Only My Way

After refolding Duan Qidong's letter and putting it back into the box, Ling Wuyuan took out the map that had been placed with the letter.

He understood that this was the so-called second-stage treasure hunt mission.

The content depicted on it was the detailed address and actual access methods to the secret vault mentioned in the letter.

However...

The address was a bit far.

Far away, located directly beneath the former site of the Azure Lake White Stream Palace in Yunling Prefecture.

Ling Wuyuan couldn't go there now for sure.

He was too young.

A twelve-year-old kid daring to cross continents alone was practically asking for a quick death...

It was a classic case of fearing he didn't look conspicuous enough.

Moreover,

Four thousand years was indeed a long time, and no one knew what might have happened in between.

There were simply too many variables along the way...

For example, Duan Qidong himself had made it clear in the letter that the seeds of sect revival he had left outside were not limited to the spatial ring in Ling Wuyuan's hand.

In these four thousand long years,

the rest of the inheritance might have already been obtained by others.

And those people, after obtaining a portion of the Azure Lake White Stream Palace's inheritance, would naturally be very likely to go to the former site of the Azure Lake White Stream Palace and empty out the so-called secret vault...

Therefore, Ling Wuyuan didn't have too many expectations for the secret vault of the Azure Lake White Stream Palace, which was said to hold the sect's highest secrets and ultimate treasures.

He felt that being able to successfully obtain some of the legacy left behind by the Azure Lake White Stream Palace was already extremely lucky.

He wouldn't have too many expectations for the remaining things.

The higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment, right?

His ability to find this treasure was itself based on many accidental reasons.

He felt that it would be better to wait until he had grown to a certain extent before going to take a look at that so-called secret vault.

If there was really something there, then that would naturally be excellent.

If the things had already been taken away, then he wouldn't be too disappointed either.

If I get it, it's my luck; if I lose it, it's my fate.

As for the current situation at hand.

Well... although he was a little surprised that his treasure hunt actually had a so-called second stage,

he quickly accepted reality.

As for why the Azure Lake White Stream Palace would choose to place the so-called secret vault, their sect's ultimate inheritance, directly beneath the Azure Lake White Stream Palace, Ling Wuyuan felt that they should have been considering safety.

In order to prevent the sect's ultimate inheritance from falling into the hands of outsiders before the sect had any problems, they chose to hide the things in a place that was hidden enough but that they could still watch over at any time.

As long as the Azure Lake White Stream Palace hadn't had any problems,

then no outsider could get their hands on those things.

It seemed.

That apart from that so-called ultimate inheritance, all the remaining legacy of the Azure Lake White Stream Palace, including but not limited to the spatial ring in Ling Wuyuan's hand, was actually something that could be discarded in the eyes of the rulers of the Azure Lake White Stream Palace, and even if the things were obtained by enemy forces, it wouldn't matter much, at most it would be a major loss, but it wouldn't hurt the foundation or directly injure the bones.

Of course.

If something really happened to the Azure Lake White Stream Palace, and the seeds of revival left outside and the secret vault were all found by the enemy along the vine,

they would actually only be able to admit defeat.

After all, they had already tried their best to preserve their own inheritance...

At this moment, after roughly understanding the current situation and the thoughts and ideas of the Azure Lake White Stream Palace, Ling Wuyuan quickly sorted out most of the books and put them back into the spatial ring.

Leaving only a few secret manuals that he felt he needed to focus on cultivating for a long time in the future.

Several precious secret manuals that even if the White Crow Gang bankrupted themselves, they wouldn't be able to come up with.

The newest and most complete novels are first published on Liu 9 Shu Ba!

[Flying Swallow Revolving Steps - Top-Grade Body Technique for the Qi Nourishment Realm]: This body technique is extremely good at engaging in close-quarters combat with enemies, and after cultivating to a certain level, it can also allow the cultivator to achieve short-term flight and short-term hovering.

[Flowing Cloud Stream Fist - Top-Grade Fist Technique for the Source Gathering Realm]: A total of fifty-nine fist moves, any single fist move taken out alone wouldn't be considered outstanding among the fist techniques of the Source Gathering Realm, but the biggest advantage of this set of fist techniques is that the connection between the fist moves is exceptionally smooth, each move can complement each other, and many times the victim only needs to be hit to endure the entire set of fist techniques, thereby being beaten to death alive.

[Jackal Tiger Leopard Body Tempering Art - Top-Grade Cultivation Method for the Source Gathering Realm]: During cultivation, it requires consuming a large amount of flesh and bones of fierce beasts and demon beasts, and even various precious medicinal materials. Once cultivation is completed, not only can one obtain an extremely agile body with the strength of steel and iron bones, but one can also obtain a certain degree of beastly intuition, allowing one to avoid danger to a certain extent in advance.

[Gentle Breeze White Stream Body - Top-Grade Cultivation Method for the Source Gathering Realm]: One of the pre-requisite martial arts for the Azure Lake White Stream Palace's highest cultivation secret, [Profound Intent Realm Cultivation Method - Celestial Astral White Stream Golden Body]. After cultivating to great success, not only is the physical fitness far stronger than ordinary cultivators of the same level, but the body can also freely unload various external forces that hit one's body, allowing oneself to be completely unharmed even in the face of swords and blades.

[Body Refining Realm], [Bone Forging Realm], [Blood Strengthening Realm], [Organ Strengthening Realm], after these [Four Realms of Body Refining], is the [Qi Nourishment Realm], and according to what Ling Wuyuan knows, the leader of the White Crow Gang is an existence of this level.

Looking around the surrounding towns.

A cultivator of this level can be completely called a powerful local tyrant.

He can easily destroy an ordinary town single-handedly.

Further up is the [Source Gathering Realm], for a powerhouse of this level, the power is no longer limited to the town area, and it is fully capable of continuing to extend its power to higher places.

Even if thrown to Black Stone City.

They can serve as the backbone of various large forces.

The Pei family back then became a large family in Black Stone City as a matter of course because they possessed a cultivator of this level.

Continuing upwards are the [Spirit Nurturing Realm] and [Profound Intent Realm] that the Pei family could not reach back then.

The former represents someone who can be called a big figure throughout the entire [Prefecture], while the latter represents someone who can become the foundation and backbone of the entire [Kingdom].

And the Azure Lake White Stream Palace, which possessed the [Profound Intent Realm Cultivation Method - Celestial Astral White Stream Golden Body], was one of the most powerful sects in the entire [Southern Mist Kingdom] when its power was at its peak.

It's just that, even so, human power has its limits after all, and the Azure Lake White Stream Palace ultimately did not withstand the滔天storm caused by the change of dynasties, and became one of the countless capsizers in the surging waves...

At this moment.

As the lucky one who inherited some of the legacy of the Azure Lake White Stream Palace.

Even if he only inherited a very small part, Ling Wuyuan was undoubtedly a big winner!
