Chapter 991: Chapter 964: Legacy_2
Everyone nodded, casting spells as they followed her into the deep depths of the ocean.
Before long, Jiang Fengwu stopped in her tracks and transmitted to everyone, "Zhirui, I need your help protecting us. Make sure the Sea Clan does not discover our presence."
During the process of breaking the Great Array, significant fluctuations of spiritual energy are bound to occur, which could potentially attract the attention of the Sea Clan to come and investigate.
Once the news leaks and the Sea Clan becomes aware, the difficulty of obtaining the opportunities within the formation would skyrocket, possibly even posing a risk of falling.
"Don’t worry." Li Zhirui solemnly responded, looking at Da Qing and others to spread out and completely shield the area of the formation.
After all, they couldn’t contribute much in the process of breaking the formation.
Jiang Fengwu closed her eyes to calm her excited emotions, then transmitted to the Array Masters, "Begin!"
As soon as the order was given, everyone who had already taken their positions acted simultaneously to force the formation to reveal itself before they started to break the Great Array.
Even though they were familiar with the formation, breaking a Seventh Rank Grand Formation was not something that could be achieved quickly.
During the process of breaking the formation, the fluctuations of spiritual energy indeed attracted many from the Sea Clan. Since they were only Fourth Order or Fifth Order, as soon as they showed up, they were eliminated by Li Zhirui, Da Qing, and others, ensuring that the news would not leak.
Under the leadership of Jiang Fengwu, with the assistance of Li Chengshuo and others, dozens of Array Masters spent nearly half a month to finally break the Great Array.
Since they didn’t force their way through violently, the foundation and Array Flags of the formation were relatively intact, requiring only some repairs before they could be used on Mount Wanxian, so Jiang Fengwu arranged for everyone to collect them.
Even if they couldn’t be reused, the materials for making the foundation and Array Flags were not of low grade. Taking them back for refinement could yield some precious Spiritual Objects; after all, it wouldn’t be possible to leave them in this sea region.
After the formation dissipated, what lay inside was finally revealed.
From the outside, it looked like a very primitive Taoist Temple, seemingly typical in layout and modest in scale, not appearing at all like a force capable of setting up a Seventh Rank Grand Formation.
Because the temple was small, only having two sections, and the front courtyard only housed about seven or eight rooms without any apparent danger, it was quickly surveyed by puppets.
According to the current situation, these rooms were likely the living quarters of cultivators, all similarly arranged without any left Spiritual Objects or inheritance.
This discovery greatly disappointed everyone, leading them to have low expectations for what they might gain from this venture.
Luckily, thanks to Jiang Fengwu’s prior promise, even if they returned empty-handed, they would still receive a substantial amount of Spiritual Objects.
"There’s still another section, isn’t there? Maybe the good stuff is all in the back." Li Zhirui said with a smile, leading everyone toward the rear courtyard.
The rear courtyard had even fewer buildings, only five, but they were larger and looked unusual.
To save time, as before, they controlled five puppets to simultaneously push open the doors and enter for exploration.
"This is the ancestral hall, Scripture Pavilion, one looks like a quiet room, the other is empty."
The ancestral hall was quite spacious but empty inside. The plaques of worship were only about twenty in number, seemingly protected by some force that prevented the puppets from seeing what was inscribed on them.
The Scripture Pavilion was the largest, filled with many bookshelves, each bearing numerous Jade Slips, indicating that this mysterious force had a substantial history.
But Li Zhirui did not feel joy at finding a large inheritance, instead his brow was furrowed as he stared at the room directly opposite.
"Jiu, what’s wrong?"
Da Qing asked, "Is there something wrong with this room?"
"Yes, as soon as the puppet entered, I lost contact with it and don’t know the situation inside."
As Li Zhirui was contemplating how to clarify the situation, he saw from the corner of his eye that Jiang Fengwu seemed distracted, taking two unconsciously forward steps.
