"Don't resist, come with me." Lord Douzhan waved his hand, and a wave of power enveloped Shen Zhui.
Shen Zhui naturally listened obediently and allowed the Lord Douzhan to do whatever he wanted.
As time went by, Shen Zhui and Lord Douzhan appeared in a main hall a moment later.
Shen Zhui recognized it at a glance, this was the Zen Heart Hall.
Traveling all the way...
The two soon came to a temple.
There is a huge Buddha statue in the hall
And under the Buddha statue, there is a crystal coffin.
"Click~" The crystal coffin lid slowly opened.
Two shining stars emerged from it.
These two stars have a blue appearance, with shadows of land and ocean on them. They are full of incomparable mysterious power. They rotate methodically with each other, attracting...
"Is this the heart of the world that even true god-level experts are tempted by?" Shen Zhui breathed out, and couldn't help but feel his heartbeat speed up.
Two perfect stars, without any external influence at all, just floated and rotated, as if they possessed endless magic power.
"Yes, this is the most important and precious treasure left by the master during his lifetime."
"Based on the master's lifelong insights, the core essence of the Dongtian World is condensed into one, forming the core of this twin world."
"With this thing, it is no problem at all to grasp the mysteries of the cave world, condense the origin, understand the rules and become a venerable one."
"Even people with mediocre qualifications can use this to break through to the Venerable level."
"What? It's so magical?" Shen Zhui was filled with shock.
No wonder even the true god-level powerhouses have to send people to snatch them away. This is equivalent to creating a venerable person without any obstacles!
"Of course, there are many types of venerables, ordinary venerables, top venerables..."
"If the inheritor only wants to become the most ordinary venerable, then with the heart of this world, he can easily reach the first level of venerable by just eating and waiting to die every day."
"My master's world hearts are two ways, extremely rare twin world hearts. I believe you will not be willing to become an ordinary first-level venerable."
"I understand." Shen Zhui said quickly.
The Venerable, as powerful as Marquis Wu An, can go directly to the Blood Red Castle and kill everyone, but the Venerable Tian Jue is helpless.
Venerable Dou Zhan nodded and said with some melancholy: "Although the master was severely injured back then, with his strength close to that of a true god-level powerhouse, even if he is seriously injured and dies, he can definitely live for thousands of years!"
"However, the master gave up the remaining life and condensed the inheritance of the heart of this world."
"Can you live this long?" Shen Zhui was shocked.
"Hmph, even ordinary magical powers can live for eight hundred years, and those who have mastered the source can live for thousands of years. The master's cultivation is comparable to that of a true god-level strongman, isn't it strange?"
"Then why, Venerable Ciyun..." Shen Zhui started to speak but stopped.
Shen Zhui was puzzled by the fact that he could live for thousands of years but voluntarily gave up his remaining lifespan.
"The master was seriously injured in a sneak attack back then."
"Even if you can live for thousands of years, it is just a lingering breath, not even as good as a person with magical powers."
"There is no hope of recovery. Instead of remaining in this state, it is better to make plans early. So the master used secret methods to forcefully restore to the peak state, and then ordered the disciples to arrange the inheritance." Venerable Douzhan waved his hand, motioning for Shen Zhui to follow. .
Shen Zhui quickly followed Lord Douzhan into the side hall.
In this side hall, there are eight corpses.
Shen Zhui's pupils shrank when he looked at the eight corpses in the side hall...
It turned out to be eight fighting sages!
"Shen Zhui, you should know that the master is not only a powerful warrior, but also a master of weapon refining."
"These eight fighting lords are the magic weapon puppets refined during the master's lifetime. All of them have the strength of a lord."
"However, the enemy was too strong and made a sudden attack, which caused the opponent's power to penetrate directly into the cave world, causing the eight fighting masters to die directly."
"Attacking the Cave World directly?" Shen Zhui was surprised. He had never even heard of such a method.
It should be noted that his current cave world is virtual. Even if it is unfolded, others cannot attack it.
"You will understand when you reach a high level of supernatural power." Venerable Douzhan said.
"After the master regains his strength, the first step is to repair the cave world so that the cave world can continue for endless years without decay after the master's death."
"The second is to spend endless treasures to refining a Dou Zhan Venerable to protect the cave world, that's me."
Shen Zhui nodded. Needless to say, the one in front of him was the re-refined Dou Zhan Zun.
"After doing all this, the master used his lifelong skills and insights to condense the hearts of the twin worlds, waiting for the destined person to inherit the master's legacy."
