My Mysterious Left Hand

Chapter 150 Someone has passed the Inheritance Ladder?

Apart from the outermost layer of wild forest, the other multiple layers of space were filled with skeletons.

The endless skeletons, it's impossible to know how many lives were accumulated within them.

Li Chen did not disturb the furry little beast and the other king-level and emperor-level guardians.

He looked at one of the mezzanine spaces, took a step, and went straight inside.

Here, deathly silence is the eternal theme.

The gray-white bone forest stretched endlessly, like solidified, pale waves, exuding an ancient, chilling, and decaying aura.

The dense death energy almost solidified into a gray mist, flowing between the gaps in the massive skeleton.

This is a forbidden zone for life, yet it is also the sacred ground for a special being.

Deepest part of the forbidden area—

A pyramid-shaped temple, constructed from the skeletons of countless enormous, unidentified creatures, stands majestically.

The temple exuded an ancient, majestic, and eerie aura.

The aura blended perfectly with the deathly atmosphere of the Bone Forbidden Land, yet it also subtly revealed a supreme will that suppressed all death and ruled over the dead.

Interesting—I thought I understood everything about this forbidden area, but it turns out I was just being arrogant.

Li Chen was amazed, then looked at the temple entrance at the end.

In the dim shadows at the temple entrance, a slender figure sat quietly cross-legged.

She wore a plain white dress that matched the surrounding skeletons, and her face was beautiful yet exuded an indescribable nobility, like a queen who had suppressed all ages.

It was Xin Zhirou.

Her aura was calm and serene, resonating subtly with the pulse of the entire Bone Forbidden Land and the temple itself.

The rich energy of death, like a gentle stream, surrounded her and seeped into her body in strands.

She has officially become the successor of the Void Temple.

"The Law of Death?"

Li Chen's figure silently materialized on the open ground in front of the temple entrance.

His appearance did not stir up even a ripple of death in the Bone Forest, as if he had always been there.

Xin Zhirou suddenly opened her tightly closed eyes.

Upon seeing Li Chen, she immediately stood up in surprise and bowed deeply to him: "Teacher Li Chen—"

"The inheritance of the Void Temple even includes ready-made laws; it seems we've gained quite a bit."

Li Chen commented, "It's passable."

"It's all thanks to the opportunity bestowed by my teacher."

Xin Zhirou quickly lowered her head in response.

Because she didn't need to transcend the Moon Spring Star like Yao Ruoxi, the Fragrance Daughter, to break through, and she also received the inheritance of the Void Temple—

Therefore, she is now at the first level of the Emperor realm, the same level as Li Chen.

However, she was very clear about her own position. If Li Chen hadn't sent her here in the first place, she would never have been able to obtain such good fortune.

In particular, she was shocked to discover that although she was already at the Emperor level, when she faced Li Chen again, she felt that Li Chen was like a sea of ​​stars, terrifying and vast.

Even she felt inexplicably afraid to look directly at or spy on them.

Li Chen didn't say much. He raised his right hand, his five fingers spread wide.

Above his palm, space distorted slightly, and five strange lights suddenly shone.

Gold, cyan, blue, red, and yellow—five colors flowed around.

They are not clearly distinct, but rather intertwined and intertwined, exuding a primordial aura of chaos yet containing the profound principles of the five elements' mutual generation and restraint.

Five fingernail-sized, neither gold nor jade, hazy runes floated silently.

"Your current achievements are not bad, but your foundation is the Five Elements Sacred Body. Don't put the cart before the horse. This is for you."

Li Chen flicked his finger.

The five talismans transformed into five streams of light, precisely entering Xin Zhirou's brow and disappearing instantly.

Xin Zhirou's delicate body trembled slightly.

The next moment, she felt an indescribable, vast yet gentle force surge into her sea of ​​consciousness, creating a strange resonance with her soul core, which was soaked in death energy.

The five runes did not directly bring a powerful energy impact, but they seemed to have planted five "seeds" deep in her soul.

.

A nascent form of authority, originating from the very source of the world and governing matter and energy, began to sprout in her heart.

She could clearly "see" that these five runes and her Five Elements Sacred Body subtly formed a higher level of balance and transformation.

The boundary between life and death seems to become blurred and can be crossed in the face of the harmonizing and transforming power of the Five Elements.

"Teacher, these runes—"

Xin Zhirou's eyes were filled with shock and confusion. She could sense the preciousness and power of the five runes, but she did not know their specific uses.

"The Five Elements are the origin of all things, and their mutual generation and restraint cycle can also govern the changes of life and death."

Li Chen said calmly, "Take your time to contemplate it more; perhaps it can help you connect with the deeper power of this temple, and even—"

It touched the edge of life and death.

He paused, then used his Time-Space Divine Eye to look at the past of the Bone Forbidden Land, a strange look flashing in his eyes.

"The Void Temple—it seems that it once perished here with a force called the Temple of Death. That Human Emperor probably got lucky back then."

Li Chen said, "The Death Law inheritance you obtained before should not be the fundamental inheritance of the Void Temple. The fundamental inheritance of the Void Temple should be the Void Law, which is the creation deep within the temple."

Xin Zhirou was deeply shaken.

How to communicate with the deeper power of the temple?

Touching upon the transformation between life and death?

She immediately understood the value of the five runes.

This was by no means a simple gift, but rather a path pointed out to her on a higher peak.

She bowed deeply again, expressing her heartfelt gratitude: "Zhirou thanks you for your great kindness, Teacher!"

Li Chen nodded slightly.

Without lingering, he remained motionless, yet the surrounding space rippled once more like water, his figure rapidly fading as he prepared to depart.

However, just as his figure was about to completely disappear into the desolate space of the Forbidden Land of Bones, a "whoosh!"

A subtle yet exceptionally clear ripple of law, like a pebble thrown into an ancient well, instantly pierced through the barriers of endless time and space, precisely reaching Li Chen's mind!

The source of these ripples clearly points to Gu Xuan Star in the normal space outside.

To be precise, it refers to Pingshan City.

Above Pingshan City, at the end of the ninety-nine-layered white jade inheritance staircase he had personally laid out, lies a deep, all-consuming teleportation black hole.

Li Chen's figure, which was about to fade away completely, suddenly froze for a moment, and a pure look of surprise flashed in his deep, star-like eyes.

Has someone successfully climbed the ladder of inheritance?

Above Pingshan City.

The white jade staircase that has stood for over a decade has long been one of the most striking landmarks in the city and even the entire Gu Xuan Star.

At this moment, the plaza below the steps was already packed with people, with countless cultivators craning their necks and their eyes fixed intently on the top of the steps.

Just now, a dazzling beam of light shot up from the ninety-ninth step and pierced the sky!

The radiance carried an indescribable aura of creation, seemingly originating from the very source of life.

Although faint, it stirred a deep longing within the souls of all the cultivators who sensed it.

Immediately afterwards, the deep black hole hanging at the end of the stairs, which seemed capable of swallowing everything, suddenly began to fluctuate violently.

Visible ripples, distorting light and space, spread rapidly outwards from the black hole in all directions!

"It's done! Someone made it through!"

"My God! Ten years! Someone has finally succeeded?!"

'

"Who is it? Which family's prodigy?"

"Look! That black hole is moving! It's drawing in!"

The crowd below erupted in chaos.
