Chapter 978: 887 True Spirit Noble Family’s Legacy

"Who are you? What’s your background?"

The humanoid statue’s voice was authoritative, giving off an irresistible aura.

After pondering for a moment, Shen Long spoke, "Shen Long from the Qianling Sect, born of the Human Clan."

With a flick of his spell, a bright yellow light emanated from his body, transforming into a Yellow Giant Ape. Then, the Yellow Giant Ape morphed into a Blue Giant Dragon, followed by a change into a White Tiger, and finally a Vermilion Bird, before reverting back to human form.

"You practice the Myriad Beasts Immortal Scripture!"

The humanoid statue’s voice held a hint of surprise.

"Indeed, the Myriad Beasts Immortal Scripture originates from the Lin Family. Upon seeing me practice this technique, would a Mahayana Cultivator from the Myriad Ghost Sect immediately think of the Lin Family?"

Shen Long asked.

"Where is the Mahayana Cultivator from the Myriad Ghost Sect?"

The humanoid statue’s voice was ice-cold.

"He’s been killed by me, his Divine Soul utterly destroyed."

Shen Long said plainly.

"Good kill, good kill. If it weren’t for the Myriad Ghost Sect’s backstabbing, our Lin Family’s descendants wouldn’t have suffered such heavy casualties."

Towards the end, the humanoid statue’s voice was filled with anger.

"I haven’t heard of the Qianling Sect; I demand you swear an oath under the threat of your inner demon that you truly are of the Human Clan, or else you’ll never achieve immortality."

The humanoid statue spoke.

"Swear under threat of my inner demon? I am indeed a Human Cultivator; there is no need for deception. Can’t you see that?"

Shen Long’s voice turned cold.

"Hmph, some traitors have colluded with Different Clans, harming our Lin Family’s descendants. How can I know if you’re not one of them? If you refuse, then I’ll send you on your way. Do you really think I can’t threaten you just because I’m only a Soul Fragment?"

The humanoid statue’s tone was icy.

"Indeed, there are traitors among the Human Clan, but I am not one of them. Members of Different Clans who bear enmity towards our Human Clan, I show no mercy in killing. I respect my seniors, not for your tactics, but because the Lin Family, as a True Spirit Noble Family, has sheltered many from the Human Clan. If you were a Soul Fragment of a Different Clan, I would have already destroyed you."

Shen Long said in a deep voice as a Spiritual Light burst forth from his forehead, sending a two-foot-long Red Flying Sword flying out, hovering in midair.

"Soul Extinguishing Sword, have you also cultivated our Lin Family’s Mysterious Soul Secret Manual? Good, good, good, hahaha."

The humanoid statue laughed heartily, expressing great excitement.

"Here lie a large amount of Cultivation Resources left by our Lin Family, including Immortal Realm cultivation techniques, all for you. However, you must swear an inner demon oath to help rebuild the Lin Family in the future."

The humanoid statue said.

"I’ve acquired the inheritance of the Lin Family, and if within my power, I am willing to help rebuild the Lin Family, not because you coerced me."

Shen Long spoke calmly.

"That works, your word is enough. To tell the truth, it’s fortunate that a Human Cultivator found this place. If it had been a Heterodox Cultivator, I would have destroyed this entire minor world and not let Different Clans benefit."

The humanoid statue spoke with emotion.

"Senior Lin, why was the Lin Family annihilated? I heard it was because several Super Clans joined forces against you. Didn’t the other True Spirit Noble Families support you?"

Shen Long asked with curiosity.

"The other True Spirit Noble Families encountered their own troubles and could not lend aid. I suspect the Chili Clan had a hand in this conspiracy. It must be that someone from our Immortal Family met with misfortune, or else the Chili Clan and other Super Clans wouldn’t have been able to destroy the Lin Family so easily."

The humanoid statue explained.

"Has something happened to the Lin Family in the Immortal Realm?"

Shen Long exclaimed in surprise.

When the city gate catches fire, the fish in the pond are affected; when the backer in the Immortal Realm is in trouble, the power in the Lower Realm will also be implicated.

