#222 - Mysterious inheritance
“He even knows about such a hidden place, and it's within the forbidden zone of life.”
“It seems I guessed right. This guy must be from an imperial lineage with a vast intelligence network!”
Nan Yin mused to herself, becoming increasingly curious about Su Chen's identity and origins.
“Thunder Battle Body, Demon Emperor bloodline… Not bad, not bad!”
Just then, the skeleton suddenly spoke in a human voice, and two eerie green flames lit up in its empty eye sockets.
It actually slowly stood up, and a vast and majestic aura spread out.
“Hmm!?”
Even though Qing Ling, Nan Yin, and Wei Long had already anticipated something, they were still startled and took a few steps back with vigilant expressions.
Only Su Chen and Qiao Yun remained calm, already aware of the situation here.
“You don't need to be nervous. I'm just a wisp of remnant soul and obsession, unable to harm you.”
The other party let out a faint sigh and said, “Under the erosion of the curse of the Divine Fall Mountains, this wisp of my remnant soul won't last much longer. Fortunately, I met you, and it's not in vain that I've stubbornly guarded this place for so many years.”
“This girl's Divine Phoenix Body hasn't truly awakened yet, and I was originally worried that she wouldn't be able to pass the test. However, you two have good aptitudes and are fully capable of obtaining the inheritance.”
There was a hint of relief and joy in the skeleton's words, as well as a sense of impending liberation.
“Senior, who are you?”
Nan Yin asked calmly.
“Just a dead man, my name is no longer important.”
The skeleton shook its head, its voice becoming more serious, and said, “Buried here is an earth-shattering inheritance and treasure, only those who pass the trial can obtain it, but if you fail to pass the trial, you will perish within!”
“Think it over and tell me when you're ready, and I'll open the trial for you.”
Nan Yin asked again, “Senior, what kind of opportunity is buried here exactly? Can you reveal a thing or two?”
“Cannot say, cannot say.”
The skeleton still shook its head and said, “You will naturally know after you pass the trial.”
“I can participate in the trial alone.”
Just then, Su Chen spoke.
Nan Yin and Qing Ling both frowned, feeling that the other party was too mysterious and unwilling to reveal any information, making it difficult to discern whether they were hostile.
However, recalling Su Chen's various terrifying methods, coupled with the fact that Su Chen had come here for this purpose, the two women felt much calmer.
“Okay.”
The skeleton nodded. Under the gaze of Su Chen and his group, it directly kicked the tomb next to it.
Boom!
With his kick, the tomb exploded directly, dust flying everywhere.
There was no coffin inside, only an ancient stone pagoda appeared in front of everyone.
The skeleton formed a hand seal, and the ancient pagoda instantly shone with brilliant light, flowing with strands of terrifying aura, causing the void to hum and tremble!
“This is… an Emperor Weapon!!”
Nan Yin's pupils suddenly shrank, and a huge wave arose in her heart!
Emperor Weapons were extremely rare, and generally only imperial lineages would have them, and each one was a treasure of the sect. Ordinary people didn't even have the qualifications to look at them.
Now that an Emperor Weapon had appeared in front of them, even Nan Yin found it difficult to remain calm!
The skeleton looked at the shocked expressions on Nan Yin and Qing Ling's faces and nodded with satisfaction, saying, “Whoever can pass the trial, this Emperor Weapon, as well as the treasures and opportunities stored inside, will belong to them.”
“You, are you ready?”
He stared directly into Su Chen's eyes.
Su Chen nodded calmly.
The skeleton formed another hand seal, and the ancient pagoda bloomed with blazing light, enveloping Su Chen.
With a "swoosh", Su Chen instantly disappeared from the spot and appeared in a vast and boundless world.
This ancient pagoda had its own space, containing a small world!
Buzz—
As one ray of light after another lit up, countless densely packed warriors appeared in this world.
They came from different sects and forces, men and women, old and young, and their auras were also strong and weak.
From the Transformation Dao Realm to the Quasi-Emperor!
There was even a golden-haired man standing in mid-air, with blazing laws intertwined on his body, like a scorching sun in the sky, releasing endless pressure.
The terror of that aura had far surpassed the limit of the Saint Realm!
This was a powerful Emperor Realm expert!!
But strangely, these people all had empty eyes and no life aura fluctuations on their bodies, only a powerful pressure was released.
Obviously, they were not truly living beings, but power imprints condensed by this Emperor Weapon.
“These warriors in front of you are all souls who died under this Emperor Weapon in the past. Their soul imprints were absorbed by the Emperor Weapon and summoned at this moment.”
“You need to kill all the enemies to pass the trial.”
Above this small world, a pair of indifferent and ruthless eyes lit up, staring directly at Su Chen, accompanied by a grand voice echoing.
As the voice fell, the world rumbled, and the auras of all the warriors changed.
Whether they were in the Transformation Dao Realm or the Emperor Realm, they all uniformly became Half-Saint cultivators!
Obviously, Su Chen was in the internal space of the Emperor Weapon, and the Emperor Weapon had detected his true strength. Knowing that Su Chen's Thunder Battle Body was at the minor success stage, and that he only had the ninth level of the Venerable Realm, he was actually comparable to a Half-Saint.
Therefore, the strength of the enemies was also unified to the Half-Saint cultivation level, matching Su Chen's cultivation level.
Whoosh!!
Countless warriors all raised the weapons in their hands and aimed them at Su Chen!
Looking around, the densely packed warriors were endless, at least tens of thousands!
Such a terrifying lineup, if it were any other genius, would probably have their legs trembling and be so frightened that they would lose all fighting spirit.
But Su Chen had expected this and his expression remained unchanged. He simply opened his hand, and a purple-black horizontal saber appeared.
“Kill!!”
Countless warriors roared and charged towards Su Chen, like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami, this scene was too frightening!
A lightning mark lit up on Su Chen's forehead, his head of black hair moved without wind, and lightning pierced through the sky between the opening and closing of his eyes!
Clang—
The Thousand Annihilation Blade in Su Chen's hand was unsheathed, and the blazing saber light illuminated the sky, as if the sky had exploded and lightning poured down!
That endless saber light cut through the firmament, too brilliant and terrifying!
