Mo Wuji was not disappointed; instead, he heaved a sigh of relief. Even though these five array flags had been fallen, no entrance was opened and it even sealed the exit up. However, it allowed Mo Wuji to see the concealment array.
Cen Shuyin was right, there was indeed a concealment array. Mo Wuji guessed that when the five original array flags were replaced, not only would the exit be sealed, the concealment array would appear and new passages would emerge.
He wasn't able to fully accomplish that was definitely related to the array flag. He was using the array flags forged by Xing Huang, it was expected that it might pale in quality.
To others who don't know of the array dao, they would be completely stumped at this point. But Mo Wuji was different. When he reached this step, he knew how to uncover the hidden entrances.
Mo Wuji fetched out a few array flags and threw them out. When the array flags were in place, a subtle spatial ripple appeared; Mo Wuji swung down towards this spatial ripple.
”Boom!” Huge patches of rock and rubble exploded, revealing a long passage in front of Mo Wuji and Cen Shuyin.
Cen Shuyin was inwardly shocked at Mo Wuji's power and knowledge over arrays. She had also interacted with the array dao before, but this place looked no different from any typical place. However, Mo Wuji was able to make use of array flags and reveal the location of the hidden passage.
Moreover, Mo Wuji only needed a single strike from his pole to open up the entrance to the passage. Ostensibly, Mo Wuji's power was multiple times of hers; no wonder why Mo Wuji was able to get here. What she didn’t know was that when Mo Wuji had first arrived, he hadn’t even advanced into the True Lake Stage and he almost perished under the tumultuous and crazed Thorny Wind Whip.
”Follow behind me, we'll go in and take a look. The spiritual energy inside is richer, so there's definitely something good.” Mo Wuji gestured towards Cen Shuyin and started to walk in.
The passage was only slightly inclined downwards, it wasn’t an especially steep descent. As they walked through the passage, Mo Wuji and Cen Shuyin could tell the two walls of the passage were made from rock far harder than the toughest smithing material. After all, facing the constant beating from the rushing winds of the Thorny Wind Gate, any soft rock would have long weathered away without a trace.
The passage was not considered long; the two merely walked for half an incense's time before reaching the end. At the end, there was a stone space which resembled a room. The stone room was simple, there was a futon at the center and above the futon was a stone table. Atop the stone table lay two legacy crystal balls. By the side of the table, there was a row of words: Those who wish to succeed me are to kneel ~ Typhoon.
Mo Wuji never expected that this deeply hidden place would actually be a legacy holding.
Cen Shuyin looked at Mo Wuji and said, ”I have the legacy of my sect. You're a rogue cultivator so you should succeed this legacy. I wonder what kind of person this Senior Typhoon was, to actually leave behind his legacy within the Thorny Wind Gate.”
Mo Wuji shook his head, ”I have my own legacy, I don't need this one. Moreover, you were the one who discovered this location, meaning that you are the fated one.”
Mo Wuji was not being pretentious, he really didn't care much about the legacy. Instead, it was the rich spiritual energy which interested him; it was a good place to cultivate.
Cen Shuyin saw that Mo Wuji did not seem to be lying. She knew he was not a pretentious person, so she took a few steps forward and looked at the two crystal balls. After a brief hesitation, she still chose to kneel on the futon.
A wave of rich spirituality instantly danced and wrapped around Cen Shuyin,bring with it a hum of beautiful music. The two legacy crystal balls flew by themselves, landing within Cen Shuyin's hands.
As Cen Shuyin grasped the two crystal balls, her entire body went slack, her hands even started to tremble constantly.
Mo Wuji even thought that something had went wrong with Cen Shuyin, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked urgently, ”Senior apprentice sister Cen, are you okay?”
Cen Shuyin barely calmed herself down. Taking her deep breath, she brought one of her trembling arms in front of Mo Wuji and offered the crystal ball, ”This is for you…”
Even though Mo Wuji could see that Cen Shuyin genuinely wanted to give him this crystal ball, he could also see the desire in Cen Shuyin's eyes. Clearly, Cen Shuyin also strongly desired the legacy from this crystal ball.
Mo Wuji's heart was filled with doubt. He knew that Cen Shuyin offered the crystal ball to him to repay his saving grace. After all, Mo Wuji had a rough understanding of Cen Shuyin's personality. However, he did not understand what on earth this thing could be for Cen Shuyin to want it so badly. He casually received the crystal ball and scanned it with his spiritual will before asking doubtfully, ”I'm not able to read anything from the legacy crystal ball unless I accept the legacy. What is it?”
Cen Shuyin said with a quivering voice, ”This is an Immortal Grade legacy technique - Typhoon Formula.”
Immortal Grade technique? Mo Wuji's heart reverberated with shock. The highest graded technique he knew was at the Treasured Heaven Grade. The Immortal Grade was above that and was even rumoured to be able to allow a cultivator to fly.