"Fengwu!" 𝚗𝚘v𝚙𝚞b.𝚌𝚘m
Li Zhirui immediately shouted, reaching out to grab her, and frowned, "What’s wrong with you?"
"The great opportunity I sensed initially is in there!"
Jiang Fengwu turned around, her face firm as she said, "I want to go in!"
Li Zhirui couldn’t help but frown and said, "I’ll accompany you."
Jiang Fengwu did not refuse, after all, having Li Zhirui along would greatly increase safety.
However, when the two tried to enter, they found that no matter how hard they tried, they could not break through the invisible barrier at the entrance. Instead, Jiang Fengwu entered very easily.
"It seems that you can’t accompany me. Since that’s the case, let me go and find out by myself."
With that, Jiang Fengwu turned decisively and entered deeper into the house.
Bang!
The previously opened door also suddenly closed at this moment.
"Dad, will mom encounter any danger?" Li Chengshuo, Li Chengsheng, and Feng Peng asked worriedly.
"I’m not sure either; let’s wait patiently."
Li Zhirui had a vague guess in his heart; could this mysterious room be a place of heritage testing?
But if that was the case, then why couldn’t he enter? Was it because only one person could enter at a time, or was there another reason?
"Why don’t you go to the Scripture Pavilion instead, there’s no need to wait here idly."
Li Zhirui seemed to suddenly remember something and added, "According to the previous promise by Fengwu, pick jade slips that correspond to your grade and quantity."
After all, this peculiar relic had no Spiritual Objects, but he had just controlled a puppet to check several jade slips, and indeed they recorded some kind of Divine Power or other Methods, so he decided to use them to compensate everyone.
This made everyone’s mood much better.
Because now, the Methods recorded in the jade slips were their own to keep, whether to hand over to their families for Contribution Value, or to keep in their own hands.
Meanwhile, Jiang Fengwu, who had entered the mysterious room, suddenly found herself in a Mysterious Space.
The space suddenly displayed basic Array Patterns, accompanied by a sound of primordial Dao tone, urging her to decipher them.
These basic Array Patterns were naturally no problem for Jiang Fengwu, but as time passed, the Array Patterns became more complex and mysterious, and the speed of solving them also slowed down.
Eventually, Seventh Rank Array Patterns appeared!
Fortunately, with her previous experience and accumulation, despite great difficulty and spending a lot of time, Jiang Fengwu managed to decipher them.
"Not bad! To decipher Seventh Rank Array Patterns at the Void Refinement Realm is quite an achievement."
Accompanied by this appreciative voice, an old man’s figure slowly emerged.
"I am Liang Zhuoying, would you like to take me as your master and receive my inheritance?"
Jiang Fengwu did not hesitate for a moment, immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying: "Disciple Jiang Fengwu greets Master!"
"I have left the Primal Spirit Realm ten thousand years ago, and now I am pursuing The Great Tao. The Primal Spirit Realm can no longer accommodate me; I hope that one day you can also take this step and meet with me," Liang Zhuoying said lightly.
The revelation stirred up a storm in Jiang Fengwu’s heart. The Primal Spirit Realm was a Great Thousand World capable of containing the Immortal Realm, but her master said it could not accommodate him? How high must his Realm be!
"Ha ha ha ha ha, my disciple, your current Realm is too low, understanding these matters is still premature. I will leave you an inheritance, but I hope you can carve your own path. After all, those who simulate me thrive, those who break from me progress, and those who mimic me perish! Remember this well!"
With that, Liang Zhuoying extended his hand and a beam of Spirit Light instantly entered Jiang Fengwu’s forehead.
"Cultivate well, and I hope one day to meet my disciple."
With that, Liang Zhuoying disappeared.
In the next moment, Jiang Fengwu also left the Mysterious Space and appeared in an empty room.
In the center of the room, there was a jade platform similar to an Array base, with a jade slip in front of it; grabbing it and reading the contents, she instantly understood a lot.
The jade platform could be regarded as controlling the Taoist Temple’s Array Plate, and the Taoist Temple itself was a super large-scale compound Formation with many functions.
