Chapter 944 Unknown Test

Everyone was in a solemn mood and didn't dare to miss a single word.

"The first one is one's mind and nature." The voice paused, as if observing everyone's reaction.

"Everything you have experienced before was just a test of your mortal body. Now is the beginning of your true journey to inheritance! Only those with a firm mind can resist temptation and not be trapped by the demons in their hearts."

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked.

They are all the chosen ones of their respective sects. They have experienced countless temptations and tests along the way and pride themselves on being resolute. However, at this moment, facing this unknown test, they can't help feeling a little uneasy.

"What about the second one?" Someone couldn't help but ask, "Excuse me, Senior, what is this second test?"

"The second is the root of the Tao." The voice said lightly, "I see that you are all people with outstanding talents, but the road of cultivation is not always smooth. Only those with deep roots of the Tao can surpass others and finally reach the pinnacle."

When everyone heard this, they were all silent, but there was a storm in their hearts.

This Kunpeng inheritance is indeed extraordinary, it even tests the Dao root!

"Senior, what about the third one?" At this moment, Ye Tianming suddenly asked with a hint of doubt in his tone, "You only mentioned two tests, the third one..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the voice: "The third test, most of you, or even all of you, can't reach that step, so what's the point of talking about it?"

These words were filled with endless pressure and indifference, as if this so-called third test had nothing to do with them at all.

When everyone heard this, they all felt a chill in their hearts, and a chill went from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads.

What exactly is this third test? Why does this voice say this?

Could it be that... this third test is simply beyond their reach?

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness.

Are these gifted children of heaven so incompetent in the eyes of this senior?

Seeing everyone was silent, the voice sounded again, "Do you have any questions?"

The words spoken by that voice seemed to turn on a taboo switch, and everyone's breathing became rapid.

They stared intently at the direction where the sound came from, as if they wanted to see through the void.

"Senior, what exactly is this third test? Are we really hopeless?" Lei Yuxiao still didn't give up and couldn't help asking, with a hint of unwillingness and despair in his tone.

The voice was silent for a moment. Just when everyone thought they would not get an answer, it sounded again, and it was as cold as if it came from the abyss of the underworld: "It doesn't matter if I tell you. You can't get through anyway."

Everyone's heart shuddered. This casual tone was like a heavy hammer, hitting them hard in the heart and making them feel suffocated.

"This secret realm opens once every hundred years. Every time, it welcomes a group of young people who claim to be the chosen ones of heaven." The voice carried a hint of mockery, as if looking at a group of ants who did not know their own limitations.

"A hundred years ago, there was also a group of geniuses like you who came here. They were full of confidence and thought they could inherit Kunpeng's legacy and become the masters of this world."

At this point, the voice paused, and everyone seemed to be able to feel the fleeting sadness and vicissitudes in its tone, which made them feel even more uneasy, as if an invisible hand was tightly strangling their throats.

"But what was the result?" The voice suddenly rose, like a thunderous explosion, "They all failed! No one was able to pass the test, and they all died here in the end!"

When everyone heard this, they were shocked as if struck by lightning. Their faces turned pale, as if they had lost their parents.

Are these gifted ones not even qualified to be a group of losers?

"Senior, this... this is impossible!" Someone exclaimed in disbelief, "Those geniuses are all extremely talented, how could they..."

"Why not?" The voice snorted coldly, interrupting him. "They are conceited and arrogant, thinking that they can get everything with a little talent! Little do they know that in this world, what is more important than talent is character, perseverance, and... opportunity!"

When everyone heard this, they were all silent, but there was a storm in their hearts.

Yes, they have been so successful all along that they have forgotten that the cruelty of this world is far beyond their imagination.

"Okay, I've said everything I need to say." The voice sounded again, with a hint of impatience in its tone, "Do you have any more questions? Do you want to give up?"

Everyone looked at each other, and saw solemnity and uneasiness in each other's eyes.

Although their hearts were filled with fear and despair, no one chose to give up.

"Senior, I'm ready!" Ye Tianming took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

I have made so many preparations just to obtain the Kunpeng inheritance.

No matter how difficult it is, he will stick to it!

Seeing this, the others also expressed their opinions: "I will never quit unless I inherit the legacy."

"Very good, it seems you are not scared yet." The voice was a little sarcastic, "In that case, let's get started."

Before anyone could react, they felt a slight vibration beneath their feet.

Looking down, they saw that the originally flat ground was now filled with square tiles, and each of them was standing on a tile.

"This is..." Everyone was stunned, not understanding what this sudden change meant.

"Don't just stand there, take a step forward, and then the show will begin." The voice was teasing, as if it was looking at a group of puppets that were about to be played with in the palm of one's hand.

Although Ye Tianming's heart was full of doubts and anxieties, he still gritted his teeth and took a step forward resolutely.

"Buzz!"

Accompanied by a slight roar, the floor tiles under Ye Tianming's feet slowly sank like an elevator.

"What's going on?" Ye Tianming's face changed slightly, and a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

However, before he could react, he was brought into endless darkness by the floor tiles.

At the same time, everyone else followed suit and stepped onto the tiles in front of them.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Bursts of roars sounded one after another, and twelve floor tiles, carrying twelve people, sank in different directions.

……

After an unknown amount of time, the floor tiles under Ye Tianming's feet finally stopped sinking.

"Finally stopped..." Ye Tianming let out a long sigh and walked down from the floor tiles.

Looking around, I saw that I was in a closed stone chamber.

The stone chamber is not big, only a dozen square meters. The walls around it are engraved with dense runes, emitting a faint light, illuminating the stone chamber.

"What is this place?" Ye Tianming frowned, his heart full of doubts.
