Somewhere.
The sea breeze was gentle.
An ancient building was located by the sea.
Looking up from this angle, one could vaguely see an endless mountain range. On the mountain range, there were a few tall and dazzling peaks!
This was the legacy site!
It was also a restricted area on this island!
After countless years of evolution, this place had long become the territory of some people.
At this very moment …
Under the sunlight …
Several cultivators looked at the illusory scene that was suspended in front of them. The legacy site was too far away and they could not see it clearly. The scene in front of them was exactly the same as that in the distance —
This was the miniature version of the legacy site!
"Did the Observer go back in?"
"Yes, they mixed in with those assessments and no one noticed."
"Very good."
The leader nodded slightly.
The Observer provided them with the miniature version of the legacy site.
When those people were training in the forest, the Observer had already completed his task and left an exclusive observation ability at each node.
That was why they could check it out here.
Shush!
He reached out his hand and opened the sixth mountain.
The virtual image in front of him automatically enlarged, adjusted and switched to various angles according to his gestures, providing them with the best observation service.
It was a pity that they could not hear anything.
However, it was enough to be able to see some virtual images and deductions. They were waiting for the moment when the legacy was activated.
However …
There was still a big problem —
Lu Ming!
They had prepared a corresponding response plan for everyone in the legacy. However, they could not understand Lu Ming!
Should they say that he was strong?
He was merely a Two Stars Card Creator …
Just a casual Sword Aura and he vomited blood in the legacy.
Should they say that he was weak?
Everyone looked at the miniature image in front of them. The seven mountains that were supposed to be dazzling were now only left with five mountains …
The fourth mountain collapsed.
The sixth mountain cowered.
？？？
Which of them had seen a mountain with spiritual intelligence cowering?
They had seen it. The gigantic boulder man that was evolved from the sixth mountain cowered. This brought great difficulty to their plan …
"How powerful is the gigantic boulder man?"
"I can't deduce it, but it should be at the peak of Six Stars."
"Get Elder Xu to take action."
"Okay."
They had come to an agreement.
"What about Lu Ming?"
Someone asked.
Shush!
There was silence all around.
Lu Ming …
How should he deal with this fellow?
Killing him was not a problem. The most important thing was, what if this guy destroyed the mountain again? According to their understanding, Lu Ming should have mastered some special card creating legacy …
It was dangerous.
They didn't know where the inheritance of the Moon Shadow was!
If …
What if Lu Ming accidentally destroyed the legacy after passing the seventh mountain?
It was too dangerous!
"Since they aren't fighting for the inheritance, why aren't they leaving?"
Someone was puzzled.
"For the Seventh Mountain."
One of them shook his head. "After all, the more inheritances we pass, the more rewards we can obtain. The reason why Lu Yan and her brother stayed behind is obviously for more profits."
"Can you ask them to leave early?"
"Make some noise or something."
Someone suggested, "Let the Observer design something to force the two of them to leave. It would be best if they could directly leave the legacy. That way, we won't have to worry anymore."
Pa!
The old man next to him slapped him.
"Is his brain flooded with water?"
"You dare to let them leave at this time?"
"Just because of a Two Stars Lu Ming, you're so scared?!"
The old man roared.
"Uh —"
That person smiled bitterly. "Isn't this a special situation …"
Lu Ming was a Two Stars.
But in this place, he was not a Two Stars!
The Moon Shadow Legacy had been passed down for too long. That was why the structure of the mountain was so unstable. Under such circumstances, Lu Ming's demolition was a big killer!
Who dared to provoke him?!
Under such circumstances, wouldn't it be best to trick the two of them into leaving?!
Furthermore …
There were seven Moon Shadow Cards. If only the two of them survived …
Wouldn't it be more interesting?
There would even be a scapegoat!
It was a pity …
His words carried little weight. It was impossible for the higher-ups to listen to him.
"I can invite Zhang Erliang to give it a try."
Someone suggested.
"Zhang Erliang?"
Everyone's eyes lit up.
A special method required a special target!
