I cultivate immortality through The Sims.

[You know, this is a Golden Core cultivator risking the lives of rogue cultivators to test whether it's even possible to fly across.]

This made Wan Zi feel extremely threatened, and she followed closely behind you, wary of all the Golden Core cultivators present.

As expected, the Golden Core cultivator spoke up: "We really can't fly there directly."

You ignored him, but he's already on your list.

You walked alone to the large stone tablet by the pond, carefully savoring the lines of poetry.

The other Golden Core cultivators, however, went to each of the twenty-four bridges and examined the inscriptions on the stone tablets of each bridge.

After examining the inscription, Chen Haiquan immediately said, "The inscription on this stone tablet is complex; the method to cross the bridge must be hidden within it."

[Another Golden Core cultivator, observing the varying shapes of the bridges, remarked: "These twenty-four bridges are all different shapes; perhaps some kind of formation exists within them."]

After a long while, you suddenly realized what was happening and turned to look at the water.

As you might have guessed, only three of the twenty-four bridges are reflected in the water.

The first group of independent cultivators to cross the bridge did so across a bridge that had no reflection.

Although you've already guessed the outcome, you don't want to take the risk.

[Immediately, you told Wanzi your thoughts.]

After a moment of thought, Wan Zi's face suddenly lit up with realization.

[Immediately afterwards, Wan Zi spoke up: I already know which bridges are the True Bridges.]

Having said that, Wan Zi turned her gaze to the three remaining rogue cultivators: "I would trouble you, fellow Daoist, to verify this for me."

The Golden Core cultivator who stepped in to test whether one could fly immediately sneered: "Testing? People die. Aren't the lives of rogue cultivators lives too?"

[You immediately replied: "Alright then, we'll abandon the Heavenly Sword Sect's legacy. We'll just stay here and see if we can settle this here."]

The Golden Core cultivator who had spoken sarcastically instantly blushed.

He immediately walked straight towards the three-person group of independent cultivators: "Which of you comes out?"

The three independent cultivators did not want to risk their lives to verify this, and were even prepared for a fight to the death.

Another unnamed Golden Core cultivator stepped forward and stood in front of the Golden Core cultivator who had spoken, exerting pressure on the rogue cultivator.

Seeing this, Chen Haiquan also stepped towards the rogue cultivator, but remained silent.

Shen Jingshu turned to Wan Zi and said, "Tell me, which bridge is real?"

Wan Zi immediately replied: "The fifth seat."

Despite the pressure from the three Golden Core cultivators, one of the three rogue cultivators reluctantly stepped forward and crossed the fifth bridge.

[Indeed, the fifth bridge is real.]

The rogue cultivator reached the jade gate, but the stone bridge had not disappeared.

The two unidentified Golden Core cultivators were overjoyed and immediately led their respective companions across the fifth bridge.

Shen Jingshu glanced at Wan Zi, then at you, and crossed the pool without saying a word.

[You and Wanzi, along with the others, did not intend to linger and successfully crossed the pool.]

After passing through the white jade gate, you arrive at a grand hall.

The walls surrounding the main hall are carved with dragons and phoenixes, and there is a stone platform in the very center.

The aged voice rang out again: "The blood of cultivators who have maintained all five spiritual roots stained the stone platform; the next door opened automatically."

Chen Haiquan immediately pointed out that you alone possess all five spiritual roots.

Immediately, apart from Wan Zi and Shen Jing Shu, the other three Golden Core cultivators glared at you with unfriendly expressions.

Wan Zi remained fearless, protecting you tightly behind her.

Shen Jingshu then spoke up: "If you stay, you won't owe me anything anymore."

Upon seeing this, Yang Mu couldn't help but laugh in anger:

What about yours?

Staying here is just waiting to die.

I'm already dead, so what if I owe you something?

Holy crap!

I used to think that the saintess was not only beautiful and had a great figure, but was also a person who kept her promises.

And then, this is what they do to me?

Besides, what I owe you is what you specifically said.

Although I felt a little guilty, I didn't verbally accept it!

Even if we take a step back and say that, it's not certain who owes whom!

If we look at the situation at the time, I was the one who was passive, I was the one who was the victim, okay?

In that case, you're the one who owes me!

good good!

Is this how you play it?

One day!

I'll make you wish you were dead!

Having made up his mind, Yang Mu could only glare angrily at the simulation.

Upon hearing Shen Jingshu's words, Wan Zi immediately retorted: "I should have killed you with a single blow back then!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Haiquan immediately flew into a rage: "You're still protecting your lover at a time like this? Can you even protect him?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the other two Golden Core cultivators slowly approached Wan Zi.

Even though the five Foundation Establishment stage cultivators of the Myriad Flowers Sect were prepared to fight to the death.

But then you heard that aged voice: Stay.

After confirming that no one else had heard, you looked at Shen Jingshu and asked: Are you sure?

Shen Jingshu nodded immediately.

You nodded, and then said, "Okay, I'll stay."

[Wan Zi was immediately enraged: With me protecting you, let's see who dares to be the first to make a move.]

[You didn't answer, but instead transmitted your voice to Wan Zi, relaying what the aged voice had told him privately.]

[And you stated your guess: staying would allow you to obtain the Heavenly Sword Sect's inheritance.]

Otherwise, there would have been no need for that aged voice to go through all that trouble.

Wan Zi's expression shifted, but she finally nodded.

Wan Zi glared at Shen Jing Shu and said viciously, "You little bitch, I will kill you!"

Immediately, Yang Mu walked to the stone platform and slashed his palm with his sword.

In just three or four breaths, the stone platform was stained with your blood.

Sure enough, the road ahead has opened up.

The other two Golden Core cultivators looked at you leisurely, then at Shen Jingshu and Wan Zi, seemingly anticipating a good show.

Shen Jingshu's expression remained unchanged as she continued walking towards the passage.

Chen Haiquan gave a cold laugh and quickly followed Shen Jingshu.

Looking at Wan Zi, who hadn't left yet, you said, "Kill Chen Haiquan for me."

Wan Zi immediately retorted angrily: "You're still thinking about that little bitch?"

You immediately and categorically denied it, and even threatened: Chen Haiquan wants to kill me!

Wan Zi glanced at you, then said: I won't leave either of them alive.

Having said that, Wan Zi walked towards the passage without looking back.

Once everyone had left the main hall, the passageway doors slammed shut.

The moment the gate closed, the stone platform suddenly burst into a dazzling display of multicolored light.

You instinctively closed your eyes.

When you opened your eyes again, everything around you had changed.

You are currently in a grand hall.

[There is a grand armchair at the head of the main hall.]

A skeleton sat on a grand armchair.

[The aged voice rang out at the opportune moment: That skeleton is the skeleton of the former sect leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect.]

I am the guardian spirit of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

[Back then, the sect leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect suffered a qi deviation in one night and slaughtered the entire sect.]

[Only in his dying moments did he rediscover his true self.]

To ensure the continuation of the Heavenly Sword Sect, he exhausted his last bit of strength and personally buried the sect.

[To be passed down to a destined person.]

You neither agree nor disagree with the story, but you ask curiously: Why me?

The aged voice spoke with a sense of helplessness: "You are the only living cultivator with all five elemental roots."
