Chapter 224 - The Mysterious Ancient Legacy!!!

Qing Ming City.

Somewhere.

An Ice blue aura surged.

In a transparent laboratory full of futuristic technology, a group of white-coat cultivators were busy, and a machine flashed, showing rows and rows of data.

Testing phase: the fourth stage.

Testing area: TEK-067

Testing progress: 80%

Dee!

Dee!

“Warning! The energy is abnormal!”

“What is happening?”

“I don’t know!”

Dee!

Dee!

The warning device flashed crazily.

The people in the laboratory looked grave. They had never seen such a strange energy error on the screen. The level of danger was at the red alert level!

“Is there anyone who knows how to handle this?”

“I only know how to deal with the coding error.”

“What about the person who developed the program back?”

“Well, he used the network in the laboratory to download R-rated videos and was killed by the leader.”

“Get the higher-up to quickly send another man here.”

“What about this?”

“Try rebooting it.”

After a long time…

The machine was rebooted.

The error was canceled.

“Eh?”

“It is alright now.”

Everyone was surprised.

It seemed that it was not a serious problem.

They waited for a while to ascertain that everything was okay before they carried on with other tasks. Anyway, no one knew how to operate the machine. It was fine as long as they did not press the wrong buttons.

However…

At this point in time…

Nobody noticed it.

Something seemed to be floating in the program interface.

It was looming.

Right then…

If someone took a closer look and stared at the output background panel, one would notice that something was moving at the background panel.

# Error instruction color corrected.

# Instruction color consistent with the background panel.

# Error instruction mode corrected.

# Command pop-up window mode canceled corrected to be text-only output.

#Warning!

# Abnormal energy!

# Wrong coordinates, Qing Ming City (23421, 24121, 192)

#Warning!

# Abnormal energy!

At this very moment…

In the ancient tomb.

Lu Ming and Jiang Feng were cultivating.

After all, this place was a rare place for cultivation. They took great pains to come here, hence they had to make use of this chance to cultivate. However, Jiang Feng still felt upset.

Lu Ming who was opposite to him was reading a book.

Yes.

The guy was reading!

Lu Ming was seriously looking at one of the archaeologists’ log.

He was in a comfortable position.

On the bed.

The Original Card jumped around crazily. It would shake occasionally. From the looks of it, it was cultivating smoothly.

Jiang Feng was silent.

He recalled his years of cultivation and he felt sad.

It was true.

In order not to be hurt by the sinister aura, he only went to the ancient tomb every once in a while, and every time he would be very cautious. He would leave once he ended his cultivation.

But Lu Ming…

Look.

He did not have to go near it. His Original Card could cultivate by itself!

The gap…

“Has the Original Card developed so quickly?”

Jiang Feng was doubtful.

He looked at the date and was very sure that only more than ten years, instead of one hundred years had passed.

Oo…

Could this be Lu Ming’s secret?!

Jiang Feng’s heart stirred slightly.

Self-cultivation…

Right!

This must be a top-secret!

It was possible that they received something in the legacy or somewhere else. It was also possible that Lu Yan imparted the secret tips to Lu Ming!

At the thought of this, Old Jiang could not focus on his cultivation.

Given their relationship… hmm… and future relationship…

Perhaps…

Cough, cough.

“Well, Lu Ming… Your Original Card can cultivate by itself?” Jiang Feng asked quietly.

“Yes,” Lu Ming said.

“Is it very difficult?”

Jiang Feng smiled faintly.

“No, all Sword Card Masters know how to do it.”

Lu Ming shrugged.

Jiang Feng’s expression stiffened. “All of them know it?”

“Yes.”

Lu Ming counted. “Xiaoyan, Haoran, ooo… quite a lot of them.”

Jiang Feng was silent…

Damn it.

He had been hunted down for a few months and he had lost touch?!

“Is it easy to pick up?” Jiang Feng asked automatically.

“Fairly okay.”

Lu Ming thought about it. “Basically, one will be able to learn it with one glance.”

The difficulty of self-cultivation was with the birth of the card spirit, it was not in the learning. As long as one had the card spirit, one glance at the guidelines and they knew how to do it.

