Chapter 1051: Do You Want To Inherit My Legacy?
Translator: Lordbluefire
Li Ziqi was engrossed in looking at the spirit runes and pondering their structure. She didn’t feel anything inappropriate.
As for Sun Mo, even if he didn’t have Divine Sight, he also felt a trace of discomfort right now.
His sharp sixth sense had sensed danger, and this caused him to feel nervous.
“How is it?” Bai Wenzhang teased.
“There seems to be a very terrifying thing inside!” Sun Mo spoke. (Even though I know it is very dangerous there, I can’t leave.)
This was the true secret of the Dragonspirit Manor. How many people would have the chance to see it?
After hearing this, Bai Wenzhang’s brows twitched. He then made an invitational gesture. If Sun Mo couldn’t decipher the spirit rune lock and couldn’t open the gate, it meant that there was no need for him to enter.
If he managed to accomplish it, it would mean that Bai Wenzhang’s decision was correct.
The three of them no longer spoke. They simply stood before the gate unmovingly.
After a total of four hours, Sun Mo then walked forward and punched the 11 o’clock direction.
Rumble!
The gate swung open.
“Do you know? Back then when I opened it, it took me six months.”
Bai Wenzhang felt gratified that his judgment wasn’t wrong. However, he also felt a little disappointed.
Because Sun Mo was too strong. He would simply crush everyone.
“Just luck.”
Sun Mo was modest.
He had had to do the repair operation for the experimental subjects, and the spirit runes on their bodies and the information about them were all crystallization of Bai Wenzhang’s research throughout his life.
This knowledge when compared to the spirit runes on the huge gate was a different method leading to the same result. If there were no unexpected incidents, this must be one of the root systems of the Dragonspirit Manor’s spirit runes.
“Haha!”
Bai Wenzhang clapped Sun Mo on his shoulders and took the lead to enter.
Li Ziqi followed behind Sun Mo. After entering, she saw that they were in a gigantic cave, and the walls in the surroundings were a type of transparent crystal.
They were emitting a type of light that caused the cave to be bright and warm.
“Could these be stones with radiation?”
Sun Mo felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
In nature, any luminescence substances should be radioactive.
(I haven’t had kids yet.)
Sun Mo wanted to leave already.
Leaving aside the problem of having kids, what if he could no longer erect in the future? What should he do?
The echoes of their footsteps were monotonous and uninteresting.
Suddenly, Li Ziqi cried out in surprise and her entire body subconsciously leaped forward, hugging Sun Mo’s arm as she trembled uncontrollably.
At the end of her vision, there was a crystal rampart over ten meters tall. And inside the rampart was a monster she had never seen before.
It didn’t have a head, but it had a face.
On its facial skin, some blood vessel-like fibers extended forward. The fibers then gathered and extended downward.
This should be its body.
It was like after a whale rotted, only their skeleton was left. The further down the skeleton, the thinner it was.
If one looked closely, one would even discover that there were strange patterns on the bones.
“Are you not shocked?”
Bai Wenzhang was curious.
Wasn’t Sun Mo’s mentality a little too calm?
When Bai Wenzhang had first entered here with his teacher, he had almost bitten off his tongue in shock.
“Still okay!’ Sun Mo chortled.
Wasn’t it just a creature? It still couldn’t be considered disgusting.
“My wish to research on spirit runes that can automatically repair themselves isn’t a baseless fantasy. It is because of this skeleton.”
Bai Wenzhang explained.
“Look at the pattern on the bones. They are alive. What I’m puzzled about now is whether they are parasites living in the body of this host in order to reproduce, or whether they were born from this skeleton.”
To Bai Wenzhang, the most unbearable thing wasn’t dying. It was to die with bewilderment.
“A…alive?”
Li Ziqi was shocked.
“Yes!”
Bai Wenzhang nodded. “Do you know how my teacher died? He restored these spirit runes on the bone, and he was ‘killed’ by them.”
