Roleplay As Cultivator
29: Inheritance
“It's not over”
…
‘That's what I've been saying since five minutes ago’
huff~ huff~ huff~ huff~
Tian Jie looked at the Undead Knight in front of him in a state of exhaustion. His breath was quick and felt tight. His body is full of bruises. Blood dripped on each of his bodies. He was down with one knee touching the ground. The sword in his left hand stuck into the ground and he used it to hold his body so as not to fall forward. His half-opened right eye could no longer focus.
Suddenly Tian Jie frowned.
‘kuh, this headache again’
He had used too much of his spell cantrip so a headache attacked him again. His body had already reached the limit of usage, even he had difficulty lifting his head upright. But the conditions did not allow him to rest.
Dug~ dug~ dug~
The sound of heavy footsteps approached him.
Tian Jie did not need to see who was approaching to know who it was. The strongest enemy he had ever fought since reincarnating into this world. An enemy he should not be fighting at his level right now. But his choice to help someone make a fate leads him to fight it.
Had Tian Jie regretted helping Huang Qingyue, of course he was sorry. If only to let Huang Qingyue complete her own mission and just ask the direction of the nearest city. Right now he must be resting in a tavern to try the culinary of this world. But behind his regrets he also felt relieved.
‘So like this sense of being an adventurer’
Tian Jie of course had always wanted to feel how adventurous in the real fantasy world was like inside the TRPG he had always played. He who always plays a kind character when playing TRPG, can not afford to let an NPC (non-player character) just die. He who feels emotional when an NPC who always accompanies him in the TRPG dies in his adventure story. He would always choose to help those NPCs even if he knew his opponent was too strong. It was like he was trying to help Huang Qingyue at the moment.
‘Haaah, it's a pity this ended so quickly’
‘I still want to enjoy this adventure’
DUG~ DUG~
The sound of heavy footsteps stopped exactly one step in front of Tian Jie.
‘It seems .., here's the end’
BAAAM~
A loud blow hit Tian Jie's stomach. He was thrown far back without taking off the sword in his left hand. He rolled - rolled and stopped when he hit a big rock. Both of his eyes were closed.
Cough~ cough~
Blood came out of Tian Jie's mouth. His body trembled because he was still trying to move but it was already impossible.
‘Sorry .. Qing .. yue’
Darkness began to seal Tian Jie's entire consciousness.
…
If Tian Jie could still hold back for a moment just his consciousness he would see the system before his eyes that were flashing red.

[STARTING PROCEDURE .. ]
…
Deep in the darkness of the dungeon, in a place unknown location with certainty. Sounds - sounds like a lot of people are talking.
“Is he worth ?”
“He can calmly analyze the situation and determine the steps felt best”
“But unfortunately all of it is useless in the presence of absolute strength”
“His doubts in the fight will be one of his weaknesses”
“Is he worth ?”
“He dared to advance alone to give his friend a chance to escape”
“Nothing sacrifice, trying to be a hero like a fool”
“But he has a soul to a good knight to be able to face them”
“Is he worth ?”
“He has a powerful technique and very rarely has a cultivator of the same level”
“Very stupid, he did not master perfectly the basis of his use of weapons”
“Silence, he always smashes his weapon when using his technique”
“I don't have the heart to see the sacrifice of weapons - weapons it”
“But the potential he has is huge”
“Is he worth ?”
“””...”””
“We have no other choice”
“He's the best so far”
“chef, he's still too rough and hasn't polished well”
“Conclusion .. ”
“How about her friend's girl ?”
“””...”””
“She also has a qualifier”
“Plin - plan”
“Too think of unnecessary things in fight”
“She was too discarding - waste her talent potential to use will power”
“And the technique he used was very stupid”
“True - really wasted - nyiakan his own talent”
“Can't he also be the bearer of our heritage with his talent ?”
“””...”””
“What if we give fire seed to this girl ?”
“Isn't this boy who has more qualifications?”
“We will give everything to these men except fire” seeds
“Cih, I hope he can use my kids better”
“I want to test it once again”
“””...”””
…
The Undead Knight walked up to Tian Jie's already motionless body again. The Undead Knight's armor was full of cut marks. His head, right arm, and left chest were gone, but he was still able to move freely. The Green Flame was still burning strongly from the cavities - the cavities of the armor. If one were to pay more careful attention, there was a shadow of a human skull from within the green flames.
Suddenly a circle of light containing magic symbols appeared under the feet of the Undead Knight. A chain came out from that circle of light and bound the Undead Knight's left hand.
The Undead Knight was furious and tried to let go of his hand by stomping the chain. But the chain was sturdy and unaffected.
Not long after another chain appeared and bound the Undead Knight's waist, making him even more thrashed. The two chains bound both feet of the Undead Knight and finally made him stop moving.
As the Undead Knight was still trying to break away from the chains - the chains that bound him, a halo full of magic symbols also appeared under Tian Jie's body.
…
Inside the darkness Tian Jie was like floating in the void until he heard a voice greeting him.
“hai, youngster”
Tian Jie who had just sensed the death of the two was still a little dazed and not too focused.
“Who are you ?”
“Not who - who”
“Only a soul from time already passed”
Tian Jie simply remained silent without a sound. He could not open his eyes or move his body. Even the voice he heard and let out seemed to be directly heard in his mind.
“hei, I have a fire seed that can be used to form the spiritual core of fire”
“Do you want it ?”
Tian Jie did not show any expression.
“Can you give it to my friend ?”
“Your friend ?”
“You mean that disabled girl ?”
“Why do you even want to give it to him ?”
Tian Jie's lips slightly raised.
“She still has a future to grow”
“While I've been gated natural limit”
The void returned for a while until the voice sounded again.
“Alright, I'll give this to him”
“Are you sure you don't want to recover ?”
“Can this seed fire will help you”
Tian Jie wanted to shake his head but couldn't he move.
“If I were the one who died, no one would lose me”
“But she still has a mother for her care”
“... Ah, and the sister she loves”
“... You're really a good person”
“I hope you keep this legacy well”
Tian Jie felt a power flowing towards him. A massive amount of spiritual energy flowed into his body forcefully. The magic circle in his heart started to glow brightly.
