Chapter 205

"Obtaining my legacy is simple," Jiang Yu said.

"I spent the first half of my life practicing the sword, but my talent for the sword path was ultimately too lacking. Therefore, in the latter half of my life I painstakingly practiced the zither and sought enlightenment through music."

"However, after attaining enlightenment through the zither, I could no longer find any zither sheet music in the world that could move me."

"So, if you are able to find zither sheet music that moves me and play it before me to my satisfaction, you will obtain my legacy!"

Jiang Yu's voice echoed around.

It caused a huge commotion among the crowd.

"Zither sheet music."

"It turns out to be zither sheet music!"

As the crowd discussed passionately, they were also racking their brains over this key point.

"Senior, to obtain your legacy, is it necessary to not only have zither sheet music that moves you, but also have extremely high zither skills to play it?" Fifth Sky couldn't help asking, "But most of us here are simply terrible at playing the zither!"

"That's right!"

"We really don't know how to play the zither well!"

After Fifth Sky spoke, the crowd echoed as well.

"That's not the case!"

Jiang Yu's voice boomed, "I only need you to compose zither sheet music that moves me. That in itself demonstrates your talent in the zither path. On the contrary, zither skills are not as important, because good skills can be acquired through practice over time."

"I see, that makes sense."

Hearing this, the previously disappointed crowd became hopeful again.

For those who did not specifically cultivate the zither, playing it was simply impossible. But composing sheet music was hard to say.

It was very possible for someone to randomly compose a piece that would become widely circulated.

After all, many classic pieces currently circulating in the Immortal River Continent were created by ordinary people. Many of them had never even seen a zither before. They would hum tunes while working the fields, and others would adapt them into sheet music after overhearing it.The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.

"So feel free to try boldly," Jiang Yu transmitted again. "And the successful one will not only obtain my legacy, but also receive this imperial-grade zither stand as a gift."

As his voice fell, a flash of golden light flickered in his hand.

Then, to the crowd's shock, a zither stand half a zhang in length and width appeared, suspended in midair.

As soon as it emerged, it exuded a heavy aura, involuntarily exerting tremendous pressure.

Intricate, vivid carvings adorned its entirety. It was azure throughout, appearing to be made of stone, though the crowd knew for certain that it was crafted from some unrecognizable supreme material.

A female cultivator holding a zither emerged from the crowd and sat down cross-legged on the ground.

Next,

a melodious zither piece slowly played out.

The crowd tactfully maintained silence and watched Jiang Yu's reaction intently.

Unexpectedly, after the piece concluded, Jiang Yu sitting atop the zither stand did not even open his eyes once.

The female cultivator's expression was a bit ugly.

The others were relieved, but also grew tenser.

To be honest, that female cultivator's playing was quite good. But she couldn't even make Jiang Yu open his eyes, which clearly showed obtaining his legacy would be no simple feat.

"Then senior, allow me to play another piece."

The female cultivator bit her red lips, undeterred.

"Each person has only three chances. After three times, their qualification will be revoked," came Jiang Yu's deep voice from atop the zither stand.

Hearing this, the female cultivator's face paled dramatically.

The others were also greatly shocked. Those who had been itching to try now didn't dare make a move. It seemed trying to fish in troubled waters by luck was not viable.

As expected, after the female cultivator played another piece, Jiang Yu still did not open his eyes.

And so,

time slowly passed. Many cultivators attempted, including Fifth Sky and Peng Xian'er who each wasted a chance without moving Jiang Yu in the slightest.

"Elder Sky, have Heavenly Sword Sect gather the best zither sheet music in the world using the fastest speed, and deliver it here fastest possible." Peng Xian'er immediately ordered the nearby Chang Jiankong.

"Yes, my lady."

Chang Jiankong swiftly departed.

Seeing this, Fifth Sky was unwilling to fall behind, and also began notifying Blowing Snow Mountain Villa to mobilize forces to gather zither sheet music.

This kind of cheating was originally prohibited by Jiang Yu, since he had clearly stated that only those who composed the sheet music could obtain his legacy.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yu did not stop Peng Xian'er and the others' actions.

Thus, the other factions followed suit, and many even called in outside help.

In a short time,

the number of gathered people outside Pingjiang City grew greater and greater.

Yet still, no one even qualified to make Jiang Yu open his eyes.