Li Haoran had written it very clearly.

“Oh.”

Jiang Feng was tempted. “It seems to be very formidable.”

Lu Ming was speechless.

He finally came back to his senses.

He glanced at Jiang Feng and he suddenly understood. Old Jiang beat around the bush and kept asking about it as he wanted to learn the method of making the Original Card cultivate by itself!

It was really…

Lu Ming did not know whether to laugh or cry.

“Yes.”

“This is the guidelines of the Sword Card Master. Take a look.”

He passed them to Jiang Feng.

“Okay, okay, okay.”

Jiang Feng felt gratified.

Look.

Lu Ming was a good child. He shared such precious secrets with him. However, when he opened to read, there was a dumbstruck look on his face…

Let’s not talk about tempering…

Card spirit…

What the hell was that?!

Wait a minute.

Wasn’t this purely marketing material?!

“Young man, are you lying to me?”

Jiang Feng looked sullen.

“No.”

Lu Ming rolled his eyes. “All of the Sword Card Masters have card spirits! Besides, you know that Xiaobai has a card spirit and yet you don’t believe me?!”

“Haha.”

Jiang Feng sneered.

Xiaobai was twelve years old and she scored full marks for her basic education. Why didn’t he write that down?

“Other than that?”

Jiang Feng looked at Lu Ming.

“This is simple.

Catch a card spirit and stuff it in!” Lu Ming said calmly.

Jiang Feng was silent. That was to say that Lu Ming had caught his card spirit? He suddenly thought of the supernatural events at the field these few days and he seemed to understand.

“It was just that… I have never heard that a sword spirit could cultivate by itself.”

Jiang Feng was doubtful.

“Of course!”

Lu Ming was exasperated. “A sword spirit certainly cannot cultivate by itself. A Swordsman’s aim is to be one with the sword. How can it be the same?!”

Was that so?

Jiang Feng was not totally convinced.

If not, should he catch a card spirit and stuff it in?

It just so happened….

His Original Card had two cracks…

Forget it.

He would talk about it later.

Jiang Feng felt that his head was hurting.

At this very moment…

Buzz—

The jade bed radiated bright lights.

“What is happening?!”

Jiang Feng was alarmed.

He had been here countless times and had never encountered such a situation.

“I don’t know.”

Lu Ming looked grim.

There was a hint of four-star cultivator’s aura on the Original Card. But as the energy was being interrupted, it did not break through.

“The energy is abnormal,” someone suddenly said.

“That is possible.”

Lu Ming and Jiang Feng believed so.

Suddenly, for a second, both of them came to their senses…

Shush!

They looked toward the jade bed.

Over there…

There was a shadow, a real figure over there. Its figure shook and it looked sorrowful. Apparently, it was also worried about the energy…

Jiang Feng suddenly squinted.

Spirit body!

There was a spirit body in this kind of place!

“B-bed spirit?!”

Lu Ming was taken aback.

Crap!

He had not heard of jade bed spirits?!

“You are the bed spirit!”

Your entire family is bed spirits!”

The spirit body was infuriated.

Since it was born, this was the first time it heard such an ugly name. Its former master used to call it a companion spirit. It was such a good name?!

Lu Ming looked at it with suspicious eyes…

He then looked at Jiang Feng. Wait a minute, Jiang Feng had spent a long time cultivating on the bed…

Ss——

Lu Ming gasped a breath of cold air.

“Hello, Xiaobai’s stepmother.”

Lu Ming looked grim.

Jiang Feng’s face instantly darkened.

“Scoundrel!”

The spirit body was furious. “I am formed by the essence of this jade…”

Lu Ming was taken aback.

The essence of the bed?

Damn!

Could it be that…

“Are you Xiaobai’s older sister or younger sister?”

Lu Ming asked cautiously.

Jiang Feng was silent…

For some unknown reason, he suddenly had the urge to kill someone.

“I am a companion spirit.”

The spirit body sighed. “I am a spirit body born out of the jade bed.”

