Chapter 214: Inheritance begins, the whole city trembles
Such a heaven-reaching and earth-penetrating feat couldn\'t be described as mere spells; it was a divine ability, a power that even Elemental Infant cultivators might not possess!
"Honored guests from afar, welcome to Wuyou City!"
A deep, resonant voice echoed from the horizon, reaching everyone\'s ears.
All listened intently, eyes unblinking.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The middle-aged scholar standing high in the sky spoke loudly, "I am Mo Wuyou, the City Lord of Wuyou. Within the city, I have left five places of inheritance. Now, the first inheritance site has opened. You have only one month to find the remaining four!"
"A month later, those who find the inheritance sites can undergo the next round of trials and ultimately compete for my entire legacy!"
Upon hearing this, everyone\'s minds became active.
Bai Luo stared at the figure in the sky, murmuring, "Is this the third-generation ancestor of the Divine Puppet Sect?""Indeed, it matches the portrait!" Lei He replied in a deep voice.
"But shouldn\'t he have the surname Gongshu?" Bai Luo questioned in surprise.
Though the Heavenly Puppet Sect is just a branch, there are some records about the successive leaders of the headquarters.
The first leader was Gongshu Zi, the second was Mo Ban, and the following six generations were all from the Gongshu family.
Only the third leader remained a taboo, with no records at all.
Lei He was silent for a moment before saying, "Such secrets are beyond my knowledge. You should ask your master."
Bai Luo nodded heavily.
Regardless, with the inheritance sites opened, the next goal was clear, rather than wandering aimlessly like headless flies, playing cat and mouse with the Chu Tian Alliance.
At this moment, the members of the Four Sects Alliance narrowly escaped death.
The Thirteenth Ancestor widened his eyes, exclaiming, "There are four more inheritance sites?"
Everyone exchanged glances, realizing what this meant.
It meant they had a great chance to seize one, or even two or three!
The Heavenly Puppet Sect would undoubtedly secure one, without a doubt, and the Four Sects Alliance could take the leftovers.
Everyone\'s spirits immediately soared; this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to defy fate.
"Our Snake Catchers Sect must secure one inheritance site," Yin Mingzi said solemnly.
Not just them, but everyone in Wuyou City was equally excited.
They came to the ancient relics seeking great opportunities and fortunes, didn\'t they?
Now, the greatest fortune lay right before them, so what reason was there not to fight for it?
But Mo Wuyou\'s next words poured cold water on everyone.
"Although my inheritance is open to all, I advise you not to make a fool of yourself if you don\'t have the strength of the Core Formation Stage."
"If you\'re not capable, even if I grant you a fortune, you won\'t be able to handle it!"
"I\'m only giving you a month, so make the most of it!"
With those words, Mo Wuyou\'s apparition completely vanished.
But the historical projections within Wuyou City remained, proving that what had just happened was no illusion but reality!
"To think it requires Core Formation Stage cultivation!"
"The Core Formation Stage, whether in the Chu Kingdom or the Qin Kingdom, is a top-tier expert, and there aren\'t many of them."
"It seems it\'s not meant for us."
Of those who came to the ancient relics, over ninety percent were Foundation Establishment cultivators, with very few at the Core Formation Stage.
And the Core Formation Stage was merely a threshold.
This undoubtedly deterred the majority of cultivators.
However, some still harbored a glimmer of hope, wanting to try their luck.
The Chu Tian Alliance had already settled at a new stronghold, having prepared several such places like a cunning rabbit with multiple burrows.
"Four inheritance sites, Core Formation Stage..."
Xu Qingfeng pondered briefly before swiftly making a decision.
They must strive for one of Mo Wuyou\'s inheritances; after all, the Chu Tian Alliance came for opportunities!
He quickly took out a map, marking it and planning the next exploration. Everyone would act separately, and they had to find the remaining inheritance sites within a month.
"Hey, Bald Snake, hey! Are you dazed?!"
Vulture patted the dazed Xu Hei.
Xu Hei snapped back to reality, still shocked.
Just now, after his avatar entered the inheritance site, it lost contact with his true self.
This phenomenon occurs when the distance is too great or when separated by a formation.
At that time, the avatar would act according to the original will of the true self, and only when the connection is reestablished would the seen images be transmitted back.
"The avatar must have been eliminated."
Xu Hei took a deep breath, touched his forehead with his fingertip, and the memories from the avatar\'s last moments gradually returned.
He could only see some fragmented images.
"Ice and snow, Water Realm, Five Elements Inheritance, tenfold time..."
After a long while, Xu Hei opened his eyes again, seeing some fragments from the avatar\'s last moments.
They seemed to have been transported into a strange space where time flowed ten times faster; one month outside was a year inside.
From the images, it appeared to be the Water of the Five Elements Land.
As for who eliminated him, he couldn\'t see clearly; his avatar only had thirty percent of his true self\'s strength, and any Core Formation cultivator could easily kill him.
"Forget it, I never expected the avatar to survive. It\'s already a miracle that the Zhou Family allowed an enemy to follow them for so long," Xu Hei muttered to himself.
He immediately found Xu Qingfeng and shared this information.
"The City Lord\'s mansion? Water Inheritance?"
Xu Qingfeng\'s expression turned serious, "Very well, this information is crucial to me. No need for thanks; if you have any requests, feel free to ask!"
He and Xu Hei were in a cooperative relationship, and since it was a partnership, benefits couldn\'t be taken for free.
"I want a pill for healing and the ancient relic\'s pill compendium!" Xu Hei said.
Xu Qingfeng pondered briefly and glanced at Zhang Tie.
Without a word, Zhang Tie took out a jade bottle sealed with a talisman and handed it to Xu Hei. The words "Blood Locking Pill" were written on it.
This pill was precious, and they had only found three.
Then, Xu Qingfeng personally crafted a pill compendium, detailing all the pills he knew.
"Thank you."
Xu Hei accepted the jade bottle and compendium, and his divine sense probed inside.
He had obtained many ancient pills, but he didn\'t recognize most of them and didn\'t dare to consume them recklessly, urgently needing guidance from an expert.
Xu Qingfeng unfolded the map, marking the location of the City Lord\'s mansion.
"The City Lord\'s mansion is the most important facility within Wuyou City, located in the southwest."
"The other four are of equal status. We must adopt Mo Wuyou\'s perspective to determine what he considers most important."
Xu Qingfeng quickly analyzed and suggested places like the "Academy," "Medical Hall," and "Martial Hall" as references.
Zhao Wenzhuo took out a tortoiseshell, calculating something continuously.
