    Chapter Index

    The black wind, like a serpent, coiled around Yu Xian’s body before gradually subsiding and merging with the surrounding black mist.

    Yu Xian frowned slightly.

    It’s still not enough.

    Is it that you can’t grasp the concept, or that you lack the necessary understanding?

    But Yu Xian had already seen through the fluctuations of the wind around him; his comprehension was sufficient!

    So what’s left is the understanding of the wind.

    Once he reaches a certain level of understanding, the information left behind by the powerful figure will be triggered and transmitted, thus completing the trial.

    Yu Xian slowly closed his eyes, no longer looking at the fluctuations of black mist in front of him.

    Although it was dark before his eyes, he could clearly “see” the wind moving, constantly changing and flowing.

    When the wind is gentle, it is like a soft hand caressing your face; when it is violent, it is like the collapse of heaven and earth!

    A gentle breeze can be heartbreaking.

    The fierce wind ravaged my body.

    The black wind corrodes the bones.

    Calamity Wind Annihilates Gods!

    After an unknown amount of time, Yu Xian raised his hand and pointed: “Wind! Strong wind!”

    Whoosh!

    The billowing black mist rose again, transforming into a violent gale that emitted a piercing howl and roar. The wind was like a blade, spinning endlessly and stirring up all directions!

    Hua Yuandu, Shen Ce, and Wei Yun were all startled and opened their eyes to look at where Yu Xian was!

    The howling wind rushed out for an unknown distance before gradually dissipating, with faint whispers of wind still echoing in the black mist.

    Hua Yuandu’s eyes flickered as he watched Yu Xian unleash this whirlwind attack. He seemed to understand something and suddenly shouted, “So that’s how it is! So that’s how it is!”

    After saying that, he closed his eyes again, and a whirlwind quickly rose around his body.

    Shen Ce and Wei Yun were completely bewildered. What? So that’s how it is?

    Is that so? How come we can’t see anything?

    Is their aptitude and understanding really that different?

    The two of them could still work hard over time and eventually figure out the “Mountain” technique.

    But this “Wind” technique…

    The two of them really didn’t have any insights at all, or even the slightest feeling!

    These two geniuses, one has already cast the spell and the other has fully comprehended it, it’s only a matter of time before they unleash it!

    The great law was right in front of them, yet the two of them could hardly grasp it. This feeling of being destined to meet but not to be together was driving them crazy!

    At that moment, the two suddenly understood a sentence.

    Even abundant rain cannot nourish rootless grass.

    The Tao is profound, but it cannot save those who are not destined to follow it.

    They are people who are not meant to be.

    That’s it, the rootless grass!

    Their eyes twitched, and Shen Ce and Wei Yun clenched their fists. They looked at each other and saw the resentment and madness in each other’s eyes.

    Why should I?!

    Why can’t we do it?!

    Both of them gritted their teeth and stared at the billowing black mist ahead, their eyes bloodshot!

    Look again, look again!

    It will definitely work! It will definitely work!!

    Yu Xian slowly withdrew his hand, his expression calm, but a faint light flickered in his eyes.

    At that moment, he heard a voice.

    “You are the second person to comprehend my Wind Word Technique, and you have received the second inheritance reward from my third trial.”

    I was the second to realize this…

    The first one is already obvious.

    It must be that heavy rain!

    A streak of light flew out from the black mist and landed in front of Yu Xian. When the light dissipated, it revealed a pale purple folding fan.

    The folding fan shimmered slightly, as if giving guidance. Yu Xian understood after a moment’s thought and looked at Hua Yuandu, saying, “I’ll go out and wait for you.”

    Hua Yuan has already grasped the essence of the Wind Technique and will soon be able to comprehend the spells on his own, at which point he will naturally be able to fly away as well.

    Shen Ce and Wei Yun, however, remained silent, and it was unclear when they would make any progress.

    Yu Xian looked at the two of them again and said calmly, “Are you coming out with me, or are you waiting for Hua Yuan to take you out?”

    Their eyes were bloodshot as they stared intently ahead, completely ignoring Yu Xian’s words.

