At the same time, Chu Feng and the others within the Inheritance Cavern had all noticed that the formation had been successfully activated.
"I didn't expect it to actually work. Your grandfather is quite capable."
Upon seeing the formation — which could observe their movements — come to life, even Liangqiu Hongyue cast an approving glance toward Shura Zhao Kun.
Although both of Master Liangqiu's disciples wore masks, her gaze was unmistakable to everyone present.
After all, they were all Dragon-marked Immortal-robed Spirit World Masters. They possessed the sensitivity and judgment to read such things.
In particular, upon sensing the surprise in her gaze, Shura Zhao Kun grew even more smug and said to her: "Miss Hongyue, Miss Lanyue, as disciples of Master Liangqiu, you may not be very familiar with my grandfather, which is why you didn't believe he could accomplish it before."
"But in truth, my grandfather is renowned throughout the Upper Realm — he is the strongest Spirit World Master in all of the Upper Realm."
Hearing these words, Liangqiu Hongyue raised an eyebrow and said: "Is that so? Then why have I heard that the strongest Spirit World Master in the Upper Realm is the Grand Elder of the Chu Heavenly Clan, Chu Ling Aoran?"
"Well…"
Shura Zhao Kun became somewhat embarrassed.
In truth, it wasn't just him who was embarrassed — even outside the Inheritance Cavern, his grandfather Zhao Kuang Fengyi wore an awkward expression on his face.
Zhao Kuang Fengyi's spirit arts were indeed formidable in the Upper Realm. One could say that apart from Chu Ling Aoran, he was the strongest.
However, when compared to Chu Ling Aoran, he still fell considerably short.
In his younger days, when he was still rash and arrogant, Zhao Kuang Fengyi had once sparred with Chu Ling Aoran, only to suffer a crushing defeat.
After that, he had devoted himself tirelessly to his cultivation, yet he had never managed to surpass Chu Ling Aoran.
It could be said that from their youth, Chu Ling Aoran had always dominated Zhao Kuang Fengyi — not only in the art of formations, but in martial cultivation as well.
Even the woman he had loved ultimately gave her heart to Chu Ling Aoran and ended up with him.
As such, Chu Ling Aoran was Zhao Kuang Fengyi's eternal pain.
This was not only common knowledge throughout the Upper Realm — quite a few people across the Ancestral Martial Star Field knew of it as well.
Shura Zhao Kun, unaware of his own limits, had actually boasted that his grandfather was the greatest in the Upper Realm, only to be shut down on the spot by Liangqiu Hongyue. This not only cost him all face, but also left his grandfather in an uncomfortable position.
"Cough, cough — everyone, look quickly! That must be the Origin Inheritance Formation, right?"
Elder Tuoba, seemingly eager to defuse the awkward atmosphere, pointed toward the front of the formation.
And now, all eyes turned in that direction.
The Origin Inheritance Formation was the most critical formation within the Inheritance Cavern.
It governed the number of inheritance points, so seeing it drew eager anticipation from the elders.
After all, Chu Feng and the others would soon be entering the Origin Inheritance Formation, and their talent would determine how many inheritance points they could activate.
For Chu Feng and the rest, naturally, the more inheritance points the better.
"It really is the Origin Inheritance Formation. I wonder how many inheritance points can be activated this time."
"The all-time record is 700 inheritance points. With Master Liangqiu's two disciples here today, there's a chance the previous record could be broken," said an elder from the Starfall Holy Land.
"Not 'a chance' — it's certain. Setting aside Master Liangqiu's two disciples, Chu Feng himself is no ordinary talent. With their combined aptitude, they will absolutely break the previous record," said another elder from the Starfall Holy Land.
"Not necessarily."
Just as the Starfall Holy Land elders were brimming with confidence, an elder from the Nine Profound Sect doused them with cold water.
"Don't forget who set that record. It was someone from our Nine Profound Sect. Today, one has inherited our Sect Master's seat, and the remaining four all hold positions of great authority within our Nine Profound Sect."
"He is our Nine Profound Sect's current strongest fighter. It was he who elevated our Nine Profound Sect to heights never before seen."
"Moreover, during that time within the Inheritance Cavern, he too achieved outstanding results."
"The Starfall Holy Land must be well aware of this as well, correct?"
The silver-haired elder of the Nine Profound Sect regarded the gathered Starfall Holy Land elders as he spoke.
