"I see. Then how did you lose to the Exterminating Sword Demon and get trapped here? With your mastery of the four arts and cultivation, you shouldn't be any weaker than the Exterminating Sword Demon. "
Luo Ping didn't dwell on the matter of Yuan Tianxing's soul and asked the next question.
Hearing Luo Ping's question, Yuan Tianxing smiled and shook his head: "You underestimated the power of the Dao of Slaughter and the Exterminating Sword Demon's strength too much, just like me."
"Back then, after I built Yuan Yi Sacred Palace, I cultivated for tens of thousands of years and finally reached the late Dongxu stage. In order to have a better chance of surviving the Heaven's Tribulation, I wanted to refine an unprecedented defensive armor for myself. The materials for the armor could only be found in the Demons sect's space, so I entered the Demons sect's space."
"It was then that I met Exterminating. Like me, he also built the Exterminating Sacred Palace. In just tens of thousands of years, the Exterminating Sacred Palace became a first-class Demon Sect."
"Brother Exterminating didn't reject me because I was of the Human race. We felt like old friends at first sight and appreciated each other's talents, regretting that we didn't meet sooner."
"After we learned about each other's experiences, we both had the idea of competing against each other. Hence, we decided to have a big battle. However, before the battle started, Brother Slayer proposed a bet."
"As it turns out, he wanted to establish a Holy Land within the sect and leave behind his legacy for the younger generation to obtain. Therefore, his bet was that if I lost, I would help him establish the Holy Land and then guard the Holy Land."
"If he lost, he would follow me willingly and become my bodyguard. At that time, I was arrogant and thought that with my mastery of the four arts, I wouldn't lose, so I agreed to his bet. Who would've thought …"
Yuan Tianxing shook his head again and again. He looked a little lonely, as if the battle was still fresh in his mind.
Luo Ping and Feng Yiming listened attentively. From Yuan Tianxing's words, they realized that the Annihilation Sword Demon was also a heaven-blessed genius.
In their opinion, the battle between the Slaughtering Sword Demon and Yuan Tianxing would be extremely fierce. They might even fight for a few days and nights. However, Yuan Tianxing's next words completely overturned their expectations.
"Who would have thought that even with all my efforts and the help of pills, weapons, arrays, and talismans, it would still be unable to withstand the might of Brother Slumie's sword?"
"I didn't even have the chance to make a move before I was defeated by his First Slash of the Immortal Slaying Technique. My four layers of defense were completely useless."
"You don't know how powerful my four layers of defense were. A ninth-grade formation was the first layer of defense, nine high-grade purple talismans were the second layer of defense, a ninth-grade spiritual armor was the third layer of defense, and the last layer of defense was nine ninth-grade pills fused into my body."
"I can say without exaggeration that only I would be able to take out such top-grade pills, weapons, arrays, and talismans. But even so, I still lost completely."
"The Dao of Slaughter. Enter the Dao through slaughter, and prove the Dao through slaughter. Once the killing intent is formed, it's unstoppable. The Might of Slaughter is extremely terrifying. It's hard to imagine. None of his moves are fancy. They're simple and direct, but they're unavoidable and unstoppable."
Although Yuan Tianxing had lost to the Annihilation Sword Demon, he was completely convinced of his opponent's strength. He had a clear understanding of the Dao of Slaughter.
Luo Ping and Feng Yiming were extremely shocked when they heard Yuan Tianxing's four layers of defense. Just as Yuan Tianxing had said, only he would be able to do such a thing.
The pills, weapons, arrays, and talismans he used were all top-grade items in the Cultivation Domain. Any one of them would be fought over by countless people, let alone so many of them.
However, the four layers of defense that Yuan Tianxing had set up were completely useless. They were defeated by the Annihilation Sword Demon in one strike. This was enough to show how terrifying the Annihilation Sword Demon's strength was.
Luo Ping and Feng Yiming hadn't seen it with their own eyes, but they were still imagining the might of the Annihilation Sword Demon's sword in their minds. Especially Feng Yiming. Because he cultivated the Dao of Slaughter, he dreamed of reaching such a level one day.
"Senior, how long did you promise the Annihilation Sword Demon to guard the Annihilation Cave? It's been almost a million years. Isn't it time yet? "
Luo Ping recovered from his shock and asked Yuan Tianxing again.
"Soon. The time limit is a million years. In another fifty thousand years, I will be able to leave this place and return to my original body. I didn't expect to meet you guys after staying here for so long. It seems like we are fated to meet."
"Originally, I didn't plan to take you as my disciple. Although you have a lot of tricks and treasures, if you don't have enough comprehension, you won't be able to grasp the essence of pills, weapons, arrays, and talismans."
"However, when you broke the talismans I set up and obtained the treasures in the cave, I had this idea. I believe that you will definitely be able to learn all of my skills."
