Heaven Piercing Sword Scar, Suanni Claw Mark, Another Inheritance

With Lu Qing's current cultivation level, it would be incredibly fast for him to urge his Golden Shuttle here.

He quickly swept through one large state after another.

Not long after, he suddenly exclaimed "Eh!" and stopped, looking down.

"Young Master Lu, what's wrong?"

Lin Zhi Rui was marveling at the speed of the Golden Shuttle when he saw Lu Qing stop and couldn't help but ask.

But Lu Qing was just looking down, his expression somewhat strange.

He couldn't help but lean out and look down, and then his body trembled.

"Isn't this Azure Dragon Pass? We've arrived here so quickly. No, it looks like Azure Dragon City!"

Lin Zhi Rui's eyes widened suddenly, partly from shock at how quickly they had arrived at Azure Dragon Pass, but even more so from the awe he felt at the scene before him.

Below, the massive Azure Dragon City lay prostrate on the earth.

However, from their position, they could see that the outline of the entire Azure Dragon City was quite peculiar.

At first glance, it looks very much like the claw of a gigantic Strange Beast, imprinted on the flat ground.

Not far from Azure Dragon City, beyond the bridge, on the Azure Dragon Mountain Range, there is a straight crevice stretching for hundreds of miles, running through the mountain range.

The gap resembled a sword mark, as if countless years ago, someone unleashed a sword aura that cleaved the entire Azure Dragon Mountain Range in Waist Severing!

"This, this..."

Lin Zhi Rui was speechless for a moment as he looked at the shocking scene below.

He never imagined that Azure Dragon City and One Line Sky Gorge, viewed from high above, would present such a breathtaking scene.

Looking at the scenery below, Lu Qing felt even more than Lin Zhi Rui.

In a daze, he seemed to see a man and a beast fighting countless millions of years ago.

One of them unleashed a towering sword aura, while the other unleashed a terrifying claw strike.

The sword energy clashed with the claw marks, neither gaining the upper hand, and finally fell to the ground.

The sword energy cleaved the Azure Dragon Mountain Range in Waist Severing, and the claw mark left an immeasurably vast imprint on the ground.

Even after so many years, the sword marks and claw marks remain, untouched by time.

"These sword marks and claw marks must have been left by an existence with an extremely high level of cultivation. At the very least, they must have been terrifyingly powerful individuals who had walked a very far path in the Nascent Soul Realm."

It's very likely that they are not among the strongest beings in this world.

Feeling the ancient charm emanating from the sword marks and claw marks, Lu Qing thought to himself.

After the Golden Core Nine Revolutions, the next breakthrough is the mysterious and unpredictable Primordial Spirit realm.

The Nascent Soul Realm is further divided into nine tribulations. Each tribulation overcome results in a transformation.

However, according to the inheritance left by the Li Fire Sect and the Cold Water Palace, there is no concept of the Nascent Soul Nine Tribulations.

Even in the legacy they left behind, the highest level one could cultivate to was the initial stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.

Further cultivation will require you to explore on your own.

Even the founders of these major immortal cultivation sects were only at the initial stage of the Nascent Soul Realm at most.

According to Yan, in the Ancient Cultivation Era, although the strength of the Nascent Soul Great Power varied, the difference was not too outrageous.

It is conceivable that most of the Nascent Soul Great Power in the Ancient Cultivation Era were at most at the level of the first or second tribulation of the Primordial Spirit.

Naturally, they would not know that the entire Nascent Soul Realm actually has as many as nine tribulations.

Lu Qing learned about the concept of the Nascent Soul Nine Tribulations from the cultivation techniques and notes left behind by the Gray Robe Man and his fellow Senior Brother.

The claw marks and One Line Sky Sword Scar in Azure Dragon City are so exaggerated.

Even after countless millennia, it has not been erased and still faintly reveals an ancient and rustic charm.

Clearly, this is not something a cultivator at the first or second stage of the Primordial Spirit could accomplish.

"Unexpectedly, tens of thousands of years have passed, and the previous Cultivation Era has vanished into thin air, yet these sword marks and claw marks remain unchanged."

Li Fire Cauldron, "Yan" suddenly uttered a sigh.

Lu Qing's heart skipped a beat. "'Yan' Senior, do you know the origin of these sword marks and claw marks?"

"Of course I don't know."

Unexpectedly, "Yan" shook his head.

"These sword marks and claw marks have existed for countless millennia. In any case, they were already here at the beginning of the Cultivation Era."

But no one knows how long they have existed, or who left them behind.

All that is known is that they all possess a mysterious power, seemingly allowing them to maintain their current appearance forever, without changing.

Lu Qing was not surprised to hear Yan's answer.

When he last came to Central Province, he had already used his Supernatural Ability to observe the One Line Sky Gorge.

