Chapter 301: Miscalculation
Everyone stared at the see-through entrance, where glowing inheritance orbs floated. The crowd whispered in awe, their hushed voices full of surprise:
"If someone gets a cultivation method inheritance, they can understand it right away. They might even reach Minor Accomplishment—or even Great Accomplishment!"
"Just these inheritances alone are priceless treasures. Anyone would be jealous to have them."
"Getting these cultivation methods is like being halfway into the Transcendence realm."
"But only one person can go in at a time. A single person could take all the cultivation methods for themselves."
"And it’s the same for the pill and spiritual plant inheritances too."
As the Purple Heaven Holy Land disciples kept talking, Jiang Chen also read the words on the glowing screen. He thought to himself, Only one person can enter at a time?
No wonder the members of the Golden Proud Cult would betray each other and fight for this.
I guess that a million years ago, the cultivators of the Immortal Martial Continent wanted to create a true powerhouse to protect the continent, he mused. That must be why they set things up like this.
They probably never imagined it would take a million years for someone to finally open this Doomsday Cave Heaven.
Although this inheritance is impressive, it’s still nothing compared to my Wordless Heavenly Jade.
He continued to think: Even if someone gets all the cultivation method inheritances, they can only understand them up to a certain point. To really use their power, they still need to practice on their own.
In comparison, with my Wordless Heavenly Jade, I can completely master a cultivation method, as if I’ve practiced it for countless years.
Still, even though I already have plenty of cultivation methods, those spiritual plants are extremely important to me—especially the Transcendence-level ones!
Jiang Chen’s thoughts were racing.
If he could get those spiritual plants, he could restore the Burning World Red Lotus back to the Peak stage of the Dao Palace realm.
Such a gain would not only boost his cultivation base but also make the cultivation methods he practiced much stronger.
In simple terms, it would greatly improve both his power level and combat abilities.
At that moment, another sentence appeared on the glowing screen. It told everyone that the inheritance would activate in fifteen minutes.
Hidden in the crowd, Gu Ran stayed out of sight, blending in with the others. His mind raced with thoughts:
In fifteen minutes, the inheritance will activate!
I, Gu Ran, can’t let this opportunity slip away!
Trapped by the formation, he could only watch helplessly as someone else took the inheritance he had longed for.
No! This can’t be happening! Gu Ran fumed inside, his anger rising. I didn’t wish harm on any of you! All I wanted was to claim the inheritance and leave quietly.
But now, you’re blocking my only chance to change my fate!
The rage inside him boiled over. His eyes burned with hatred as he glared at the disciples of Purple Heaven Holy Land.
You’ve left me no choice. If I can’t have peace, then I’ll fight back. You pushed me to this!
His killing intent was unmistakable.
What Gu Ran did not know was that Jiang Chen had already sensed the subtle changes in Fate Value among the supporting characters, quickly identifying who was in immediate danger.
"Master, protect Outer Sect Elder Li Dong," Jiang Chen silently communicated to Ji Mingxiu, all while moving toward the light screen.
In that moment, the light screen’s entrance finally swung open.
Not long after, the chosen inheritor from the Purple Heaven Holy Land confidently walked through the formation, ready to step into the underground chamber of white jade.
At the same time, Jiang Chen moved into the underground space quietly and quickly, making sure no one noticed him.
His strategy was simple: let the actions of others grab attention, while he operated in secret.
Then came the soft sounds of "puff, puff, puff."
One by one, the glowing orbs shattered, turning into bright streaks of light. They gathered at the center, merged into one, and just as quickly, vanished without a trace.
"What!?" a voice from the Purple Heaven Holy Land group cried out in shock.
"The inheritance... it’s gone!"
"Who would dare steal what belongs to us?"
"By the heavens, gather everyone! We can’t let them get away with this!"
The disciples of Purple Heaven Holy Land were thrown into a frenzy, their faces filled with alarm. While most of them were genuinely shocked, Ji Mingxiu and a few others who were in the know were just putting on an act.
Impossible! Gu Ran’s eyes widened in disbelief as he took in the chaotic scene. There’s someone else hidden here, just like me, trying to take the inheritance?
His stomach churned with dread and anger. But why weren’t they trapped inside the formation? Who could they be?
The tension in the air grew heavier. The surrounding cultivators, now on high alert, unleashed their full strength, attacking in all directions.
Ji Mingxiu, Han Xu, and Liu Mei put on expressions of horror, acting as if they were just as desperate as the others. They quickly abandoned the formation and rushed toward the underground chamber of white jade, releasing a series of spells that appeared fierce but were actually controlled and restrained.
