Perfect World: I Am Eternal

Chapter 417 Shout
Inside the palace, the light was dazzling and the mist was thick, a manifestation of the essence of heaven and earth being so rich that it could not be dissolved.

At the same time, the divine voice of the Great Dao resounds here, making people tremble and their souls resonate with it.

Everyone awoke with a start and looked around the palace, which was covered with symbols. These were the insights of the Life Fairy, not specific laws.

However, this makes it even more precious, as the cultivation insights of a true immortal are extremely rare.

"This is a selection of disciples and people. Whoever can better resonate with these insights will receive the final inheritance!" someone whispered, having seen through the situation.

Or you could say it's a test; only those who are compatible with that female immortal can obtain the seed of immortality.

"Quickly, sit down and meditate to comprehend it!"

In an instant, everyone's eyes were burning with desire, and not one of them didn't want to obtain the true immortal's inheritance, as it was related to the grand event.

Lin Fan, Lan Xian, Ning Fei, and other young supreme beings who possess three strands of immortal energy already knew the reason and sat cross-legged listening to the divine sound of the Great Dao.

At first, they vaguely saw the surrounding plants growing, with lush foliage, as if they had fallen into a green river, full of vitality.

"Woo..."

It's so comfortable, like soaking in a hot spring, returning to the embrace of nature, making you want to hum softly.

Gradually, people became immersed in it; it wasn't so much like enlightenment as it was a transformation of life.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, it was as if something struck everyone's heart, and then the scene changed, with all the grass and trees withered, plunging into a dead land, as if they had fallen into hell.

"puff!"

Many people woke up with a start, their faces pale, coughing up large amounts of blood, their backs soaked with sweat, a truly horrifying sight.

This scene changed rapidly and was extremely terrifying, like going from a beautiful paradise to the underworld, where everything was about to perish.

It took a long time for people to calm down and come to their senses, but they were still shaken, as if they had just walked on the edge of death.

"How could this be?" a fiery-tempered woman exclaimed in alarm.

"This is the law of life. If you don't understand what life is, forcing yourself to comprehend it will only lead you to your death," someone explained.

"How could they do that?" the woman asked, pointing to the unconscious people not far away.

It was faintly visible that Lin Fan, Lan Xian, Lü Hong, and several other outstanding young talents were still in the process of enlightenment and seemed to be unaffected.

Moreover, above their heads, three flowers of the Great Dao bloomed, exuding an extremely strong life force.

They looked completely entranced, surrounded by the symbols inside the hall, their bodies glowing with a green light.

"That's because they have high comprehension and have cultivated three strands of immortal energy. They are true young supreme beings and can naturally comprehend a part of it."

Upon hearing this, many cultivators were unwilling, but there was nothing they could do. This was the difference, which could be judged by the amount of immortal energy.

Otherwise, what makes a Young Supreme? It represents the most outstanding group of beings of the same age, whether in terms of talent or ability.

In fact, some people are jealous and resentful, and want to interfere or even take the opportunity to attack and interrupt their enlightenment.

"Crack!"

As a result, a bolt of lightning struck, turning the man into a pile of charred remains, his primordial spirit shattered, and he died on the spot.

Seeing this, many people were terrified and immediately abandoned such thoughts, quietly observing and waiting for the outcome.

"puff!"

Not long after, the first prodigy with three strands of immortal energy awoke, but he too failed in the process of comprehension.

It was Yinwei who had escaped earlier, and now he was the first one to stand out!
"Tch, nothing special. He held out a little longer than us. I doubt his three strands of immortal energy are fake." Someone muttered under their breath, gloating. It's common knowledge that while there are young supreme beings with three strands of immortal energy in the world, some of them are artificially "accumulated" rather than entirely cultivated through their own efforts.

For example, some people absorb the aura contained in ancient immortal corpses, while others directly change their physical bodies with the help of powerful figures.

Of course, this era is also full of peerless heroes who cultivate immortality on their own, but it is difficult to determine which ones are genuine and which ones are fake.

Now, people can be certain of one thing: Yinwei's failure to comprehend the Dao so quickly meant that the three strands of immortal energy were mostly fake.

Yinwei was displeased. Faced with the strange looks from everyone, he felt embarrassed once again, as if his face was on fire.

In particular, when he turned his head and saw Lin Fan, who was still comprehending the Great Dao, he immediately felt unbalanced, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

"Damn it, how dare they underestimate me? You'll see what happens when we get out of here."

……

Several hours passed, and one after another, people opened their eyes, all showing expressions of regret.

"The Great Dao of the Life Immortal is indeed not so easy to comprehend." Lan Xian woke up and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

However, she wasn't too disappointed. She already had a celestial seed, so obtaining another would be the icing on the cake, and failure wouldn't matter.

Although there are only a handful of top-tier Daoist seeds in the world, each unique, the most important thing is to find one that suits you.

Because each seed represents a great path, if it clashes with the attributes of living beings, forcibly fusing with it will not necessarily yield great results.

"My God, even Ning Fei, who has the potential to be the number one person in the Heavenly God Realm, has failed. I really don't know who will inherit the throne!" someone exclaimed.

At this moment, Ning Fei was alert, showing neither joy nor sorrow, nor any sign of frustration after failure. He exuded a calmness, as if he had expected it all along.

He wasn't the only one; some other young prodigies were in a similar situation.

After all, they don't specialize in the laws of life, so it's already quite remarkable that they've managed to comprehend them to this extent.

"Even if I failed, the insights of a true immortal, which can be applied to other situations, are still very enlightening for me!" Ning Fei muttered to himself.

The others nodded in agreement, as if they had gained some insight.

Next, everyone turned their attention to the two people who were still unconscious: Lin Fan and Lü Hong!
"It's one thing for Lü Hong to be considered, after all, she is the jewel of the Longevity Family and has extraordinary talent, but what's with this person? Is his artistic conception stronger than Ning Fei and the others?"

Many people were puzzled, especially after learning that the other party came from the lower realm and had only recently been brought to the Nine Heavens by the Grand Elder of the Immortal Academy, which made them even more astonished.

"Such talent can emerge from such a barren land?!" A group of people were astonished and couldn't believe it, staring at that handsome face.

"He comes from the lower realm?" Ning Fei asked, puzzled.

“That’s right, Brother Ning, it is indeed the Three Thousand Dao State, one of the ten backward regions!” Yin Wei had a high opinion of himself and showed no disdain for the people of the ten regions.

Upon hearing this, Lan Xian's face showed displeasure, and she lightly scolded, "Shut up, Yin Wei. Haven't you learned your lesson enough?"

"Junior Sister Lanxian, you are the jewel of the Changsheng family, how can you speak up for such a lowly person and walk alongside him!"

Yinwei retorted, completely unaware that he was wrong, and was extremely jealous of Lanxian's protectiveness of Lin Fan.

Lan Xian was displeased, her eyebrows furrowing slightly. After all, they all belonged to the Immortal Academy and should have been united, but now they were fighting amongst themselves.

At the same time, she had been through life and death with Lin Fan. Although he could be infuriating at times, he always proved to be reliable in dangerous situations.

How could she remain indifferent to her friend being slandered?

Just as Lan Xian was about to reprimand someone, someone shouted a cold rebuke first.

"Are you looking down on my Holy Emperor Palace?"
