Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 369 The Inheritance of a Powerful Figure, Corpses Lie in a Thatched Hut
They lure others with the promise of a mysterious and powerful figure's legacy, and then use a small world as a framework.

To put it bluntly, if such a group of people really push their way in, and the person behind the scenes has that idea, a large-scale bloodshed is inevitable.

Unless someone can turn the tide, at least half of the people here will be left behind. Even if the other half survive, they will be severely injured and leave their blood in the small world.

Leaving blood behind the scenes is, in fact, enough for those behind the scenes to have achieved their goal.

However, now that Qi Hao has arrived, will the person behind the scenes still be able to succeed so easily?

"My original intention was to make you submit willingly, but since you're like an untamed wild beast, I'll give it a try!"

Qi Hao remained calm as he gazed at the faintly visible small world in the distance.

The prodigy who had asked the question looked rather grim when he saw that no one responded. He was about to get angry when his companion pulled him back.

"Why are you stopping me? Didn't you see how arrogant that person was? Even if I'm not the Holy Son of Yao Guang from the Ji family, I'm still a well-known prodigy in the Northern Region. How dare he ignore me like this?"

The prodigy was very dissatisfied and muttered something, wanting to cause trouble.

"Brother, are you out of your mind? Open your eyes and look at who's with that guy!" His friend's expression changed drastically, and he quickly said.

The prodigy paused for a moment upon hearing this, then looked over seriously.

He shouldn't have looked, because what he saw almost scared the soul out of him.

"Tu Fei... Li Heishui... Jiang Huai Ren... those few bandits, so who is that!"

The self-proclaimed prodigy turned green with rage.

If a young man could gather a group of petty bandits together, then his identity is self-evident.

He was extremely glad he hadn't spoken up; otherwise, whether he would be alive now was uncertain.

Just as he looked at the group of people, the bandits also turned their heads to look at him.

With a malicious smile on his face, Tu Tian reached out and lightly drew a line across his own neck, making a threatening gesture.

The proud man in the distance turned even greener.

Recalling the deeds of those petty bandits, he immediately turned and left without looking back.

Although he was considered a minor prodigy in the Northern Region, he was only minorly famous and far inferior to these bandits.

Let alone the legendary powerhouse Qi Hao, even just one of these small-time bandits would be someone he couldn't handle.

"Brother, go and pursue the legacy of the mysterious expert. I'm leaving now!" The prodigy who had just spoken left without looking back.

He worried that staying here would incur the wrath of those petty bandits, and that he might die an unjust death, so he decisively left.

"You..." His good brother originally wanted to persuade this person to stay, but seeing that the bandits were also smiling at him, he was so frightened that he left without looking back.

Seeing the two men leave without looking back, the group of bandits exchanged glances and burst into laughter.

"Huh? What are you doing?" Qi Hao noticed the bandits' unusual behavior and turned around to ask.

The bandits didn't hide anything and told Qi Hao what had just happened.

"I see, then you did manage to save someone." Qi Hao chuckled.

He hadn't expected that before he could even make a move, these bandits would take the initiative and save two people.

Although the process was a little different from what he had expected, at least in terms of the result, the two people successfully escaped and did not fall into the trap.

The little bandit grinned foolishly upon hearing this.

They assumed Qi Hao meant that after scaring those two away, they wouldn't have to participate in the battles among the prodigies anymore, thus saving their lives in this way, and didn't think too much about it.

In fact, not only them, but many people present did not think too much about it. They came here for the inheritance of the mysterious powerful figure, and seeing this faintly visible small world strengthened their resolve to some extent.

As everyone knows, creating a small world in the void requires a very high level of cultivation; at the very least, only ancient sages could do it.

Moreover, there are many talented individuals who have come here, including not only those famous talents from the Eastern Wilderness and Northern Region, but also Qi Hao, a talented individual with an extraordinary background.

Seeing Qi Hao made them even more convinced that nothing unexpected would happen.

After all, Qi Hao's status and position are what they are, and there is an ancient sage behind him. The fact that Qi Hao is here proves that there must be a reason that attracted him here. Moreover, to a certain extent, it also shows that the ancient sage felt that there was nothing unexpected about Qi Hao's appearance here.

