Qinghe Immortal Clan.

Feeling a surge of spiritual energy enter his body, Song Qingming dared not obstruct the other party and stood motionless in place.

A moment later, "Xuantian" quickly lowered the finger from his forehead and looked at the person in front of him again with some doubt.

"Back then, I carefully selected at least a hundred Nascent Soul cultivators to come here to be taught cultivation techniques. These people can almost all be considered rare talents of our time!"
Even so, most of them still couldn't cultivate this technique to the Nascent Soul stage in their entire lives.

There are probably fewer than a handful of people like you who can cultivate the Heavenly Myriad Spirits Technique to the Golden Core Perfection within three hundred years.

To be honest, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes and known that your spiritual root talent was mediocre, I would have found it hard to believe that a pseudo-spiritual root cultivator like you could be stronger than them.

Seeing the look of surprise on Xuan Tian's face, Song Qingming remained calm and smiled as he replied:
"I remember when I first went up the mountain to cultivate, my elders often taught me that there are bound to be differences in spiritual roots and talents among cultivators."

However, as long as one's resolve is firm, even if one's personal talent is somewhat lacking, there is still hope of achieving the Great Dao.

However, I've been able to cultivate so quickly all these years thanks to the bottle of spiritual liquid my senior gave me. If it weren't for improving my physique, I probably wouldn't be able to cultivate the Heavenly Myriad Spirits Technique to perfection by now.

After inheriting the Tongtian Wanling Technique from Xuantian, Song Qingming deeply felt how difficult it was to cultivate this technique.

Although he spoke lightly, Song Qingming was well aware of the difficulties he had faced in cultivating his skills over the years.

If it weren't for the many opportunities that helped me cultivate my techniques, plus the incomplete map I had with me that saved me a lot of cultivation time...

If it were any other ordinary Golden Core cultivator, they probably wouldn't even be able to cross the Golden Core stage of the "Heaven-Reaching Myriad Spirits Technique," let alone perfect it.

Moreover, in order to cultivate the "Heavenly Myriad Spirits Technique" over the years, Song Qingming has spent at least hundreds of thousands of spirit stones just on the spiritual objects he uses to train his physical body.

The achievements that have surprised even "Xuantian" today are by no means something that can be accomplished simply by having a firm Dao heart.

Hearing Song Qingming's humble words, "Xuan Tian" showed a hint of relief on his face and nodded with a smile.

"Young friend Song, I must say that you have quite the talent for cultivating this technique. Perhaps you really have a chance to unlock the legacy left behind by the master here."

However, the cultivation techniques for the Nascent Soul stage are not so easy to master. Whether you succeed or not depends on your performance in the future. So don't let me praise you a few times and make you slack off in your cultivation.

"Senior, rest assured. After so many years of cultivation, I have long understood the difficulty of the Great Dao. Even without your reminder, I would never dare to underestimate the path ahead."

"Alright! Now that you have fulfilled your promise to me and cultivated to the Nascent Soul realm, I will now pass on the remaining Nascent Soul cultivation techniques to you."

After Xuan Tian finished speaking, he immediately raised his hand and shot out a beam of spiritual light, which directly entered Song Qingming's sea of ​​consciousness and enveloped the "Tongtian Wanling Jue" in his body.

Soon, Song Qingming felt that the cultivation technique within his body had gained a lot of new content, which was exactly the cultivation formula he needed to practice in the Nascent Soul stage.

After completing all this, "Xuan Tian" nodded slightly in satisfaction and continued:

"Alright, I have passed on the rest of the cultivation method to you as agreed. As long as you can cultivate it to the late Nascent Soul stage, you can enter this painting and receive all of the master's inheritance."

Young friend, you've already been here before, so according to the rules left by the master, I can't bestow any more cultivation techniques upon you.

If there are no other problems, I'll see you out now.

"Uh, please wait a moment, senior."

Seeing that "Xuantian" was about to begin casting a spell, Song Qingming, who had just recovered from his sea of ​​consciousness, quickly waved his hand to stop him.

Song Qingming immediately stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and asked, "Senior Xuantian, I have a few more questions I would like to ask you. I apologize for taking up your time."

"It's alright! Just ask me whatever you want to know. I will naturally not hide anything from you that I can tell you."

"Senior, when I was outside, I heard that cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage are not allowed to enter the Tongtian Pavilion. Is this true?"

"If, three hundred years from now, I have truly cultivated to the late Nascent Soul stage, how will I then come to see you?"

Upon hearing Song Qingming's question, "Xuan Tian" first nodded slightly, then immediately replied:
"The information you heard is correct. Although there are no restrictions on the lower eight levels of the Tower of Babel, the barrier leading to the ninth level will directly isolate late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators."

This is a rule established by the master back then, which forbids late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators from entering the "Tongtian Pavilion" to compete for spiritual items.

