After Qin Wentian obtained the ancient manual, he immersed himself in comprehending it. At the same time, he sensed the transformations in his body. This closed-door seclusion lasted for a total of two months, causing him to lose track of time.
In these two months, he deeply felt the power of his bloodline. At the same time, he also experienced the profoundness of the ancient manual left behind by the Gold-Element Celestial Lord.
The Gold-Element Celestial was truly an extraordinary character. Regardless of his attainments in the Dao of Divine Inscriptions or his cultivation base, he was extremely powerful.
In fact, Qin Wentian was thinking that although the other inheritance he left behind had been discarded by him, it should still be extremely powerful.
However, Qin Wentian had no regrets. He believed in his intuition. If it wasn't for the fact that he had opened his third eye and personally witnessed that the golden-armored giants weren't Puppets, he wouldn't have doubted the inheritance. But now that he saw the nine golden-armored giants guarding the inheritance like puppets, and even sacrificing their lives to control the golden-armored giants, Qin Wentian couldn't help but doubt the authenticity of the ancient manual.
Hence, he gave up.
In these two months, his strength had risen by leaps and bounds. Regardless of his attainments in the Dao of Divine Inscriptions, the current him was more and more confident in himself. Most probably, it wouldn't be too long before he would be able to establish a foothold in the Moon Continent. He wouldn't be like now, unable to do anything he wanted.
This was also the feeling Qin Wentian had after coming to the Moon Continent. That sense of urgency caused him to constantly think of ways to increase his strength. In truth, his cultivation base was already outstanding enough.
He stepped onto the path of cultivation at the age of sixteen and awakened his three Astral Souls, all originating from the 5th Heavenly Layer. Up until now, he had never met anyone who could match up to him.
Stepping into Yuanfu before the age of eighteen, his name shook the entire Chu Country. Not only that, he even managed to determine the ruler of the Chu Country. This was an achievement that many would never be able to achieve in their entire lives.
And now, he wasn't even nineteen yet. His current cultivation base was at the fourth level of Yuanfu. During his closed-door seclusion, he broke through again, stepping into the fourth level of Yuanfu from the third level.
His Yuanfu Pool grew stronger, and his insights into the Dao of Martial Dao grew deeper.
Not far away, a beautiful silhouette walked over. Although Bailu Yi wasn't as beautiful as Mo Qingcheng, she gave off a sense of comfort when looking at her. She was clean, refreshing, pure, and sexy. Every time people saw her, their eyes would light up.
"You rascal, you still know to come back." Bailu Yi glared coquettishly at Qin Wentian. In front of Qin Wentian, she didn't have to feign coldness anymore. She was more and more casual, occasionally revealing her feminine side, adding to her charm.
Qin Wentian stared at Bailu Yi as a smile flashed across his face. "From your tone, why do I feel as though this is my home?"
"In your dreams." Bailu Yi glared at him. "How was your harvest this time around?"
"I've gained a lot. Do you want to take a look at the Ascendant's ancient scroll?" Qin Wentian stared at Bailu Yi with a teasing look in his eyes. And indeed, upon hearing his words, Bailu Yi's beautiful eyes instantly lit up. The ancient scroll of the Ascendant, to a genius Divine Inscriptionist, was simply too attractive.
If the people of the Moon Continent were to learn of this, it would definitely cause many fourth-ranked Grandmasters to go crazy over it.
"Forget it, you were the one who snatched the inheritance, it should belong to you," Bailu Yi replied after some thought.
"I didn't say I would give it to you," Qin Wentian laughed, causing Bailu Yi to glare at him fiercely. Was he joking with her?
"I'll lend it to you for a few days, it won't affect my comprehension." Qin Wentian shrugged, causing Bailu Yi's beautiful eyes to freeze. Staring at the teasing look on Qin Wentian's face, she involuntarily punched him in the chest.
Qin Wentian naturally wouldn't be stingy with Bailu Yi. This beautiful young lady had used her own body to block an attack from Zhu Sha when they were fighting for the inheritance.
"Where's Big Bro Chu Mang and Fatty?" Qin Wentian couldn't help but ask when he saw Little Rascal running over.
"The two of them are currently in a frenzy, roaming all over the place to temper themselves. During these two months, they've already accumulated countless battle achievements in the Hell Arena." Bailu Yi's words caused Qin Wentian's heart to tremble. Fatty finally wasn't lazy anymore.
Leng Ning's death must have been a huge blow to him.
In the vast Grand Xia Empire, experts were as common as the clouds. If one didn't have enough strength, they could only watch helplessly as the heart-wrenching things happened.
If Qin Wentian had his current strength back then, the Leng Clan wouldn't have been able to touch a single strand of hair on Leng Ning's head. Yan Tie, whom the Leng Clan tried to curry favor with, would be easily killed by the current him.
"Qin Wentian, come with me, I have something important to tell you."
Bailu Yi's countenance turned solemn as she brought Qin Wentian to a secret location. However, it wasn't the central region. Although Qin Wentian and Bailu Yi had a good relationship, as long as Qin Wentian wasn't a core member of the White Deer Institute, he wouldn't be able to enter that place.
Di Feng and Di Cheng were exceptions, because they knew the greatest secret of the White Deer Institute – the Azure Faction.
Although Qin Wentian also knew about it, before Qin Wentian decided to lay his cards on the table, Bailu Yi naturally wouldn't tell the White Deer Institute on his behalf. It was up to Qin Wentian to make the decision himself.