Qi Hao's appearance seemed to be a reassurance, putting many people present at ease.

Qi Hao naturally sensed what those people were thinking, but he just smiled arrogantly and said nothing.

The small world was barely visible and had not truly opened. Even though it was surrounded by people, no one could do anything about it.

According to some prodigies and powerful figures, to force one's way in, one would need at least the strength to surpass the Dao-Slaying King.

Currently, there is only one person in the entire Eastern Wilderness who is suspected of surpassing the strength of a Dao-Slaying King, but that person happens to be away from the Eastern Wilderness right now—

Yes, the White-Clad God King is not in the Eastern Wilderness at the moment. He has left the Eastern Wilderness with Fairy Caiyun and gone to other regions to find his old friends and see how many of them are still alive after thousands of years.

After all, it's not appropriate to only invite younger relatives to such a big event as a wedding.

Therefore, in the current Eastern Wilderness and Northern Region, the strongest people who are out in the open are the aging king of the Ji family and the king of the Jiang family.

But the two of them came to see it, and in the end they just shook their heads and left, claiming that they couldn't open this little world.

Moreover, not only could they not open this small world, they couldn't even enter it.

This small world can only be entered by cultivators below the Dragon Transformation Realm. Even if others want to enter, they must suppress their cultivation level to the Dragon Transformation Realm. However, for these powerful individuals, suppressing their cultivation level is tantamount to taking risks, which they have no reason to do.

On the contrary, those prodigies briefly ended their seclusion, wanting to seek the inheritance of the mysterious powerhouse.

A group of people were waiting in the small world, and as time passed, more and more people arrived. Some even came from other regions specifically to the Northern Wilderness of the Eastern Wilderness, hoping to obtain the inheritance of a mysterious powerhouse. Among them were some older generation powerhouses who had already broken through to the Dragon Transformation Realm or even the Sendai Realm. Tempted by the promise of the mysterious powerhouse's inheritance, they also came.

A few days later, the faintly visible little world finally began to fluctuate. The little world, which was originally both real and illusory, finally began to take on a more solid appearance.

The surrounding prodigies were incredibly excited, because this meant that the inheritance of a powerful figure here might be about to appear.

Sure enough, seven days later, a streak of light flew out from the small world.

It's a king-level weapon!
Seeing this, the surrounding prodigies took a deep breath, their eyes filled with excitement and eagerness.

Even before the Land of Inheritance has been opened, a kingly weapon has already appeared. If the Land of Inheritance is fully opened, then even a holy weapon may not be a dream.

Faced with this kingly weapon, a group of people fought over it. Even the most talented and powerful individuals were filled with excitement as they vied for this item.

Ji Family Divine Body walked through the void, his surroundings somewhat blurred. This was a manifestation of his constant movement through the void. Compared to before, his Great Void Technique was now more profound, and each move he made could repel many powerful figures around him.

The Jiang family's divine body stood behind Jiang Yifei without making a move; it was Jiang Yifei who did all the fighting from beginning to end.

The Holy Son of Yaoguang was also taking action to eliminate the powerful figures around him, and it seemed that his purpose was also to seize that king's weapon.

The younger generation of prodigies were all striving to obtain the king's weapon, but the older generation of powerful figures were nowhere to be seen. In the distance, a powerful figure from the crowd made no attempt to conceal his aura, directly reaching out and snatching the king's weapon right before everyone's eyes.

"Hahaha, juniors, stop arguing. With your cultivation levels, even if you get this item, it won't help. I'll hold this kingly weapon for you!"

The powerful figure laughed loudly and immediately pocketed the King's Weapon.

The faces of the group of prodigies in the crowd were all very unpleasant.

"Senior, aren't you going a bit too far?" someone said, their voice filled with dissatisfaction.

These things should have belonged to the younger generation, but now they were snatched away by a powerful figure, so they were naturally dissatisfied.

"Hehe, strength is paramount. This item doesn't have anyone's name on it. Does that mean you're allowed to snatch it but I'm not allowed to fight for it?" the powerful figure said with a laugh.

