The most important thing in this valley was obviously not the 24 sections of the Valley of Heaven, but the ability and attitude of the owner of the valley, especially the attitude of the Sage who taught everyone without discrimination.
Who was Rootless Sheng?
This guy was the only Sect Leader recognized by the whole city in recent years. He was also the culprit who led to the birth of the Eight Strange Skills and the chaos of the Jia Shen.
Although the strange Qi situation in the Qinling Mountains was very suitable for hiding treasures, Rootless Sheng was just a troublemaker after all. He was not a person full of evil who burned, killed, and looted. His strength was obviously not at the level where he could look down on heroes.
This kind of guy …
What kind of really precious collection could he have?
The only thing that could attract Liu Xiaojiang's attention now was the inheritance that Rootless Sheng had obtained. Because it was this so-called inheritance that led to the birth of the Eight Strange Skills.
Speaking of inheritance …
Weren't the 24 sections of the Valley of Heaven and the cave of 'What is a Person' obviously left something here by the Sage?
The 24 sections of the Valley of Heaven taught living beings to sense Qi and use Qi. The name of the cave of 'What is a Person' and the riddle of the word 'Sincerity' seemed to be a test for the living beings who entered this place.
What was the purpose of the Sage leaving behind such a test?
Could this be a test for the living beings who entered this place to see if they were qualified to obtain the things they left behind?
What did the Sage leave behind?
Why could Rootless Sheng cause the birth of the Eight Strange Skills?
Inheritance!
The Sage's inheritance!
This must be the kind of inheritance that Tian had told him before that could allow the eight people to comprehend the Eight Strange Skills!
Liu Xiaojiang thought that this was very likely. He believed that Rootless Sheng might have obtained the inheritance here. Later on, he led the other 35 people here for some purpose and personally contributed to the Eight Strange Skills that led to the chaos of the Jia Shen.
Why would Rootless Sheng, after obtaining the inheritance, personally 'destroy' the 24 Valley Cultivation Method because he did not agree with the Sage's ideals? Then, he brought 35 other people here to comprehend the Sage's inheritance. Now, it seemed that it was not that important anymore.
The most important thing right now was to solve the riddle left behind by the Sage. After passing the test left behind by the Sage, would the inheritance that allowed one to comprehend the Eight Wonder Techniques still exist?
Even if the Rootless Lifeform did not agree with the Sage's teachings, that legacy might have long been personally erased by him, and even the Eight Wondrous Skills might have only been born from his' narration '. Even so, as long as there was a sliver of possibility, it was enough to attract everyone's attention.
The inheritance of the Sage.
Looking at it now, it was undoubtedly a double-edged sword.
If it was given to a pure-minded person, it might be able to benefit even more people. However, if it was given to a group of people who only sought power, it might cause chaos on the same scale as the mutant world back then. It might even be a good development situation.
After all, the present was no longer the same as back then. Even back then, selfish people who did not care about the big picture occupied the majority of the crowd.
Not to mention now …
Look at those ordinary people's pursuit of 'power'!
Could it be that they could still place their hopes on the inhumans who had been suppressed to the edge of society by ordinary people because of their weak 'strength'?
He prayed that the Mutants would consider the stability of the ordinary people's society and give up this inheritance that could make them the main characters of the world?
If the inheritance was still there.
Even if Liu Xiaojiang would monopolize the inheritance that could give birth to the Eight Wondrous Skills out of a little 'selfish desire', after achieving his goal of not affecting anyone, he would never destroy the balance between ordinary people and inhumans for the sake of power.
All along …
What Liu Xiaojiang wanted was to truly integrate into this world. It was a kind of freedom that did not affect anything. He did not want to rely on his own powerful strength to force everything in the world to submit to his feet. Then, he would ignore the originally stable order of living beings and make all living beings his subordinates.
Instead of saying that this kind of situation was carefree, it was better to say that the world only existed for himself. Most of them were extremely selfish and boring things. Countless examples in the past could also show that they would eventually lead to their own destruction.
People who cultivated Qi trained themselves and their hearts. Strength was just an accessory on the 'path of cultivation'. It was a means to protect one's freedom from being violated by evil people.
If one really used this kind of self-protection method to persecute the freedom of others for their own selfish desires, any excuse was just to make their evil deeds seem more reasonable to those who did not know what they were doing.
It was just an excuse.
Liu Xiaojiang's existence was between humans and other living beings, or perhaps beyond any living beings.
As long as he could hold on to his' Dao heart ', then after achieving his true goal, he would not allow himself to go too far and affect all the other living beings in the world.
If the inheritance was not there.
Liu Xiaojiang would feel much more relaxed. He only needed to kill Liu Mingyuan and those foreigners who did not hold back their farts and guide Wang Zhenqiu and the others to not care about the so-called Saint's inheritance.
Anyway.