    At this moment, the two of them were desperately trying to comprehend the truth, and had already entered a state of being indifferent to external things.

    This is indeed a kind of opportunity.

    Therefore, the difference in aptitude among cultivators can be as vast as the difference between heaven and earth, a fate ordained by heaven that is difficult for human effort to change.

    But in terms of comprehension, the difference is definitely not that big!

    It all depends on whether you… work hard enough, whether you’re willing to give it your all!

    In fact, many people say, “I have worked very hard and tried my best, so why haven’t I gotten what I want yet?”

    Actually, this statement is just deceiving yourself.

    You didn’t work that hard or that desperately, that’s all.

    So either lie down and coast along.

    If you’re not willing to give up, then go all in! No pain, no gain!

    Yu Xian looked at the two of them, his eyes flashing slightly. He deeply understood their current state.

    Very good, very good!

    With a slight nod, Yu Xian said no more, lest he disturb the two. With a flick of his fan, the fan vanished instantly, and he followed, heading into the depths of the black mist.

    With the fan leading the way, things became much easier amidst the swirling black mist. In just over ten breaths, the area ahead suddenly brightened, and Yu Xian followed the fan out.

    A bright and clear view greets you, with a sliver of sky behind you. Nothing seems to have changed, except that the direction has been reversed from where you came in.

    The fan stopped, hovering in front of Yu Xian, still shimmering with a faint light.

    The fan itself was a magical artifact. Yu Xian reached out, grasped it, and refined it, thus understanding its purpose.

    say:

    The spirit remains still as the wind and clouds swirl; the divine essence emanates from the body, making one appear like an immortal.

    Lingxu Fan.

    A sixth-tier medium-level magic weapon, modeled after an ancient spiritual treasure, made from the Divine Void Fan, belonging to the category of magic weapons that allow one to escape into the void, and possessing extremely high speed.

    “Rewarding someone with a fan for ‘fanning the wind’ and gaining insight into the secrets of wind’ is quite reasonable.”

    After Yu Xian finished refining it, he smiled calmly, flipped his hand to put away the Spirit Void Fan, and then looked ahead.

    Ahead, the land was covered with trees, but unfortunately, they were all withered and yellow, devoid of life.

    At first glance, instead of feeling refreshing, it evokes a sense of eerie stillness.

    Yu Xian frowned slightly and landed.

    Wind, Fire, Mountain and Forest.

    Unsurprisingly, this is where the insights into the “Lin” principle lie.

    Yu Xian stepped into the withered forest, glanced around, and did not find Gao Yu.

    Could it be that the woman has grasped the essence of the “Lin” technique again and entered the next level?

    That woman’s comprehension was extraordinary. If you were to say that she had already grasped the Lin character technique and entered the next level, Yu Xian would believe it.

    However, this thought was quickly dismissed by Yu Xian.

    Whether others advance to the next level is not important. Even if Gao Yu obtains the inheritance, it is what she deserves.

    What I need to do is to wholeheartedly and fully appreciate the legacy before me.

    As I said before, he understood when he was seven years old that cultivation is all about cultivating oneself!

    However, should the Forest Technique be comprehended outside the dense forest, or should one enter the dense forest?

    First, observe from the outside to see if there is anything mysterious about it. If it doesn’t work after a few days, then enter the forest to try and comprehend it.

    With these thoughts in mind, Yu Xian reached out and took out the jade pendant fragment he had obtained from Mu Hanling, holding it in his palm.

    When he was comprehending the Wind Technique in the black mist, he had forgotten about this jade pendant fragment that could increase the success rate of comprehension.

    Only now did he realize that the jade pendant fragment was ownerless, unlike Hua Yuandu’s, which had an owner.

    Why not refine it completely? If it can become your master, wouldn’t a 30% chance be great?

    Even if it can’t be refined, having a ten or twenty percent enhancement is still good.

    The jade pendant was broken into four pieces, and the one in Yu Xian’s hand was the bottom left piece.

    Holding it in his hand, Yu Xian lifted his robe and sat cross-legged, channeling spiritual energy into it to begin refining it.

