The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 1177 The Response of the Ancient Heritage
If Ren Shenguo hadn't been sure his ears were working properly, he would have thought the whisper he'd heard earlier was just a hallucination.

The waiter had long since gone, his back no longer visible, but Ginseng Fruit's thoughts were racing.

He didn't believe that the man was just saying it casually out of boredom.

Thinking back to the high-level talisman he had casually given away as an apology, the ginseng fruit seemed to understand a little better...

Heaven knows if he sent out those talismans simply to show off his wealth.

Especially since he was using Yun Ran's identity, this move was to let everyone know that Yun Ran was very generous and not someone to be trifled with...

Unexpectedly, I received an extra reward.

Renshenguo lowered his eyelids, not letting anyone see the turbulent emotions in his eyes.

That person's reminder coincided with Yunran's previous suspicions, indicating that this so-called selection competition really was problematic.

This secret is known to only a very few people.

Ironically, back then, Old Kang had given Yunran the invitation with such solemnity.

The saying "To be old and not die is to be a thief" is absolutely true!
After suppressing his emotions, Ginseng Fruit raised his head again, his gaze fixed on the high platform, where the upper echelons of Moonflower City were located.

Old Kang, who sent the invitation to Yunran, was also among them.

The ginseng fruit, with Yun Ran's face on its back, looked over there with a somewhat cold gaze, only because the conditions did not allow it, for fear of disrupting the host's plans.

Otherwise, Ginseng Fruit would want to take out weapons from its armory and blast the high platform on the other side!

Hearing the urging voices in his ears, Ginseng Fruit lifted his foot and headed towards the competition center.

But in his heart he was thinking: Old bastards, I'll settle the score with you later!

As soon as Ginseng Fruit stepped into the competition center, a powerful pressure directly assaulted his body.

His body, which should have been incredibly light, now felt as if he had fallen into the gravity training room he had once been in.

Every step, every movement, was incredibly difficult.

Immediately afterwards, a beam of light enveloped them all, and a domineering restriction rule directly entered their consciousness.

Most of the people who entered this competition center were selected geniuses.

However, very few people can withstand both the pressure and the restrictions at the same time.

Apart from the ginseng fruit, everyone else immediately fainted.

Ginseng fruit: ...

Now he seemed to understand why the waiter had told him not to win; it turned out there really was a huge trap here.

However, the waiter did not know that this so-called preliminary selection was not a competition at all, but a test.

The test determines whether the people sent up are qualified to proceed to the next round of selection.

The oppressive aura was meant to limit their abilities, while the restriction cut off the possibility of the message being transmitted from the source.

That kind of restriction is probably the most powerful type of restriction besides the Heavenly Dao restriction on Xuan Chu's body and the restriction of Qingfeng Temple.

There is no other way but to comply.

Even if someone is under the restrictions here and is truly fearless, they still cannot send a message to their family or sect.

This restriction was struck directly into the soul; even death cannot prevent it. No wonder that for so many years, not a single bad word about this so-called selection competition has ever circulated.

Just as Ginseng Fruit was thinking about whether to follow the crowd and pretend to faint,

A sudden buzzing sound rang out abruptly.

Ginseng Fruit was startled by this small change. In the past, he might have revealed his weakness due to panic.

But he has been a man for a long time, and he has been by Yunran's side for so many years.

He didn't learn anything else, but he mastered the skill of remaining calm and composed in troublesome and dangerous situations.

When the buzzing sound started, the reactions of people outside the competition center were completely different.

What they can see is completely different from what the ginseng fruit inside is like.

Sitting on the high platform, the high-ranking officials of Moonflower City all stood up in disarray.

So many years have passed, they've almost forgotten the real purpose of holding this so-called selection banquet, treating it merely as an unchangeable tradition.

As for how many people will die or how many Xuan Master geniuses will be lost, what does that have to do with them? Anyway, they have already given enough compensation.

But at this moment, the strange occurrence in the center of the venue awakened a secret passed down from their ancestors deep in their memories.

As the buzzing sound rang out, a colorful beam of light scattered across the sky, seemingly welcoming something.

Historically, such anomalies only occur when a great treasure is discovered or an extraordinary secret of inheritance is unlocked.

This astonishing level is comparable to the sensation caused when Erdan hatched.

Erdan, who was grazing, heard the response from the ancient tradition and the colorful light descending from the horizon.

The grass in his mouth fell to the ground.

It looked in astonishment at the center of the competition. Almost instantly, Erdan confirmed that the light was cast for 'Yunran'.

As a vessel capable of integrating a portion of the Heavenly Dao's origin, Erdan can sense many, many things.

For example, this response from an unknown ancient tradition could very well bring enormous trouble to 'Yunran'.

Without a second thought, Erdan stood up and abandoned the grass that it had just regarded as its life's greatest love.

He took off and charged straight towards the competition center.

Although it felt that Yunran sometimes interfered too much, it wished it could peck Yunran a few times.

However, it couldn't just stand by and watch 'Yunran' be outmaneuvered!
Before anyone else could react, they saw a blur of motion rushing toward the competition center.

In the blink of an eye, Erdan rushed in right under everyone's noses, and those people didn't even have time to react, let alone stop him.

Those on the high platform, upon witnessing this scene, were instantly filled with rage and fury.

Finally, they found the person who could elicit a response from the inheritance, but their minds were completely blank, like mush.

Immediately, someone rushed out to cause trouble. Isn't this a blatant slap in their face?
"Outrageous! Outrageous! How can there be such a disrespectful person during the selection process!"

Erdan's figure was so fast that those people on the high platform in the distance didn't even see whether the person rushing over was human or not.

However, what alarmed them even more was that the competition, which was proceeding normally, simply couldn't be stopped, not to mention that someone could break in halfway through...
