Chapter 1389: The Sword Monument’s Inheritance

Lu Yin had come to the Liu family in order to find the opportunity to capture one of their members, so it was best to start off on the best terms possible in order to avoid the worst ending.

Lu Yin only rose after enough time had passed for a full incense stick to burn. As he rose, his face appeared solemn, though a fanatic and respectful gleam had appeared in his eyes. He stepped forward and entered within ten meters of the Sword Monument. He then looked up and stared at the Sword Monument.

Far away, Long Kui was relaxing while observing the situation. The moment that Lu Yin locked eyes onto the Sword Monument, Long Kui looked away.

He assumed that there was no chance of Lu Yin gaining anything from the monument. Looking along the river of time, how many people had managed to gain anything at all from the Sword Monument?

The Liu family had hundreds of thousands of people, and that was only at present. They had protected the Sword Monument for countless generations, and they had produced countless brilliant talents. Not even Junior Progenitor Long Tian had gained even the slightest bit from the Sword Monument, so it was impossible for Long Qi to succeed.

No one believed that Lu Yin would receive an inheritance. The members of the Liu family all quietly trained around the Sword Monument, completely ignoring Lu Yin. After all, he was just passing through.

The only one paying attention to him was Liu Tianmu. She had approached from behind and was quietly watching Lu Yin from a distance. The other people in this place might not be familiar with Lu Yin, but Liu Tianmu knew him quite well. Lu Yin had a talent that would be considered anywhere he went, and most importantly, he seemed to frequently stumble upon opportunities that others could not even imagine. Liu Tianmu had always felt that Lu Yin would raise a commotion anywhere he went.

The facts ended up proving her suspicions valid, as the Sword Monument began to glow.

Zhang Dingtian was the first person to notice that the Sword Monument had begun to glow, and his eyes flashed. So Lu Yin really had managed to receive an inheritance.

All of the nearby members of the Liu family stood up and stared at the Sword Monument in shock. It was actually glowing?

At this time, an old man emerged from the void and looked down at Lu Yin. The elder said in clear praise, “This is the good fortune of my human race.”

Everyone who managed to receive an inheritance from the Sword Monument would create a commotion.

The Sword Monument released a glow that could be seen from millions of miles away, and countless people knelt down to worship.

Long Kui’s mouth fell open in surprise; the kid had actually received an inheritance? Hell, not even the Junior Progenitor Long Tian had pulled that off!

Beneath the Sword Monument, Lu Yin was witnessing a strange sight at this time. While his body stood still, his mind seemed to be pulled into the monument. He saw a brilliant, broken region of space. He looked off into the endless distance, and his gaze shattered the void. He saw someone crush the past, present, and future with a single palm. He saw someone lock down a vast region with a formation. He saw a countless number of battle techniques. Each and every single thing that Lu Yin saw was shocking, but finally he saw a black scythe that slashed through the void to fall in front of him.

He was very familiar with this dark scythe. This was the weapon he had used when using the God of Death’s Transformation. One slash of this scythe had killed Jin He, and had overwhelmed all of the top ten in ZENITH.

Lu Yin had not imagined that he would see that black scythe in this place.

The scythe was only about 100 meters away from Lu Yin, but even though he wanted to get closer to it, only his mind was present, and he was not able to move.

Suddenly, a dark figure began to take shape, and it raised a hand to grab the scythe. Ripples began to spread out, and it was impossible to know how far they spread.

At this same time, ripples began to spread out from the Sword Monument, radiating in all directions.

Many of the members of the Liu family looked up in shock. “The Sword Monument is actually giving off a phenomenon? Just what did that kid receive?”

Right after that, the Sword Monument suddenly went dark, as did the entire surroundings. There was a single flash of light, and it looked like someone from eons past had stepped through time and delivered this slash.

This slash caused countless people to tremble, and it drew the attention of several eyes. The slash fell from the top of the Perennial World and caused a huge commotion.

After the attack passed by, the dark sky returned to normal. However, what was different from before were the many experts from the Liu family who had appeared around the Sword Monument. In front of all of them was a hunched old man who stared at Lu Yin with a curious expression on his face.

Everyone from the Liu family stared blankly at Lu Yin’s back; just what had he received? Whatever it was, it had produced a phenomenon, and the phenomenon had altered the skies for a moment.

Off in the distance, Long Kui gasped. He was no longer belittling Long Qi who was still staring at the Sword Monument. It was clear that the youth was receiving something incredible.

The area returned to a peaceful state, yet Lu Yin remained standing beneath the Sword Monument, staring at what he was being given.

Three days passed while he remained in this state.

For these three days, Lu Yin had watched the figure wield the black scythe. Not once had the figure repeated a single move. How many movements had Lu Yin seen over the course of three days? He could not even estimate it himself. How could a single weapon have so many techniques?

Lu Yin was almost in a state of shock. He was not really learning anything from this, and was only observing endless movements with a weapon. It seemed to be a process of instruction that was also an attempt to confirm something.

In the outside world, people became more and more shocked by Lu Yin.

There was no particular rule to how long it took to receive an inheritance from the Sword Monument, but most people would return to their senses immediately after receiving an inheritance. For people who were lucky enough to trigger a phenomenon from the Sword Monument, it was rare for them to take even two days to wake.

Liu Hao was the most talented member of the Liu family in the current generation, and yet he had only been occupied by the inheritance for three and a half days. The most shocking youth of the current generation had been the Celestial Frost Sect’s Junior Progenitor Bai Shaohong, but it was looking like Long Qi might surpass even Bai Shaohong!

