Chapter 604
“Every time a baby girl is born in our Valley, she must open the door and enter the Wuding River to cultivate and absorb the power of the river water when she’s five years old. Those with high talent needed three to four years to achieve it, while those with low talent needed more than ten years to achieve small success. Perhaps it’s because they’ve cultivated this cultivation technique, but the women of my Mei family have been married to outsiders for generations, giving birth to only girls.”
what? ” Yunxiao was stunned. there’s such a thing? ” I understand now, is it that after you two get married, this kind of appraisal Divine Art will be passed on to men?”
Aunt Jiu blushed and nodded. “Young master Yun is truly intelligent. After a man and a woman get together, the embryonic essence of the cultivation technique will be planted in the man’s body. As the man continues to cultivate, it will gradually grow and eventually become an appraisal technique. The process is extremely complicated, so I won’t go through it one by one.”
Aunt Jiu looked away and glanced at Mei Dong ‘er. She said coldly, ” but more than ten years ago, not long after your mother gave birth to you, she actually lost the key to the gate of the Wuding River!
Mei Dong ‘er’s face was pale, and she seemed to be a little agitated.
‘Lost?’ Yunxiao asked. Doesn’t that mean that no one in the Mei family has been able to master the divine Art of identification for the past ten years?”
Aunt Jiu shook her head. when wanbai lost the key, my mother was furious. She threw him and Mei Dong ‘er’s father into the Wuding River. The door has been opened by my mother alone for more than ten years. It has never been closed for more than ten years. Last year, my mother overexerted herself and passed away.”
It turned out that there was such a hidden story. No wonder the people of the plum Valley were so cold to Mei Dong ‘er.
“I’m sorry, ninth aunt,” Mei Dong ‘er said guiltily.”I apologize to you and the elderly head on behalf of my mother.”
“Apologize? Can your apology resurrect my mother? Can your apology make the closed door open again?”
Aunt Jiu became more and more agitated. She could not help but say angrily, ” “Not only did your mother cause me to lose my mother, but she also put the Mei family in an unprecedented predicament. The direct consequence was the loss of the appraisal Divine Art and the disappearance of the continent!”
The atmosphere suddenly became stiff, and Yunxiao frowned in silence. Li Feiyu was even more surprised. According to what he had said, the current Mei family was the last generation of people with the divine Art of identification. This not only affected the Mei family, but also affected the operation of the merchant Union.
ninth aunt, ” Yunxiao suddenly said. you want to refine a peerless weapon just to cut open that door? ”
Aunt Jiu nodded her head and said, ” that’s right. If we can’t cut open the door, the Mei family’s Divine Art of identification will be cut off!
since it’s something tangible, ” Yunxiao said with a frown, ” it must be the Dao of destruction. Actually, you don’t have to go through so much trouble. Wouldn’t it be more effective to spend a lot of money to hire several powerhouses at the peak of the Martial Emperor realm?”
“Young master Yun, do you really not know, or are you doing this on purpose?” aunt Jiu asked with a wry smile. There are a few peak martial sovereigns in this world. Even if my measly Mei family were to use all of our wealth, we might not be able to invite them. My previous plan was to gather all the forces of the plum Valley and forge a divine weapon. If there is enough heavenly shine metal as material, I think it should be able to cut it open.”
Her eyes were filled with hope again as she said, ” “I think young master Yun’s sword is made of the northern heaven frigid Star Iron, and it’s a ninth-grade one at that. If you’re willing to part with it, I’m afraid you’ll have to part with it.”
“There’s no need to say anything, it’s impossible!”
no! Yunxiao refused flatly. The northern heaven cold star sword was related to the heavenly Sword diagram he was going to refine, and each of them was extremely precious.
“What if I let Mei Dong ‘er return to the Mei family?” ninth aunt scoffed.
She could see that Yunxiao loved Mei Dong ‘er very much. Whether it was friendship or love, as long as it could solve the big problem of the Mei family, nothing else was a problem.
Mei Dong ‘er’s heart trembled as she looked at Yunxiao with pitiful eyes.
that sword is extremely important to me, ” Yunxiao said. I won’t give it to you, but I can try to help you open the door.
Aunt Jiu looked disappointed and said, ” “Young master Yun’s sword strike just now was indeed earth-shattering, but it was not enough to split the door open. If it still doesn’t work, I can only count on the merchant Union’s help.”
Li Feiyu said,”the ten thousand treasures tower will definitely do our best to assist you. However, even the ten thousand treasures tower can’t use the power of a peak martial Supreme. However, we will do our best in terms of resources and other aspects.” However, I can see that young master Yun’s abilities are not small. Ninth aunt, you can really let him try. Perhaps there will be an unexpected effect.”
ninth aunt, please let young master Yun try, ” Mei Dong ‘er suddenly said. besides, my parents were sunk into the Wuding River back then. I also want to pay my respects to them as soon as possible and even salvage their remains.
