The black clothed cultivator did not say anything, instead he sized up Su TingYun with a glance and then he got up and cupped his hands before saying: ‘This fellow daoist just came out of seclusion?’

Su TingYun returned a greeting, ‘It is indeed so. How may I address this fellow daoist?’

‘ZhanYu of Obliteration Sword Tower.’

‘Lose cultivator Su TingYun.’ Su TingYun also revealed her identity, only to see ZhanYu laugh, ‘HeHe, fellow cultivator Su TingYun does look like you had just broke into building foundation stage, since you had already come to the Refinement islands, why don’t you take a look around here?’

He raised his head and took a look at the colour of the sky and then said: ‘It is almost time.’

His voice turned soft, the dark blue sea water surged forth, sea foam was hitting the little island they were on. Su TingYun turned her head and was just in time to see many big and small water columns break the sea surface, the deep blue water column rushed into the sky, looking magnificent.

It created a fog in the surrounding environment. The surface of the sea looked like it came out of a fairytale.

ZhanYu did not expect that what he just said would immediately turn into reality. He gave off a self deprecating laugh, destroying the mysterious image he put on for Su TingYun.

‘What are these things?’

ZhanYu inferred that Su TingYun was not trying to act dumb. He confirmed that she knew nothing, so he explained in a long winded manner.

‘Ten years ago, the new disciples of WuLiang sect went to the training islands to temper themselves. In the end, the training island flipped over and a mysterious inheritance appeared!’

This Su TingYun knew, she even knew that there were plenty of magical treasures inside too, but they would disappear after three days after being taken away.

‘The inheritance is around five hundred li in this sea.’

Her mental energy at the building foundation stage could not extend to five hundred li, so Su TingYun did not realise the inheritance. If not, she could find her own bearings.

Initially, countless people wanted to pursue the truth of the inheritance, but the result was they ended up returning empty handed. This made the spear head point towards WuLiang sect because everyone thought they were hiding information. This was one of the reasons for the decline of WuLiang sect. Of course, the more important point was the backing of WuLiang sect passed away.’ Speaking to this point, ZhanYu’s face was filled with sadness as he continued, ‘This inheritance sure is hard.’

XiaoBu who was behind him held the sword in his arms, his head jerked downwards. His lower jaw hit the hilt of the sword, it was so painful that it made him suck in a mouthful of cool air.

It was obvious that Obliteration Sword Tower was a cultivation school, it merely just had fewer members. This made them sigh with regret.

WuLiang sect’s Supreme elder fleshy body had been burned by her, but his primordial spirit might not be injured. But from what they were implying, did his primordial spirit also die?

‘That supreme elder was really dead, he was a tribulation transcendent too……’

How could you blame him, his sole disciple was the first one to set the example by leaving the sect too! Tsk Tsk, raising such an unf……’

ZhangYu should be scolding someone, but his expression slightly changed and the final curse words did not leave his mouth.

XiaoBu followed suit and added: ‘Naturally, humans advance to be better, and the river flows towards lower grounds*.’

Hearing what ZhanYu said, Su TingYun instead confirmed that supreme elder’s primordial spirit might not have dissipated. If it was Su LiJiang, he would not do something like this. In other words, Su LiJiang should be dead by now.

Thinking till this point, Su TingYun felt some disappointment.

‘He originally is a weak willed person, if not why would his cultivation go berserk?’

‘Berserk?’ Su TingYun cried out in alarm, ‘Spiritual master LingWu really went berserk?’

‘It just happened one to two days ago, HaoYue sect leader’s daughter had always liked him, just two days ago there was a large wedding at HaoYue sect. On the wedding night, he went berserk and injured Ruan QingShuang before escaping from HaoYue sect. Even until today, the whole HaoYue has not found him yet!’

‘That Ruan QingShuang really is infatuated with him. She even wanted the pursuers to not injure him. Now BaiYue cult, those demonic worshipers even made an announcement. If Su LiJiang joins BaiYue cult, he will be conferred as their left hand man.’

Beating up the bride on their wedding night might not mean that he had gone berserk. Could this mean that Su LiJiang’s primordial spirit is still alive?

At this moment, she heard ZhanYu add: ‘If we could get QianJi pavilion to give us even one line of information, the whereabouts of Su LiJiang could be uncovered.’

‘QianJi pavilion?’

‘What the heck, fellow daoist, which mountain did you close up on, you even don’t know about QianJi pavilion.’ The one who replied was XiaoBu. When he talked about QianJi pavilion, a sparkle could be seen in his eyes, it was obvious that he adored QianJi pavilion.

‘QianJi pavilion is both omniscient and omnipresent, the death of WuLiang sect’s supreme elder was announced by them, and no one questioned the integrity of the intelligence. Did you know, when my master was practicing his Sword, his sword poked through a jade slip that appeared out of nowhere. In the jade slip, it stated the incidents of WuLiang sect which caused master to get so stirred up that he nearly dropped his sword.’

XiaoBu had cut into the conversation when his master was speaking. After he finished speaking, ZhanYu’s face already turned black. He gave XiaoBu a stare before turning his attention back to Su TingYun. He raised his hands to pat his head two times before saying: ‘I almost forgot about this, your arrival had made my mind sidetrack.’

‘Three years ago, a formation master found out that the underside of refinement island was a facade, the inheritance was actually a virtual image, this means that the inheritance itself was too strong, such that a virtual image could form in reality. This was the real reason why the magical treasures could not last three days before dissipating after leaving the inheritance.’

‘After understanding that, this area of sea started to have these beautiful phenomena.’ ZhanYu pointed at those big and small water columns. He smiled and said: ‘The six super factions call it– Rising Dragon Pillar.’
