<h4>Chapter 4012: Practice Field</h4>

Xu Yiyun eventually regained her wits after a long while. As the visual phenomenon dispersed, she found herself to be next to Li Qiye and Lu Qi again on the busy street.
“Ho-how long have I been standing here?” She asked.
“Just a second.” Li Qiye smilingly answered.
Yiyun found this surprising because she thought that millions of years have passed in that universe. She then realized that Li Qiye had shown her the way to a supreme sword dao - a shortcut towards supremacy.
“How can I ever repay your kindness, Young Noble? Though I am incapable, I will do everything I can as your follower.” Yiyun took a deep breath, tidied her dress, then prostrated before Li Qiye.
Hepletely changed the direction of her life despite only being a stranger, giving her both the precious grass sword and starting her on the dao path.
Those from the same sect might not be so kind. A disciple needed to prove themselves for years and years before being treated as a serious prospect. This only amplified her gratitude for his kind deed.
“Rise.” Li Qiye epted her grand gesture and nodded.
She got up while still being overwhelmed with emotions. Her life would go on apletely different trajectory as a result.
Meanwhile, Purification Street remained lively. At the end of this street was a building named Practice Field.
It was packed with people and carriage now, making it difficult to enter and leave.
When Li Qiye’s group arrived, there was virtually no ce to stand.
“Young Noble, this building belongs to Archaic Style as well. It bes hot each time the Preeminent Legacy is about to open. Cultivatorse here in order to learn and practice, hoping to understand the rules and mysteries beforehand.” Yiyun exined.
“Archaic Style really knows how to make money. Having a pact with the dao lord while still trying to profit as well.” Li Qiye smiled while looking at the building.
The Preeminent Legacy was established by Omniscient Dao Lord. However, since this dao lord didn’t have descendants and disciples, the legacy’s administration was left to Archaic Style.
This trustee didn’t let the dao lord down either. The wealth left behind didn’t diminish but rather grew to a monstrous level.
Of course, Archaic Style also took advantage of this and profited in other manners.
“Young Noble, would you like to give it a shot?” A shop assistant came over and asked him: “Our manager said that it would be our honor to have you participate.”
“So we don’t need to pay?” Yiyun smiled.
“Fairy Xu, it would be in poor taste to talk about money with the young noble. Just his presence alone is all we need.” The assistant happily said.
“Not bad, knowing propriety is one reason why your shop hassted so long.” Li Qiye praised.
The enthusiastic assistant guided the three into the building. They found that this was another independent realm in the form of arge field. There appeared to be numerous tes that were almost as deep as a pot. However, the main difference was these tes had little squares in them with various runes carved inside. The runes wereplex and strange, easily causing people to be dizzy.
The tes imitated the Preeminent Legacy. Therger they were, the more simr.
Of course, it meant paying a higher price for ess as well. As long as one had enough money, they could attempt repeatedly.
The field was also packed once Li Qiye’s group entered. Each te had one expert attempting to solve the puzzle. They hoped that with the knowledge gained here, they would be able to solve the Preeminent Legacy.
In this ce, one could make some money back after an attempt. This wasn’t the case for the Preeminent Legacy. The te there was akin to a gluttonous devil that would devour everyone’s resources. The only way to get anything back was to solve it.
Nheless, the minuscule chance of winning didn’t diminish everyone’s enthusiasm. The prize was just too tempting - winning meant bing the richest in the world.
As time went on, the resources of the legacy grew and cultivators’ greed grew as well. Their chance was virtually none given the historical precedent. Nheless, some could argue that this was more tempting than bing a dao lord. Some lost everything in this game, bing addicted gamblers.
Li Qiye took a look around and smiled: “Your group has done a good job copying the te.”
“Thank you, Young Noble, but they’re mere imitations, nothing more.” The assistant said: “Either way, they have to understand the tes here before solving the mysteries at the legacy.”
Archaic Style merely copied the main te, unable to duplicate it fully. Nheless, cultivators still came to increase their overallprehension of this eternal puzzle.
“The tes are all unique, the same with the transformations and derivations. Everyone will find different possibilities and chances.” The assistant added.
“You’re trying to figure out the mystery of the legacy as well, that’s why you’re borrowing the mind of all cultivators while profiting on top of it. What a favorable transaction.” Li Qiye smiled and revealed.
“It would be foolish to not take advantage of this opportunity.” The assistant coughed awkwardly but didn’t deny the usation.
Omniscient Dao Lord’s wealth was known by all. Moreover, he was even better at umtion than his peers but most importantly, he had no descendants.
This meant that everything he got was stored in this treasury. With the help of Archaic Style, this legacy only grew more and more.
The problem for Archaic Style was that as the trustee, it couldn’t just take the legacy. Of course, this didn’t mean that they haven’t tried. In fact, the opposite happened across the years.
This field was the perfect example. They gained both precious data and money from these imitation tes. It would be foolish to stop.
Li Qiye casually nced at the tes and saw cultivators tossing their money into the center. This was the way to start the process.
“The higher-level tes are more simr to the real thing, do you want to try, Young Noble?” The assistant asked.
“Mere imitations, there’s nothing worthwhile here.” Li Qiye responded.
“I see. It makes sense that our simple tes aren’t sufficient for someone of your stature, Young Noble.” The assistant was not offended.
