The water churned before him, and ice shards flew everywhere. Lin Feng enveloped his entire body with spiritual energy to avoid being struck down by the icy shards.
Below was an endless abyss with no bottom in sight; if one were to fall now, who knew where one would end up?
With a loud bang, the scene before my eyes changed once again.
A grand, ice-blue hall came into view.
"This is……"
After Lin Feng landed, Mo Liang and the other three also appeared one after another.
It's good news that it wasn't scattered by the turbulence.
"It is the Bixi Palace."
Lin Feng explained, "Legend has it that this palace was specially built by Li Yijian, the owner of this heritage, for his lover. The building material is the finest ice iron, which is now rare on the market."
"Wow... even if we don't get anything, just prying off two pieces of ice iron can fetch a good price outside."
Jiang Ling's mouth dropped open, her eyes practically glued to the palace walls.
"You're so unambitious, can't you have any aspirations?"
Mo Liang reprimanded him, then looked around.
Besides the towering palace, the surrounding area consisted of small mounds of earth. According to the intelligence brokers in Ningluo City, these mounds contained worthless low-level cultivation techniques, pills, ice stones, and other cultivation consumables.
It sounds good, but it's actually one of the least valuable things in the heritage.
The most valuable treasures were all kept in Li Yijian's "Three Great Halls".
The Bixi Palace is one of them. In addition, there are the Tuanhe Palace and the Xuanshuang Palace. The Xuanshuang Palace is the largest and contains the most treasures, but it is also more dangerous.
"It is said that if you want to enter the Xuanshuang Palace, you must first collect the 'Sword Master's Tokens' of the Bixi Palace and the Tuanhe Palace."
"The Sword Master's Token of Bixi Palace is certainly hidden inside, but if you want to obtain the token, you will definitely face certain dangers."
"Li Yijian must have set up a test inside."
Bai Xuanqing casually broke open a small mound of earth, obtained a few mid-grade ice stones, and said with a surprised expression, "It seems that Li Yijian also considered the strength of the martial artists entering the inheritance. If their strength is insufficient, this is his compensation for them, so that the younger generation will not make a wasted trip."
“That’s right. This is also a reminder to those who are not strong enough not to overestimate themselves.” Lin Feng nodded in agreement. “Based on this, the level of danger inside this Bixi Palace is probably far beyond our imagination.”
After all, Mo Liang and the others' information was wrong. As far as he knew, Li Yijian was not only a powerful expert at the Emperor Realm when he was alive. He just declined in strength later. But even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. So what if his cultivation declined? His strength was still not to be underestimated. The legacy he left behind would naturally test the strength and character of his successors.
"Go in."
None of them hesitated for long.
The path of a martial artist is just like this: if one is timid and hesitant, how can one achieve the Great Dao?
Besides, there are two Overlord Realm experts here, so there's nothing to be afraid of.
Pushing open the heavy, light-colored bronze door, a blast of icy cold air rushed out.
The interior of the main hall was empty, with only thirty water vortexes about half a person's height in front of it. Some of the vortexes were grayish-black, while most were a normal light blue.
"Does this mean we're going to enter different vortexes separately?" Jiang Ling asked nervously.
“That’s right, that’s it. These gray-black vortexes mean that someone has already entered them and is likely fighting against the clone left behind by Li Yijian.”
"There are a total of thirty vortexes, representing thirty clones. As long as three people can defeat the clones, they will obtain the inheritance within the Bixi Palace and also receive a Sword Master's Token."
“That’s not difficult at all,” Wei Hongyi said dismissively.
"Don't be arrogant. Li Yijian's requirement is that three people clear the level. With such an easy condition, do you think the clone he left behind can be weak?"
Mo Liang glared at her.
"If you're not very confident in your own abilities, why not stay here?"
He noticed that Jiang Ling looked somewhat nervous, probably because he was unsure about his own cultivation level.
“That’s right. Nobody knows if Li Yijian will actually kill. If he really shows no mercy, then those with weaker cultivation levels will be in danger.”
"Then I'll stay here."
Jiang Ling gritted her teeth and decided to stay here for some fresh air.
Lin Feng patted him on the shoulder, then looked at Bai Xuanqing, who was staring intently at a vortex, and said, "I'm going."
She possesses a family secret treasure, so she might not be a match for that clone!
And so, the decision was made.
Lin Feng didn't hesitate and stepped into the vortex first.
Splash!
A powerful surge of spiritual energy rippled outwards.
When he opened his eyes again, he was standing on the sea, with dark, inky clouds overhead, filled with lightning!
Beneath our feet lies the deep sea, rippling with waves, its depths unfathomable!
The sea breeze made his robes flutter and rustle!
Opposite Lin Feng stood a middle-aged man in a blue robe, carrying a long, azure sword covered with obscure patterns. Streaks of sword energy rippled outwards, stirring the salty seawater beneath his feet!
Li Yijian slowly turned around, his sharp gaze seemingly containing a myriad of sword energies.
boom!
"Level 5 of the Overlord Realm?"
Lin Feng raised his eyebrows.
He tried to unleash the power of the Divine Realm to kill the man in one move, but as soon as he released his spiritual power, an uncomfortable feeling of pressure came from the surrounding space.
Lin Feng shook his head helplessly.
No, if he were to truly unleash the power of a god, his spiritual energy would exceed the limit that this inheritance could withstand, and he would most likely be ejected directly by the distorted space.
At most, he could only unleash cultivation at the same level as Li Yijian, which is the fifth level of the Overlord Realm.
"Young man, you have reached the Divine Realm at such a young age, which is truly commendable!"
Li Yijian has sharp features.
"But I was prepared for this. Your cultivation level can only be released up to the Overlord Realm at most!"
"Though I die, my will remains! I will not allow you to run rampant within the legacy!"
Lin Feng sighed softly and obtained the Primordial Immortal Sword.
"What a sharp sword!"
Li Yijian's pupils contracted slightly.
He had never seen the Primordial Immortal Sword, so naturally he didn't know it was one of the world's great immortal swords. However, as a sword cultivator, he could clearly sense the sword energy floating above him! A surging sword soul!
Whoosh!
Lin Feng stood in mid-air, his body surging with sword energy, actually cutting the air into fragments!
Li Yijian gave him a deep look.
Sword Intent!
This is actually sword intent!
Li Yijian, who was known as a sword genius during his lifetime and was praised by thousands, was still a step away from truly comprehending the essence of swordsmanship before his death.
Simply put, Sword Heart judges a swordsman's diligence, while Sword Intent demands extremely high talent from the swordsman! If the opportunity hasn't arrived, even if one directly forges oneself into a sword, one still cannot comprehend Sword Intent!
This young man in front of me has such terrifying talent!
A fierce fighting spirit gradually ignited in Li Yijian's eyes!
