The portal once again opened in the hall, but there wasn't any life energy that poured out of it like last time.
In fact, with the way that it drains some of the life energy from the air, it was as if there was a deficit of life energy on the other side.
Slowly, there was a figure that walked out of this portal and into the hall.
But this figure was…completely disheveled.
They had messy hair and a long beard, as if they had been stranded for a long time.
After coming out of the portal, the messy figure said, "I'm finally out…"
There was a ghost that came out with this figure that said, "It wasn't that long. In fact, you actually absorbed the inheritance quite quickly. It was much faster than I had expected."
When the messy figure heard this, there was a vein that popped out on his forehead.
He turned to look at the ghost and said, "Five years! It took an entire five years to absorb all of that! And I couldn't leave until I did!"