"Legacy?" Shen Zhui was slightly stunned.
"Yes, legacy." Venerable Douzhan said solemnly.
"If it were just an ordinary inheritance, which venerable person would spend so much effort and endure endless pain to unite the heart of this world before dying?"
"The cohesion of the Heart of the World is extremely demanding. It allows a person with mediocre qualifications to go straight to the path of a venerable person. Such an act of defiance will of course come with a price."
"One of the costs is endless pain."
Shen Zhui was silent. He felt that the inheritance of Venerable Ciyun was not so easy to obtain.
Venerable Douzhan said calmly: "Shen Zhui, my master has only one will, and that is to destroy the evil forces that attacked him back then."
"But you don't need to worry. The master will not ask you to avenge him now. Besides, after countless years, it is hard to say whether that evil force exists now."
Shen Zhui immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Indeed, Venerable Ciyun was a figure in the early days of the Apocalypse Era.
It has been more than 30,000 years since then, and the world has undergone tremendous changes.
Whether the enemy exists or not is a question.
Moreover, even if it really exists, he is not required to complete this will now.
"The master left behind two treasures. One is the heart of the twin worlds, which will help you clear the obstacles in your realm and lead you all the way to the realm of the Venerable."
"Second, the secret methods inherited from ancient Buddhism, including the method of refining weapons, are all stored in my core, and I will teach you."
"When this is over, you can choose to transfer the weapon spirit of Lord Dou Zhan to another treasure."
Venerable Douzhan said: "If you are willing to accept the inheritance of the master, then kowtow three times in front of the master's Buddha statue. From then on, you will become the last disciple of the master."
"If you don't want to, then according to the master's rules, you will pass it on to Gu Chenxing, who ranks second in contribution, and I will erase this memory of yours."
"I do." Shen Zhui just hesitated for a moment and nodded.
Just kidding, if you don’t agree, God knows what Venerable Douzhan means by ‘erasing memory’.
Furthermore, giving this kind of inheritance to Gu Chenxing is tantamount to endorsing the enemy.
Shen Zhui and Master Douzhan returned to the Buddha statue.
"Pa~" Shen Zhui knelt down simply and kowtowed three times respectfully.
He gained a lot in this world of Ciyun, all of which came from the Venerable Ciyun whom he had never met before.
Just kowtow to him three times and Shen chases him down without any mental barriers.
There can be many teachers, and it is very common to learn from the strengths of hundreds of schools of thought.
"Very good." Venerable Douzhan said with a smile. "Now you can bring the heart of this world into your cave world. As long as your spiritual thoughts initially connect with the cave world, the heart of the world will subtly enhance your strength. The cave world.
The stronger you are, the faster you absorb it."
"I estimate that when you break through to the Venerable Realm, the Master's World Heart Essence will be consumed by almost 10%."
"My breakthrough to the Venerable is only 10%?" Shen Zhui was secretly shocked.
"Of course, the original power of the magical realm only consumes a very small part of the energy, but the master has mastered the power of rules."
"If you can absorb one-tenth of it, it will be a big leap when you break through to the Venerable level."
"If you are only in the realm of magical power, even if you reach the peak of magical power, if you can absorb one thousandth of it, it is considered good."
"Too strong..." A flash of shock flashed in Shen Zhui's eyes.
With such a treasure, indeed the other treasures are not important.
Compared to the treasures of the first test, the Heart of the World simply exceeds the sum of those treasures by countless times.
Shen Zhui immediately unfolded the cave world, and then carefully incorporated the heart of the world.
As soon as the two stars entered Shen Zhui's cave world, they immediately took up residence in the sky and disappeared.
At the same time, Shen Zhui felt that his cave world seemed to have become tougher, and its expansion speed had increased several times compared to before.
The rules of the world in the cave world immediately gave him an illusion of perfection.
"The key point is that the cave world absorbs the power of the source. As for absorbing the power of rules, you have to break through to the venerable level." Shen Zhui had a vague understanding in his heart.
"Are there no other treasures?" Shen Zhui asked.
"Yes." Venerable Douzhan nodded. "When the strength is weak, it is useless to leave too many treasures. Moreover, the master used secret methods to forcefully restore it and used up many treasures. Only the heart of the world and me."
"Shen Zhui, in fact, this Zen Heart Palace and the bones of Venerable Douzhan are also rare treasures." Venerable Douzhan pointed around.
"However, the Zen Heart Palace has been seriously damaged and is integrated with the Ciyun World, so it can only stay here."
"You can take away the bones of these eight Venerable Fighters and leave them for later processing."
