396 Inheritance (1/2)

It took only a dozen minutes before the Elementals remaining in the room were taken care of. Lin Yun took out a few mana crystals to replenish his mana while examining this place. When he first came in, countless Elemental Spirits had rushed over, so only now was he able to properly examine this room.

He was suddenly attracted by something in the corner of the room. After approaching, he noticed a deep blue crystal that was roughly the size of a head and felt cold to the touch, which made him curious. 'What is this?'

'Emperor Zhantui should have spent so much on this hovering palace, so it's safe to say that nothing here is ordinary, yet that crystal ball seems very common. There isn't a thread of mana coming from it. Could it be a mechanism of some sort?'

When this thought flashed in Lin Yun's mind, he tried pouring his mana in. But the result left him disappointed, as there was no change to the crystal ball.

But Lin Yun had yet to give up. He observed the crystal ball and thought of moving it, but when his hand touched the bottom of the crystal ball, he discovered a notch. This instantly made him frown. He took out the strange mana crystal he got earlier and attempted to put it in the notch.

A light flashed as the crystal ball quickly rotated, displaying a projection on the opposite wall. But the time it lasted was too short. It only felt like a second to Lin Yun. He only had the time to throw a hurried glance at it, and he wasn't able to see what the projection was before it disappeared. Lin Yun couldn't help feeling annoyed. He turned to look at Enderfa only to see him looking back at him.

”Enderfa, did you see that projection?” Lin Yun threw a strange look at Enderfa.

”It looked like a map.”

”A map?” Lin Yun frowned. He thought of the glimpse of the projection he had seen after hearing Enderfa's words and felt that this might indeed be a map. He lowered his head to look at the azure crystal ball before reaching for the notch with his hand, only to find out that the mana of that strange mana crystal had long since been absorbed. When his hand came into contact with it, the mana crystal turned to ashes. ”That crystal seems to be supported by that special energy, and that map is most likely the map of the entire palace!”

”To completely learn the map, one would need a large number of mana crystals, just like the Flame Vulture's. Would there be some in this palace?”

After saying this, Lin Yun and Enderfa headed towards the depths of the palace. The entire palace was like a huge maze with countless rooms and countless hallways, and they were exactly the same. It was very easy for one to get lost inside the palace.

After three hours of wandering around the palace, Lin Yun discovered that magic beasts were living there, but they weren't powerful enough. Of the thirteen he met, the strongest was only level 32...

During these three hours, he also discovered many sword gashes as well as faint mana fluctuations that gave him a familiar feeling. He took out some of the mana fluctuations he had collected in the Bloodshed Forest which had belonged to the Gaugass King and compared them. Sure enough, they were identical!

This proved that Emperor Zhantui and the Gaugass King had once fought in this palace, and it was very likely that they finished their battle here.

If he had guessed right, then that six-formula Meditation Law Set might very likely be hidden in a corner of this palace.

But that palace was too spacious, who knows how long it would take him if he went room to room. Thus, he could only rely on the map projected by the crystal ball, hoping he could glean some clues from it.

He soon reached the crystal ball's room and casually put a mana crystal in the notch. The crystal ball changed and projected a scene on the wall. It really was a map, but this time, the crystal ball was supplied with a total of thirteen mana crystals and lasted for a dozen seconds before that scene disappeared.

With Lin Yun's outstanding memory, a dozen seconds would be more than enough to accurately record the details of that map. But when that map appeared, seven static cursors were dispersed in seven different directions. He secretly recorded them, but he couldn't understand what they represented.

Following the map he memorized, Lin Yun fumbled around the palace for a while, but he didn't discover anything apart from magic beasts. He chose not to take their mana crystals since they could only be used on the crystal ball.

He frowned when he reached a certain place. He stopped before a black wall that was very different from the rest of the building. It was huge and had an array inscribed on it.

Lin Yun walked to the black wall and softly hit it with his hand.

A hollow sound came from the wall, and it wasn't thick. That wall might be hiding a room.

Lin Yun stood in front of the wall for a long time...

Because Lin Yun suddenly recalled that this wall was located at one of the seven lights he had seen on the map earlier.
