The sword seller, dressed in red, deserves applause for the prankster.

"Pfft."

The Spirit of the Sage's Way hadn't intended to laugh, but this time it truly couldn't hold back: "Comprehend them all? There are hundreds of thousands of books here. Even if you only flipped through one page of each book in an hour, you couldn't possibly read them all, let alone comprehend them!"

"How could the books and techniques collected by the Hidden Heaven Pavilion possibly compare to those of you lowly nobody outside?"

"Take our era for example. There was a Nascent Soul cultivator who was known as the most insightful person in the world. He was fortunate enough to enter the Hidden Heaven Pavilion once and receive a legacy, but after an hour, he only comprehended about a hundred books."

"Don't underestimate these one hundred books. These one hundred books are already the highest record besides the Pavilion Master's."

"That's why I said your idea is really unrealistic. Let alone whether your comprehension can compare to that person's, as long as you can gather about ten books, that will be enough for you. You've been the only one for a long time, so I won't be picky about you anymore. You can start anytime."

"However... since you're curious about the extra reward, I might as well tell you that he comprehended a hundred records and obtained a fragment of the Burial of Heaven Technique."

Upon hearing the words "Burial of Heaven Technique," the group perked up slightly.

The Burial of Heaven Technique and the Invincible Nascent Soul are both top-tier inheritances of the Hidden Heaven Pavilion. If I'm not mistaken... the Invincible Nascent Soul is the legendary technique that allows one to remain immortal during the Nascent Soul stage.

As for this Burial Heaven Technique... although there are no rumors of this technique in Miaohua Continent, it may be comparable to an invincible Nascent Soul cultivator, and it is definitely not ordinary!

Seemingly noticing their interested expressions, the Sage's Way Spirit spoke even more enthusiastically: "What, interested in the Burial of Heaven Technique? Let me put it this way, it's just a fragment, yet it allowed that person to become a half-immortal! Unfortunately, becoming an immortal requires a complete Dao, and someone else achieved immortality through his Dao, thus blocking his path."

"The world only knows the power of the Invincible Nascent Soul, but the Invincible Nascent Soul isn't even worthy of carrying the shoes of the Burial Heaven Technique!"

"Apart from the first Pavilion Master of the Hidden Heaven Pavilion, no one else has been able to truly comprehend the Burial Heaven Technique! What compares to the Invincible Nascent Soul is an incomplete Burial Heaven Technique! The true Burial Heaven Technique... Hmph, I've never seen it."

A man, a cow, and a bird: "..."

That's ridiculous, it made them roll their eyes.

They were initially very interested, but the more they listened, the more excited they became.

Thinking that the spirit of the sages would be holding back a big one, it turned out to be a huge mess.

"What are you talking about if I've never seen you before?"

The Sage's Way Spirit: "I'm just giving you a brief overview, so don't underestimate this extra reward. These are rules set by the first Pavilion Master. Maybe if you're skilled enough, you can even obtain fragments of these two inheritances?"

"How is it? Doesn't my soup smell amazing? As for whether you can find any meat in it... that's entirely up to yourselves, hohohoho! hohohohoho!"

Chi Miao: "..."

That's a really cheeky laugh; I copied it.

Chi Miao's expression hardened slightly as he surveyed the four towers, then he smiled and said, "Let's begin now."

"One hour... Putting everything else aside, breaking the record should be no problem."

These words startled the cow and bird standing nearby.

At this point, they still couldn't speak; they could only twist, jump, and hop.

Chi Miao closed her eyes.

A cow and a bird await.

As expected of Chi Miao! He immediately saw that they were worried that the opportunity would only come once and that they had to be well prepared.

The next second, Chi Miao spoke up: "Stop dancing. Let's refuse animal performances, starting with me."

The Sage's Way: "Exactly, exactly, and those square shoulders of yours, I don't even want to talk about them."

Niu Niu broke through the Great Defense directly. Unable to utter a sound, he cursed inwardly, his horns shoving into the air.

A cow has been slaughtered! A cow has been slaughtered! Is no one going to do anything about this?!

The Sage's Spirit spoke again: "If you intend to begin the trial now, take two steps forward and touch any of the towers to start the test."

Chi Miao flew as fast as the wind, directly hitting a tall tower.

It was at this time that...

In mid-air, an incredibly beautiful and complex array appeared centered on Chi Miao, enveloping her within it.

Golden numbers appeared above her head.

120: 00.

This means she only has 120 minutes, or one hour.

A voice fell:

"The Hidden Heaven Trial has begun. Challengers, please prepare yourselves."

"First, all the books learned during the Hidden Heaven Trial are distributed by the Black Tower itself, and participants cannot choose them themselves."

"Secondly, if you cannot comprehend the current book, you cannot switch to the next one."

"Third, learn as much as possible from the books to receive additional rewards."

Fourth, those who inherit the legacy are all destined to receive it, and the Hidden Heaven Trial promises not to erase the challenger's memories.

"The challenge will officially begin in three seconds, at which point the countdown will start."

Chi Miao couldn't help but sigh, "This Hidden Heaven Pavilion is quite interesting."

It's incredible that such an intelligent and human-centered array was created so many years ago.

Moreover, what all cultivators value most is inheritance. Those who are even slightly skilled will keep their techniques hidden and not pass them on to outsiders. In addition, the cultivation techniques collected in the Hidden Heaven Pavilion are all of the finest quality.

The fact that the Hidden Heaven Pavilion can hold open trials without erasing memories, allowing everyone to receive a chance here... one can only say the boss is incredibly generous!

Before the cataclysmic event, Miaohua Continent was indeed prosperous!

"Countdown begins!"

The moment the voice fell, the black tower in front of him threw a book that flew towards Chi Miao and finally stopped in front of him.

"Give Me Back My Meow Meow Fist," a low-level Earth-rank martial art.

Chi Miao: "..."

Wow, what an amazing name.

To be fair, the fact that the very first book was a low-level cultivation technique really surprised her.

In today's Miaohua Continent, even Earth-rank cultivation techniques would be considered the signature skills of some small sects!

As I always say, the boss is generous!

Chi Miao activated his golden eyes and gently touched the pages of the book with his fingers.

The cows and birds below were already heartbroken.

The first book is already at the Earth Rank, is it that difficult?

Fortunately, they were not qualified to receive the inheritance, otherwise they would have been imprisoned here for a whole hour.

Take a nap. Maybe when you wake up, Chi Miao will be done.

Just as the two were about to take a break, they heard a surround sound: "Huh???"

The source of this sound is the spirit of the sages.

Why are you suddenly making such a fuss?

But before they could react...

The sage's teachings were met with another exclamation: "No??!"

The sudden, startling movements of the sage's spirit finally drew their attention, and they looked in Chi Miao's direction.

You wouldn't believe it until you see it. The cow was so frightened that its mouth gaped open, and the bird was so startled that it forgot to flap its wings and fell straight down from mid-air, landing on its bottom.

I really like a quote from a cultivator from Miaohua Continent...

"ah????"

The cow and the bird both cried out "Ah!" in unison.

The camera pans to Chi Miao, and there...
