This inheritance, Qin Wentian had no choice but to give it up.
The nine golden-armored cultivators resembled puppets, yet they were in the form of humans. If it wasn't for the fact that Qin Wentian had opened his third eye, he would have been deceived by the golden-armored cultivators, thinking that they were puppets.
Nine Stellar Martial Cultivators didn't release their Astral Souls, yet they cultivated the same type of energy. Indeed, they resembled puppets. However, after Qin Wentian looked at the Gold-Punishment Ancient Scroll, a thought popped up in his head. Could it be that these nine golden-armored cultivators also cultivated the inheritance?
As for the message left behind, it also caused Qin Wentian to feel suspicious. The golden-armored cultivator mentioned that this cultivation art was tyrannical, and that there would be abnormalities when cultivating it. He even warned Qin Wentian not to let his elders know about this, causing him to feel that something was wrong. Even though the golden-armored cultivator pointed out that he was killed by someone close to him, Qin Wentian still had his suspicions.
Since they were looking for someone to inherit the inheritance, why were only Yuanfu cultivators able to enter, and Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns couldn't?
Since Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns couldn't enter, it could be explained that the inheritance only depended on one's talent. But why did the golden-armored cultivator say that his cultivation base was too low, and he wasn't worthy of the inheritance?
Not only that, although his cultivation base wasn't high, he knew that he had an extraordinary background. Not to mention that he had obtained multiple cultivation arts from the Azure Emperor. Hence, he didn't place much importance on this cultivation art. No matter how heaven-defying the golden-armored cultivator's words were, his heart wouldn't waver.
Qin Wentian's personality was extremely decisive. Since he had suspicions, and it wasn't a cultivation art that he needed, he would directly give it up.
His heart didn't waver in the slightest.
He didn't even leave it behind for Bailu Jing and Bailu Yi. He felt that there might be a problem with the inheritance.
Qin Wentian stared at the people outside the great hall. None of them moved, and their eyes gleamed with sharpness as they stared at the ancient scroll. Evidently, none of them had expected Qin Wentian to do this.
Even Bailu Yi and the rest turned pale. It wasn't easy for them to obtain this inheritance, and they actually wanted to give it away?
Glancing at the people standing outside, Zhan Chen, Yang Fan, Zhao Lie, and Hua Feng, the powers behind these people could indeed represent the entire Moon Continent. If Qin Wentian became enemies with them, Qin Wentian would no longer be able to establish a foothold in the Moon Continent. In fact, it might even affect her White Deer Institute.
"That ancient scroll contains the inheritance art of the Gold-Element Ascendant. Now, I'll give it up and give it to all of you. As for the ancient scroll in my hand, it contains the inheritance of the Dao of Divine Inscriptions and Formations. It's exactly what I need, I, Qin, will keep it for myself. In that case, I won't let down all of you. Let's forget about the enmity between us after we exit this place. Naturally, if all of you still refuse to give up and come looking for trouble with me, I, Qin, will definitely kill all of you."
Qin Wentian's voice rumbled like thunder, filled with magnanimity. Although he said it this way, Qin Wentian understood in his heart that the enmity between them wouldn't be resolved so easily. Not to mention that Zhan Chen, he had already exposed his secret, how could Zhan Chen spare him?
But now, he had already said that he wasn't willing to become the target of public criticism. At the very least, if he gave up the inheritance art, would these Heaven's Chosen from the transcendent powers have the face to use the elders of their respective clans or sects to deal with him?
After speaking, Qin Wentian flicked his sleeves as rumbling sounds echoed out. Momentarily, the doors of the great hall slowly closed, no longer bothering with the matters of the outside world.
Outside, the eyes of the crowd gleamed with sharpness as they stared at the ancient scroll.
So it turned out that this was the inheritance art left behind by the Gold-Element Ascendant.
"This cultivation art, I want it." Only to see that Zhao Lie was the first to step out. A blazing sabre appeared in his hands, flickering with a terrifying fiery light, exuding a terrifying heat. His silhouette dashed out, directly aiming for the ancient scroll.
As soon as he moved, the others also moved. Yang Fan stretched out his palms as the Star-Seizing Palm Imprint whistled out. A gigantic palm appeared in the air, grabbing towards the ancient scroll.
"Stay here." Zhao Lie's sabre flashed with a brilliant light, as though space itself was about to be sliced apart by him.
And at this instant, Zhan Chen and Hua Feng also moved, their silhouettes dashing towards the ancient scroll.
Since Qin Wentian had explained everything clearly, there was no doubt that this ancient scroll was an inheritance art. If not, if Qin Wentian wanted to cheat them and one of them showed the scroll to the others, they would know that they had been cheated by Qin Wentian.
If that was the case, Qin Wentian would have offended them even more. Since that was the case, they might as well not hand over the ancient scroll.
Hence, there was an 80% chance that this cultivation art was real.
However at this moment, the entire space started to tremble. The golden-armored male had said that if the inheritance was obtained by someone else, this place would collapse.
In the air, the statue also trembled, and with a deafening boom, it directly exploded into pieces. In that instant, the entire space was swept up by a powerful gust of wind.
This training ground was on the verge of collapse.
The great hall that Qin Wentian was in was also trembling.
Bailu Yi inclined her head, staring at the trembling great hall as she asked, "What should we do?"
"Let's go." Qin Wentian spoke, as he flew in the opposite direction of the exit, directly blasting a hole in the great hall. Their group flickered as they sped away.
The gust of wind grew stronger and stronger, and it was as though a sandstorm was sweeping over them.
"This space is already collapsing, but it shouldn't be a threat to our lives." Bailu Jing shouted in the midst of the sandstorm, wanting to pull Bailu Yi back, only to discover that the sandstorm was blowing into their eyes, causing them to be unable to open their eyes at all.