    This jade pendant fragment originally belonged to Mu Hanling, but Mu Hanling is dead, and it has become ownerless.

    At this moment, as Yu Xian channeled his spiritual energy into it, it immediately shone brightly, but it was not immediately refined by Yu Xian.

    Clearly, it was judging Yu Xian’s aptitude, whether he was qualified to refine it and make it recognize him as its master.

    About ten breaths later, the jade pendant was still shining faintly and had not been refined by Yu Xian. It seemed that it was not satisfied with Yu Xian’s aptitude.

    Before Yu Xian established his foundation, he only had a low-grade wood spirit root.

    Even if one were to ascend to immortality and have their spiritual root advance to a superior-grade wood spiritual root, a mere superior-grade wood spiritual root is utterly insignificant.

    Even though Yu Xian later achieved perfect foundation building without taking the Foundation Building Pill and relied on his own comprehension, receiving a trace of the rules of heaven and earth as a blessing, the width of his Qi Sea and the purity of his spiritual energy could only be considered good. There was still a considerable gap between him and those geniuses.

    Yu Xian frowned slightly and began to increase the amount of spiritual energy he was transferring.

    Try again for thirty breaths. If the jade pendant still refuses to recognize its owner, then give up.

    After all, this jade pendant is just a token left behind by that powerful person, not some kind of divine artifact. The array inside it can only be activated when the refiner reaches a certain level of aptitude.

    So wasting time on it is pointless.

    Thirty breaths passed quickly, and the jade pendant fragments were still only emitting light, but had not been refined by Yu Xian.

    Seeing this, Yu Xian smiled and said, “You’re such a snob. You think you’re no good if you’re not talented? Well, I won’t force you then.”

    Having said that, Yu Xian was about to stop transferring spiritual energy.

    But even Yu Xian didn’t notice that the Yusheng jade pendant on his chest flickered slightly.

    Immediately, Yu Xian sensed something different about this jade pendant fragment—a connection of minds.

    It has been refined!

    “My name is King Zheng Cheng, a cultivator at the Returning to the Void realm. I originally intended to achieve true Dao integration and ascend to the Immortal Realm, but alas, my fate is sealed by calamity, and I cannot escape death. I leave behind a legacy in one place, which may be inherited by those descendants with profound blessings. If they achieve immortality in the future, I earnestly hope that they will seek my true spirit in the endless cycle of reincarnation and awaken me… I thank you in gratitude…”

    A voice rang out, and then Yu Xian felt a spiritual power emanating from the jade pendant.

    This dynamic power encompassed various elements; Yu Xian immediately sensed the Mountain Technique and the Wind Technique.

    “So it was just the prelude.”

    Yu Xian sensed this spiritual energy, which contained various points of the Wind, Fire, Mountain and Forest, clearly belonging to the trigger.

    With this guiding principle, one can appreciate the essence of wind, fire, mountains, and forests, and naturally gain a 30% advantage.

    However, the introduction is just an introduction. If you don’t have enough understanding, even if you are given the introduction, you won’t know how to comprehend it.

    “Could you perhaps have a spirit?”

    Looking at the jade pendant fragment in his hand that had recognized him as its owner, Yu Xian smiled faintly and said, “I only made a sarcastic remark to you, and you’ve already recognized it as your owner? Are you implying that I’m the one who’s a snob? Hahaha.”

    Yu Xian chuckled, exhaled, and muttered to himself, “King Zheng Cheng… even a Void Returning Grandmaster died so easily. It seems the path of cultivation is always fraught with danger. One can never be complacent upon reaching any realm, because there will always be someone stronger than you, who could crush you at any moment…”

    “However, if I truly inherit your legacy, if one day I truly achieve that illusory and ethereal immortal path that only exists in legends, if I truly have the ability… then I will seek out your true spirit and awaken you from the cycle of reincarnation.”

    Yu Xian looked calmly at the dense forest ahead and muttered to himself again.

    Having said that, Yu Xian abandoned all distracting thoughts, looked at the dense forest ahead, held the fragment of the jade pendant in his hand, and began to comprehend it with that little spark of inspiration.

