409: Lord of Lieyang Mountain

The door was located on the side of the main hall, blending in with the surrounding grayish-yellow walls.

It wasn't until Zhou Luo used his magic power that it changed.

Through the open door, a long passage could be vaguely seen inside, with rock walls on either side, embedded with ever-burning Mingzhu.

"That should be where True Person Lieyang cultivated on a daily basis," Zhou Luo said seriously.

Previously, he had sensed an extraordinary aura in that painting, which was why he decided to try, and unexpectedly, he really opened the door leading to the cave abode.

Standing before the door, looking at the brightly lit passage, his breathing became somewhat rapid.

According to Xuan Qing, ever since True Person Lieyang passed away, the entire mountain peak had been sealed, and the Sect Head and others, adhering to the principle of respecting the deceased, had not entered.

Did that mean there would be a Golden Core True Person's Legacy inside this cave?

Back in the Dragon Phoenix Mountain Range, Zhou Luo was fortunate enough to obtain a Golden Core True Person's Legacy, but because the other party had died countless years ago, there wasn't much left in the Legacy.

But True Person Lieyang was different; he had no Disciples, and he was the only one on the entire mountain peak. All the treasures of this lineage were on him.

Now that no one had stepped inside, did that mean these treasures could all belong to him and Yao Wu?

A Golden Core True Person's wealth, if it were outside, would surely cause a huge stir.

Zhou Luo looked at the silent passage and took a step forward.

Whoosh—

The next second, an infinite Sword Intent assailed him.

That boundless, sharp Sword Intent was wrapped in unimaginable power, its immense force far exceeding the lingering Sword Intent outside.

Zhou Luo became alert and immediately retreated.

But the Sword Intent came fiercely; in just an instant, it cut through his cloth shoes, leaving a very deep gash on his crystal-clear skin.

If not for his special Physique, his entire foot might have been severed instantly.

A stinging pain surged in his heart, and he retreated repeatedly, his heart filled with lingering fear.

"Husband."

Seeing his bloody right foot, Yao Wu cried out in alarm, quickly moved closer to him, and summoned a Gu to attach itself to the wound.

However, the moment the Gu touched the wound, the residual Sword Intent burst forth, actually tearing that First-Order Pill Medium Grade Gu into pieces.

"Don't touch it, I'll do it," Zhou Luo said with a solemn expression.

The Sword Intent in that passage was simply too terrifying; even residual, it was not something ordinary people could resist.

He circulated his magic power, urged his physical strength to contend with the Sword Intent, and at the same time took a Second Order healing Spirit Pill, carefully and meticulously eliminating the residual Sword Intent at the wound.

This process was very long, mainly because the residual Sword Intent was truly fierce, forcing him to fully immerse himself in it and carefully remove it.

A quarter of an hour later, the very deep wound slowly healed under a rich glow.

Sweating profusely, Zhou Luo looked at the passage, which had returned to calm, his eyes full of apprehension.

Earlier, he was wondering why this sword Array Formation was so simple, yet those Golden Core True Persons of the Wan Gu Sect had never stepped inside.

Although Xuan Qing said it was because everyone didn't want to disturb the other party.

But the problem was, this concerned a Golden Core True Person's Legacy, how could they be so casual?

Now it seemed it was precisely because of the Sword Intent in this passage.

Although it was just a brief contact, as someone who used swords, he could clearly perceive the terror of that Sword Intent.

That was definitely not something he, a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, could bear; perhaps even a Golden Core True Person would have to pay a considerable price to enter the cave abode.

It seemed that True Person Lieyang also didn't want his Legacy to be obtained by others in the sect, which was why he left behind this Sword Intent before his death.

Only when Yao Wu enters the Golden Core Realm is it possible to obtain all of the other party's Legacy.

Zhou Luo thought to himself.

"Let's go, the test is over anyway."

Since he couldn't break through, he didn't linger, saying to Yao Wu.

Yao Wu could also sense that the passage was not simple, nodded deeply, and followed him away from this somewhat dilapidated small building.

Outside, the morning light shone brightly, the rising sun climbed, and warm rays pierced the clouds, casting onto the earth and dispelling the cold darkness.

Zhou Luo and Yao Wu stood outside the small building, looking far into the distance.

Lieyang Mountain was very high; standing on it, one could see the scenery of all the peaks.

They saw white clouds floating, saw lush green trees, saw countless living beings, and also saw the mountain forest reborn after the sword Array Formation dissipated...

When they stepped into that small building and successfully opened the passage, all the Sword Intent of Lieyang Mountain condensed into that cave abode.

Therefore, the entire Lieyang Mountain returned to its previous state.

This change was naturally noticed by those who were at the foot of the mountain wanting to watch the excitement.

A gentle breeze came, Lieyang Mountain stood under the sky, still so calm and solemn, as if nothing had happened.

But everyone knew that this mountain was different from before.

The sword Array Formation disappeared, the Sword Intent all over the mountain dissipated, and the entire mountain peak reappeared in the world.

After such a long time, True Person Lieyang's Legacy appeared again.

Looking at Lieyang Mountain under the morning light, the Golden Core True Persons in the white clouds were all silent, neither surprised nor happy.

Conversely, the Disciples who were watching the excitement had varied expressions.

Some looked confused, some were full of emotion, and some were extremely excited.

"Martial Uncle's Legacy is finally preserved," a middle-aged Disciple with a square face clenched his fists, his spirit roused.

Zhou Shi Xin under the tree also heard the whispers and knew that her parents had reached the summit.

She looked up, the majestic mountain peak reflected in her beautiful eyes, as if she saw her parents' towering figures, especially her Father, who was as solid as a mountain, still so steady and trustworthy.

"I knew it, Father can always do anything," Zhou Shi Xin couldn't help but think.

Lieyang Mountain saw the light of day again, and Lieyan Zhenren had a new inheritor.

This news instantly spread throughout the Wan Gu Sect.

Logically speaking, this should be a very ordinary matter, after all, no matter what, True Person Lieyang's Legacy was always going to appear; it couldn't be left abandoned forever.

But this opening of the mountain was more than just that.

It was also because the ones who opened the mountain this time were only a Qi Training cultivator and a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Especially Zhou Luo.

It could be said that the entire mountain peak was almost solely brought back into the light of day by his own strength.

Although he was not a Disciple of the Wan Gu Sect, such means and ability were enough to make those Disciples who admired strength show different emotions.

Countless Disciples were curious whether the other party had obtained True Person Lieyang's Legacy.

Although True Person Lieyang rarely walked the world, being low-key and mysterious, in the Wan Gu Sect, countless Disciples grew up listening to his legends.

Whether it was his proud swordsmanship, or his mysterious and powerful Gu technique, or his research into Array Formation, all of these gave him an extremely special position among the Golden Core True Persons.

Now, if this Golden Core True Person's Legacy was truly obtained by Zhou Luo and Yao Wu, how could they sit still?

Who knows if these two won't become the next True Person Lieyang?
