Chapter 463: Wu Hei's Fortunate Encounter

Upon hearing the name of the beast, Lin Mu tried to remember if he knew any beast like that. But he could not and came to the conclusion that the beast was either so rare that it was never recorded, or it was not from this world.

And from what senior Xukong had said about the cultivation technique, Lin Mu was leaning on the second option.

"How did this bloodline help you hide from Gu Yao then?" Lin Mu asked.

"The bloodline ability of the Shadow Lurk beast is to hide its spirit Qi fluctuation and its aura. I did not expect that it would even work against the human controlling blood curse and thus I was lucky." Wu Hei answered.

"I see… and what did this Shadow lurk beast look like?" Lin Mu questioned.

"I do not know," Wu Hei stated.

"What? But you got the bloodline, right?" Lin Mu asked again.

"I did get the bloodline, but I did not refine the beast myself. In fact, when I got it the bloodline was already refined into the form of a crystal. The bloodline crystal was present along with the cultivation technique Unity Reversal Secrets." Wu Hei replied.

"So… you got some sort of an inheritance?" Lin Mu guessed.

"Yes, it could be called that… a year after I left the city and the tragedy with my servants, I was researching different libraries for the old legends and myths. I knew that with my aptitude, raising my cultivation would take a long time.

And as such, I was looking for things that would help me progress faster. My aim wasn't even an inheritance. What I wanted was simply abandoned areas where sects and powerful cultivators lived. 

Even if they were not inheritance grounds, there would often end up some spirit herbs and such growing there, which could have greatly helped me then. I had explored tens of such areas with little luck and only found some mid grade spirit herbs. While it did help my cultivation a bit, it was nothing substantial.

Then one day, I came upon an old letter that was torn and greatly damaged. This letter told about a treasure box which was sent by an old cultivator to his friend. The letter did not mention who it was addressed to due to the damage over the years, but it did say the place it was supposed to be kept at.

Coincidentally, the location mentioned in the letter was just slightly off from the route we were taking back then. I had zero expectations that I would find anything there, but I still did not want to give up on a random miracle.

When we reached the location, we found it to be the fragments of a ruin. There were barely any traces of it left over the ground, and one could not even tell that this once used to be the abode of a cultivator. My team and I spent time excavating the area and eventually found a random box. 

Now I didn't know if this was the treasure box that the letter was talking about, as it looked nothing like a treasure box. It was a simple rectangular box that was the size of an incense box. I thought there may be some formations or such on it, but there were none.

It was simply a two-part box that easily opened by lifting the lid. But inside it, I found a small jade slip and a bloodline crystal. Upon seeing the bloodline crystal, I instantly knew I had lucked out. Even if the jade slip didn't have anything much, just the bloodline crystal would have been potentially very valuable if I sold it. 

But when I checked the contents of the jade slip, I was shocked even more. The jade slip contained the cultivation technique 'Unity Reversal Secrets' and also explained what the bloodline crystal was. 

I kept on reading more and found out that both the cultivation technique and the bloodline crystal were sent by the original owner to this cultivator so that he could analyze it. 

I decided to try out the cultivation technique and found it to be much better than the one I used to practice. In less than a year, I had reached the peak of the Qi refining realm. Two years later I broke through the core condensation realm and then decided to assimilate the bloodline crystal.

At that time I was in a rather complex situation and it was better for me to hide my cultivation and as such the bloodline crystal was the obvious choice. It took me a couple of days before I finished assimilating it and gained the ability to hide my spirit Qi fluctuation and aura.

I continued cultivating, and learned that there was much more to this technique than I had originally thought. 

And then recently I reached a conclusion that the technique I got was incomplete. A cultivation technique that was able to help me progress so fast… was incomplete.

I tried to look for the complete technique but never found it. I even tried to trace the original sender of the letter as I assumed that he probably had the entire technique and had thus sent a part of it to his friend so that he could analyze it." Wu Hei explained.

Lin Mu heard the entire thing carefully and could come to a few conclusions of his own. Whatever the technique was, it was likely that even its original owner was unaware of it and did not practice it on his own.

But seeing as how powerful and effective the technique was, the original owner must have also been an expert, so as to have been able to obtain the technique and even a bloodline crystal.

He did not know if the bloodline crystal was refined by the original owner or had been found by him, but either of those options would open up a lot of things to consider.

~Sigh~

"It's definitely the inheritance of the Taiji Celestial or rather… a fragment of it." Xukong suddenly spoke.
