"Here's my chance!"
The child, hearing the word "inheritance", I cannot help sending the rest of his thoughts and suspicions flying; to him, that was like a magic word that reminded him of the many novels he had read in his past life, and even here in Kunlun, no one was oblivious to that word either.
Generally, throughout the cultivation journey, a cultivator (especially geniuses who transcended their own cultivation level), accumulated a lot of wealth, be it cultivation methods, martial techniques, weapons, and even rare cultivation resources.
Using all these resources, some built their own forces, creating powerful cultivation sects, others simply gave everything in exchange for better resources in their own families or sects.
But a very small number, who reached the peak of cultivation in their respective places, before dying, generally built a place, hidden and isolated from others and highly protected, where they kept not only their treasures, but also their own knowledge and understandings for your "heir".
And regarding the selection of the heir, it varied depending on the cultivator, some made their places of inheritance appear within a certain time in the future so that the young people compete with each other and the best one takes the inheritance, others simply hid the key of inheritance and hoped that his destined heir would find it and claim all that is within.
But perhaps the most spectacular thing about this, was that everyone, exactly everyone who became hegemons in Kunlun, at least obtained an inheritance or found the inheritance of a great cultivator from the past, which quickly boosted their cultivation and martial techniques.
So, in Kunlun and lower realms, when the news of the appearance of a place of inheritance or an heir with an inheritance key was heard, it would stir the waves in Kunlun, gathering many young cultivators who hoped to rise above the heavens.
This is why the boy could not suppress his emotion, an inheritance can change the entire destiny of a cultivator, not to mention that it is an inheritance from a swordsman who visited one of Kunlun's forbidden zones and lived to tell about it.
So the boy could not help but remember the experiences that the protagonists of the novels had from his previous life, which made him calm down, and analyze the situation carefully.
"While the inheritance is tempting, a cake never falls free from the sky, furthermore even if I know the location of that inheritance, they are generally found in extremely dangerous places, even for beings in the middle level of the cultivation, with my current level and age or I can even use a teleportation matrix, not to mention that I must even undo my cultivation, in that sense, as tempting as the inheritance is, it is of no use to me in my current situation."
If the boy had learned anything in his previous life, it was to think before acting, and in this case, looking at it realistically, heredity was of no use to him.
"But the librarian wouldn't have mentioned it if he didn't have a plan in mind, you'd better ask him quickly about it."
The boy wasted no more time in his reflections and decided to ask the librarian the key question.
"But major, although I cannot say that I am not interested in inheritance, I do not see the relationship between it and being able to get rid of the people who watch me and want me dead."
Hearing the boy's question and seeing his puzzled face, the librarian only smiled mysteriously, before answering:
"Of course brat that, for the current you, it is impossible for you to claim the inheritance, but what I'm going to tell you about is where it is and how to get there."
Although this did not clear the boy's doubts, he decided to continue listening to what the librarian was saying.
"You see, my partner had a secret that only those closest to him knew, and it was the fact that he came from the lower realms."
Hearing this, the boy began more or less to realize where the librarian wanted to go, but he did not interrupt him and decided to listen to the end.
"From what he told me back then, the lower realm it came from had not yet been discovered by the Kunlun cultivators because the outlet of the lower realm connected with a very uninhabited area of Kunlun and lacking in spiritual qi, so almost no one ventured there. "
"And here comes what should interest you brat, my partner, in order to protect his homeland, he hid his entrance very well in such a way that you can only get out of it, but you can no longer enter."
Hearing this, the boy couldn't help but refute:
"But senior, if you can only leave and not enter, how on earth am I going to enter that lower realm?"
When he investigated about secret kingdoms, he learned that many had this problem, you could leave, but no longer return, so at first he thought about hiding and venturing through a secret kingdom until he was strong enough to protect himself, but due to this inconvenience, he dismissed the idea, not to mention that the ones that could be entered generally had a lot of resources or were secret realms of the different factions in Kunlun, so he could only give up on it.
Thus, upon hearing the boy's question, the librarian only grunted a little annoyed,
"Hmph, brat, if I'm suggesting it, naturally I have something to solve the problem."
The boy, seeing the old man's annoyance, was a little embarrassed and gestured for the librarian to continue.
