"Jing Yi, are these words true?"
The stone puppet’s gaze was tightly fixed on Lin Feng as it asked with a quivering voice.
Jing Yi nodded and said, "Shi Yi, such matters would never be falsified!"
Hoo!
The stone puppet took a deep breath; it knew that if Jing Yi said as much, it wouldn’t be a lie, but it still found it hard to believe.
For hundreds of thousands of years, they had believed that such a person would never appear, yet now, suddenly, one had.
"Follow !"
Monts later, the stone puppet turned and walked deeper into the palace, with Jing Yi stepping to follow.
Lin Feng pondered for a mont before quickly entering the palace. It seed there shouldn’t be any danger here.
The palace was vast, empty, with a deep passage at the edges. Lin Feng followed the two puppets,walking down the deep passage.
After about thirty minutes, a stone chamber appeared at the end of the passage.
The stone puppet opened the stone chamber’s door, and the three of them walked in.
Lin Feng entered the chamber and his eyes imdiately swept across it, revealing a look of surprise.
It was a huge stone chamber, a thousand feet wide, with countless intricate patterns etched on the floor, forming a gigantic Array. Streaks of white light, like electric serpents, were shuttling through the Array.
Above the Array, a pale blue crystal sphere about two ters in diater was suspended, to which the white electric serpents were ceaselessly converging.
Inside the crystal sphere, there was a grey figure seated cross-legged.
The figure was very ethereal, with an indistinguishable face, showing only that it was very old, with white hair.
At this mont, the ethereal old figure sat quietly inside the crystal sphere, eyes tightly closed, devoid of any signs of life.
Shi Yi looked at the pale blue crystal sphere hovering above, his eyes showing reverence. Then, he moved his hands, casting a series of complex Seal Techniques into the crystal sphere.
Shortly after, a vast and profound aura slowly rose from within the crystal sphere, as if a powerful being was slowly awakening.
A mont later, all the aura rapidly retracted, as the ethereal figure of the white-haired old man inside the crystal sphere solidified slightly.
"Shi Yi pays respects to the Palace Master!"
"Jing Yi pays respects to the Thick Earth Palace Master!"
Jing Yi and Shi Yi, the two puppets, imdiately bowed their bodies, saluting the elder in the pale blue crystal sphere.
"Shi Yi, Jing Yi, how many years has it been?"
An ancient voice ca out from the crystal sphere, filled with endless vicissitude.
"Reporting to the Palace Master, it has been 6,300 years since you last awakened!"
Shi Yi replied respectfully.
Hearing this, Lin Feng was shocked. How long had this elder been alive?
After hearing Shi Yi’s words, the elder was silent for a mont, then spoke solemnly, "What matter?"
"Thick Earth Palace Master, the person we’ve been waiting for has finally appeared!"
Jing Yi said with a tremble in his voice.
As soon as Jing Yi finished speaking, the white-haired elder inside the crystal sphere suddenly opened his eyes, instantly reversing the cosmos and turning mountains and rivers upside down.
The gaze of the white-haired elder imdiately fell on Lin Feng, making Lin Feng’s mind shake as if everything around him disappeared, leaving only the elder before him.
Then, Jing Yi’s voice continued, "His na is Lin Feng. Although his talent is ordinary, both his Gold Attribute and Fire Attribute have reached Level Eight, while his Wood Elent, Water Attribute, and Earth Attribute have all reached Level Seven. Barely eting the standard!"
"Oh!"
Upon hearing this, the white-haired elder’s eyes lit up. Then, his figure moved, quickly floating out of the crystal sphere.
Imdiately, the elder waved his arm, and a phantom image appeared in front of him.
In the phantom, it was Lin Feng on the testing square, undergoing the test, and all of Lin Feng’s test results were clear to see within the phantom image.
After a while, the phantom dispersed, and the white-haired elder’s gaze fell on Lin Feng once again.
"Junior Lin Feng pays respects to his senior!" Lin Feng greeted the white-haired elder without neglect.
"Uh-huh!"
