Chapter 279: The Greatest Site of Inheritance

"The peak that towers over us isn't naturalit's man-made," Nangong Wan's voice echoed within Jiang Chen's Sea of Consciousness. "This entire peak is shrouded by a formation. It bears resemblance to the ones we have in our Everlasting Baseless Immortal Domainit's a lethal array, designed specifically for demons and demonic cultivators."

"The artistry behind the design of this formation is truly noteworthy," Shangguan Ning added. "It's powered by a fraction of the entire Cave Heaven's energy, imbued with a touch of spatial force. Its lethal potential is incredibly fearsome. Even with its age and reduced power, it remains a deadly threat to demons and demonic cultivators of the Dao Palace realm."

Jiang Chen mulled over the newfound knowledge in his mind. 'Oh? I didn't expect this peak to have a formation protecting it.'

'It appears, this must be the last stronghold of the human race in the Immortal Martial Continent a million years ago.'

'The outside world of this Cave Heaven is filled with inheritances, but inside this mountain, there must be even more precious treasures!'

'Additionally, this formation can pose a significant threat to demons and demonic cultivators at the Dao Palace realm. It will surely be used by Gu Ran in the original plot to counterkill Ji Junhao and his crew.' A thoughtful gleam flickered in Jiang Chen's eyes as he relayed the information through divine sense to Liu Xiong.

'There's a formation that can restrain the demonic cultivators and demons!' Liu Xiong's eyes widened in shock, and he shot a glance at Gu Ran.

Understanding dawned on him. Gu Ran's chosen direction had seemed arbitrary, yet now an ancient formation capable of restraining demons and demonic cultivators appeared on their route. It was clear evidence of Gu Ran's extraordinary luck.

Still, regardless of how fortuitous Gu Ran was, he could not elude Jiang Chen's grasp.

Liu Xiong's admiration for Jiang Chen had reached the point of sheer awe.

In his heart, only Jiang Chen held the power to save the Immortal Martial Continent!

As time slipped by, Liu Xiong, in company with Gu Ran, steadily moved closer to the peculiar towering peak.

Simultaneously, inside the towering peak, the members of the Golden Proud Cult had already ventured into its depths.

Previously, they had successfully navigated through one security point after another.

Indeed, this monolithic peak was the final stronghold for all humans in the Doomsday Cave Heaven, a hub where the human experts amassed.

Moreover, it was the last refuge where all cultivators bequeathed their inheritances.

The inheritances strewn about the outside world had been left by the early fallen cultivators, with their quality varying significantly.

But the ones here were generally high-grade inheritances, at least of the Dao Comprehension realm.

However, to access the interior, one needed to traverse several security points.

The first checkpoint was straightforward.

It was merely a stone gate.

One could unlock it simply by infusing it with the Dao Yuan Power of the human race.

The second checkpoint was a luminescent screen that scrutinized the souls of cultivators, thwarting demonic cultivators and demons from masquerading as human cultivators to gain entry.

They exerted themselves, infusing Dao Yuan Power with all their strength.

Slowly, the bronze entrance creaked open, unveiling the scene beyonda cavernous space crafted from white jade, radiating a gentle, white luminescence.

The underground expanse was even larger than the square where Bao Xunwu and the others were standing. Inside, countless orbs of light floated idly.

Encased within these orbs were either books, jade slips, or treasures such as pills and spiritual plants.

"By the heavens! Look at the multitude of inheritances!" one member of the Golden Proud Cult exclaimed in awe.

"That jade slip was actually crafted from the Azure Flame Spirit Jade! It must house a Dao Palace realm inheritance!"

"The spiritual plants have been preserved for so long, yet they're still fresh. This method is beyond comprehension."

"That's a breakthrough pill of the Dao Palace realm! Hahaha, fantastic! My breakthrough is within reach now!"

"Transcendence realm inheritances must be present here! Look, there, at the very farthest end!"

Bao Xunwu and the others from the Golden Proud Cult, staring at the orbs carpeting the sky, were so overwhelmed with excitement that they stood aghast, their bodies quaking with anticipation.

'Hahahaha! I can't believe I've acquired so many high-level inheritances!' Bao Xunwu's inner voice resonated, an exultant chuckle echoing in his mind.

'Given enough time with these inheritances, I am certain to make the breakthrough to the Transcendence realm!'

'And when that time comes, what will the so-called prodigy of the Immortal Martial Continent amount to? Nothing, that's what!'

'By then, I'll already be a great powerhouse in the Transcendence realm. The entire Immortal Martial Continent will be mine for the taking!' Bao Xunwu's heart pounded fiercely, resonating with a drum-like rhythm!

Unable to resist his excitement, he took a step forward, and so did the othersuncontainable joy radiating off them!

However, Bao Xunwu had only taken a few steps when a light screen materialized suddenly in his path, blocking everyone's way.

The light screen entrance bore a striking resemblance to the previous bronze entranceonly one was forged of metal, the other a semi-translucent screen of light.

"What? Why is there a light screen blocking our path?" a member of the Golden Proud Cult questioned, their voice laced with surprise.

"We've come this far, passed every test!" another cultivator interjected, their tone marked by frustration.

The expressions on the faces of Bao Xunwu and the others morphed rapidly, their once ebullient moods now laced with potent frustration.

In that instant, lines of text began to form on the light screen entrance.
