Past life sage: This life a dual cultivator
Chapter 158 Aiming For The Inheritance"What a marvel!", Zhan Chen murmured to himself after he checked the simple looking three storied ancestoral palace of Cleansing Incense ancient sect with his soul consciousness.
No one was looking at Zhan Chen at this moment. So, none of the Shen clan experts noticed the change in expression of his face.
Zhan Chen followed after Shen clan experts and entered the ancestoral palace of Cleansing Incense ancient sect. The surrounding inside the ground floor was clamorous as most of the cultivators from different places had gathered here.
"Look, Is not it that group who killed the experts of Lu family!", one cultivator pointed out.
"Shh!, do you want to die?", another cultivator hurriedly stopped his companion who was pointing at the Shen clan experts.
The cultivatator who was pointing at Shen clan experts didn't understand what was going on but he stopped himself after he faced the angry glares of his companions.
Shen clan experts noticed those small commotions but they ignored the surprised look of other cultivators. They followed after Shen Ruyan and walked towards a corner.
"Wu Yan, do you want to die?", the cultivator who stopped his companion from pointing at Shen clan experts looked towards his companion furiously.
The cultivator named Wu Yan was at a loss after looking at the angry looking faces of his companions.
"Everyone, what is wrong?", Wu Yan looked towards his companions with a confused look on his face. A companion of his came forward and muttered something in the ears of Wu Yan.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"They do not fear Lu family. Moreover, I have heard that none of the Lu family experts and the other experts who were helping them are spared. What do you think will happen to you if you anger them by chance", the companion of Wu Yan muttered.
The face of Wu Yan changed after he heard the muttering of his companion and he looked towards the Shen clan group with a fearful look on his face.
----------------
No one dare bother the Shen clan group with their ferocious reputation. All of them followed behind Shen Ruyan and gathered at an empty corner of ground floor. Li Han threw a look and the nearby cultivators hurriedly scattered to give some space to the Shen clan experts.
Zhan Chen noticed some gazes at him from the crowd and most of them were present while he was battling the Lu family experts. A young man who was not yet eighteen, capable of battling fifth stage experts, it was definitely a huge news for the upcoming Grand sect competition.
Zhan Chen didn't mind the sneaky looks of other experts at him. He was currently scanning the entire ground floor with his soul consciousness.
"Fortunately, there is no sixth stage experts", Zhan Chen sighed in relief and withdrew his soul consciousness. Despite his recovered soul strength, he was not yet ready to face those sixth stage experts.
His body had it's limit and it couldn't handle anything above peak fifth stage soul force. 'I have to practice a body cultivation technique immediately after we leave this place', Zhan Chen thought to himself.
The ground floor of the ancestoral palace was relatively large and there was nothing out of ordinary except the peculiar paintings across the hall.
Zhan Chen had already scanned the entire ground floor but couldn't find any of his women inside the entire ground floor. "This ancestoral palace is full of ancient formations. Looks like all of them has managed to get an inheritance for themselves", Zhan Chen mused to himself.
He was in no hurry to check the paintings hung on the wall. So, he stood quitely with the Shen clan experts.
It didn't take time for the Shen clan experts to gather the information about the ground floor. Shen Ruyan listened to all the details from Shen clan experts and turned to look towards Zhan Chen.
"Seems like there is no danger in the ground floor", Shen Ruyan spoke. "It seems so", Zhan Chen nodded his head.
"Everyone, scatter. It will be your fortune if you manage to get an inheritance for yourself", Shen Ruyan spoke. The Shen clan experts bowed lightly towards Shen Ruyan and left towards the different direction of the ground floor.
Zhan Chen smiled towards Shen Ruyan and left towards a random direction. He had already checked all the paintings with his soul consciousness. There was not a single painting which had piqued his interest.
But no matter whether he interested or not, Zhan Chen knew he had a choose a painting for himself. Because without choosing a painting, he couldn't ascend the other two floors of the ancestoral palace.
He had already observed the ground floor of ancestoral building in details. Every nook and corner of the building was filled with traces of ancient formations.
He could identify some of the inscribed formations but there were many other formations that he had not seen in his previous life.
"To find the true inheritance of the Cleansing Insense ancient sect, I must find a painting related to formation technique", Zhan Chen thought to himself.
Zhan Chen threw a look towards Shen Ruyan who was walking with Liu Nanxi. Liu Nanxi still had her cold face on and walking behind Shen Ruyan as if she was Shen Ruyan's shadow.
Both Shen Ruyan and Liu Nanxi had curious looking faces as they examined the ancient paintings one by one. Zhan Chen's soul consciousness lingered on both of them for a while. Then he walked towards the western part of the ground floor.
The crowd was sparse in the western end of the ground floor compared to the other directions of the floor. The reason was simple. It was due to the techniques described in the paintings of the western wall were too complex for the most of the cultivators.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe paintings were for everyone to see but it didn't mean that anyone could observe the true technique described in the paining. It was only those talented cultivators who had an affinity with the technique could earn an opportunity to learn the depicted technique.
When a cultivator found an painting which he had an affinity with, he was transported to an unknown location along with the said painting. Zhan Chen found this process magical and he became more determined to learn the formation techniques of the Cleansing Insense ancient sect.
The paintings of the western wall were comprised of formation techniques and tailsman techniques. Zhan Chen was interested to learn both tailsman technique and formation technique but his knowledge about the art of tailsman making was limited.
So, he reluctantly gave up on tailsman techniques and turned his eyes towards formation paintings.
"Earth guardian formation"
"Five element tribulation formation"
"Nine thunder annihilation formation"
"Sky bewildering formation"
Zhan Chen identified some of the formations on the paintings but there were also paintings about which he didn't have any single clue.
To receive the true inheritance, he must prove his ability. Zhan Chen was aware of this fact. So, he decided to choose at least a higher grade formation.
There were so many formation techniques inscribed on the paintings Of the wall. But, Zhan Chen knew that if he choose any random average formation, then there was the possibility that he may not be choosen for the true inheritance of Cleansing Incense ancient sect.