Qin Wentian closed his eyes, using his perception to probe his surroundings. Abruptly, his heart trembled.
"This is bad." Qin Wentian mumbled. Up in the air, it was as though a desert had swept over them, directly burying them. Their bodies moved along with the flow of the sand, and in an instant, they had no idea where they were swept to. The four of them were completely separated from each other.
Three days later, news circulated that the training ground for Divine Inscriptions had disappeared. The ancient city had been buried by the sandstorm.
At the original location of the ancient city, there were several people gathered there, staring at the ruins of the ancient city, yet they couldn't see anything else. There was only a vast expanse of golden sand.
"What happened?" The hearts of the crowd were filled with curiosity.
It was rumored that the training ground for Divine Inscriptions was the Dao Cultivation Ground of an Ascendant, and there was a high possibility that the inheritance of the Ascendant could be found there. If that was the case, why would such a situation occur?
Where was the training ground? And who had obtained the inheritance of the Ascendant?
The news gradually circulated around the Moon Continent, causing more and more people to gather here out of curiosity. Even those from the major powers had arrived, but at this moment, there was also news that the # 11 ranker of the Heavenly Fate Rankings, Zhan Chen, had already returned to the Pill Emperor Hall.
After which, Yang Fan from the Star-Seizing Manor, Zhao Lie from the Skyember Sect, and Hua Feng from the Hua Clan all returned to their respective clans and sects.
And after that, there was also news that the inheritance of the Ascendant had been obtained by Zhan Chen from the Pill Emperor Hall.
Many people sighed in their hearts. Zhan Chen was indeed worthy of being ranked # 11 on the Heavenly Fate Rankings, the strongest participant in the training ground. Now that he had obtained the inheritance of the Ascendant, Zhan Chen's status in the Pill Emperor Hall would definitely be even higher than before.
As for what exactly happened in the training ground, and why so many experts had fallen, nobody knew. But one could imagine that the training ground this time around must have been extremely intense.
Bailu Jing and Bailu Yi also returned to the White Deer Institute. Bailu Yi snorted disdainfully when she heard the rumors circulating in the outside world. Among all the rumors, only Qin Wentian's name wasn't mentioned.
Most probably, the news of the Heaven's Chosen from the transcendent powers being chased out of the Great Inheritance Hall was something that no one dared to mention.
Each and every Heaven's Chosen had to rely on a Grandmaster at the third level of Yuanfu in order to enter the Great Inheritance Hall. And after that, they were actually chased out of the Ascendant's Great Inheritance Hall. Even the final part of the inheritance was given to Zhan Chen by a Grandmaster at the third level of Yuanfu. Because of this, Zhan Chen was even injured.
These matters were only known by those who were directly involved in the matter. The truth might be buried in the sands of time.
Because even if Bailu Jing and Bailu Yi did it for the sake of Qin Wentian, they wouldn't publicize this matter.
Although this would allow Qin Wentian's name to resound throughout the entire Moon Continent, at the same time, it would also push Qin Wentian to the teeth of the storm, becoming the target of public criticism.
Don't forget, even if he gave up the inheritance, he still had another ancient tome of Divine Inscriptions.
To Grandmasters, the value of the tome left behind by the Ascendant was even more valuable compared to the cultivation art.
But now, where was Qin Wentian?
Bailu Yi stood at the top of the pavilion, gazing into the horizons.
In the ruins of the Refinement Grounds, beneath the billowing yellow sands, a dilapidated palace could be seen. Qin Wentian sat cross-legged inside, with a Puppet in front of him.
This Puppet was none other than the Golden-Armored King Puppet.
Qin Wentian naturally knew how to refine Puppets. Now that this Puppet had no master, how could he waste it? After all, this was a fourth-ranked Puppet.
In Qin Wentian's eyes, a Puppet was a Divine Weapon. Refining a Puppet was the same as refining a Divine Weapon.
After a Divine Weapon was refined, it could be controlled by one's will. If it was a Divine Weapon, one could use their will to control the sword, killing enemies from a thousand miles away. And after refining a Puppet, it would also be controlled by the will of its master, unless the will of the Puppet was forcefully erased by an expert from the outside.
Hence, Qin Wentian first repaired the defensive Divine Inscriptions of the Puppet. In addition, the material used to refine this Puppet had an extremely high defense. Unless it was attacked by a Heavenly Dipper Sovereign, it would be extremely difficult to erase the defensive Divine Inscriptions. After all, it wasn't easy to find someone like him who could defend against the Reverse Divine Inscriptions.
After a long period of time, the Golden-Armored King Puppet stood up. Its eyes abruptly flashed with a golden light, as though it was a golden sword, capable of piercing through the eyes of those who looked at it.
A faint smile flickered in Qin Wentian's eyes. With an intention of his will, he kept the Puppet into his interspatial ring.
Since this Puppet was controlled by his will, he could naturally keep it in his interspatial ring. But if it was controlled by someone else, he would have to erase that person's will before he could keep it.
After refining the Puppet, Qin Wentian wasn't in a hurry to leave. He closed his eyes and started to carefully sense the changes in his body.
After closing his eyes, a ray of light shot out from the center of his brows. After which, a golden vertical eye appeared there. When this eye opened, everything in the outside world was imprinted into his mind, and at the same time, it was imprinted into his heart.
In that instant, Qin Wentian's heart trembled. Both of his eyes opened, and at the same time, a resplendent beam of golden light shot out from them.
The beam of light swept past, penetrating through the hearts of others. There seemed to be a Mandate emanating from his eyes.
His eyes could actually release the willpower that he had comprehended!
