"Congratulations, you've arrived at my true tomb." The Windcloud Martial Marquis laughed.
"You are the Windcloud Martial Marquis!"
Qing Fufeng cried out involuntarily as he looked at the Windcloud Martial Marquis' image.
"Correct, I am the Windcloud Martial Marquis."
"You are the second martial artist to come here. Similarly, you also have a chance. Have you seen the book in front of the praying mat? That is my absolute skill, the Wind and Cloud Mental Cultivation Method. As long as you can cultivate the Wind and Cloud Mental Cultivation Method to the seventh level, you will pass the test and receive my inheritance."
Qing Fufeng didn't have time to think about why Fang Chen was the first to enter. He directly sat down on the praying mat and began to comprehend the Windcloud Mantra.
"I've been cultivating the Azure Sky Alliance's illusion mantra for a long time. Although this Windcloud Mantra is difficult, I will definitely be the first to succeed." Qing Fufeng's face was filled with a confident smile.
Fang Chen had already been cultivating for a while. His mind was filled with the mantra of the Windcloud Mantra.
A mantra was a supplementary cultivation technique. Of course, some low level cultivation techniques didn't have any supplementary mantras.
The Windcloud Martial Marquis's absolute art was the Windcloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture. This was an extremely powerful cultivation technique. The Windcloud Martial Marquis had relied on this cultivation technique to successfully enter the Martial Marquis rankings and become a Martial Marquis that countless people revered.
And the supplementary mantra of the Windcloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture was the Windcloud Mantra.
The reason the Windcloud Martial Marquis had set the final test like this was because he had a deep understanding of the Windcloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture. Only by cultivating the Windcloud Mantra to the seventh level or higher would one be able to quickly cultivate the Windcloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture.
Time slowly passed. As Fang Chen and Qing Loufeng were cultivating, several other martial artists entered. The first one to enter was Ghost Sunflower. He was the same as Qing Loufeng, thinking that he was the first to enter. He hadn't thought that after entering, he would discover that he was the third.
After the Windcloud Martial Marquis gave a brief introduction, Gui Kui began to cultivate. The next to enter was Hai Wuwei, and the last to enter was Huang Zhen.
A total of six people entered. The other weaker martial artists were unable to enter and were directly eliminated by the Windcloud Martial Marquis.
These six people were the ones most likely to receive his inheritance. The Fengyun Martial Marquis had also discovered this point from the series of tests that he had gone through.
Apart from Fang Chen, there were five geniuses among the six warriors.
"I wonder who will accept my legacy."
The Martial Marquis of Wind and Cloud said faintly. However, when his eyes landed on Fang Chen, his expression suddenly changed.
This was because there was a black rat standing on Fang Chen's shoulder. Its two small eyes were blinking as it stared at the coffin in front of it.
"This …"
When the Windcloud Martial Marquis saw the Little Mouse, he was deeply shocked. His illusory face was filled with astonishment.
"Could it be that this is the legendary …"
The Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis was shocked. The first time he saw this Little Mouse, he realized that it was exactly the same as the legend.
"Why is it here?" The Fengyun Martial Marquis could not understand why this Little Mouse would follow a human, and this human was only at the 1st level of Qi Hai.
"Could it be that this young man has something that attracted the Little Mouse?" The Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis thought to himself.
It was obvious that the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis had heard of this Little Mouse's race. Of course, it was only a rumor because this Little Mouse's race was too heaven-defying. In the entire Ancient Sword Continent, there were only a few of them.
While the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis was still in shock, the Little Mouse jumped down from Fang Chen's shoulder with a 'sou' sound and jumped onto the coffin.
Ignoring the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis's illusory image, the Little Mouse drilled into the coffin and chirped loudly.
Originally, the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis wanted to stop it, but after thinking for a moment, he did not stop it and allowed the Little Mouse to jump around.
In the end, the Little Mouse took out a yellowed book from the coffin. On the cover of the book, there were a few bold and powerful words, Wind and Cloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture.
"This …"
Seeing this, the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis's illusory face was filled with helplessness. The Little Mouse had actually taken out his ultimate technique.
The Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis didn't stop it. The Little Mouse took the Wind and Cloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture and happily returned to Fang Chen's shoulder.
At this time, Fang Chen's mind was filled with an explosion. He realized that he had already cultivated the Wind and Cloud Mantra to the first level.
"Did I succeed in the first level?" Fang Chen thought to himself and then continued to cultivate.
As for Qing Loufeng and the others, their cultivation speed was clearly not as fast as Fang Chen's.
Time slowly passed. Because of the experience from the first level, Fang Chen's cultivation speed increased by quite a bit. Three days later, Fang Chen had reached the second level of the Wind and Cloud Mantra.
Third level, fourth level, fifth level …
By the time Fang Chen reached the sixth level of the Wind and Cloud Mantra, twenty days had already passed. In these twenty days, Fang Chen felt that his harvest was great.
The Wind and Cloud Mantra was broad and profound. Wanting to thoroughly understand it wasn't something that could be done in a short period of time.
When Fang Chen reached the sixth level of the Wind and Cloud Mantra, Qing Loufeng and the others had also reached the fifth level of the Wind and Cloud Mantra.
