Chapter 816: Intermediate Level Inheritance
~DING~
The system’s alarm could be heard going off in Lin Wu’s ears as he was roused from his state.
“Huh?” Lin Wu groaned lightly.
~YAWN~
‘Did I fall asleep?’ Lin Wu wondered.
He had been cultivating all this time and was in a deep state of it. It wasn’t usual for him to fall asleep either, as his focused cultivation state was similar to sleep a lot. Lin Wu knew that there was a possibility of this happening, thus he had gotten the system to keep an alarm ready for him.
Though in addition to the alarm, there were other reminders set up in the system too. It was to awaken Lin Wu, if anything in the list happened.
And it was exactly one of those reminders for which the system had awakened him. Lin Wu looked at the window that was flashing in front of him.
~DING~
——
REMINDER: Shirong has successful completed the Taiji Celestial’s Trials!
——
“He’s already completed them?” Lin Wu was surprised and wondered just how much time it had been.
Five Months had now passed since Lin Wu had let Shirong take the trials and two months had passed since Kai Li had embarked from the Millennium forest with the beasts. Lin Wu scrolled through all the updates the system prepared for him, like reading a newspaper in the morning.
“He’s getting the inheritance now… seems like he qualified for the intermediate level inheritance right away.” Lin Wu saw the system’s notifications.
Lin Wu had originally thought that Shirong might be able to get the top level inheritance right away, but it turned out to be different from that.
‘If even Shirong can’t obtain it, then just how strong would one have to be and what level of score would the trials need to reward them with the top level inheritance?’ Lin Wu wondered.
He himself had obtained the inheritance due to his unique situation and the help of the system. By now Lin Wu was sure that Shirong was a great genius even when compared to those of higher worlds.
And if even a man like that couldn’t get top-level inheritance, then Lin Wu without his luck would have never gotten it either. In fact, there was a great chance he might not have even been able to get the lowest level inheritance.
~shua~
A monitor window opened up in front of Lin Wu, showing Shirong in it. The man was currently sitting in one of the trial rooms and was covered with sweat. His expression was that of pain and his eyes were tightly shut.
Ten minutes passed like this before Shirong finally completed the entire process.

SUBJECT DATA: Updated
SUBJECT: Ji Shirong
CULTIVATION BASE: Adult Soul Stage of the Nascent soul realm
CULTIVATION TECHNIQUE: 1. Immortal Sky Shaker art (Lightning Attribute spirit qi adept)
2. Taiji Inversion Cycle Refinement Technique (Taiji Celestial’s Intermediate level inheritance)
——
“So this is the second level of it huh…” Lin Wu read about the cultivation technique.
Now he knew of all the levels of the Taiji Celestial’s cultivation techniques.
Taiji Refinement scripture…
Taiji Inversion Cycle Refinement Technique…
Taiji Dual Unity Scripture…
Such were the three levels of the inheritance, and each contained different Qi skills. Though the higher leveled ones didn’t give the lowers leveled Qi skills right away, and one needed to comprehend them.
When Wang Xiong had obtained the first level: Taiji Refinement scripture, he had also gained the Qi skill unity returning fist.
And when Lin Wu had obtained the third level: Taiji Dual Unity Scripture, he had obtained the Unity Avatar Technique.
‘What Qi skill did Shirong get from the start of this?’ Lin Wu wondered.
Lin Wu still had to wait for Shirong to finish the entire process to know it. The cultivation technique was the first one to be imparted, and then the information about the Taiji Celestial, as well as a certain understanding of the cultivation and insights, were passed.
The Qi skill was the last thing to be imparted to the cultivator. Lin Wu ended up waiting for an entire hour before the process was finally over.

SUBJECT DATA: Updated
SUBJECT: Ji Shirong
CULTIVATION BASE: Adult Soul Stage of the Nascent soul realm
QI SKILLS: 1. Immortal Sky Shaker Art skill set
2. Cycle Inverting Seal
——
“The Cycle Inverting Seal? What is this?” Lin Wu asked the system.
~DING~
——
QI SKILL: Cycle Inverting Seal
INFO: The Cycle Inverting Seal allows the user to create mystical seals that can reverse anything as long as the user’s power is equivalent or above that of the being it is used on. It can reverse blood flow, invert the Qi circuits and even flip the elements!
——
Reading the information of the Qi skill, Lin Wu couldn’t help but feel amazed.
“This is way better than the Unity Returning Fist… it’s literally an exponential upgrade.” Lin Wu said to himself.
Though this also allowed him to realize just how strong the Unity Avatar technique was too.
After all, even if the Cycle Inverting Seal was a very strong Qi skill, it was at most an offensive skill and could only be used on those equal or weaker than oneself. But the Unity Avatar Technique was way beyond it.
Not only did it give one an avatar similar to oneself that could learn other skills and techniques, it would also give one a way a great trump card. After all, with an avatar hidden away, if one died, they could always switch to it and continue living on.
There were many experts in the world who nurtured their decedents so that they had a backup plan to survive in case their original bodies died. They could use their Nascent soul and takeover the body of their descendants that would have the same bloodline and perhaps even better constitution.
But all this took a lot of time, effort and nurturing to do so. Not to mention the descendants might resist too.
But the Unity Avatar Technique had no such problems at all!
