’t need you to die." Chen Lan said softly, placing a finger on the boy’s chest.

Rumble!

Dark clouds gathered, thunder rumbled, and a rainbow light column descended from the heaven, piercing through the boy’s body, enveloping him. The mentally challenged woman beside was terrified and screamed, wanting to rush over but was restrained by Chen Lan’s Spiritual Power.

In an instant, a powerful suction rendered the boy unconscious, his eyes rolling up as he fainted. Streams of vibrant Energy surged from the boy’s body, entering Chen Lan’s Dantian.

Chen Lan glanced at the rainbow light column, slightly furrowing his brows. Such powerfully terrifying Energy leakage indicated that the whole Evil Country was aware now, making it unsuitable to stay here long.

Instantly, he led the boy and the woman into the Void Space.

As soon as they left, several figures appeared in a flash.

"Just now, powerful Energy erupted here. Something precious or some physique must have awakened. Why is it gone?" a man said coldly. He was the Sovereign of the Evil Country, Evil Slaughter.

They had sensed the Energy and rushed over instantly, only to find nothing, so had it already escaped?

"Strange, we hurried over as soon as possible and still saw nothing," a woman frowned and said.

If Chen Lan were here, he would have recognized her as the woman who took him to the Celestial Dragon Inn.

"Keep searching. An object exuding such terrifying aura must be extraordinary," an elder said in a deep voice, quickly departing.

The woman and Evil Slaughter exchanged glances and left as well.

After an unknown amount of time, in a small alley of the Evil Country, Chen Lan, the boy, and the woman emerged from the Void Space. The boy was still unconscious, held in the woman’s arms. She was crying, thinking her child had suffered some grievance.

With a snap of his fingers, Chen Lan awoke the boy. Once awake, the boy touched his body, bewildered: "Am I dead?"

"Child, my dear child, you are not dead; he saved you. My child, you have suffered so much all these years," the woman sobbed, holding the boy.

Hearing his mother’s coherent and no longer stuttering words, the boy was stunned, then suddenly broke into tears, holding his mother: "Mother, you are healed, you are normal now!"

Watching the mother and child embrace, Chen Lan couldn’t help but smile enviously until the boy, after crying, noticed Chen Lan and knelt down with a plop: "Thank you, Immortal, for saving my mother. Thank you, Immortal!"

The boy was extremely excited. The Immortal hadn’t lied to him; he could indeed heal!

If he hadn’t secretly pinched himself just now, he might have thought he was dreaming.

"Our transaction is complete, leave this place. Here are five hundred thousand Spirit Stones; keep them well. They are enough for you to live a good life away from here."

What Chen Lan referred to as living life was living as ordinary people. If the boy showed any talent and was chosen by an Immortal to be apprenticed, then that would be even better, but all these depended on fate.

After leaving a Storage Bag, Chen Lan turned and walked away.

As Chen Lan left, the boy picked up the Storage Bag, happily holding his mother and dreaming about their future lives.

Unexpectedly, he had paid nothing, and his mother was cured, and he had even gained five hundred thousand Spirit Stones.

It seemed the boy profited, but actually, Chen Lan gained even more.

"Who would have thought such a Supreme Treasure could be found here? Just the aura alone made my body tremble with excitement. What on earth is this Supreme Treasure?!"
