The two kept moving forward, and the further they got, the more restless Luo Xiao became. However, the pain in his mind receded and was replaced by a strangely familiar feeling of anticipation.
His heart was beating rapidly, and his eyes sparkled with excitement as he began moving faster, towards the direction where the calling came from.
Although he had been vigilant at the beginning, the more he advanced, the more the feeling of excitement took over his mind and somewhat messed up his rationality, making it so that he forgot his initial vigilance.
Fortunately, Jiang Yao was by his side, and he sensed that something was strange with Luo Xiao, but he did not stop him. Instead, he spread his aura, and scared any beasts in the vicinity away, while keeping a keen eye on his lover, to ensure that nothing went out of control.
He was currently not worried; he knew that it was natural that the sense of familiarity would confuse the target, and that the legacies often had an unintentional illusion array.
This illusion array was not made to harm or trouble the heir; it was simply a side effect from ensuring that the right person was chosen.
When a legacy was created, it usually had a specific criteria that needed to be fulfilled before it would activate. It could be someone's talent that had to reach a specific tier; it could also be the soul that had to be of a particular grade.
The legacy owner could set any rule that they wanted; it could be an age limit, or even a gender restriction. It could also be that they needed a be of a specific race, or have a particular bloodline.
However, when the criteria were met, they had to somehow entice and inform the chosen person of the legacy's existence, and thus it would create a longing in the person that had been picked.
Unfortunately, the stronger this legacy was, the more overwhelming this longing would become, and the harder it was to resist it.
Luo Xiao was already trying his best, but it was clear that his cultivation base held no challenge for this unknown emotion. His mind was lost in the strange feeling of longing.
Jiang Yao was not worried about him; instead, he was excited. Such a strong legacy would truly help him improve and move forward. He was not envious or jealous; all he felt was happiness on behalf of Luo Xiao.
This was also why he was so protective on the way, ensuring that no beast would dare to approach them. He kept his vigilance high for both of them.
It was also because he kept his vigilance so high that he noticed that the closer to this unknown phenomenon they came, the fewer beasts would appear in the surroundings. It was as if this place was deserted; as if there was a strong power that already had suppressed the beasts that would usually roam this part of the beast ridge.
Jiang Yao was confident that it was a legacy; everything was pointing towards it. So he was not worried about what was happening around him, but even so, he knew that unexpected things might happen at any time, and he did not lower his vigilance.
It was one thing to be confident; another was to be unprepared. Things could always go wrong, and they needed to be ready for such a thing.
Luo Xiao was not in a mindset to be careful, so he had to be on guard for both of them. It was heard of people that would die on their way to a legacy because the euphoria from its calling had caused them to forget everything else, and get killed on the way.
He was not going to allow such a thing to happen to Luo Xiao.
As they went further into the forest that covered the beast ridge, Jiang Yao noticed the trees were growing more robust in this part. Their leaves had a more vibrant color, their tree trunks were thicker than others, and they were also taller from a height perspective.
This part of the forest was extremely healthy, but it was a health that had been provided by outside factors.
It was clear that this part of the forest had absorbed more energy than other regions, and Jiang Yao frowned. Usually, such phenomenons appeared with the birth of a spirit, or in areas with dense energy.
These things rarely had anything to do with legacies, and he became alert once more. Was this not a legacy, or had the one who left the legacy chosen this area because of the dense energy?
Luo Xiao and Jiang Yao soon reached a mountainside. The mountainside was towering above them, it stood like a wall that blocked their advance, and Jiang Yao could not help but wonder how they could cross it when Luo Xiao suddenly began moving to its left side.
He had raised his hand and placed it on top of the wall, slowly following the contours of the stone, before he suddenly pressed on an unknown mechanism that was hidden to the eye.
Luo Xiao was not conscious now. All his actions were caused by the strange feeling in his body; however, when the mechanism was pressed, it was as if someone had dropped a bucket of cold water on his head, and his mind sobered up.
A rumbling sound filled the deserted mountain forest, and slowly, the mountain in front of them began trembling as a cave entrance appeared right where they were standing.
Luo Xiao, who had regained his senses, took a step back in shock as he looked at the cave before turning his head to look at Jiang Yao with some worries. What were they supposed to do now?