But don't worry, as long as you can enter the Tower of Babel, I will have a way to sense your presence and bring you here.

However, you might not be able to enter the lower two floors then, since I cannot disobey the rules set by the master.”

Previously, when he heard outside that late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators could not use the "Heavenly Token" to enter the Heavenly Pavilion, Song Qingming was always worried that if his cultivation progressed too quickly in the future, he might not be able to enter.

Only after receiving a positive reply from "Xuantian" did he finally feel completely relieved and no longer need to worry about the problem, which brought him a sense of relief.

Song Qingming didn't find it too strange that the "Tongtian Pavilion" restricted entry to cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage.

After all, the purpose of the "Tongtian Pavilion" is to attract many talented cultivators to come and inherit the legacy left by the master of the "Tongtian Tower".

Otherwise, with the supernatural powers of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, if those experts were really allowed in, how would Song Qingming and his group have the chance to come in and snatch spiritual treasures?

If he can break through to the "late stage of Nascent Soul" in three hundred years, then the treasures in the "Tongtian Pavilion" will not be of much use to Song Qingming.

This limitation did not have a significant impact on Song Qingming.

After nodding slightly to "Xuantian", Song Qingming continued to ask, "Senior, I have another question I would like to ask you."

"You've issued so many Heavenly Decrees this time, have you found other successors? I'd like to ask if I'll have to undergo other trials if I enter with him?"

Decades ago, after discovering so many Heavenly Decrees appearing in the "Floating Cloud Mountains," Song Qingming already knew that "Xuantian" must be secretly behind it.

By issuing so many "Heavenly Decrees" to attract twice as many Nascent Soul cultivators into the "Heavenly Pavilion," Xuan Tian's purpose is self-evident.

Anyone with a modicum of intelligence like Song Qingming could basically see through it.

As expected, after Song Qingming raised his question, "Xuantian" paused for a moment before nodding in agreement.

"Yes! There are some things that you should be able to guess even if I don't say them, so I won't hide them from you."

However, due to the rules for entering this place, I must ensure your safety and the safety of the other chosen inheritors. That's all I can say to you. Please don't ask any more questions.

According to the agreement left by the original owner, whoever inherits the legacy can enter the inheritance site and obtain what he left inside, as long as they meet the requirements.

If two people actually fulfill their promise at the same time, then it depends on who can see me first. No matter who enters the eighth floor of the Tower of Babel first, I will receive the other person and enter this place first.

Don't worry, the situation you're worried about is almost impossible.

Even if this were to happen, I would certainly handle the situation fairly and would not deliberately make things difficult for you.

Having spent so much time in the Tower of Babel, Xuan Tian had already seen far too many exceptionally talented individuals in the cultivation world.

Even though Song Qingming had shown such rapid cultivation talent, in his eyes, the possibility of cultivating the "Heavenly Myriad Spirits Technique" to the late Nascent Soul stage was extremely slim.

The same applies to the other selected individuals.

Over the years, no one has been able to fulfill this promise successfully, let alone two people doing it at the same time.

Song Qingming's worries were also unnecessary in his eyes.

Based on Xuan Tian's answer, Song Qingming has at least confirmed that the other party must have selected other people besides him to inherit the cultivation techniques.

However, there were at least thirty or forty Nascent Soul cultivators who entered this time.

Since the other party couldn't tell him directly, Song Qingming had no idea who the other successors chosen by "Xuantian" would be, or how many people had received this opportunity.

In the world of cultivation, there are many people whose cultivation talent surpasses that of others. No one can guarantee whether the person chosen by "Xuantian" will be able to fulfill this agreement three hundred years later.

Although the possibility he was worried about was theoretically almost impossible, he still chose to ask and confirm the matter, as he was always cautious.

For Song Qingming, it's just a matter of saying something in person; there won't be any other losses.

If he were to encounter such a situation without realizing it, it would be too late for him to regret not asking beforehand.

After answering Song Qingming's question and seeing that the other party did not continue to ask, "Xuan Tian" spoke again: "I have already given you the answers you needed to give, young friend. Now I will send you away from here."

I hope that young friend Song will live up to your expectations and fulfill this promise as soon as possible, so that I can give my master an explanation sooner.

"Senior, please wait a moment, I have something else to attend to!"

Faced with "Xuantian" who had already raised his hand to cast a spell, Song Qingming once again waved his hand to interrupt him.

Then, under the other party's questioning gaze, he quickly cast a spell and took out a large number of carefully wrapped spiritual items from the "storage bag" at his waist.

"What are you doing?"

"Hehe! When I met you last time, I noticed that you seemed to enjoy tea, so I brought some spiritual tea with me this time."

"These things are just a small token of my appreciation, and I have no other intentions. I hope Senior Xuantian won't find them offensive." After Song Qingming explained the items in his hands with a smile, "Xuantian" didn't say anything more. With a flick of his magic power, he continued to open the scroll that had sent him away.

