Thunder Inheritance! (6k)
Unaware that the other Pangolin Monster, which had never been discovered by the Southwest Base City, had already escaped, Yang Yu happily dragged the Monsters materials back into the city.
At this moment, Lu Feng and Thor had already spotted Yang Yu returning through the surveillance system outside the city.
Judging from Yang Yu's bulging backpack and the Elephant Skin Bag he was carrying, they all knew that Yang Yu's haul this time must have been quite substantial.
"Bang!"
The huge Elephant Skin Bag and backpack fell to the ground with a dull thud.
Even though Yang Yu only brought the essential materials, the weight still exceeded Thor and the others' expectations.
"Haha, Xiao Yu, how many Lord Monsters did you kill? Did you slaughter them all?" Thor asked happily as he stepped forward.
"The three publicly known Lord Monster are all here. As for the one hidden in the shadows, we haven't found it yet, but it shouldn't pose much of a threat."
Yang Yu opened his backpack and Elephant Skin Bag. "The most important materials from the Giant Dragon Elephant, the Black-Scaled King Snake, and the Tiger-Headed Bee King are all here. Brother Feng, Brother Lei, these materials are yours."
Although they knew Yang Yu would most likely give them some materials, Lu Feng and Thor didn't expect him to give them all of them.
"Hehe, how could we accept this? After all, it was you, Xiao Yu, who went through so much trouble to kill the Monsters all by yourself. How could we possibly take it all?" Lu Feng said apologetically, but his bright eyes couldn't help but linger on the Elephant Skin Bag.
"Haha, Brother Feng, why are you being so polite? I'm planning to sweep through the surrounding area again and explore those unusual locations. It's quite inconvenient to carry so many Monsters materials. Since you're short on materials to forge equipment, I'll give them all to you. This way, you'll suffer fewer casualties when you defend against the Beast Tide."
Considering the rather meager equipment worn by the soldiers and Martial Artist, Lu Feng didn't stand on ceremony any longer. "Thank you very much Xiao Yu. This has really been a great help to us."
Upon hearing Lu Feng agree to accept, Thor, who had been waiting impatiently, laughed loudly, "Haha, finally time to upgrade our equipment! I wonder how hard the bones of the Giant Dragon Elephant are, and whether the War Blade forged from them will be sharp?"
"Haha, Brother Feng, you guys can ask Old Wang for some tips on crafting equipment using high-level Lord Monster materials. We already have a mature system for utilizing Monsters materials."
Thanks to the massive number of Monsters killed by Yang Yu and the large amount of high-level Monsters materials, the Jiangnan Base City's current level of equipment crafting using Monsters materials is undoubtedly the highest in Huaxia and even the world.
"Yes! This is the first time we've obtained such rare Monsters materials, we should ask about them carefully, otherwise it would be terrible if the materials were damaged." Lu Feng quickly dialed Wang Ying'an's number and made this request.
Wang Ying'an on the other end of the phone naturally cooperated, instructing the person in charge of the Arms Factory to send over a complete set of theoretical knowledge on the use of materials through secure channels.
Watching Thor happily handling the elephant hide and tusks of the Giant Dragon Elephant, Yang Yu was also very happy. "Alright, Brother Lei, these materials will eventually become your weapons, no need to rush."
"Hehe, I was just curious. This Senior Lord Level- level Giant Dragon Elephant was a major threat to our Southwest Base City. I didn't expect you to kill it so easily. And this elephant hide and these tusks are obviously not ordinary materials." Although he knew that the best materials would definitely be supplied to him first, Thor couldn't help but caress the materials in front of him.
After Thor had finished his fun, Lu Feng ordered the Arms Factory in the Southwest Base City to bring all the materials over and began to carefully study the theories sent by the Arms Factory in the Jiangnan Base City to start manufacturing equipment.
After dealing with the Lord Monster entrenched outside the Southwest Base City, Yang Yu chatted with Lu Feng and Thor for a while before continuing their journey.
Thor is about to acquire brand-new weapons and equipment. With his personal strength combined with the army, he will be able to defend the Southwest Base City.
Unless a new high-level Lord-level Monster appears nearby in the near future, or a large number of mid-level or Elementary Lord Level Monsters appear, Yang Yu will likely not come here again very often.
