Chapter 424: Chapter 389: The Inheritance of the Qinglian Sword Sect?

Why so familiar? Because this guy was among the sect’s God Monarchs with the most storied backgrounds. Wang Zijia had practically read all about him.

Not because he was famous for his talent, but because of his experiences!

Qu Yuquan, previously belonged to the Law Enforcement Hall, went on a journey over three hundred years ago to find opportunities to achieve the ’Perfected’ state.

While at the border between the Flying Immortal Sect and Hehuan Sect, he stumbled upon the Qinglian World due to a rift in space from the Lower Realm.

After spending nearly a hundred years in the Qinglian World with quite a few twists and turns, he was pulled back by one of the sect’s big shots right before his death.

Such an experience, though, had laid a solid foundation for his path.

Upon his return, he joined the Scripture Pavilion faction and embarked on a period of secluded cultivation.

Then, in a mere two hundred years or so, he broke through to the Infant God realm, becoming the most recent legend in the sect.

Yes, this guy was the lucky chap who discovered the Qinglian World!

"Greetings, Martial Uncle Yuquan!" Wang Zijia, his mind flashing with thoughts, respectfully saluted Qu Yuquan, who was slowly wrapping up his work.

Qu Yuquan didn’t immediately respond but instead took a careful look at Wang Zijia, his eyes sparkling with spiritual light.

This conduct caused Wang Zijia to slightly furrow his brow. As long as Qu didn’t go too far, Wang wouldn’t react.

"You haven’t cultivated the Sword Dao?" Qu Yuquan asked after a moment’s scrutiny.

Upon hearing this, Wang Zijia’s mind moved, and he roughly guessed why he had been summoned.

"In response to Martial Uncle, I am not a sword repairer, and up until now, I have not touched upon the Sword Dao," Wang Zijia replied without expression, truthfully.

Qu Yuquan frowned, looked at Wang Zijia, and then changed the subject, "How is Qinglian World now?"

"I descended into the lower realm after the first wave of the Spiritual Energy Tide. At that time, demons were rampant, two of the three continents were annihilated and the population did not exceed tens of thousands," Wang Zijia succinctly described the initial situation in the Qinglian World.

After hearing this, Qu Yuquan fell silent for a moment before sighing, "Alas...I have inevitably incurred this karmic debt. It seems necessary to pay attention to it after stabilizing the realm boundaries."

Wang Zijia did not respond and remained silent.

After a while, Qu Yuquan asked again, "Have you been to all three forbidden areas?"

Wang Zijia did not hide anything and lightly said, "When I descended into the lower realm, I just happened to land in the Time Forbidden Area, so I took the opportunity to kill the Evil Cicada. I had to mobilize the power of the whole realm to eliminate it due to some anomaly occurring in the Forbidden Area of God and Mystery."

Upon hearing this, Qu Yuquan was taken aback. He examined Wang Zijia more intently and asked, "What about the Life Forbidden Area?"

’So that’s what you’re interested in?!’

Wang Zijia, with an unchanged expression, replied, "I originally wanted to eliminate the hidden danger. But before I stepped in, my spiritual sense warned me that the Bloodlight Disaster was imminent, so I dared not to enter."

Qu Yuquan looked at Wang Zijia with a furrowed brow, sighed after a while, and said, "Never mind, I won’t beat around the bush with you anymore. Just tell me if you obtained the inheritance of the Qinglian Sword Sect. If you have any Sword Dao inheritance, I can exchange it for something of equal value."

"Even if you have it and have understood how to use it, I can still find someone to consolidate a part of it, compensation will be provided. What do you think?"

"If I say that this cultivation of mine has nothing to do with the Qinglian Sword Sect, would you believe me, Martial Uncle?"

Upon hearing the other party’s frank words, Wang Zijia simply looked up at Qu Yuquan and said frankly,

"Moreover, you have been so explicit, I have no reason to hide anything. If I really had any Sword Sect Heritage, I can clearly distinguish what is good and what isn’t."

"So there’s absolutely no inheritance?" Qu Yuquan persisted, obviously he must have gained some inheritance to be able to make such rapid progress, but it wasn’t complete.

Wang Zijia gave a bitter smile and said, "Martial Uncle, you should know better than me, you were the first disciple who descended into lower realm, during the End of Dharma Era."

"Under such circumstances, you basically suppressed the whole realm. After you left Qinglian World, aside from the First Life Forbidden Zone, where else could there be any remaining inheritances from Qinglian Sword Sect?"

"Moreover, two or three waves of disciples descended into the lower realm before me to search the area, do you still think something might have been overlooked?"

At this point, Wang Zijia paused and slightly changed the topic, "You summoned me because of my cultivation, didn’t you, Martial Uncle?"

"But, Martial Uncle, I am a top-grade spiritual root after all, having spent a hundred years in the lower realm and even experienced a Spirit Energy Tide. If I didn’t have this level of cultivation, it would be a shame to the status the sect has given me."

"Spiritual Energy Tide?" Qu Yuquan looked at Wang Zijia and caught on to the key in his words, asking doubtfully.

"Yes, my timing was rather coincidental when I descended to the lower realm, I just happened to encounter the second wave of the Spiritual Energy Tide. The spiritual energy throughout the realm erupted like a sea, and a rain of seven-colored light filled the sky. This allowed me to realize the Dao, form a rune seed, and eventually complete the cultivation of the Real Man within a hundred years." Wang Zijia stated candidly.

Once again, Qu Yuquan silently looked at Wang Zijia, who stared back placidly at him.

"Forget it!" After a long while, he suddenly pulled out a jade bottle and said, "You may leave!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Zijia quietly let out a sigh of relief.

He didn’t want to ambitiously resolve a problem with Yue Changqing, only to immediately attract the attention of an even more troublesome Qu Yuquan.

Compared to Yue Changqing who was close to death, dealing with Qu Yuquan would be much harder. This guy, at less than 500 years old, was in his prime for a thousand-year-old infant god, during the peak of their lives.