    Wind, Fire, Mountain and Forest.

    The Mountain Technique is about power, with great force and weight. Compared to magic, it is more suitable for physical cultivation. It is likely that when King Zheng Cheng created this method, although it was a dual cultivation method, he must have focused on physical cultivation.

    The Wind Technique is an offensive technique, swift as thunder, with boundless killing power. The black wind that blows can slice flesh and corrode bones, blowing everything to death!

    So the Fire Technique should be pure magical killing power, extremely fierce!

    Based on this, could this “Forest” formula be interpreted as a “Wood” formula?

    Primarily focused on protection, restoration, and recuperation?

    As Yu Xian watched the dense forest swaying slowly, half an hour later, he suddenly slapped his forehead.

    “Lin, why are you messing around with wood? Lin is too fast! I almost went astray…”

    Once you understand this, the way the trees sway in front of you becomes different. They seem to be swaying in the wind, but in reality, they are a manifestation of a certain pattern.

    As the first tree swayed, the last tree also swayed. The two trees were a full ten miles apart, yet the vibrations traveled instantly without any delay!

    This is a technique of escape!

    Yu Xian’s eyes flashed, and the dense forest in front of him had transformed into an incomparably mysterious fluctuation.

    Operating in this way, one can take a step and not know the distance!

    Lin Dong immediately moved!

    “The Forest Formula…”

    Yu Xian raised his hand and pinched slightly, trying to grasp that fluctuation. His mind became clearer and clearer.

    “Haha, I’m out!”

    Before Yu Xian could grasp that feeling, a loud laugh came from the sky, causing Yu Xian to be slightly distracted, and that feeling vanished without a trace.

    Hua Yuandu emerged from the sky behind him, his face full of pride. He glanced around and spotted Yu Xian, then quickly flew over.

    “So, what’s this fourth challenge? Is it this dead forest? Have you figured anything out?”

    Hua Yuandu came to Yu Xian’s side, looking at the withered dense forest in front of him, talking as he looked.

    Yu Xian took a deep breath, turned to look at him, and said helplessly, “Can’t you just come over quietly? What about the other two?”

    “Oh, they’ve gained some insight and have already grasped the mysteries of the Wind Word Technique. As for whether they can fully comprehend it later, that depends on their own comprehension. I didn’t force them to come out; they came out on their own first. Anyway, once they’ve grasped the Wind Word Technique, they can come out on their own.”

    Hua Yuan waved his hand and continued looking at the dense forest, saying, “What exactly is this? You’ve been out for an hour and a half, haven’t you figured anything out yet?”

    “If I’m not mistaken, it should be the Forest Technique, a speed-type spell. You can observe the changes in the forest. I can’t explain the mysteries within; you’ll have to figure it out yourself.”

    Although he was disturbed by Hua Yuandu, Yu Xian couldn’t say anything. He could only tell Hua Yuandu what he had realized, saving him the time of figuring it out himself.

    Upon hearing this, Hua Yuandu’s eyes lit up with joy, and he rubbed his hands together, laughing, “Impressive, impressive! Now I have to admit that you are indeed a little bit smarter than me.”

    He then sat cross-legged, carefully gazing at the dense forest ahead, and began to contemplate the matter.

    With Yu Xian’s guidance, he saved himself a lot of time from trial and error and even getting lost, and could go straight to the mysteries of speed.

    Yu Xian shook his head, revealing a helpless bitter smile, and continued to look into the dense forest, slowly trying to grasp that feeling again.

    The two were completely absorbed in this realization.

    After an unknown amount of time, Yu Xian and Hua Yuan suddenly changed their expressions at the same time, raising their hands to form a hand seal: “Lin Character Seal!”

    The next moment, a mysterious energy surrounded the two of them. They glanced at each other and took a step forward in unison!

    In an instant, the two of them left a trail of afterimages, like a row of dense forests, flying more than 500 feet before suddenly stopping.

    And escaped into the air for over five hundred feet.

    In just three breaths!
