498: Chapter 495: Accepting the Heritage!
Upon hearing this, Mo Jiuli raised an eyebrow.
She was currently located in the Sky Secret Realm!
Could this guy have entered the Sky Secret Realm tens of thousands of years ago and never left?
She remembered Di Minghan telling her that it was impossible to determine how long the Sky Secret Realm had existed, it could be tens of thousands of years, or even hundreds of thousands of years!
However, weren’t people who didn’t die in the secret realm supposed to be transported out when it closed?
So, was this individual in front of her someone who had died inside this realm, or was it something else?
“Were you killed in this secret realm?” Mo Jiuli asked directly.
“Secret realm?
What secret realm?” Lingyun asked in confusion upon hearing her words.
“You didn’t know this is the Sky Secret Realm?” Mo Jiuli was somewhat surprised; perhaps the Sky Secret Realm had a different name tens of thousands of years ago?
“Sky Secret Realm?
Are you talking about my Cave Mansion?” Lingyun really didn’t understand what this little girl was talking about.
“Not your Cave Mansion, but the place where your Cave Mansion is located!
Isn’t it called the Sky Secret Realm?” Mo Jiuli explained helplessly.
“How is that possible!
Little girl, the location of this Cave Mansion, also the palace outside, it’s called Lingyun Hall!
It was my residence when I was alive…” Lingyun said.
“Where is Lingyun Hall located?” Mo Jiuli felt that there was something wrong and asked with furrowed brows.
“Lingyun Hall is located atop Lingyun Peak, and beneath Lingyun Peak is Lingyun City!
Everything here was named after me as I lived here…” Lingyun arrogantly explained.
Hearing these words, Mo Jiuli was even more confused!
She looked at the transparent Lingyun in front of her and hesitantly asked: “The country, the continent where you live!”
“The continents you’re referring to are just low-level interfaces called continents!
The place where I live is known as the Divine World, with Lingyun City located within Xingchen Country in the Fifth Domain of the Divine World’s Eight Domains…” Lingyun said with a gleaming smile.
A hint of surprise flashed in Mo Jiuli’s eyes upon hearing these words, but it quickly faded away!
“I don’t know the place you’re talking about, but I know what this place is now!
It’s currently known as the Sky Secret Realm…” Mo Jiuli summarised her time inside the Sky Secret Realm and also dealings with the Lingtian Continent.
“How is this possible?
Little girl, how long have you been here?
What did you see on the outside before?” Lingyun asked, completely taken aback.
“Less than a month, besides the forest and grassland there is just this place…” Mo Jiuli told him truthfully.
After learning of Lingyun’s identity, her interest in the heritage he spoke of had indeed been slightly piqued!
“How is that possible?
How could Lingyun Peak possibly turn into a secret realm of a low-level continent?” Lingyun asked in shock.
Even if tens of thousands of years had passed, even if the Divine World went through countless upheavals, at most the structure of the Divine World would have changed!
How could a place belonging to the Divine World end up on these low-level continents?
He just couldn’t understand how it had come to this!
“Why should you care so much?
You’re dead, aren’t you?
What difference does it make where you are?” Mo Jiuli looked at the disheveled Lingyun floating in the wind and said, rather helplessly.
Those who are already deceased only have their souls left, what difference does it make where they are…
Lingyun stared at Mo Jiuli in silence.
Although it was true, did this girl need to be so blunt about it?
All he asked was because he didn’t understand…
However, upon consideration, it really didn’t matter that much to him!
As long as he could pass on his inheritance to this girl, he could then finally rest in peace…
“Ahem, little girl, aren’t you going to hurry up and swear fealty to me as your master?” Lingyun said seriously.
“No!” Mo Jiuli flatly refused again.
“Why not?
Don’t you want my inheritance?” Lingyun stared at Mo Jiuli, his blood boiling.
He had been talking to this little girl for so long!
Why on earth would she not agree to take him as her master?
“Since you’ve said this is the Inheritance Land, I think that even if I don’t take you as my master, once your soul disperses, I will still be able to obtain this inheritance…
So why would I need to swear fealty to you as my master?
And besides, what can you teach me other than array formations?
Even with regards to array formations, you’re simply leaving me with an inheritance, the comprehension will still be up to me.
Why should I swear fealty to you as my master?”
“You…” Mo Jiuli did not allow Lingyun to speak, instead interrupting him, “I think, obtaining your heritage won’t be free of charge!
If my guess is correct, it should also require helping you fulfil some wishes, right?
In that case, why do you need me to swear fealty to you?”
Lingyun looked at Mo Jiuli with surprise.
He hadn’t expected this little girl to be so astute!
She was indeed correct.
He did have unfulfilled wishes, so he had left a part of his memory at the end of his inheritance…
Only by helping him fulfill his wish would the one who obtained his inheritance truly receive everything…
His wish for Mo Jiuli to take his master was entirely due to his pride!
After all, he was once a renowned figure in the Divine World.
He wouldn’t want to simply pass his inheritance onto an outsider who could merely fulfill his wishes…
At the very least, that person should also be his own disciple.
That way, his name could live on eternally!
Who knew he would meet such a troublesome person in the end…
Mo Jiuli wasn’t in a rush either.
She looked at Lingyun with a playful smile, making him somewhat embarrassed.
Finally, he let out a light sigh, “Alright, if that’s what you want then you don’t need to consider me your master!
However, I hope you will help me fulfill my wish.”
“I can only promise to do my best.” Mo Jiuli said indifferently.
Lingyun carefully looked at Mo Jiuli.
Seeing her calm expression and steady eyes, he knew she was speaking the truth…
Even though this girl was somewhat arrogant, he had a positive impression of her!
Moreover, she really was the only one fated to meet him…
Forget it, he wouldn’t force anything now that she was the fated one…
With this thought, Lingyun’s soul slowly floated to the top of the skeleton!
He looked at Mo Jiuli and said, “Come and sit cross-legged here, I will assist you in absorbing the inheritance.
Consider it a reward for chatting with me!”
Upon hearing this, Mo Jiuli nodded and went to sit cross-legged opposite of the skeleton!
She saw Lingyun’s transparent hand lightly fall onto the skull…
After a moment, the skull began to slowly dissolve, followed by the bones beneath it.
Slowly, the skeleton in front of Mo Jiuli was refined bit by bit by Lingyun’s hand…
In an instant, a skeleton transformed into a blue light sphere!
Mo Jiuli also noticed that Lingyun’s soul had become more transparent!
The process of refining the skeleton was clearly not easy for him…
“Maintain your mind, resist not, and absorb naturally!” Lingyun’s voice echoed, and the blue light sphere in his hand fell onto Mo Jiuli’s head…