Shen Zhui nodded, and with a thought, he collected the eight broken bones of Lord Dou Zhan.
Shen Zhui is still very satisfied with these gains.
Although the treasures left by Venerable Ciyun were only two kinds.
But these two treasures alone exceeded all previous harvests countless times.
…………
At the entrance of the Zen Heart Hall, Shen Zhui and Venerable Douzhan stood side by side, looking at the outside world.
Due to the battle with the Black Demon, Shen Zhui had closed the record of the Divine Power Order early, so the outside world did not know what happened between him and the Black Demon.
"Did the teacher give you a name?" Shen asked.
"The name my master gave me is Zen Xin, you can just call me Zen Xin." Zen Xin's voice sounded in Shen Zhui's mind.
Although he gained inheritance...
But Zen Heart is a puppet life. Although he recognizes his master, he does not call Shen Zhui his master.
Obviously, Shen Zhui's current state is not yet qualified for his Zen mind to truly be willing to call himself the master.
And according to what Zen Xin said, Shen Zhui has always abided by the two rules left by Venerable Ciyun:
"First, I will only help you when you encounter a life or death crisis."
"Second, when you reach the height of your master's lifetime, then I will truly recognize you as your master."
Shen Zhui had no objections to these two points.
After all, being able to inherit a treasure is already a great opportunity.
If the Zen mind recognizes its master immediately, it may develop dependence in the future.
Since Venerable Ciyun has high hopes for his disciples, he would certainly not do such a thing.
"Zen Xin, did the teacher ever think about what would happen after I received the inheritance? For example, if someone intercepted me and robbed me of the inheritance treasure?" Shen pursued.
"Yes." Zenxin nodded.
"The master left a plan - activate the space teleportation array in the Zen Heart Palace."
"The master was a master of weapon refining during his lifetime, and was also proficient in formations. Unless a true god-level powerhouse surpasses the master in formations, no one can stop the activation of this teleporter."
"After you go out through this teleportation array, you can stay anonymous until you absorb the master's inheritance, and then concentrate on learning the secret techniques left by the master for a period of time... and then go out and explore when you are strong enough."
"Incognito?" Shen Zhui shook his head.
This is simply impossible.
"It seems that this matter can no longer be hidden after all."
"Fortunately, I'm not a casual cultivator. Otherwise, even if I get the treasure, I won't be able to escape intact. I can only follow Venerable Ciyun's method and activate the teleportation array to hide." Shen Zhui said secretly.
After a pause, Shen Zhui took a deep breath, then smiled and said: "Zen Heart, send me out and act as planned."
…………
In Crane City, many powerful people who are paying attention to the final inheritance are eagerly waiting for it.
After Shen Zhui cut off the connection between the Divine Power Order and the outside world, no one knew anything about the battle between the Black Devil and Shen Zhui.
As for the Black Devil... he just follows orders and keeps a low profile, so of course he won't initiate communications.
As a result, tens of thousands of people are now staring at the Zen Heart Palace, waiting for the final result.
…
"Buzz~" Shen Zhui's figure was teleported to the sky above the Wu'an military camp.
Although they communicated in the Zen Heart Hall for a long time, due to the different speed of time in the outside world, it was actually only a quarter of an hour before the ancient dust star came out.
"How is it?" As soon as Shen Zhui appeared, several strong men from the army came over to ask. Among them were the phantom figures of Lu Yuanwei and other titled captains.
"That black devil is too strong." Shen Zhui shook his head in a low tone. "I have never beaten him."
"This is normal." Lu Yuanwei said calmly. "The Black Devil's strength does not seem to have been suppressed."
"But he can't run away." The Lord of Liehuo Palace snorted coldly.
"A casual cultivator, no matter where he comes from, wants to swallow such a treasure? Dream on!"
Seeing that no one was suspicious at all, Shen Zhui had a thought in his mind.
In the cave world, Venerable Dou Zhan's Zen Heart immediately removed the barrier of the Crane City through the layers of space.
At the same time, there was a sudden explosion and a voice in the Zen Heart Hall.
"The inheritance ends here, all of you who are destined to leave can leave on your own."
"Ka~" A black crack suddenly appeared above the Zen Heart Hall.
The space teleportation array has been activated.
The wind clone that Shen Zhui left behind in advance suddenly transformed into the appearance of the black devil, and the overwhelming demonic energy turned into a stream of light and penetrated into the crack in the space.
Then a laughing voice came: "Haha, the Venerable's inheritance is mine! See you soon, everyone!"