After bidding farewell to Thor and Lu Feng, Yang Yu ascended into the air on his shield, heading towards the place he had previously learned might contain ruins. The distance wasn't too far, about a thousand kilometers.
That was the location of Ailao Mountain before the Grand Nirvana!
As an ancient primeval forest that has existed for hundreds of millions of years, it was a place rarely visited by humans even before the Grand Nirvana.
It is filled with miasma and poisonous gases that have been buried for hundreds of millions of years. Moreover, due to the disordered magnetic field inside, all electronic devices, compasses, and so on will malfunction once you go deep inside.
This has resulted in the fact that the core depths of the Ailao Mountain are virtually untouched by humans, and are inhabited by all sorts of powerful Monsters.
The government only detected something unusual through satellite surveillance.
However, if we're talking about exploring this area, only Yang Yu currently has the capability.
In order to obtain a method to break through to the Planetary Level and systematic cultivation knowledge as soon as possible, Yang Yu naturally came here to explore.
As we know from the Original Work, there are actually many ruins on Earth, but many of them require special conditions to open, and many are extremely dangerous.
Although Yang Yu has now mastered the rudimentary form of a domain and his strength is comparable to that of an ordinary Planetary Level, Yang Yu is still not strong enough to face those truly ancient and dangerous ruins.
Therefore, at this stage, we are mainly exploring. If we make any progress, that would be great, but we won't force it if we don't.
With this calm mindset, Yang Yu quickly traversed a distance of over a thousand kilometers and flew directly to the core of the Ailao Mountain.
Looking down from thousands of meters above, Yang Yu discovered that the Ailao Mountain were entirely hidden in a misty fog, only occasionally revealing their true form under the sunlight.
Descending to a distance of about 100 meters above the Ailao Mountain, Yang Yu began to carefully observe the area below.
At this time, due to the Grand Nirvana, the creatures in the Ailao Mountain had already evolved and mutated into all sorts of Monsters.
Among them, tigers, leopards, apes, and Monsters occupy the top of the food chain in the Ailao Mountain.
Other mutated peacocks, herons, and other Monsters are also frequently seen.
Curiously observing the Monsters below, Yang Yu refrained from attacking them indiscriminately.
After all, the main purpose of this trip is exploration, not Monsters hunting.
However, as Yang Yu ventured deeper into the heart of the Ailao Mountain, he discovered that the miasma and fog below were becoming increasingly dense, making it difficult to see the scene below even from a height of just over ten meters.
It should be noted that Yang Yu currently possesses the physical attributes of Elementary War God Level, and his eyesight is exceptionally strong, yet he still cannot see clearly.
Left with no other option, Yang Yu landed on the ground and began a search.
It must be said that the geographical environment of the Ailao Mountain is indeed very harsh. Here, apart from huge and dense trees, there is thick fog that permeates the area and miasma that can be seen everywhere.
Fortunately, Yang Yu has a strong physique, so he can ignore most miasma and poisonous gases.
If one or two foolish Monsters dare to attack, Yang Yu will use his throwing knives to kill them directly.
They continued their journey.
Yang Yu quickly penetrated deep into the heart of the Ailao Mountain.
Miraculously, there is no fog or miasma here, and even Monsters are rare; the sunlight shines directly onto the ground, a rare occurrence.
Just as Yang Yu was about to go inside to explore, a beam of light suddenly enveloped him!
In a flash of Light Law, Yang Yu vanished from his spot.
When he regained consciousness, Yang Yu found himself in a brightly lit palace.
But this palace has a touch of the unreal.
Yang Yu looked around and also noticed something was wrong.
"Could this be some kind of ruin?" Just as Yang Yu was preparing to explore the place thoroughly, a streak of Purple Lightning suddenly condensed in front of him, and a figure appeared in an instant. This figure only had the outline of a human, but no obvious facial features, and was like a ball of moving light.
This sudden change made Yang Yu stop all his actions. It was best not to make any rash moves in this strange and unpredictable place. Since the other party had managed to capture him here without him noticing, killing him would not be difficult for them either.
Sure enough, the purple light and shadow, which had condensed to be almost as tall as Yang Yu, spoke, "Welcome, lucky little fellow. You are the one who has unlocked this legacy that has slumbered for countless Reincarnation Era!"