A short while later, after Song Qingming confirmed the direction to leave, "Xuantian" slightly moved his magic power, and a white light flew out from the scroll, engulfing Song Qingming and a ball of green light next to him.

After the aura on the scroll disappeared, "Xuantian" turned around and looked at the packages of various sizes on the table next to him.

"This kid is quite observant; no wonder he has such a fortunate opportunity!"

"To be able to form a nascent soul with only four pseudo-spiritual roots is the first time I've seen this in so many years. I wonder if he really has the ability to fulfill this promise."

".."

After muttering something to himself while standing aside, "Xuan Tian" waved his hand again, and the package that Song Qingming had just taken out of the table quickly disappeared.

The next moment, his gaze turned to the ever-changing panorama high in the sky.
-
In a secret room on the first floor of the "Tongtian Pavilion", Chen Xuanxin, who had just passed the test and been teleported there, looked around and realized that he was in a special space filled with white light.

Having successfully passed the "Tongtian Pavilion" trial once before, Chen Xuanxin never expected that the situation he would encounter on his second attempt would be so different.

Although Chen Xuanxin managed to pass the trial by relying on his experience, it took him much longer this time than before.

"I didn't expect this person to be so old and unlucky. After such a long delay, I don't know if he still has a chance to compete for the final treasure."

After the dizziness gradually subsided, Chen Xuanxin stood still to calm herself down, and then immediately stepped forward and opened the door to the secret room.

Unexpectedly, just as Chen Xuanxin stepped out of the secret room, he heard the sounds of fighting coming from the passage ahead, and an excited look immediately appeared on his face.

I thought that since I had passed the trial so late, the treasures stored in front of the passage should have been taken by others long ago, just like last time. But I didn't expect that there were still cultivators fighting in front of me.

After concealing his aura with a spell, Chen Xuanxin immediately released his natal flying sword and quietly moved closer.

"It's Junior Sister Xu and Junior Brother Fang!"

Halfway there, Chen Xuanxin sensed two familiar auras in the passage in front of him with his divine sense and immediately cast a spell to quickly move closer.

In the passage ahead, Xu Ziyan and Fang Baixuan, wielding magical artifacts, along with two other human Golden Core cultivators, faced a combined attack from five demon kings and two demonic cultivators.

Although Xu Ziyan and her group were all powerful late-stage Golden Core cultivators, their opponents were not much weaker and outnumbered them by nearly double, still managing to trap them firmly within their territory.

Seeing that Xu Ziyan and the others were in a bad situation, with several of them already injured, Chen Xuanxin did not hesitate and immediately controlled his flying sword to rush over and join the battle. With one sword strike, he repelled a late-stage Golden Core demon king who was blocking his way.

"Senior Brother Chen, it's you!"

Seeing that it was their fellow disciple Chen Xuanxin who had come to help, Xu Ziyan and the others, who had been struggling for so long and had finally received reinforcements, immediately showed a look of joy on their faces.

Although Chen Xuanxin was already 560 years old, he had reached a point where his qi and blood were declining and his strength was beginning to decline.

However, as a veteran cultivator who had reached the peak of the Golden Core realm for two hundred years and had twice attempted to break through the Nascent Soul bottleneck, Chen Xuanxin's cultivation and combat experience far surpassed those of ordinary late-stage Golden Core cultivators.

Moreover, having cultivated the path of swordsmanship, his combat strength surpasses that of other cultivators of the same level.

Upon joining the battle, Chen Xuanxin immediately held off three late-stage Golden Core cultivators, helping Xu Ziyan and the others quickly stabilize the unfavorable situation.

After fighting for a while in the passage, seeing that they could not defeat each other, the two powerful Golden Core demon cultivators suddenly began to sacrifice their life essence to summon five or six powerful black-armored demons.

These black-armored demons were all at least at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, and they fought desperately to attack. The original balance of power was gradually broken by the enemy, and the situation became increasingly unfavorable.

Seeing this, Xu Ziyan, who already had many injuries, looked even more distressed.

"Senior Brother Chen, this kind of fighting isn't going to work. We need to rush out of here as soon as possible."

"These are the spiritual items we just snatched in the passage. Senior brother, you take them first, let's figure out a way to get out together."

After Xu Ziyan finished speaking, she took a storage bag from her waist and threw it to Chen Xuanxin, who was standing to the side.

The people present, including her, are all injured and have exhausted most of their magical power. It is extremely difficult for them to break out safely under the siege of so many experts.

Only Chen Xuanxin was in very good condition, and his cultivation level was above theirs, so he had many opportunities to escape.

After all, they had been fellow disciples for many years, and Xu Ziyan trusted Chen Xuanxin completely. After speaking, she wanted to entrust the treasure she had just acquired to him.

