172- Martial Art Symbol Inheritance 1

“Knowing that death was approaching, I decided to seal myself in this cave and spend the rest of the remaining time I had here.”

“But I could not forget all the sacrifices done by my clan members.”

“I could not forget the massacre of my clansmen.”

“My hatred towards the killers who were the cause for all these was making my blood boil.”

“I was full unwillingness, as I was unable to exact revenge and revitalize clan and fulfill ancestor’s hope.”

“I could still remember how the clan members sacrificed their lives for the sake of holding back the enemies and let other clansmen escape.”

“I was unwilling to die like this.”

“I am not reconciled. I am not reconciled with how the heavens and fate have played tricks on my clan.”

The words that followed described how unwilling the person was when she died.

“So, before I die, I decided to take some drastic measures.”

“I swore that even after my death I must make the enemies that destroyed my clan pay a heavy price for their actions.”

“I decided to sacrifice my soul and form a curse restriction on the important restrictions given by the ancestor.”

“So, whoever wants to receive the important inheritance that my ancestor used to reach the peak of his power and for which my clan was massacred, must share my revenge and destroy the power which destroyed my clan.”

“To the person reading this, since you were able to find this cave and find my grave and read this. It means that you are the fated one.”

“So, I am giving you two choices.”

“The first choice, you can take all the things in this cave except for the main inheritance and get out of the cave.”

“There are many Red Grade and Orange grade weapons and artifacts in here, there are also few cultivation methods and fighting techniques belonging to Red and Orange grade. All of this is yours.”

“The second choice, you can accept everything including the inheritance left by my ancestor, all you have to do is share my revenge.”

“So, before you make your choice, let me tell you the things you can get after making the second choice and the enemy you need to face. So, that you can think thrice before you make your choice.”

“The inheritance that my ancestor gave numbers up to 2.”

“First inheritance is a type of Spiritual Essence Refining method. And the Second inheritance is the ‘Martial Art Symbol’ that ancestor condensed by sacrificing his soul.”

“Spiritual Essence Refining method is a type of method through which one can make their spiritual essence purer and thicker, such that his combat power will soar by an unimaginable degree.”

“And the ‘Martial Art Symbol’ is the most special.”

“According to the information that ancestor passed me, from it, one can easily learn an Indigo grade martial art technique and will also receive the ‘Martial Art Symbol’ tattoo of that martial art.”

“So, these are the things that you will get if you make the second choice. Now, coming to the part where you need to pay the price for this choice.”

“The enemies who destroyed my clan are the Frozen Palace and the Dark Blood Cult. These two superpowers that could shake the Pagero continent jointly took part in the massacre of my clan.”

“So, if you think you can accept this price then spill some of your blood on this wall and enter the passage that will appear.”

“Oh, if you think you can forcibly steal the main inheritance, then take note that I have already taken precautions against this.”

When everyone in the cave read till here, their expressions grew solemn.

They clearly understood that if they want to obtain the main inheritance, then they will have to pay a price.

And this price is not a small sum. It could very well be considered a suicide mission.

June has a pretty high position in the Lamia tribe. And although she does not possess much intelligence of the human world, it doesn’t mean that she is not aware of the top powers of the human race.

She knows that both the Frozen Palace and Dark Blood Cult possess enough power to contend against the Royal families of the Dark forest.

So, when she knew that if she wants the inheritance then she needs to face such behemoths, her body trembled with fear.

Although, this inheritance can make her tribe stronger, but she doesn’t possess the qualification or power to pay the price.

So, she can only sigh and take the remaining things in here.

Even though she felt regretful, she does not dare to think more about accepting the second choice. So, she decided to make the first choice.

As for Armelia, she never heard about the Frozen palace or the Dark blood cult, so she started looking at June for an answer.

And when she understood what these two powers were, Armelia’s eyes were filled with disbelief and fear.

It was clear that she too understood how powerful these two organizations were and for them to be considered being equal to the Royal families of the Dark Forest, she clearly understood their strength. She spent her whole life in the Dark Forest, so she is well aware of how powerful the 5 Royal families were. So, it's no wonder that she was shocked and scared.

Taking a deep breath and then exhaling, June said with a regretful tone,

“Looks, like we do not possess any fate with the main inheritance. So, let's be happy with what we got and forget that we ever got into this cave.”

Hearing this, Armelia also nodded, and then she looked at Orochi who was lost in deep thoughts.

She approached him and said in a soft tone,

“Orochi, don’t think too much about it. We cannot obtain the main inheritance as we do not possess the power to offend such superpowers.”

When Orochi heard Armelia’s words, he simply chuckled and replied,

“I know. But you must remember that in this world, if you want to gain something, then you must also be prepared to lose something.”

“Right now, I can only follow this rule.”

“But one day, I will become so strong that I will be able to defend and protect things that I hold dear to my heart and will not lose them. So, I will only gain and never lose.”

“For me to gain that type of strength, I must take any measure or step necessary to increases my strength.”

“Only then, I can protect yours and my life.”