"That’s right. That year, the Chili Clan and two other Super Clans allied together, dispatching twenty Mahayana Cultivators and three Xuantian Treasures to annihilate our Lin Family. We activated a grand Formation to seek help from our kin in the Immortal Realm, but the Formation showed no response. There’s only one possibility: our kin in the Immortal Realm encountered trouble, and it’s surely related to the Chili Clan’s backer."

The humanoid statue spoke slowly.

"Does ’Myriad Beasts Immortal Scripture’ come from the Immortal Realm? Is this Cultivation Technique very powerful?"

Shen Long asked.

"This Cultivation Technique indeed comes from the Immortal Realm. According to the claims of our clansmen who practiced it, this Technique comes from a great power known as Myriad Beasts Sect. ’Mysterious Soul Secret Manual’, however, is a Divine Soul Technique created by our Lin Family’s ancestor, and after several improvements, it has reached its current version."

The humanoid statue spoke, as if recalling something, and said: "Alright, you should quickly take what’s inside Hanwu Palace, replace it with Top Grade Spirit Stones, and transport the other Treasure Hunters out. Everything here, down to every blade of grass, belongs to our Lin Family."

Shen Long nodded and strode in.

There was a bluestone path to the left of the great hall, and Shen Long walked in with large steps.

After walking more than a dozen steps, five stone chambers came into view, with the door of the first chamber wide open.

Inside was a grand Array several hundred zhang in size, covered with numerous uniformly sized indentations, each containing a Top Grade Spirit Stone, which were almost depleted of Spiritual Energy.

Next to the Array was a humanoid corpse, donned in a tattered green Dharma Robe, with a golden Storage Bracelet on its right skeletal hand.

"Senior above, receive this junior Shen Long’s bow. I promise that when conditions permit, I will definitely help rebuild the Lin Family."

Shen Long knelt down and kowtowed three times.

"It seems you really aren’t a traitor colluding with the Human Clan; otherwise, I would still activate Hanwu Palace’s Restrictions and eliminate you."

A cold male voice sounded.

Shen Long was startled and looked up.

"There is a Xuantian Treasure within the Storage Bracelet, personally Refining by myself. The enemies who have seen this treasure have all been killed and will not recognize it; you can wield it boldly."

The man said.

Shen Long thanked him, took off the golden Storage Bracelet, scanned it with his Divine Sense, and gasped in astonishment, feeling a mix of surprise and joy. He collected the humanoid corpse and approached the door of the second stone chamber.

He found a square golden Token inside the Storage Bracelet, infused it with Mana, and the golden Token shone a ray of light. A beam of golden light shot out, striking the door of the stone chamber.

The door flung open, revealing a hundred zhang large stone chamber, with three tall green stone shelves inside, laden with a large number of Jade Slips.

Shen Long picked up a green Jade Slip and began to examine it.

"Immortal Waves Scripture", a Technique that can help one comprehend the water property Laws, accompanied by several great Divine Skills.

"Mysterious Elixir Canon", suitable for Alchemists to practice this Technique, along with various Pill Formulas for Dao Pills.

"Immortal Talisman Outline", insights from a Third Rank Immortal Talisman Master on Talisman Crafting, including methods to Refining various Immortal Talismans.

······

Shen Long looked at the contents of more than a dozen Jade Slips, and his heart was filled with shock. These Cultivation Techniques and Secret Arts all came from the Immortal Realm. With these scriptures, the foundation of Qianling Sect would be significantly enhanced.

He collected these Jade Slips and opened the door to the third stone chamber. Another hundred zhang large stone chamber came into view, with one green stone shelf inside, displaying dozens of Storage Bracelets.

Shen Long took a look and inhaled sharply in surprise.

There were no less than ten million Top Grade Spirit Stones alone. Shen Long had never accumulated over a million when he destroyed the Cold Moon Clan. The Top Grade Spirit Stones stored here by the True Spirit Noble Family amounted to tens of millions. This disparity was too great; indeed, the foundation of a True Spirit Noble Family could not be compared to those of minor clans.

There were also a large number of Eighth Rank Demon Pills, Eighth Rank Refining Materials, and no fewer than ten thousand years old Spiritual Medicine. There was also Beast Hide from Eighth Rank Monster Beasts.