"Inheritance?" Yang Yu was overjoyed. He had indeed stumbled into the ruins by accident. However, Yang Yu thought for a moment, "The Reincarnation Era?" This represented no ordinary inheritance.
Nothing that can be connected to reincarnation is simple; it seems he has embarked on an extraordinary legacy.
As expected, the purple figure's next words confirmed Yang Yu's guess. "Little guy, this inheritance was left behind by me when I traveled here. It will only be activated when it detects a creature in the vicinity that meets the requirements; otherwise, it will remain dormant. The only condition for activation is a special soul!"
"A special soul?" Yang Yu's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this. "Isn't it special because my soul was transmigrated and absorbed and merged with the original body's soul?"
"Little one, no matter what extraordinary encounters you've had, or what secrets your soul holds, none of that matters to me. What matters is that your soul perfectly matches the requirements of the legacy I left behind, which is why the wisp of my consciousness here brought you to this special place," the purple figure continued.
"The legacy I leave behind is called the Thunder Inheritance!"
"This is a legacy I specially compiled after traveling through the Three Thousand Dimensional Universe Ocean and passing through your world, based on your cultivation methods. This legacy is not suppressed or blocked by your universe, and it has detailed guidance from the Apprentice Stage to the True God stage and even higher levels. However, due to some special reasons, you can only obtain the true legacy information after passing a test. If you refuse or fail the test, I will erase this memory of yours, expel you from here, and you will forever lose the qualification to obtain this legacy."
"Now, are you willing to accept the test?"
Although the purple figure had no facial features, Yang Yu could detect a clear questioning expression in the contours of its face.
"I do!"
Just kidding. Judging from the purple figure's words, there's no danger to your life even if you refuse or fail the test, so of course you should accept!
Take a gamble, and you might just turn a bicycle into a motorcycle.
Perhaps the native inhabitants of the Primal Universe did not know the meaning of the Three Thousand Dimensional Universe Ocean.
But Yang Yu, as a time traveler, knew this.
Judging from the fact that the purple figure didn't seem to care about the Primal Universe at all, the powerful being who left this figure behind was clearly from the distant Origin Continent!
Since the Primal Universe is just one of the Three Thousand Dimensional Universe Ocean, one can imagine how powerful such a being must be to be able to freely travel between the Universe Ocean and the Origin Continent!
He is at least much stronger than a third-rate God King like Zuoshanke.
After all, even the Zuoshanke had to be extremely cautious when he came to the Primal Universe, fearing that he would be suppressed.
However, this unknown and mysterious powerful being directly left behind a legacy leading to the realm of True God and above, without any concern about being suppressed by the Primal Universe.
Therefore, his power must surpass that of the Primal Universe.
Such a being actually left behind a legacy, and thoughtfully, it starts from the Apprentice Stage, requiring a special soul—it's practically made for Yang Yu.
"Alright! Now, let the test begin!"
With a wave of his hand, the purple figure caused the world to shift once more. By the time Yang Yu could see clearly what was in front of him, he was already in an illusory room.
Looking around, Yang Yu realized that he was now completely floating in mid-air, and all his armor and weapons were gone.
Looking at myself, I realized that I was now in a soul state, or rather, in the form of a consciousness.
Before Yang Yu could figure out what was going on, a blinding Purple Lightning pierced into Yang Yu brow.
"Ah!!!"
A bolt of Thunder was forcibly shoved into Yang Yu's consciousness, causing him to scream in agony.
This excruciating pain of having his soul torn apart reminded Yang Yu of the time when the original owner of this body was tormented by Mental Force.
But the pain at this moment is hundreds or thousands of times worse than the headache caused by releasing Mental Force!
Even in his conscious form, Yang Yu collapsed to the ground in agony, writhing and convulsing.
As the 'Purple Lightning' coursed through his consciousness, Yang Yu was in so much pain that he nearly lost consciousness.
But a sliver of reason kept Yang Yu gritting his teeth and persevering.
"Tolerate!"
To encounter such an incredible opportunity, one must endure even the greatest pain!
The last vestiges of consciousness made Yang Yu unwilling to give up no matter what.
As time passed and the Thunder continued to rage, Yang Yu felt the pain gradually subside.
