This is like Xuan Huo being a bicycle; even if he can't ride it, he can still push it or even carry it along. But Xian Huo is like a big truck—it requires driving skills to make it move according to his will, rather than just flooring the gas pedal and charging ahead.

To get the truck moving, one must either diligently learn how to operate it or transform into Ultraman and run with the truck in tow.

Clearly, Bai Feng couldn't transform into Ultraman, so he had to choose the former.

"Fortunately, I have Yin Yang Wen to help."

Yin Yang Wen not only mimics and learns the opponent's techniques but also accelerates the learning process in normal circumstances.

Bai Feng activated the Xuan Huo Jue to channel the Xian Huo, striving to master it as quickly as possible and destroy the Hei Lian inheritance.

With the assistance of Yin Yang Wen, the intricate details of Xuan Huo Jue seemed to unfold right before him. In less than a day, he had already mastered it, and the once-difficult Xian Huo began to shift into various forms in his hands.

Without hesitation, he pulled out Xiao Qi's sword from his storage bag.

This item became increasingly dangerous the longer it was kept; it had to be dealt with quickly!

At that moment, the sword emitted a faint red glow and trembled continuously, indicating that the sealed inheritance inside was becoming restless.

"Is it because too much time has passed since Xiao Qi was last here?" Bai Feng murmured.

But it didn't matter; soon, he would be able to leave Xiao Qi behind forever.

"Burning Spirit, unleash!"

Flames transformed into fine threads, wrapping around the sword's body.

Instantly, the sword began to tremble violently, and the clash of their powers caused cracks to spread across the blade.

Crack, crack...

Boom!

The ordinary spiritual weapon, the long sword, could no longer withstand the conflict of forces and shattered into countless pieces.

"Now's my chance!"

Bai Feng opened his eyes, and the Burning Spirit sent out more threads, completely binding the Hei Lian inheritance within.

The intense flames began to burn, and the tightly bound Hei Lian inheritance could only 'watch' as it was gradually consumed.

Just as the last remnants of the Hei Lian inheritance were incinerated, a sudden wave of energy surged forth.

A melodious voice echoed in the room: "It seems you are the one she cares about the most. Shall we have a chat?"

Bai Feng remained silent, or rather, he responded with his actions.

He intensified the flames, relentlessly burning the last traces of the inheritance.

"Useless! Even if you destroy the inheritance I left behind, you can't protect her forever."

"It's not that I chose her; it's that she is destined to join us."

"That's her fate."

The pleasant voice continued to resonate in the room, but Bai Feng turned a deaf ear. It wasn't until the last trace was burned away that the voice abruptly ceased.

After completing this, he exhaled slowly, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and spat at the shattered sword, "What a load of nonsense! Talking to a villain like you can only lead to trouble!"

Then he ignited another fire, incinerating the broken sword completely.

Once he finished, he felt a slight sense of relief. He hadn't expected the Hei Lian to come looking for him, and from what she said, it seemed she hadn't given up; he might even be on her radar.

He couldn't leave the sect anymore!

Taking a deep breath to calm himself, Bai Feng put away the Xian Huo and took out the inheritance disk from Qian Zhen Zong. This was the very thing he had risked so much to obtain in the secret realm.

Hopefully, it would be worth the risk!

"Let me see what the inheritance that the four major sects of the Northern Region are so eager to pursue is all about."

...

Zhong Zhou.

"Huh? Someone actually managed to destroy the inheritance I left behind." A woman dressed in black silk lay on her bed, her pale arm resting on her forehead as she sighed, "Sigh~ If only they were in Zhong Zhou."

She never expected that the inheritor she had painstakingly found would have someone protecting them, and that her inheritance would be destroyed. But isn't this rather interesting? If the one who destroyed her inheritance were to die, what would happen to the inheritor she found?

How exciting~

The woman licked her lips, eagerly anticipating the day that would come.

Among those who had just received a low-level inheritance, there was a promising little fellow; she would let her go.

...

Lian Shen Zong.

