Chapter 295: Hidden Legacy Activated
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After evading the three great families, the group of scattered cultivators and cultivators from the small factions, Lu Yu retrieved from the interspatial ring that legacy plaque he had obtained from the Hu family’s secret treasure vault within the Southern Seas Hotel.
As Lu Yu took out that legacy plaque, that legacy plaque he obtained from the five people from the Lin family also began vibrating violently.
At the same time, Song Yu and Ying You who had gathered before the veil of green light, the youth leading the Chu family and that scattered cultivator all looked at the legacy plaques in their hands.
“Oh no! Someone has taken out the last legacy plaque. This hidden legacy is going to be activated!”
Song Yu was the first to react and she yelled out frantically. The trio of Ying You and the rest standing by her side also appeared somewhat anxious.
“Sister Song Yu, there’s no time to lose. Looks like we must enter the hidden legacy as soon as possible. If we delay any further, someone else will get there before us!”
Ying You looked at the legacy plaque in his hand glowing brightly and said to Song Yu and the other two.
Upon hearing Ying You’s reminder, Song Yu nodded and said to the subordinate next to her somewhat anxiously, “Go! Get Lu Yu back at once. We can’t afford to delay anymore!”
After receiving Song Yu’s order, that Song family’s member hurriedly turned around and dashed off in the direction that Lu Yu had left.
However, after searching high and low carefully, he still could not find any sign of Lu Yu.
Thus, this Song family member could only return to the location where the veil of green light was empty-handed. He cupped his hands helplessly at Song Yu.
“Sister Song Yu, I have searched everywhere but can’t find Lu Yu at all. I’m afraid he may have met with some mishap!”
When she heard her subordinate’s report, Song Yu knitted her brows immediately.
“How can that be? He had clearly left in that direction. How can he disappear without a trace?”
Looking at Song Yu’s puzzled expression, Ying You, who was standing by her side, spoke up.
“Sister Song Yu, I think we better lead our family members to go in quickly!”
“If other people were to get there before us, we are going to get a big dressing-down from our elders when we return to our respective families!” Ying You lapsed into silence after speaking, watching Song Yu quietly.
Under Yong You’s gaze, Song Yu could only let out a long sigh. She then turned to the members of the Song family and said, “Alright. In that case, I will lead Song Ke and the rest to go in. The rest of you stay outside and stand guard over this place.”
“If you guys see Lu Yu after we have gone in, tell him to wait here until we come out.”
“Yes, Sister Song Yu. Don’t worry. When Lu Yu comes back, we will definitely convey your message to him verbatim!”
After the group of Song family members heard Song Yu’s words, they all responded to indicate they had understood.
After getting the group’s reassurance, Song Yu did not say anything else. She led the group of 10 pre-selected Song family members and activated the legacy plaque in her hand together with Ying You’s group.
After activating the legacy plaques, in addition to the 11 people from the group of scattered cultivators and cultivators from the small factions, a total of 44 people all went into that expanse of green light veil.
Just as the group of people stepped into this veil of green light, Lu Yu had already stepped inside this patch of green light veil.
After Lu Yu entered the veil of green light, he was so astounded by what he saw that he stood rooted to the same spot in a daze.
In the void right before Lu Yu’s eyes lay a sea of floating humongous monster corpses.
From these corpses, Lu Yu could clearly discern waves of auras that were comparable to those from the cultivators at the War Demigod level.
This meant that these monster corpses before Lu Yu’s eyes were at least of the SS-class level when they were alive!
In the midst of these monster corpses, a broken remnant of a battle saber floated above. An aura that felt ancient and primeval emanated from its body.
After sensing the aura emitted by this battle saber, Lu Yu couldn’t help exclaiming out loud.
“Looks like the previous owner of this battle saber was a powerful expert who exceeded the War Demigod realm!”
As Lu Yu muttered to himself, he walked slowly towards that battle saber.
When he reached the spot just below that battle saber, that battle saber suddenly began shaking violently. A mysterious phantom figure gradually materialized from there.
“How many years has it been? The descendant of our human race has finally arrived at this place. Descendant, how many years have lapsed since that Great Calamity?”
“Has the human race defeated those despicable monsters and restored peace to the world?”
An aged voice rang out slowly from the mouth of this mysterious phantom figure and drifted into Lu Yu’s ears.
In the face of this mysterious phantom figure’s inquiry, Lu Yu hesitated for a moment before he answered.
“Forefather, thousands of years have passed since the Great Calamity. Although our human race has not completely defeated those monsters, we have re-established an order that belonged to our human race!”
After hearing Lu Yu’s reply, that mysterious phantom figure fell silent for a while. After that, it began laughing heartily.
“Hahaha! The heavens are really watching over our human race! Looks like the forefathers of our human race from the netherworld are still protecting you descendants!”
“Good. I do not have much time left. I shall not talk such rubbish with you anymore.”
“I am sure you were able to enter this place because you must have obtained one of the five legacy plaques I left behind back then. Thus, you are qualified to take the test I have for you.”
“If you can successfully pass the test I set for you, then you can select a treasure that you want from my life-long legacy!”
As the voice of the mysterious phantom figure trailed off, Lu Yu took out that legacy plaque he had obtained from the Hu family’s secret treasure vault within the Southern Seas Hotel.
“Forefather, I have also obtained this legacy plaque. I don’t know whether this plaque was also left behind by you?”
As Lu Yu spoke, he raised the legacy plaque high above his head.
The mysterious phantom figure which was fairly calm and composed suddenly became very excited after sensing the aura emanating from the legacy plaque Lu Yu took out.
“This… this is the plaque left behind by our human race’s ancestors. This is heaven’s will! It’s heaven’s will!”
“Looks like you are the chosen one that our human race’s ancestors have selected!”
As the mysterious phantom figure spoke, its figure flashed and reappeared before Lu Yu.
It was only at this point that Lu Yu saw clearly this mysterious phantom figure’s facial feature.
It was the face of an extremely aged and haggard looking old man. His eyes revealed a look that hinted at the many trials and tribulations he had experienced.
The old man’s expression seemed to be telling many tales of what he had encountered in the past.
After sizing up the old man, a sense of respect inexplicably welled up in Lu Yu’s heart. He prostrated himself directly at the old man’s feet.
“Descendant of the human race Lu Yu hereby pay his respect to Forefather of the human race!”
Looking at Lu Yu who was prostrating before him, the old man said slowly,
“Rise, descendant. You have no need to offer so much respect to me.. You are the future of our human race!”