Yuan Tianxing answered Luo Ping's question and then explained why he wanted to take him as his disciple. It was because he saw Luo Ping's comprehension of formations and talismans.
Hearing this, Luo Ping finally understood the cause and effect. He no longer had any doubts. Yuan Tianxing was indeed a respectable senior. He was willing to take him as his master.
Moreover, as long as he took Yuan Tianxing as his master, not only would he be able to inherit his techniques, but even Feng Yiming would be able to obtain the Annihilation Sword Demon's Sword Manual of Massacre. Why not?
"Greetings, Master!"
Luo Ping knelt on the ground and bowed to Yuan Tianxing. Seeing this, Yuan Tianxing laughed and waved his hand to help Luo Ping up.
"Haha, I have guarded the Annihilation Cave for six hundred thousand years. Today is the happiest day for me. Good disciple, since you have taken me as your master, I will pass on the Taihao Divine Record to you. I hope you can surpass me."
As Yuan Tianxing spoke, he took out a jade slip and pressed it against his head. After a long while, he removed it from his head and passed it to Luo Ping.
"I have already copied the contents of the Taihao Divine Record and placed it all in this jade slip. Not only does it contain the four important techniques, but it also contains soul force cultivation methods and fire control techniques."
"As long as you study it seriously, you will definitely be able to grasp the soul force cultivation methods and fire control techniques very quickly with your comprehension. Then, you will be able to display the level of the techniques of pills, talismans, formations and talismans."
"However, you must remember that the Taihao Divine Record is too precious. No matter what, you must not expose it. If not, you would definitely bring about a fatal calamity. Who knows, it might be precisely because I exposed this matter that the experts of the immortal realms came to annihilate my sect. Do you understand?"
After Yuan Tianxing passed the jade slip to Luo Ping, he warned him again. He especially reminded him not to expose the Taihao Divine Record.
"I understand. No matter what the situation is, I will not expose the Taihao Divine Record. I will also study the four techniques diligently. I will not embarrass you, master."
"That's right, master. Now that I have taken you as my master, shouldn't you give the Massacre Sword Manual to brother Feng?"
After Luo Ping promised, he reminded Yuan Tianxing of their agreement. Yuan Tianxing smiled when he heard that. He took out another jade slip and passed it to Feng Yiming.
"You have also picked up a treasure. This Massacre Sword Manual was obtained by brother Luo Mie after a close shave with death. It's yours now."
"It's the same for you. You must cultivate seriously. Since you have obtained brother Luo Mie's inheritance, you can be considered his disciple. You cannot embarrass him."
Yuan Tianxing also warned Feng Yiming. The latter excitedly grasped the jade slip that was floating in front of him and nodded heavily at Yuan Tianxing.
"Senior, don't worry. Although this junior has not seen master, I can already imagine master's magnificence. This junior will definitely do his best to cultivate and strive to reach master's level."
Feng Yiming immediately made a promise after obtaining such a great opportunity. Not only did he promise Yuan Tianxing and his master, but he also promised himself.
"Eh? Master, this disciple has another question. Could it be that no disciple of Luo Mie Saint Palace has passed the test in the past million years? Or is it that the Massacre Sword Demon's inheritance is actually in your hands? You can decide who you want to pass it on to? "
Luo Ping asked again. Yuan Tianxing smiled knowingly when he saw Luo Ping's mischievous grin.
"Haha! Kid, your eyesight is pretty good indeed. Not bad. In fact, there were some talented disciples from the Annihilation Saint Palace, but they were all forced out by my test."
"I don't want them to obtain the inheritance so quickly. Once they obtain it, Luo Mie Saint Palace won't send any more disciples here. Wouldn't it be boring for me to stay here by myself?"
"As long as the inheritance is still here, Luo Mie Saint Palace will continue to send disciples here. As for me, every once in a while, when I feel bored, I will cause a phenomenon in the Luo Mie Saint Palace to inform them that the Luo Mie Saint Palace is about to open again."
"This has been going on for so long. In fact, even if I didn't meet you this time, I would have passed on Brother Luo Mie's inheritance before the end of the time limit. It's just a matter of time now."
Luo Ping and Feng Yiming were dumbfounded when they heard Yuan Tianxing's secret. They never thought that the inheritance that Luo Mie Saint Palace had been yearning for for so many years was actually in the hands of an outsider.
The reason why the disciples of Luo Mie Saint Palace couldn't obtain the inheritance was because the outsider found it boring and used some tricks to prevent them from passing the test.
If the disciples of Luo Mie Saint Palace knew the reason, they would probably vomit blood in anger.
"By the way, master, you said that the Massacre Sword Demon left behind three inheritances. Other than the Massacre Sword Manual, what are the other two?"