They knew that those were sword marks left by a mysterious powerful figure from over 100,000 years ago.

The last Cultivation Era was only 30,000 years ago, so naturally they wouldn't know the origin of these sword marks and claw marks.

However, at the time, he was in the middle of it and could only see part of the sword mark; the claw marks were even more impossible to observe.

It was nowhere near as clear as it is now, where one can see the whole picture at a glance.

"Young master, these sword marks and claw marks were extremely famous in the Ancient Cultivation Era."

Almost every cultivator who has achieved mastery and is able to fly will come to pay homage to him.

Legend has it that a powerful being at the Nascent Soul Realm once comprehended an extraordinary inheritance from it.

Young sir, your talent is extraordinary. If you were to study it carefully, you might also gain something from it.

The sound of "Yan" echoed in Lu Qing's mind.

"Does it contain some extraordinary inheritance?" Lu Qing looked down.

"I wonder if my Supernatural Ability can reveal any clues."

Lu Qing sensed the faint, ancient meaning emanating from the sword marks and claw prints, and immediately activated his Supernatural Ability, looking down.

The first thing he looked at was the huge claw mark where Azure Dragon City was located.

After looking for a while, nothing unusual appeared in my field of vision.

Lu Qing wasn't in a hurry and continued to keep an eye on it.

Seeing Lu Qing's solemn expression, Lin Zhi Rui, though unaware of the reason, dared not disturb him and waited quietly.

Fifteen minutes later, Lu Qing finally sensed a change in his field of vision.

A dense, almost tangible, blackish purple Supernatural Ability emerged from the giant claw mark.

Immediately afterwards, several notes of information floated out from it.

"Still purple?"

Lu Qing was slightly taken aback when he saw the Supernatural Ability light emanating from the claw mark.

Throughout his history, the highest level of Supernatural Ability light he has emitted when Supernatural Ability objects has always been purple.

I thought that this time, when I examined this ancient claw mark, it would show a different color, but I didn't expect it to still be purple.

"Could it be that the highest level of Supernatural Ability light that Supernatural Ability be manifested is purple?"

A thought involuntarily surfaced in Lu Qing's mind.

However, these were minor matters, and he quickly put them aside, focusing his attention on the messages on the notes.

[Suanni Claw Mark: Imprint left by the Five Tribulations Strange Beast "Suanni".]

[The Suanni Strange Beast: one of the nine sons of the Nine Tribulations Strange Beast "Ancestral Dragon," born as Nascent Soul Realm Strange Beast, exceptionally powerful.]

[Ten thousand years ago, in the Ancient Era, the Suanni traveled far and wide, and sparred with a mysterious powerful figure in this realm, leaving behind this paw print.]

[Have you discovered the underlying meaning and are you ready to download and simulate it?]

"The Strange Beast Suanni, a Five Tribulations Strange Beast!"

When Lu Qing saw the contents of those notes, he was deeply shocked.

He was right; the claw mark was indeed left by a powerful Nascent Soul Realm Strange Beast Suanni Strange Beast.

and...

"The Nine Tribulations Strange Beast ' Ancestral Dragon,' one of its nine sons?"

Lu Qing felt that just a few words on the note contained a wealth of information.

After pondering for a while, he finally focused his gaze on the One Line Sky Sword Scar.

As for the meaning and inheritance on the [Suanni Claw Mark], he was not in a hurry to download and simulate it.

Having gained experience this time, Lu Qing was even more calm and composed. After staring at the huge sword mark for more than a quarter of an hour, an equally dense purple Supernatural Ability light appeared.

Several notes of information floated out.

[The Heaven Piercing Sword Scar: A sword mark left by the mysterious and powerful Daoist "Po Tian" at the Nascent Soul Six Tribulations.]

["Po Tian" Daoist: An ancient powerhouse, the founder of the Heaven Piercing Sword Sect. Ten thousand years ago, he was already a powerhouse at the Nascent Soul Six Tribulations.]

[Ten thousand years ago, in the Ancient Era, the Daoist "Po Tian" traveled far and wide, and by chance encountered Suanni, the son of the "Ancestral Dragon." They exchanged blows and discussed Dao in this realm, leaving behind this sword mark.]

[Have you discovered the underlying meaning and are you ready to download and simulate it?]

"The Heaven Piercing Taoist, Nascent Soul Six Tribulations expert!"

Lu Qing was also shocked after reading the note.

Unexpectedly, the one who left the sword mark was of a higher realm, a powerful being at the Nascent Soul Six Tribulations.

More importantly, both the "Po Tian" Daoist and the Strange Beast Suanni had such cultivation levels 100,000 years ago.

Now, 100,000 years have passed, and heaven knows how powerful they have become.

After sighing for a while, Lu Qing looked at the note that appeared on the Heaven Piercing Sword Scar and chose to download it.

