Chapter 2278: Not of My Tribe, Heart Assessment Illusion Realm

Chai Gong exclaimed in surprise, "The inheritance of the first generation Master of Yu Vein is actually in that ordinary and inconspicuous little canyon... Not bad, not bad, as long as it’s not in the center of the prison, there’s no problem."

While speaking, he put away the Qi Seeking Ruler and sent a message out, naturally notifying all the Cangyu Dead Soldiers inside the prison.

At the same time, Sikong Jing’s eyes flickered with inspiration as he muttered to himself, "Can Teng Yue and the Ying Sect Master obtain the inheritance?"

Sikong Jing, of course, could not be sure about this matter.

In the Memory Illusion Realm of the Black Demon...

Sikong Jing knew that the first generation Master of Yu Vein, Ying Beitong, had left the inheritance as per the Black Demon’s instructions before his death.

Through that complete Demon Puppet, Sikong Jing knew that Ying Beitong’s inheritance was in that little canyon, still untouched to this day, which is why he let the Demon Puppet take Teng Yue and the others to try...

But what kind of talent Ying Beitong’s inheritance required, neither Sikong Jing nor the Demon Puppet knew.

Perhaps Ying Beitong set a very low requirement, or perhaps it required very strong talent... But in any case, it didn’t matter, Sikong Jing thought again to himself, "Regardless of the outcome, at least Ying Sanmeng will have some time to recover his combat strength."

Whether Teng Yue and the others could obtain the inheritance was not the primary concern.

The most important thing was for Sikong Jing to let Ying Sanmeng recover a bit from his injuries, so they could first ensure safety inside the prison. As for how Ying Sanmeng would recover...

His injuries were so severe, how could he possibly recover in a short time?

The reason was simple...

It was because Sikong Jing would let the complete Demon Puppet, upon returning from the Cangyu Sect, according to the specific situation, drop some powerful Healing Medicine in the little canyon. Although these Healing Medicines belonged to Sikong Jing, they were just products from the Central Plains.

But they should have quite a good effect on Ying Sanmeng...

"No matter what, let’s go see the situation with Chai Gong first."

"Even if Teng Yue and the others can’t obtain Ying Beitong’s inheritance, I must make sure they do, so they can leave the prison and return to the Cangyu Sect naturally."

Thinking secretly, Sikong Jing was then swiftly led by Chai Gong towards the little canyon.

Chai Gong, of course, wanted to first try and see if he could stop the inheritance by himself.

...

In the little canyon where Ying Beitong’s inheritance was located, Ying Sanmeng and Teng Yue stood there dazed.

They had already been at the deepest part of the canyon for a while, searched thoroughly, only to see withered trees and stones.

The environment here seemed no different from other places inside the prison, with nothing special.

Where exactly was the inheritance of the first generation Master of Yu Vein?

How were they supposed to try it?

After standing for a while, Ying Sanmeng finally murmured, "Why, not even a single response?"

Teng Yue was also full of confusion, indeed showing no reaction.

They had just entered the prison and naturally didn’t know this little canyon was quite ordinary; many prisoners had passed by historically, and none had triggered or even discovered the inheritance of the first generation Master of Yu Vein...

Simply put, if one’s talent was not sufficient, Ying Beitong’s inheritance would trigger no response.

With no response, why were they sent to try then?

At this moment... swish!

The complete Demon Puppet returned from the Cangyu Sect, but did not let the two discover, instead secretly saying, "They haven’t triggered the first generation Master of Yu Vein’s inheritance, must drop the Healing Medicine."

"The Master of Ten Thousand Beasts also said, we must make it look like they are attempting to receive the inheritance."

The implication was: if they couldn’t trigger the inheritance, then the Demon Puppet would just create a semblance of inheritance to fool them.

Sikong Jing was just using it as an excuse to save them and didn’t know if they could trigger the inheritance; if they couldn’t, then he’d have to make the excuse of saving them perfect.

After all, bringing them here without attempting anything would be too strange.

Thus, the complete Demon Puppet extended a finger, ready to randomly craft an Illusion Array.

Following the intentions of the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts, Sikong Jing, giving Teng Yue an Illusion Array, and for Ying Sanmeng, dropping the Healing Medicine.