"What's the matter?" Qin Wentian couldn't help but ask when he saw Bailu Yi pulling him to a secluded location.
"These few days, a group of people came to the White Deer Institute. One of them is named Di Feng, and he has another name, Emperor Azure. He's ranked # 5 on the Heavenly Fate Rankings and is currently in the training grounds of the White Deer Institute. They are from the Di Clan, a direct descendant of the Azure Emperor." Bailu Yi's words instantly caused Qin Wentian's countenance to turn heavy.
Direct descendant of the Azure Emperor, the Di Clan.
Qin Wentian instantly thought of the headmaster of the Emperor Star Academy, Di Yi.
That old man should still be in the Nine Mystical Palace, right? Qin Wentian wondered if the Nine Mystical Palace had managed to kill him. As he thought of this, Qin Wentian's thirst for power grew even more intense.
"They know that the White Deer Institute is one of the hidden branches of the Azure Emperor. Their purpose in coming here is to gain control of the White Deer Institute and revive the Azure Emperor Palace," Bailu Yi stated, her words causing many thoughts to appear in Qin Wentian's heart.
After obtaining the Azure Emperor Token, he knew that his path to reclaim the Azure Faction wouldn't be smooth. Now that the Di Clan had appeared, he couldn't help but wonder what their stance would be.
If they knew that the Azure Emperor Token was in his hands, what would their attitude be?
"Without the Azure Emperor Token, do you think the White Deer Institute would approve of them?" Qin Wentian asked in a heavy voice.
"These people have some tricks up their sleeves. First, they sent the silkpants Di Cheng over, causing the White Deer Institute to have a bad impression of him. And after that, Di Feng appeared, causing the elders of the White Deer Institute to have a good impression of Di Feng. If they really saw hope in him, I think the White Deer Institute might really agree to their request." Bailu Yi continued, "As for their explanation regarding the Azure Emperor Token, they said that the protector of the Azure Emperor Token had been captured by the Nine Mystical Palace. They were worried that the secret of the Azure Faction would be leaked, and this caused the White Deer Institute to change their plans."
Qin Wentian contemplated for a moment after hearing Bailu Yi's words. This matter was a challenge to him, but at the same time, it was also an opportunity.
The people from the Di Clan had helped him break through the layers of paper, causing the White Deer Institute to have the intention of reviving the Azure Emperor Palace. Next, the question was who would be in charge of the Azure Faction.
"After Senior Di Yi passed the Azure Emperor Token to me, he was captured by the Nine Mystical Palace because of me. I believe that even in death, Senior Di Yi wouldn't divulge the secret of the Azure Faction," Qin Wentian stated, his heart heavy.
It seemed like he had no choice but to bring his plans forward. The White Deer Institute, the first battle he would have to succeed.
"What do you plan to do next?" Bailu Yi asked Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian smiled when he saw the seriousness in Bailu Yi's eyes. "Don't worry, even if Di Feng from the Di Clan fought with me, the victor would still be mine."
So what if he was ranked # 5 on the Heavenly Fate Rankings? Very soon, he would have the confidence to be on par with Di Feng. Not only that, if he was given more time, in a year or two at most, he would become the most dazzling ranker on the Heavenly Fate Rankings.
This was his conviction, and also his ambition.
"Let's go, I'll impart the ancient scroll of the Ascendant to you." Qin Wentian laughed. Bailu Yi also smiled as she stared at his handsome countenance. She believed that Qin Wentian would definitely win, no matter what challenges he had to face.
Ranked # 11, Zhan Chen, # 18, Yang Fan, Zhao Lie, Hua Feng, and Qin Wentian, didn't they already snatch the inheritance right under their noses? So what if he was ranked # 5?
… …
In a place extremely far away from the Moon Continent, there was an ancient city where humans and demonic beasts coexisted, the Celestial Lake Palace.
At this moment, the Palace Mistress of the Celestial Lake Palace was respectfully standing in the middle of the great hall, gazing at the peerless beauty seated before her.
Fairy Qingmei lazily laid there, her beautiful eyes flickering with a demonic light. Her jade-like hands rapped on the chair as she asked in a low voice, "That old fellow, can't he stay idle any longer?"
"The news I received was that currently, the two major powers have already divided into two factions. No one is able to suppress the other," the Palace Mistress calmly replied.
"Hehe, who would have thought that even before they could rise up, there would already be a worm growing within them. Even before the Azure Emperor Token was issued, they already wanted to seize power?" Fairy Qingmei's smile was filled with a trace of coldness.
"Seems like that's what they're thinking. During these years, they've gradually grown stronger and stronger, with many geniuses emerging from their ranks. Right now, Di Feng has already arrived at the White Deer Institute in the Moon Continent." The Palace Mistress of the Celestial Lake Palace seemed to be extremely familiar with the happenings in the Moon Continent.
"How are things going with Qing 'er and that little fellow? Will that lass's heart be moved? "A gentle smile involuntarily appeared on Fairy Qingmei's face as she thought of Qing 'er.
"She should be fine, Master should know of Qing 'er's temperament. She's always cold and indifferent, it would be extremely difficult to make her enter the mortal world." The Palace Mistress bitterly smiled as she continued, "As for that little fellow, he's not bad at all."
"Oh?" Fairy Qingmei's gaze froze. "It's rare for you to have such a high evaluation of him. Since this is the case, why don't you send some people out to take a look? Don't let that little fellow be too isolated. It's fine if nothing happens, but if there really is a conflict, at the very least, I should let them know my stance."