"Well brat, as you may have noticed by now, my partner's inheritance is within that lower realm, the only way to enter was left to me to choose his heir in Kunlun, but according to he told me, he also left another Inheritance key in that same lower realm, giving his cultivators the opportunity to obtain it as well."
With this, the boy finally understood what the librarian meant, being the heir of that senior, he could calmly enter that lower realm and hide until he was strong enough, besides that he would not have to worry about being watched, that is adding that he would have the opportunity to claim that senior's inheritance.
The boy thought carefully about the subject, although he could change his future with the help of inheritance and escape from his "enemies", no cake fell from the sky, there must be a price to pay, so he decided to ask the librarian.
"Senior, I know very well that nothing is free and everything has a price, may I know what you want from me?"
The librarian was surprised by the sudden seriousness of the boy, instead of being bothered by the rude question of the boy, he felt satisfied, he felt that after waiting so long, he finally chose the right person.
"Not only is he talented with a sword, but he is not blind to the riches and still maintains his rational thinking, not to mention that his perseverance and state of mind are very high, I hope he does not disappoint me."
The librarian pondered for a moment before replying:
"The current you do not have qualifications to know it brat, but let's say that I am making a bet with you, if you manage to enter the lower realm and get the inheritance, then and only then will you have the qualifications to know the reason, also I doubt that in your situation you will reject my offer."
Hearing this, the boy wanted to refute, but quickly held back, he realized that, from the librarian's perspective, it really was a big gamble, that and that he really had no other immediate option.
"After all, apparently that senior had been dead for a long time, so the librarian must have seen countless juniors like me and even better talent, but he chose me, even risking his partner losing a possible heir, the best way to prove to the librarian that he was not wrong is to return to Kunlun with the inheritance obtained from the senior…, that and that I really ran out of options."
Having made his decision, the boy did not hesitate any longer and decided to accept the librarian's offer, with the conviction to return and meet the librarian again once he obtained the inheritance.
"Okay elder, I will accept the opportunity you offer me and I will not disappoint him."
Seeing the boy's determined and serious gaze, the librarian nodded pleased, as the boy thought, he had already seen countless geniuses of all kinds, but none of them finished convincing him, in the end, he ended up in this god-forgotten place as the artifact spirit from the library, so he thought that his lack of decision had caused his partner to lose his heir, in the end, apparently, the heavens took pity on him and made him know the boy, although he was not a peak talent, he had the determination and mindset to become a powerhouse.
"Well brat, the area where the node that connects Kunlun with that lower kingdom is located in the Khar mountain range, a desolate place due to its large number of magical beasts and few resources here in the north, how you get there it's your problem, take it as a test for yourself, now come closer, I'll give you the inheritance key. "
Hearing about the "homework" that was entrusted to him, the boy worried a bit, but left them for another moment while he approached the librarian.
"The inheritance key is a rune that will be imprinted on your soul, in addition to the fact that you will feel the location of the inheritance when you are close enough, it will also allow you to enter the lower realm when you are near the node, as far as I know, my partner strengthened the node until it was extremely stable, so even if you lose your cultivation, there should be no problem crossing."
Once the librarian finished his words and before the child can reflect on it, he placed his hand on the child's forehead, suddenly, a blue light began to shine from his forehead, illuminating the entire library with a beautiful light.
But unfortunately for the boy, the pain came back to assault his mind, only that compared to the time the librarian transmitted the manual to him, the pain was only greater, although of course compared to what he experienced the day he entered the first The body's level of refinement was still tolerable, so the boy's expression changed for a moment before it returned to normal.
This small change did not escape the eyes of the librarian, who, seeing it, only reinforced his decision to entrust the key to the boy, but increased his hope that the boy would return with the inheritance.
Time passed before the light that illuminated the library faded little by little until it disappeared, and before the boy opened his eyes and thanked the librarian, he said.
"With this my mission ended, I will go into hibernation to regain my brat soul energy, so until you return with the inheritance, this will be our farewell."
And with these words, the librarian disappeared, once again leaving the library empty and silent.
The boy did not say a word, he only bowed in front of the central table before leaving, he had already said everything he had to say, also the best way to thank the librarian was to return with the inheritance.
Once the boy was gone, a deep sigh echoed through the library, with words fading with the wind.
"With this I sowed my opportunity, now it only remains to hope that the child does not disappoint me, hmph, supreme idiots, leaving this child in ostracism will end up being his condemnation."
