Ren Pingsheng, who was originally prepared to chase after, suddenly stopped at the exit. He didn't know why, but just a moment ago, he had a fleeting glance and noticed that the statue in the center of the Hall seemed to have undergone some changes. The sculptor of this statue was a King-Level Expert at the time, so what could this unusual change signify?
Thus, he halted his steps and slowly walked up to the statue. He observed it carefully; there was a change in the statue's right hand. He clearly remembered that the two objects resembling Heritage were placed on its right hand.
The statue's left hand held a three-foot Longsword, while its right hand was palm-up and extended outward. At that time, those two items were resting on the palm. However, now the right hand was clenched into a fist, and the arm was gradually retracting, indicating that it would eventually cross over its chest.
"What do these changes mean? Could it be that what I saw earlier wasn't the true Heritage?" Ren Pingsheng furrowed his brow in thought; such changes surely wouldn't occur without reason. The only explanation must be related to Heritage.
He mimicked the action: left hand holding a sword, right hand clenched into a fist across his chest, pressed tightly against his torso. It was as if he were making a promise or assurance to someone, yet he still had no clue.
As time passed, the statue's right hand finally crossed over its chest, with the fist pressed firmly against its torso. In that instant, the entire statue seemed to come alive, its eyes fixated on Ren Pingsheng. At that moment, Ren Pingsheng appeared dazed, with countless voices echoing in his mind.
"I, Azure Wood King, vow to complete my mission; I will eradicate the demon race and save my people from peril."
"The remnants of the demon race must be exterminated; they are merely struggling in their death throes while our human race shall thrive."
"How infuriating! A Demon Emperor expert has secretly attacked; we have suffered heavy losses; we must retreat quickly."
"For the prosperity of our human race, even if we die in battle, we will not retreat or regret."
A cacophony of voices rang out in Ren Pingsheng's mind, as if they were experiencing a great war against the demon race where both sides had experts and countless casualties. The nearly one hundred kings in this Sword King Tomb had participated in that battle and suffered heavy losses. When the war ended, those who survived established this Sword King Tomb to ensure their Heritage would endure.
"With this Heritage in hand, I shall fight for the prosperity of our human race!" A sigh echoed through his mind, and then Ren Pingsheng's eyes regained their luster. Suddenly, a green light illuminated the Heart position of the statue, resembling a seed that slowly floated towards Ren Pingsheng.
Ren Pingsheng understood that this was the King-Level Inheritance, but he felt a heaviness in his heart. He did not know why there had been a great war back then, but from the deaths of nearly a hundred kings, he could tell how brutal it had been. Perhaps everything happening now was the result of their struggles back then.
Ren Pingsheng reached out to take the Heritage Flame, feeling an overwhelming sense of emotion. He deeply bowed to the statue before turning to leave. The Heritage was already in hand, and there was no need to stay any longer.
When Ren Pingsheng obtained the Heritage, the entire Inheritance Tower shook, and all the trials within the tower disappeared. Many martial artists who had been trapped inside were finally freed. Madelong and the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master, who had just escaped from the Sixth Layer along with another Disciples of the Evil Sect, also awakened from the endless slaughter.
In that moment of awakening, the two beings rushed towards Madelong. In their eyes, the Heritage was in Madelong's hands, so they naturally pursued him relentlessly. Poor Madelong, filled with excitement, was fleeing outside, completely unaware that what he held was not the true Heritage.
"Oh, has a piece of Heritage emerged?" Far away, a man dressed in a white long robe said gently, though his features were unclear. At that moment, he was playing chess with another man dressed similarly.
"Ying Tianzi, why are you concerned about the Sword King Tomb this time?" The other man with indistinct features asked softly.
"I'm just responding to an invitation. However, there seem to be some variables with this Sword King Tomb; I fear many Heritages will emerge."
"A chaotic era is approaching; humanity will be in danger, and they can sense it too. This is calamity; I just don't know if we can survive it." He sighed softly.
"Our Heavenly Mechanism Sect is said to be able to calculate past and future events, yet we are helpless in the face of this calamity. It's truly tragic! Although we've laid down some pieces on the board, I don't know how much impact they will have," Ying Tianzi murmured, his unclear face revealing an unknown expression.
"Soon, this calamity will arrive; it could be as long as a thousand years or as short as three or four hundred years." After making a move in chess, that man lost interest and gazed into the distance, seemingly lost in thought. As for what they referred to as 'calamity,' it remained unknown.
In this Inheritance Tower where Ren Pingsheng was located, those who survived were expelled by the tower itself. After coming out, Madelong, the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master, and another Disciples of the Evil Sect chased after each other. Some perceptive martial artists seemed to have guessed something and followed suit.
As for the other two passages marked Elixir and treasure on the first layer, they also closed off. It seemed that whenever a Heritage emerged, everything within the tower would come to an end; perhaps these two passages would reopen only when the next Sword King Tomb was activated.