On the fourth day of being lost in the inheritance, Lu Yin noticed that the figure finally stopped wielding the black scythe. Instead, a sword appeared, which startled Lu Yin. Was there also going to be an inheritance related to the sword?

Lu Yin watched as the figure moved through a sword skill. This one clearly did not affect the outside world, yet Lu Yin inexplicably felt that this sword skill was absolutely terrifying, though he could not say why. Suddenly, the sword blade broke as Lu Yin watched. A realization flashed like lightning through his mind, and he saw that where the sword had broken coincided exactly with where the black scythe had passed during a certain move. The two images matched together perfectly.

Could these movements be a reenactment?

After the sword broke, a dagger appeared in the figure’s hand, and he began to wield it as well. After a period of time, the dagger broke as well. It was then followed by a spear, a halberd, a shield, and various other weapons that Lu Yin had seen and many that he had never seen at all. However, every last one of them broke. Also, even though each of the weapons broke in a different place, each break perfectly matched to a move that had been made with the black scythe.

Lu Yin’s eyes flickered. He split his mind to be able to see the movements of the scythe paired with the movements of the other weapons. This confirmed that the two were paired, and that every move matched a specific weapon. The black scythe could destroy all of these weapons.

The fourth day ended, and many people went silent around the Sword Monument. The hunched elder at the forefront showed more and more admiration for Lu Yin. “This is humanity’s good luck; a blessing of the ancestors.”

The fifth day started.

On this day, the figure began to move the scythe about once more. Lu Yin saw the moves clearly this time, and he focused on the scythe. These were simplified moves, and though they were repetitive, there were not many of them.

Lu Yin had already completely forgotten about everything except for the black scythe that he was staring at.

Back in the real world, the hunched elder’s eyes betrayed shock for the first time; five days. This child had lasted more than five days. This surpassed all records held by the current generation. The only one who had managed to even last for five days had been that woman with incredible talent, and yet this child had surpassed her.

No one could describe the shock felt by the Liu family. They had watched far too many geniuses visit the Sword Monument, and they had also watched as many of those geniuses had accepted an inheritance. If asked, these people would claim to not be able to be surprised by anything they saw, and yet they were shocked at this moment, as they were witnessing history.

Far away, Long Kui’s mouth was wide open as he blankly stared towards the Sword Monument. He was staring at someone who was believed to be a weak and useless young man. Long Kui knew that starting this moment, Long Qi would officially be watched by the great forces of the Mother Tree, all because he had just surpassed that woman’s record. That woman practically ruled the Perennial World, and even the Junior Progenitors had to look up to her.

A young man approached the Sword Monument. He stepped past Liu Tianmu, and then Zhang Dingtian. He moved up to stand just behind the hunched old man, and he quietly stared at Lu Yin’s back.

This young man was thin, and he had an average face. The only thing that stood out about him were his eyes, which showed a terrifying persistence. There was a coldness to his entire being, and he seemed somewhat gloomy. However, there was a heavy sword at his waist that clashed with the youth’s apparent demeanor. This young man was Liu Hao, and he was the most gifted youth in the Liu family. He had already become an Enlighter, and he was confident enough to challenge even a Junior Progenitor.

The four ruling powers had their Junior Progenitors, the Liu family had the Sword Monument, and the Nong family had their Seed Garden. There were very few people who were unafraid of the Junior Progenitors, but those who were fearless hoped to eventually challenge one of the Junior Progenitors, despite having already lost during the Yuanlun Festival.

Though Liu Hao looked calm as he stared at Lu Yin’s back, he was just as shocked at what was happening as everyone else. Liu Hao was someone who looked above the peak. His only targets were those four people, and yet he had just been surpassed by someone whose only claim to fame was being the son-in-law of the White Dragon Clan’s main family. This person was supposed to be trash? Impossible. Could a wastrel be able to draw out an inheritance from the Sword Monument for so many days? This youth had even surpassed that woman.

Liu Hao clenched the hilt of his sword tightly as he stared at Lu Yin with a challenge in his eyes. Liu Hao was very curious about what sort of inheritance Long Qi had received from the Sword Monument.

Finally, when the sun set on the sixth day and dusk fell, Lu Yin opened his eyes. The Sword Monument returned to normal, and no further phenomenon appeared.

Lu Yin swayed and almost fell to the ground, but was picked up by a gentle force.

He turned to see many people staring at him, though the one closest person was an old man who had clearly seen the vicissitudes of time.

Lu Yin knew that the older a cultivator became, the more unfathomable they would be. He quickly bowed to the old man. “Junior Long Qi greets Senior.”

The rickety old man looked at Lu Yin and smiled as he said, “Child, how do you feel?”

Lu Yin replied, “Dizzy.”

“Hahaha!” The old man laughed. “It would appear that you received an incredible inheritance.”

“That Long Qi, what kind of inheritance did you get? Let us see it!” someone shouted off in the distance.

“Yeah, let us have a look.”

“Maybe you were unable to learn anything at all?”

“You were lost for six days! There’s no way you didn’t gain anything! Let us see what you got.”

The old man turned, his eyes sharp. “Quiet!”

Though he spoke but one word, no one dared to make any more sounds. Instead, a young man walked out. He was young, but was already a Hunter. “Elder Song, this junior wishes to ask Brother Long Qi to trade pointers. Since we are both Hunters, this can’t be seen as bullying. I ask Elder Song for his permission.”

The hunched old man looked back at Lu Yin. “Child, are you willing to accept?”
