Ji Fu paused for a moment, then slowly said, "So the Marquis also thought of this question!"
Lü Chang chuckled and said, "Gu Zhan possesses the Method of Divine Sight that breaks the limits of Martial Arts, which no one in the world would doubt. However, whether the Method of Divine Sight was invented by him—there are too many questionable points upon careful consideration. I am more inclined to believe he received a terrifying inheritance.
Three thousand years ago, the Martial Saint spent his entire life, expending countless human and material resources, to create Martial Arts. Over a thousand years ago, the Martial Ancestor sought to integrate Martial Arts, almost becoming an enemy of the world, after reading through all the world’s texts to pass down the Great Success of Martial Arts to this day.
And over these thousands of years, countless extraordinary talents and noble families, large sects, have exhausted everything to try and pave another path—they all wished to break the limits of Martial Arts, but no one succeeded.
Gu Zhan, a person of such low origin, without any background or support, and without a famous teacher’s guidance, relied entirely on his own haphazard practice. It’s already considered lucky he didn’t end up ruining himself, yet he reached such an unimaginable height—that’s quite mysterious and unreasonable."
Ji Fu nodded and said, "That’s correct, I too had this doubt, so I specifically went to investigate Gu Zhan’s life. Ever since he woke up from that coma after sustaining heavy injuries in the fourth year of Qingli, he’s been shrouded in extreme mystery.
Gu Zhan used to be a talentless waste in Martial Arts for over a decade, and his personality was indecisive, not daring to kill even a chicken. However, overnight, his cultivation rapidly advanced across several realms, turning into a ruthless person who wouldn’t blink at killing. Since then, he would confront any challenges like a God of Slaughter, progressing at an astonishing pace, with his personality becoming increasingly domineering.
Even stranger is that no one has ever seen Gu Zhan undergo a breakthrough—it’s as if he went from being someone who didn’t understand Martial Arts to the current world’s number one in Martial Arts, yet there’s never been a breakthrough. His cultivation realm seemed to naturally emerge,
possibly being a Grandmaster one day, and inexplicably becoming a Great Grandmaster two days later. This kind of situation occurred frequently in his few short years of emergence, as if his cultivation is like a powerful cultivator regaining strength step by step."
Lü Chang continued the conversation and said, "Not to hide from Lord, when I obtained this investigative intelligence, I had to confirm repeatedly, hardly able to believe it, and there’s another point even more bizarre—did you happen to notice it?"
"What?" Ji Fu asked.
Lü Chang slowly said, "Gu Zhan can practice Martial Arts indiscriminately, even when Martial Arts are mutually conflicting; he can cultivate them simultaneously. Moreover, what’s more terrifying is that he seems to be able to master any Martial Arts at a whim, as if there are no bottlenecks, and similarly, no signs of breakthrough—he just inexplicably masters them! If his cultivation is recovering, then surely the Martial Arts and Divine Techniques wouldn’t be the same, right?"
Ji Fu nodded and said, "I noticed this as well. People only know Gu Zhan now possesses the Method of Divine Sight that breaks Martial Arts limits, craving it intensely, but they overlook the strange inheritance he has—this is the true treasure mountain!
An inheritance that allows one to master any Martial Arts, transforming a person with no Martial Arts talent into a genius with no bottlenecks and no limits—this inheritance is truly terrifying; it’s undoubtedly an unparalleled treasure."
Lü Chang narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Yet, I can’t imagine what kind of inheritance could be so terrifying?"
Ji Fu whispered, "Initially, I also doubted, even suspected that Gu Zhan might have cultivated some Demon Skill because he enjoys killing. For a long time, I doubted whether the Demon Skill he cultivated was to enhance his cultivation through killing and blood.
But later, I discovered that along his path, he cultivated several cultivation techniques—all of them were Righteous Dao Cultivation Methods. His love for killing should simply be due to his personality: arrogant and domineering.
Conversely, his personality also reflects that he should have received an impressive inheritance; otherwise, how could he dare to be so arrogant and domineering, opposing everyone? He likely understands the might of that inheritance, hence his fearlessness!"
Lü Chang smiled slightly and said, "So, does the Lord have any speculations?"
Ji Fu chuckled and said, "I believe the Marquis and I might have thought of the same place—the Immortal Sect!"
Lü Chang nodded and said, "Only those legendary Immortal Sects could possess such unparalleled inherited treasures!"
Ji Fu slightly said, "Then, let’s collaborate!"
Lü Chang chuckled and said, "Indeed, we should join forces; such a treasure should belong to those of us who are worthy!"
