At the mountain peak,
Zhang Qingyuan and the Old Ancestor Murong spoke for a long while,
but their words drifted away with the wind and vanished between heaven and earth. Perhaps only the heavens knew what exactly they had discussed.
"Then I'll have to trouble you greatly, old brother!"
"The Barren Sea is undergoing tremendous changes. By then, such a place will surely be a mixed bag. Old brother, you must be careful on the way!"
At the mountain peak,
Zhang Qingyuan cupped his hands toward the Old Ancestor Murong and earnestly advised him.
"No need for courtesy. I was going to head to the Barren Sea anyway. Besides, with the rewards you have given me, perhaps this old man may even rise another level before my lifespan runs out. So long as I do not deliberately court death, there are not many dangers in the Barren Sea that can threaten me."
The Old Ancestor Murong raised the Spatial Ring in his hand, gratitude on his face along with a measure of confidence.
Inside,
was a Jade Slip Zhang Qingyuan had given him containing insights into the path of cultivation ahead.
Although Zhang Qingyuan had not had the time to organize and record his own cultivation insights, he had slain no small number of stronger cultivators over the years and gained a lot. Within were cultivation records and insights from many peak Cave True Realm cultivators, Half-step Myriad Transformations cultivators, Myriad Transformations Realm cultivators, and others.
Though the cultivation experience of others could not be directly applied to oneself, it could undoubtedly serve as stones from other mountains to polish one's jade.
For the Old Ancestor Murong, whose ancestral legacy was weak and who had no path ahead to draw lessons from, such an inheritance was undoubtedly an excellent reward.
