Chapter 88 Breakthrough
The life and death of Dao Zong is a mystery.
Many people speculate that he died of serious injuries after that battle, otherwise he would not have been absent for so many years.
If he really died, would he leave a legacy?
In this world, many masters will leave a legacy before they die, so that disciples or future generations can go further through their own legacy.
Although the body is dead, the way of the body is still continuing.
In the eyes of some people, this is a kind of alternative immortality.
"The inheritance of Dao Zong is the lifelong yearning of those who practice swordsmanship of my generation." Li Ren looked solemn and told Chu Liang those secrets, old news and legends of the world.
He lived longer than Chu Liang, and had been in the world earlier than Chu Liang. He had been to the capital city and knew many rumors and anecdotes.
In the eyes of younger disciples, Li Ren is a typical old man in the world.
"Maybe that Dao Zong senior is not dead yet." Chu Liang expressed his thoughts.
"But after all, it has been a hundred years. If he is not dead, where would he be now?"
Li Ren was in a complicated mood, and his eyes stayed on the stone tablet of the town hall.
It is rumored that the inheritance of Dao Zong is in a secret place, and it can be opened as long as certain special tokens are collected.
Some people also say that the inheritance of Dao Zong is his life experience.
As long as you follow the path that Dao Zong walked when he was young, walk it again, visit all the people he has contacted, and experience everything he has experienced, you can become another Dao Zong.
There are various opinions.
In short, everything left by Dao Zong may contain information about its inheritance.
The remains of the Tianshan battle that year have long been divided up by some thousand-year-old families and royal dignitaries, and the objects related to Dao Zong’s life experience have also been eaten up by various forces.
The stone tablet in Li Ren’s hand is just a very inconspicuous small object.
But in order to bring it back to the county, he almost died.
"This stone tablet..."
Chu Liang took a closer look.
The stone tablet is gray and white, and the knife mark on the surface is indeed extraordinary at first glance, as if it has a special charm.
But if you experience it carefully, the charm disappears again, leaving only an ordinary trace.
He couldn't help but frown, concentrating and looking at it very attentively, but still couldn't figure out what it meant.
"You should study this stone tablet carefully. I have been looking at it for many years but I still can't get its essence, and I can't even imitate one tenth of its charm."
Li Ren sighed lightly. After all, his realm was too low, not even the leather refining realm.
His understanding of the way of the sword was limited to imitating the predecessors.
"Thank you, Master."
Chu Liang bowed his hands to thank him and accepted the stone tablet.
In fact, he couldn't see anything for the time being.
Li Ren thought Chu Liang was gifted and hoped that Chu Liang could understand something, but Chu Liang's talent was not much better.
"Maybe it's just a very ordinary knife mark, without any special meaning, you don't need to feel any pressure." He explained a few words, then turned and left.
In this way, Chu Liang's yard had an unremarkable stone tablet.
He walked around the stone tablet several times, but he was still at a loss.
"See if the Evolution Treasure Book can give you some information." Chu Liang simply sat in front of the stone tablet, focused his eyes, and stared at it carefully for a long time.
But no matter how he looked, the Evolution Treasure Book did not give any hints.
"Strange, even if it is an ordinary stone, the Evolution Treasure Book can evolve it into a gem, how can this stone tablet not have any hints?"
This was the first time Chu Liang encountered such a situation.
His Evolution Treasure Book should be a very advanced object, after all, it is a treasure that has accompanied him for two lifetimes.
This stone tablet can't be more advanced than the Evolution Treasure Book, right?
According to the owner of the museum, Li Ren, this stone tablet was left by the sword sect when he was young. At that time, the sword sect was not a master, probably a second-rate or first-rate master.
"Is there another hidden story?"
Chu Liang thought for a while, but still couldn't understand it.
Finally, he shook his head and let it go.
"Let it go for now, and comprehend this thing when you have time in the future. Now focus on blood and blood and the three swords of autumn."
Chu Liang knew which was more important, and temporarily put the stone tablet behind him.
At this time, the outside was already in an uproar.
Many disciples in the martial arts hall were discussing this.
"It is said that the treasure of the town hall contains the secret of the sword of the master level. If you can unlock it, you can become a master of the generation!"
Even the new disciples who have not yet sensed the blood and qi were excited, as if the road to the master was right in front of them.
"The owner of the hall is really partial. He actually gave all the treasures of the town hall to Chu Liang!"
"It's not giving, it's borrowing."
Tie Niu defended Chu Liang.
He was partial to Chu Liang and thought that the more treasures Chu Liang got, the better.
"Give? Borrow? What's the difference? The owner said he can watch it as long as he wants."
"Alas, why is the gap between people so big?"
In another courtyard, Qi Bai, Liu Qing, Huang He and others were also discussing, and they all felt unhappy.
They thought they were talented.
In terms of swordsmanship, they were the most talented disciples in the martial arts hall.
They studied hard and often asked the sword master for advice.
With the picky eyes of the sword master, he rarely criticized them, but often praised them.
"Chu Liang is indeed talented in martial arts, and I am ashamed of myself in this respect." Qi Bai sighed secretly, "But talent in martial arts does not mean talent in swordsmanship. I also want to see the treasure of the museum."
"Who doesn't want to see it?"
Liu Qing felt sour in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more sour he felt.
"Chu Liang probably hasn't even started swordsmanship yet. It's a waste to lend him the treasure of the town hall. How about lending it to me? Maybe I can figure out the secrets soon."
They were all envious, even a little jealous.
The owner was really good to Chu Liang. He was not so good to his own disciples.
"Didn't the owner's two disciples say anything?"
Qi Bai suddenly spoke up, wanting to know the reaction.
"I don't know. Those two are in the Martial Alliance. They both have positions in the Martial Alliance and only come back once a week." Liu Qing shook his head and said.
"If they come back, how will they view Chu Liang?" Huang He asked.
"With their tempers, I'm afraid they will challenge Chu Liang directly."
"Isn't the owner worried? If he intervenes directly, the other two disciples will inevitably feel resentful."
Several people were a little confused.
They had some complaints about the owner's partiality, but they didn't dare to say too much.
They could only be considered elite disciples.
But the owner's two disciples were different. With their identities, they were fully qualified to question this matter.
Even if the owner really accepted Chu Liang as his personal disciple, Chu Liang's treatment should not be so good.
…
In the yard, Chu Liang was the same as always, and never paid attention to the outside voice.
In the next few days, he concentrated on tempering his blood.
The fourth blood became more and more solid, almost the same as the first three, just one step away.
Time came to the third day.
Evening.
The setting sun was like blood, dyeing half the sky red.
Chu Liang's eyes were bright, his energy was vigorous, his blood was surging, and his skin was red, as if it was burning.
Many days of preparation, just for this moment.
Breakthrough!
Four blood!
"Hu——"
He opened his eyes, his eyes were like lightning, and he exhaled a long breath of hot white air like a dragon.
The fourth blood was completely solid, like a blood-colored dragon, containing unimaginable terrifying power, wandering around in his body.
So far, Chu Liang has taken another step towards the skin refining realm.
The strength of four strands of Qi and blood is already rare in the county.
Even the boxing and kicking masters of the three major martial arts halls, the masters of the various halls of the Qingyi Gang, and the masters of many small martial arts halls only have the strength of four strands of Qi and blood.