Zhang Erliang, Architect, Four Stars cultivator, specialized in stabilizing the structure system. All his abilities revolved around stabilizing the structure!
He had received generous rewards in several earthquake relief operations!
If he strengthened the structure …
He would definitely be able to stabilize the tremors!
As for the demolition itself?
He did not have to care about it at all.
"It's feasible!"
Everyone was very satisfied.
"…"
The cultivator who suggested to chase Lu Ming away paused for a moment and did not dare to speak again. This was because no matter how he looked at it, the other party's suggestion was more reliable than his.
It was just that …
Would it really be alright?
…
The sixth mountain.
Lu Ming, who was chatting with the gigantic boulder man, obviously did not expect that the guys who were plotting had already treated him as the final BOSS and were targeting him.
At this moment …
He was trying to trick the gigantic boulder man into leaving.
He did not know what tricks those guys had up their sleeves. But there was no doubt that the gigantic boulder man would be a very good fighter given his strength.
"I can't leave the legacy."
The gigantic boulder man scratched his head.
Bang!
Bang!
Large chunks of boulders fell with a loud crash.
Lu Ming was speechless.
He was indeed the incarnation of the sixth mountain. His dandruff was more unique than ordinary people.
"Can you become smaller?"
Lu Ming sighed.
It was really tiring to chat like this. He was also afraid of being smashed to death by the dandruff.
The gigantic boulder man was a genderless person. If he was a male, he would have to worry about a skyscraper playing with a big pendulum in front of him …
It was scary at the thought of it.
"Sure."
The gigantic boulder man nodded in a simple and honest manner.
Buzz —
His figure shrunk and became the size of a normal person.
"Why didn't you transform earlier?"
Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.
"I was afraid that you would tear me apart."
The gigantic boulder man felt aggrieved. At least he could run faster after becoming bigger.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Damn it.
He made it sound as if he was a demon king! His sister was the better one!
"There's no need to leave the land of legacy."
Lu Ming paused for a moment. "Some bad guys are spying on this place. As the guardian of the land of legacy, shouldn't you protect us while we receive the legacy?"
"Y-you're right."
The gigantic boulder man was puzzled.
Since when did he become the guardian of the legacy?
"That's right."
Lu Ming patted him on the shoulder. "Just follow me then."
"Oh."
The gigantic boulder man paused for a moment and suddenly realized that something was amiss. There were seven groups of inheritors participating in the legacy this time. "W-why should I follow you?"
"Because you can't defeat me."
Lu Ming was expressionless. "If you don't follow me, I will tear you apart."
The gigantic boulder man was speechless.
S-that made sense.
"Any other questions?"
Lu Ming asked.
"N-no more."
The gigantic boulder man compromised.
Anyway, it was fine as long as he did not tear himself apart.
"Since that's the case.
"Then, hand over the energy."
Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Huh?"
The gigantic boulder man felt aggrieved. "H-why do I still need energy? I really can't give all my energy to you. If I give it all to you, I won't be able to take the assessment anymore."
"Your mission is to select the strongest, right?"
Lu Ming asked.
"Yes."
The gigantic boulder man rumbled.
"Then what do you think of my strength?"
Lu Ming looked at him with a smile.
"Strong."
The gigantic boulder man rumbled.
To be able to chase him all over the world, he must be very powerful.
"So …
"Look.
"Even if I don't chase you and you chase me, how long do you think you will take to defeat me?"
Lu Ming asked in a serious tone.
"…"
The gigantic boulder man thought for a long time but did not have an answer.
Or rather …
It was very long.
"Look, that guy lasted for fifty seconds and you gave him the corresponding energy. Now, I will reluctantly give you five hundred thousand seconds. Do you think I can last for five hundred thousand seconds?"
Lu Ming asked.
"Y-you can."
The gigantic boulder man thought about it seriously.
He did not dare to chase after Lu Ming. He could definitely last for five hundred thousand seconds.
"That's right."
Lu Ming was satisfied. "Forget about the one million for me. Let's count it as five hundred thousand seconds. You just need to give me the corresponding reward for five hundred thousand seconds!"
"Y-yes."
The gigantic boulder man nodded.