However, just as the Demon Puppet was about to unleash the power... hum!

In the little canyon, there suddenly erupted a series of intense inspiration rays, soon followed by a sudden change in the wind and clouds, and a phantom slowly emerged from a seemingly ordinary stone.

It was indeed: the phantom of the first generation Master of Yu Vein, Ying Beitong.

The Demon Puppet had no emotional awareness, seeing this, it immediately stopped and said, "The inheritance has been triggered."

Since the inheritance had been triggered, there was no need for him, the Demon Puppet, to conjure anything now, so it paused.

At the same time, Ying Sanmeng and Teng Yue, who were bewildered, excitedly widened their eyes.

The inheritance, had finally been activated!

Not waiting for their reaction, Ying Beitong’s phantom fixed its gaze on the two, first pointing at Ying Sanmeng and said, "You have the bloodline of my Ying Family, but your talent is too weak and you are too old to receive my inheritance."

With these words, Ying Sanmeng’s expression changed from excitement to a pale...

In the next moment, Ying Beitong’s phantom pointed at Teng Yue, saying, "Your talent is excellent, but you are not a descendant of my Ying Family."

The meaning seemed to be that neither of them would do?

As Ying Beitong’s phantom’s voice fell, Ying Sanmeng fell to his knees with a "thump"...

"Forefather, although Teng Yue does not possess our Ying Family bloodline, he is currently Yu Vein’s strongest disciple."

"I will marry our Ying Family’s daughter to him, so they can bear children with the Ying Family’s bloodline."

At this moment, Ying Sanmeng truly feared that neither of them would obtain the inheritance.

The Yu Vein existed as a direct bloodline of the Ying Family, with Ying Sanmeng’s talent too weak and age too old, not making it, and Teng Yue lacking the Ying Family bloodline, also not making it; it would just be a wasted excitement.

Thus, Ying Sanmeng now could only promise to marry a daughter from the Ying Family to Teng Yue, so they could bear children with the Ying Family bloodline.

Just praying that Ying Beitong, the forefather, would grant Teng Yue the inheritance.

Trembling all over, Ying Sanmeng pleaded again, "Forefather, our Ying Family is almost being pushed to extinction by the Cang Lineage. If you don’t give us the inheritance, the Yu Vein and Ying Family will be doomed."

With Ying Sanmeng’s pleas, Teng Yue also clenched his fists tightly, though he didn’t have much to say.

Since he was not of the Ying Family bloodline, there was nothing he could do.

Ultimately, they could only deeply gaze at the first generation Master of Yu Vein before them.

However, the latter showed no expression or reaction.

In fact, Ying Beitong was really just a phantom, not even a Mind Spirit Shadow.

The Spiritual Shadow of the Black Demon had dissipated over time, so naturally, Ying Beitong’s Spiritual Shadow couldn’t have been preserved for so long.

The so-called phantom had no awareness and couldn’t communicate with the two.

That is to say...

No matter how much the two pleaded, Ying Beitong’s phantom could not respond or soften to bestow the inheritance.

But surprisingly, Ying Beitong’s phantom suddenly let out a sigh...

"Forget it, the time has been too long, and I’ve ultimately not waited for a truly talented descendant of the Ying Family to appear. To have a descendant with the Ying Family bloodline here is already rare... then let it be inherited."

In fact, these words were pre-set by Ying Beitong’s Spiritual Shadow before it dissipated.

The set condition of Ying Beitong’s inheritance was...

If waiting too long, then as long as a descendant with the Ying Family bloodline appeared, it would directly be inherited, regardless of talent or not.

Thus, it was Ying Sanmeng’s Ying Family bloodline that triggered Ying Beitong’s inheritance.

And these words instantly made Ying Sanmeng and Teng Yue shiver throughout their bodies...

In the next moment, Ying Beitong’s phantom pointed at Ying Sanmeng again and said in a low voice, "Next, as a member of the Ying Family’s bloodline, you will enter my Inheritance Illusion Realm. How much you can accept depends on your ability."

To this, Ying Sanmeng nodded excitedly.

Ying Beitong then pointed at Teng Yue: "As for you, you must first undergo... the Heart Assessment Illusion Realm."
