Heaven Never Seals Off Every Path
"Brush."
Not far in front of Lu Changzhi.
The void trembled slightly, and a figure slowly emerged, none other than Jiang Muqing.
Jiang Muqing appeared to be quite old, with a hint of age in her eyes, but her appearance and demeanor exuded a powerful aura. One could easily guess, without even knowing her identity, that she must be the ruler of a powerful force.
"Who is this senior?"
Lu Changzhi seemed unaware of this, and immediately became alert and wary, taking a step back.
However, the speed is not very fast, placing it in the upper-middle range among Saint King.
As he retreated, a staff made of Saint King Artifact appeared in Lu Changzhi's hand.
"Young friend, don't be afraid."
Jiang Muqing raised her hand, trying to appear more amiable.
However, given her temperament and appearance, there's a somewhat awkward feeling about her.
As he spoke, Jiang Muqing raised his hand and took out a jade tablet.
On the jade tablet, there was One Brush Saint Hall.
Jiang Muqing gestured to Lu Changzhi and continued:
"Do you recognize this mark, young friend?"
Lu Changzhi's eyes flickered, showing some surprise, and he tentatively asked:
"The One Brush Saint Hall founded by Senior Chen?"
Upon hearing Lu Changzhi's reply, Jiang Muqing showed a slight smile on the surface, but was overjoyed inside.
This statement is clearly correct.
This is indeed true.
Not long ago, the bell at the very heart of the One Brush Sacred Palace, which had been passed down since its founding, suddenly rang ten times and then exploded.
The One Brush Saint Hall was at a loss for words when he relayed this news to himself.
He was immediately alarmed and rushed over to check.
As he had expected, it was exactly as he had heard before.
When the bell tolls ten times and explodes, One Brush Saint Hall's patriarch.
The fragments of the ancient bell will guide the direction of its inheritance.
In addition, there seems to be another sentence.
When the inheritance manifests, everyone in the One Brush Sacred Palace, from top to bottom, must put aside everything else and rush to the destination immediately.
Anyone who enters the tomb but is not a member of the One Brush Sacred Palace must have already received the inheritance. When such a person dies, the inheritance will be left behind in its entirety. The responsibility of everyone in the One Brush Saint Hall is to ensure that the inheritance does not fall into the hands of outsiders. Furthermore, in this matter, one must not listen to sophistry, must not be soft-hearted, and must not be afraid of the background of the person who comes.
In the past, this was considered a very serious instruction from the head of the hall.
However, given the internal power struggles within the One Brush Saint Hall over the years, the fruitless search, and the somewhat perplexing nature of the regulations, the situation remains uncertain.
Therefore, he only listened casually at first.
He didn't take it seriously at all; it was so unimportant that he didn't even tell the current leader.
Right now, it's a double celebration.
What I once dismissed as a claim has actually come true; there really is a tradition. This is a pleasant surprise.
The current head of the hall was not informed, and few others knew about it. There was not much commotion. He alone could take away the ancestral master's inheritance without causing any further trouble. This was the second benefit.
He's old.
With the One Brush Saint Hall of his pen, the internal strife that had lasted for years finally came to an end. Dissidents were purged, and the entire power was firmly in his grasp.
But those who disagree with us are ultimately part of the One Brush Saint Hall.
The purge of dissidents also led to a more pronounced decline in the overall strength of the One Brush Saint Hall.
More importantly, ending these conflicts wasted far too much time.
Now, his lifespan is running out, and it's difficult to advance his cultivation level. Without a new breakthrough opportunity, he will only be pushed along by time, and ultimately, this One Brush Saint Hall he has cultivated for so many years will have nothing to do with him.
This was not something he could accept.
But clearly, there's always a way out.
Unexpectedly, the lineage of our ancestor has actually appeared today!
With the legacy and expertise of his ancestor, he has a great chance of breaking through to the Saint Emperor Realm!
As for the future after the Saint Emperor, there was no need to think too much about it; it was enough to make his heart surge with excitement.
Regardless, he had to take the legacy from his ancestor.
"It seems that you are not a junior member of my One Brush Saint Hall."
Jiang Muqing tried her best to appear more normal.
However, Lu Changzhi secretly shook his head at the subtle reactions he observed.
"Even Saint Venerable Realm expert seems to be no better at acting than Sect Master Cang."
Thinking to himself, Lu Changzhi pretended not to notice and immediately shook his head, saying:
"I've only heard of it, but I haven't joined."
Jiang Muqing nodded, secretly feeling regretful.
If it's One Brush Saint Hall, then killing him is fine; there's no need to think about it.
But if not, it will inevitably involve the forces behind it.
Unless, he is absolutely certain.
However, if the other party possesses a life-saving technique left behind by a Saint Emperor- level expert, it is not only easy to alert them and potentially cause a sure thing to slip away, but if this also attracts Saint Emperor Realm expert, it would be a greater loss than gain.
He has ideas, but he's not stupid.
However, judging from the current situation, this junior has already relaxed his vigilance somewhat.
Once we extract enough information, we'll know exactly how to proceed.
At that moment, Jiang Muqing asked:
"To have received the legacy of the patriarch, your power must be a formidable force within the array formation system, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Muqing regretted it.
I was still a bit too impatient.
That's a pretty blunt question!
What if this kid...
Just then, he saw Lu Changzhi shake his head:
"No, that's not it. The Myriad Laws Academy mainly focuses on the study of magic and spells. I never expected that I would receive a legacy in the area of array formations."
Hearing Lu Changzhi say this, Jiang Muqing was slightly taken aback, and thought to herself:
"Looks like another kid who's gone mad from practicing cultivation; can't he even grasp the deeper meaning behind that question?"
"Or do you actually know, but deliberately answered that way?"
Once the next idea came to mind, Jiang Muqing put it aside.
This kid doesn't seem like the type of junior he'd expect.
Furthermore, even if it were true, judging from his aura, this kid had only recently entered the Saint King. He might be considered decent among his peers, but to him, Saint King was someone he could kill with a flick of his wrist, so there was no need to consider his strength.
It is even less threatening than its so-called "Myriad Laws Academy" background.
However, although the Myriad Laws Academy is a major power in the Five Continents Domain and its overall strength is not weak, it ultimately does not have a Saint Emperor level expert.
Without the Saint Emperor, the difficulty is much lower.
The immediate need is to determine whether there is a powerful protector operating in the shadows.
To receive the legacy from the founder, one must possess unique talent.
He dislikes unnecessary complications.
However, there's no need to test the waters any further for now.
If he can confirm through further investigation that there are no powerful individuals present, then this kid can die.
For now, just talk to this kid to make him feel comfortable and lower his guard.
This is not a troublesome matter.
On the other side, Lu Changzhi glanced at the system.
With the speed boost gained from targeting Chen Yibi, there's not much time left.
Jiang Muqing was more indecisive than he had imagined.
Lu Changzhi decided to take the initiative and give it a push.
At that moment, Lu Changzhi took the initiative to speak, saying:
"Senior, now that I have received Senior Chen's inheritance, may I now enter the One Brush Saint Hall and become its One Brush Saint Hall Son?"
