338: Li Huan's Test

Immediately, the three of them walked into the Library Pavilion together.

The Library Pavilion had a total of three floors.

The three arrived at the first floor, where there were no Martial Skills, only poems, songs, and calligraphy works.

Li Changbai chuckled, “It seems this Martial Saint Expert is quite cultured, right up my alley!”

Xu Qing frowned and softly said, “I don’t understand these things, but I’m willing to respect this Saint’s hobbies. However, we didn’t come here to admire his paintings and calligraphy; let’s continue upwards!”

Lu Xingchen also nodded slightly and said with a smile, “Although I admire literary figures, if I had to do these things myself, I wouldn’t have any patience. We should go to the second floor to see if there are any Martial Skills.”

Li Changbai chuckled, “Don’t be in a hurry, you two. Let me take a few pieces of calligraphy and paintings to slowly admire when I get back.”

The three stayed on the first floor for over an hour. Li Changbai carefully admired the calligraphy and paintings left by the Cave Mansion Owner, took a few pieces, and then reluctantly walked to the second floor with the other two.

Evidently, the second floor was where the Cave Mansion Owner specifically stored Martial Skills.

The vast space was filled with Martial Skills; Profound Rank Martial Skills were everywhere, and there were quite a few Earth-Rank Martial Skills.

Having Cultivated to their level, Profound Rank Martial Skills were already somewhat beneath them. They only took dozens of Earth-Rank Martial Skills and placed them into their Storage Rings.

These Earth-Rank Martial Skills were no longer of great help to the three of them, but they could be given to the Disciples of Lingyun Sect, which would also increase the overall strength of Lingyun Sect.

After clearing out the second floor, Lu Xingchen frowned and said in a deep voice, “This Saint is too poor, isn’t he? He doesn’t even have a single Heaven Rank Martial Skill.”

Li Changbai softly said, “Do you think Heaven Rank Martial Skills are like cabbages? Normally, even a Martial Saint Expert only has one or two Heaven Rank Martial Skills as their trump cards.”

“It’s just that the three of us are too outstanding, so we all possess Heaven Rank Martial Skills.”

Lu Xingchen nodded heavily.

“What you said makes some sense.”

“Since that’s the case, let’s go to the third floor! The Martial Skills there should be better than on the second floor.”

Li Changbai nodded slightly and said with a smile, “Alright, let’s go!”

Immediately, the three of them walked up to the third floor.

The space on the third floor was noticeably smaller than the second. As far as the three could see, there was only a chessboard, two boxes of black and white chess pieces, and a sculpture.

The sculpture was a one-to-one replica of a human, depicting a lifelike old man.

Lu Xingchen sighed lightly and said with a bitter smile, “It seems this Senior Saint didn’t leave any Heaven Rank Martial Skills in the Library Pavilion. We came for nothing.”

Li Changbai chuckled, “That might not be the case.”

With that, he walked forward and touched the white sculpture.

The sculpture immediately flashed with colorful light, dazzling and brilliant.

Xu Qing quickly stepped forward, shielding Lu Xingchen behind her.

After flashing for a while, the sculpture returned to calm, and a remnant soul appeared before the three of them.

Lu Xingchen looked at the top of the remnant soul’s head, where “One-Star Martial Saint” and “remnant soul” were clearly displayed.

Although Li Changbai and Xu Qing did not have the System to help, they also saw the extraordinary nature of this remnant soul.

The three of them bowed to the remnant soul in unison.

“Junior Li Changbai greets Senior. May I know Senior’s esteemed name?”

The remnant soul chuckled, “My name is Li Huan. In the Jianghu, they call me Saint Phantom Spirit. Three little ones, where do you come from?”

Li Changbai said in a deep voice, “Greetings, Senior Li Huan. The three of us are members of Lingyun Sect, Personal Disciples of Jiang Taishen.”

Li Huan chuckled, “Jiang Taishen? Never heard of him. But that’s not important. I see that the Soul Power of you three is very strong. Do you want to accept my Legacy?”

Upon hearing this, the three of them were overjoyed.

The Legacy of a Saint would certainly not be weak.

Li Changbai quickly bowed again.

“Junior has drifted through life, only regretting not meeting a wise lord. If Senior Li Huan is willing to bestow the Martial Dao Legacy upon us, we will do our utmost to make Senior’s name resound throughout Tianyuan Continent once more!”

Li Huan chuckled, “You’re quite a smooth talker, young man. However, I am not skilled in the Martial Dao. My Legacy is the power of Spirit Formations. I can infuse the Soul Power and Spirit Formation knowledge I’ve Cultivated over many years into your bodies, allowing you to become a Spirit Array Great Master.”

Upon hearing this, Li Changbai was overjoyed.

He specialized in the Dao of Spirit Formations and had been stuck at Spirit Realm Great Perfection for many years without a Breakthrough.

If he could receive the infusion of power from this Saint, his strength would definitely increase significantly.

But then, he frowned again and said in a deep voice, “I wonder how many people Senior’s Legacy can be given to? My Junior Brother and I are both Spirit Array Masters, and our achievements in this area are not low.”

Li Huan said with a smile, “You are quite generous, young one, to think of your Junior Brother at such a crucial moment. I have some admiration for you.”

“My power infusion can only be given to one person, but you don’t need to rush to defer to each other. To obtain my Legacy, you must first pass a test.”

Upon hearing this, Li Changbai frowned again and said in a deep voice, “Senior has the right to decide who to give the Legacy to, and setting a test is appropriate. Now, please present the test, and my Junior Brother and I will do our best to answer!”

Li Huan nodded slightly and chuckled, “You have a good demeanor, young man. My test is simple. Do you see the chessboard on the table? As long as you can defeat me, I will give you the Legacy. Now, who wants to try?”

Lu Xingchen said with a bitter smile, “Senior Li Huan, is this chessboard for Go or Five-in-a-Row?”

Li Huan chuckled, “Of course it’s Go. Isn’t Five-in-a-Row for children?”

Lu Xingchen said with a bitter smile, “Then I might be fated to miss out on your Legacy. I know nothing about Go; I’ve only heard the name.”

Upon hearing this, Li Changbai breathed a sigh of relief.

He had absolute confidence in Lu Dazhuang. If the test was about Martial Dao talent and Soul Cultivation talent, Lu Dazhuang could definitely stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

If both of them passed Senior Li Huan’s test, it would be a bit awkward.

Contention might even affect the relationship between the Senior Brother and Junior Brother.

But now that Lu Dazhuang said he didn’t understand Go, he naturally wouldn’t be eligible to participate, and Li Changbai wouldn’t have to worry about the distribution issue, allowing him to go all out.

However, Li Changbai was still not at ease and said in a deep voice, “Junior Brother, do you truly not understand Go, or are you unwilling to compete with me?”

Lu Xingchen said with a bitter smile, “Second Senior Brother, you don’t need to be so nervous; I truly don’t know how. Whether you can obtain Senior Li Huan’s Legacy depends entirely on your ability!”