As the Purple Lightning began to penetrate deeper into Yang Yu's consciousness.
Gradually, the original body's memories that Yang Yu had devoured and absorbed began to 'float' out.
As if it had spotted something delicious, the Thunder circulated through Yang Yu's consciousness one last time before disappearing directly into this illusory memory!
Only then did Yang Yu's pain completely subside.
Once his consciousness returned slightly, Yang Yu focused his mind and entered his Consciousness Sea.
Deep within the Consciousness Sea, in the originally illusory memories of the original body, a bright purple light was found floating there.
Focus your attention on this point of light.
"Boom!"
Yang Yu's entire consciousness was instantly drawn into this point of light.
At this moment, the purple figure outside showed an extremely surprised expression, but then smiled mysteriously and disappeared.
A distant Origin Continent.
In a vast, unknown, and mysterious palace, a figure sitting cross-legged opened his eyes.
His eyes were like two moving Thunder Xingchen, each blink bringing endless Xingchen to an end.
"That inheritance has finally been triggered, and it seems to be a very interesting little guy. I really look forward to meeting you properly."
Once it was confirmed that Yang Yu had passed the test and perfectly integrated the inheritance, the mysterious man closed his eyes again and quietly sat cross-legged in meditation.
Yang Yu, standing within the purple light, stared in awe at the enormous, illusory Inheritance Palace surrounding him.
From the moment his consciousness entered the purple light spot, Yang Yu knew it had passed the test.
This test can be very difficult, but it can also be very simple.
The key to success lies in the soul!
This refers to the special soul that the purple figure mentioned at the beginning.
Yang Yu didn't know if there were any other special souls that could pass the test, but he was certain that his soul, which had merged with the original owner's memories after traversing time and space, could pass the test!
"What a remarkable legacy!"
"They actually placed the inherited content into another illusory memory; no wonder they were able to evade the detection of the Primal Universe."
Just as Yang Yu was marveling at this, an Inheritance Secret Technique suddenly appeared in his soul!
"Soul Devour!"
After defeating an enemy, you can use this Secret Technique to absorb the True Spirit within their soul!
After absorption, one can strengthen their own soul and enhance their talent and comprehension, as well as acquire all of the enemy's memories. Enemies whose True Spirit has been absorbed will also lose the right to reincarnation and die completely!
As if he were born with the ability, when this Inheritance Secret Technique appeared in Yang Yu's consciousness, Yang Yu knew that he could easily perform it!
It's as instinctive as eating and drinking!
Moreover, as Yang Yu gained a deeper understanding of this Secret Technique, he also learned that when he absorbed enough True Spirit and his own soul grew to a certain level, he could split off a Soul Sub-body. With this Soul Sub-body, he could perform the body-seizing secret technique and have Clone was completely his own!
"It seems to be a composite Secret Technique, with many more functions to explore." After gaining a preliminary understanding of the Secret Technique's contents, Yang Yu knew that devouring and refining the enemy's True Spirit was only its initial Secret Technique!
"My strength is still very weak. I can only activate this one Secret Technique from my inheritance. Judging from the Inheritance Palace that exists in my illusory memories, there are many other Inheritance Secret Technique! Their functions must be equally heaven-defying!"
At this moment, Yang Yu fully regained consciousness. Then, with a thought, he temporarily left the Inheritance Palace that was in the original body's illusory memories and returned to his own Consciousness Sea.
Afterwards, he left his Consciousness Sea and returned to reality.
Yang Yu then realized that he was back in the place where he had disappeared.
Looking around at the still silent surroundings, Yang Yu looked up at the position of the sun in the sky and found that it had hardly changed since it disappeared!
This also means that the time Yang Yu disappeared just now seems to have never happened!
"What an unbelievable method! Even True God Reverse Time and Space wouldn't be able to detect such a trivial trick left behind by an existence."
I confirmed once again that the Inheritance Palace within my illusory memories in my Consciousness Sea consciousness was still intact.
Yang Yu smiled happily, "Finally, I've obtained the true meaning of inheritance!"
Moreover, although this inheritance has only yielded a Secret Technique so far, nothing substantial has been obtained yet.
But this Secret Technique alone, which can devour the enemy's True Spirit and enhance one's own soul and comprehension, is invaluable!