Thinking that if something were to happen to them, the treasures wouldn't fall into the hands of the demons and demonic cultivators in front of them.

Upon hearing that Xu Ziyan and her group had been the first to seize the treasures in the passage, Chen Xuanxin's face lit up with joy, but he did not choose to accept the "storage bag" in front of him.

"Junior Sister Xu, why bother? Today, with me, Chen Xuanxin, here, it won't be so easy for them to snatch food from the tiger's mouth."

As soon as Chen Xuanxin finished speaking, his natal flying sword released dozens of sharp sword lights, directly forcing back the several demon kings in front of him.

Having forced his opponent back, Chen Xuanxin waved his hand and took out another golden talisman, sticking it to his chest.

The next moment, a golden light instantly covered his body, turning Chen Xuanxin's entire body into a golden color.

Next, Chen Xuanxin, standing in the golden light, began to rise in aura, and his appearance seemed to become several years younger.

"Golden Light Spirit Transformation Talisman, Senior Brother Chen, you are amazing!"

Both being Golden Core cultivators who had cultivated for many years, Xu Ziyan naturally noticed the changes in Chen Xuanxin very quickly, because of the golden talisman on his chest.

This "Golden Light Spirit Transformation Talisman" is a low-grade fourth-level talisman that can rapidly increase the mana of a late-stage Golden Core cultivator in a short period of time, helping them to improve their strength considerably.

However, such talismans that can quickly enhance strength also have many side effects, and will also damage a lot of the cultivator's vital energy after the cultivator uses them.

Especially now that Chen Xuanxin's health and blood are declining, forcibly using the "Golden Light Spirit Transformation Talisman" to enhance his strength and fight with others may even shorten his already limited lifespan.

Seeing Chen Xuanxin so decisively use the talisman he had been using as a trump card, Xu Ziyan and the others beside him were surprised, but a hint of worry flashed in their eyes as well.

However, bathed in golden spiritual light, Chen Xuanxin showed no regret for using the talisman; instead, she wore a slightly excited smile.

Since his lifespan was insufficient and his qi and blood began to decline, Chen Xuanxin could feel his cultivation strength decreasing little by little almost every day.

At this moment, bathed in golden light, he felt an inexhaustible power coursing through his body, a feeling he hadn't experienced in a long time.

"I've had such a good fight today, so I'll show you my true strength!"

As soon as Chen Xuanxin finished speaking, he quickly cast a spell with both hands, and a golden giant sword several meters long materialized in front of him. Then, he slashed at the two Golden Core demon cultivators not far away.

When the two Golden Core demon cultivators noticed the changes in Chen Xuanxin, they already sensed a dangerous aura emanating from him.

Seeing that Chen Xuanxin had suddenly set his sights on them, one of the demonic cultivators immediately controlled two demonic creatures beside him to charge at the other.

Unexpectedly, the two demonic creatures, which were originally as hard as iron, were instantly cleaved in two by the "golden giant sword" in Chen Xuanxin's hand the moment they came into contact with it.

"what!"

With this sword strike, Chen Xuanxin not only killed two Golden Core demons, but also sent the Golden Core demon cultivator behind them flying backward, letting out a shrill scream in mid-air.

Another Golden Core demon cultivator beside him noticed something was wrong in time and barely managed to avoid the sword light at the last moment.

Seeing that Chen Xuanxin's strength had suddenly become so astonishing, the demonic cultivators who were besieging the group and several demon kings nearby were also startled and immediately retreated.

"Junior Sister Xu, let's go!"

Seeing a slight opening in the enemy's formation, Chen Xuanxin immediately reminded Xu Ziyan and the others beside him, leading them to break through the encirclement and head straight for the exit of the passage.

After unleashing the "Golden Light Spirit Transformation Talisman," although it greatly boosted his strength, Chen Xuanxin found it difficult to maintain this peak state for an extended period.

His attack had already consumed a lot of his magic power. As the spiritual energy above the talisman gradually dissipated, his strength would also decrease and return to its original state.

Once the side effects of the talisman appear, and his mana is completely depleted, he will have no power to stop these late-stage Golden Core demon kings in front of him.

"Oh no! They've escaped! After them!"

Seeing that Chen Xuanxin had forced everyone back with a single sword strike, he turned around and led Xu Ziyan and the others to break through the encirclement. The demon kings who had come to their senses quickly gave chase.

Just as Chen Xuanxin and the others were about to rush into the teleportation array ahead, the pursuing demon kings immediately joined forces to cast spells and release several beams of spiritual light, heading straight for the location of the "teleportation array".

"You think you can just leave so easily?"

Seeing this, Chen Xuanxin and Xu Ziyan, who were at the forefront, immediately turned around and cast spells, blocking all the attacks from the demon kings.

"Junior Sister Xu, you all go first, I'll cover the rear!" (End of Chapter)
