This ancient relic, sealed with items from the ancient past, seems to have been created by Wang Yifeng and Mian Xiaoxue themselves after they discovered the relic.

Therefore, when Mian Xiaoxue threw a punch, she directly shattered the stone that sealed off the ancient relic.

A burst of even colder air instantly surged out from the entrance, and in just a flash, the water on the surface of the lake gave signs of wanting to freeze over.

This time, Wang Ye did not have to withstand the cold himself; a force from Mian Xiaoxue's body rushed towards him, helping him to resist the invasion of the cold aura.

Mian Xiaoxue, leading Wang Ye, arrived at the center of the ancient relic—a place that resembled a small palace. It wasn't very large, but every corner gave off a sense of exquisite beauty.

It was as if the beings who once lived here didn't care about size, but only the quality of the palace itself.

The level of detail.

"You've come again."

A voice echoed out of nowhere, a woman's voice, which felt ethereal as she spoke.

"Yes, this time, I've brought someone who can inherit the legacy."

Mian Xiaoxue didn't waste words; she simply took a step back, allowing Wang Ye to stand in front.

Wang Ye didn't step back; he believed that his shiniang (female martial arts instructor) certainly wouldn't harm him.

Moreover, if he couldn't improve his own strength in a short period of time, then in the subsequent battles against those foreign adversaries, he too would be dealt with by those foreigners.

Wang Ye felt a gaze sizing him up, observing every corner of his body. In just a moment, he felt as though he had been thoroughly scrutinized.

"Water momentum."

After a moment of contemplation, the cold female voice finally said, "The water momentum is sufficient."

"You go out first."

This was directed at Mian Xiaoxue.

Mian Xiaoxue nodded slightly and went straight out of the ancient relic, leaving Wang Ye alone.

Wang Ye didn't know where the voice was coming from. His gaze swept around the ancient relic, which was different from the two he had seen before.

The previous relics were either a troop of soldiers or an entire city.

The one in front of him resembled more of a cave dwelling carved out by ancients as a place for cultivation.

Wang Ye understood that this female voice probably belonged to the former master of the cave dwelling.

He didn't sense any dangerous aura, which meant that the master of this dwelling didn't have any malevolent intentions towards him.

"My name is Lei Linger."

The cave dwelling's master said, "The one rumored to have found fortune in Changbai Mountain, Guo Yi, was my man."

"However, the place where I reside isn't the ancient relic he discovered, but merely a residence I set up myself for the strange beasts here. Now, times have changed, the creatures I guarded are all extinct, and I have perished, leaving behind only a Remnant Soul here."

"After I pass this legacy on to you, my Remnant Soul will probably disappear."

In just a few sentences, Lei Linger seemed to be introducing herself, but the amount of information revealed was immense.

First, even Mian Xiaoxue herself probably didn't know this was not their intended relic to explore, but merely another one. The true site with the vast legacy has yet to be found by her and her group.

There are other ancient relics in Changbai Mountain.

Second, there were once monsters here, but now these creatures have died under long-term suppression.

Third, Lei Linger was Guo Yi's woman. According to some known information, Guo Yi was indeed an unequaled prodigy of his time, extremely powerful, yet even his woman had to personally suppress monsters here, spending the last of her life on this task. What exactly happened back then?

Under these circumstances, Wang Ye habitually sorted through the important clues threaded within her words.

Although this information might not be immediately useful to him, organizing it would do no harm.

If even one piece of information proved useful to Wang Ye later on, then it was worth it to him.

As Wang Ye pondered these thoughts, Lei Linger's cool voice grew more serious, "You are not from this level world, no, you possess special powers from two different level worlds."

"Do you plan to go to a higher-level world next?"

It seemed that the prospect of Wang Ye traveling to a higher-level world was of great importance to Lei Linger, so she spoke seriously, prompting Wang Ye to consider the issue deeply.

"Yes."

Wang Ye nodded affirmatively, as his intention to journey to a higher-level world was not a secret; many were aware of it.

Furthermore, he was only dealing with a Remnant Soul; after she passed the legacy to him, this being would likely just die off.

Thus, he had even less to worry about.

"If you are going to the higher-level world, then you need to think carefully."

"I was the Sect Master of Ice Sect from that higher-level world. I don't know the current status of Ice Sect, but if it still exists, you must join Ice Sect after you arrive in the higher-level world," she insisted.

"The legacy I give you is that of Ice Sect."

"If how you fare in this world doesn't matter to you, in that world, if Ice Sect still exists, you must join it."

Lei Linger's tone was very serious as she spoke these words, her cold voice conveying a hint of hopefulness, wishing for Wang Ye to consent to this condition.

"I agree."

Wang Ye replied without hesitation.

Not to mention whether the Ice Sect would still exist when he reached the higher-level world.

If Ice Sect truly existed, then joining a powerful sect with a formidable background as soon as he arrived in the higher-level world would surely make it easier for him to thrive there.

After all, this was the sect where the woman of an unmatched prodigy once belonged.

No matter what, it was clear that it would be a major sect with great strength.