The elder slightly nodded, his gaze piercing straight into Lin Feng’s eyes.
Under the scrutiny of the elder, Lin Feng felt sowhat dazed as if sinking into recollections; scenes of his past kept flickering rapidly across his vision.
Lin Feng remained stunned under the elder’s gaze and only after a long while did he co back to his senses.
"Young man, this matter is of grave importance; I hope you won’t bla this old man!"
The elder had briefly skimd through Lin Feng’s mories and nodded with approval.
The rebirth of the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace and the hopes of the Heavenly Vault Continent necessitated the elder’s utmost caution.
After the inspection, the elder had gained a rough understanding of Lin Feng’s character, finally revealing a broadly pleased smile on his face.
"Hahaha! Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! After tens of thousands of years of waiting, the old man has finally found the one! The Heavenly Vault Continent finally has hope!"
The elder laughed heartily.
After countless years of waiting, having seen so many talents, and yet none eting the requirents, he had almost given up hope. However, now, the arrival of Lin Feng had completely excited him as he seed to see the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace rising again, standing at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Vault Continent.
Lin Feng was unaware that the elder had probed his mories, and his face showed a puzzled expression.
"Young man, the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace has been waiting here for hundreds of thousands of years to find a successor, a successor who could eventually take charge of the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace. You, narrowly et the criteria. Would you be willing to join the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace and beco its Saint Heir?"
The elder didn’t bother to explain further and continued.
"Saint Heir?"
Lin Feng’s eyes lit up at the words; with talents as high as Hong Qingxuan’s and Wenren Tianyi’s, they only beca ordinary disciples, whereas he could beco a Saint Heir!
"What heritage can I obtain by becoming a Saint Heir?"
Lin Feng curiously asked, as obtaining a heritage was his main concern.
"Hehe!"
The elder seed amused and shook his head, "The Saint Heir is the successor to the Palace Master of the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace, the future Palace Master, commanding all nine divisions of the entire Heavenly Vault Divine Palace!"
"If you beco the Saint Heir, everything in this Heavenly Vault Divine Palace will be yours in the future!"
"What? Everything will be mine?"
Lin Feng was startled, a look of disbelief on his face.
"That’s right! Everything will be yours!"
The elder nodded with a smile, "So, what do you say? If you are willing to beco the Saint Heir of the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace, to tirelessly strive for the revival of the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace and for the salvation of the Heavenly Vault Continent, then all of this will be yours!"
The elder’s eyes shone brightly, quietly waiting for Lin Feng’s reply, knowing that Lin Feng wouldn’t refuse, nor could anyone resist such a temptation.
Lin Feng was stunned, becoming a Saint Heir to revive the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace seed reasonable, but why work tirelessly for the salvation of the Heavenly Vault Continent? What’s wrong with the Heavenly Vault Continent, and what salvation is needed?
However, Lin Feng didn’t concern himself with these thoughts any longer. The Heavenly Vault Divine Palace had a legacy from the ancient era, with countless treasures, and by becoming the Saint Heir, he could possess everything.
Unless he was a fool, he wouldn’t refuse. As for the salvation of the Heavenly Vault Continent! That was a matter for the future; he would cross that bridge when he ca to it!
"I am willing!" Lin Feng agreed without a hint of hesitation.
"Hahahaha!! Good! Good!"
The elder laughed loudly a few tis and said: "Follow !"
As soon as the elder finished speaking, with a wave of his hand, including two puppets, he and Lin Feng vanished instantly from the stone chamber.
Lin Feng felt the space shift, and in the next mont, he found himself in a spacious hall.
His eyes swept across; there were dozens of statues in the hall, and nothing else besides.
These dozens of statues were magnificently tall, each one towering over five zhang high, with expressions of majesty, aloofness, or tyranny.
Though they were just statues, they clearly represented individuals who must have been extrely powerful during their lifetis.
"These are the statues of the historical Palace Masters of the Heavenly Vault Divine Palace!"
The white-haired elder and two puppets stood beside Lin Feng, looking at the statues with a look of reverence.