The so-called Yunmo Planet Inheritance is utterly insignificant compared to this kind of inheritance.
Feeling the almost endless legacy within the deep corridors of the Inheritance Palace, Yang Yu felt a sense of relief.
This unexpected gain can be said to have given him the real capital to rise to prominence!
However, this was not the place to carefully study the inheritance. Yang Yu carefully stepped on the shield and headed towards the area where the sunlight could reach. He found that the terrain was just a little unusual, and there was nothing else unusual about it.
Or perhaps there are relics here, but I don't meet the conditions to open them.
However, Yang Yu was not discouraged at all, as the Thunder Inheritance he had just acquired was already enough for him to use.
After confirming that there were no other abnormalities in the surroundings, Yang Yu directly ascended into the air using his shield, and flew directly towards the Jiangnan Base City.
Now that we've cleared out all the Lord Monster outside the Base City, things should be much easier from now on. It's a good time to study the new inheritance we just acquired.
It took Yang Yu less than an hour to get back to Jiangnan Base City. After saying goodbye to Yang Yu and Wang Ying'a Jia Yi, he went home.
After chatting with his grandfather and Wang Lin for a while, they went to his private rest room on the rooftop.
After sitting cross-legged on the bed, he began to concentrate on studying the Thunder Inheritance.
As consciousness entered the Inheritance Palace within illusory memories.
Yang Yu felt as if he were in another dimension.
Inside the illusory Inheritance Palace, Yang Yu found that he could not yet approach the dimly lit corridor. He could only try to open the box on the table in the center of the palace to see what was inside.
After trying for most of the day, Yang Yu finally took a book out of the box:
The Thunder Inheritance General Outline!
Looking at the illusory book in his hands, Yang Yu tried to turn the pages, but found that he could only open a few pages at the beginning.
After confirming that he could no longer open it, Yang Yu knew that this was probably all the inheritance he could obtain before Planetary Level.
Too.
In cosmic terms, I am currently just an apprentice, extremely weak in both physical strength and Soul Power. I haven't even experienced the first life evolution, so it's normal that my weak Soul Power can't see what comes next.
Ignoring the subsequent inheritance, Yang Yu sat down in the Illusion Palace and began to concentrate on studying the <Thunder Inheritance General Outline>.
Holding the book in his hands and examining it closely, Yang Yu discovered that although the book didn't seem thick on the surface, the contents contained in just the pages that could be turned were already quite extensive.
No wonder it's recorded and passed down in the form of books; with this method, there's certainly no need to worry about insufficient records for information transmission.
After spending most of the day reading through all the readable parts of the book, Yang Yu finally gained a general understanding of the Thunder Inheritance.
Just as Yang Yu had initially guessed, the mysterious powerhouse who left behind this This Inheritance did indeed come from the Origin Continent, and it inadvertently mentioned many cultivation paths above the True God stage of the Primal Universe.
Strangely, Yang Yu was able to learn about these contents very easily, as if the Primal Universe could not truly block the contents of this Inheritance Palace located in Yang Yu's illusory memories.
This made Yang Yu even more curious about the methods of this mysterious expert.
The ability to perfectly evade the detection of the Primal Universe is a feat that even a typical God King could not accomplish.
Let's return to the books of tradition.
Yang Yu learned from this that in order to further cultivate this inheritance, he needed to transform his own Genetic Origin Energy and Spiritual Force into 'Thunder Origin Energy' and 'Thunder Spiritual Force'.
The book clearly states that without converting Origin Energy and Mental Force, it will be impossible to continue the subsequent cultivation.
This also shows that this This Inheritance seems to be specifically designed for those in the Apprentice Stage.
Because many powerful forces with even a little bit of foundation have special methods for cultivating Genetic Origin Energy and Spiritual Force, which they can transform into Genetic Origin Energy and Spiritual Force unique to their own lineage.
For example, the Mental Force of Spirit Reader from the Yunmo Planet Lineage can be transformed into Blood-Red Spiritual Force through a special method, and they specialize in the Secret Technique Mental Force techniques of the Yunmo Planet Lineage.
"Thunder Spiritual Force," Yang Yu murmured, as he exited the Illusion Palace and returned to the real world.
