Chapter 221: First floor (1/2)

As Sam, started going upstairs, he felt Yanwu calling him through their mental connection.

[Sam, I know who that guy is.]

”What do you mean?” Sam was completely stunned; he didn't know that Yanwu would know a person who is in this place.

[I don't know him personally, but I know who an Avatar is. They are a clan from the upper realms. Their race is actually not that strong and they don't have many restrictions moving along the realms. So, it is not surprising that they came here. But I don't know what this Palace of inheritances is neither do I know why he is the guardian of this place.]

Sam stayed silent and when he thought of his suspicions about Arman, he felt that there is something connecting him and this palace.

But he didn't think too much of it and started moving upstairs, but at the same time, Arthur pushed him aside and went upwards with a condescending gaze.

One look and Sam could guess that he met another dickhead who is so full of his birth and status. But he didn't care. As far as he was concerned, this guy is a fish on chopping board as long as he wanted it to be.

Then he stepped aside and let Arman go first. Arman didn't think much of it, because most of the people who came to the thunder god temple will always be humble, so he thought Sam might have gone first by mistake and now realised it.

But he didn't know that Sam let him go first just because he has something to do.

Sam moved behind Arman and spread his spiritual sense as if he is checking the stairs and the building and he also took a glimpse on the back of Arman.

As he expected the back of Arman also has a large tattoo with a circle in which a man with a sabre covered in lightning are standing on a cliff as if he was looking down on the entire world.

Sam confirmed one thing, that is this Arman is also someone who is like him having a re-birth.

But this confirmation gave more questions than answers to him.

Why is there is another person like him and this shown him a possibility that there might be more people than this guy.

And from the story attendant said, their rebirths are almost at the same time, this leaves with another question and that is if Ling Tian is the one responsible for this guy too.

And the most confusing matter is what does the significance in the tattoos suggest.

Sam has some thoughts and most possible on is the people who are responsible for their rebirths.

His rebirth was done by Ling Tian and the cultivation techniques and others are mostly related to beasts and their bloodlines which would explain his tattoo of the circle and the beasts.

At the same time, from the story he heard, Arthur specialised in a self-taught Lightning element infused Sabre arts which is also the thing he saw on the back of Arthur.

This possibility suggests that the guy has undergone rebirth with another person's help.

Sam has myriad of thoughts in his head, but he didn't think much and forced himself to stop.

As he entered the first floor, he saw that the first door is already locked and there is a light that showed that another person is inside it.

Sam saw that there was a board on the floor indicating the nature of the rooms.

”Lightning Array formations.”

As he looked at these words, Arman also entered the second room while Sam was thinking about the possibilities of what might be in these rooms.

The whole floor was like hotel rather than a palace. Most of the corridor is coloured in different shade of blue.

So, he carefully entered the third room.

In the room, Sam was welcomed by a translucent screen which looked like a holographic image.

”Your name”

These words are displayed on the screen at the same time a mechanical female voice also said the same two words.

”Sam.”

He replied with and his name was entered automatically and the holographic screen continued to display the words.

”Formation name: Lightning fence formation.

Task: In this room there are several layers of lightning fence formations. And all these layers protect an object in the centre of the formations.

The candidates need to get a hold on that object to finish the task. A candidate can destroy the formation or cross it or even doesn't need to deal with the formation as a whole. The only thing that matters is that the candidate has to get a hold on that object.

A candidate can try as many times as they want and by the end of the month, the candidate with the least timing will be awarded with the Blue Prints and construction theories of the original Lightning Fence formation along with all the possible variants that have been created till date.”

Sam felt a bit weird as he saw the words on the transparent blue screen at the same time hearing them from the mechanical voice.

Before he could digest the information, he got another notice.