It was the rule to obtain energy according to time. He had to abide by it.
"…"
Lu Yan frowned as she watched her brother bluffing the gigantic boulder man. Obviously, the gigantic boulder man was not very intelligent. It was normal for him to be bluffed. However, this was not the problem.
Instead …
Wasn't her brother too familiar with the way he bluffed?
Had he practiced it before?
With whom?
Inexplicably …
She thought of Xiao Bai …
Could this girl have been bluffed by Lu Ming in the same way? She was Jiang Feng's daughter! It would be very troublesome if there were any problems!
She did not want to see her brother in various legal newspapers!
However …
That should not be the case.
Her brother most likely did not like this girl.
Her brother used to like her. Later on, he liked men. Now, he seemed to be flirting with Gao Xiaoqing …
Wait a minute.
Why was it getting messier?
Lu Yan felt a headache coming on.
She would try her best to help her brother in terms of cultivation. However, when it came to relationships, especially when it came to her brother's strange relationship problems …
She felt a little powerless.
"Sister?"
Lu Ming waved his hands.
This was strange. Why was his sister in a daze recently?
"What's the matter?"
Lu Yan came to her senses.
"Brother Boulder, help me temper my energy. Help me guard the place."
Lu Ming said.
"Okay."
Lu Yan nodded slightly.
Shush!
Lu Ming sat cross-legged.
Energy surged in the boulder giant's hands and suddenly filled Lu Ming's body.
Bang!
Bang!
Energy vibrated.
It was still the familiar tempering!
Ten percent!
Twenty percent!
Thirty percent!
…
Lu Ming's energy was transforming crazily.
Increase!
Increase!
Increase again!
In the end …
When the energy stopped, the little bit of energy in Lu Ming's body was actually tempered to the Three Star peak. It was tempered to the extreme!
Extreme tempering!
Yes.
This was the true extreme!
Although Lu Ming's energy was weak, the quality of the energy itself had reached the Three Star peak! This was the greatest improvement of his legacy!
Because …
This was the only thing that had something to do with him!
Lu Ming also felt very aggrieved.
The seven assessments might seem to improve a lot but it had nothing to do with him!
Original Card!
Body!
Mental strength!
Which one of them was needed by a Card Creator?
None of them!
Thankfully …
In the end, there was still an improvement.
Although his energy did not increase, he had completed the tempering of his energy. In the future, when his energy reached ten thousand points, he would naturally be a Three Star peak!
When the conditions were right, success would follow!
It was perfect!
Of course.
This was because his energy had already condensed …
Well …
The path of improvement in the future might be very slow!
This was because every time he obtained some energy, the energy had to go through various kinds of compression and tempering. It had to become the same quality and density as the energy in his body before it could be integrated into one!
This also meant that …
Lu Ming's improvement might require a massive amount of energy!
For Lu Ming's current Two Star energy level, it might take a very long time.
"You might improve very slowly."
Lu Yan reminded him.
"It's okay."
Lu Ming did not care.
Could the matter of energy even be considered a problem?
As long as he was not stuck at a bottleneck, he could break through any energy!
Furthermore …
If there was danger in the future …
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
"Can I be considered a Three Star peak now?"
Lu Ming could feel his brand new ability.
"No."
Lu Yan took a glance and concluded, "One-quarter Three Star peak."
Lu Ming was speechless.
A — alright.
One-quarter Three Star peak. That was still a Three Star peak!
"I don't have enough energy."
The gigantic boulder man sounded aggrieved.
"It's okay."
Lu Ming patted his shoulder. "In the future, you will work with me. You can owe me the remaining energy. You can return it to me when your energy has recovered."
"Okay."
The gigantic boulder man sounded depressed.
He felt that what Lu Ming said made sense. He was a good person and he allowed him to owe him a debt.
It was just that … something felt strange? It had clearly given all its energy to Lu Ming. Why did it still owe him a huge amount of energy?
It could not figure it out.
"…"
Lu Yan glanced at her brother.
She had a strange feeling that if she did not protect her brother well, he would be beaten to death one day …
