Imperial Cultivation Chapter 1629 - 1625: Inheritance
Previously on Imperial Cultivation...
Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "Sect Master, it might be too early to talk about rewards now."
Ning Dongge laughed and said, "Little Junior Brother, since you say it’s normal, it should be fine."
Zhang Ji Yuan hurriedly said, "Let me try."
"Junior Brother Zhang!" Jing Kaiyang said irritably, "You’ve been hogging all the good things; it’s my turn now, right?"
"Hehe, Brother Jing, you’ve been working too hard. Leave this small matter to me."
"We’re not that overworked; let me do it!"
"Brother Jing..."
"Stop your chatter!" Jing Kaiyang glared at him.
Zhang Ji Yuan opened his mouth but shook his head helplessly: "Fine, fine, since you’re the senior brother."
Jing Kaiyang smiled with satisfaction: "Among us, you’re the most clever!"
"It’s not me now, the clever one is Little Junior Brother." Zhang Ji Yuan chuckled.
Chu Zhiyuan chuckled.
"Little Junior Brother, huh..." Jing Kaiyang chuckled and said, "Little Junior Brother, is it okay if I go in?"
He could laugh and joke with Zhang Ji Yuan, but with Chu Zhiyuan, he couldn’t help being cautious.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "I’ll first remove these arrays, then you can go in."
He flashed to a distant spot in the hall, his figure moving through the forest like disappearing and reappearing rapidly, and soon circled back to his original spot.
The crowd only saw a blur and couldn’t see what happened clearly, and he had already returned.
The array had been broken, and the Divine Stone was already inside his sleeve.
The Void Divine Flower was still there.
He had been watching the changes within the Inheritance Hall.
After the Divine Stone was returned and especially after the external array was removed, the hall surged with peculiar forces.
This strange force felt familiar to him.
He quickly understood that it was Earth Element Power, similar to the force surging within his Spring Acupoint.
He relied on Earth Force for teleportation, merging seamlessly with the earth, borrowing the earth’s power.
The force generating from the array was also Earth Force.
However, compared to the Earth Force within his Spring Acupoint, the Earth Element Power was much weaker.
It lacked heft and purity, similar to the level when he first mastered the Earth Origin Technique.
He shook his head internally.
It seems the Inheritance Hall teleports people entering it away.
Based on this Earth Force, it can be deduced that the teleportation isn’t far.
Is the place nearby?
He thought of the Void Divine Flower.
Through the Void Divine Flower, he sensed its world.
However, while the Void Divine Flower allowed him to sense its world, he couldn’t teleport there directly.
Once the Void Divine Flower returned to its world, it severed connections, as if lost contact.
But with a thought, he could still pull it away from that world, making it appear in his world.
There is now an opportunity.
The Inheritance Hall, however, can directly teleport to that world.
He sudden felt alert.
The Inheritance Hall originates from that world, but does it teleport to that place?
That may not be the case.
He pondered, and his gaze became hollow, looking at Jing Kaiyang.
After a moment, he shook his head.
He couldn’t see whether Jing Kaiyang teleported to where the Void Divine Flower resided.
"Little Junior Brother, what’s wrong?" Jing Kaiyang asked uneasily, seeing Chu Zhiyuan deep in thought.
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "Brother Jing, you can go in now, here, take this."
He took out a Jade Pendant from his chest and handed it to Jing Kaiyang.
Jing Kaiyang smiled and asked, "What’s this?"
Chu Zhiyuan replied, "In critical moments, it might save your life; it’s a precaution."
"Brother Jing, just take it, Little Junior Brother wouldn’t harm you." Zhang Ji Yuan laughed and said, "This is a good thing."
Jing Kaiyang took it and smiled, "It just feels a bit strange."
While speaking, he put the Jade Pendant into his chest.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Inside is a portion of my power. In critical times, activate the mental method, and it will be released."
"Spirit Venerable’s power, okay." Jing Kaiyang patted the Jade Pendant on his chest.
Having this certainly gave him more confidence.
Jing Kaiyang looked at Lu Tiancheng: "Sect Master..."
"Go, be careful." Lu Tiancheng said.
Jing Kaiyang clasped his fist towards the crowd and said with a smile, "I’ll go ahead."
