Yang Zhen looked at the retreating figure of Hua Youyue, took a deep breath, and turned to the quarreling cat and chicken, saying, “Let’s move fast and see what’s happening at the Bone Mountain.”
The smug cat looked at the slightly embarrassed chicken and strode over to Yang Zhen, saying in a deep voice, “Kid, if what you saw during your spirit journey is real, I advise you to be careful.”
Yang Zhen was puzzled and asked, “Why?”
“A person who can kill you with a glance, even if he’s not a Great Saint, is still a peak Heavenly Lord. That might not be his full strength. From what you said, his power obviously has some limit. Are you sure you saw a person and not a Spirit Soul or Spirit Consciousness?”
Yang Zhen was speechless, saying, “It was a critical situation. I, the Sao Saint, could hardly see clearly. But that sensation was unmistakable. I would’ve died if I’d been a bit slower!”
Mo Xuelingwas shocked and asked in surprise, “There was no chance of survival at all?”
Yang Zhen thought for a moment and nodded, “None. Not one bit. It was a kind of terror power that rd never seen. Damn, even my Spirit Soul started to
tremble.”
Hua Youyue, ahead, shivered and turned to say to Yang Zhen, “That was the
Sacred Law.”
“What?” The cat’s eyes widened, and it asked incredulously, “Girl, are you sure
it was Sacred Law?”
Hua Youyue nodded and said, “Only Sacred Law can make a Spirit Soul tremble.
It’s an extremely powerful force that we currently can’t withstand.”
Yang Zhen gasped, asking, “So inheriting such power can even be guarded by a
Great Saint. Girl, are you sure you can get that inheritance?
Mo Xueling along with the cat and chicken were all looking at Hua Youyue in surprise.
Considering how powerful an inheritance guarded by a Great Saint could be, the claim that Hua Youyue could obtain it was astounding, especially seeing as her current power level was only barely comparable to that of Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen had numerous tricks at his disposal, many of which involved merging powers that common people couldn’t even imagine. He mastered their use flawlessly.
If Yang Zhen, with his versatile powers, couldn’t even withstand a Great Saint’s gaze, could Hua Youyue really obtain the inheritance under the protection of such a powerful Saint?
“Yes!”
Declared Hua Youyue unequivocally, causing Yang Zhen and the others to gasp.
Yang Zhen looked at Hua Youyue in surprise, “I’m increasingly curious about this lineage now, to render you so certain.”
“Kid, you better worry about your own life. Inheriting such power, having such a strong being, a single glare from it could kill you!” The cat scoffed, its eyes rolling around, seemingly looking for an opportunity to sneak away.
Yang Zhen grabbed the cat and said, “Are you dumb? The lady already said she could get the inheritance for sure, what’s there to worry about?”
The cat paused, its eyes brightened, and it exclaimed with understanding,
“That makes sense; do I still need to go into seclusion then?
Yang Zhen looked at the cat with a half-smile, “You could, no need for too long though, just twenty days will do.”
“Damn it!” The cat twisted its body, “In twenty days, the Forbidden Land of Life will be closed. What’s the point of seclusion then? I might as well wait for death in this spooky place.”
Mo Xueling stood at the back, looking at Yang Zhen and Hua Youyue skeptically.
Such a powerful lineage, only people as monstrous as Yang Zhen and Hua Youyue would dare to touch it. A lineage guarded by a Great Saint is terrifying just to think about!
Along their journey, Yang Zhen and the others were coming across an increasing number of bodies, many of which were practitioners who’d recently arrived and mysteriously died in their tracks without a single sign of injury. However, the skin of some practitioners had started to turn red, which looked exceptionally eerie.
Yang Zhen was horrified and brought a hand to his chest, “Are these the ones who died mysteriously here?”
Mo Xueling’s expression sank, “The Forbidden Land of Life has always been known as a place of death; people dying here is far from unusual. But as you’ve said before, man dies for riches as birds for food. Although this place is fraught with danger, the opportunities it offers are incomparable to the outside world.
Yang Zhen nodded, “That’s true. The treasures found here are everywhere. Even the Sinful Sea marshland is full of Earth Store Roots. Despite being lifeless, these are formed purely from the aura of death. Such rare treasures can surely drive most people crazy.”
“There are people ahead!” Mo Xueling suddenly exclaimed, pointing at a desolate path up ahead.
A group was moving cautiously forward. There were a few injured among them, continuously scratching their arms.
“Let’s ask them about what has been happening here!” Yang Zhen gestured, just about to approach when suddenly a huge noise came from a valley ahead, making the entire ground shake.
“Damn it!” Yang Zhen stumbled, pulling Hua Youyue and Mo Xueling to stabilize them.
The cat and chicken rolled forward quite a way before stopping, lifting their heads in confusion and asking, “What happened?”
Buzz–!
A tremendous wave of air surged from the valley. Countless petals showered down from the sky, releasing a strong terrifying air that made them hard to look at.
Petals?
Why would there be petals in such a place?
Yang Zhen, stunned, instinctively looked over at Hua Youyue, who was staring at the spectacle in shock.
The people ahead of them were also knocked flat, becoming tumbling balls. They scrambled up and excitedly ran forward, even leaving the injured behind. “Let’s go quickly; the inheritance has emerged, it’s Saint-Level inheritance!
A shout came from the crowd, and everyone sped up.
Yang Zhen scanned the surroundings, his expression changing. He turned to Hua Youyue in surprise, “Is it that inheritance?”
He found this place somewhat familiar. In the valley ahead was the location of the wooden house.
Hua Youyue nodded, turned back to Yang Zhen and said, “Let’s go have a look.” Yang Zhen hesitated for a moment before cautioning Hua Youyue, “Girl… be careful.”
Hua Youyue nodded, saying, “I can feel it. This is the aura.
Boom–!
Another shocking roar came, rocking the entire area-deafening. Without any flashes of lightning, countless petals fell through half the sky before disappearing after they landed on the ground.
Yang Zhen watched in amazement, looking up to see the countless petals falling like rain. Heavenly music appeared from nowhere, and a mysterious air took shape, making it hard to breathe.
This aura, like it was from the heavens and the earth, pressed down with a threatening presence. Yang Zhen’s face changed.
The girl was right. It was this aura..
