Bai Xinghe nodded and quickly replied, "Correct . In order to break into the Divinity Transformation Stage, Yan Xinjian levied and looted on Spider Den . He annihilated a lot of pirate gangs with the excuse that they violated the 'Ten Sword Rules' before collecting all their resources . Naturally, he made a lot of enemies . There were even more who behaved nicely and obediently but were in fact merely scared of the tremendous soldiers under his control .
"It was not a small task to break into the Divinity Transformation Stage from the Nascent Soul Stage . Three to five years were already rarely seen . During the breakthrough, the Cultivator needs to be totally focused . They have absolutely no time or energy to care about other affairs .
"If Yan Xinjian did not show up on the ground for several years, his power would definitely be assumed, and the reign of iron and blood built by him would collapse . When other space pirates learned that he was hiding below the ground doing his training, they would definitely do anything they could to sabotage his endeavor to enter the Divinity Transformation Stage .
"During the period when a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator broke into the Divinity Transformation Stage, it was like a caterpillar in a cocoon waiting to become a butterfly . It was the most vulnerable time of their life . They had to pass through all kinds of difficulties and were prone to heavy wounds or mental derangement at any time .
"If his enemies suddenly marched into his training room when Yan Xibei was mentally deranged, it was not hard to guess what would happen next .
"Therefore, in order to advance into the Divinity Transformation Stage successfully, Yan Xinjian made full preparations . Not only did he establish a secret training room ten thousand meters below the surface, he also set up multiple lethal traps based on the original fortress .
"Yan Xinjian created 'Ten Sword Rules' when he governed Spider Den . He was quite merciful to his prey in space, but to the space pirates on his side, he was cruel and ruthless and would butcher them easily .
"Many space pirates at that time complained about his petty kindness . Hundreds of years later, many people in the world of Cultivators still hold him in high regard, insisting that he at least had a certain mortal standard .
"But they did not know that Yan Xinjian was so tough on the space pirates and performed purges every once in a while partly in order to accumulate wealth and resources quickly, which were necessary for his breakthrough into the Divinity Transformation Stage, and partly, as well as more importantly, to execute all the insiders with the purges as the disguise .
"After everybody who knew the secret training room and the underground traps was wiped out, Yan Xinjian 'died abruptly'!
"But in reality, he secluded himself underground for the breakthrough into the Divinity Transformation Stage!"
Li Yao was hooked and couldn't help but ask, "If so, the anecdote should be a top secret . How do you know it?"
Bai Xinghe smiled and said, "I found some of Yan Xinjian's notes from the super crystal processors of the Star Prier's House . He set the notes to be automatically unlocked and readable three hundred years after he entered the secret training room .
"If somebody entered the Star Prier's House and activated the super crystal processors within three hundred years, not only would they have no access to the notes, all the traps in the underground fortress would be triggered immediately and destroy everything!"
Li Yao thought through the whole thing very quickly .
Whether the breakthrough to the Divinity Transformation Stage succeeded or failed, the answer would be revealed within a hundred years .
If Yan Xinjian successfully advanced into the Divinity Transformation Stage, he should have ended his seclusion in several decades . By then, he could always modify or delete his notes, and he could have governed Spider Den again as the 'best expert of the Flying Star Sector' .
If he did not turn on the super crystal processors three hundred years later, there was only one possibility, which was that he was dead .
The breakthrough from the Nascent Soul Stage to the Divinity Transformation Stage was a risky process . Even without the influence of the apocalypses, the success rate was no higher than 10% . Yan Xinjian probably left those notes in order to leave his legacy for the latecomers . Many high-level Cultivators would do similar things for total strangers when they were striving to enter a higher level .
"The notes that I received marked the secret training room and the locations of the traps in great detail," Bai Xinghe said . "It also recorded part of Yan Xinjian's secret arts and techniques . However, according to the notes, most of Yan Xinjian's magical equipment and techniques were stored in his secret training room . He hoped that those who were fortunate enough to read the notes could open his secret training room and become his real successor!"
Li Yao suddenly beamed with joy . "So, you are indeed Yan Xinjian's successor!"
Bai Xinghe sneered and shook his head . "No, I am not . I did not open Yan Xinjian's secret training room . "
Li Yao was dumbfounded .
The secret training room of a Cultivator in the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage equaled to his treasury . There must have been immeasurable benefits hidden inside . Yet, Bai Xinghe, the space pirate who made his living from others' fortunes, chose not to open it?
"Why?"
Bai Xinghe replied coldly, "Because I didn't believe in Yan Xinjian .
"When I was young, I once considered the 'supreme space pirate' as my role model and went through a lot of trouble to collect information about him .
"After cross-checking the files and the notes he left, I felt more and more alarmed as I studied deeper .
"On the surface, all the files stated that Yan Xinjian ran away from Heavenly Saints City and ended up on Spider Den because his wife cheated on him . The man burst into a fury and slew countless people .