“Uh—”

Lu Ming was confused. “This is still considered as a bed spirit.”

The spirit body was thinking about whether it should go against its precept to kill someone.

He was such a bully!

“You were there the whole time?”

Jiang Feng spoke in a low voice.

“Yes.”

The spirit body’s eyes were deep. “I served the master’s order to impart the legacy to people that we have affinity with! This is not only an ancient tomb but a Land of Legacy as well!”

Jiang Feng and Lu Ming were shocked.

The rumors were true!

Some veterans would leave their legacies in the ancient tomb…

They did not expect that…

They would encounter it here!

Jiang Feng had always been cultivating in this ancient tomb. But it turned out to be a legacy. In a sense, this was similar to Lunar Shadow legacy!

“Why didn’t you come out before?”

Jiang Feng was doubtful.

“You don’t meet the requirements,” the spirit body answered.

“Age?”

Jiang Feng sighed. He knew that there were certain requirements that one had to fulfill in the legacy. He was older and it was understandable that the legacy refused to accept him.

“That’s not it.”

The spirit body paused briefly. “My master was a fairy-like figure and he was the hero of his era. His message was that whoever inherited his legacy… Must be good enough! Especially—”

The spirit body paused. “In terms of looks.”

Jiang Feng’s face instantly darkened.

Damn!

What did he mean?!

He had heard that some legacies had age requirements, talents requirements, required that someone had good roots and moral character. This was the first time that he heard of the appearance requirements…

Besides, he used to be the most handsome boy back in school!

Otherwise, Xiaobai would not be so adorable!

“Haha.”

Lu Ming smiled faintly.

These days, it was good to have the looks.

“Don’t be discouraged.”

Lu Ming patted him on the shoulder. “In fact, you are very good looking.”

Jiang Feng was silent…

“Tell us. What is your legacy?”

Lu Ming stepped forward.

He was very curious. What legacy would require that one be good-looking?!

The spirit body sneered. “You are not qualified as well.”

Lu Ming was taken aback.

Damn, are you kidding me!

Jiang Feng was surprised.

Although he often wanted to beat Lu Ming, he had to admit that Lu Ming was quite good-looking. He did not expect that he would not meet the cut…

That was not right.

If Lu Ming did not meet the requirements, who else could?!

This legacy…

Perhaps it was fake?!

Shush!

The atmosphere suddenly turned quiet.

Furthermore…

Now that he thought carefully about the tone that the bed spirit used, it was tactful when speaking with Jiang Feng, but when it was talking to Lu Ming, it sounded disdainful…

Did this guy have some misunderstanding about his looks?!

“Although you have the looks, your temperament doesn’t match!”

The spirit body spoke in a deep voice.

“Then why did you come out?”

Lu Ming rolled his eyes.

“There is not enough time. I am worried that there might be a problem. I have no choice but to ask your help in finding an inheritor,” the spirit body spoke in a deep voice.

“Haha. Ludicrous!”

Lu Ming pursed his lips. “Why must I listen to you?”

What a naive bed spirit!

Why should he help to find an inheritor?

This was not a game. Your npc could say whatever you wanted.

“Help me to find the right inheritor and I will help you to break through to four-star!” the spirit body said.

“Haha.”

“I am about to break through to four-star.”

Lu Ming sneered coldly.

He was not far from the breakthrough. It would not take him too long to break through after he was back in the city!

“I can help you to temper the Original Card and you can fly on it,” the spirit body continued.

“Tell me… What kind of inheritor do you need?”

Lu Ming looked solemn.

There was no choice.

He was warm-hearted and helpful. This was a flaw that he could not correct after so many years.

“Well…”

The spirit body found it difficult to explain.

“Alright, never mind.”

Lu Ming was being very helpful. He switched on the communication device. Oh, fortunately, there was a network here and it would be much more convenient. He searched for some videos on the Internet and showed them to the spirit body.

“Take a look, is there anyone who meets your requirements?” Lu Ming said.

“Oh?”

The spirit body was elated. “Let me see…”

It took a while to check through and it found one video in no time.

