THE LEGEND OF GENIUS THROUGHOUT THE REALM
Emperor Shenwu's legacy?

After the alliance of the four heavens had been officially formed, all the powers belonging to the alliance were required to send their main force to the residence of the Northern Lightning Palace as it would be trained together.

A number of cities and other great powers gained a void over its main force and left little power to protect their place.

In this some time, Jiang Feng who was leading the alliance started to form several strong teams to spread it to the four regions and destroy all the branches of the blood clan.

But, the blood clan was so cunning and ruthless, they did not provide any help towards their branch at all and instead decided to cut off their tails.

With the destruction of all the branches of the blood clan in the four regions, this gave at least a little sense of security to everyone as their enemies were only centered at one point instead of scattered into many points.

Now that time passed quickly, the members of the alliance had become one and no one expressed any differences with each other.

All the Great Sovereign experts had united and created an extremely powerful spiritual formation with incredible defensive power.

This spiritual formation formed a barrier like a glass bowl that enclosed the entire area of the four star cities and the Northern Lightning Palace as its center. With this, the extent of this spiritual formation was unimaginable.

In the room full of report documents, Jiang Feng looked very busy to take care of all those documents, many had to be signed and some had to make him think of a strategy.

In these three months, Jiang Feng might not have been injured at all but he had already felt tremendous torment when he was confined within his room.

"Well, you seem very busy..." The voice of the young man from the direction of the large window near Jiang Feng suddenly sounded in the room.

Jiang Feng put down the documents he was taking care of and turned towards a figure that was none other than Tian Lei.

"Well, that's how. Although I'm a little troubled, but Jiaolong sometimes helps me here..." He said as he currently looked at Tian Lei who was sitting at the window with a warm smile towards him.

Tian Lei grunted softly. "I'm sorry for making yourself the leader of this alliance. That's why you're tormented like this..." Said Tian Lei in a soft and warm voice.

Jiang Feng closed in with a smile and sighed. "Well, stop. It's for everyone's survival anyway..." Said Jiang Feng and Tian Lei nodding softly.

Jiang Feng then turned his head towards Tian Lei and raised his eyebrows. "You suddenly came out when it was only three months since you were cultivating in a closed way. You haven't broken through 3-star either. Is this the time?..." Jiang Feng asked curiously.

Tian Lei nodded. "Well, we can't linger. I'm not quite sure where that place is either. Either it really exists, or even it doesn't actually exist..." Said Tian Lei, he seems to be quite frustrated with it.

Tian Lei then looked at Jiang Feng back. "Then, what about the three seniors? Are they still very busy?..." Ask her with raised eyebrows.

Jiang Feng nodded. "Well, especially senior Shen, he is the one who is very busy at the moment. My grandfather and senior Wang are training his students. Then, senior Shen left Ning'er in closed-door training and went back to look for the whereabouts of Emperor Shenwu's relics..." Said Jiang Feng.

Tian Lei nodded his head in understanding and smiled. "The old man still hasn't given up? It seemed that he was very sure that his teacher had indeed left something before ascending..." Said Tian Lei and Jiang Feng appearing to show a solemn look on his face.

"I wish it really existed. If the thing that Emperor Shenwu was supposed to leave behind that senior Shen had said really existed, then we have a much higher chance of winning..." Said Jiang Feng and Tian Lei nodding to justify.

Before long, the big door of Jiang Feng's room started knocking on someone from the outside.

"Jiang Feng, may I come in?..."

Hearing this familiar voice, Tian Lei and Jiang Feng now looked at each other with serious faces and then both nodded together.

This voice belonged to none other than Shen Jian who had likely just returned from his investigation.

"Senior Shen, please come in..." Said Jiang Feng.

The big door opened and Shen Jian outside started to step in, as he walked on the red carpet, in the middle of the way the big door behind him closed without touching it.

