238: Strong as clouds
The final result was exactly as Shen Xi had guessed.
Another half an hour passed, and still no one challenged Ye Zirou. The token once again underwent a change.
The token suddenly burst forth with dazzling light.
The next second, it transformed into a streak of light and merged into Ye Zirou’s Sea of Consciousness.
This was the Legacy of the Rain Fairy, which had always been with Ye Zirou.
However, it was only at this moment that she finally obtained it.
“The Legacy of the Rain Fairy!”
“Oh my goodness! So the token was the Legacy itself, not just a key to unlock the Legacy!”
“In the end, does the Legacy still belong to Ye Zirou?”
“What can we do? In a one-on-one fight, we are no match for Ye Zirou. If we gang up on her, Shen Xi is still here, so who among you dares to fight to the death?”
“Forget it, forget it. There are countless Legacies on Cultivation Method Cliff. Maybe if we’re lucky, we can obtain other Legacies left behind by Seniors!”
“That’s all we can do.”
Seeing this, the Martial Artists knew they had completely lost their chance.
In their helplessness, they could only choose to give up.
They didn’t linger any longer, turning around and climbing towards the summit.
This series of challenges had lasted for several hours, and their already limited time was now even more pressing. Everyone was unwilling to waste any more time.
Shen Xi and his group were not in a hurry to leave. They only continued forward after Ye Zirou had completely received the contents of the Legacy.
Now, Ye Zirou, Liu Linsheng, Fatty, and Situ Ye had all obtained Legacies.
However, Liu Yiyi, Chen Fang, Shen Xi, and Chu He had not yet encountered their suitable Opportunity.
This made the three of them a bit anxious, eager to find the Legacy most suitable for them.
Continuing upwards, Chu He and Chen Fang, through a stroke of luck, unexpectedly acquired the Legacies most suitable for them.
These were also two Legacies left behind by Detachment Realm powerhouses.
Therefore, it caused quite a stir.
However, no Martial Artists came to cause trouble again.
After all, Shen Xi had already protected Ye Zirou before, and now no one would completely fall out with him for a Detachment Realm Legacy.
“Damn it, why hasn’t my Legacy appeared yet?”
Liu Yiyi grumbled softly, dissatisfied.
Among her companions, only she and Shen Xi had not yet encountered a suitable Legacy.
It was normal for Shen Xi not to have obtained one; his Aptitude was too high, so Legacies of the Dian Ling Realm and Zhu Tai Realm levels naturally wouldn't seek him out.
To put it bluntly, the Legacies themselves would be too embarrassed to appear.
After all, not only do Legacies choose Martial Artists, but Martial Artists can also choose Legacies.
But Liu Yiyi was different; she was on the same level as Ye Zirou, Chen Fang, and Chu He.
The Legacies she could obtain would mostly be of the Detachment Realm.
Yet, they were almost at the summit, and still no Legacy had appeared.
Further up, Detachment Realm Legacies were few, with the vast majority being Nirvana Realm and Yuyue Realm Legacies.
This also meant that if Liu Yiyi didn't get a Legacy soon, she would likely completely miss this Opportunity.
Her current Aptitude should not be enough to gain the recognition of a Nirvana Realm Legacy, let alone the more Advanced Yuyue Realm.
This made Liu Yiyi feel regretful.
On one hand, this was one of the three great Opportunities of the Chasing Wind Secret Realm, its importance self-evident.
On the other hand, she was also secretly competing with Ye Zirou. The two were companions and friends, but also rivals in love. Ye Zirou obtained a Legacy while she did not, which naturally made her unhappy.
Of course, this competition was healthy, without any scheming involved.
“Don’t worry, your Legacy might just be ahead.”
Shen Xi comforted her.
As they were about to reach the summit, he was no longer as relaxed and casual as before.
Those who could reach here were the cream of the crop, at least possessing the combat power of the Innate level.
Among them, familiar faces could also be seen.
Gu Tong and the Savage Youth were also among them.
However, the few of them merely exchanged glances, and no battle erupted.
Finding a Legacy was the top priority now; fighting could completely wait until an extraordinary Legacy appeared.
“That guy is terrifying!”
Chen Fang noticed a man shrouded in a black robe and couldn’t help but exclaim.
This person’s strength should not be underestimated; he at least possessed the combat power of the Greater Completion of the Innate Realm.
“And that person, he gives me a feeling no weaker than Gu Tong.”
Liu Yiyi also pointed to another youth.
This person’s face was gloomy, naturally exuding a chill, as if he had just walked out of an ice cave, affecting the surrounding temperature.
Not only that, this person’s strength also should not be underestimated.
“And that…”
“There’s also one here…”
Fatty and the others also spoke up one after another.
As expected, those who could reach near the summit were indeed strong.
There were no less than twenty people with the combat power of the Greater Completion of the Innate Realm alone.
Among them, a few were even more unfathomable, their faint auras comparable to Shen Xi’s.
“It seems a Dragon-Tiger battle is destined for the summit.”
Shen Xi spoke with a serious expression.
The powerhouses at the summit could roughly be divided into four echelons.
Those with the combat power of the Initial Stage of the Innate Realm: this group was the most numerous, with hundreds visible at a glance.
Then came those of the Early Stage of the Innate Realm, slightly fewer than the former, but still in the triple digits.
Further up were those of the Greater Completion of the Innate Realm. This level was already a threshold, and their numbers sharply decreased, though there were still twenty to thirty people.
Finally, there were those of Shen Xi’s level.
Gu Tong was one, the Savage Youth was another, plus the black-robed man and the Gloomy Man, making a total of five people.
With such an astonishing number of powerhouses, one can imagine how fierce the battle would be once a Nirvana Realm Legacy appeared.
“Fatty, Liu Linsheng, Situ Ye, the three of you should not continue forward. Find a safe place to hide.”
Shen Xi immediately said.
The front was extremely dangerous, and even he could not guarantee the safety of the three.
After all, the three’s true combat power was still in the Acquired Realm, and if not for Shen Xi’s protection, they wouldn’t even have made it up the mountain.
“Take this Po Xu Beast hide. If there’s any danger, hide immediately and wait until Cultivation Method Cliff closes and you are teleported out.”
Ye Zirou handed the Po Xu Beast hide to the three.
The three of them carried Legacies, and once they left Shen Xi’s side, someone might not be able to resist attacking them.
With the Po Xu Beast hide, their safety was absolutely guaranteed.
“You all be careful!”
“Then we’ll wait for you at the mountainside.”
“If something feels wrong, turn and run. Don’t rashly act without a hundred percent chance of winning; ninety-nine percent isn’t enough.”
After receiving the Po Xu Beast hide, the three spoke one after another.
They clearly knew that continuing to follow would only make them a burden to everyone.
