Inheritance Wall

Rumble!

Like a moving Steel Fortress, one hundred Tarot Beasts charged before Jin Yu with an overwhelming momentum.

Jin Yu could clearly see the Tarot Beasts' already bloodshot Eyes and their sharp, gleaming horns.

He charged forward with his saber raised!

The Golden Void Blade instantly swept across the neck of a Tarot Beast passing by him. Its unstoppable blade aura directly severed most of its head.

Before the gushing scarlet blood could splash onto him, a Tarot Beast hidden behind it had already stomped down toward his head.

It seemed determined to crush this tiny life before it into pulp!

At the same time, the head of another Tarot Beast extended from Jin Yu's right. Its foul breath washed over him, as though it intended to tear his body apart in one bite when he dodged.

The Golden Void Blade turned slightly and plunged directly into the Tarot Beast's eye socket on his right. The surging energy instantly destroyed its entire brain.

Then, he kicked off its enormous head with his right foot and shot into the sky. In that hair's-breadth instant, he passed through the beast hoof stomping down from above. In Unity of Man and Saber, he drilled into the Tarot Beast's neck and burst out through the back of its neck a moment later.

Not a trace of blood stained Jin Yu's body as he continued slaughtering his way toward the beasts behind them.

"Feels good! This is exhilarating!"

As the slaughter continued, Jin Yu felt an unprecedented thrill.

It was a feeling entirely different from the Life-and-Death Battles at Giant Axe Arena and the simulated battles in the Virtual Universe.

This real slaughter, where every strike drew flesh and blood, made every pore on his body seem to open. The killing desire rooted deep in the bones of the Golden Horned Beast filled him with incomparable excitement.

Yet at the same time, his heart remained incomparably calm, and his thoughts leaped faster than ever before.

Back when he had slaughtered the monster tide along the Huangpu River on Earth, Jin Yu had entered a state of comprehending the Laws.

At the time, he had merely thought it was due to the Golden Horned Beast's Talent Amplification for Laws.

But now he understood. He had been born for slaughter, and slaughter allowed him to improve rapidly.

"Looks like I was wrong all along. A peaceful life doesn't suit me. Endless slaughter is the fastest shortcut to rapid growth."

Jin Yu was inwardly stirred, but his state of mind had long reached the First level—Seeing one's true nature. It allowed him to remain absolutely calm even amid the most extreme slaughter.

Slaughter stimulated his will, making it extremely active and allowing him to comprehend the Laws more clearly;

His powerful will and state of mind kept him from being controlled by the desire to kill;

These uniquely favorable conditions made him exceptionally suited to growing through slaughter.

Quiet cultivation could also work, but its speed was not even one-tenth or one-twentieth of the growth he gained through slaughter.

Having completely let go, Jin Yu threw himself heart and soul into the slaughter.

These seemingly incomparably fierce Tarot Beasts were like lambs awaiting slaughter. Their enormous bodies fell one after another.

The hundred Tarot Beasts were gradually frightened out of their wits. No matter how savage their beastly nature was, it could not overcome the fear in their hearts.

That little thing before them was too terrifying!

Only by fleeing could they live a little longer!

Thud!

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

A bull's head flew into the air, spraying blood everywhere.

When the final Tarot Beast collapsed, Jin Yu stood still with his saber in hand, completely spotless.

Looking around, he saw whole and mangled corpses strewn across the vast grassland.

Still unsatisfied, Jin Yu let out a soft breath and slowly sheathed the Golden Void Blade at his left side.

"The first level is too weak. I wonder what the monsters behind it are like. Will they let me kill to my heart's content?"

Licking his lips, Jin Yu silently waited for the AI's judgment.

He had killed these hundred Tarot Beasts with effortless ease!

"Time used: 1 minute 18 seconds. All 100 Tarot Beasts eliminated. First-level trial passed! Congratulations, Jin Yu." A godlike electronic voice echoed across the entire grassland.

"Jin Yu, please enter the portal ahead. You will be teleported out of this space in five seconds. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1..."

Jin Yu entered the portal that had appeared nearby and stepped into a small room. Then his vision blurred. He faintly sensed a ripple of the Law of Space before appearing in a wilderness filled with rocky hills.

"Jin Yu, congratulations on passing the first level. You may choose one inherited secret technique from the Inheritance Wall ahead. The Stone Tablet beside it contains a detailed introduction. You will be forcibly removed after ten days." The electronic voice that echoed between heaven and earth sounded again, then vanished after making its announcement.

Jin Yu frowned and looked ahead as described by the electronic voice.

A gigantic stone wall stood in the wilderness, blotting out the sky and sun. With a sweep of his gaze, he estimated it to be over a thousand kilometers long and more than a hundred kilometers high.

Before the massive stone wall stood another enormous Stone Tablet, over twenty meters wide and a full hundred meters tall.

"Inheritance Wall!"

The three large characters at the top of the Stone Tablet flickered, seeming to contain endless sharpness. Jin Yu's eyes stung when he looked at them.

"So powerful! They actually contain the power of the Law of Space."

In his perception, those three characters were the manifested form of the Law of Space.

"The Inheritance Wall bears the immortal inheritances under the Gan Wu Universe Country. It contains inherited secret techniques of the ten fundamental Laws: gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, time, and space."

"Do not be greedy or overestimate yourself. Remember this well!"

"The following are introductions to the inherited secret techniques:

1. 'Blade of Gold,' a Law of Gold secret technique. Written by the immortal Marquis Beichen. Contains.

2. 'Green Radiance,' a Law of Wood secret technique. Immortal.

3. 'Water Without Limit,' a Law of Water secret technique. Immortal.

4. 'Fire Body Technique.'

"

One powerful Law secret technique after another was inscribed upon the Inheritance Wall as though they were common goods.

Just as the electronic voice had said, it contained secret techniques for all ten fundamental Laws, and all of them had reached the immortal level. The hundreds of secret techniques in different directions truly opened Jin Yu's eyes.

Babata also possessed secret techniques, but there were only five immortal-level Warrior secret techniques. Most of the rest were merely at the World Master level.

They might have been sufficient for ordinary Warriors, but for a genius like Jin Yu, they were somewhat holding him back.

Moreover, their attributes did not match his, making it impossible for Jin Yu to study them as his main secret techniques.

Among these secret techniques, Jin Yu found two that focused on the Law of Gold with space as a supplement. One was "Void Severing Blade," and the other was "Space Crush."

"Void Severing Blade" used the Law of Space as a guide and the Law of Gold as its foundation to unleash an incomparably fierce, supremely masculine strike. It specialized in killing, pressing forward without hesitation.

"Space Crush" used Law of Space movement techniques to transform one's body into countless forms, striking out with a blade from all directions at once, like surging space compressing and crushing enemies into ash.

One was a single-target attack, while the other was a group attack. Of course, that was merely their emphasis. Both secret techniques could actually be used for either single-target or group attacks.

Furthermore, learning secret techniques required comprehending the Law Power and rhythms within them. The words on the surface were merely auxiliary; directly recording and replicating them was simply impossible.

This also crushed any thoughts people might have had of stealing secret techniques on a large scale.