Other than Xia Liuqing, who was truly comprehensive, whether it was Wang Zhenqiu, Mei Jinfeng, or Barron, they could all be considered reasonable people. They would not do anything to destroy the stability and order of the current society for the sake of the Saint's inheritance.
Liu Xiaojiang did not have good or evil in his heart. He only wanted to let himself and his friends be truly carefree without affecting the stability of the world.
Good or bad.
Evil or bad.
The two of them were completely irrelevant.

'What is a human' cave.
Deep in the main road.
Gunshots, curses, and screams could be heard incessantly, but most of them came from the team led by Liu Mingyuan.
In just ten minutes.
In the team led by Liu Mingyuan, many ordinary people had already died here. Among them, there were also many ordinary people who began to show more obvious changes as time passed.
Some of them even gave up walking on their feet and turned to walking on all fours. Their physical fitness had undergone an earth-shattering change.
They held guns and controlled the 'tree-men' around them, causing some trouble for Xia Liuqing, Wang Zhenqiu, and Feng Bao Bao.
Feng Bao Bao and the other two appeared directly to stop this group of people from approaching the depths of the cave. Mei Jinfeng, who was hiding in the dark, was responsible for supporting them with psychokinesis.
Although they were not really injured by this group of transformed ordinary people, there were also foreign mutants who cooperated with each other. They were indeed delayed by this group of people and could not stop Liu Mingyuan and Judy, who continued to go deeper into the cave under the cover of Ilya.
"Ilya! Catch! "
Liu Mingyuan glanced at Judy, who was following closely behind him. He immediately took out the 'Devourer' made by Ma Xianhong and threw it to Ilya, who was in charge of covering him.
"Very good, we're about to reach the location of the collection. This is the reward I agreed with you before. The reward for Chanon, Hongda, and Baza, except for Nash, who was knocked out, everyone's reward has been paid."
"Remember, from now on, it doesn't matter what the others do. You don't have to care about me anymore. Your only task is to follow Judy and protect her safety, but you can't stop her from doing anything!"
"Oh?" Ilya looked at the items in the Devourer and glanced at Liu Mingyuan and Judy behind him.
"If you pay us all the reward now, aren't you afraid that we'll quit immediately? This job doesn't look easy …"
"The mutants hired this time are all carefully selected, especially you, Ilya, Na Senwei, people who live for promises!" Liu Mingyuan interrupted with a smile.
"Hmph." Ilya glanced at Liu Mingyuan with a smile. He had no intention of refuting these facts.
However, at this moment.
"Na Senwei …"
Liu Xiaojiang appeared in front of Ilya, Liu Mingyuan, and Judy, blocking the path of the other party's group.
He looked at Feng Bao Bao and the others who were still fighting with the converters in the distance behind the three of them, as well as Barron, who was dealing with the 'tree men'. Then, he slowly looked at the three guys in front of him and said,
"I remember that Na Senwei is a foreign mutant mercenary organization. Are you protecting this fatty for money?"
As soon as he finished speaking …
Liu Xiaojiang looked at Judy, who was behind Liu Mingyuan and Ilya, and the other converters who had just run over with guns and seemed to want to support the three of them, so he said,
"Then … leave this fatty and the woman in charge of translation behind. The rest of you, turn around and leave this place. You can live."
Liu Xiaojiang didn't speak English, nor could he understand this bird language. However, with Judy present, she translated his words to Ilya at the same time.
At the same time …
"You …" Liu Mingyuan couldn't help but look a little flustered when he saw Liu Xiaojiang.
"You're Liu Zhenren? Why! Why are you here too! "
"Oh, you actually know me." Liu Xiaojiang looked at the unfamiliar bald fatty opposite him and said,
"The magic artifact you're wearing around your neck, and the swallowing sac you threw to the foreigner just now, are obviously made by Old Ma. Tell me … What do you want this time?"
"Liu, do you know him?" Ilya gripped his revolver tightly and looked at Liu Mingyuan beside him.
"I … I …" Liu Mingyuan stammered, the expression on his face extremely difficult.
When Liu Xiaojiang saw the expression on Liu Mingyuan's face, he immediately understood that it was impossible for him to get any important information from the other party, so he slowly raised his arm and said,
"Well, I got it. In that case … Then I can only blame your purpose for temporarily overlapping with mine."
The next second …
He waved his arm at Liu Mingyuan out of thin air.
An arm made of black and golden light appeared out of thin air and instantly whipped Liu Mingyuan's body, shattering the magic artifact on his body and slamming him fiercely into the stone wall beside him.
Bright red and white fireworks bloomed on the solid stone wall, and a strong smell of blood spread out.
The surrounding converters who saw Liu Xiaojiang's miserable state seemed to have stagnated the air in their bodies. They all looked at Liu Xiaojiang in horror, and some of them even couldn't help but vomit.
At this time, even the knowledgeable Ilya couldn't help but quickly point his gun at Liu Xiaojiang after understanding what had happened.
"You … What did you do?!"
"Tsk, don't say, it's really dirty fireworks …"