Actually, before the dean of each generation died, they would solemnly tell their successor that they must abstain from involving themselves with this taboo. But as great ancestor-level spirit runists that stood at the peak of the Nine Provinces, who would be willing to give up on this type of research topic?
“Can the crystal around it be broken?”
Sun Mo used Divine Sight again. However, it still showed the words ‘unknown target’.
“Impossible!”
Bai Wenzhang explained. “Every ten years, one would be able to see with their naked eyes that this skeleton has grown longer. But they would shrink again after reaching a certain limit.”
The facial skin of that monster had no facial features, only a bizarre picture. But when Sun Mo glanced at it, he felt like he was staring at a beautiful eye. Even his mind was drawn in.
Li Ziqi boldly took a few steps forward, wanting to attentively observe those spirit runes on the bones. But just when she moved nearer, some of the fiber-like tentacles of the monsters suddenly rose dramatically.
Swish~ Swish~ Swish~
The tentacles were like sharp arrows, wanting to pierce the little sunny egg.
Pak!
Sun Mo’s reaction was very quick. He grabbed the back of Li Ziqi’s clothes with one hand and dragged her along as he retreated rapidly.
Rumble!
The fiber-like tentacles pierced through the crystal and shot out, chasing after Li Ziqi. But before they could touch her, the crystal seemed to come to life. They directly erupted with growth, freezing over and sealing the tentacles.
“Dean, what’s going on?”
Sun Mo frowned.

“I didn’t expect Li Ziqi’s attributes to match with it!”
Bai Wenzhang was astonished. “From my research, this is a spirit rune monster. It can live in Li Ziqi’s body like a parasite!”
“Let’s go!”
Sun Mo wished to leave now.
He was worried Bai Wenzhang would want to use the little sunny egg as an experiment. After all, they were in Bai Wenzhang’s territory, and Bai Wenzhang could be considered as an extremely powerful mad scientist. If his malicious thoughts about Li Ziqi appeared, Sun Mo knew he wouldn’t be able to stop Bai Wenzhang.
“Teacher Sun, you are worrying too much. Although my treatment of friends cannot be considered as total devotion, I’m still a good teacher and a helpful friend.”
Bai Wenzhang consoled him. “Besides, it’s too much of a waste to use a genius student like Li Ziqi for an experiment.”
The unspoken implication was that if Li Ziqi wasn’t outstanding enough, she might be sacrificed.
Next, Bai Wenzhang led Sun Mo into the treasury.
Over here, there was no gold or silver. It was filled with various spirit runes.
“These are the ancient spirit runes of the highest level that the dean of each generation collected over a few thousand years. There are a total of 13,267 spirit runes in this place. Those on the left have already been deciphered, but the ones in the middle and right side have not.”
Bai Wenzhang explained.
The more Li Ziqi listened, the more she felt something was wrong.
This feeling felt like a child was boasting about his toys to his friends?
After that, Bai Wenzhang brought Sun Mo and Li Ziqi to the display room.
The spirit runes here were all masterpieces of the Dragonspirit Manor.
“Research is very expensive, so where does the money we need come from?”
Bai Wenzhang touched a spirit rune and smiled with confidence and pride. “This is the answer.”
“This spirit rune has an electric shock effect. After tattooing it over one’s left chest, when the person dies, it will automatically release an electric current to shock the heart.”
“An artificial pacemaker for the heart?” Sun Mo’s lips twitched. “The research done by you guys is really high-end!”
“What’s that?”
Bai Wenzhang felt some curiosity over Sun Mo’s strange term. After Sun Mo finished explaining, he shook his head. “This spirit rune’s effect is not completely the same as what you mentioned. Regardless of the person dying or not, as long as they had this spirit rune tattooed, they would be able to regain their senses and persist in living for a few more minutes.
“Although the time isn’t long, it’s enough for them to relay their last words or to do a last-ditch struggle, causing their enemy to perish together with them.
