Currently, the Sun had just risen, shedding down faint golden light that shone on Ling Xian.
It made him look even more extraordinary. Like an immortal descending to the mortal world, his smile was out of the world and extraordinary.
Dao Wu Ji and the others had a strange expression on their faces. They were all looking at Ling Xian like he was a monster.
Of course, it was an exaggeration. They weren't exactly shocked, they were just surprised that Ling Xian chose the Slay Sword Peak's inheritance.
There were 12 inheritances in the Wan Jian House. Every single one of them was a powerful technique. Out of them, the Slay Sword Peak's technique was known as the strongest. But on the other hand, it was extremely difficult to cultivate.
The pain of turning one's spiritual energy into sword energy and condensing it inside one's body was chilling to think about.
Though the other inheritances were weaker than the Slay Sword Peak, overall speaking, the 12 inheritances all had their own strengths and were not that different from each other.
Therefore, very few people were willing to enter the Slay Sword Peak and learn techniques that hurt themselves before they hurt their enemies.
In addition to the requirement of perseverance, this kind of technique also had a very high requirement of perception. An ordinary cultivator would need at least three to five years to be able to touch the surface of this technique.
But ever since Ling Xian entered the House, it has only been seven months and he has already mastered the Slay Sword Peak. Naturally, everyone was shocked.
"Within a few short months, you have mastered the Slay Sword Peak. Your enlightenment is not bad."
Dao Wu Ji shook his head and exclaimed, "But with your talent, it is not surprising that you could do this. What surprised me was that you learned the inheritance from the Slay Sword Peak."
Wang Yang and Lin Ying exclaimed as well. They really wanted to ask Ling Xian, does it not hurt?
Remember that when the two of them first entered the House, they wanted to learn this technique as well. However, they only lasted for three months before giving up.
What could they do? The pain of condensing spiritual energy into swords was something normal people cannot endure. Only those with great determination like Ling Xian could learn it.
"The first time I saw this inheritance, I simply picked it up." Ling Xian softly grinned. He didn't think much of the pain.
"Simply picked it up?"
Dao Wu Ji didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Wang Yang and Lin Ying were even more speechless.
Seeing how speechless everyone was, Ling Xian shook his head, "Headmaster, these two must be the Heaven's Favorites that are traveling with me."
"That's right. The man who looks like a steel tower is Wang Yang, and the woman who looks like a child is Lin Ying. They are both Heaven's Favorites of the younger generation."
Dao Wu Ji nodded and shifted his gaze towards the other two, "I don't think I need to introduce you. Why aren't you greeting me?"
Hearing this, Wang Yang and Lin Ying quickly paid their respect to Ling Xian and said in unison, "Ling Shi … No, Elder Ling."
They originally planned to call him Senior Brother Ling Xian. After all, they were of the same generation, so it was appropriate to call him Senior Brother. However, as soon as they spoke, they realized his identity and hurriedly changed their words.
"No need to be so polite. Since we are all from the Wan Jian House, there is no need to be so polite."
Ling Xian waved his hand with a smile. He scanned the two of them with his Qi and found out that they were merely of the beginning stage of the completion level. He couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Honestly speaking, these two people's cultivation levels were not bad. However, compared to the real inheritors of the other forces, they were without a doubt lacking, let alone being compared to Ling Xian.
Therefore, it was hard for him to not be disappointed. He felt like the pressure on his shoulders had increased.
However, being disappointed was being disappointed. Since Ling Xian had made a promise to Dao Wu Ji, then no matter what, he had to protect their lives and bring them back safely.
"Alright, since you know each other, then prepare to be on your way." Dao Wu Ji had a faint smile on his lips. His handsome face flashed with anticipation.
"Yes, Sect Leader." Wang Chao and Lin Ying cupped their fists together, their faces filled with anticipation.
After all, the Imperishable Temple was filled with countless fortunes and treasures. It was extremely attractive.
"Do not worry, Headmaster. I will bring them back safely."
Ling Xian softly grinned. He knew that Dao Wu Ji was most worried about their safety. Therefore, he made this promise.
"Haha, very good."
Dao Wu Ji laughed out loud and glanced at Wang Yang and Lin Ying. Then, he shifted his gaze to Ling Xian, "I am here waiting and waiting for the moment you step into the House with all the glory."
"I will not disappoint you."
The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. His confidence lit up the entire universe. Even the eternal Sun dimmed down.
"I'm relieved to hear that." Dao Wu Ji's face was full of anticipation. He really wanted to see the scene of Ling Xian dominating everyone and suppressing all the different kinds.
Ling Xian's eyes were full of anticipation as well. He paid his respect to Dao Wu Ji, "Headmaster, farewell."
Then, he signaled the other two with his eyes and leaped into the air. He headed south.
At this, Wang Yang and Lin Ying made their moves and followed behind Ling Xian.
Just like that, the three of them sliced across the sky like shooting stars and headed towards the center of Yunzhou – the Valley of the Falling Moon.
There, there were countless treasures and also fatal dangers.
Whether he returns with glory or dies in a foreign land, it all depends on Ling Xian's capabilities and luck.
...
The Imperishable Temple was a mysterious place. No one knew who built it and no one knew where it came from.
All they knew was that there were many treasures and countless opportunities. Ever since it appeared in Yunzhou 300 years ago, it opens up once every 50 years for completion leveled powerhouses to enter.
However, the majority of people don't know about this place. Only those with extraordinary identities know about it. As for the cultivators that enter this Temple, very few of them know about it. Only the Heaven's Favorites from the 10 dynasties and nine Houses have the right to enter.
Of course, the different kinds that are hiding in Yunzhou have the right to enter as well.
Therefore, when the Imperishable Temple was about to open, all the powerhouses from the 10 dynasties and nine Houses and different kinds were on their way to the Valley of the Falling Moon in the center of Yunzhou.
Every single young powerhouse was a talented descendant of their own Clan. They were extremely capable and had the right to look down on everyone else. The geniuses of the different kinds were even more ferocious and powerful. They rarely had opponents of their own level!
Without a doubt, every single Heaven's Favorite in Yunzhou was on his way to the Valley of the Falling Moon. Plus, every single one of them came with the belief that they will win.
This was because their goal was not to steal the treasures, but to fight against their opponents and gain glory for their own kind!
Therefore, when all the Heaven's Favorites arrived at the Valley of the Falling Moon, this picturesque place was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
As more and more Heaven's Favorites arrived, the smell of gunpowder intensified. It was as if a fight could break out at any moment and ignite the flames of war!
Luckily, both sides remembered the words of their elders and suppressed the anger in their chests. This was why they didn't make a move right away.
However, it was easy to predict that once the Imperishable Temple activates, the flames of war will explode between these Heaven's Favorites!
Just the thought of it made the blood of those who loved to fight boil and rush straight to the top of their heads!
