This stone, he moved it here?!
Ji Yuan raised his hand and instantly cast the Water Arrow Technique.
The water-blue arrow pierced the stone and then suddenly exploded.
"Boom——"
A Water Shield flickered in front of Ji Yuan, blocking the flying debris for him.
There was nothing inside the stone, which made sense. No matter how skilled Qiu Qianhai was, he couldn’t hide sothing inside a rock.
So could it be buried under the stone?
Ji Yuan thought for a mont and then called out the Hundred Fish Shield, using it directly to dig. After not digging too much, he unearthed a tightly locked iron box!
Damn, there really is sothing!
Ji Yuan raised his hand to grab the iron box and then used the Artifact Manipulation Technique to fill the hole back in.
The iron box wasn’t large, probably about the size of two palms.
There was a line of small characters engraved on it.
"The one who opens this box is my grandson."
Qiu Qianhai, you bastard... Ji Yuan didn’t open it there but instead rode the Flying Boat again, the Thunder Falcon Boat transforming into a purple light, heading straight towards Zengtou City.
A while later.
Ji Yuan only opened the iron box once he was ho.
The box was empty, containing only a letter inside. It seed like only Qiu Qianhai would do sothing like this. Ji Yuan opened it.
Just as expected.
"Lao Ji, you’re probably the only one who could find this letter, right?
If you’ve found this letter, you’ve probably also received the shell I left behind, which shows the person I hired back then was sowhat reliable. That bastard took twenty Spirit Stones from , but at least he did sothing useful.
However... I actually hope you wouldn’t see this letter because if you can see this letter, it ans I’ve probably had an accident, not showing up in two years.
Maybe I’m dead, or maybe trapped sowhere?
Or perhaps I’m walking halfway, and a supre being suddenly descended from the sky, took a fancy to at first glance, and insisted on taking as a disciple. I had no choice but to reluctantly agree.
But are you really Lao Ji?
If not... but soone with a connection found this letter, then congratulations, lucky one, because this letter contains an opportunity, an opportunity for the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
Haha, Lao Ji, don’t bla . Who told us we don’t even have this bit of tacit understanding."
Ji Yuan looked at the content of the letter, feeling that Qiu Qianhai was in relatively good condition when he wrote it, given the lighthearted tone.
Just the opportunity... still an opportunity for the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
Damn, could there be sothing this good?
Looking further down, Ji Yuan understood why Qiu Qianhai’s tone was so lighthearted.
"Lao Ji... I’m just going to assu it’s you who saw this letter. If soone else sees it, I can’t do much about it.
Lao Ji, you’re probably curious when I wrote this letter.
Heh, actually, it was just after we parted ways. Yes, right after we separated at Jingde Square, I ca to Qiuyu Island. It’s night now, and damn, the moonlight is so bright."
This ti Ji Yuan didn’t stop but read through it in one go.
"You’re probably very curious about the opportunity I left for you, right? An opportunity for the Foundation Establishnt Stage, which you certainly dream of. I won’t keep you in suspense and will tell you directly.
This opportunity was left by my grandfather to my father. My father didn’t have the strength to retrieve it, so he left it to , and I can’t retrieve it either, so I can only rely on you.
The technique.
It’s a body technique, which is extrely rare among techniques, a Tier Two one. Once you master it, you can be unrivaled in speed within the Foundation Establishnt Stage. How about it? Is this opportunity big enough?
The exact location is also in this Cloud Rain Marsh, but it’s situated deep within, where Tier Two Demon Beasts are active. I’ve also mapped out the location for you.
[Map]
Be sure to rember the location because it’s among a group of small islands shrouded in heavy fog all year round, making it easy to get lost. Back in the days, my grandfather was a famous Adventurer King in Zengtou City; only he could find this place.
But!
I advise you not to rush.
Do you know why my grandfather couldn’t seize this opportunity, and neither could my father?
Because there’s a Tier Two Demon Beast on that island, a poison-spitting toad.
My grandfather speculated that it was left by a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator back then. He only sneaked onto the island to take a peek when the beast was battling other beasts, hoping for so Treasures of Heaven and Earth, only to find a book of techniques. Unfortunately, he didn’t have ti to transcribe it. What a pity.
So if you don’t have the ability to escape from the hands of a Tier Two Demon Beast, don’t go on an adventure.
Alright, that’s the opportunity.
I’m gone... Sigh, when writing these three words, I’m not even sure what I feel.
It’s like writing a will for myself?
No, it’s not like that; this is a will.
Since I’m gone, I don’t know if it was the Qin Family who killed , but if you want to avenge , don’t rush. There’s no need to avenge the likes of Blind Qin.
Killing him now would be a relief to him.
You’re still young, just outlive him. As long as you don’t die before he does, I would consider it as avenging , haha.
So don’t be reckless. Don’t sacrifice yourself for a dead man like .
The likes of the Qin Family, you can take care of them after you reach the Peak of Qi Refining or after you establish your Foundation, how about it? Isn’t that a good idea?
Lao Ji... there’s one more thing, although I’m gone, unless you see my corpse, it doesn’t really an I’m dead.
Because..."
After this, there was a long line of text that was completely crossed out with ink, and Ji Yuan couldn’t see what was written. But just when he thought Qiu Qianhai was going to play the riddler, he unexpectedly told everything afterward.
"Forget it. I won’t dwell on it; I’ll tell you everything.
Do you rember the finger bone I used while mining? That finger bone was actually passed down from my grandfather.
According to my grandfather, the finger bone was snapped off from a skeleton of a great figure, hiding a big secret. Initially, I didn’t believe it because elders love to amuse children.
But until one night, I had a dream where soone taught that Demon Skill...
The next day when I woke up, the finger bone, originally placed in my Storage Bag, mysteriously appeared on my chest. That made think my grandfather might have been telling the truth.
So let have a little hope, maybe I’m not dead, maybe I really obtained so opportunity?
Right."
At this point, the letter left a long stretch of blank space.
Finally, Qiu Qianhai wrote three more sentences at the end of the letter.
"When I was a child, my mother often told Cloud Rain Marsh is so vast that she never walked out of it in her lifeti."
"But I feel Cloud Rain Marsh is small, Lao Ji, our path shouldn’t be this narrow."
"Lao Ji, I really, really don’t want to die..."