“Usually speaking, this spirit rune is used on the death warriors protecting the major characters.”
Major characters loved this spirit rune the most. It was like a security guard and gave you two lives in a sense. Although the duration of the second life was very short, you could still do a lot of things within those few extra minutes.
Sun Mo was shocked. “So magical?”
“This is a masterpiece that was created after our 6th Dean did research on the spirit runes on that monster skeleton.”
Bai Wenzhang explained.
“Impressive!”
Sun Mo was really convinced.
After thinking of how the strongest great ancestor-level spirit runists in the Nine Provinces always had a dean of the Dragonspirit Manor counted among them, Sun Mo could understand how terrifying the manor’s foundations were.
Let alone 1,000 years, even the accumulated products and knowledge of three hundred years would already be an astronomical number that everyone would covet enviously.
Maybe this manor couldn’t surpass the Nine Greats in terms of comprehensive strength. By just on the subject of the study of spirit runes alone, it was definitely among the top.
There was no need to doubt it.
“Don’t you want such an awesome inheritance?”
Bai Wenzhang suddenly spoke, causing Sun Mo and Li Ziqi, who were still feeling envious, to be startled.
“Mn?”
Sun Mo looked at Bai Wenzhang. “Dean, please do not joke!”
“My time is so precious, how would I be in the mood to make a joke?”
Bai Wenzhang shook his head.
Putong! Putong!
Li Ziqi’s heartbeat involuntarily sped up.
This…
This was a meat pie falling from the sky!
No!
This was gold falling from the sky, the type where golden rain covered the entire earth.
After seeing Sun Mo’s look of disbelief, Bai Wenzhang grew solemn. “I can use my word to guarantee that if you wish to inherit this inheritance, I will pass the position of the dean to you.”
“Why?”
Sun Mo didn’t understand. (I’ve seen affluent-second-generations before, but they were not as ‘ruthless’ as you.)
“This manor isn’t like a clan’s business. The meaning of its existence isn’t to accumulate wealth or to rule the world. It is purely for the sake of researching the study of spirit runes to the absolute limits.”
Bai Wenzhang stared at the masterpieces filling the treasury.
“When we select a new dean, the previous dean won’t look at their personal relationship but rather at the candidate’s character and talent. Naturally, it would be for the best if that person is the previous dean’s personal student. But it is really a pity that my personal students of this generation are not up to the mark.”
As he spoke until here, Bai Wenzhang was especially disappointed.
If his disciples were a little more outstanding, he wouldn’t have chosen Sun Mo.
Sun Mo fell silent.
Honestly speaking, he didn’t dare to agree!
It was like picking up $10 bucks on the ground. No one would think of returning that to the owner. They would rather use the money to add additional ingredients to their meal instead. However, now there was a wealthy person who suddenly said that he admired you and wanted you to become the successor to his inheritance!
Right, the wealthy person was a multi-billionaire.
Who would dare to agree?!
Sun Mo’s first reaction was, ‘Bai Wenzhang, have you gone mad? Or are you teasing me?’
“Naturally, I can give you the inheritance, but you have to also take on the corresponding responsibility. You have to maintain the standard of the study of spirit runes of the manor at the supreme-tier, number one in the Nine Provinces.”
Bai Wenzhang looked at Sun Mo and spoke with a solemn tone, “If you can’t do it, don’t agree.”
“My mind is very chaotic now!”
Sun Mo was indeed panicking a little. In both his lifetimes, he had never endured such heavy responsibilities before.
“No rush, I still have some time.” Bai Wenzhang turned and left. “Let’s go, I still have a small gift for you.”
After Sun Mo exited, Li Ziqi was still standing in her original location with a sluggish look on her face.
There was no solution as this impact was truly too great.
(As long as Teacher nods, he will become the boss of the supreme-tier Dragonspirit Manor, renowned throughout the Nine Provinces?)
Li Ziqi still had no way to believe. Wasn’t Bai Wenzhang too much of a ‘prodigal son’?