“This one. In this video, I noticed there are a lot of children with good temperament. Although they are not as handsome as you, they have excellent temperament!”

The spirit body was very satisfied.

Hehe.

Lu Ming pursed his lips.

To hell with the temperament…

These days, one would only use temperament as a supplement if one did not have the looks!

However…

There was no choice.

Since the legacy said so, what else could he do?

Well…

Lu Ming clicked open the video that the spirit body selected.

In the video.

It seemed to be a variety show. One had to choose a group of cultivators from one hundreds of cultivators and to train them to become celebrity cultivators…

Hence…

The candidates went on stage one by one.

When each player came to the stage, the other players off the stage would scream and go into heated discussion about them.

“Wow, it’s beautiful.”

“Yes, yes, he used good makeup.”

“Oh, his skin is so white and his eyelashes are so long…”

“I am so envious.”

“Goodness, he’s dancing. His waist is so slender.”

“Wow…”

Jiang Feng and Lu Ming were dumbstruck.

Crap!

This was the person that was selected by the spirit body?

“Well…”

Lu Ming pointed cautiously to those players. “Excuse me, are these people the ones that you want?”

“Yes.”

The spirit body was very satisfied. “Yes, they are the ones. These children have soft features and they are talented and have good looks. They are better than the two of you.”

Lu Ming was speechless.

Jiang Feng was silent…

Therefore, this damn legacy…

“What vocation is this?”

Lu Ming sighed. “There must at least be a vocation.”

“Any vocation!”

The spirit body was proud. “My Master’s legacy can be applied to any vocation. You can see it as the Soul Legacy. Of course, it will be better if one majors in Soul!”

Oh.

Lu Ming had some understanding now.

Soul…

That was to say, all the vocations that were related to the Soul could do!

If they did not cultivate the related vocation, he supposed they might have to start from scratch. In a sense, this inheritance was also something that could boost one’s abilities!

It would not affect one’s original vocation. It was amazing!

However…

It was a pity…

Given such requirements, God knew what the outcome would be?

Majored in Soul…

In his impression…

Some Charmers also majored in Soul. When combined with the requirements of having more feminine characteristics, he had no idea how it would turn out eventually…

“Do you know such a person?”

Lu Ming looked at Jiang Feng.

“Hehe, what do you think?”

Jiang Feng sneered.

“Alright.”

Lu Ming felt somewhat melancholic.

It seemed that…

It was impossible to find a suitable inheritor. In that case, they had to eliminate the bed spirit…

Hence…

Lu Ming’s gaze became hostile.

“It’s no use killing me.”

The bed spirit sneered. “My original body is the jade bed. If I die, the jade bed will be gone as well. If you battle with me, it is akin to fighting with the energy in the jade bed!”

Alright.

Lu Ming gave up the idea.

Well…

It seemed he had to find an inheritor.

“Perhaps we can catch someone and bring them here?”

Jiang Feng suggested.

“This doesn’t seem too appropriate.”

Lu Ming felt a little embarrassed.

“What’s wrong with that?”

Jiang Feng shrugged. “Some time ago, a friend of mine was fascinated with reading novels. He caught the author and locked him up for a month, spending all his time writing… He would update five times daily, it was thrilling.”

Lu Ming wiped his perspiration. That was too ruthless!

To catch someone…

He thought about it and dismissed the idea.

If they caught someone and passed the legacy to him. God knew if he would take revenge after he became stronger. It would be troublesome…

Furthermore…

An ancient legacy!

How could such a good thing be wasted?

“If you dare to put on female clothes, I will kill you!”

Jiang Feng’s murderous intent was obvious.

He had heard of the dirty secrets of Lu Ming… He did not care what he did in the past, but right now he was Xiaobai’s master. He must watch his behavior!

Lu Ming looked at him. He would not wear them even if Jiang Feng told him to!

It was ridiculous!

This was merely a legacy…

He had the Lunar Shadow legacy. It was so much better!

However, no matter how useless this legacy was, it was still a legacy. Although he did not need it, he had several disciples. He would not allow benefits created by his own work to accrue to others. Well…

Oo…

Who was suitable?