He leaped and flew forward, landing before the hall, and pressed his palm against the door.
The hall door which had been closed slowly opened, he staggered and got pulled inside the hall.
The crowd kept their gaze fixed on the hall.
Chu Zhiyuan, through the Void Divine Flower, saw the situation inside the hall.
Jing Kaiyang stumbled a step after entering the hall, staggered again, and disappeared after two steps forward.
A peculiar force wrapped around him and pulled him out of the hall.
He vanished from the Super Sensing Illumination range, as if completely disappeared from the world.
Chu Zhiyuan’s eyes quickly brightened, chasing the Jade Pendant.
The Jade Pendant carried his Divine Essence, naturally imbued with spiritual power.
However, this spiritual power quickly fell beyond his sensing range, untraceable by the Divine Eye.
He shook his head; this piece of land indeed was different.
Yet, he couldn’t make the journey himself; the hall wouldn’t allow his entry.
Forcing entry didn’t feel right to him.
An unexplainable intuition suggested he abandon the idea.
Zhang Ji Yuan stared intently at the hall entrance: "Little Junior Brother, are you sure it’s safe?"
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Rest assured."
He abandoned the thought of further tracking and instead examined the hall again.
Within the Inner Universe, stones began to stack, quickly building up a hall.
Its size and contour were identical to the Inheritance Hall, as if a one-to-one replica.
Eight Divine Stones were embedded into the hall floor.
Thus, aside from different materials, this hall was almost identical to the Inheritance Hall.
After the array was set up, the Stone Hall’s array began to surge with Earth Force.
Then he drove an ant into the hall, and it flashed and disappeared.
In a moment, it appeared on the mountaintop a hundred meters away.
Chu Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow.
This Shifting Array, can only teleport this far?
Thinking of this, he built another hall with mud and stone brought from Dragon Mountain.
This time, the hall looked exactly like before, once again capturing the ant from atop the mountain into the hall.
As it was captured, he injected a thread of power into its body.
Weak yet pure, wrapping and protecting the ant.
The next moment, the ant disappeared.
It was no longer within the Inner Universe.
Through sensing, Chu Zhiyuan found it atop a mountain of Dragon Mountain.
This confirmed his guess.
The teleport destination was indeed where the hall resided.
He pondered thoughtfully.
Does this imply he could establish a hall leading to any world?
Entering this hall, one could instantly teleport to that world.
Collecting stones from each of the Thirty-Six Heavens to build halls and set the array, one could freely enter any of these halls.
However, in that world, another hall must be built to teleport back.
Though, for disciples of Heaven-Reaching Sect, it wouldn’t make much difference.
Heaven-Reaching Sect disciples are adept at the Ascension Technique, allowing them to step into any world.
Yet for others, it would equate to mastering the Ascension Technique.
If experts from Little Outer Heaven could cultivate in Biyuan Heaven, or in the outer world, what would happen?
But similarly, what if experts from the outer world entered Little Outer Heaven?
He was momentarily solemn.
This matter requires extreme caution, the consequences are unpredictable.
No wonder the Inheritance Hall is so cautious, requiring such stringent conditions for summoning.
"Ha, they’re out!" Zhang Ji Yuan suddenly cheered.
He rushed to the front of the hall, arriving before Jing Kaiyang: "Brother Jing?"
Jing Kaiyang looked pale, his body weak, as if exhausted from a three-day journey.
He waved his hand, unable to muster the strength to speak.
Zhang Ji Yuan supported him: "Brother Jing, was it dangerous?"
"Sigh..." Jing Kaiyang sighed and shook his head.
"Not dangerous?" Zhang Ji Yuan asked.
Jing Kaiyang shook his head: "It wasn’t perilous, just a hall for memory inheritance, quite an ordeal!"
"Memory inheritance, did you receive the inheritance?" Zhang Ji Yuan asked eagerly.
Jing Kaiyang nodded, then waved his hand: "I can’t explain it, I have to practice it myself."
He then perked up: "Such a profound mental method, haha... truly worthy of our Heaven-Reaching Sect’s supreme heritage!"
"More powerful than the Taihao Jade Void Scripture?"
"I haven’t practiced the Taihao Jade Void Scripture, but this mental method... you’ll understand once you see it."