Zuo Qiu sat cross-legged on her bed, cultivating. She had indeed turned misfortune into fortune; since her sword was destroyed by Bai Yu Mo, she had escaped the search, unlike others who were dragged out.

Yet every time she recalled that scene, she couldn't help but clench her fists.

She was still too weak, lacking power!

The opponent had repelled her with just one sword strike. Was this the master sister of Tian Jian Zong, the possessor of the Xian Gu? Even with that kind of inheritance, she was no match.

Though she had encountered some fortuitous events in the secret realm, it still wasn't enough.

To defeat Bai Yu Mo... No, better to avoid her altogether; with her talent, she could never catch up to that monstrous freak.

Unless...

"Do you desire power?"

At that moment, a melodious voice rang in her ear.

"Who?" Zuo Qiu instantly became alert.

"Hehehe, I can give you power, a strength far greater than that sword."

Upon hearing the mention of the sword, Zuo Qiu immediately understood.

Was she speaking with the Divine Lord organization of the demonic path in Zhong Zhou, as mentioned by the elders?

How did the Divine Lord find her?

As if sensing her confusion, the voice chuckled and explained, "Hehehe, have you forgotten that you infused spiritual energy in the inheritance site?"

Zuo Qiu's anger flared: "Did you tamper with the spiritual energy?"

Damn it! She shouldn't have let power blind her and touched that ominous inheritance!

"Don't say it like that; it was just a minor observation technique~"

Zuo Qiu fell silent, realizing she was likely unable to shake off the Divine Lord's influence.

"So, what's the price?"

She raised her head, not immediately agreeing. After the inheritance incident, she understood that gaining power came at a cost.

"Hehehe~ It's simple. I want you to eliminate Bai Feng from Tian Jian Zong."

Zuo Qiu froze for a second, pointing at herself: "Huh? Me?"

**Chapter 79: Senior Sister, What Does Your Family Do?**

Bai Feng set down the inheritance disk and rubbed his slightly swollen head.

The inheritance of Qian Zhen Zong indeed contained some valuable insights; even though he had mastered formations, it still felt quite challenging.

"No wonder people say Qian Zhen Zong obtained the inheritance of the Immortal Gate; this intricate design is truly not something an ordinary person could conceive."

He tapped his forehead lightly. The essence of Qian Zhen Zong's formations could be summarized simply—it's about stacking formations.

Generally speaking, stacking formations leads to conflicts between them; even increasing the size of a formation rarely exceeds ten layers.

However, Qian Zhen Zong could stack formations dozens of times, theoretically allowing for over a thousand layers, which is where its name comes from.

Unfortunately, that was merely theoretical. At the peak of Qian Zhen Zong, they had only managed to stack just over two hundred formations, most of which were simple and singular in function, making further breakthroughs difficult.

"However, while stacked formations look impressive, they also cost a fortune!"

Bai Feng sighed. Ever since he began studying formations, his long-saved little stash was nearly depleted.

With this money-guzzler on his hands, he truly couldn't keep up!

"Am I going to have to take on side jobs?"

Bai Feng couldn't help but seriously consider this. Previously, he hadn't made money by helping others build formations because he had just entered Tian Jian Zong, lacked a reputation, and no one sought him out for formation work. Plus, there were always people targeting him within the sect.

Now that the fated child targeting him was gone, his reputation had grown significantly during the exploration of the secret realm. If he revealed that he could help build formations, many people would likely be willing to pay him, right?

"I'll first help Lin Yan set up the formation in the next few days, then see if I can get him to help promote my services."

Bai Feng made a plan in his mind. After all, formations were crucial to his survival; he had to seize the opportunity to grow stronger.

Moreover, there were simply too many fated children around; avoiding them could only reduce encounters but wouldn't completely eliminate interactions with them.

He even had a premonition that even if he hid in a remote mountain forest, a fated child would still drop from the sky right in front of him.

Thus, strength was essential; he needed to at least reach a level where he could protect himself.

Even during the most dismal times in the Bai family, he had never given up on cultivation, and now, he certainly wouldn't abandon it.
