I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 1570 - 1574: Whether You Want to Give It or Not, You Have to Give
"A trivial formation? Young man, did you actually call my formation a trivial one? Do you know how many people paid a huge price back then just to have me set up a formation at the entrance of my Magic Academy?"
In those days, Ainos was not only famous for his cultivation in magic, but also renowned for his prowess in magical formations. Even in that era, magicians capable of arranging level seven formations were rare, and this was one of his greatest prides.
Now being ridiculed by a youngster, how could he swallow this insult?
"Well, they certainly haven't seen much of the world," Zhang Menglong laughed, "Does that even qualify as a formation? I could break it in minutes!"
Ainos' remnant soul, seemingly eager to prove this point, immediately began to sense the formations he had left on those Warcafts, which not only restricted them but also served as a monitoring function.
But soon he discovered that, except for those very low-level Warcafts, all the formations on the high-level Warcafts had already disappeared; he couldn't sense any of them!
"Impossible, how come all of them are gone?" His face was filled with disbelief.
Even with his cultivation in formations, it would take a long time to break the formations on all of those Warcafts.
This space had only been open for how long? At most three months, right? He actually broke all the magical arrays on the high-level Warcafts within three months? Unless he's an eighth-grade array master!
But according to the information he currently possessed, there simply wasn't an eighth-grade array master among humans now!
"Do you believe it now?" Zhang Menglong chuckled, "We desire your legacy as a favor to you, out of respect for you, I advise you not to be ungrateful!"
Standing within the formation, Raditz was already utterly dumbfounded.
Of course, he was clear about his own capabilities. In some sense, he was indeed a genius, but standing before Ainos, he naturally didn't have that confidence; people like Ainos probably met more geniuses than Raditz had met people.
If he were to find a successor, it must be a prodigy among prodigies.
Ainos disdainfully looked down on him, and Raditz was mentally prepared for that. He thought it through; even if he failed, he had already gained numerous benefits this time.
The things brought by those Warcafts, Zhang Menglong split half of them with him, and these alone were enough for the Hertz Family to rise, solidifying his own position within the family as well.
Who knew Zhang Menglong was truly bold, his attitude was ten times more arrogant than Ainos'!
It was the first time he saw someone asking for a legacy with such a charitable attitude!
Suddenly, Ainos recalled something, and a spiritual sense immediately enveloped Zhang Menglong.
Moments later, he suddenly revealed a delighted expression.
"All the shackles of Life Levels have been unlocked, the most perfect existence!"
"This brain's domain breadth, this magical talent... actually possesses perfect affinity with all elements!"
"What is this thing? A special flame? If this flame is used for Fire Magic, it would surely be world-destroying."
"And this body strength, it's even stronger than those who practiced Body Refinement in my times."
"This is definitely a once-in-a-billion-years magical genius!"
Ainos' expression when looking at Zhang Menglong instantly became as if he was seeing a beauty.
"Young man, are you willing to become my successor, Ainos?" Ainos asked expectantly, for only such a person was worthy to be his heir.
"Sorry, old man, but you might not be worthy," Zhang Menglong directly and cleanly refused.
"You actually refused me, Ainos?" Ainos said in disbelief, "Do you know what you are refusing? Although your talent in arrays might be hefty, my magical cultivation is something you can never match!"
"Sorry, I know five hundred Forbidden Curses, how many do you know?"
"I..."
"I can arrange level nine formations, can you manage that?"
"This..."
"I possess Divine Artifacts, do you have any?"
Zhang Menglong suddenly, with wicked amusement, took out two items.
A chisel, and a hammer.
The moment Ainos saw them, his face turned pale with fright.
Even in death, he couldn't forget that bird man wielding this pair of celestial chisels, which directly sent him to the afterlife with one blow.
And he could feel that this pair of weapons wasn't just for show, the sensation was identical to that time!
"What's your relationship with that bird man?"
"Why do you care what my relationship is with him?" Zhang Menglong said, "I'm just telling you that you have nothing to teach me, hence you're not worthy. If you call me teacher, I might consider making you my registered disciple, what do you think?"
"Young man, don't be so arrogant, even though I am now just a remnant soul, you can't possibly take away my legacy. As long as I don't wish to give it out, no one can ever obtain it."
"I don't doubt that," Zhang Menglong nodded.
That pillar of light was a special magical power that could only be undone by the spellcaster themselves, unless a level nine perfect being arrived, seizing those things was impossible.
But Zhang Menglong had another way.
"I suppose you left this Heritage Space to find someone to inherit your skills?"
"Why are you asking this?" Ainos turned extremely wary,
This was indeed Ainos' original intention.
He, once formidable, could not be forgotten by the times, so after being severely injured, he left this space to pass on his skills.
So that in the future when someone asks about it, they would know that this prodigy was Ainos' successor, and he would never be forgotten.
"If you don't pass the legacy to my friend, in the future no one will want it!" Zhang Menglong said, "I've pretty much emptied this place already, and no one will come here again, leaving you to wait for your so-called successor alone."
"Oh, by the way," Zhang Menglong added, "just in case, I'll seal this heritage space, so if my friend can't have it, neither can anyone else. Today this legacy is a must-have!"
"Bravo!" Raditz felt an overwhelming urge to applaud, thinking if you're so good at talking, say a bit more, please?
"You..."
Ainos indeed realized Zhang Menglong used the broken formations as a bargain. Except for this core legacy, almost all treasures in the space were moved by him.
When those Warcafts leave, others will know there's nothing valuable left, and naturally, no one will come.
And he doesn't doubt Zhang Menglong can seal the formation.
After thinking carefully, he really had no other choice!
...
"Sigh..."
Ainos let out a long sigh.
He thought of a thousand possibilities, yet not a single one included being forced to hand his legacy over to someone he was unwilling to give it to. Is there anything more frustrating in the world?
"Young man, come here," Ainos could only choose to compromise, besides handing the legacy to Raditz, he had no other choice today.