"Haha, I've finally reached the fifth level. The inheritance will definitely be mine." Qing Loufeng was incomparably excited.
Time slowly passed. The Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis had been paying attention to these six cultivators. During this process, he discovered a strange scene.
Every time Fang Chen reached a bottleneck, there would be an invisible aura that would allow Fang Chen to instantly break through the bottleneck.
"Just what is it? There seems to be a mysterious power on this kid's body." The Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis frowned.
Even he couldn't see through Fang Chen. This made him feel that Fang Chen was too mysterious.
However, when he thought about how the Little Mouse would follow Fang Chen, he was no longer curious.
In the blink of an eye, a month's time had passed. On this day, Fang Chen was the first to reach the seventh level of the Wind and Cloud Mantra.
Boom!
There was an explosion in his mind. In the next instant, Fang Chen discovered that the Wind and Cloud Mantra had reached the seventh level. His body was surrounded by an incomparably dense wind and cloud aura.
When Fang Chen opened his eyes, suddenly, beside Fang Chen, there was a loud explosion from Qing Loufeng's body. Qing Loufeng's eyes opened and his face was filled with joy.
"Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis, I'm the first to reach the seventh level of the Wind and Cloud Mantra. Will the inheritance belong to me?" Qing Loufeng anxiously asked.
As Qing Fufeng spoke, Gui Kui and the others opened their eyes one after another.
"Not good, Qing Loufeng actually finished cultivating." Gui Kui and the others were inwardly nervous. Qing Loufeng's cultivation speed was much faster than theirs.
"Not bad, you've all reached the seventh level." The Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis looked at the six of them with a smile.
"However, the first to reach the seventh level is him." The Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis pointed his finger at Fang Chen.
When the five heavenly geniuses looked over, their expressions changed. Their eyes were filled with a dense fiendish aura.
"How is that possible?" The five heavenly geniuses didn't believe that Fang Chen could cultivate faster than them.
"Originally, I thought that if you could all comprehend the seventh level, there would be a final test. But now, I think there's no need for that," said the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis.
"Then who will the inheritance belong to?" Qing Loufeng hastily asked.
"I, the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis, look down on the entire Golden Crown Nation. My life's lost arts are the Wind and Cloud Mantra and the Wind and Cloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture. Although you haven't obtained the inheritance, you've at least obtained the Wind and Cloud Mantra. It can be considered an opportunity," said the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis.
"Before I died, the inheritance I left behind here is my life's lost art, the Wind and Cloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture. Of course, there are also some of my insights into the Wind and Cloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture," continued the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis. But his eyes were looking at Fang Chen.
Fang Chen saw that the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis was looking at him. But in truth, the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis was looking at the Little Mouse on Fang Chen's shoulder.
"Yes."
Following the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis' gaze, Fang Chen was shocked to see that the Little Mouse was holding a yellowed book in its paws.
"Wind and Cloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture."
When Fang Chen saw the words on the yellowed book, his heart was filled with perilous waves. Just when had the Little Mouse obtained the Wind and Cloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture?
"The Wind and Cloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture has already been obtained by him. So this inheritance can only be given to him. You've all gained quite a bit from entering my tomb. You can all leave." The Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis waved his hand, and the five heavenly geniuses all disappeared from the tomb.
Suddenly, countless figures appeared in an open space within the Wind and Cloud Mountain Range. Following them were the five heavenly geniuses.
"Damnit, he actually obtained the inheritance. I refuse to accept this!" Qing Loufeng's eyes were filled with fury.
"That's right. A piece of trash actually wants to touch the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis' things. He's really courting death," said Gui Kui.
"Let's stop him here. I don't believe he won't come out."
The five heavenly geniuses instantly came to an agreement. They were prepared to stop Fang Chen here and force him to hand over the Wind and Cloud Heaven Extinguishing Scripture.
Then the five heavenly geniuses directly cleared the area. All the unrelated people were chased away. In the end, only the five of them remained.
"As long as he appears, he'll definitely die." Gui Kui's eyes were filled with killing intent.
At this time, Fang Chen was in the Ultimate Tomb, listening to the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis speak.
"Are you willing to accept my inheritance?" The Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis looked at Fang Chen.
"Junior is willing," said Fang Chen.
"If you accept my inheritance, you have to help me do something. Can you do it?" asked the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis.
"What is it?"
"Avenge me." Within the voice of the Fengyun Martial Marquis, there was a trace of sorrow as he said.
Fang Chen was startled, his face filled with confusion. The Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis wanted him to get revenge? Could it be that he had been killed by someone?
Seeing Fang Chen's confusion, the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis sighed. "Back then, my good friend and I obtained a priceless treasure together. That treasure is extremely precious to us Martial Marquises. Originally, we agreed to share it."
"However, one day, when I was cultivating with an Utmost Treasure, he ambushed me. Back then, I was severely injured and had to fight with my life to escape. After that, I escaped to this place. I was indignant. Before I died, I built a tomb here, hoping that one day, someone would be able to come here and obtain my inheritance to avenge me." The Martial Marquis of Wind and Cloud sank into his memories.
"Who ambushed you?" asked Fang Chen. Someone who could ambush the Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis definitely powerful.