“The remains are definitely gone,” aunt Jiu replied. Even my mother can’t go too deep into the Wuding River, and ordinary female disciples can only cultivate on the surface. With my power back then, I could only dive five hundred meters at most. A gravity technique was cast on your parents and they directly sank down. I’m guessing that they’ve long since disappeared without a trace.”
Mei Dong ‘er’s heart ached when she heard this. She cried, ” mother has committed a grave crime, and Dong ‘er can’t absolve her of it. I hope I can try my best. If it really doesn’t work, even paying my respects would be good. It would fulfill my wish.
you’ll have to open the door first, ” aunt Jiu snorted. if young master Yun is willing to try, please come with me.
Aunt Jiu led the group through the forest for a while and came to a plum forest, where the fragrance of plum flowers permeated the air.
There was an exquisite small teleportation formation hidden in the forest. It looked very simple.
Aunt Jiu said, ” this is the teleportation array that leads to the Wuding River. The Mei family’s ancestors have tried their best to find the exact location of the Wuding River, but they have not been able to find it. Only the spatial coordinates recorded in this teleportation array can teleport you there. Please go up.
Yunxiao looked at the teleportation array in surprise. It was by no means an item of the current era. The Mei family’s inheritance should have been passed down for a very long time, and it was very likely that it had been passed down since they obtained the mysterious appraisal power.
The few of them walked into the formation, and aunt nine began to cast a spell to activate the formation. Soon, various rays of light shot out, and the group disappeared into the Merlin forest.
In the next moment, he appeared in a space that was lit up by day. Everything was white, and it extended into the distance. In the middle of this white light, there was a huge gate.
“This bi an ...”
Yunxiao nearly fainted. it’s really a gate, ” he said with a wry smile. there seems to be nothing but it. This kind of spatial land should have been opened up by an ancient Almighty. It was unknown where it had been lost to now, and the only way to enter was through Merlin’s coordinates. It’s normal that the Mei family’s ancestors couldn’t find the space.”
“That’s right,” aunt Jiu said. Young master Yun’s speculation was exactly the same as the Mei family’s ancestors’. For this reason, the spatial coordinates were extremely important. Once lost, the entire Mei family’s appraisal technique would be completely lost. This is the gate to the Wuding River. Young master Yun, do you have a way to break it?”
The few of them walked forward and began to touch the door with their hands. It was completely bronze in color, and it felt like an ordinary metal to the touch. They couldn’t see anything wrong. The two huge door rings were a few meters high and difficult to reach.
strange, this is just ordinary brass. Could it be that there is a powerful seal on it that makes it impossible to break? ”
Mo Huayuan was the first to raise his doubts, but he couldn’t find anything amiss despite his knocking and divine sense probing. young master Yun, have you found anything? ”
Yunxiao looked up at the towering door with a puzzled look on his face as he said, ” aunt Jiu, have you tried? no matter how you attack, you can’t move the copper Door at all? ”
Aunt Jiu said guiltily, ” it’s true. Even a ninth-tier Mystic weapon was used. It even caused a Martial Emperor to be seriously injured by the backlash of the mystic weapon. However, it didn’t leave any marks on the door.
Li Feiyu was greatly shocked,”A Martial Emperor can’t even use a ninth tier profound armament? Even a peak martial Supreme might not be able to break open this Kasaya!”
“So, the Mei family has fallen into an unprecedented crisis,” aunt Jiu said with a bitter smile.
I see, ” Yunxiao said. the door is not here.
“What?”
His words shocked everyone, and they fell into deep thought. What do you mean, young master Yun? ” aunt Jiu asked in surprise. can you explain in detail? ”
Yunxiao nodded and said, ” this gate is like a teleportation array. It is a hub that connects two places. It must have a physical body standing in one of the spaces, and a projection on the other.
Aunt Jiu’s heart turned cold and she said awkwardly, ” “Are you saying that this door isn’t a real entity, but a projection? How is that possible? I clearly felt it when I touched it!” It was hard for her to accept this reality. If that was the case, then the Mei family would never have any hope of opening this door.
Yunxiao chuckled. who said that a projection must be an illusory body? ” he said. Why can’t you just cast a physical body?”
“This bi an ...”
...
This concept was hard for everyone to accept, but after thinking about it carefully, they felt that it was possible. There was no clear boundary between reality and illusion. If one was strong enough, it was not impossible to project a real body.
if it’s like this, ” aunt Jiu said, ” if it’s like this, won’t the Mei family have no hope? ”
Her face was ashen, and she refused to accept Yunxiao’s deduction. However, he believed it without a doubt because it was just as mo Huayuan had said. This was just an ordinary brass door, and there were no formations or restrictions on it. They had used ninth tier profound armaments and the power of a Martial Emperor, but they were still unable to move it at all, not even leaving a single mark. This simply did not make sense.
But, if it was as Yunxiao had said, it would make complete sense.
Aunt Jiu felt the world spin around her and she was in a daze.
