"Theoretically, it is possible, but the difficulty is extremely high."
"But Feng'er, think about it. If a Heavenly Bestowal Inheritance can be stripped from its original owner, then logically speaking... it should also be transferable to another person."
"In fact, many people have already found ways to allow one holder of a Heavenly Bestowal Inheritance to master multiple such inheritances, thereby enhancing their power."
"However, the constitution of a Heavenly Bestowal Inheritance's bearer seems to be innately different from ordinary people like us."
"Therefore, while a Heavenly Bestowal Inheritance can be transferred to another bearer of such an inheritance, transferring it to an ordinary person is very difficult."
"But I know someone who can accomplish this feat. When you go to the Outer World, you can seek out this person. If he is willing to help, you will have the chance to become the true master of the Four Symbols Divine Power."
"To become a supreme powerhouse who possesses both a Heavenly Bestowal Inheritance and the Heavenly Lightning Bloodline," Chu Xuanyuan said.
"What is this person's name?" Chu Feng asked.
"Old Daoist Ox-Nose," Chu Xuanyuan said.
"Old Daoist Ox-Nose?" Chu Feng committed the name to memory.
"Yes, that's what he's called. Just be aware, that fellow is a tough nut to crack. If you want him to help you, you'll have quite the task ahead of you."
"But that's a concern for later. What you need to do now is convince the Four Symbols Divine Power to obediently return to being a Secret Skill," Chu Xuanyuan said.
"Father, shall I go now?" Chu Feng said.
"Go." With a wave of his hand, Chu Xuanyuan made the surroundings blur. When Chu Feng's vision cleared, he found himself at the location of the four great saint beasts.
Seeing Chu Feng arrive, the old ape seemed to understand immediately. He rose and walked deeper into the forbidden ground.
Now, only Chu Feng and the four great saint beasts remained.
"Chu Feng, how was it? Did you meet your father?" The four great saint beasts asked with considerable concern upon seeing Chu Feng.
"I did. However, seniors, there is something I must tell you all," Chu Feng said.
"What is it?" The four asked in unison, their gazes growing solemn. For Chu Feng to speak with them immediately upon his return signaled something was wrong.
"If things continue as they are now, you four may not live much longer," Chu Feng said.
Upon hearing this, the four great saint beasts fell silent instantly. Just that single sentence seemed to bring many thoughts to their minds.
Naturally, these thoughts included the words of the Magma Emperor.
In that moment, Chu Feng saw deep sorrow in the eyes of the four great saint beasts—an extreme and profound sorrow.
Yet even so, after exchanging glances, they suddenly raised their heads, forcing a smile onto their faces as they said to Chu Feng: "Chu Feng, if that's the case, I fear we won't be able to accompany you into the Outer World."
"Even if the four of us went, we wouldn't be much help. In fact, you'd probably have to look after us. This might actually be a good thing—at least the four of us will no longer be a burden to you."
"Chu Feng, we four sincerely hope that you can make a great mark in the Outer World. Show your family just how great a mistake it was for them to cast you away here."
Their smiles were forced, absolutely forced, but their blessings came from the heart. They genuinely wished for Chu Feng to have a better future.
"Seniors, if you are willing, you could join me in battling through the Outer World."
"There is a method that can allow you to continue living. It's just... I'm afraid it will require you to endure the hardship of becoming Secret Skills once more," Chu Feng said honestly.
"Chu Feng, are you telling the truth? There really is a way for us to continue being Secret Skills?" At these words, the expressions of the four great saint beasts changed dramatically, a look of excitement welling up in each of their eyes.
It was clear they all desperately wanted to keep living. They did not want to die like this.
But they also understood very well that they were not as they once were. To become Secret Skills again now would be incredibly difficult—far harder than before, perhaps even impossible.
"My father can help the four of you return to being Secret Skills," Chu Feng said.
"Good. If that is possible, then we must trouble your father," the four great saint beasts nodded one after another.
"Then I will go speak to my father now." Chu Feng turned to leave.
"Wait, Chu Feng." Suddenly, Bai Hu spoke up.
