Wei Huo had already asked System Number Two about it. System Number Two did not know what was in the Dragon Lock Well. There might be a True Dragon locked in it. System Number Two had said that if there was a True Dragon, Wei Huo would not be able to handle it with his current strength.
The True Dragon’s strength was terrifying. It was much more terrifying than the winged lizards of the west. The Dragon Qi it spat out could make an empire rise or fall.
System Number Two even made a bold prediction. “If it’s a True Dragon, it’s definitely an existence stronger than a Mythical creature. In that case, the chains won’t be able to lock the True Dragon. The Dragon Lock Well might only be locked by Dragon Qi.”
Wei Huo pulled the old monk back and repeatedly told him that he was really there to learn the Taiji Fist. The old monk tried to persuade him again. “The Dragon Lock Well is very dangerous. It’s best if you don’t step into it casually. A young reporter with a camera barged in and became chief editor when he returned.”
Wei Huo was speechless.
Master, you have no intention of stopping me.
System Number Two said, “These people might have obtained a wisp of Dragon Qi and the power of wind and water. Their lives and fates are irreversible. Luck and water can change a person’s future.”
Wei Huo looked at the tree by the temple and thought of dragons. He suddenly felt that the tree trunk was like a dragon’s body, the tree top was like a dragon’s head, the leaves were like dragon scales, the branches were like dragon horns, and the fruits were like dragon eyes.
This was not a Bodhi Tree. It was a Dragon Head Tree that had mutated due to the Dragon Qi!
The tree in the center of the temple was a Dragon Head Tree. It was a tree that had grown there because of the Dragon Qi. No wonder the fruit produced by the tree was extraordinary.
After Wei Huo’s multiple explanations, the old monk finally stopped trying to persuade him. Wei Huo had wanted to learn the Taiji Fist, but the old monk was practicing the Form Fist today. He first stood on a round pile and, without saying a word, he put on the Trisolar Form and threw a Half-Step Collapsing Punch.
Wei Huo was confused.
Why did you change your fist technique?
Wei Huo asked, “Master, why are you practicing the Form Fist?”
The old monk said, “Not long after I came to this mountain, the government asked us to promote martial arts. They wanted us to strengthen our bodies and protect ourselves. Someone even came up the mountain to teach me. That’s why I learned it.”
Wei Huo was speechless. You’re not studying martial arts at the Shaolin Monastery, but you’re quite good at learning martial arts from other sects.
Wei Huo followed the old monk’s example and practiced for a while. Soon, he acquired another skill called Form Fist (Basic).
The old monk continued punching and meditating.
At that moment, Wei Huo told System Number Two, “I heard you say that there is another inheritance in this mountain apart from the Instance Dungeon.”
System Number Two replied, “That’s right. There’s a heritage in the mountain. It’s in the middle of the temple hall. One has to knock open the seventh and eighth row of stone slabs. There’s a secret passage that leads to the middle of the mountain. There’s a cave in the middle of the mountain, and a heritage is hidden there.”
Wei Huo arrived at the palace and opened the stone tablet. Indeed, he saw a dark cave. He leaped down the cave and landed on wet ground.
That was the fifth cave that Wei Huo had encountered. According to tradition, there should be a small game in each cave. Based on the scores of small games, the completion rate of the heritage was different.
Wei Huo was ready to play a game. However, after a few steps, he arrived in front of a stone wall. The stone wall emitted a chilling vibe.
Wei Huo walked forward and touched the stone wall. It was smooth and cold.
