On the 60th birthday of the system, my son’s engagement was annulled!

"Xiao'er".

Lin Xiao suddenly opened his eyes; he had just heard his mother's voice!

"Mother!"

Lin Xiao was certain that it was his mother's voice.

"Xiao'er, you've really suffered all these years."

Lin Xiao looked around. He was in an unfamiliar environment, yet he couldn't sense any touch.

"What on earth is going on?!"

The pounding of my heart was deafening.

A strong sense of suffocation enveloped Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao took a deep breath and slowly sat down on the ground. His mother's voice was still echoing in his ears, but Lin Xiao's mind was as calm as still water, and he had discarded all distracting thoughts.

"Boom!"

This is still an illusion!
However, unlike the previous illusion, which was based on real touch, this one is based on real hearing.

The two different feelings almost made Lin Xiao lose himself.

When Lin Xiao opened his eyes again, he found himself standing in a vast hall with no roof, where he could see the sky directly above.

"It's truly unexpected that even a Celestial King could break in."

Lin Xiao looked into the main hall and saw a few other people, including Jian Shiyi and Zhou Wudi.

In addition, a mysterious figure shrouded in black robes and a bald monk were particularly eye-catching.

There were about ten people in total, almost all of whom were Immortal Emperor Realm experts from various major forces.

"It seems that only the seventeen of us made it through; the others must have been eliminated."

Zhan Kong stood up and said calmly.

"Hehe, I didn't expect something like this to happen again. A Celestial King has made it through, and he's the only Celestial King there."

Jun Wuxia, a member of the Jun family, looked at Lin Xiao with amusement in his eyes.

Both Jian Shiyi and the man in black robes couldn't help but sized up Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao felt a chill run down his spine as he was being scrutinized by more than a dozen Immortal Emperors, and he had no sense of security whatsoever.

"It's pretty good."

Sword Eleven was given a four-word evaluation.

"Young man, you possess the bearing of an immortal."

Di Pu of the Di Yuan Sect said with a smile.

Lin Xiao simply smiled faintly at this.

"Let's go, the land of inheritance is just ahead. The real test will begin when we arrive at the land of inheritance."

Zhan Kong led the way.

Jian Shiyi and the others followed behind at a leisurely pace.

Lin Xiao looked around but didn't see Luo Jiuyang. Clearly, Luo Jiuyang had been eliminated.

The Immortal Emperor is a ruler-level figure in countless universes, but here, the Immortal Emperor is just an ordinary member, who can be eliminated or perish at will.

Lin Xiao took a deep breath. He had no help at the moment and needed to be very careful.

The group of seventeen people continued to move forward in the direction north of the main hall.

"The Martial Venerable also has another title, the Northern Dipper Celestial Venerable. Everyone, to the north is naturally the Martial Venerable's main tomb. After entering the tomb, everyone must be careful and not make any noise, so as not to annoy the Martial Venerable."

Zhan Kong said as he walked.

The sixteen people following behind remained silent, not uttering a single word.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Zhan Kong and the others finally arrived outside an ancient main hall.

The main hall is not large, covering only about ten acres. For a Celestial Venerable, this main hall is incredibly small.

"What should we do now?"

Qin Feng of the Qin clan looked at Zhan Kong and asked.

"Just go straight into the hall."

Zhan Kong responded coldly. Everyone stopped and didn't move forward.

Those who have cultivated to this level are not fools.

They wouldn't do something like going up there as cannon fodder.

"You, you go scout ahead!"

Zhan Kong glanced at everyone present, noting that they were either too strong for him to beat or had even stronger backgrounds than him. Finally, he pointed directly at Lin Xiao and said...

Lin Xiao's gaze darkened. He hadn't expected that he, a Celestial King, would become a pawn in the scouting game of these Celestial Emperors.

No matter where you are, lacking strength and connections is the original sin.

"Heh, Zhan Kong, bullying the weak with your superior strength, that's your style."

Jun Wuxia looked at Zhan Kong with disdain and said.

"That is incorrect!" Qin Feng of the Qin clan stepped forward.

"This child was able to break through to the final level at the Immortal King realm, so he must have courage and resourcefulness. He definitely has qualities that we don't have. Letting him go ahead to explore is the best way. If he is in danger, we Immortal Emperors can come to his rescue immediately."

Lin Xiao couldn't help but sneer inwardly as he listened to Qin Feng's words. He had said all the nice things, and in such a high-sounding way, it was utterly disgusting.

"Kid, go scout ahead!"

Zhan Kong looked at Lin Xiao and said coldly.

The other powerful immortal emperors were also eyeing Lin Xiao with covetous intent.

Sacrificing a Celestial King to pave the way for them is extremely worthwhile.

Jian Shiyi crossed his arms and remained silent, while the man in black robes stood quietly by as an observer.

Zhou Wudi watched coldly, regarding human life as worthless.

Lin Xiao was helpless. He was just a Celestial King, and even with the Four Symbols Sacred Body and the Eight Immortal Towers, he couldn't possibly defeat anyone present. He could only helplessly move forward.
Lin Xiao slowly walked to the front of the hall. Outside the hall were carved four beasts, not the four divine beasts, but the four ferocious beasts.

Taotie, Qiongqi, Chaos, Taotie.

These four ferocious beasts correspond exactly to the four divine beasts within Lin Xiao's body.

Lin Xiao took a deep breath, stepped into the palace entrance, placed his hands on the door, and pushed it hard.

The crowd outside the hall was extremely tense watching this scene. They all stared intently at Lin Xiao, wondering if he would fall into another trap.

Jian Shiyi suddenly rushed forward.

Seeing this, the other dozen or so people didn't care about anything else and immediately followed behind Jian Shiyi.

Jian Shiyi arrived outside the palace gate, grabbed Lin Xiao, and rushed into the palace.

"Does this Sword Eleven know that Immortal King brat?"

"Why do I get the feeling that Sword Eleven seems worried about that Immortal King kid?"

The dozen or so people witnessed Jian Shiyi's actions.

The man in black robes looked at Jian Shiyi with some confusion, but didn't say anything more.

Jian Shiyi grabbed Lin Xiao and entered the main hall. The hall was very ancient and simple, with many strange statues on display.

“Passing down the tradition cannot be guaranteed, but there is an opportunity within it that you value, and I can help you with that.”

Jian Shiyi didn't look at Lin Xiao, but Lin Xiao knew that Jian Shiyi was talking to him.

"why?"

Lin Xiao was puzzled as to why Jian Shiyi was being so kind to him.

“I think you look like an old friend of mine, very much so. Plus, you also use a sword, and your abilities are very similar to his, so I’m helping you out.”

Sword Eleven didn't explain much.

Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly, looked at the Heavenly Sword in his body, and remembered Lin Xuan who was still unconscious in the Eight Immortal Tower. Lin Xiao clenched his fist slightly.

“Senior Sword Emperor, I don’t need any opportunities, and I have no desire for the inheritance. I only need one thing.”

"what?"

"Martial Lord's body!"

Upon hearing this, even the usually calm Jian Shiyi couldn't help but look at Lin Xiao with curiosity.

Others ask for treasures and opportunities, but this kid actually wants a corpse. (End of Chapter)
