Chapter 168 - The Tomb Master
Chapter 168 - The Tomb Master
Jian had activated the Star Gaze to check on the person looking at Jian, but as Jian had activated the Star Gaze, he felt a headache, similar to when he looked up in the sky.
The headache was more severe; he had dropped his Saber and was clutching on to his head. As he was about to activate the Star Gaze, the system wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
The person moved towards Jian and told him not to check anything he could introduce himself. Then he introduced himself as the tomb master of this tomb and said that his name is Qian Tingfeng.
Jian was still clutching onto his head. He had heard what Qian Tingfeng had said, but still, he was not able to stand. After a few minutes, when the pain was gone, Jian cursed the system.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? "
"Host, you should check the cultivation level instead of activating Star Gaze. You should know that you are in a tomb. Even though you can use your ability freely, you shouldn't go and check everything if you can't understand.
You don't know what is hidden inside a tomb. So it would help if you were careful before activating Star Gaze. The person in front of you knows that you have an ability that allows you to see through everything.
But he only knows that, so you shout stop depending upon your ability. Your ability is low level. Any cultivators above Nascent Soul Realm can tell that you have the power. "
Jian was shocked to hear that the person in front of him knew that he had an ability. He panicked; he then thought Qian Tingfeng knew about the system.
"Host, no need to worry in this world no one will able to tell that you have the system of you don't tell them."
Jian sighed a relief; he agreed with the system because he had depended upon Star Gaze than he realised. Because most of the things he sees can be done baya cultivator, who doesn't have any ability.
He understood the system's reasoning. Then, he cleared his mind and adjusted his state, but suddenly he was shocked that a string of information had appeared in his head. He didn't hesitate to read them.
Name: Qian Tingfeng
Cultivation: ??????....
Cultivation Technique: ??????...
Martial Arts Technique:??????...
Physique:????????....
Jian was shocked when he looked at the name; he understood that it was information about the person standing in front of him. He was shocked after seeing the further information. Because aside from question marks, nothing was there, and the question marks ended with dots, so there were continuous.
If it were a limited number of questions mark, then he would be able to guess what is the difference between the level of cultivation,n, and the number of question marks continued and not only in cultivation but everything else.
Jian was speechless, and as he was about to ask the system, he got the answer.
"No need to get shocked Host, even if you are at the peak of cultivation in this realm, you will not be able to determine his cultivation.
Also, if he has not told you his name, then you will not be able to any information related to him. So need to get shocked."
Jian was speechless after hearing the system; he couldn't understand what was going on. He knew that it was not the time to ask the system. Qian Tingfeng was still looking at Jian, who was sitting clutching his head.
Jian calmed himself and slowly stood up with his Saber. He kept the Saber in the ring and immediately bowed.
"Greetings, Senior, and sorry for using the ability. Curiosity got me?"
"No need to apologise, I also want to check how your ability works, but from the look of it, you were not able to find anything."
Qian Tingfeng laughed and told Jian to stand up straight. He kept looking at Jian and was showing multiple expressions. Jian was getting nervous; he didn't know what Qian Tingfeng was doing.
"Interesting, even though you practice inverse cultivation, your technique is not entirely inverse, but it is also not completely normal.
It looks ok like because of this, you were able to qualify for my tomb. The bloodline you possess can be very high level, but it is not entirely activated.
This is the first time in my life I have met a person in a lower realm with a physique and abloodline."
Jian was speechless; he didn't feel though that Qian Tingfeng would tell everything about Jian. He started to get panic. He wanted to ask the system for help, but Qian Tingfeng continued.
"No need to be afraid; I am just stating the facts. I am not asking you to reveal anything. Everyone has their secrets."
Jian sighed relief and once bowed towards Qian Tingfeng and thanked him.
"Are you the one who created this tomb?"
"what do you think? Isn't it great everyone will get the chance as long as they qualify for the inheritance.
The task is straightforward and is solely based on gathering resources."
Jian nodded; he then thought about all tasks they had done. All were based on gathering resources. Jian had not gone to many tombs, so he didn't have anything to compare but listening to Qian Tingfeng, he understood that his grave was more accessible.
"I would have wanted you to take my inheritance buy looks like your own inheritance is more significant than mine, and you are an inverse cultivator.
It looks like I would have to depend on those two to continue my legacy."
Jian was confused because he was with Qian Tingfeng, then another personal Tingfeng was talking about aside from Song Yu.
Qian Tingfeng saw a confused look on Jian and understood that Jian didn't know that there was another person from inside the tomb other than Jian and Song Yu.
"You don't know that there is another person aside from Song Yu. It looks like you didn't meet him in the tomb.
But it would be impossible if you think how he got inside the tomb."
Jian was shocked; he finally understood that it was that person whose presence he had felt in the first part of the tomb. Jian looked at Qian and asked.
"Senior, where is Song Yu?"
"She still has the breakthrough. Do you want to see what their final trial will be?"
Jian didn't know how he would kill him but still nodded. Then Qian Tingfeng waved his hand. A circle appeared on the wall, which worked as the screen, and Jian was able to see Song Yu sitting in a meditation pose.
He was shocked after seeing her cultivation reaching a peak of Foundation Building Realm. He didn't expect her to improve this early. He nodded and agreed that this tomb was for her to improve.
"She is a good seedling, and her talent is astonishing. It is good that she had not started learning anything new to follow the same route as me.
Let me tell you, for the final trial, they both have to fight each other for the storage ring kept in the centre of the forest."
Qian Tingfeng explained the last trial and waved his hand. The circle immediately started to zoom out. After a few seconds, Jian saw a large forest in the centre, and at the end, Song Yu was sitting on one side and the opposite side of the forest; a person, asks, seated in meditation.
Both were sitting at the end of the forest opposite each other. Jian then focused on the middle of the forest and found that a storage ring was kept near the tree.
Jian didn't expect the last trial to be this easy. He relaxed a bit. Qian Tingfeng saw that Jian was settled.
" No need to relax; the last trial is going to be a lot harder for her. Her opponent is not that easy to fight. You will see when the trial would start."
Jian frowned, listening to Qian Tingfeng. Then he thought if he could feel Song Yu's cultivation from the circle, then he could activate Star Gaze to check out her opponent.
Jian asked the system and got permission. He immediately activated Star and focused on her opponent.
A string of information appeared, but he couldn't understand it, so he asked the system to explain. The system's explanation continued for five after learning about her opponent. He was shocked.
He immediately looked at Qian Tingfeng with a shocked and confused expression. Qian Tingfeng was confused because he couldn't understand why Jian was looking at him.
"Senior, why did you allow him to take part in your inheritance?"
"Ohh! It looks like you were able to see his identity. I didn't expect your eyes to be this powerful.
But you don't need to know why I allowed him to take part in the trial. It is my decision. You have to wait and see."
Jian was speechless, but he couldn't say anything. He looked at Song Yu and then at her opponent. He started to wish for Song Yu's safety.
Because he has found something about her opponent's identity which doesn't allow him to be in this tomb.