"Besides, I don't plan to enter the Land of Inheritance to join the fun, so the things inside are still yours. It's just that this item is destined for me." After snatching the King's weapon, the powerful figure did not linger and turned to leave.

He knew that the reason he was able to snatch this king's weapon was not because of his strong foundation, but simply because his current realm crushed these geniuses. If he were to fight against them at the same realm, he would suffer a great loss. Therefore, he decisively left without any intention of entering the inheritance land to seize those things.

The group of prodigies around them looked rather grim upon seeing this, but there was nothing they could do.

If that powerful being is determined to leave, no one present can stop him.

Fortunately, the appearance of the King's Weapon does not signify the end of the Land of Inheritance, but rather its beginning.

The powerful figure who left took away a king-level weapon, and he probably has no regrets. But those who remain have the opportunity to compete for more opportunities.

With the appearance of a king-level weapon, more and more light appeared, and the Land of Inheritance seemed to be a treasure trove with its doors opened, the radiant light within attracting everyone's attention.

Someone rushed in first and captured a ray of light. When the light dissipated, the others could clearly see that it was a bamboo scroll.

Although no one has seen the contents of the bamboo slips yet, given the precedent set by the original, everyone has preconceived notions and believes that this is the legacy of some ancient sage.

So a group of people rushed in, heading straight for the beams of light in the small world, trying to seize the opportunities within.

The Ji family's divine body, Jiang Yifei of the Jiang family, the Yao Guang Saintess and the Zi Fu Saintess, as well as Dao Yi Saint Son and others rushed in, with Yao Guang Saint Son rushing in even faster.

A group of bandits stared at the dazzling light inside, their hearts pounding with excitement, but none of them made a move. They looked at Qi Hao beside them, waiting for their leader's instructions.

"Let's go in. The actors have already entered. Let's go in and watch the show while they perform!" Qi Hao chuckled, actively suppressing his cultivation level to the peak of the Four Extremes Secret Realm, and led a group of bandits into the small world.

Qi Hao couldn't help but smile as soon as he entered.

It seems that the Holy Son of Yaoguang paid a great price for this plan, as this small world is actually filled with an ancient aura.

Clearly, this is not a small world that was temporarily put together to make up the numbers, but a world that has been passed down from a very distant era, and the time it has experienced is at least 50,000 years.

After entering this small world, Qi Hao looked at the dazzling lights before him and casually snatched one of them from a prodigy.

The prodigy was initially furious, but when he turned around and saw that it was Qi Hao, his eyes immediately cleared up, and he left without looking back to try his luck at other opportunities.

Qi Hao chuckled. These geniuses were all so sensible, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

In his hand, the light lay peacefully. Before the light had even faded, Qi Hao could already see what was inside.

It is half a sealed fruit, well preserved, and still full of vitality even after many tens of thousands of years.

For cultivators in the Four Extremes Secret Realm and the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm, half a fruit could barely be considered a treasure, but for Qi Hao, it was just average.

He casually tossed the half-fruit to Li Heishui, who was standing nearby.

Li Heishui carefully took the fruit and hid it away like a treasure.

Qi Hao raised his head and looked into the depths of the small world.

There stood a thatched hut, and the most famous geniuses of the Northern Wilderness were already rushing towards it. The Holy Son of Yaoguang, the Divine Body of the Ji Family, and the Holy Maiden of Yaochi were leading the way, ahead of the other geniuses.

The other prodigies followed closely behind, eager to catch a glimpse of the ultimate inheritance.

Even from a distance, Qi Hao could see the scene inside the thatched hut. There, an old man, withered and lifeless like a corpse, lay on the bank, seemingly devoid of all life. But when the prodigies rushed over, the old man slowly began to move.

"Tsk tsk tsk, if I hadn't come, it really would have been a random massacre. But I came..." Qi Hao smiled as he looked at the group of people in front of him.

He took a step forward, his figure disappearing into the void, revealing himself to be none other than the Ji family's Void Scripture.

The next moment, when he reappeared, he was already ahead of everyone else, standing in front of the thatched hut.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, Qi Hao pulled out something.
