"Greetings, esteemed seniors."
Lin An cupped his hands in greeting.
"Young friend, there's no need to be so polite. If you have no further questions, then let's set off now," Li Tan said with a smile.
Lin An nodded, and then left with Li Tan and the other two.
Soon, the four of them arrived at the forbidden area of the Li Clan, and when they arrived, there were already quite a few people there.
"Young friend, these are the people from my Li Clan who will be entering the Land of Inheritance this time. Her name is Li Meng, the daughter of Qiyuan, and also one of the disciples of our Western Severance Region Domain Lord."
Li Tan pointed to a woman in front of him and introduced her, " Meng'er, this is my Lin An, and also an honored guest of the Li Clan."
" Lin An greets Miss Li Meng," Lin An said, bowing slightly.
"Young Master Lin, you're too kind. I should thank you for your help to the Li Clan," Li Meng returned the greeting.
"Alright, you young people can chat as you please. Will young Lin An accompany Meng'er this time as we enter the Land of Inheritance?" Li Tan said with a smile. "This old man needs to go and make some preparations first."
"Now that the Land of Inheritance is about to open, you can take this item now, senior." Lin An said, taking out the Jade Crescent.
Li Tan smiled and nodded, then took the Jade Crescent and left.
"Is Young Master Lin from the Eastern Extremity Region?" Li Meng asked with a smile after Li Tan left.
"That's right. I also encountered those three by chance in the Eastern Extremity Region. Those three were severely injured by the Li Clan back then, and their strength was reduced to less than one-tenth. Otherwise, I would have had difficulty killing them. In a way, I got lucky." Lin An said with a smile.
"Young Master Lin is too kind. If it weren't for your help, my Li Clan would never have been able to take revenge."
As Li Meng spoke, she looked into the distance and said, "Since Young Master Lin is from the Eastern Extremity Region, he should know about Tao Yan and Bai Zixuan."
Lin An followed the gaze of the other party and saw that there were ten people gathered there, all of them were experts at the Sovereign Realm, but he did not recognize any of them.
It's likely that Tao Yan and Bai Zixuan, whom Li Meng mentioned, were among them, and these two are quite famous in the Eastern Extremity Region.
"I've been in seclusion cultivating, so I haven't heard of it before," Lin An said, shaking his head.
Li Meng was surprised. Given the other party's cultivation level as Sovereign Realm expert and his status as a formation master, it was rather strange that she had never heard of Tao Yan and Bai Zixuan.
"In that case, let me introduce these people to you, young master. These ten are all renowned array masters from the Five Regions..."
Li Meng then introduced the ten people to Lin An, who then understood why there were other outsiders besides him at the Li Clan's Land of Inheritance.
"This Heavenly Treasure Pavilion certainly knows how to do business. Although they didn't make the Li Clan pay any jade crystals, they directly took away ten of the Li Clan's spots to enter the Land of Inheritance."
"Moreover, this must be the intention of the Five Domain Lords. The Li Clan is powerless to resist, nor will they resist, since this is also an opportunity to curry favor with the Five Domain Lords."
Lin An understood. Normally, he wouldn't even have the chance to curry favor with the Five Domain Lords, but now that the opportunity had come knocking, the Li Clan naturally wouldn't miss it.
While the two were chatting, the ten people also noticed Lin An and immediately came up to him.
"Miss Li, is this Lin An?" Xu Ming, who was in the lead, asked.
"Yes, Senior Xu, this is indeed Young Master Lin An," Li Meng replied.
Although Li Meng is the eldest daughter of the Li Clan, she is inferior to Xu Ming in both seniority and strength, so she should address him as "senior".
" Lin An, my name is Xu Ming. I have come here to express my gratitude to Lin An. If it weren't for Lin An, we wouldn't have had the opportunity to enter the Land of Inheritance," Xu Ming said with a smile, and the others nodded in agreement.
"You're too kind, everyone. I was just lucky," Lin An said politely.
"Luck is also a part of strength. Those three have been on the run for over three thousand years, yet they have never been found. This is because others don't have the same luck as Lin An," Xu Ming said.
Seeing this, Lin An stopped being modest, otherwise he would have seemed a bit pretentious.
With so many people around, it naturally becomes lively, and everyone chats away, so it doesn't feel boring at all.
Moreover, these people had extraordinary backgrounds and knew quite a few secrets, which allowed Lin An to get a lot of juicy gossip and gain a deeper understanding of the Five Domains.
About half an hour has passed.
Boom...
Just as everyone was chatting, a loud boom suddenly rang out, and a beam of light rose up from the forbidden area of the Li Clan.
Everyone stopped talking, their eyes shining brightly; they knew the Land of Inheritance was about to open.
Buzzing...
As time continued to pass, another quarter of an hour went by, and the pillar of light slowly dissipated, followed by the appearance of a vortex.
Immediately afterwards Li Tan and the others also appeared.
"Gentlemen, the Land of Inheritance has been opened. You may prepare to enter."
" The Land of Inheritance will only be open for six months, and you may leave at any time during that period."
"As for what might be inside, even I, an old man, do not know, for each time I enter, it is different."
"Furthermore, each person can only enter once in their lifetime, so please cherish this opportunity."
After Li Tan finished speaking, she stepped aside, saying, "Please, everyone."
The group exchanged glances. Xu Ming and his group of ten did not rush to set off, but instead let the 19 members of the Li Clan enter first.
"Young Master Lin, please come with us," Li Meng said.
Lin An did not refuse. He didn't know the situation of this Land of Inheritance either, but it would be better to follow the Li Clan.
"Gentlemen, I'll be going now," Lin An said, bowing to Xu Ming and the others.
Everyone nodded and smiled, and then Lin An and the Li Clan flew towards the vortex together.
After Lin An and the others entered, Xu Ming and his group of ten also set off and followed into the vortex.
After entering on the last day, the vortex disappeared. Each time the Land of Inheritance opened, only thirty people could enter; not even one more was allowed.
"I only hope that someone from my Li Clan will be able to inherit this legacy."
Li Tan spoke up.
The inheritance is not a one-time event; there won't be a situation where someone receives it and others have no chance.
If that's the case, the Li Clan wouldn't want outsiders to enter.
"There shouldn't be any problem; Meng'er has the best chance," said another elder.
Li Meng is the most talented among the younger generation of the Li Clan. In less than a hundred years, she has already reached the Sovereign Realm Fifth Grade, and her array formation skills have also reached the Sovereign Rank.
Furthermore, being a member of the Li Clan, they have the highest probability of inheriting the legacy.
Li Tan nodded, remaining silent and quietly waiting for someone to emerge from the Land of Inheritance.
At the same time, within the Li Clan's territory, a gaze silently withdrew.
"The curse of the Land of Abandonment —someone actually managed to break through to the Sovereign Realm within the Land of Abandonment; this child has extraordinary potential."
"Moreover, this young man is actually a Heavenly Diviner. Interesting."
A murmur rang out, then seemed to drift away on the wind and vanish into the void.