[Download in progress, current progress 1%, 2%, 3%... 98%, 99%, 100%.]

[Download complete. Would you like to start the simulation?]

Lu Qing chose simulation.

[Simulation in progress, current progress: 1%, 2%, 3%... 98%, 99%, 100%.]

[Simulation complete. Would you like to proceed with the learning?]

This time, however, Lu Qing did not choose to study directly.

After all, this is a legacy related to a powerful being at the Nascent Soul Six Tribulations, and it is no small matter.

He was currently high in the sky. If the inheritance was too vast and affected his mind, causing him to lose control of the Golden Flying Boat and fall from the sky, that would be a real problem.

So he wasn't in a hurry to learn, but instead looked at the huge claw mark again and chose to download it.

Not long after, the meaning of the giant claw mark was inherited and the simulation was completed.

Lu Qing piloted the Golden Shuttle, taking Lin Zhi Rui with him, and landed on a mountain peak in the Azure Dragon Mountain Range below before putting the Golden Shuttle away.

"Young Master Lu, what's going on..." Lin Zhi Rui looked puzzled.

"I just observed the sword marks and claw marks from the sky and gained some insights. I need to study them further, so I would Zhi Rui could Protector me."

Lu Qing gave a brief explanation, then closed his eyes.

"Did you gain any insight from observing those sword marks and claw marks?"

Lin Zhi Rui was shocked upon hearing this.

He had seen the sword marks and claw marks high in the sky earlier.

But aside from being deeply shocked, he didn't gain any special insights.

But now Lu Qing says he has gained some insights and wants to temporarily go into seclusion to comprehend them? Lin Zhi Rui could only sigh inwardly as he watched Lu Qing close his eyes and begin his meditation.

Indeed, the difference in talent between him and Young Master Lu was immeasurable.

Faced with the same opportunity, Lu Qing was able to gain some insights, while he gained nothing.

After sighing for a while, Lin Zhi Rui had no choice but to sit down cross-legged as well and wait quietly to the side.

For Lu Qing to be so eager to go into seclusion to comprehend it, it must be an extraordinary insight.

What practitioners value most is their own spiritual practice.

He dared not urge Lu Qing at this time.

"Sure enough, the young master was able to gain some insight from those sword marks and claw marks."

In the Ancient Cultivation Era, those Nascent Soul Great Power were able to gain insights from it.

The young master's talent for cultivation far surpasses theirs; how could he possibly have gained nothing?

Li Fire Cauldron, "Yan" smiled as he saw Lu Qing enter a state of enlightenment.

At the same time, it also secretly became alert and Protector Lu Qing.

Although Lin Zhi Rui wouldn't dare to lay a hand on Lu Qing, it didn't want to let its guard down.

Lu Qing was naturally unaware of Lin Zhi Rui's and "Yan's" thoughts.

He had already activated his Supernatural Ability and retrieved the two copies of the inheritance that he could still download and simulate.

First, he focused his attention on the inheritance of the Heaven Piercing Sword Scar and chose to study it.

Immediately afterwards, he felt a jolt in his mind and found himself in a strange space.

The next moment, an incredibly shocking scene appeared before him.

He stood tall, seemingly suspended in mid-air, holding an ordinary iron sword in his hand.

Before him lay a gigantic Strange Beast resembling a lion, lazily lying on the clouds.

Just as Lu Qing was surprised, the Strange Beast suddenly spoke, "Since that's the case, then I, your humble servant, will spar with you."

Having said that, the Strange Beast raised one of its front paws and casually swung it. A condensed claw mark, tracing an arcane trajectory, flew towards him.

The power emanating from that claw mark was terrifying.

Space itself seemed to freeze, as if a world of its own was imprinted upon Lu Qing.

Lu Qing was horrified; such an attack was simply beyond his ability to withstand.

"Haha, I've heard Suanni Your Highness Suanni once received a profound and unique cultivation technique tailored to your needs from your father. I'd like to have a good experience with it."

The voice came from Lu Qing's mouth, but it was not his own voice at all.

Lu Qing was startled at first, but quickly recovered.

This body he is in right now does not belong to him.

He must have possessed the body of that "Po Tian" Daoist.

Realizing this, Lu Qing immediately focused his mind and concentrated on sensing the sensation.

Sure enough, the next moment, he felt his body move involuntarily.

Then, with a flick of his wrist, he unleashed an incomparably powerful sword aura, strong enough to cleave through everything, to meet the mysterious claw mark.

Boom! The sword energy collided with the claw mark, unleashing boundless power. Even space itself was completely torn apart, revealing terrifying black cracks.

In the end, the sword energy and claw marks remained locked in a stalemate for a long time before their power was exhausted.

It tumbled to either side and fell to the ground below.

The claw marks left an enormous imprint on the earth.

The sword energy then Waist Severing!