However, the other Heritage that has not yet been born, the Inheritance Tower, is still accessible. The three passages on the first floor remain intact.
Ren Pingsheng exhaled lightly. This time, he had achieved his goal at the Sword King Tomb. The King-Level Inheritance was already in hand, but he was still worried about how Chu Yanran was doing.
"You kid are quite lucky to have obtained the Inheritance Seed," a surprised voice of the Demon Emperor suddenly came from beside him.
"Ah, you’re awake. I tried to contact you in the tower, but there was no response. What is the Inheritance Seed?" He paused for a moment before happily asking. With the Demon Emperor around, he could confirm some details about this Heritage.
"Well, there are some formations set up inside that cut off our sensing. The Inheritance Seed is a seed that a King-Level Expert condenses when their time is near. It encapsulates their entire cultivation and various insights, allowing their Heritage to continue."
"I see. So having this means I essentially gain a lifetime of insights and cultivation from a King-Level Expert? Doesn’t that mean I could immediately become a King-Level expert?" Ren Pingsheng exclaimed in surprise.
"It’s not that simple. Although it contains the cultivation of a King-Level Expert, how much you can improve depends on your own conditions. Generally, you can only reach one major realm at most. If it were limitless improvement, your body would be the first to bear the brunt. Insights have no limits, which is the greatest benefit of the Inheritance Seed."
"So if I fuse with this Inheritance Seed now and enter seclusion for a while, I could become a Supreme Expert, and there wouldn’t be any major side effects? Plus, I would gain the martial insights of a King-Level Expert. That’s quite tempting!"
"Hehe, that’s the advantage of the Inheritance Seed. However, everything has two sides. While this thing can help you improve your cultivation faster and pave a smooth path for you, once you become a King-Level Expert, advancing further will be ten times harder than for those who rely solely on their own efforts. Unless you have an extraordinary encounter at that point, your life may just stop there," the Demon Emperor said with an ambiguous smile.
"That makes sense; everything has its pros and cons. For many people, becoming a King-Level Expert is an unattainable dream; they wouldn’t consider so much. How do I fuse with this?" Ren Pingsheng's interest in the Inheritance Seed had already dimmed.
"It’s simple. Just release your Soul Power, enter the core of this Inheritance Seed, and leave your Soul imprint; it will automatically integrate into your body. This Inheritance Seed is of the Wood Attribute, so those who cultivate Wood Attribute techniques will have better integration."
"Boom..." As soon as he finished speaking, a distant Inheritance Tower trembled lightly. A few minutes later, five figures emerged from the tower and immediately engaged in fierce combat. It was evident that one person was being besieged by several others.
"Is another one obtaining Heritage?" Ren Pingsheng said softly as he watched the person being besieged. The scene just now was very similar to when he obtained the Inheritance Seed. So he was certain that another Inheritance Seed had emerged.
Suddenly, the entire ground shook, and the four Inheritance Towers trembled simultaneously. Then, figures appeared outside the towers; it turned out that four Inheritance Seeds had emerged at the same time.
Counting this, there had already been six Inheritance Seeds that had appeared, which was somewhat exaggerated. It should be noted that in the past, when the Sword King Tomb was opened, having two or three emerge was already considered a lot; most of the time, there was only one.
"Kill! Heritage is mine; hand it over quickly." At this moment, more than twenty people gathered nearby, each one crazily attacking the five who had obtained the Heritage, trying to snatch it away.
"Hmph, Heritage is what I obtained; you all can die!" These people had gone mad with killing, their eyes filled only with thoughts of Heritage. After a few minutes, five people had already lost their lives, blood flowing everywhere. But no one cared about them; those people continued to Battle, and from time to time, more joined from a distance.
"Truly insane!" Ren Pingsheng kept his distance as he saw a martial artist with an arm chopped off still clinging to his opponent without letting go.
At this moment, another Inheritance Tower shook, and then four more people emerged.
"Haha, you ants think you can compete with me? All of you will die!" A Brute laughed loudly, sweeping his Long Sword, like a roaring wind. The four people surrounding him spat blood and retreated, one even being sliced in half. For a moment, his might was unmatched; no one dared to approach.
"I didn't expect him to also obtain an Inheritance Seed." Ren Pingsheng muttered as he watched the powerful display of the Brute. This person was none other than Situ Kong, the strongest among this group.
A few more unwilling individuals charged forward but couldn’t withstand two or three moves before losing their lives. Those who were luckier were heavily injured and no longer had the strength to continue Battle.
"Hehe, overestimating yourselves. Is there anyone else? I haven't killed enough yet!" Situ Kong chuckled, brandishing his Long Sword, turning his head to look around with an air of arrogance as if proclaiming his supremacy.