Shen Jian then looked towards the window and smiled after seeing the whereabouts of one person. "Oh? Tian Lei's? You're out of training?..."

Tian Lei raised his brows in curiosity. "Then, is there any progress in your research?..."

When he heard the question from Tian Lei, Shen Jian's countenance now became more serious and he started to sit on the chair in front of Jiang Feng's large table.

"This is what I want you to talk about..." Said Shen Jian who had sat down and the two young figures immediately looked at him closely.

"I've told you that the lotus island has been turned into a sea of ice, haven't I?..." Said Shen Jian and the two figures nodded.

"I have found a big hole in the center of the sea of ice. I'm sure that the hole was originally where the lotus island was located. Most likely, there is a relic of Emperor Shenwu there..." The words of Shen Jian and Tian Lei looked doubtful to Shen Jian's statement.

"You're not just guessing, are you? Because if this were just a guess, wouldn't it be a waste of our time?..." Tian Lei asked seriously.

Shen Jian nodded in understanding. "Well, I understand what you mean. It might be like just my guess. But, I am very sure of what I believe. And again, I felt a familiar cold energy from the hole. This is what makes me even more convinced by Emperor Shenwu's legacy..." Shen Jian.

"Then did you get inside?..." Ask Tian Lei again.

Shen Jian shook his head. "No, I can't do that because there's a starry confinement seal sealing the entrance. It takes at least six people to be able to break this seal together..."

After hearing this, Tian Lei somewhat closed in for a moment and sighed. "Well, this is convincing enough to explore..." Tian Lei.

Shen Jian then looked at Tian Lei seriously and this made Tian Lei a little confused.

Tian Lei raised his eyebrows. "What's wrong? Is there anything you want to tell me?..."

Shen Jian nodded slowly. "There's a little problem. But I don't know for sure if this is really a problem or not..." Said Shen Jian and made Tian Lei even more confused.

"What is that?..." Tian Lei asked the increasingly curious.

"The greatest possibility is that you are not the one who can obtain Emperor Shenwu's legacy. You're a genius, but genius isn't the most important thing in a great legacy. Balance and harmony are the most important. Your energy with Emperor Shenwu is very much different, therefore even if you come to that place, you won't get anything..." Said Shen Jian with a bad taste.

Hearing this, Tian Lei did not show any disappointment at all and instead smiled. "Oh, so. Then, there is no other choice for me but to retreat. Then, who do you think can obtain Emperor Shenwu's legacy?..." Tian Lei asked the curious.

Shen Jian showed a smile. "My disciple, your beloved, he is the perfect fit for the inheritance. His sword energy was perfectly suited to receive an inheritance if it was indeed that thing left behind by Emperor Shenwu..." Shen Jian.

Tian Lei then nodded and looked out the window, he raised his face and looked up at the sky. "If it's like you said, maybe it's much better. Since I may not need to follow you to retrieve Emperor Shenwu's relics, then I will hasten my journey towards 'that place'..." Said Tian Lei softly.

Jiang Feng who was behind by Tian Lei raised his eyebrows. "Are you really sure? Is there no need to rest for a while and think about it better? Besides, that place isn't necessarily there..." Said Jiang Feng.

Tian Lei smiled. "It is precisely because it is uncertain that I must hasten my journey. If it does exist, then I will stay there to practice. If it's not really there, then I'll be home soon..." Said Tian Lei and Jiang Feng could only sigh.

Jiang Feng then nodded in surprise. "Well, you're right..." He said with frustration.

"Then, when are you leaving?..." Shen Jian asked.

"Right now, too..." Tian Lei.

"You don't want to say goodbye to the others first?..." Shen Jian said in surprise.

Tian Lei shook his head. "I don't want to interrupt their training. Just tell them that when I come back and they haven't reached the Great Lord, then I will punish them..." Said Tian Lei with a gentle smile and Shen Jian nodded with a smile as well.

"All right, I'll tell you..." Said Shen Jian softly.
